Chapter 1643 - 1640: Cooperation!
Hearing Yanyu’s shout, Li Chen was somewhat taken aback.
Did he really have such a deep relationship with this girl?
"Li Chen, where is my Master?"
Yun Jian yelled, his eyes red.
"Yes, where is our Hall Master?"
The other disciples of the Cloud Dragon Palace echoed in unison with their inquiries.
Even though there wasn’t a single person on Fish Dragon Dance’s side, they all widened their eyes and looked at Li Chen, full of expectation.
Both sides were now waiting for Li Chen’s answer!
Time crawled by slowly as they waited, every second felt as long as a century.
Just like that, after countless centuries, Li Chen finally responded leisurely.
"Dead!"
"Dead?"
Hearing Li Chen’s reply, not only did Yun Jian and the others find it unbelievable, even those from Fish Dragon Dance were in disbelief.
After all, that was God Monarch Yunlong, the supreme ruler of this Star Domain. How could he die so easily?
Seeing that neither side believed him, Li Chen solemnly nodded and replied, "Yes, dead!"
Hearing Li Chen’s confirmation, Yanyu and the others still couldn’t believe it.
Yun Jian, in a fit of rage and shame, roared.
"You’re lying! My Master is invincible, how could he die?"
After his roar, he raised his sword, intending to kill Li Chen.
However, before the long sword in his hand could lift, Li Chen casually flicked his fingers.
In his Half-step Mahayana period, killing those of the same level was as easy as slaughtering chickens and dogs.
Now, having ascended to the Mahayana Realm, killing a Quasi Mahayana master like Yun Jian was even simpler than a piece of cake.
"Clang!"
The crisp sound of metal clashing burst out in the air!
The long sword in Yun Jian’s hand snapped on the spot.
"Pfft!"
Soon after, Yun Jian felt a sweetness at the back of his throat, and a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out into the air.
His eyes widened with rage, and the vitality within his pupils dissipated rapidly, like a falling star, becoming dim and lifeless.
In the moment of his impending death, he finally believed Li Chen’s words.
His master, God Monarch Yunlong, had indeed fallen!
Seeing Li Chen flick his finger and kill Yun Jian, all the disciples of the Cloud Dragon Palace were shocked, their mouths agape.
The only remaining elder, Zhou Zheng, sensing the dire situation, attempted to flee.
However, he was promptly discovered by Fish Dragon Dance.
"You old thief, where do you think you’re going!"
Zhou Zheng and Yun Jian had barely managed to fight on equal footing with Fish Dragon Dance.
Now, left alone, with no support and focused solely on escape, his fighting spirit was nonexistent. How could he be a match for Fish Dragon Dance?
After just a few exchanges, he was decapitated by Fish Dragon Dance.
Following the successive deaths of God Monarch Yunlong, Yun Jian, Zhou Zheng, and others, there was no longer any effective resistance from the Cloud Dragon Palace. In no time, they were massacred by the Fish-dragon Clan members full of hatred.
Fish Dragon Dance and Yanyu stepped forward and bowed to Li Chen.
"Thank you, Divine Lord, for your rescue!"
Li Chen waved his hand expressionlessly, saying, "I killed God Monarch Yunlong only because I had a grudge against him, not to help you. Therefore, you need not thank me!"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Fish Dragon Dance looked a bit embarrassed.
Yanyu sneaked a glance at Li Chen’s expression. When she saw his gaze, she quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes.
At this moment, her mind was swirling with thoughts.
She could never have imagined that the young man who once matched their strength could now slay the invincible God Monarch Yunlong, forcing the Heavenly Pride ancestor to bow his head.
Fish Dragon Dance smiled awkwardly and said, "Divine Lord Li, you’ve killed God Monarch Yunlong and destroyed the Cloud Dragon Palace. This Red Flame Star Domain rightly belongs under your rule. However, I have a presumptuous request..."
At this point, Fish Dragon Dance paused, observing Li Chen’s expression.
Seeing no sign of anger on his face, she slightly relaxed.
Li Chen took a look at Fish Dragon Dance and asked, "What do you want to say, feel free to speak!"
After a moment of pondering, Fish Dragon Dance pointed downwards and said, "This Cloud Dragon Palace was originally the Red Sun Sect, created by my master, the Chi Yan God Monarch. Now that God Monarch Yunlong is dead and the Cloud Dragon Palace no longer exists, I wish to revive the sect and pass on its legacy, fulfilling my master’s wishes from years ago!"
Li Chen smiled slightly and replied, "Reclaiming what belongs to your sect is only right!"
Hearing Li Chen’s answer, Fish Dragon Dance was taken aback.
She had prepared a long list of arguments and some top-grade magical treasures as equivalent exchange.
But never did she expect Li Chen to agree so readily, rendering all her previous preparations useless.
"You agreed?"
Fish Dragon Dance, still not quite believing her ears, asked again, half-skeptically.
Li Chen nodded with a smile and replied, "Of course, but I also have one condition!"
Hearing this, Fish Dragon Dance felt a sudden jolt in her heart.
Indeed, things were not so simple.
"What condition?"
Li Chen thought for a moment and replied, "The Red Flame Star Domain will be yours, but Blue Star will belong to me. I wish to find a place for my people to reside there."
Hearing this, Fish Dragon Dance was startled again.
Could it be that Li Chen wanted to devour the entire Red Flame Star Domain by a slow takeover?
However, Fish Dragon Dance quickly dismissed this thought.
Since Li Chen was able to kill God Monarch Yunlong, killing her would also be a trivial matter.
If he wanted to take over the entire Red Flame Star Domain, he wouldn’t need to go through so much trouble.
With this in mind, Fish Dragon Dance hesitated no longer and readily agreed.
Actually, Fish Dragon Dance was right.
If Li Chen wanted to take over the Red Flame Star Domain, it would indeed be an easy feat.
He aimed to align Earth and Greedy Wolf Star, the Twin Stars, into the orbit of the Red Flame Star, making them planets of the Red Flame Star.
After all, this was a complete Large Star Domain, with spiritual power far exceeding that of Greedy Wolf Star and Earth.
Moreover, he didn’t kill Fish Dragon Dance and take over the entire Red Flame Star Domain because he valued her Mahayana Realm strength.
In this way, if he were not around, having Fish Dragon Dance, a Mahayana Divine Monarch, in charge could prevent many unnecessary troubles.
With common interests, Li Chen and Fish Dragon Dance’s collaboration proceeded even more smoothly.
They even planned for deeper cooperation.
Li Chen promised to help Fish Dragon Dance sweep away all forces on the other four planets, except Blue Star, to unify the Red Flame Star Domain.
And Fish Dragon Dance promised to help Li Chen migrate Earth and Greedy Wolf Star into the Red Flame Star Domain’s orbit...
