Chapter 1646 - 1643: Hua Yingluo’s Gratitude
Hearing Li Chen’s voice, which was as cold as that of a Death God, Bai Wuji involuntarily shivered, feeling a chill in his heart.
He instinctively stopped in his tracks, trembling all over, not daring to move a bit.
"Divine Monarch, I am not from this Black Star, nor did I participate in the looting of the Flower Sea, none of this has anything to do with me, nothing at all!"
Seeing Li Chen’s figure approaching step by step, Bai Wuji shuddered as he tried to defend himself.
Li Chen looked at the trembling Bai Wuji, sneered coldly, and asked, "I haven’t said it has anything to do with you, you don’t need to be so afraid!"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Bai Wuji’s heart skipped a beat.
Right now, his mind was like a swinging pendulum, up and down.
"I wonder what orders the Divine Monarch has?"
Li Chen didn’t answer Bai Wuji’s question but instead coldly asked, "Which star did you come from?"
Bai Wuji answered truthfully, "White Star!"
White Star is one of the five major planets of the Red Flame Star.
Regarding this, Li Chen was naturally very clear.
Li Chen asked again, "Besides you, are there any experts on White Star?"
Although Bai Wuji didn’t understand why Li Chen asked such a question, he still answered truthfully.
"No humans surpass me in skill, but there is an Ancient Great Evil called Chalk Dragon Turtle that cannot be subdued by anyone less than a Mahayana Divine Monarch!"
Li Chen nodded, keeping the Chalk Divine Turtle in mind.
Before relocating the Greedy Wolf Star and Earth to this Red Flame Star Domain, he had to suppress the forces of the other four stars besides Blue Star.
To prevent the tragedy of the Flower Sea from occurring again when he was not around.
After a moment of contemplation, Li Chen asked again, "What about Yellow Star and Red Star? Is there any expert garrisoned there?"
Through these few short conversations, Bai Wuji’s heart calmed somewhat and didn’t feel as tense as before.
"On Yellow Star, there is a Star Thieves force led by someone named Huang Lang, whose cultivation is quite ordinary, not even a half-step Mahayana, only a late-stage Divinity Transformation. However, they have a powerful totem called Weasel, with unfathomable strength that none of us dare provoke lightly!"
"On Red Star, it’s a sea of fire where a group of Fire Element Demon Beasts resides, the leader is said to be a Fire Phoenix, whose strength is very formidable, no less than that of the Chalk Divine Turtle!"
Upon hearing Bai Wuji’s introduction, Li Chen understood the power dynamics of the other three stars.
"Since you come from White Star, accompany me on a visit there first!"
Hearing that Li Chen wanted to go to White Star, Bai Wuji was stunned.
"What’s the purpose of visiting White Star?"
Before Bai Wuji could finish speaking, Li Chen’s unmatched gaze coldly glanced at him.
"Do I need to report my actions to you?"
Swept over by Li Chen’s sharp gaze, Bai Wuji shivered internally, quickly bowing his head and repeatedly saying he didn’t dare to question.
Of course, Li Chen didn’t directly take Bai Wuji to White Star.
Before that, he planned to send the Flower Elves back to the Flower Sea on Blue Star.
With a flick of his sleeve, Li Chen enveloped thousands of Flower Elves in a protective light, sending them toward Blue Star.
Bai Wuji, unable to leave on his own accord, had no choice but to follow along.
At that time, in the Flower Sea, the Flower Elves who had lost their homes were still crying in despair.
Seeing such a miserable scene, Bai Wuji couldn’t help but click his tongue, secretly cursing Jin Jiji and his cohorts for being excessively brutal.
Though he occasionally raided Blue Star.
Compared to Jin Jiji and others, he generally refrained from taking lives unless absolutely necessary.
Not to mention, committing the heinous act of annihilation like Jin Jiji.
When the surviving Flower Elves saw their abducted kin being rescued by Li Chen, they knelt to express their gratitude for the life-saving grace.
Thus, they once again embraced their fellow survivors, shedding tears that evoked sorrow.
Having just lost her beloved father and her essential home, Little Princess Hua Yingluo was at her most vulnerable.
Li Chen’s appearance undoubtedly brought a glimmer of hope and provided a solid support.
After offering Hua Yingluo a few comforting words, Li Chen left Blue Star and headed to White Star with Bai Wuji.
The distance from Blue Star to White Star is somewhat farther than to Black Star.
Approximately 560 kilometers, about 15 Earth-Moon distances, which is 5 Earth-Moon distances farther than to Black Star.
Of course, this distance is just a flick of the wrist for Li Chen.
However, Bai Wuji’s speed couldn’t keep up with Li Chen.
In deference to him, Li Chen had to slow down a bit.
Even so, they only took a little over half an hour to arrive at White Star.
At that moment, it was dusk.
However, the surface rocks of White Star were milky white and could glow, making the entire planet appear milky white and extremely beautiful.
"Divine Monarch, here is White Star!"
Seeing the familiar surroundings, Bai Wuji felt slightly reassured and said to Li Chen.
Li Chen glanced over White Star, expressionless, and asked, "Do you know where the Chalk Divine Turtle is?"
Bai Wuji nodded, replying, "Yes, I know. It’s in the northernmost part of the planet, in that White Stone Forest!"
Li Chen looked in the direction Bai Wuji pointed and said, "Alright, take me there!"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Bai Wuji showed a difficult expression.
He had fought against the Chalk Divine Turtle and knew well its formidable power. Not to mention seeing it, even hearing its roar would make him avoid it.
"Divine Monarch, that Chalk Divine Turtle is very formidable, especially at night when its energy is most abundant, we should wait until daybreak to go."
"Furthermore, I can take this opportunity to gather some manpower!"
After listening to Bai Wuji, Li Chen contemplated for a moment and said, "If that’s the case, let’s check out your base first!"
Li Chen was not afraid of the Chalk Divine Turtle; he simply wanted to use this opportunity to see Bai Wuji’s foundation.
He currently needed loyal helpers, so he might directly include Bai Wuji and others in his ranks.
Without capable aides, even trivial matters would require his personal attention, which was truly exhausting.
With Bai Wuji and his men under his command, he could avoid many unnecessary troubles.
Hearing that Li Chen wanted to visit his base, Bai Wuji dared not refuse, nodding his head in acquiescence.
