Stop it, Taoist, Your Fight almost Ruins the DAO!

The elegant woman picked up the spoon, blinked after finishing the last sip of the Eight Precious Calming Soup, and smiled coyly.

Unbeknownst to her, the embroidered shoes had already quietly slipped off beneath the table.

The atmosphere in the study changed in an instant.

——

"I am the Martial Ancestor who opened the heavens and the earth~"

"Who dares knock over my Pill Furnace~"

"You reckless fools, where are you? I'll scatter your souls and make you too afraid to walk at night."

The wild song echoed high above.

Driven by an urgency and utilizing his Teleportation Ability to the fullest, Yi Chen soon caught sight of the Golden Hall in the distance.

That was the Imperial Palace, the residence of Ying Si.

Yi Chengzi, Yi Chengzi, Great Qin National Master Yi Chengzi, once again steps into Sea Dragon City.

At this moment, he had reached the pinnacle of Breakthrough Limit Fifth Layer's strength, formidable enough to make hearts tremble.

Now that he had returned, Yi Chen immediately decided to first meet Ying Si.

Using some methods upon his return, he had learned about the extent of protection Ying Si had provided to his associates after his disappearance. The Millennium Emperor had acted rightfully without burning bridges, which pleased Yi Chengzi greatly.

Thus, the first stop upon his return was to visit Ying Si.

You show respect to me, and I show respect to you—it's a matter of politics.

It's about keeping the bureau chief in your heart, and the bureau chief keeping you on his agenda—a worldly wisdom.

No one could describe the ghostly speed of Yi Chen now.

This was still him being restrained in Sea Dragon City.

Swish~ Swish~ Swish~

Yi Chen glided causing a series of afterimages, squirreling into the city gate, gliding past the guards, through multiple halls of the Imperial Palace, and straight into Ying Si's study.

Swish~ Swish~ Swish~

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, open the door."

"I'm back!"

Yi Chen arrived in front of Ying Si's brightly lit study, picked up the Jin Huai knocker and rapped it loudly.

Out of respect, Yi Chen chose not to just barge in nor break through the defense spell outside the study using his potent spiritual power.

"National… National Master? Halt!!!"

"No, National Master, just wait a moment, I still have some official matters to handle."

Ying Si's voice sounded somewhat strange, and Yi Chen detected a trace of panic in it.

Snap~ and quickly, awo~

The light in the study went out.

Yi Chen: "????"

"What happened?"

"Is the affection gone?"

"I helped you pacify the Demon Realm, Your Majesty, you won't even meet me at the door, won't let me in? Just leaving me standing here? Damn it, I've just broken through to the twenty-fourth level of True Technique."

"You regard me as a brother, and you treat me like a fart?"

Yi Chengzi, Yi Chengzi, Great Qin National Master Yi Chengzi suddenly pulled a long face.

What bloody official matters are so important that you won't even let him in.

Two and a half breaths later, the study lit up again, and with a creak, the door opened. Ying Si appeared in front of Yi Chen with a smiling face, immediately putting an arm around Yi Chen's shoulder.

"National Master, when did you get back? Where have you been during this disappearance? You had me worried."

"In these troubled times, today is a day of double happiness, and I must have a drink with the National Master."

"Come, National Master, let's go to your Falling Dragon Mountain today, take a look at your Jianmu, my people have taken good care of it."

Ying Si, with his arm around Yi Chen's shoulder, began walking out, his smile somehow looking a bit strange.

Yi Chen's nose twitched. With his keen five senses and Spiritual Sense, he quickly detected a nearly imperceptible strange scent on Ying Si.

Understood.

Great Qin National Master Yi Chengzi instantly chose to be understanding.

It was his, Yi Chengzi's, rashness.

Ying Si had been careless, the cleanup was not thorough. As a formidable warrior within the ranks of Fish Dragon Dance, Yi Chen naturally understood what the strange pheromones he detected meant.

"Damn it, you old lecher, while I was fighting for life and death in the Demon Realm, you've been safe and sound here!"

….

….

On Falling Dragon Mountain, a Jinnan Square Table was set up on the huge branches of the Jianmu tree. Without Yi Chen needing to worry, dishes of Spiritual Meals flowed in like water.

"What? The four great Demon Lords of the Demon Realm have all perished, and now a great and fair warrior, the Fair Demon Emperor Jia Loulan, has taken their place?"

The first piece of news Yi Chen threw out made Ying Si's recently relaxed eyebrows furrow once again.

The Fifth Realm, what a domain it is, I fear even if the Great Five Elements Divine Machine Battle Puppet was completed and personally overseen by him Ying Si, they would at best cope for a while, and in the end, still meet defeat.

"Indeed, Your Majesty, this Jia Loulan, handsome and suave, wise beyond others, unmatched in masculine power, and what's more important, he gets along with me as well as one person."

"Even if one day the spatial barriers of the Fifth Realm all dissipate, the Demon Realm will no longer be an adversary of the Human Realm."

Seeing Ying Si's face nearly contort into an exaggerated comic expression, Yi Chen, with a smile, poured a cup of wine and pushed it towards Ying Si.

Boom!

The sky changed dramatically, lightning flashed and thunder roared.

Between the rumblings, the chopsticks Ying Si had placed on the desk suddenly fell.

"As good as one person, National… National Master, do you mean…"

"That's right~ just as Your Majesty is thinking~" At that moment, Yi Chen`s eyes shone like stars, and the unintentional aura he exuded exerted an immense pressure in Ying Si's heart.

"Your Majesty, have you quit drinking? Drink up~"

"So, the person sitting before me now, is he the Demon Realm's Holy Venerable Jia Loulan, or the Great Qin National Master Yi Chengzi, or someone else?"

"National Master, if you don't clarify, I dare not drink this wine." Ying Si looked at Yi Chen's formidable figure with a complex expression, glancing at the wine cup before him, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
