I’m Already A Great Emperor, And The System Wants Me To Be The Heroine’s Lackey?

Jun Jiuxiao had also heard the conversation between Lin Chen and his master. He thought that with Lin Chen’s physique, his “little chick” had become a bit too much – no, it should be called a “giant chick” now. Li Xian’s poor butthole was probably going to suffer terribly.

To obtain the Vitality Herb, Li Xian had deliberately lowered his cultivation to the peak of the Organ Refining stage before entering the secret realm.

It’s a pity that Zhu Guangyuan couldn’t come along this time. Otherwise, the both of them would have been in for a world of pain.

Zhu Guangyuan’s inability to enter the secret realm was completely due to Jun Jiuxiao. Jun Jiuxiao’s vicious scheme had led to the annihilation of Zhu Guangyuan’s family, with only his cousin managing to flee and survive by taking refuge in the Xuantian Holy Land.

Zhu Guangyuan, along with his cousin, didn’t even dare to leave Qianyuan Peak now, fearing they might be killed if they went out.

He didn’t even know who his family’s enemies were. Overnight, his family members were either dead or missing, with even his grandfather, a Venerable, being killed.

Meanwhile, Lin Chen, guided by Elder Danyue, found a fire-type spiritual herb. Just as he was about to pick it, Elder Danyue reminded him, “Little Chen, someone’s coming.”

Upon hearing the warning, Lin Chen halted his attempt to pick the herb and scanned his surroundings warily.

Ji Lanqing’s figure suddenly appeared before Lin Chen, causing him to become dumbfounded and blurt out, “So beautiful.”

Ji Lanqing had been focused on the fire-type spiritual herb, not even noticing Lin Chen’s presence until she heard his voice.

Seeing that it was Lin Chen, Ji Lanqing’s killing intent flared up instantly. However, she approached him slowly and without revealing her intentions.

Thinking that Jie Lanqing’s gradual approach was due to the effect of his newly awakened physique, Lin Chen became quite pleased with himself.

Jun Jiuxiao, watching the live broadcast, also saw Ji Lanqing. As he saw her approaching Lin Chen, a smile appeared on his face, but his gaze was colder than before.

2233 shivered, wondering why the host kept smiling like that. The male and female leads just met, and the host was getting angry? Humans were so strange, the system really couldn’t understand their complex emotions.

Lin Chen straightened his back and used his bubble-like voice to say, “Fair maiden, I am…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Elder Danyue sensed Ji Lanqing’s killing intent and hurriedly warned him, “Lin Chen, she wants to kill you. Quickly, get away!”

Hearing Elder Danyue’s mental transmission, Lin Chen immediately erected a spiritual shield and rapidly backed away, drawing out his weapon.

Thanks to Elder Danyue’s timely warning, Lin Chen was unharmed, only leaving behind a scorched pit where he had been standing.

Seeing the sneak attack fail, Ji Lanqing stopped pretending and ignited the Red Lotus Karma Fire, launching a killing move.

Seeing Ji Lanqing’s fire, Elder Danyue became excited and shouted, “Red Lotus Karma Fire! It’s actually a heavenly fire! Little Chen, if you kill her and then absorb her fire, your ‘Devouring Fire Technique’ can definitely evolve into a Holy King-level technique!”

Lin Chen hesitated a bit. Should he attack such a beautiful woman?

“Master, is there a way to devour the Red Lotus Karma Fire without killing her?”

Elder Danyue could see that Lin Chen had been bewitched by her beauty and scolded him, “No, she and the Red Lotus Karma Fire have become one. You must kill her to devour the fire.”

Lin Chen was still hesitating while dodging Ji Lanqing’s attacks.

Elder Danyue continued to persuade him, “What beautiful woman don’t you have once your cultivation is higher? All the beauties under heaven will be yours, only the strong can possess them.”

“Do you want to be laughed at as a waste like before? Everyone in the Xuantian Holy Land despises you. Have you forgotten? If you were a Holy King, would they still dare to look down on you?”

Lin Chen roared, “I don’t want that! I want to become strong!”

Then his expression turned ruthless. He stopped evading and started to counterattack.

Ji Lanqing ignored Lin Chen’s change and, seeing that he was no longer dodging, began attacking with all her might.

Outside, Jun Jiuxiao watched as Ji Lanqing got closer and closer to Lin Chen, almost unable to resist the urge to rush into the secret realm and kill Lin Chen himself.

Just as he was about to enter the secret realm, he saw Ji Lanqing make a decisive move against Lin Chen, using a lethal strike.

Seeing this scene, Jun Jiuxiao stopped, silently observing.

During the fight between Ji Lanqing and Lin Chen, Lin Chen wielded the giant sword given by Elder Danyue. Ji Lanqing relied solely on the Red Lotus Karma Fire to clash with Lin Chen, using fire to meet the sword and still managed to hold her ground.

Moreover, it seemed the giant sword was nearing its limit against the burning Red Lotus Karma Fire.

Even though Ji Lanqing’s cultivation was still low and the Red Lotus Karma Fire wasn’t very powerful, it was one of the three great heavenly fires. No ordinary weapon could withstand it.

For the giant sword to last this long was extraordinary.

Lin Chen noticed this issue and asked Elder Danyue, “Master, what should I do? The sword can’t withstand the fire much longer, and my body can’t handle it directly.”

Elder Danyue, now a soul form, was greatly restrained by the Red Lotus Karma Fire. Any contact would cause irreparable damage to his soul, so he dared not intervene.

Seeing that Elder Danyue had no solution, Lin Chen had no choice but to withdraw the giant sword. He continued evading Ji Lanqing’s attacks while trying to think of a solution.

Jun Jiuxiao felt that Jie Lanqing still lacked real combat experience. Once she left the secret realm, he had to take her out for special training.

If it were him in Ji Lanqing’s position, he could have seriously injured Lin Chen with just three moves.

As Ji Lanqing fought, she gradually got the hang of it, her fire control becoming more and more skilled, her techniques growing crueler. Lin Chen was gradually unable to dodge them, and with Elder Danyue unable to help, he could only abandon the spiritual herb and flee.

Lin Chen took the initiative to speak, “Fairy, I’ll give you the herb. Can we call a truce?”

Ji Lanqing did not respond, only responding with increasingly fierce attacks. Seeing that this approach was ineffective, Lin Chen directly fled.

Ji Lanqing ignored the spiritual herb and pursued Lin Chen, determined to kill him.
