My gorgeous wife Chapter 2463 - 2431: Members of the Li Family

The war, after all, has erupted.

After a frenzied assault by the Doomsday Beast Soul, the invasion of the Era-Ancient Civilization has come earlier than expected.

Because the Era-Ancient Civilization seems to have noticed the anomaly of the Doomsday Beast Soul, they too launched their offensive ahead of schedule.

At the same time, they’ve realized they cannot allow the Starry Universe Civilization to continue its development unchecked.

The Minor Universe ultimately cannot compare to the Great Universe.

Especially in such a grand era like the Banquet Era, the cultivation environment of the Minor Universe perhaps isn’t even one percent of the Starry Universe.

This contrasting rise would mean allowing the Starry Universe to grow in power unchecked.

This made the Era-Ancient Civilization realize the war they were once determined to win may not be as easy as they imagined.

Especially after the Starry Universe began their ’counter-reconnaissance’, the success rate of the Doomsday Beast Soul abducting geniuses has plummeted by countless times, and even the Era-Ancient Civilization’s spies are being rooted out by this new counter-reconnaissance in the Starry Universe.

Sensing the crisis, the Era-Ancient Civilization decisively sounded the horn for an advance attack.

A terrifying war affecting one Great Universe and several Minor Universes has started.

Boundless Realm.

This was once the Borderland Realm, later renamed, and Lin Yi had someone refine the entire world into a treasure.

Except for a very few, no one knows what abilities this treasure, refined from one realm, truly possesses.

But now the Boundless Realm has become the headquarters of the Nether Army.

And the Nether Army is now the most powerful faction among all the military powers of the Starry Universe.

"Lord Yilin, reports from the front indicate that the Hundred Battles Cosmic City has fallen; the two Lords Dao Saint and twenty-one Ancient Ancestors all fell in battle. Of the total population of eight hundred and forty million in the Hundred Battles Cosmic City, less than a hundred thousand escaped..."

Hearing the voice coming from below the grand hall, the woman deep inside the palace softly trembled as she continued reviewing one jade slip after another.

"Continue."

"Era-Ancient Civilization is currently conducting multi-front combat operations, while cosmic cities like Celestial Phenomena, Aurora, and Taici Cosmos also suffer attacks..."

The Cosmic City is a product of the Banquet Era, meant for providing a suitable communication platform for more powerful cultivators.

The starry sky is too vast, the Ancient Battle Realm is unsuitable for long-term survival for cultivators, and the Four Great Realms are separated by great distances; thus, the existence of multiple cosmic cities.

Similarly, each Cosmic City would have powerful figures stationed there.

Because these cosmic cities not only serve as platforms for powerful individuals to communicate but also as war fortresses built by the Starry Universe for future conflicts.

Yet now, a cosmic city has fallen just like that.

She spent over eighty million years and still can’t adapt to the feeling of lives disappearing like meaningless numbers.

"Indeed, am I still not suitable to be a decision-maker?" After dismissing the reporting guard with a wave, Lin Yi gently rubbed her white forehead, feeling inexplicably sorrowful.

Those who died were all vibrant lives!

As she silently left the hall, Lin Yi casually discarded her luxurious gown, changed into plain clothes, and went to the rear of the palace.

There stood an elegant pavilion.

With measured steps, Lin Yi slowly ascended the pavilion.

The speed was slow, as if each step carried some unique emotion, influencing one’s state of mind.

A while later, Lin Yi reached the top of the pavilion.

At the top of the pavilion, there was nearly nothing, somewhat empty.

...Except for a transparent stone coffin crafted from Crystal Stone.

Lin Yi slowly walked to the stone coffin, quietly gazing at the sleeping figure inside; her sharp eyes softened.

"Over eighty million years."

"Since you left, this much time has passed, without a word; do you truly plan not to return?"

"If you truly died, just be completely gone! Why leave us with just a glimmer of hope?" Lin Yi’s face was filled with sorrow.

To outsiders, she was incredibly strong and unmatched in wisdom. Nothing seemed to unnerve this immensely wise Lord Yilin. Yet no one thought that this Lord Yilin was ultimately a woman, and one whose husband had been missing for countless years, cautiously managing all the assets her husband left.

The Nether Army could achieve its scale today, thanks to her greatest contributions.

Lin Yi extended her hand, touching the face inside the Crystal Stone Coffin identical to Li Chen’s.

Since Li Chen disappeared, a wisp of soul from this body completely vanished.

Yet, deep within the depths of this body, a subtle seed, dim to the point of nearly invisible, had never extinguished.

This faint seed, even back then, went unnoticed by them.

Not until receiving the news from the Taoist Saint of the Three Pure Ones, after careful examination, did they discover it.

It was precisely the existence of this faint seed that convinced Lin Yi that Li Chen was truly not dead.

He was still alive, somewhere unknown to her.

"With your personality that even won’t spare your sister-in-law, surely you’ve attracted lots of women out there, right?" Gently caressing Li Chen’s face, Lin Yi did not have a trace of resentment, only endless longing.

"No matter what you’ve done outside, here remains your home."

"You are, after all, the head of this family!"

"Come back soon, Li Chen; I’m truly so tired, so weary."

Retracting her hand, this extraordinary woman, parallel in reputation in the Starry Universe with Ming Meng Dao Saint among the Twelve Saints, silently leaned against the Crystal Stone Coffin... and fell asleep.

After a long time, a figure slowly emerged from the shadow of the pavilion.

A young man in plain clothes stood beside Lin Yi.

Standing silently for a while, the young man stared at the Crystal Stone Coffin for a moment before turning away.

"Mom, rest assured. Dad will definitely come back; he is the greatest hero in the eyes of you, me, elder brother, Yilin, and the aunts. I believe as long as Dad is alive somewhere, he will surely return."

"Definitely."

Exiting the pavilion, the young man subtly departed the palace and Boundless Realm without anyone noticing.

Outside the dimensional gate of Boundless Realm, several people quietly waited.

One person, with a saber at his waist.

One person, with a Black Sword on his back.

One person, with a spear in his hand.

One person, stepping on Thunder Lightning.

And a girl, silently standing to the side, eyes full of profound worry.

"Big brother, Uncle Ning, Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhong." The young man in plain clothes approached them, speaking softly.

The four nodded in unison.

"Second brother." At this moment, the girl beside him also looked at the young man, equally filled with concern.

"Yilin, didn’t I tell you not to come?" The young man in plain clothes looked at his sister, involuntarily frowning.

"I..." Li Yilin pressed her lips; even though she had become a powerful Ancient Ancestor at the Peak of the Heaven and Earth Realm, she still feared her brother. Since their father’s disappearance, elder brother stayed the same, but second brother seemed entirely changed.

"Since everyone’s here, let’s prepare to set off then." At this time, the youth with the saber at his waist spoke.

"They invaded us to destroy a Cosmic City; hence we’ll go out... and annihilate their entire Universe!!" In the eyes of the Netherworld, a crimson gaze glowed.
