89: Returning home laden with treasures, back to the family.
Heaven-Reaching Pagoda, Fifth Layer.
When Chu He's figure appeared once again, Uncle Fu immediately greeted him respectfully.
“Master.”
Chu He nodded, his gaze shifting to the top of the phoenix tree divine tree.
Feng Ziyan was still in a deep sleep. Her breathing was steady and long, and the rhythm of the new life within her womb had become even stronger and more vibrant under the nourishment of the Chaos Qi that Chu He had previously infused into her.
“Very good.”
Chu He smiled with satisfaction.
He did not disturb Feng Ziyan. Instead, with a thought, he began to shrink the entire Heaven-Reaching Pagoda, along with the phoenix tree divine tree, Feng Ziyan, and Uncle Fu inside.
The thousand-zhang-tall pagoda, after a burst of spatial distortion, transformed into an inconspicuous speck of dust that fell into his palm and subsequently vanished.
Having settled this traveling palace, Chu He finally turned his gaze toward the direction of Qingyang City.
His heart was set on returning home.
Having been away for so long, he missed home; he missed his Waner, his Qinger, and his several adorable children.
Especially since the Family now had two new members.
One was the Ninth Princess Zhao Linger, who possessed the Supreme Yin Body.
The other was the 'nine-aperture exquisite heart' he had just taken from the imperial treasury, the most crucial core material for Su Qingxue to set up the City Protecting Grand Array.
He wondered how Qingxue's grand array was coming along.
And his children.
His Eldest Son, Chu Tian, should be nearly four years old now, right? He wondered if he had been slacking in his cultivation.
His daughter Yuning—he wondered if that girl's Innate Dao Body had awakened yet.
Then there were those two troublesome dragon and phoenix twins, Batian and Ling Xi; they probably had the house in a total mess again.
And finally, his youngest son, Chu Ce, who had shown Heaven-Defying talent in array dao shortly after birth.
At the thought of them, Chu He's heart, which had grown cold from slaughter, couldn't help but soften.
That was his root.
It was the entire meaning behind his struggle.
“Time to go home!”
Chu He no longer hesitated. With a thought, he communicated with the Destiny Golden Dragon in his Sea of Consciousness.
“Aung—!”
Accompanied by a high-pitched dragon roar, the sleeping Destiny Golden Dragon above the Chu Family Mansion suddenly snapped its eyes open!
No, this time, there was more than one!
Driven by Chu He's majestic Luck of over 24,000 points, nine thousand-zhang-long black dragons condensed from pure Luck power tore through the Void Realm, poking their dragon heads out above Chu City!
Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin!
This ultimate trump card, which consumed a massive amount of energy but was fully loaded with prestige and functionality, appeared in the world once again!
Only this time, it was no longer for the sake of traveling, but for—going home!
In the next moment, above the Northern Desolate Gobi hundreds of millions of miles away, space was similarly torn apart.
Nine ferocious black dragons, dragging an ancient and mysterious bronze coffin, slowly emerged from the rift.
That terrifying dragon might, originating from the primordial chaos, instantly swept across the entire Northern Desolate!
Countless Yao Beasts that were fighting or foraging for food all prostrated on the ground under this dragon might, trembling as if they had met the sovereign of their Bloodline!
Some Cultivators who had just recovered from the fear of the "Central Province Sacred Land massacre" felt this even more terrifying and ancient aura; they were so scared that their Dao Hearts failed on the spot, and they spat out blood.
“This... what is this again?!”
“Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin! It's the legendary Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin!”
“Could it be that the one who wiped out the Central Province Sacred Land was this forbidden existence?!”
For a time, all the experts across the continent who could sense this aura fell into endless shock and speculation.
Meanwhile, Chu He had already stepped onto that Giant Bronze Coffin.
He stood atop the casket, his robes fluttering and his expression indifferent, like a supreme sovereign inspecting his territory.
“Home.”
He softly uttered those two words.
“Roar!”
The nine black dragons roared in unison, their cries shaking the heavens!
Dragging the bronze coffin, they turned into a streak of black light that slashed across the sky, instantly plunging into the spatial rift ahead and vanishing... Qingyang City, now known as Chu City.
After months of development and the investment of massive resources from the Chu Family, this once small, remote city had undergone earth-shaking changes.
The city walls had been raised and reinforced, inscribed with countless defensive array patterns.
The streets within the city had become wider and cleaner; shops lined the roads, and people came and went in a scene of prosperity.
Especially in the city center, the Chu Family Mansion, which had been expanded by more than ten times, was like a celestial palace pavilion, possessing extraordinary grandeur.
At this moment, in the Chu Family back garden.
Lin Waner, Qinger, Su Qingxue, and the newly joined Zhao Linger—the four women were sitting in a pavilion, chatting while watching the children play.
“Sister Waner, Husband has been out this time for I don't know how long; I wonder when he'll be back.”
Qinger said with some worry as she watched the twins chasing each other in the distance.
She had also stepped onto the path of cultivation now. With the help of the massive amount of Medicinal Pills and Cultivation Techniques Chu He had left behind, she already had a cultivation in the Qi Gathering Realm, and her appearance looked even younger and more beautiful than before.
“Don't worry, Husband has great divine abilities; he will be fine.”
Lin Waner comforted her with a smile, but a hint of worry also flashed deep in her eyes.
She presided over the Chu Family Pill Hall, and her intelligence network spanned the entire Great Yan Dynasty. Naturally, she knew what a bloodbath the outside world had become recently due to the emergence of the treasure called the 'Heaven-Reaching Pagoda,' where even Nascent Soul Old Monsters had fallen in unknown numbers.
She was very worried whether her husband had also been drawn into this storm.
Su Qingxue didn't speak. She just quietly stroked her slightly bulging lower abdomen, feeling the wonderful sensation of the fetus within her being connected to her Bloodline, her face overflowing with the glow of motherhood.
In her heart, her husband was invincible.
No matter what danger he encountered, he would surely turn peril into safety.
Just then—
“Rumble!”
The entire Chu City shook violently without any warning!
Immediately after, an indescribable and terrifying dragon might descended thunderously from the Nine Heavens!
Inside the pavilion, the expressions of the four women all changed.
Lin Waner and Su Qingxue immediately shielded the children behind them, looking up at the sky warily.
“This pressure... it's so familiar!” Lin Waner said, uncertain.
In the next moment, they saw a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
Directly above the Chu Family Mansion, space shattered like a mirror.
A massive black rift appeared out of thin air.
Nine ferocious, domineering black dragons emitting a primordial aura slowly emerged from the rift, dragging a Giant Bronze Coffin!
“It's Husband!”
“Husband is back!”
Recognizing the familiar figure standing atop the casket, Lin Waner and Qinger instantly wept with joy!
Su Qingxue and Zhao Linger's beautiful eyes also sparkled, their faces filled with shock and admiration.
This was their man!
Every time he returned, it was so earth-shattering!
