"I knew you wouldn't tell the truth, but could you at least put some effort into your stories?"

Li Ziqing rolled her eyes even harder after hearing Chen Xiao's explanation.

"I knew you wouldn't believe me. If I had known, I would have just made up a story for you, like falling off a cliff and being taken away by an old immortal who forced me to become his disciple…"

Chen Xiao smiled helplessly.

"Are you saying that what you just said is true?"

Li Ziqing's eyes widened, her face showing an expression of disbelief.

Chen Xiao nodded but didn't say anything more.

Those who should believe will naturally believe, and for those who don't, no matter how much he explains, it will be in vain.

"I didn't expect your experience to be so magical."

Li Ziqing believed Chen Xiao's words and was shocked.

"So far, I've only told you."

Chen Xiao said lightly.

Hearing this, Li Ziqing was even more shaken inside, and she promised, "Don't worry, darling, I will keep this a secret forever and never tell anyone."

Chen Xiao smiled. In fact, he didn't care at all whether Li Ziqing would tell others.

And even if she did, others wouldn't believe it, and might even think she was mentally unstable.

In fact, Chen Xiao told Li Ziqing all this for a purpose.

He suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Ziqing, have you ever thought about cultivating with me?"

"Uh, this…"

Li Ziqing hesitated for a moment, "I really haven't thought about it. I'm already too busy with the company, how can I have the energy to cultivate?"

"You can never earn enough money, and with our current assets, we can squander them for several lifetimes. You can take some time off."

Chen Xiao persuaded.

"I understand the reasoning behind what you said, but you also know that apart from making money, I don't have any other skills. I don't want to be a useless vase by your side, completely dependent on you."

Li Ziqing lowered her voice, and then she added, "I hope I can help you, I hope my existence is valuable, I don't want to just hold you back."

Only then did Chen Xiao realize what Li Ziqing was thinking. He took her into his arms and said softly, "Silly girl, how could you hold me back? Have you forgotten? If you hadn't risked your life to block Xiao Li's attack for me, I might not be here today."

"I originally thought so too, that I saved your life, but after listening to what you just said, maybe even if I hadn't blocked for you, you wouldn't have died."

Li Ziqing shook her head and said helplessly.

What she said was true. Although Chen Xiao's strength had just awakened and wasn't very strong, he wouldn't have been killed by Xiao Li.

"Okay, wife, don't think so much. I've heard a saying that when couples are too clear about things, their relationship will come to an end. So I hope we will never be too clear about things, because I want to possess you forever…"

Chen Xiao hugged Li Ziqing tightly, his breathing gradually becoming heavy.

Li Ziqing felt the changes in Chen Xiao's body and her face turned red, she whispered, "You're so naughty…"

What followed was a passionate storm of love!

More than an hour later, Li Ziqing weakly collapsed on Chen Xiao's body, panting softly.

"I told you, you should cultivate with me. Look how weak you are now!"

Looking at Li Ziqing's delicate and weak appearance, Chen Xiao directly complained.

"You're such an insensible straight man!"

Li Ziqing was so angry that she twisted Chen Xiao's waist hard, "Alright, alright, I'll listen to you, I'll cultivate, okay?"

"That's right. After you've cultivated to a small degree, if there's anyone like Li Cun who doesn't know what's good for them and comes to trouble you again, you don't have to wait for me to help you, just slap them to death!"

Chen Xiao hoped that Li Ziqing would have the ability to protect herself when she encountered danger, after all, he couldn't always be by her side.

Moreover, he persuaded Li Ziqing to cultivate not only so that she could have the ability to protect herself.

Because sooner or later, Chen Xiao would leave this world and ascend to immortality.

Maybe he could control it to make that day come as late as possible, but that day would eventually come.

He didn't want to face separation at that time, and the way to solve this problem was to let Li Ziqing ascend with him.

Not only Li Ziqing, but also his mother, Liu Zhen, and maybe more people in the future…

In short, this was just the first step. First, he would persuade Li Ziqing to cultivate, and then he would gradually infiltrate the others, anyway, there was still plenty of time.

As for what cultivation technique to give Li Ziqing, Chen Xiao hadn't figured it out yet.

His mind stored too many cultivation techniques, as vast as the sea. With his relationship with Li Ziqing, he had to carefully select and find the most suitable cultivation technique for her.

In addition, Chen Xiao also persuaded Li Ziqing to move to Mountain and Sea First Grade (Shan Hai Yi Pin) to live, where the spiritual energy was abundant, and cultivation would be twice as effective with half the effort.

Moreover, there were many people there, making it safer.

Li Ziqing agreed and decided to move there that night.

With things settled, Chen Xiao packed up and left Li Ziqing's company.

At this moment, he received a message from Qi Tianhu that the bosses of the surrounding cities had arrived one after another, and the others were all on their way.

Chen Xiao went straight to Qi Tianhu without stopping.

He believed that it wouldn't be long before the people from the Underworld Palace (Ming Wang Dian) would arrive.

After all, Chen Xiao killed Li Cun, and Li Xun was probably already furious and rushing to Jiang City at full speed.

Chen Xiao saw many faces he hadn't seen for a long time, Han Jiuqian of the Wolf Gang, Liu Songqing of the Fierce Tiger Gate, Boss Wang, the leader of Jiangkou City, Liu Yan of Baling…

Later in the evening, when night fell, thirty-five underworld bosses from thirteen cities in Jiangbei had all arrived.

They gathered in Jiang City, and the scene could be said to be very grand.

Although the scene was grand enough, the atmosphere was not lively enough.

The bosses all looked solemn, their faces covered with a layer of gloom.

The arrival of the Underworld Palace made them all feel insecure.

They had already heard that this time the Underworld Palace had sent a full twenty Transformation Realm (Hua Jing) Grandmasters, vowing to sweep across the entire Jiangbei underworld!

They knew that Chen Xiao was very strong, but in their opinion, twenty Transformation Realm Grandmasters were enough to destroy the world. No matter how strong Chen Xiao was, he was probably in danger this time.

The bosses were all preoccupied and had their own agendas.

Although they had come, Chen Xiao could see that not all of them were on the same side as him.

Chen Xiao didn't care about this, because he wasn't familiar with these people in the first place.

Apart from Qi Tianhu, Han Jiuqian, and Boss Wang, whom he had interacted with, he was only meeting the rest of them for the second time today.

In short, this was just a rabble, and Chen Xiao didn't need them to be on the same side as him.

What Chen Xiao needed was for them to have enough awe of him!
