Chapter 1044: Chapter 695: This Chen Guang is somewhat unappreciative!

From the Black Pearl tearing through the storm, to Icarus soaring in the sky.

From the burning Elf Divine Tree, to the cold and silent Frozen Throne.

From "Chicken soup’s coming!" to "I am the strongest barber on Small Island."

...

One eerie or shocking scene after another appeared before the eyes of the Priestess.

In the memory fragments of "Chen Guang," she glimpsed one magical and abnormal world after another.

She couldn’t understand these images, but she was greatly shocked.

She saw "Chen Guang" sometimes in the state of a world destroyer, leading terrible monsters as they slaughtered humanity.

Sometimes he adopted the state of a world savior, fighting alongside humans’ warriors against the monsters to the end.

There were times when "he" would release a dragon roar while battling dragons. At other times "he" would wield dual blades, sparking fires on the backs of giant beasts as he battled them.

How many had he destroyed? And how many had he saved? How many worlds had he wandered? And for how long had he been active in those worlds?

"What exactly has this Chen Guang experienced? How many years has he actually lived?" For the first time, fear appeared on the Priestess’s face, although it was fleeting, it was clearly seen by Li Changhe.

And just as the Priestess was overwhelmed with fear due to "Chen Guang’s" memory fragments.

Yun Ting inside Li Changhe chuckled menacingly.

As Li Changhe’s Symbiotic Body, Yun Ting had immediately sensed the Priestess’s prying. As the Priestess looked into Li Changhe’s eyes, a strange psychic strength quietly spread out.

Although Li Changhe was wearing the Insect God Vest, theoretically capable of disguising and deceiving the perception of those with high energy, Yun Ting saw it as a perfect opportunity to intimidate.

Want to spy? Then I’ll show you the grand treasure!

Thus, as an abnormality with high energy and the ultimate homebody, Brother Ting decisively displayed her extensive knowledge.

She completely bewildered the Priestess.

For someone who was not from the modern era, suddenly receiving so much information led to a misjudgment about Li Changhe’s identity and origins, resulting in fear.

After all, in those fragmented images, this "Chen Guang" had more than once destroyed worlds.

At that moment, the only thought in the Priestess’s mind was that this was an extremely dangerous person.

Taking advantage of the few seconds of her hesitation, Li Changhe slightly furrowed his brow, then said, "Honored by the Queen’s invitation, I, Chen Guang, naturally should proceed immediately. Please, Priestess, lead the way. I will attend the feast with my wife. However, Priestess, you have been quite impolite. I’ll overlook it for the Queen’s sake. Be more careful."

With these words, many guards of Xuan City felt displeased.

And upon hearing the last sentence, the Priestess was shocked. This Chen Guang had actually... actually noticed her prying? A psychic strength as formidable as the Queen’s!

In the room, Chen Yu and Qiu Wentian had dodged behind the bed and dropped the bed curtains to block each other’s sight.

Meanwhile, Xiao Nan, harboring hostility towards the Queen of Xuan City, gave the Priestess a slight nod from behind Li Changhe. As a divine creature, Xiao Nan had strong psychic defenses and was also ready to feed misleading images to the Priestess.

Squelching the unease in her heart, the Priestess smiled back at Xiao Nan and looked into her beautiful eyes once more to pry. Yet, after being warned by Li Changhe, she didn’t dare to directly gaze into Xiao Nan’s eyes to pry on her memory fragments but instead probed her emotions.

Many spies from different nations, seeking to enter Xuan City, had forged identities before; some as merchants, others as knights-errant, and some as ordinary workers.

To outsiders, they had no flaws, but the Priestess simply needed to look into their eyes to infer the colors of their emotions. From this, she could determine disguises.

For instance, if there’s a couple who doesn’t display any romantic affection between them, they are most likely spies.

And at this moment, the Spring Sacrifice saw a thick pink aura tightly entwining around Xiao Nan and Li Changhe.

That was indeed an enviable color of adoration.

It seemed that their identities as husband and wife were genuine, and a similar color was present in the room, though it seemed to also be mixed with admiration.

But she hadn’t seen the other party’s eyes, so the Spring Sacrifice couldn’t be certain.

However, that was enough, and it made the Spring Sacrifice sigh with slight relief.

At least, this ’Chen Guang’ hadn’t disguised himself in this aspect.

"Chen Guang, please come this way, we have prepared a carriage for you," the Spring Sacrifice said, stepping back a few paces to make way.

The Xuan City guards, on the other hand, were somewhat resentful.

They thought it was unprecedented for their queen to invite a man, and that man even brought his wife along.

Didn’t he know how great an honor it was to be invited by the queen? Didn’t he know that the queen was the most beautiful woman on the entire continent? There were as many people adoring the queen as there were stars in the sky.

"This Chen Guang, really doesn’t know what’s good for him!" The Xuan City guards were somewhat indignant, feeling that Li Changhe underestimated their queen and ignored her kindness.

In fact, even if the Xuan City’s queen was beautiful and charming, after seeing the terrifying sight in the Bottom Nest, Li Changhe wouldn’t have any good feelings towards her.

Moreover...

Considering the ’enthusiasm’ of the Xuan City queen before, going alone would probably result in Li Changhe being devoured alive. With Xiao Nan there, Li Changhe would be much ’safer’. Yes... in every way.

When Li Changhe left the room, the soldiers of the Great Tang Protectorate naturally noticed.

However, due to the abilities of the Spring Sacrifice, they did not show any reaction, fearful of revealing any clues.

And after last night’s misunderstandings, they all had bruised faces, so they were wearing masks, concealing their eyes from the Spring Sacrifice.

Seeing Li Changhe follow the Spring Sacrifice, many soldiers felt apprehensive. They hesitated over whether to intervene.

In a certain room, Guo Yi, Yang Ming, and Wu Jie, among others, were waiting for the orders that Li Changhe might issue.

The current situation was not part of the plan. The original plan was to enter the Inner city with Guo Yi and others during the great festival of Xuan City tomorrow, by which time the Expeditionary Army would also have mostly assembled. Only then would they have the leverage to negotiate terms with the queen.

However, the teacup on the table in the room suddenly toppled over. But the tea didn’t spill onto the table; instead, it formed words on the surface.

’Wait and see how things unfold, Chen Yu will convey your general’s orders’

They had come to profoundly understand the abilities of the general’s wife the previous night.

Guo Yi and the others silently nodded and saluted the words.

Soon after, Li Changhe and Xiao Nan boarded the luxurious carriage brought by the Xuan City contingent.

Amidst the murmurs of the Xuan City guards, they set off toward the Inner city of Xuan City.

And down in the Bottom Nest beneath Xuan City.

For some reason, the insect god let out a joyful laugh.
