I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

"Big sister, look! This guy named Li Chen is so powerful!" The graceful Bixiao Fairy, dressed in a turquoise dress, was astonished. She raised her delicate hand and pointed at Li Chen lying on the ground, exclaiming in amazement. Beside her stood two other fairies with outstanding temperaments—the Yunxiao Fairy and the Qiongxiao Fairy.

At this time, Fairy Qiongxiao frowned slightly, stared at Li Chen on the ground with cold eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Sister, as far as I know, Li Chen has already cultivated to the realm of a saint. If you are unwilling to marry him as the leader said, in my opinion, why don't you take this opportunity to kill him here to prevent future troubles!" After that, she waved her right hand lightly, a cold light flashed, and an extremely sharp sword appeared in her hand, the tip of the sword pointing directly at Li Chen's throat.

However, Fairy Yunxiao's expression darkened as she chided, "Second sister, third sister, stop your nonsense! Fellow Daoist Li Chen is a righteous man, radiating a sense of righteousness. How could we possibly commit such an unjust act?" Before she finished her words, Fairy Yunxiao flashed by, instantly arriving beside him like a ghost. Without hesitation, she extended her delicate hand and placed it on Li Chen's back, continuously channeling her powerful magical power into him.

"Sister!" Upon seeing this, Fairy Bixiao stamped her feet anxiously and shouted, "Sister, you have to think carefully! This man's strength is unfathomable. Once he recovers, it may be disadvantageous to us!" Fairy Qiongxiao on the side nodded in agreement and advised in unison, "Yes, sister, don't make a big mistake because of a moment of soft heart!" In this way, the leader would not agree to let Fairy Yunxiao marry Li Chen.

"Stop talking. Since Li Chen has agreed to form an alliance with us, Jiejiao, he is our ally. How can we sit back and watch him go? Second sister, third sister, you two go collect the spirit of the Four Symbols Ancestral Witch. I will be responsible for healing Li Chen."

Fairy Yunxiao was concentrating on healing Li Chen at this time and did not care about her two sisters. Fairy Yunxiao's cultivation had reached the peak of quasi-saint and she was so close to Li Chen. If they wanted to kill Li Chen, she would definitely stop them at the first moment.

"Sister! You...Alas! Forget it, Bixiao. Now that things have come to this, let's go and retrieve the spirit of the Four Symbols Ancestral Witch!" Fairy Qiongxiao sighed helplessly. She knew very well that there was no other way at this moment and she could only act together with Bixiao.

You know, even if they wanted to kill Li Chen, there was no chance of success. After all, the distance between a Saint and a Quasi-Saint seemed only one step, but the actual difference in strength was as vast as a chasm!

Elsewhere, Fairy Yunxiao was utterly anxious. Her beautiful eyes were tightly closed, her brows furrowed, and beads of sweat even appeared on her forehead. Not daring to slack off, she continuously poured her immense, unfathomable magical power into Li Chen's body like a surging river.

Every bit of magic power contains Fairy Yunxiao's deep concern and worry for Li Chen. She sincerely hopes that these magic powers can nourish Li Chen's injured body like spring rain, so that he can recover as soon as possible.

You know, the body of a sage possesses extraordinary recovery abilities. That powerful vitality, like a ceaseless spring, constantly repairs damaged tissues and meridians. And now, with Fairy Yunxiao's full support, this recovery speed is even more extreme. In just a few minutes, Li Chen, who was once battered and on the verge of death, recovered at an astonishing speed visible to the naked eye.

Li Chen's rapid recovery was due, in part, to his having reached the realm of a sage, his body having been tempered through countless trials and tribulations, possessing a toughness and tenacity beyond the imagination of ordinary people. However, this was also due to the rare treasure he carried with him: the Hongmeng Pearl. This pearl contained boundless chaotic power, constantly nourishing Li Chen's body. Whenever he suffered a serious injury, the mysterious energy released by the Hongmeng Pearl would automatically activate, accelerating the healing process.

Finally, Li Chen slowly opened his eyes. In an instant, a bright light flashed from the depths of his eyes. He was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was lying safely in the warm and soft embrace of Fairy Yunxiao.

A faint, subtle fragrance filled his nostrils, refreshing and intoxicating. Like the sweet scent of blooming flowers in spring, or the refreshing, pleasant mist of a mountain forest at dawn, it lingered around Li Chen's nose, lingering for a long time. He felt the warmth of the Fairy Yunxiao's delicate body, a gentleness and warmth that gave him the illusion of being above the clouds, a dreamlike, exquisitely beautiful experience.

"Fairy Yunxiao!" Li Chen couldn't help but call out softly. Although his voice was not loud, it was filled with indescribable emotions.

At this moment, Fairy Bixiao on the side pouted her cherry lips and yelled unhappily: "Hmph! Hey! You finally woke up! You made us so worried!" As she spoke, she glared at Li Chen angrily, as if she was very dissatisfied with him sleeping in her elder sister's arms for so long.

Hearing her sister's complaints, Fairy Yunxiao quickly chided, "Third sister, please don't be rude!" Then, she turned to look at Li Chen in her arms, her red lips parted, and she asked in a very gentle tone, "Daoyou Li Chen, are your injuries healed? Do you still feel any discomfort?"

"That's all right! I just want to ask a question. I wonder if the fairy could answer it?" Li Chen bowed slightly, his face full of respect, and asked softly. This question had been weighing on his heart like a huge rock for a long time, making him unable to sleep or eat. Today, he finally found the opportunity to ask the fairy before him for advice.

The fairy Yunxiao flicked her sleeves lightly and smiled slightly, as warm as a spring breeze: "Fellow Daoist Li Chen, you and I are now allies. If you have any questions, just ask. We will tell you everything we know!" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like the sound of nature.

However, the "brainless" Bixiao and the "unhappy" Qiongxiao standing behind Fairy Yunxiao had indifferent expressions on their faces. They kept staring at Li Chen with stern faces, as if they were full of vigilance towards him.

Li Chen took a deep breath, calming his inner excitement. He slowly asked, "I want to know how the Five Elements Ancestral Shamans and the Four Symbols Ancestral Shamans came together." As he spoke, his tone unconsciously tinged with a hint of undisguised anger. He had been wondering if these Five Elements Ancestral Shamans and the Four Symbols Ancestral Shamans were, as in those virtual game worlds, forcibly fused together by the boundless magical power of Tongtian Patriarch.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Yunxiao's beautiful face instantly became solemn. She frowned slightly, shook her head gently, and said slowly, "Fellow Daoist Li Chen, this matter may not be as simple as you think. These twelve ancient witches each possess earth-shattering power, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"They were created from the essence and blood of the ancient god Pangu, each of them possessing unparalleled strength and magical powers. Even someone as powerful as my master, Tongtian, would hardly be able to fully refine and perfectly combine such a powerful being..."

Having said that, Fairy Yunxiao paused for a moment, staring at Li Chen, and continued, "That's why you need to once again engage in a fierce battle with the Ancestral Witch you defeated before! Doing so will not only allow you to further consolidate the power of the Ancestral Witch you have already obtained, but will also enable this power to perfectly merge with your own, thereby unleashing even more powerful and astonishing might.

At the same time, this is also a great help to my master, greatly accelerating the speed and progress of his refining of other ancestral witches. I have to say, this plan is truly ingenious and can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

On the one hand, it will help you to make rapid progress in strength, and on the other hand, it will help our Jiejiao to regain its former remarkable glory!

If you were unfortunate enough to find yourself in a difficult situation battling the Four Symbols Ancestral Witches, rest assured we would assist you without hesitation and do our utmost to create the most favorable conditions for you, ensuring you can overcome the danger and defeat your formidable foe!

Fairy Yunxiao sincerely laid out the grand blueprint of the Jie Sect, telling Li Chen everything without holding back. At that moment, they both shared a clear, unwavering goal: to successfully refine the spirits of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, allowing the Jie Sect to reign supreme and restore its former glory.

Hearing this, Li Chen nodded slightly in agreement, and then said, "Okay, in that case, I agree to continue my alliance and cooperation with you. But let me be frank. If you dare to act recklessly and slaughter innocent people and persecute loyal officials and righteous men after you have revived your forces, then don't blame me for being ruthless and ungrateful. I will definitely not show mercy and will turn against you once again, even at the cost of killing people to uphold the Way of Heaven!"

After saying that, Li Chen resolutely extended his right hand towards Fairy Yunxiao, symbolizing friendship and trust.
