The city gates opened, and the Fairies and Dwarves cheered as they came out. Dwarf Chief Dilo was so excited that his face was bright red, and Chief Greenwood and Granny Witherwood also had smiles on their faces. The entire city was filled with cheers and shouts of joy.
This battle had lasted for more than ten hours, and every minute and every second had tugged at their heartstrings. After all, this city carried all of their hopes and futures. They had escaped from dire straits time and time again, and had miraculously turned the situation around time and time again. Over the past 10 hours, they had experienced countless ups and downs in their hearts. At the very last moment, Ling Chen's return had completely resolved the crisis, and they couldn't help but yell out in excitement.
"Brother Ling Tian, it's great that you've returned. You've saved us once again! I'm more and more convinced that you're a messenger sent by the heavens to save us, "Chief Dilo said excitedly. All of the Dwarves looked at Ling Chen with passion in their eyes. Ling Chen's position in their hearts had risen to a height that no one else could reach.
"Beautifully done." Greenwood looked at each of the Dwarves, his eyes filled with praise. He had watched the entire battle, and knew that it was a miracle that they had managed to win with less than a fifth of the enemy's forces. Finally, his gaze fell on Ling Chen as he said sincerely, "I haven't seen you for a while, and you seem to have become a completely different person. You're definitely not an ordinary person. "
Beside him, Cai 'Er excitedly flew over to Xiao Qi, Su' Er, and the others, and happily floated around them, smiling like a flower. Ying Xue stood by Granny Witherwood's side, her expression indifferent, as if she was still ice and snow that would never melt.
The celebration of the new city didn't last for too long, and soon, the Fairies and Dwarves once again began to construct the city. After surviving a calamity, their enthusiasm and drive were stimulated to the extreme. Every one of them worked with all their might. Their bodies were drenched in sweat, but their faces were filled with the most relaxed and joyful smiles.
The Skyfall Dynasty's 3 Heavenly Kings hurriedly left with the Skyfall Dynasty, and Yun Feng and Xiao Qiu Feng also left. They had to deal with the aftermath of the guild. The women held onto Xuanyuan Dia Wu and asked her about Ling Chen's childhood. Ling Chen had never told them about his past, so they all wanted to know more about Xuanyuan Dia Wu. Of course, they were also very interested in her identity as the 'Sword Emperor'. Shadissika and Cai 'Er played together, but Shadissika was evidently not paying attention. She was constantly stealing glances at Ling Chen, as if she was afraid that he would disappear.
"Elder Dita, here are two Spatial Stones. Please help me make another 500 Spatial Beads. The remaining Spatial Stones can be used to create spatial items and teleportation channels when necessary."
Ling Chen handed the 2 Spatial Stones that he had obtained from the East Ocean Continent's Cherry Blossom God Palace to the Dwarf Clan's Elder Dita. Anyone who used Spatial Orbs would become dependent on them. After returning to the new city, he had used up his last Spatial Orb, and now, Ling Chen didn't have a single one left.
"Heavens! You've obtained another 2 legendary godly items! This is simply inconceivable! "Chief Dita exclaimed as he received the Spatial Stones. These 2 Spatial Stones were much larger than the 2 Spatial Stones from before. He patted his chest as he said, "Leave this small matter to me. I'll have 500 Spatial Orbs ready by tomorrow morning at the latest.
"That's right, there's also these. Use them where they're suitable. I'm sure you'll all be interested in them." Ling Chen took out all of the treasures that he had collected in this period of time. In the blink of an eye, there was a small mountain that was as tall as a few people.
With Little Gray's keen sense for treasures, wherever Ling Chen went, none of the treasures would be able to escape. In the 2 months that he had been in the East Ocean Continent, he had spent most of his time in and around the Cherry Blossom God Valley. The abundant spirit qi and the aura of Moon Deities had attracted all sorts of treasures. There were countless treasures hidden within the Godchild Peak, and after Little Gray had discovered them, Ling Chen had collected them all. Anything that Little Gray had taken a liking to was definitely a treasure amongst treasures. Among them, they were mainly made of rare metals and materials.
"Heavens!!"
Elder Dita almost fainted … he fainted from shock and happiness.
"What did I just see … I simply can't believe my eyes." Elder Dita directly threw himself onto the pile of treasures, his entire body trembling so violently that it felt like it was going to fall apart. Good forging materials were half of a Dwarf's life. With so many rare treasures piled up in front of him, he felt as if he had arrived in heaven that he had never even dared to dream of. Smelling the aura of rare stones and looking at the highest quality materials that he had only seen in records, Elder Dita almost went crazy. "Green Cloud Stone, Jade Blood Glass, Secret Darkness Gold, Overlord Rock, Star Wood … heavens, heavens … ah, this … this is actually Chilling Crystal Chalcedony! The Chilling Crystal Chalcedony that only exists in records, and not even our ancestor has ever obtained it! "
Dita muttered to himself in a daze, occasionally yelling and screaming, as if he wanted to bury his entire body in the pile of treasures. He could not hear what Ling Chen was saying at all. Ling Chen tapped his nose, and could only walk away. It was best to leave these things to the Dwarves. As for what to do with them, the Dwarves would be more knowledgeable than anyone else. Of course, Ling Chen had kept some Chilling Crystal Chalcedony for himself. Not only was Chilling Crystal Chalcedony a top-tier forging material, but it also had the heaven-defying effect of instantly increasing one's level.
"Xiao Xue, what's going on with the Skyfall Dynasty?" Ling Chen pulled Li Xiao Xue over and finally asked the question that he had been wondering about for a long time.
Li Xiao Xue did not directly reply, and instead brushed her hair behind her ear, "Come with me to see someone tomorrow."
"Who?"
"Gu Qing Han." Li Xiao Xue glanced at him.
"Her? Does it have something to do with her? " Ling Chen felt quite surprised. He had heard of Gu Qing Han's name a long time ago, but he had only met her once, which was the first time he had seen Li Xiao Xue. Her elegant and dignified aura had left a deep impression on him. However, it had only been a brief glance, and they had not interacted or even talked to each other.
"In this world, the only person who could make the Skyfall Dynasty's 3 Heavenly Kings lead the entire Skyfall Dynasty to their deaths is Gu Qing Han. Even their fathers couldn't do it. As for the reason, you'll understand when you see her tomorrow, "Li Xiao Xue said as she crossed her arms and lightly smiled. This was what she did the most.
Ling Chen slightly frowned and thought for a moment before asking, "Does she know who I am in real life and where I'm living?"
"She does," Li Xiao Xue replied. "But don't worry, she's smarter than any other woman. Since she was willing to sacrifice the entire Skyfall Dynasty to help you, she naturally wants to be on good terms with you. How could she reveal information about you? From how I see it, she's most likely like me, and discovered that you have too much potential … I'll go pick you up tomorrow afternoon, but don't go out. "
After giving Ling Chen a flirtatious look, Li Xiao Xue turned and gave an almost imperceptible smile as she walked away. Her deep, limpid eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world … what would happen tomorrow?
After Li Xiao Xue left, Winter of That Year and Hundred Miles of Ice, who had restrained themselves for a long time, finally found an opportunity to come to Ling Chen's side.
"Ling Tian … don't you have anything to say to us?" In front of Ling Chen, Winter of That Year completely put away his frivolous and lowly appearance, and his expression was quite complicated. Beside him, Hundred Miles of Ice also had a serious expression on his face as he stared at Ling Chen with a gaze as sharp as a sword.
"What year did you enter Heaven?" Ling Chen frowned as he coldly asked as he met their gazes.
These words caused Winter of That Year and Hundred Miles of Ice's pupils to simultaneously contract.
"So you came from there as well! I never thought that there would be other survivors apart from us! "Winter of That Year suppressed his voice as he spoke, but his heart rate sped up. He and Hundred Miles of Ice were both humans, but they were different from normal humans. They were 'people' who shouldn't exist in this world. As such, in this vast world, they could only have this person by their side. Only they knew the loneliness, inferiority, and the feeling of not being able to exist in this world.
Now that he had inadvertently found someone of his own kind, he naturally felt a sense of joy and closeness in his heart.
"Answer me first, what year was it?" Ling Chen asked.
Winter of That Year looked at Hundred Miles of Ice and didn't hide anything as he directly replied, "It was 10 years ago. More accurately speaking, it was 10 years and 4 months! What about you? "
"10 years ago?" Ling Chen repeated in a low voice as a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. That was when he had left 'Heaven'.
He had been in 'Heaven' for 3 years and 4 months, and had returned to Hua Xia after 'killing' Instructor Hell, 7 years had passed … and now, it had been 13 years and 6 months.
These 2 people had entered 'Heaven' 2 months after he had left.
"I entered earlier than you," Ling Chen said, "I entered 13 years ago, 13 years and 6 months."
"13 years ago?" This time, it was Winter of That Year and Hundred Miles of Ice's turn to be shocked. A look of confusion appeared on their faces as their expressions changed.
"You're Adam!!" Winter of That Year's eyes widened as he stared at Ling Chen and uncontrollably yelled.
"You know me?" Ling Chen was quite calm when he heard the name 'Adam'. The things that happened in 'Heaven' were incredibly shocking to any ordinary person. Even the victims of 'Heaven' couldn't divulge any information about it, or it would bring them endless trouble. However, to these 2 people who had also walked out of 'Heaven' and were giving off a familiar aura, there was nothing for him to hide.
"Heh … Adam and Eve, how could we not know these two names?" Winter of That Year laughed. Although he was laughing, his laughter was incredibly sorrowful, "No wonder you're so powerful, much more powerful than me and the boss. No wonder you could easily defeat the Sword Emperor and defeat an army of millions. So you're not a 'man-made god' like us, but one of that Mad Scientist's most perfect creations, Adam!"
"Man-made god?" Ling Chen frowned.
"That's right, man-made gods. The boss and I are the so-called 'man-made gods'. It sounds very cool and domineering, right? Do you know what man-made gods are, and how they came to be? " Winter of That Year laughed even more sorrowfully, and Hundred Miles of Ice, who was behind him, silently closed his eyes, giving off a sorrowful aura.
"Adam and Eve are the perfect creations that the Mad Scientist has been shouting about every day. They are the greatest creations of his life. He has told us many times that when the time is right, we can remove the restrictions on Adam and Eve's brains, and Adam and Eve will become true demigods, demigods created using humans as samples! Two perfect Demigods are enough, but that lunatic still needs a large number of powerful 'slaves' below the level of Demigod to accomplish his insane goals. Thus, he began to nurture us Man-made Gods … Hehe, Man-made Gods. Adam, do you know why when we get close to each other, we feel a strange sense of familiarity? "
Ling Chen: "… …"
"The boss and I thought that we'd met other man-made gods like us, but we never thought that we'd meet the 'Lord God' of man-made gods. Because our man-made gods are created by injecting your blood and implanting your genes. In other words, we're just lowly lifeforms created from your blood and genes. "
Ling Chen: "!!!"
