My gorgeous wife-Chapter 1858 - 1827: Cat Emperor

Vendor!

The person who appeared in front of Li Chen and the others was the vendor whom Li Chen had found peculiar before.

Perhaps others couldn’t see it, but Li Chen had long noticed this guy was hiding his cultivation.

And at this moment, it was clear that the vendor also had no intention of hiding his cultivation, as an Immortal Emperor-level aura was wantonly emanating.

"Senior, may I ask..." Ning Chenhai felt the pressure of the Immortal Emperor-level aura and couldn’t help but speak with some difficulty.

Who would have thought that they had just barely escaped from the Mo clan’s city and were now blocked by an Immortal Emperor?

Among them, the strongest were only two Immortal Kings, completely incomparable to an Immortal Emperor.

It could even be said that if the Immortal Emperor desired, he could crush them at any time.

"Actually, I was just curious at first." The vendor looked at Li Chen and the others and said softly, "Curious as to why a Heavenly Immortal would call an Earth Immortal teacher, unless this Earth Immortal is hiding his true strength?"

"To be honest, I’m someone with an especially strong curiosity. If this Earth Immortal really is hiding strength, then what method would he use to hide it so well that even I couldn’t tell?" The vendor shrugged at Li Chen: "As it turns out, you’re just an Earth Immortal, but rather than hiding cultivation, you’re even more unusual."

Li Chen gave a wry smile, "Senior, I’m just a regular Earth... oh, now a Heavenly Immortal, what’s so unusual about that?"

The vendor chuckled, "It’s the first time I’ve seen an Earth Immortal daring to face tribulation in front of a crowd of Soul Realm experts."

"Rest assured." At this time, the vendor waved to Li Chen, "I mean no harm, I just happened to be passing by and caught sight of you. So I came over, also to satisfy my own curiosity."

Staring at Li Chen, the vendor was full of curiosity and said, "Now, can you tell me what secret you have? My curiosity is killing me."

Damn your curiosity!

Li Chen cursed inwardly, as he was being targeted by a Daoist Lord. He was too busy trying to escape to cater to this guy’s damn curiosity.

But Li Chen definitely wouldn’t say that out loud.

Since he wasn’t strong enough now, who knows if the guy would slap him dead if displeased.

"Of course!" At this moment, Li Chen heard the vendor’s sound transmission: "I won’t take your secret for free. Tell me a secret, and I’ll help you with something. How about a fair trade?"

Li Chen’s heart shifted, and he transmitted back: "Why is Senior so fixated on my secrets?"

"It’s not your secrets, I’m tormented by curiosity!" The vendor said, scratching his head, "When I started cultivating, my Dao Heart was already like this. If I don’t satisfy my curiosity, my Dao Heart won’t be unimpeded, and I’ll never be able to advance to a Daoist Lord in this life!"

For a moment, Li Chen didn’t know what to say to this Immortal Emperor.

He had never heard of anyone whose Dao Heart was to satisfy curiosity.

With your massive curiosity, and such a love for others’ secrets, how did you cultivate to become an Immortal Emperor without someone killing you?

But regardless of what he thought, Li Chen also knew that with his current strength, there was no way to resist this guy.

"Alright, I might actually need you to help me with something, but I’ll only tell you my secret after you’ve helped me." Li Chen said.

"Deal!" The vendor said, looking quite satisfied.

Li Chen widened his eyes, not even asking what it was?

"Well..." Li Chen said awkwardly, "Senior, the favor I need might be a bit troublesome, are you sure it’s a deal?"

"I, Cat Emperor, keep my word. You can ask around in the Immortal Domain!" The vendor said, patting his chest.

Cat Emperor? Li Chen silently noted the name.

He had just been thinking about the saying, "Curiosity killed the cat," and unexpectedly, this guy’s name actually had "cat" in it.

At this moment, Li Chen’s body slightly jolted.

The Five Elements Boots sent a message.

"Boss, I’m here, hurry up. That guy hasn’t given up. Soon, just control me to open a space gate, and then we’ll escape far away." the Five Elements Boots said.

"Hmm... actually, there are three or four... well, including me, there are six of us." Li Chen said.

"Huh?!" The Five Elements Boots were dumbfounded, "Boss, are you out of your mind? Do you think you can carry six people?"

"There’s one who can fight." Li Chen glanced at the Cat Emperor next to him. Since this guy was so confident, he should be able to hold off a Daoist Lord for a while, right?

"Even carrying five is too much." The Five Elements Boots were almost in tears, "My dear boss, I suspect your brain was damaged when you reincarnated. With your current Earth Immortal cultivation, how can you carry five people?"

"But there’s you." Li Chen said with gratification, "As the mightiest treasure of the Starry Universe, it’s finally your chance to shine and contribute. What a blessing!"

"Damn you!"

The Five Elements Boots cursed Li Chen and then ignored him.

They could indeed carry five people, but doing so would consume a significant amount of its energy. The Five Elements Boots had stored quite a bit of energy recently, but generally, such consumption of its own energy was hard to replenish. So, Li Chen’s intent was clear, it would have to be a workhorse again.

Li Chen pursed his lips with a bitter smile in his heart, having no other choice.

If he could, he would just take Yang Xin and run, but Mo Chenxi, after all, was his student, and there was no way he could leave her behind.

Moreover, Mo Baishan was Mo Chenxi’s father. If he took Mo Chenxi alone, she surely wouldn’t agree.

So, with no other option, he decided to take everyone together.

As for Ning Chenhai... well, he’s just being taken along, one more isn’t much anyway.

"Uh, Cat Emperor senior, I might have a rather troublesome enemy showing up soon, can you help hold him off for a moment? Just a moment will do, next time I’ll definitely tell you my secret!" Li Chen said, patting his chest.

"Enemy?" The Cat Emperor looked at Li Chen, feeling that his tone seemed a bit off.

But thinking about it, an enemy of a... Heavenly Immortal, however strong, shouldn’t be that strong.

As an Immortal Emperor, the Cat Emperor nodded graciously, "No worries, I’ll take care of it."

Li Chen secretly turned his head back, sincerely hoping he wouldn’t have to meet this Cat Emperor again. Otherwise, he was certain this guy would definitely go all out against him next time.

Yang Xin and the others looked at Li Chen and the Cat Emperor with curiosity, not knowing what the two were secretly discussing.

But seeing that the Cat Emperor showed no hostility, they all relaxed.

"Stand together, it’s best to hold hands. Follow my lead in a moment." Li Chen transmitted to the group.

As soon as the words fell, a sharp screech came from the sky.
