"Ye Chen, let's go find Father first, let him drive away Linglong!" Long Chan glanced at Saint Linglong behind them and said.

"No need!" Ye Chen replied. "Linglong has some misunderstandings about me, but it's within a controllable range, no need to alarm Dragon Esteem!"

"But if Linglong wants to follow us to Earth, what if she causes trouble midway? How will we stop her?" Long Chan asked worriedly.

Linglong is a peerless human king, her cultivation has reached an invincible peak, able to face even a Great Saint with ease!

If such a person were to suddenly attack, they would have no defense at all!

Long Chan is highly vigilant and doesn't want to place herself in danger!

"Let Saint Linglong follow us for now as a free bodyguard. When we return to Earth, then we'll decide her fate!" Ye Chen pondered.

Linglong is a renowned Saint King, and the photos Ye Chen had were enough to keep her restrained, not daring to act rashly.

Besides, this journey to the forbidden zone is full of uncertainties, having such a human king for protection put Ye Chen's mind at ease.

"Ye Chen, you have so many women on Earth, have any of them had children with you?" Hu Baimei suddenly asked.

"No!" Ye Chen replied.

When Ye Chen left Earth, there was no sign of pregnancy from Zhang Xinlan, Su Binglan, or Liu Shihua, so it seems they weren't pregnant, right?

Moreover, the Ye Family's lineage was cursed, making it difficult for the family to have descendants, so Zhang Xinlan and the others had a low chance of conceiving!

"Since there are no children, I'm relieved!" Hu Baimei sighed in relief.

"Relieved about what?" Ye Chen asked speechlessly. "They didn't have children for me, and neither have you!"

"As long as they haven't, we can take our time!" Hu Baimei said.

"..."

"Shameless!"

The Kirin maiden walked in the frontmost, hearing their conversation, she shot them a look of disdain.

Ye Chen is the worst man in the world, and the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox is the worst woman, nothing good would come from these two being together!

However, even though the Kirin maiden was furious, there was nothing she could do about them.

...

"Ye Chen, what are you doing at the Longyue Sacred Ground?" Qing Luo asked suspiciously. "Are you looking for that little girl?"

The forbidden zone is far beyond the ten continents; to reach it, Ye Chen and the others need to cross several continents!

However, when passing through the Tianlong Divine Continent, Ye Chen surprisingly changed routes to the Longyue Sacred Ground, making all the women confused.

Why is Ye Chen at the Longyue Sacred Ground?

Could it be that before the farewell, he wanted one last hurrah, looting a sacred ground?

This idea was absurd, but Ye Chen was extraordinary, so it's not impossible for him to do such a thing!

However, Qing Luo guessed the reason because she remembered the girl, a girl named Xingmou!

"I'm going to see an old friend, wait for me outside!"

Ye Chen looked at the sacred ground before him, wanting to sneak inside to find the girl.

On the day Ye Chen became a Saint Heir, Xingmou went to Baihua Palace to observe the ceremony and recognized him as the Heavenly Emperor at a glance.

Ye Chen, left with no choice, promised her he would come to the Longyue Sacred Ground to find her!

This promise was originally far off, but Ye Chen, passing through the Tianlong Divine Continent, decided to come to Longyue Sacred Ground to fulfill it.

"Ye Chen!" Saint Linglong stopped him.

"What is it?" Ye Chen looked at Saint Linglong with a surprised expression.

Saint Linglong had been silent along the way, deliberately keeping her distance from him, so why suddenly stop him?

"The Longyue Sacred Ground is a superpower, its strength on par with Baihua Palace!" Saint Linglong reminded. "Sneaking in without permission might lead to misunderstandings, thinking it's a major enemy invasion, alarming the saints inside!"

The Longyue Sacred Ground is one of the top ten sects, its heritage unknown, and Ye Chen barging in would definitely be treated as a major enemy and suppressed!

Saint Linglong didn't care about Ye Chen's life and death! However, if the images Ye Chen possessed fell into other hands, it would bring disaster to her.

"I don't want to force my way in either, but how will I find someone if I don't enter?" Ye Chen said.

"You have the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox by your side, master of seduction. With just a flirtatious look, she can charm and manipulate!" Saint Linglong said. "Capture a disciple of the Longyue Sacred Ground, have the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox control their mind to summon the person you are looking for!"

Saint Linglong thought Ye Chen was overcomplicating things, as this matter was quite simple.

"..."

Ye Chen looked at Linglong twice, then extended his hand towards the distance.

"Boom!"

Almost instantly, a giant hand reaching the sky grabbed a male cultivator from afar.

"What the heck is this?"

This person was a disciple of the Longyue Sacred Ground, just returned from his adventures, and had not yet approached the sacred ground before being seized by a giant hand, scaring him out of his wits.

"Ah!"

The male cultivator let out a miserable cry, being grabbed by the giant hand and dropped through the clouds, landing in front of Ye Chen.

"Who are you people?" The male cultivator looked at Ye Chen and others with fear.

"Look at me!" Hu Baimei wasted no words, swiftly appearing in front of the male cultivator.

"So beautiful..."

Seeing Hu Baimei, the male cultivator could only let out a sigh of admiration before completely losing himself.

This person was just a Land God, and a glance from Hu Baimei was enough to captivate his mind.

"Do you know Xingmou?" Hu Baimei asked him.

"I do." The person, bewitched, had a somewhat blank expression, answering whatever was asked.

"Go to the sacred ground, find Xingmou, tell her someone is looking for her, and bring her here!" Hu Baimei instructed.

"Alright!"

"..."

Watching the male cultivator, who now resembled a zombie, the people present were stunned, looking at Hu Baimei with amazement.

The Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's bewitching skill was too strong, a mere glance could control someone's mind; it was terrifying!

"Ye Chen, what is your relationship with Xingmou, why are you here to find her?" Qing Luo asked.

"She's in love with me!" Ye Chen sighed.

"..."

Ye Chen confidently answered, leaving all the women immediately speechless.

"When I transformed into the Heavenly Emperor, I had a chance encounter with Xingmou..."

Ye Chen slowly revealed the story, mentioning his encounter with Xingmou, their acquaintance, familiarity, and Xingmou's feelings for him.

"To be honest, I never expected Xingmou to have such deep feelings for me!"

Though Xingmou and Ye Chen hadn't spent much time together, her profound love for him was startling even to Ye Chen.

"Matters of the heart cannot be predicted!" Qing Luo said. "When you first harmed me, I was filled with hatred, constantly wanting to kill you, devour your flesh, and drink your blood!"

"But that hatred didn't last long before I was conquered by your shamelessness!" Qing Luo said, feeling deeply.

"Qing Luo, even if you're confessing to me, you should be subtle, my godmother is listening!" Ye Chen responded smugly.

"..."

"Heavenly Emperor!"

At this moment, a beautiful silhouette swiftly rushed over, throwing herself onto Ye Chen.

A burst of fragrant wind greeted him, and a soft body was already in his embrace, stunning Ye Chen.

This was a graceful girl, with a beautiful face, especially her bright, clear eyes that captivated at first sight.

This girl was Xingmou!

"Heavenly Emperor, I knew you would keep your promise, I knew you would come to find me!"

Xingmou, unashamed by the presence of others, tightly held onto Ye Chen, as if wanting to merge with him.

"Alright, calm down for a moment, I have something to tell you!" Ye Chen gently pushed Xingmou away, speaking seriously.

"What do you want to tell me, have you agreed to marry me?" Xingmou asked with anticipation.

"..."

"Oh my, where did this little monster come from, even more proactive than me!" Qing Luo was startled.

"Indeed, very proactive!" Long Chan agreed.

"..."

"I have to leave!" Ye Chen said to Xingmou.

"What?" Xingmou's face showed disbelief as she processed Ye Chen's words.

"Is One Emperor truly your best friend? Is your homeland truly in trouble? Are those rumors all true?" Xingmou asked Ye Chen. She evidently knew of the rumors about One Emperor and Ye Chen's homeland being in trouble.

"Yes, all of it's true!" Ye Chen nodded slightly. "I'm here to bid you farewell because I must return beyond the heavens!"

"You really have to leave?" Xingmou looked at Ye Chen, her face full of disappointment.

"I've been away from home for a long time; it's time for me to go back!" Ye Chen sighed.
