After returning from Sacha’s palace, Chen Li did not immediately return to Qingshui Mansion but went to the small hill near the Dongfang House instead, and he sat on a swing under the banyan tree while trying to recall his lost memories.
Besides, Chen Li also tried to enter the memory fragment; he wanted to talk to Emperor Long or Hermit Long, but he couldn’t do it no matter how hard he tried.
“Sigh! Maybe I was able to enter that place on that day just by coincidence.” Chen Li then wondered to himself. “What should I do next? Yang Lang and Shen Lu are already dead, while Bei Xiang and Yu Lei’s lives are already in my hands, and I can kill them whenever I want, so only Long Jiuxiao is left now. However, if I attack him now, then the people from the hidden families, especially the Tang family, will definitely appear immediately.”
“Are you afraid of them, Little Master?” Xiao Kong’er asked as she appeared in front of Chen Li.
Chen Li shook her head at her. “I’m not afraid of them, but the situation in this place is different from the Seven Moon Realm. If those people suddenly appear to the public, and I have to face them all at once, then this country will be in chaos.”
“That’s true.” Xiao Kong’er nodded in agreement with him. “Unlike the true cultivation world, where killing or being killed is normal, the mortals on this planet are restricted by various useless laws. Fortunately, you still haven’t gotten Hermit Long’s memories, or you wouldn’t care about those laws and would have killed them directly.”
“Is Hermit Long really that evil?”
“He doesn’t care much about humans, and he will use his abilities to kill or control them. Back then, a cultivator clan offended him, and he controlled the strongest of them to slaughter that clan, whether they were guilty or not.” Chen Li took a deep breath after he heard that, and Xiao Kong’er continued her explanation. “In fact, he is not the most evil among all the reincarnations of the original Long Wang, but he is very evil when compared to his other reincarnations besides that one.”
“There is still a reincarnation of Long Wang who is much more evil than Hermit Long?”
“That reincarnation of Long Wang is truly a menace, and he has no human side at all. Even though Hermit Long is also evil, he still has a human side, and he doesn’t kill humans carelessly as long as they don’t offend him.” Chen Li felt relieved after he heard that. Although he had no problem killing people, he didn’t want to kill innocent people. “His reincarnation was neither a human nor a dragon, but he was a sinister living being, and he was much more vicious than the demons. However, among all his reincarnations, his life is the shortest.”
“Not a human?” Chen Li turned to Xiao Kong’er in confusion.
Xiao Kong’er nodded and told him. “He is a true devil, and he is the most heartless among all of Long Wang’s reincarnations. Back then, he went on a killing spree, and he killed three-quarters of a planet’s population just for his own pleasure, plus he did it without a care whether they were adults, children, or babies.”
“What the hell?” Chen Li shouted in shock after hearing that. “Aren’t his actions too excessive? Killing innocent adults is already terrible, but he also kills children and babies who are still ignorant.”
“Like I said before, he doesn’t have a human side, and he’s also very heartless, so you shouldn’t be surprised if he does such things.” Xiao Kong’er replied as she let out a heavy sigh.
Chen Li’s expression became very gloomy after hearing that, and he didn’t dare imagine if he met that reincarnation of Long Wang, let alone if he inherited his memories and character. “Then how did he die?”
“Big Sis Shijian killed him with her own hands.” Xiao Kong’er’s expression turned sad after she said that. “Even though it was very difficult for her, she was forced to make that decision, or else there would be more victims because of his actions, and she locked herself in the time realm for hundreds of years after killing him.”
“Xiao Shijian really cares about the original Long Wang, huh?” Chen Li muttered to himself.
Xiao Kong’er told him directly. “After all, Big Sis Shijian is the oldest living creature in this universe, and the original Long Wang is the second oldest, so their bond is very strong because they have lived together for more than billions of years.”
“Ugh!” Chen Li suddenly felt a painful headache and groaned in pain, and some old memories flashed through his mind.
“Little Master!” Xiao Kong’er exclaimed in panic after seeing him like that. “What happened to you?”
“Shijian… Time… I haven’t seen you for a long time.” Chen Li mumbled softly before he fell unconscious, but Xiao Kong’er immediately supported him and laid him on the ground.
However, Xiao Kong’er raised her eyebrows, remembering Chen Li’s muttering just now. “Apparently, my words affect his memories, but he doesn’t seem to be able to remember them yet.”
“After all, those memories are far behind, and he hasn’t even regained the memories of Emperor Long.” Xiao Hei said as she appeared in front of her along with Xiao Huoli, Xiao Jianyi, and Chen Meiyi.
Chen Meiyi let out a soft sigh, squatted down beside Chen Li, and channeled her light qi into his body. “Kong’er, you have to be careful with your words, or things will be detrimental to him if he regains too many memories of the original Long Wang at once.”
“I myself didn’t expect that this would happen to him.” Xiao Kong’er replied with a heavy sigh.
Xiao Huoli then said to her. “Big Sis Kong’er, I think you should refrain from telling Chen Li too much information about the original Long Wang, especially about his relationship with Big Sis Shijian. Otherwise, he will become like this again, and his memories will become a mess.”
Xiao Kong’er nodded in understanding. “After this, I won’t talk too much to Little Master about their relationship.”
As for Xiao Jianyi, she didn’t say anything, but her eyes continued to focus on Chen Li.
After they waited for a while, Chen Li finally opened his eyes, and he looked up at the night sky in a daze.
“Are you okay, Li’er?” Chen Meiyi gently asked.
“I’m fine.” Chen Li replied with a nod. “Many memories flashed in my mind earlier, but they disappeared again, and I can’t remember any of them.”
“It’s fine, Master.” Xiao Hei said to him. “Sooner or later, all those memories will return to you, so you don’t need to force yourself to remember them all now.”
“Little Master, I-” 𝙚𝙙𝙤𝒗𝒆𝒍．𝒄𝙤𝙢
“Sister Kong’er, it’s not your fault, so you don’t need to say anything.” Chen Li interrupted her as he stood up, but he was surprised to see Xiao Jianyi. “You finally came, Sister Jianyi.”
“En.” Xiao Jianyi simply nodded at him, and her look remained as cold as when they met for the first time.
Xiao Kong’er chuckled and explained it. “Wan’er wanted to train more seriously in swordsmanship; I brought Jianyi back by force to teach her and Feng’er.”
“I see.” Chen Li nodded in understanding. “That’s good; I also need her guidance regarding the technique, so I’m glad that she’s with us now. Anyway, you guys can go back to Tianyi Realm first, and I will go back to Qingshui Mansion now.”
However, Xiao Hei immediately points towards the distance and tells him. “Master, the female bloodsucker demons from before are there now, and many people are chasing them.”
“Hmm?” Chen Li raised his eyebrows after hearing that and immediately opened his map to find their location, and he saw two black dots surrounded by many people. “Long Xueyi and Long Huishan, huh? I didn’t expect that they could withstand my Heavenly Charm Technique for so long! But why are those people chasing them?”
“Long Jiuxiao probably already knew their identity as vampires, so he ordered his subordinates to capture them.” Chen Meiyi said to him. “Anyway, I think it’s better if you save them, and they might be useful to you.”
Chen Li turned to her big sister in confusion. “How can they be of any use to me? They are just demons, and they have difficulty dealing with those people.”
“You’re wrong about them, Master.” Xiao Hei said as she shook her head. “Even though those two women are bloodsucker demons, they are not pureblood demons, and both of them have profound veins. If you pull them to your side and teach them to cultivate, they can become demon cultivators, and their demon abilities will be further enhanced.”
Chen Li nodded in understanding and asked Xiao Hei. “Can you reverse their condition? Since they’re not pureblood vampires, I think you can turn them into humans again, right?”
“You’re right about that; I can turn them human again, but I need your help to do that.” Xiao Hei replied to him as she nodded. “Anyway, we can talk about this later, and you have to save them first, or they will fall into those people’s hands.”
After she said that, Xiao Hei immediately entered Tianyi Realm, and the other spirit women also followed suit. On the other hand, Chen Li immediately disappeared from the small hill and rushed to the Long Sisters’ location.
