NOVEL WEB Chapter 733: 720 Yi Yi's parents are coming _1
"I've been secluded for ten days now, Xiaowu and the others must miss me terribly, it's time to go out!"
Chu Qin stretched lazily and left the place of seclusion, arriving at the Douluo Divine Realm.
"Huh, have I come to the wrong place?" Chu Qin said in mild surprise.
The Douluo Divine Realm of the past just had a bare gate, but now it was surrounded by city walls and a gate.
Not just in front of him, but the floating islands that originally made up the Douluo Divine Realm seemed to have been drawn together, forming a colossal city.
The city was enclosed by city walls that were a kilometer high, and astonishingly, they were entirely constructed of Divine Core Energy Crystals!
Just this wall alone must have used up at least five million Divine Core Energy Crystals.
Above the city gate, the words "Douluo Imperial City" were powerfully inscribed!
In addition, the top was filled with various God-King Level Soul-guiding Cannons, and there were many guards and commanders, standing in orderly ranks atop the city wall.
"Greeting the Great Emperor!" Upon seeing Chu Qin, the Town God Generals uniformly descended from the wall, came in front of him, and knelt saying.
"When did I become the Great Emperor?" Chu Qin said with a light smile.
"It was ordered by Lady Xiaowu. She said that you are now a Supreme God, one of the Cosmic Emperors, and since we have all become Divine Kings, calling you a Divine King no longer fits your status," the Town God General replied. When the Town God General spoke these words, there was an obvious excitement and pride in his voice, for in his past dreams he could not have imagined a day when he would become a main god.
Let alone, becoming a sovereign among Divine Kings.
"Oh, you've become a Divine King too, ha ha ha!" Chu Qin shook his head with a smile, "Where are Xiaowu and the others?"
"They should be in the Imperial Palace!" the Town God General replied.
"Alright, carry on with your duties," Chu Qin said with a smile to the people around him.
"Yes!" The response came loud and clear from the crowd.
With that said, Chu Qin walked towards the interior of the Imperial City.
The scene before him left Chu Qin slightly shocked again. The Douluo Divine Realm he remembered had almost vanished without a trace. In front of him now were magnificent buildings, adorned with countless Divine Core Energy Crystals and precious stones.
At the end of a road made of marble and Divine Core Energy Crystals stood a hall that was colossal to the extreme!
"Could it be that my seclusion wasn't just for ten days?" Chu Qin seemed to have an illusion.
"Lord Chu Qin!" At that moment, a graceful and spirited voice rang out. Across from Chu Qin, a vision of incomparable beauty and elegance with the air of an Empress appeared.
It was Xiang Li.
Today, Xiang Li was dressed in a white palace gown adorned with many diamonds, with a plunging neckline revealing a deep path.
"Xiang Li!" Chu Qin walked over with a smile.
"Paying respects to Lord Chu Qin!" Xiang Li immediately attempted to kneel to Chu Qin, but he caught her with a teleporting gesture.
"There is no need for kneeling between us! In the future, you need not kneel when you see me," Chu Qin spoke with an easy smile. Chu Qin would not forget that Xiang Li too had issued a Goddess Mission, but the Pixiu Secret Realm was too dangerous and he had not had the opportunity to talk with Xiang Li.
Upon hearing these words, joy bloomed in Xiang Li's heart, and she smiled sweetly at Chu Qin, "Yes, Lord Chu Qin."
"Xiang Li, have you also become a Pinnacle God King?" Chu Qin asked with a smile.
"Yes, all thanks to Lord Chu Qin's divine might," Xiang Li said very politely.
Chu Qin heard her and gently pressed down on Xiang Li's shoulders, looking into her beautiful bright eyes and raising an eyebrow, he said, "I've said before, there's no need for formality between you and me, and don't call me Lord Chu Qin."
"Okay... okay!" Xiang Li's heart had already started pounding when Chu Qin looked at her like that, and she replied with a shy tone.
"Hmm!"
As a charmer, Chu Qin, while looking at Xiang Li, guessed that she must have feelings for him, with about an eighty to ninety percent probability.
However, without absolute certainty, Chu Qin wouldn't make a move, especially since the current occasion wasn't quite suitable.
"Xiang Li, are you free tonight? I have something I need to ask your help with," said Chu Qin with a light smile.
"I'm free, and moreover, you can just tell me what you need, Chu Qin... I mean, you just need to instruct me!" Xiang Li quickly replied.
"Alright, see you tonight," Chu Qin nodded.
Xiang Li's heartbeat quickened even more, filled with anticipation. Did this mean she would get to spend time alone with Chu Qin tonight?
That was what she had always hoped for.
Seeing that Xiang Li didn't speak and appeared somewhat nervous, Chu Qin changed the subject, "Huh, I remember I was in seclusion for just ten days; how did you manage to make Douluo Divine Realm so impressive in such a short time?"
"It was Yi Yi!" Xiang Li replied, "Yi Yi's parents are coming to Douluo Divine Realm, and given the unprecedented development of Douluo Divine Realm, Xiaowu suggested that we make some changes, and everyone agreed."
"Yi Yi's parents are coming?" Chu Qin's voice held a trace of pleasant surprise.
"Yes," replied Xiang Li, "Yi Yi..."
"Chu Qin!" Before Xiang Li could finish, Qin Sijing, Luo Yiyi, Xiaowu, Gu Yuena, Bi Bidong, Xu Yichen, Xu Shi Yun, and others had already emerged from the palace.
"Aunt Si Jing, Chen'er, Yi Yi, Xiaowu, Dong'er, Na'er, Yun Er." Chu Qin immediately waved at everyone, gesturing for them to come over.
Xiang Li felt a twinge of disappointment but said nothing, while Xiaowu skillfully jumped straight into Chu Qin's arms.
"Xiaowu, what are you doing? You're already a Demi-Emperor, yet you're still acting like a child!" Chu Qin teased as he flicked Xiaowu's delicate nose.
"I am a child after all, only in my twenties! According to the age records by Yi Yi's sister and the others, a god is considered young if they've lived less than a century—I've lived less than one," Xiaowu said proudly.
"Why are you using Yi Yi's age records?" asked Chu Qin, unable to hide his annoyance.
"I don't care!" Xiaowu clung to Chu Qin's arm, declaring triumphantly.
"Yi Yi, are your uncle and aunt really coming?" Chu Qin asked, looking at Luo Yiyi.
"Yes, Grandpa Tianyun suddenly told me that my father and mother, along with the elders from our Luo Family, are all coming over!" Luo Yiyi nodded.
"That must be the Luo Family wanting to see what their son-in-law looks like," said Qin Sijing with an elegant smile.
"Perhaps..." Luo Yiyi replied, her head slightly lowered in shyness.
"Chu Qin, Yi Yi said her parents are Supreme Gods and were once leaders of the greatest force in the universe. I thought our Divine Realm looked a bit too modest before, so I decided to make some changes. How is it, not bad, right?" Xiaowu said, smiling proudly at Chu Qin.
"You call this a slight change!" Chu Qin shook his head as he looked at Xiaowu, "I almost thought I ended up in the wrong place, and with so many Divine Core Energy Crystals embedded, it looks like we're showing off our newfound wealth. What if her uncle and aunt think we're trying to flaunt it."
"No, Chu Qin!" Luo Yiyi interjected, "The splendor and scale of Douluo Imperial City can't even compare to one percent of the Luo Family." Luo Yiyi said, somewhat embarrassedly.
"One percent?" Chu Qin's eyebrow twitched, "You can't be using a Supreme Divine Artifact as a door, can you?"
"It seems... that's actually true! The Luo Family's main gate has an enchantment set on it, and at its core is the Supreme Divine Artifact 'Gate of Heaven and Earth'!" Luo Yiyi said, clearly embarrassed.
