My gorgeous wife Chapter 2225 - 2193: Life Is Never Perfect
Previously on My gorgeous wife...
Li Chen nodded and looked at Zhang Lu: "But Senior Nether River also mentioned that because the time for reincarnation is too long, it is not easy to find them. However, it can be confirmed that they are probably still in the Heavenly Realm and have not reincarnated to the Lower Realm."
"Thank you!"
Zhang Lu cupped his hands towards Li Chen and turned to leave.
"What are you going to do?" Li Chen asked.
"Go find her!" Zhang Lu said solemnly: "Even if it’s just to see her one more time, I will search the entire Heavenly Realm if necessary!"
"Wait a moment." Li Chen furrowed his brows and pondered: "Try describing the person you are looking for. No need to mention appearance, as no one knows how they look after reincarnation. Describe some unique traits, and I will try to get someone in the Borderland Realm to help find them. If there’s any news, I’ll inform you immediately."
Zhang Lu pursed his lips, looked at Li Chen, and said solemnly: "I owe you a favor."
"My favors are not easily owed." Li Chen smiled: "In the future, repaying this favor might not be so easy."
Zhang Lu didn’t waste words, and after providing a description, he left his contact information and turned to leave.
"Take care!" Before leaving, Zhang Lu cupped his hands towards Zhang Shutong: "Thank you for your companionship all these years, I owe you a favor too."
"Between friends, there’s no such thing as owing favors." Zhang Shutong smiled calmly.
It wasn’t until after Zhang Lu left that Li Chen looked at Zhang Shutong.
This guy was also transformed from a Doomsday Beast Soul, but in certain ways, he was more akin to a cultivator of the Starry Universe. And up to this point, he had been labeled a traitor by the Doomsday Beast Soul.
"I plan to stay here with you. After all, I’m close to breaking through to the Ninth Order, so I’m also getting ready to find a place for closed-door cultivation." Before Li Chen could speak, Zhang Shutong smiled and said: "I suppose your large palace won’t mind having one more person to feed, right?"
"You are welcome." Li Chen smiled and gave Zhang Shutong a hug.
Li Chen waved to a passing guard.
The guard with Domain Realm cultivation immediately ran over to Li Chen, his face showing some excitement and zeal.
After all, this is the Red Dust Heavenly Sovereign!
It was because of this lord that he traveled countless distances from the Heavenly Realm to the Borderland Realm and then to Tianyu City to join the Red Dust Heavenly Palace.
"Please help find a good place for rest and closed-door cultivation for this gentleman." Li Chen said.
"Yes, I will heed Lord Red Dust’s decree!" The Domain Realm guard replied respectfully.
Li Chen patted the guard on the shoulder: "Relax your state of mind while cultivating, being too tense can hinder a breakthrough."
The guard’s eyes lit up, and he again respectfully said: "Thank you, Lord Red Dust, for your guidance!"
"Let’s go." Li Chen waved his hand and then left the Red Dust Heavenly Palace alone, walking towards another nearby palace.
The Great Fool Heavenly Palace.
Just standing at the entrance made Li Chen feel a bit nervous.
Sometimes marrying too clever a wife isn’t necessarily a good thing.
Most of the time, Lin Yi understood Li Chen’s thoughts without him having to say anything and directly responded, which often left Li Chen feeling quite embarrassed.
Like before leaving closed-door cultivation this time, Li Chen found Lin Yi, and without a word, Lin Yi directly threw the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk at him.
"Go, do what you want to do."
This made Li Chen feel touched, yet he couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty.
As he arrived at the door of Lin Yi’s study, Li Chen was just about to knock when a voice came from inside.
"Come in."
Li Chen smiled wryly, rubbed his face, and pushed the door open.
"Wife, how did you know it was me?" Li Chen grinned as he looked at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi looked up and rolled her eyes: "The sisters never come to my study, and the palace guards tiptoe when they walk. Besides you, who else would wander around so aimlessly?"
Hearing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but give a dry laugh: "That’s just me proudly striding, easy to recognize."
Lin Yi put down a few Jade Slips in her hand and rolled her eyes again.
"Hey, hey, hey, wife, mind your attitude. I am still your husband. Give me some face, okay? No married couple should greet each other with eye-rolls, right?" Li Chen said somewhat helplessly.
Lin Yi tapped her finger on the table: "You’ve only been married a few years, and you went into closed-door cultivation without a word, and for two hundred years at that. Did you think about how I’d handle the sisters every day?"
Li Chen clammed up, knowing he was at fault.
"Didn’t I listen to you and greet everyone when I came out of closed-door cultivation?" Li Chen mumbled quietly.
Seeing Lin Yi about to glare again, Li Chen quickly flashed beside her, lifted her onto his lap, and smiled apologetically: "Wife, wife, don’t be mad. It’s my fault, my fault."
"Glad you know." Lin Yi snorted lightly.
"Well, uh..." Li Chen suddenly said a bit sneakily: "I saw a new trick in a book recently. Shall we try it tonight..."
"Didn’t I burn all your little yellow books?!" Lin Yi glared.
"Well... hahaha!" Li Chen chuckled dryly: "A mischievous guard insisted on giving it to me..."
Lin Yi almost wanted to slap the rascal to death, but as her hand paused mid-air, she couldn’t bring herself to do it, and just let the scoundrel have his way.
Her breathing became slightly more rapid involuntarily.
"Stop fooling around, we’re still in the study!"
"What’s wrong with the study? Isn’t the study more exciting?" Li Chen’s lewd chuckle came through.
Before long, rustling sounds filled the room.
After a long while, Lin Yi, blushing furiously, leaned into Li Chen’s embrace, no longer having the energy to scold this bastard, and softly asked: "How did the revival go?"
"It was successful." Li Chen nodded, his body relaxing considerably on the fur-cushioned long chair: "It’s just a pity there were only three Nine-leaf Resurrection Flowers."
"You’ve done your best." Lin Yi reached out to touch Li Chen’s face, looking at her man with indescribable deep affection in her eyes: "You’ve often said that life can’t be perfect. You’ve done great."
Li Chen didn’t respond.
"What about the old man?" Li Chen suddenly asked.
Earlier, when he came back, he instinctively used his Divine Sense but found that Li Changcun seemed not to be around. Before Li Chen went into closed-door cultivation, Li Changcun had already moved to Tianyu City.
Lin Yi knew the ’old man’ Li Chen referred to was Li Changcun, and her father was also brought to the Heavenly Realm at their grand wedding back then.
In this life, perhaps the greatest fortune for the old man is having two daughters like them. With the help of a large number of pills and great supplements, they had forcefully elevated his cultivation to the Heavenly Level.
However, for someone without much talent in cultivation and who’s not very diligent, barely reaching the Heavenly Level is almost the limit.
"He... left the Borderland Realm fifty years ago, and hasn’t responded to anyone’s contact since. But before leaving, Dad said not to look for him." Lin Yi slowly said.
"I understand." Li Chen nodded again, falling into silence.
