696: Return to the Starfield of the Gods

Early the next morning, Yang Lingchen brought Chen Xueqi back to the Lingchen Divine Kingdom.

“Xueqi, welcome to our big family,” Ouyang Yunmeng said with a smile.

“Xueqi, we are all family from now on, so you don't need to be too reserved,” Dongfang Yunbing said.

In truth, Yang Lingchen's women were all somewhat aware of the emotional entanglements between him and Chen Xueqi.

“Thank you, sisters,” Chen Xueqi said, giving a slight bow.

“We are all sisters here, no need for formalities,” Li Xinyi said.

Seeing that the women were getting along well, Yang Lingchen also breathed a sigh of relief.

In the following days, Yang Lingchen traveled throughout the entire Divine Realm, visiting all his friends and relatives and informing them of his upcoming departure from the Divine Realm.

To Yang Lingchen's surprise, almost all of his relatives and friends chose to leave with him.

This was because everyone knew that only by following Yang Lingchen would they have a bright future; if they remained in the Divine Realm, their cultivation level would at most reach the Cosmic God Realm.

If they followed Yang Lingchen, their future would hold infinite possibilities.

On this day, in the palace of the Lingchen Divine Kingdom, Yang Lingchen set up a Teleportation Array connected to the Realm of the Gods and gathered all his relatives and friends together.

Yang Lingchen planned to settle these people in the Archaic Star Domain. After all, the Archaic Star Domain was now under his control, so their safety would absolutely not be an issue there.

After taking everyone into the haotian jade space, Yang Lingchen entered the interstellar Teleportation Array.

This interstellar Teleportation Array bore Yang Lingchen's Soul imprint. With his current cultivation level, no one else could activate it, so he wasn't worried about people from the Realm of the Gods infiltrating the Divine Realm.

Returning to the Archaic Star Domain, Yang Lingchen released everyone and had Mu Xiya arrange for all his relatives and friends to stay at the Tianchen Imperial Palace.

Of course, Yang Lingchen spoke clearly to everyone: since they had joined the Tianchen Imperial Palace, they had to abide by its rules. They could not ignore the palace rules or do anything to violate them just because they had a good relationship with him.

In response to Yang Lingchen's instructions, everyone expressed their commitment to follow the rules and Cultivate diligently.

After settling the matters with his relatives and friends, Yang Lingchen gathered all his women and children together and introduced them one by one.

“Father, I have so many brothers and sisters! That's great! Now I'll have people to play with me,” the youngest, Yang Yunshang, said in a babyish voice.

As the daughter of Cang Qingyue and Yang Lingchen, Yang Yunshang was the youngest, only a little over five years old this year.

“Auntie Yunshang, shall I play with you?” A cute little girl, also about five years old, stepped forward.

This little girl was named Yang Xinran, the younger daughter of Yang Tianjun and Zhou Sihan.

“Xinran, here, this is a gift from your auntie.”

Seeing a girl about her own age calling her 'Auntie,' Yang Yunshang was incredibly excited. She quickly took out a gift and gave it to Yang Xinran.

“Thank you, Auntie Yunshang!” Yang Xinran took the gift and quickly thanked her.

“Tianjun pays his respects to his aunts.” Yang Tianjun, being the most clever, brought his wife Zhou Sihan and directly bowed to Mu Xiya and the other women.

“Good child. Take this Heavenly Demon Sword and Profound Ice Armor as gifts from your aunt,” Mu Xiya quickly brought out two Secret Treasures and gave them to Yang Tianjun and Zhou Sihan.

“This is Divine Spirit Milk; it will be very beneficial for your cultivation. Consider it a gift from your aunt,” the Wan Qianqian sisters also took out gifts for Yang Tianjun.

“This is a teleportation talisman. If you encounter danger, just crush it, and it will take you back instantly,” Dong Xuanji also brought out a gift.

Subsequently, Zhou Ruobing, Cang Qingyue, Snow Heartless, and Summer First Snow also presented their gifts one by one.

“Thank you, aunts!” Yang Tianjun was beyond excited and quickly put the gifts away.

“Yunfeng, pay your respects to your aunts.” Seeing this, Yang Yun peak also reacted instantly and followed suit with a bow.

“Greetings to our aunts.”

Yang Yunchan, Yang Yunxian, Yang Yunlong, and the others also reacted quickly, bringing their wives and children to bow to Mu Xiya and the others.

Mu Xiya and the other women were also very happy to give out gifts.

Seeing this, Yang Lingchen finally felt at ease. He then introduced his parents to the women.

The family got along harmoniously, and no schemes or infighting occurred.

Yang Daolin and Su Wanyun were also overjoyed with their new daughters-in-law.

In the following days, Yang Lingchen stayed in the Archaic Star Domain to accompany his wives and children.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Yang Lingchen finally decided to head to the Gods Star Domain. After all, he had been away for over half a year and didn't know the situation there. If Huang Tianchi attacked, Xiao Qingxue and the others might not be able to hold him off.

After bidding farewell to his family, Yang Lingchen boarded the Teleportation Array to the Gods Star Domain.

He wasn't worried about his family's safety; the Archaic Star Domain was now completely under his rule, and with the Wan Qianqian sisters guarding it, safety was not a concern at all.

When Yang Lingchen returned to the Gods Star Domain, the sky was a blood-red color. It was clear that the Gods Star Domain was currently in an era of rampant warfare.

“Lingchen, you're finally back.” Seeing Yang Lingchen's return, Xiao Qingxue and Lin Shiyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“What's the situation now?” Yang Lingchen asked in a deep voice.

“Huang Tianchi has come out of seclusion. He first destroyed the Di Mo Palace, then subdued the Zixiao Palace and the Haotian Immortal Palace. Now, most of the forces in the Gods Star Domain have submitted to him,” Xiao Qingxue said with a slight frown and a grave expression.

“Zixiao Palace has submitted too?” Yang Lingchen asked, frowning.

“Yes. Except for the Zixiao Palace Old Ancestor who escaped, everyone else has submitted,” Xiao Qingxue continued.

“What about Xueying?” Yang Lingchen suddenly had an ominous feeling and asked quickly.

“Xueying disappeared along with the Zixiao Old Ancestor,” Xiao Qingxue said. “But you don't need to worry too much. The Zixiao Palace Old Ancestor's strength is unfathomable; with Xueying by his side, she should be safe.”

“If even the Zixiao Palace Old Ancestor is no match for Huang Tianchi, then just how strong is that guy?” Yang Lingchen fell into deep thought, his expression becoming incredibly solemn.

One had to know that the Zixiao Palace Old Ancestor was the publicly recognized number one expert of the Gods Star Domain! If even he was not Huang Tianchi's match, it showed that the opponent's strength had reached a whole new level.

“Don't worry. No matter how strong he is, if the few of us join forces, we still have a chance to defeat him,” Lin Shiyin comforted him gently.

“How is the war progressing at the moment?” Yang Lingchen asked.

“Huang Tianchi is currently busy suppressing the major forces. It shouldn't be long before he makes a move against us,” Lin Shiyin said.

“Qingxue, Shiyin, gather all the elites as quickly as possible. I plan to take the initiative and strike first,” Yang Lingchen said in a low voice.

In his view, rather than waiting to be attacked, it was better to strike first; that way, there might still be a chance for survival.

Otherwise, once Huang Tianchi integrated all the forces, it would not be so easy to launch a surprise attack.

“Actually, we had the same idea, but we didn't implement it because you hadn't returned,” Xiao Qingxue said.

Subsequently, Xiao Qingxue and Lin Shiyin gathered all the elites under their command.

That night, Yang Lingchen took everyone into the haotian jade space and quietly left the Yaochi Divine Dynasty.

His current plan was simple: use a surprise attack to test Huang Tianchi's true combat power, and after determining the opponent's strength, launch the final general offensive.

Yang Lingchen wasn't worried about his own safety. With his current strength, even if he couldn't defeat the opponent, if he wanted to flee, no one could truly catch up to him... To be continued!
