My gorgeous wife Chapter 2316 - 2284: Audrey Hera’s Thoughts
Previously on My gorgeous wife...
"Listening to that kid curse you a bit, I should’ve been quite happy." Lieu Zhanxiao started, "But for some reason, I’m not feeling happy at all now."
Li Changcun sighed, "That kid just doesn’t want this old guy to accompany him to die."
"And you agreed just like that?" Lieu Zhanxiao asked, surprised, "I don’t think that fits your character at all?"
"What else could I do if I didn’t agree?" Li Changcun replied helplessly, "I know his character well enough. If I insisted on not agreeing, that brat would definitely stop me first, then throw me out and charge in alone."
Saying this, Li Changcun pointed to his seriously injured body, "I don’t think I’m in a state to counter that brat."
"As if you could defeat him at your peak." Lieu Zhanxiao sneered.
"So, what’s the plan now?" Lieu Zhanxiao asked puzzled, "Are you really just going to wait here like this?"
"Of course not." Li Changcun shook his head, "No father would hide outside while his son goes to die. I’ll recover outside first and then sneak in when I’ve healed a bit. But if someone dares to hunt me down, I don’t mind taking a couple down out here."
Li Changcun’s face showed a cold smile.
"I knew it." Lieu Zhanxiao rolled his eyes, "Your Li Family sure has a stubborn streak."
"Hey! If I didn’t have this stubborn streak, would you still be chatting with me here?"
...
In the Heaven Extinguishing Palace space, Li Chen’s cold gaze swept over one Ancient Ancestor after another. If anyone dared to block his way, he genuinely wouldn’t hesitate to go on a killing spree.
Even knowing there’s a terrifying enemy in the depths of the Heaven Extinguishing Palace, he didn’t want to expend too much energy, but if he had to act, it wouldn’t be a big deal.
As for the further Soul Realm and True Realm, they were even more afraid to approach this terrifying enemy.
The strength Li Chen had just unleashed not only scared the Ancient Ancestors but terrified those who hadn’t even reached the Palm Realm’s threshold.
Just a touch of those terrifying divine skills he unleashed could reduce them to dust.
They didn’t have the Palm Realm True Form Universe to protect them.
In the Heaven Extinguishing Palace for countless years, always proud of it, thinking they could look down on the Starry Universe, except the Holy Realm, they first realized the power of outsiders.
Finally, under Li Chen’s cold gaze, some Ancient Ancestors silently stepped aside.
Though he said nothing, his actions conveyed his thoughts.
He genuinely didn’t want to be enemies with such a terrifying guy anymore. If anyone had to die, let those deeper inside go to their deaths.
As the first one made way, other Ancient Ancestors followed suit.
Clearly, they all agreed.
They joined Heaven Extinguishing Palace seeking haven, not to die.
After the great battle until now, having lost so many people, everyone wounded, they felt they’d done enough. Surely those inside should put some effort?
There’s a saying ’people who don’t care for themselves are doomed by heaven and earth.’
Why should they go to their deaths while those inside reap the benefits?
With this mindset, the Ancient Ancestors began to clear the way.
Li Chen glanced around at the people, flashed forward, and dashed into the depths of Heaven Extinguishing Palace.
Earlier, Audrey Hera had secretly told him about the so-called ’Place of Suppression’.
The location suppressing Ancient Ancestor Snow Maple Ye Zhiqiu, also his mother, was beneath the deepest ’Extinguishing Emperor Palace’.
Also, Extinguishing Emperor Palace is the Heaven Extinguishing Palace Master’s residence!
After Li Chen left, the group watched his figure disappear into the depths of Heaven Extinguishing Palace, their expressions turned complex.
"Ice Wing Ancestor, if I remember correctly, you were watching the whole time." At this time, a discordant voice sounded, a somewhat unfriendly Ancient Ancestor looked at Audrey Hera.
"Indeed, Audrey Hera, you kept watching but didn’t act. That’s rather inappropriate, isn’t it?"
"Our Outer Palace has twenty-one Ancient Ancestors, united we stand, and eight have died now. For Ice Wing Ancestor to still stand aside truly chills our hearts."
Audrey Hera looked at the speakers, coldly chuckling twice, "Chills your hearts? Are you blind?"
"The first person that human Li Changcun approached was me, Audrey Hera. Before, I was fighting alone with him while you all watched, waiting until I was seriously injured before taking action. Don’t think I don’t know what you were thinking?"
"We didn’t expect him to be so powerful..."
"Alright, alright." Audrey Hera waved her hand, coldly smiling at the crowd, "Stop pretending, none of us are good people. Who do they think they’re innocent for? You just don’t want me to claim what’s left from the dead guys, right? I won’t take it! Feel free to divide it!"
The Ancient Ancestors looked at each other, eyes flashing with a peculiar light.
"Good! Haha, since Ice Wing Ancestor is so generous, we’ll gladly oblige."
After saying this, the Ancient Ancestors left in unison.
Audrey Hera stood on her broken palace, watching the departing group of Ancient Ancestors, her eyes growing increasingly disdainful.
If Heaven Extinguishing Palace is filled with opportunistic cowards who prey on the weak, then scheming during the final battle is merely a pipe dream.
What’s the final battle?
It’s a deathmatch that spares no survivors! Such timid folk would be the first casualties in the final battle.
These people would dare to pressure her only after the young man in the white robe left. If he had taken the dead’s wealth before leaving, these guys wouldn’t have dared to make a peep.
"Zhi Qiu’s child...his name is Li Chen." Audrey Hera’s eyes grew complex.
But soon, she became resolute again.
Looking towards the depths of Heaven Extinguishing Palace, Audrey Hera returned to her broken palace to start packing.
She planned to leave Heaven Extinguishing Palace!
After countless years in this dreadful place, she hadn’t improved her cultivation but had only learned about treachery and scheming.
She wanted to leave here, she wanted to go to the Starry Universe, to see her homeland, to see the vast universe.
That’s where she belongs.
Even in death, she’d rather die there.
She took a deep look towards the depths of Heaven Extinguishing Palace.
"Li Chen...may you be able to rescue Zhi Qiu. May you both...come through safe and sound."
