Chapter 1143 The Legendary Kingdom

Liu Yi had finally returned to the mortal realm.

He had been away for far too long—thirty years, as if a lifetime had passed.

Although only thirty days had elapsed in the mortal realm, for Liu Yi, it felt like an eternity.

Upon his return, he took a deep breath of the familiar air.

“Ah, still the same smoggy scent.”

Having been away for so long, Liu Yi felt a sense of nostalgia for everything. The celestial realm had an incredibly pleasant aroma, with birdsong and fragrant flowers filling the air. Such pristine and unpolluted air could no longer be found in the mortal realm.

Liu Yi checked his inbox and saw that it was filled with messages from his month-long absence. Most of the messages were from Murong Die, Wang Lele, and Wang Yuzheng.

After some consideration, Liu Yi decided to find Wang Yuzheng first.

He wondered how the movie had progressed in his absence.

Liu Yi called Wang Yuzheng immediately, and the call was quickly disconnected before being returned shortly after.

“Honey, where are you?”

Wang Yuzheng’s gentle voice came through the phone, “Why did it take you so long to call me? Did you get another assignment?”

“Yeah, a big one.”

Liu Yi couldn’t help but laugh, unsure whether he should tell Wang Yuzheng about becoming the Heavenly Emperor. He needed to find a suitable cultivation method for ordinary people as soon as possible, teach it to Wang Yuzheng and the others, and ensure his loved ones, including his parents, could attain immortality.

“Are you free now?”

Wang Yuzheng asked, “Can you come to Shanghai? We’re all here shooting the movie. Little Die and the others have also come to visit.”

“Oh? Murong Die is in Shanghai too?”

“Yeah, and Lele too.”

Wang Yuzheng laughed, “What do you think? Are you feeling lucky to have three beautiful women waiting for your affection?”

“Well… Lele doesn’t count, right?”

Liu Yi hadn’t revealed his relationship with Lele to Wang Yuzheng and the others yet, so he couldn’t admit it. However, he and Lele had already grown close, having experienced many things together. Liu Yi never expected that Lele had once been one of the Ten Heavenly Stems in the Qin Emperor’s palace. It would be a waste for such an innocent girl to be a villain.

“Honey, when are you coming to Shanghai?”

Wang Yuzheng said, “I was just filming. I took a break to talk to you. But if you come, I’ll skip filming today and spend time with you.”

“Alright, I’ll be there soon.”

Liu Yi laughed, “Tell me exactly where you are in Shanghai.”

“I’m at the filming site.”

Wang Yuzheng said, “Can you get here right away? If you can, I have a reward for you!”

“Are you sure?”

Suppressing his laughter, Liu Yi asked, “What kind of reward?”

“Um… What kind of reward do you want?”

“I want to do it!”

“Go, go away…”

Wang Yuzheng said shyly and indignantly, “Be serious…”

“True, after all, you’re mine sooner or later.”

Liu Yi chuckled, “Then let’s change the reward.”

“What do you want?”

“Play a trumpet for me!”

“You, just go die!”

Wang Yuzheng’s face was burning red on the other end of the phone.

Liu Yi, that scoundrel, dared to make such a request! It was absolutely outrageous…

“Huh, why are you angry?”

Liu Yi pretended to be puzzled, “I just want you to play the trumpet, the musical instrument. Didn’t I teach you a bit about music before?”

“Ah?”

Wang Yuzheng was stunned, “Just… just playing the regular trumpet?”

“Of course!”

Liu Yi declared solemnly, “What else did you think it could be?”

“No, nothing…”

Wang Yuzheng didn’t know what to say, her face flushed even more.

“Will you play the trumpet for me?”

Liu Yi pressed on.

“Alright… I actually do know how to play the trumpet…”

Wang Yuzheng felt her words sounded strange, while Liu Yi on the other side couldn’t help but bend over with laughter.

Wang Yuzheng grew angry and snapped, “Fine! You did it on purpose! I’m not talking to you anymore!”

“Really not talking to me?”

A voice came from behind Wang Yuzheng. She turned her head and saw Liu Yi holding his phone, smiling brightly behind her.

“You annoying ghost…”

Wang Yuzheng’s eyes welled up with tears when she saw Liu Yi.

She had missed him so much.

“Am I really that annoying?”

Liu Yi took a step back, “Should I leave then?”

“No!”

Wang Yuzheng immediately stepped forward and embraced Liu Yi, “Annoying ghost… let me hold you for a while… Hmm, I’m the first one to hug you, Little Die will be so jealous.”

Liu Yi suddenly broke into a cold sweat, thinking that even this needed to be ranked.

But Wang Yuzheng was always competitive, so it made sense for her to think this way.

“When will this movie wrap up?”

Liu Yi asked about Wang Yuzheng’s work progress.

“In three months.”

Wang Yuzheng said, “The scenes are all done, but we still have a lot to shoot. Making a movie is really hard… even harder than singing.”

“You’ve worked hard.”

Liu Yi patted Wang Yuzheng’s shoulder, “You need this to break into the Asian market. After this movie is over, I’ll help you get a role in a Hollywood movie.”

“Ah?”

Wang Yuzheng looked at Liu Yi with a seemingly aggrieved expression, prompting laughter from Liu Yi.

“Look at you, alright, after finishing this movie, I’ll give you a long vacation so you can have a good time!”

“It should be like this anyway…”

Wang Yuzheng pouted, “You don’t know… I’ve been so tired these past few days. But I took a day off from the director today. Darling, let’s go find Little Die and have fun together.”

“Don’t you want to spend time alone with me?”

Liu Yi found it strange, recalling that Wang Yuzheng used to be quite possessive of him.

“I can’t be that selfish.”

Wang Yuzheng said, “If you were always by our side, I think I could be a little selfish… but not now, you’re really busy. When we occasionally meet, I can’t keep you all to myself. I think if it were Murong Die, she wouldn’t be so selfish either.”

Wang Yuzheng’s words touched Liu Yi. What more could a man ask for with a girlfriend like this?

“I’m sorry…”

Liu Yi hugged Wang Yuzheng tightly.

“It’s not a problem, being by your side is wonderful.”

Wang Yuzheng said, “Let’s go find Little Die and give her a surprise.”

“What’s she doing in Shanghai?”

Liu Yi asked curiously.

“Blood Emperor fan meetup!”

Wang Yuzheng looked at Liu Yi and laughed, “Little Sister Die is the head of the fan club, so naturally, she has to organize these events! Actually, I really want to go too…”

“Why?”

“Because I’m also a fan of the Blood Emperor…”

Wang Yuzheng playfully winked at Liu Yi.

“What a nonsense…”

Liu Yi couldn’t help but cover his forehead, “Don’t forget, the Blood Emperor is your boyfriend!”

“Hehe, then I should admire him…”

Wang Yuzheng said coyly, “Back then, it was he who saved me several times… I haven’t properly thanked him yet…”

As she finished speaking, Wang Yuzheng raised her foot and gently kissed Liu Yi’s lips.

Liu Yi hugged Wang Yuzheng and kissed her deeply.

“Mmm…”

Wang Yuzheng was instantly moved, squirming in Liu Yi’s arms.

Liu Yi extended a hand and slipped it under Wang Yuzheng’s skirt.

His hand immediately touched Wang Yuzheng’s soft buttocks.

“Not here…”

Wang Yuzheng’s face was burning, and she whispered, “Later… find a place later…”

“Mm.”

Liu Yi wasn’t the type to think with his lower half, and he also noticed that there were other people around. He didn’t want to give them a free show.

“Let’s go find Murong Die, where is she now?”

“At the Shanghai Workers’ Stadium.”

Wang Yuzheng said, “Xiao Die is truly generous, directly booking the entire stadium as the venue for the event.”

“Of course, the Murong family is a wealthy conglomerate, especially since they’ve already emerged from their slump.”

The Murong family had experienced several downturns in the past, but with Liu Yi’s help, they managed to pull through each time.

“Let’s go to the stadium.”

As Liu Yi spoke, he placed a hand on Wang Yuzheng’s shoulder.

In the blink of an eye, both of them disappeared.

Meanwhile, in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean.

A gigantic devilfish slowly rose from the seabed. Atop the devilfish stood a man holding a metal trident.

The man’s appearance was strange; although he had a human form, he had gills beneath his neck.

Moreover, fish fins grew from his back, akin to small wings.

“Glub glub…”

The man expelled a stream of bubbles from his mouth, then rode the three-meter-long devilfish straight towards the depths of the ocean trench.

The devilfish seemed somewhat unwilling, but with a single strike of his trident, a strange telepathic force was released, affecting the devilfish. The devilfish immediately calmed down and continued swimming smoothly.

Before long, the devilfish arrived at the deepest part of the ocean trench. There, in the darkest depths, the outlines of a colossal steel city gradually emerged.

The devilfish carried the man into the steel city.

One section of the city’s walls was shaped like a massive beast. Seeing the devilfish approach, it opened its mouth wide.

As if a giant gate had been unlocked, the man swam inside.

The interior resembled a harbor, with the water drained clean. The man leaped out in a single bound, landing on the shore.

“Longsi, you’ve returned?”

A sentinel on the shore greeted the man.

“Yes, I must see His Majesty!”

Longsi replied.

“His Majesty has been waiting for quite some time.”

The sentinel said, “Enter through the Jump Gate!”

With a wave of the sentinel’s hand, a two-meter-tall gate appeared beside him.

“Long live Atlantis!”

He saluted Longsi, who returned the gesture, “Long live Atlantis!”

Longsi entered the Jump Gate and immediately traversed dimensions, arriving at another place.

There, a king clad in armor slept soundly in his chair.
