Chapter 725: Chapter 726: The Wife Is Really Good
 

“`

Listening to Hu Zuo’s explanation, everyone fell into silence, the situation far worse than imagined.

The great dynasties were the major forces of the Central Origin Realm, with countless sects dependent on them, and experts as numerous as the clouds. The disciples in the Heavenly Immortal Realm were beyond their wildest dreams, considering that just reaching the Upper Realm through the Immortal Spirit Qi only brought one to the Human Immortal Realm.

There are three realms of the Immortal, Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, and Heavenly Immortal. If merely the disciples were this formidable, should a true powerhouse from the Upper Realm descend, the Immortal Spirit Continent would truly become a sitting duck, powerless to resist.

“Take him away, lock him up first!”

Liuren waved his hand and said. He had obtained quite a lot of useful intelligence; Hu Zuo still had his uses.

Scattered Immortals are known for fighting alone, being the old slicksters of the cultivation world. They must be privy to many secrets; in time, questioning him could deepen their understanding of the Upper Realm.

“Wait, there’s something else about the Immortal Spirit Qi! Just don’t lock me up, and I’ll tell you!”

Hu Zuo waved his hands frantically, hastily speaking.

“Speak!”

“I will arrange a room for you.”

Li Xiaobai said indifferently.

“Actually, the so-called descendants of the Upper Realm bringing down Immortal Spirit Qi is purely fictitious, a fabrication. Their real purpose is to seize this batch of Immortal Spirit Qi, which is why they chose a specific day when Immortal Spirit Qi is distributed to descend to the Lower Realm.”

“This way, they would have ample time to acquire it.”

Hu Zuo quietly dropped another bombshell.

“Isn’t there plenty of Immortal Spirit Qi in the Central Origin Realm? Why would they still fight for it?” Li Xiaobai asked, frowning.

“Because the Immortal Spirit Qi sent to the Lower Realm is special; although the amount distributed each time is small, it is purer than what is found in the Upper Realm.”

“In fact, speaking of the distribution of this Immortal Spirit Qi, I heard it from others. The Central Origin Realm has a similar situation where every hundred years, Immortal God Qi appears for consumption. Afterward, the leftovers, the crumbs, are sent down to the Earth Spirit Realm, becoming this Immortal Spirit Qi. Though it’s leftovers, the quality is still far superior to the Immortal Yuan within the bodies of Upper Realm cultivators.”

Hu Zuo spoke with a hint of fear, and for some reason, he seemed very afraid of Li Xiaobai, or more precisely, of the Heart of the Blood Demon within him. But he would never speak of this secret, for it was taboo in the Upper Realm.

“I see.”

Li Xiaobai nodded, obtaining quite a lot of vital information from Hu Zuo’s lips.

“Heh, looking at it this way, the Central Origin Realm and our Earth Spirit Realm aren’t that different after all. It’s just that the environment is better and the cultivation levels are stronger. In the end, it all comes down to the survival of the fittest,” the Kraken said, with a carefree attitude, no longer holding any reverence for the Upper Realm.

“Time waits for no one; we must sneak into the Upper Realm to find a solution before the real powerhouses arrive. In the end, only when we become stronger can we oppose these guys.” The old beggar was unusually serious for once.

“What should we do with this man?”

“Take him away!”

“Let’s go steal the Cultivation Technique tomorrow!”

…

Everyone went their separate ways, hurrying to the forces they were familiar with.

That night.

Li Xiaobai didn’t return to the Dragon Palace but chose to spend the last moments of peace with Long Xue.

“Husband, have I caused trouble for you?”

On a beach, Long Xue leaned on Li Xiaobai’s shoulder, looking quite forlorn.

Today, those who had dealt with Hu Zuo were the top experts of the Immortal Spirit Continent. Compared to the city lords, she was as good as nonexistent, just like a decoration, utterly useless.

In the eyes of ordinary people, she was already an eighth-layer Transcendence Tribulation Stage at a young age. But only after experiencing battles of that level did she realize how insignificant and powerless she was in the face of a real crisis.

“My dear, do not think too much. With your husband here, you won’t need to try so hard anymore!”

“Once we get to the Upper Realm, I’ll let you level up while lying down!”

Li Xiaobai said.

With a flip of his wrist, a brand-new Lamborghini appeared on the ground; this model could travel on both water and land.

“My lady, let me take you for a spin!”

Long Xue looked at the Steel Behemoth before her with puzzled eyes, as she had never seen such a mount before.

“Husband, what is this?”

“This, named Lamborghini, is a top-tier mount in the world, lightning fast, countless times quicker than using a movement technique!”

“Lan what base?”

“Lamborghini.”

“What base?”

“Lamborghini.”

“Lan what?”

“Forget it, just call it the little Steel Cannon.”

Li Xiaobai sighed, realizing that the cultivators of this world didn’t understand the name of the car. It was better to pick something easy to say.

“Oh, this little Steel Cannon looks quite striking!”

With Li Xiaobai’s guidance, Long Xue took the passenger seat, touching curiously here and there, looking like a curious baby.

Li Xiaobai buckled her seatbelt, and during this intimate skin contact, Long Xue felt her body soften and her cheeks redden, inwardly chiding herself for being so shameless.

Ever since they had become intimate a few times, her body seemed to have become extremely sensitive, and the thought alone was embarrassingly unbearable.

“My lady, this is called the fuel tank. If you put in enough top-grade Spirit Stones, it will start up, and it’s quite simple to operate.” Li Xiaobai threw a few top-grade Spirit Stones into the fuel tank, then started the vehicle, turning into a streak of light and speeding rapidly towards the sea surface amid Long Xue’s gasp.

“Husband, this mount is so fierce!”

“Such fast speed!”

Long Xue’s face was filled with amazement. She could never have imagined such high-speed travel in her life, and feeling the electric speed and the oncoming sea breeze, all her depression and worries seemed to be swept away.

This ride was truly exhilarating; the wild speed and the towering waves nearly made her heart jump to her throat, yet she found the experience immensely enjoyable. With her eyes tightly shut, a smile unconsciously formed on her lips.

This feeling was truly indescribable.

Suddenly, she felt a hand climbing over her body and couldn’t help but shiver. Opening her eyes, she saw that Li Xiaobai had reached out one hand to mischievously caress her cheek, wandering down.

“Stop it, focus on driving!”

Startled by his one-handed driving of the Lamborghini, Long Xue immediately slapped away the hand on her shoulder and chided him.

At such speeds, it was not the time to be distracted by other things; they could crash.

“Wife, I missed you,” Li Xiaobai said dryly.

“That’s not okay!” Long Xue flatly refused.

“Your husband is going to compete for the Immortal Spirit Qi tomorrow. The days ahead might be very tough. Today, I wanted to relax one last time, but it’s a pity that even this small request my lady won’t fulfill…”

“Then pull the car over!”

“I want to find some excitement…”

“Then don’t move, I’ll do it, you focus on driving!”

“My lady is so good…”
