Chapter 601: Ling Tian City!
Editor: Modlawls123
Ling Chen brought Xuanyuan Dia Wu and Shadissika back towards the new city where Yun Meng Xin and the others were still waiting. Below, many of the players who had died had returned. They belonged to the Disillusion Alliance, Snow Moon Loulan, Battle Alliance, and Skyfall Dynasty. Evidently, they were worried that the Yan Huang Alliance and other attacking factions would attack them once again.
“What? Your... w-wife?”
Upon hearing Ling Chen’s introduction of Xuanyuan Dia Wu, everyone, no matter if they were male or female, cried out in shock.
Xuanyuan Dia Wu also froze in shock, but after looking at Ling Chen’s smiling face, she felt quite emotional, a look of intoxication in her beautiful eyes as every part of her body was filled with happiness. The awkwardness and worry from before completely disappeared in an instant... facing all of his friends, calmly smiling, and calling her his ‘wife’ was even more moving than the most beautiful words and promises. Ling Chen’s feelings towards her were completely true, and she was able to feel them completely.
From that single word, everything she had done and all of the pain she had suffered were all worth it. Even though we’ve been apart for 13 years, I’ll never give up on the promise we made back then. No matter when, no matter if it’s in heaven or hell, no matter if we’re at the end of the ocean or the edge of heaven, no matter what sort of snow and sea we have to traverse, as long as you’re there, I’ll be with you for the rest of my life.
“Wife... Wife... But... But... Big brother Ling Tian, you... how did you suddenly get a wife...” That word shocked the wits out of Xiao Qi, causing her to stutter as she felt some indescribable emotions from within her... and also, where did this ridiculously pretty girl suddenly come from?
“Wife... big brother Ling Tian’s wife...” Su’Er had woken up, and she was also sent into shock as she dumbly looked at Xuanyuan Dia Wu, who was looking at Ling Chen with an expression of bliss on her face.
Yun Meng Xin was also completely stunned, unable to say anything.
Even Li Xiao Xue was given a big shock, but she immediately gave a meaningful smile. After looking at Xuanyuan Dia Wu’s face, the haze within her heart disappeared as she smiled and spoke, “So you two knew each other long before this. If I remember correctly, that year, you were both only 9 years old, right?”
Xuanyuan Dia Wu looked at her in shock, wondering how she knew this.
“That’s right.” Ling Chen smiled and nodded. “Although we weren’t able to legally get married, and there were no official records, formal ceremonies, anyone to bear witness, or give their blessings, from then onwards Dia Wu was my wife... and she will be, forever.”
“Tian Ya...” Xuanyuan Dia Wu mumbled, her eyes becoming misty.
“9 years old... are you sure you weren’t just playing house? Heheheh.” Winter of That Year laughed. He wasn’t very familiar with Ling Tian, and it was his first time meeting him. As such, he didn’t know much about his history, so he naturally didn’t understand just how shocking it was for him to suddenly have a ‘wife’. He looked around and found that the atmosphere was quite strange. Yun Feng and Xiao Qiu Feng were both staring wide-eyed; Xiao Qi and Su’Er were completely zoned out with complex expressions as well as a slight trace of sadness. Even Yun Meng Xin had a strange expression on her face.
“Of course we weren’t just playing house.” Ling Chen shook his head as he looked at Xuanyuan Dia Wu. “Back then, I contracted the Isrock Disease...”
“Ahh!!” Ling Chen’s words caused everyone to cry out in shock. ‘Isrock’ was almost a synonym for the devil, and it was the most terrifying disease in the world.
Ling Chen continued, “... Back then, everyone cast me aside and avoided me, and locked me in a dark, iron room. Only Dia Wu... she brought me out from that room and tightly hugged me. She bound a red string around our fingers, vowing to become my wife and to be with me... in life and death.”
Hearing this, everyone’s heart trembled, and the way they looked at Xuanyuan Dia Wu completely changed. Even the slight hostility within Xiao Qi and Su’Er’s eyes disappeared and was replaced by awe, respect, gratitude, and goodwill. How many girls in the world could do such a thing? A girl like this should be pitied by the heavens and receive all the blessings in the world.
“S-Sorry...” Winter of That Year said in shame. He had just casually made a joke, but he felt that his joke had offended Xuanyuan Dia Wu’s sincere feelings.
“Big sister, you’re so amazing...” Xiao Qi said emotionally. “Isrock... Isrock... I know, the doctor must have misdiagnosed big brother Ling Tian, right? But if this big sister is your wife, why weren’t you together all these years? These years, you were...”
“After the night we became husband and wife, we were split apart... and only reunited today. It has been 13 years,” Ling Chen said as he smiled. He had spoken briefly, but no one could imagine just what the 2 of them had been through in the past 13 years. Luckily, the paths of their fates had brought them together again.
“Qi Qi, there’s something that your big brother Ling Tian didn’t tell you,” Li Xiao Xue said as she smiled. “You’ve seen this pretty big sister before. In fact, we all have not too long ago.”
“We’ve seen her before? I don’t think so.” Xiao Qi thought back, but she couldn’t think of where she had seen her before. With such beauty, anyone would not be able to forget her. Moreover, it was not just Xiao Qi, but everyone else also had a look of confusion on their faces as they tried to remember this girl.
Ling Chen looked at Li Xiao Xue and helplessly said, “Actually...mm, she’s the Sword Emperor.”
“Sword Emperor?!”
Everyone’s eyeballs almost fell to the ground as their expressions became comical.
This girl was the Sword Emperor who had shaken all of China, was famous worldwide, was cold and emotionless, who never spoke and only knew how to kill – the Sword Emperor who could break through tens of thousands of players?!
What sort of joke was this?!
Could this joke be any more ridiculous?!
When Xuanyuan Dia Wu showed her name, ‘Feng Xie Yu’, everyone felt as if their mind had exploded.
The treatment beautiful women received was always different. This was even more so when someone had immense status and power, not to mention the identity ‘Ling Tian’s wife’. No matter what sort of circle she entered, she would always be passionately welcomed. Xuanyuan Dia Wu’s status as ‘Ling Tian’s wife’ made Xiao Qi and Su’Er feel both admiration and jealousy, but once they found out she was the Sword Emperor, stars of worship appeared within their eyes. The invincible Sword Emperor, who had been at the top of the Heaven Rankings for so long, had actually been a woman – a woman who was only a few years older than themselves. This caused them to feel a sense of glory.
However, Su’Er felt a bit complicated. She had used her Heaven’s Secrets Eyes to look at the Sword Emperor’s true appearance before and saw a face destroyed by gashes and scars, which made her feel terrified. Now, seeing the incredibly beautiful Dia Wu, she couldn’t help but think to herself, “Looks like the Heaven’s Secrets Eyes isn’t foolproof.”
From the late action of the Yan Huang Alliance and the other attacking factions, it seemed that they had fallen into complete chaos and would not be able to attack again within a short period of time. Moreover, they had lost all dignity and reputation, and most of them were most likely scared out of their wits. Even if they had the ability to, they probably didn’t have the guts to attack again.
Li Xiao Xue took down the platform and asked the Fairies to take down the wall of vines. The group of people came to the gates of the new city, feeling the aura from the new city. Looking at the city they had protected, everyone felt the same throbbing in their hearts. Even the Skyfall Dynasty, which had originally planned to take down the new city, felt the same way... after all, the new city had been protected at the cost of their entire army.
“Yun Feng, Alliance Master Xiao, and the 3 Heavenly Kings, thank you all for your help and support. After the new city is completed, if you wish, there will always be a place for you here. We also welcome our friends Winter and Hundred Miles to stay in the new city. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed by what we have here.” Ling Chen said sincerely and with great confidence. This city had been constructed by the Dwarves, and it was very close to the Fairy Forest, which was filled with pure Nature energy. He could already see the future growth and development of the new city.
Yun Feng nodded, “I’ll move the entire Disillusion Alliance here. Since we’ve burned all of our bridges, the Disillusion Alliance will be leaving the Yan Huang Alliance. As for Long Tian Yun’s revenge... heheh, considering how long our Yun family has existed for, even if they wanted to do anything to us it wouldn’t be so easy.”
Xiao Qiu Feng looked at Xiao Qi and expressionlessly nodded, “The Battle Alliance will also come. Today, the Battle Alliance has completely left the Yan Huang Alliance.”
“This... We’ll ask big sister what she thinks.” Skyfall calmly said. Even now, he still did not know why Gu Qing Han had asked them so resolutely to protect the new city. What he needed to do now was to help the Skyfall Dynasty recover from its losses... Moreover, they could be annihilated at any moment. Thinking to there, he heavily sighed inwardly. Against The Sky and Judging Sky were feeling the same way.
Moving to the new city would further the new city’s fame and reputation, and would help the new city... that’s what it seemed like now. Not too long in the future, they would know just what sort of an honour it would be to move to this new city!
The new city’s development would greatly exceed anyone’s expectations.
“That’s right, Meng Xin, what’s this new city called?” Ling Chen turned and asked... that day, Li Xiao Xue had told him that the new city’s name was ‘Ling Tian City’, not ‘Meng Xin City’ or ‘Heart’s Dream City’. This caused him to feel quite moved. However, he wanted confirmation from Yun Meng Xin’s own mouth.
In just a short while, Yun Meng Xin, Xiao Qi and Su’Er had become quite close with Xuanyuan Dia Wu. The 4 girls were stuck together, talking and laughing with each other. They seemed incredibly close, as if they were sisters who had known each other for many years, making Ling Chen feel dumbfounded... before, he had sensed some hostility between the girls for an obvious reason. However, he could only act dumb, but in just this short period of time, they had become quite close... women were creatures that men would never be able to understand.
“Ling Tian City.” Yun Meng Xin replied as she looked at him.
“Shouldn’t it be called ‘Heart’s Dream City?’” Back when Ling Chen had given Yun Meng Xin the City Creation Token, he had mentioned that name.
Yun Meng Xin smiled, “I think that Ling Tian City suits it more. I hope that this new city, which has so much hope placed in it, can reign under the heavens like you and become one of the greatest existences in all of the Mystic Moon World. It won’t just belong to Heart’s Dream, but to all players.
Ling Chen gave her a deep look as a look of sincere admiration appeared in Li Xiao Xue’s eyes.
