My gorgeous wife Chapter 2267 - 2235: Li Chen’s Wish

At the beginning of the Banquet Era, in the two hundredth year, the first batch of Palm Realm powerhouses from the Era-Ancient Civilization descended upon the Starry Universe.

They were slain by the Red Dust Heavenly Sovereign and numerous powerhouses outside the Demon Realm.

After this battle, the Demon Realm once again went into hiding. The Demon Ancestor powerhouses continued to lurk within the Demon Realm, and the Demon Emperor Sargeras chose to go alongside Suan Tian to the Holy Realm, not only to persuade the Holy Realm powerhouses but also to find an opportunity for his own breakthrough in the Palm Realm.

After the battle with Behemoth, Li Chen parted ways with him and disappeared into the depths of the Starry Universe. No one knew where he went.

Bringing a large group back to the Borderland Realm, Li Chen couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

He and Behemoth remained adversaries, and he also wanted a decisive battle to end grudges, allowing grievances to dissipate in death.

Li Chen even saw the intention of Behemoth’s fatal resolve in his eyes, believing that if he slew Behemoth, Behemoth would have no further complaints.

However, a pressing threat of Era-Ancient Civilization hung above, and the World-Destroying Beast was about to revive. The Doomsday Beast Souls were restless, so instead of killing Behemoth, it might be better to let this somewhat foolish guy take out a few more enemies.

Additionally, in his current state, Li Chen indeed had no power left to kill Behemoth.

At this time, despite Li Chen’s frightening Realm, his physical condition was quite disastrous.

The head of snow-white Long Hair hadn’t recovered even upon returning to the Borderland Realm.

When Li Chen saw his wives, Lin Yi insisted on dragging her sisters away, sulking for several days without speaking to him.

Li Chen didn’t mention it, but he knew they were distressed.

They were also upset that he always put his life on the line, completely disregarding their feelings.

After nearly half a month of recuperation, Li Chen finally managed to mostly repair the cracks akin to porcelain on his body and went to find his sulking wives who were staying in the Great Fool Heavenly Palace instead of returning to the Red Dust Heavenly Palace.

"I’m sorry."

Upon seeing his family sitting in a living room, absent-mindedly chatting, Li Chen smiled and said the first words upon returning to his family.

The atmosphere in the room, already not very warm, instantly cooled down further.

An Qin wanted to speak but stopped.

Wang Qianqian pursed her lips, looking at Li Chen, with tears glistening in her eyes.

Yang Xin seemed to want to step forward but was stopped by Lin Yi’s gaze.

And Lin Xiaoxiao was also held down firmly by Lin Yi, unable to rise.

"This time, it was my fault, I indeed shouldn’t have kept it from you." Li Chen didn’t mind the women’s attitudes, speaking softly: "But I promise that if anything similar happens in the future, I will definitely tell you first."

Lin Yi, hearing this, fell silent.

The future.

Clearly, such incidents cannot be prevented; as the threat of Era-Ancient Civilization and the World-Destroying Beast draws near, they are inevitable.

Li Chen, as one of the strongest in the entire Starry Universe, cannot escape facing such matters.

The initial wish from the Lower Realm, where they’d only guard each other for decades and grow old together after a hundred years, had already changed due to differing positions and circumstances.

Looking at Li Chen’s head of unrecovered white hair, Lin Yi felt more heartache than anyone else but was the least able to express it.

"You are not only a Martial Artist, a powerhouse and leader, but also a husband and father." After a long time, Lin Yi finally spoke softly.

"I know." Li Chen nodded, smiling gently: "I promise you, no matter what happens, I will strive with all my might to survive."

Only at this point did Lin Xiaoxiao finally give in, tears broke, and she was the first to rush to Li Chen, tightly hugging his neck and crying.

Li Chen smiled, embracing several women who had accompanied him for years one by one.

"Rest assured, we will all survive. Even if the Starry Universe is gone, I will make sure everyone... survives." Li Chen kept this promise in his heart.

Heaven-Shrouding Realm!

Never had there been a moment when Li Chen more longed to enter that world-creating Heaven-Shielding Realm.

In the past, he was more passive, informed that he was the one the Supreme had favored, with rare hope of entering the Heaven-Shrouding Realm from the Starry Universe.

And he simply possessed immense power, not wanting his loved ones to be harmed, hoping to be a good family head, shielding his loved ones from the storm.

But now, he had to consider more than just that.

He must consider an escape plan.

If the Starry Universe truly reaches its end, what then?

Not only seeking an escape route for the beings of the Starry Universe, but also for his family.

Heaven-Shrouding Realm.

Perhaps this is the only method left.

"This time, we wiped out several Era-Ancient Civilization guys at once. I think, in a short time, those guys probably won’t enter the Starry Universe again, after all, entering takes quite a toll." Li Chen spoke of his experiences, during the arrival of the Four Great Palm Realms, he vaguely saw people in the passage who couldn’t come out.

Those who disappeared in the passage might also be Palm Realm.

Evidently, sending Palm Realm powerhouses into the Starry Universe was not an easy task.

Before the great decisive battle arrives, Era-Ancient Civilization likely won’t exhaust themselves in such endeavors again.

Even if sending powerhouses in to hunt them, they will be extremely cautious.

At least, temporarily, there’s no need to worry too much.

"This period, let’s travel." Li Chen suddenly proposed.

"Travel?" The women were all surprised.

"Yes, travel." Li Chen chuckled: "For years, everyone has been confined to the Borderland Realm. Though the Borderland Realm isn’t small, you’ve all explored it over the centuries, right? This time, how about exploring some fresh places?"

The women instinctively looked at Lin Yi.

They didn’t mind, the key was that Lin Yi had numerous affairs to manage in the Great Fool Heavenly Palace daily.

Lin Yi hesitated, then looked at the two children sleeping in her arms and then at Li Chen.

Ultimately, Lin Yi nodded, agreeing.

"I can temporarily hand over matters of the Great Fool Heavenly Palace to others. I’ve nurtured some talented individuals over these years; it’s time to give them space to show their abilities." Lin Yi found a flimsy excuse.

Li Chen chuckled, not exposing her behavior.

"By the way, the two little ones haven’t been named yet, it’s time to give them names now, isn’t it?" Li Chen contemplated, touching his chin.

To be accurate, he had been thinking about names for the little ones for a while but never decided.

Even leaving the Borderland Realm, he hadn’t figured it out.

Until now, they only had nicknames.

"Let’s name the boy Li Haoheng and the girl Li Yilin, how about that?" Li Chen smiled.

Yilin represents the city where Li Chen first began as a Martial Artist.

Hao, symbolizes the sun, moon, stars, and sky, representing his heartfelt hope for the Starry Universe’s eternal survival.
