My gorgeous wife Chapter 2226 - 2194: Time Flies Like a Shuttle

The two of them embraced, and Lin Yi looked at Li Chen’s sharp, well-defined face.

As for this husband of hers, she knew him very well. Her luck could be considered good; when she had just stepped into the Heaven Realm, she was picked up by a Sect, then eventually ended up with Grandma Wuhua, and in the end was brought to the Borderland Realm.

Everyone she met were good people.

All these years, Lin Yi had also repaid kindness with kindness. She gave a great deal of help and convenience to the Sect that had picked her up back then, as well as to the master who had once saved her life.

As for matters conveyed from the Borderland Realm, even the Star Lord Ji Feize didn’t dare slack off. Now that small Sect on the Earth Prison Star Continent was flourishing in every respect.

As for Grandma Wuhua, Lin Yi also had people send a message: anyone who wanted to touch Grandma Wuhua would have to get past her first.

Compared to her own good fortune, what Li Chen had gone through—he hadn’t told her everything, only part of it.

But Lin Yi was very clear that all these years, Li Chen, all alone, must have had a very hard, very bitter time of it.

But this man was just like that; he liked to keep everything buried in his heart, bearing it all by himself, not wanting others to share his hardships.

"Why are you always this silly? Some things—would it be so bad to say them out loud?" Lin Yi said softly.

"I’m used to it." Li Chen smiled. "The more you know, the more weight you carry. I’m the pillar of the family—if I don’t hold up this sky, who will?"

Lin Yi turned her head away. "Idiot."

"Idiot it is then." Li Chen shrugged. "Who told you to pick an idiot like me for a husband?"

Lin Yi was silent for a while, then spoke softly: "Let’s have a child."

"Alright." Li Chen nodded without even thinking.

In the past, he hadn’t been willing to have children because even he didn’t know when something might happen to him, so he didn’t dare.

Now that things had settled down, Li Chen also felt it was time to have a child.

Even the Netherworld had reminded him that he should have his own bloodline.

...Otherwise, there might not be any Time again.

...

For High Grade cultivators, the higher the cultivation, the higher the level of life, and the more difficult it was to have descendants. But once they did have descendants, that child would definitely be an extraordinary Genius.

Especially with Li Chen’s current strength—if he had a child, and it happened right as this Banquet Era arrived, it was likely a heaven-defying Monster Genius would appear.

From then on, Li Chen no longer went into Closed-door Cultivation, but stayed in the Borderland Realm, occasionally giving pointers on cultivation problems to some younger Martial Artists, and helping Lilith and the other two with the Fusion of their new bodies so they could begin cultivating.

Just as Li Chen had expected, the three of them were in bodies personally refined by him, born with all Meridians fully open, which was extremely advantageous in the Early Stage of cultivation. It took less than ten years for them to go from nothing straight up to the Heavenly Level.

During this period, Ning Wangyang also took advantage of Li Chen coming out of seclusion to secretly hold his wedding.

The reason it was called "secret" was because this wedding was held on the Star Land of Heavenly Might; only people from the Palace of the Nether King and a few of Li Chen’s friends attended.

Most likely this guy had been scared by that terrifying scene at Li Chen’s wedding back then and decided to keep things extremely low-key.

Otherwise, with Ning Wangyang’s current cultivation of Entry-Level Celestial Venerable and his fame in the Borderland Realm, plus the name of Li Chen’s sworn brother, it would definitely have been another grand occasion.

At the wedding, Li Chen saw Ye Tu and his wife and couldn’t help asking, "Where’s Xinxin?"

Hearing Li Chen mention this, Ye Tu wore a helpless look. "That damn girl gets wilder the older she gets. We can’t keep an eye on her anymore, so we just let her be. Around twenty-some years ago, she snuck off on her own, saying she was going to roam the Jianghu."

As they were chatting, they happened to see a young girl appear at the gate of the residence, and beside her walked a distinguished-looking young man.

After two hundred years apart, Ye Xin hadn’t changed much; compared to the innocent girl from back then, she had gained a trace of steadiness. Her cultivation had already reached the Fourth Order Domain Realm. The young man beside her was also quite extraordinary, already at the Fifth Rank Domain Realm.

"Dad, Mom, I’m back." Seeing them, Ye Xin hurried over and threw herself into Yu Yueying’s arms—the latter had just widened her eyes in anger—and in an instant, Yu Yueying’s fury was extinguished.

"It’s good that you’re back." The couple had been full of resentment, but when they saw their daughter return, it vanished in a heartbeat.

"Ah, Uncle is here too." Seeing Li Chen, Ye Xin seemed a bit surprised.

Li Chen smiled and looked at the young man beside Ye Xin. "What’s this, Xinxin, not going to introduce your friend?"

"Greetings, seniors." The young man stepped forward and bowed politely. "This junior is Ning Wujie."

Ye Tu and his wife had rather strange expressions as they sized up this youth who called himself Ning Wujie. Vaguely, there was already a hint of scrutiny in their gaze.

Ye Xin stood to the side, too embarrassed to speak. Judging from her expression, she seemed a bit nervous.

Li Chen, however, just smiled and ruffled Ye Xin’s hair. "Alright, Xinxin, take your friend around. Since he’s here, he’s a guest. Oh, and don’t forget to congratulate your Uncle Ning."

"Got it, Uncle." Ye Xin smiled sweetly at his words and immediately pulled the young man away.

Watching Ye Xin grab the young man’s hand so openly, the couple’s gazes grew even stranger. They were veterans of this sort of thing and very clear on what that kind of gesture meant.

"I thought that kid seemed fine before—how come now I suddenly feel like punching him?" Ye Tu bared his teeth.

Li Chen laughed. "Don’t meddle in the youngsters’ affairs. The children and grandchildren have their own blessings. You think it’s still the old days? We’re already over two hundred years old—down in the Lower Realm we’d be ancestor-level figures. Are we really not going to allow our children to fall in love freely?"

"Boss, easy for you to say when it’s not your daughter." Ye Tu turned his head toward Li Chen, his jaw aching.

"I’ve always treated Xinxin as my own daughter." Li Chen blinked. Over these years, the Red Dust Heavenly Palace had frequent contact with this side. Although Li Chen spent most of his Time in Closed-door Cultivation, he had always kept an eye on Ye Xin’s cultivation.

"Boss, that’s just you talking from a high horse. Say that again when you have kids of your own." Ye Tu smacked his lips, speaking with disdain.

Li Chen chuckled. "Don’t worry—soon."

Ye Tu froze.

The boss really plans to have a child?

...

In a flash, another hundred years passed.

Two women arrived in the Borderland Realm. Now that the Four Realms could travel back and forth and no longer viewed each other as enemies, the two women easily found the Borderland Realm and took the initiative to say they had come to see the Red Dust Heavenly Sovereign.

The powerful cultivator guarding the gate didn’t dare to be careless and directly led them to the Red Dust Heavenly Palace.

Standing outside the Red Dust Heavenly Palace, the two women both revealed looks of excitement. "Teacher!"

Li Chen appeared. Seeing the two women, he smiled. "Chi Han, come out and pay your respects to your two senior sisters."
