14: Chapter 14: Just Be My Husband

"What?" Li Qing thought he had misheard.

【Is there something wrong with Luo Qiongyan?】

【Instead of trying to save your original body, why are you going crazy here?】

Li Qing couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"He knows again." "How does this person know my original body is in trouble?" A glint of light appeared in Luo Qiongyan's eyes.

"Could it be that this person can calculate heavenly secrets?" "Ever since the path to immortality was severed, no one in this world has been able to calculate heavenly secrets. This child must not be let go." Luo Qiongyan looked at Li Qing with burning eyes.

【What is going on? Why does Luo Qiongyan look at me like she wants to eat me?】

"Senior Brother, stop blabbering in your head." Hearing his inner voice, Mu Qiuxue couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

"I want to marry you. Did you hear clearly this time?" Luo Qiongyan smiled sweetly.

To everyone else, this scene was simply inconceivable.

Luo Qiongyan was a King Sealing Realm Expert from the Incense Burning Immortal Valley. She had severed all ties to love throughout her life and had never been heard to give any man a kind look. Today's scene was truly too bizarre.

It completely subverted everyone's perception.

"Why?" "Why do all the beautiful women revolve around him?" Seeing this, Gu Beichen was burning with rage.

"Li Qing, I will kill you." Gu Beichen stared coldly at Li Qing.

"Good Opportunity." Seeing this, Qian Yichi's eyes flashed with light. His figure turned into an afterimage as he rushed toward the bronze palace.

"Hum." Suddenly, a terrifying Dao rhythm erupted from the Void Realm.

"Not good." "Someone has entered the bronze palace." Li Qing's expression changed drastically as he grabbed Mu Qiuxue and took a step forward.

Divine Ability: Shrinking the Ground to an Inch. He covered a thousand feet in a single step.

"This is... the long-lost movement Divine Ability: Shrinking the Ground to an Inch." Seeing this, Luo Qiongyan's pupils constricted slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Li, wait for me." The Yin Yue Saintess immediately used her movement technique, her figure turning into a brilliant stream of light.

"Interesting. You can calculate heavenly secrets and know a lost movement Divine Ability. I am becoming more and more curious about you." Luo Qiongyan smiled, looking bright and moving.

With a slight sway of her delicate body, she disappeared from where she stood.

"Eight Desolations... Nirvana... Annihilation." A dreamlike voice sounded between heaven and earth, as if traveling through time and space, shaking the ages.

Li Qing turned his head and saw a huge black hole appearing with the bronze palace as the center, constantly devouring the Void Realm.

【Damn, as expected of an immortal. Even an attack from just a remnant thought has such power.】

【The only ones in this world who can survive such an attack are the cheating children of destiny.】

"Is this an immortal?" "Just an attack from a remnant thought can destroy the world." Luo Qiongyan's eyes revealed shock.

The black hole was like a black sun, constantly expanding and spreading outward until it reached a critical point and slowly disappeared.

"So scary. If it weren't for Senior Brother, I would probably be reduced to dust." Mu Qiuxue looked at the apocalyptic attack, a trace of lingering fear in her eyes.

"What kind of person is Fellow Daoist Li? Why does he know so much?" "Where does that sense of intimacy he gives me come from?" The Yin Yue Saintess was filled with curiosity.

"Senior Brother, there shouldn't be anyone left by the bronze palace. I want to go back and find an Opportunity. Will you accompany me?" Mu Qiuxue looked at Li Qing with eyes as bright as stars.

【No one, how is that possible?】

【I don't know about others, but Gu Beichen must be alive.】

【This bastard is a child of destiny; he's the last person who would die.】

"child of destiny?" Luo Qiongyan's expression stirred.

So what if he is a child of destiny? For hundreds of years, she had seen countless Prodigies with Luck like a Dragon, yet none of them had ever ascended to become a Great Emperor.

Clearly, Luo Qiongyan regarded Gu Beichen as an ordinary Prodigy with good Luck.

"Let's talk when he can ascend to the position of Great Emperor." Luo Qiongyan did not take him to heart.

【However, the immortal corpse has a predestined connection with this bastard, and I have a feud with him. If I can ruin this Opportunity for him, it should be quite interesting.】

【So what if he is a child of destiny? I have a System. If I want to achieve Immortal Ascension, I don't need to be on good terms with him.】

【Let's do it. Let's make things difficult for this child of destiny.】

"The immortal corpse actually has a predestined connection with a child of destiny." Luo Qiongyan was shocked.

Her original body was already a Great Emperor and had once been a person with soaring Luck, but as time passed since becoming an Emperor without achieving Immortal Ascension, her Luck began to wane, and she was eventually trapped in a desperate place.

Her original body had no choice but to use a supreme Divine Ability, risking severe injury to let a wisp of her soul descend into the mortal world to seek and share the Luck of heaven and earth to bolster her original body. However, man proposes, heaven disposes; the Luck obtained by the Clone was pitifully small, only enough to let her original body survive, but unable to escape.

"This person's Luck can actually reach such a level that he has a predestined connection with the immortal corpse."

"This is probably beyond the so-called Prodigies with Luck." "But so what? If you don't become a Great Emperor, everything is empty." Luo Qiongyan's thoughts turned rapidly.

"Alright, Senior Brother will accompany you." Li Qing nodded slightly.

"I will go take a look too." The Yin Yue Saintess chimed in.

Immediately, the three of them moved toward the bronze palace. Seeing this, Luo Qiongyan followed slowly behind.

Not long after, the group of four appeared near the bronze palace.

The bronze palace still stood majestically; such a terrifying attack had failed to damage it in the slightest.

【Tsk tsk, if it weren't for the brain-dead author's flawed early settings, this bronze palace wouldn't have appeared so early.】

"Haha, the greatest Opportunity in this Return to Ruins is finally mine." A wild laugh came from inside the bronze palace.

A disheveled figure looked greedily at the female corpse floating in the hall. It was Gu Beichen.

【This bastard really didn't die.】

"Fellow Daoist Gu, aren't you happy a bit too early?" Li Qing flicked his sleeve and pulled Mu Qiuxue into the bronze palace.

Inside the bronze palace, purple Qi flowed, looking extremely miraculous.

"This purple Qi..." The moment the Yin Yue Saintess followed them in, she suddenly walked to a corner and sat cross-legged to begin absorbing the purple Qi.

【Not bad. This purple Qi is the treasure for you to Awakening the Crimson Sun Profound Immortal Body.】

【As expected of one of the female protagonists, her Opportunity is just good.】

【On the contrary, Luo Qiongyan, according to the original plot, should be dead by now.】

【Although she knew the female corpse in the hall had a remnant thought, she didn't know it was an immortal female corpse. Although she tricked Qian Yichi, she died herself because she didn't leave, getting herself killed.】

"What?" "I died?" "How is that possible? Am I not alive and well..."

"No, I only survived because of him. This child's inner voice has all come true one by one. Heavenly secrets, heavenly secrets... Perhaps my original body's path to survival lies with him."

Luo Qiongyan's beautiful eyes instantly shone like stars.

"How is it possible? Li Qing, you didn't die?" Gu Beichen looked surprised when he saw the four of them.

If he hadn't been carrying a heavy treasure, there would have been no possibility of surviving such a terrifying attack.

"Surprised? Unexpected?"

【According to the original plot, only Gu Beichen and the Yin Yue Saintess survived here.】

【Male and female protagonists, you know how it is.】

【As for Mu Qiuxue, she didn't even make it here.】

"Li Qing, is it? Since my original body's path to survival might lie with you, then just be a good husband to me, Luo Qiongyan."

A smile appeared in Luo Qiongyan's eyes, beautiful and soul-stirring.
