Chapter 342 Gathering Together

As Lin Xiao was lost in his own thoughts, a house enveloped them both with a wave of his hand.

He suddenly pulled Chloe into his arms, reached out and lifted her chin, and said with a smile, "Didn't you ask me before why I brought you here?"

After her initial panic subsided, Chloe did not resist or struggle. Instead, her cheeks flushed crimson, and her eyes darted away, avoiding Lin Xiao's gaze. Her breathing became rapid, her chest rising and falling slightly, as if each breath was accompanied by a tremor.

"I'll tell you now..."

Lin Xiao brought his face close to Chloe's, then gently bit her earlobe and whispered intimately, "I want you!"

Lin Xiao's breath brushed against Chloe's cheeks and neck, making her feel weak all over, as if all her strength had been drained away. Her body trembled slightly, and she finally collapsed into Lin Xiao's arms, like a light feather drifting away in the wind.

Lin Xiao's whispers echoed in her ears, and an unprecedented emotion surged within her. That emotion, like a surging tide, completely overwhelmed her. Her fingers gently grasped Lin Xiao's collar, as if searching for a sliver of support.

Lin Xiao's arms tightened around her, as if he wanted to meld her into his own body. His breath was warm, carrying a faint fragrance, making Chloe's heart beat even faster. Her mind went blank, leaving only Lin Xiao's voice and warmth.

“Lin Xiao…” Chloe murmured softly, her voice trembling slightly.

Lin Xiao smiled slightly and lowered his head to kiss her lips. In that instant, it was as if countless fireworks were exploding in Chloe's mind, dazzling and magnificent. Her body trembled slightly, as if all her senses had been awakened, leaving only Lin Xiao's presence.

Their figures intertwined in the room, as if they had blended into this warm space.

……

Not far from the house, Ying Zheng and his two companions watched as the house shook and dust fell. Xiang Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Youth is truly wonderful!"

Liu Bang stroked his chin and said with a smile, "These past few hundred years have almost driven the immortal masters crazy. If this were our time, I would definitely arrange a hundred or eight thousand immortal masters for them."

Ying Zheng glanced at him and said indifferently, "A hundred or eight thousand probably won't do. The women that the immortal masters value are all stunningly beautiful and highly skilled. Where are you going to find such women?"

Liu Bang smiled and did not refute. Lin Xiao had often chatted with them over the past century, and they had even talked about Lin Wan'er and Hong Ying. They had seen photos of them, and they were all exceptional in both appearance and strength.

Time passed quickly. Liu Che stared blankly at Liu Bang for a moment, then immediately bowed respectfully and asked excitedly, "Ancestor, is it really you?"

Liu Bang smiled and helped him up, patting him on the shoulder with satisfaction. "Not bad! If Kou can go, so can I! Not bad! You haven't disgraced the might of my great Han Dynasty!"

Liu Che felt a little flattered by Liu Bang's praise. Looking at Lin Xiao, who was holding Chloe with her cheeks flushed, he bowed again and said, "Greetings, Immortal Master."

Lin Xiao waved his hand casually, took out a futon and threw it in front of him, then gestured with his chin, saying, "You can sit on it like Liu Bang and the others."

Liu Che did not hesitate. Although he was puzzled, he immediately sat down and felt the strange power, secretly marveling at it.

……

Lin Xiao stood at the end of the river of time, his gaze deep and calm. Behind him, within the long river of national destiny, were the figures of countless historical generals and emperors, some sitting, some standing, their expressions solemn, as if waiting for something.

Li Shimin, Zhu Yuanzhang, Ying Zheng, Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, Liu Che... These figures who once dominated the course of history have all gathered here.

"Immortal Master, what should we do next?" Li Shimin stood up and asked respectfully. His eyes held a hint of anticipation, as if he couldn't wait to participate in Lin Xiao's plan.

Lin Xiao smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over everyone, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable power: "Next, we will head to the modern era. That will be the era when the Kree Gods are most active."

"Modern times?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. "Immortal Master, what are modern times like? Can we, the ancients, adapt to them?"

Lin Xiao smiled, waved his hand, and a series of images of modern society appeared before everyone's eyes. Skyscrapers, bustling traffic, technological prosperity... These scenes made everyone present widen their eyes, as if they were seeing a completely new world.

"Is this modern times?" Liu Bang murmured to himself, his eyes filled with shock. "It's unbelievable..."

"Immortal Master, what can we do in the modern world?" Xiang Yu clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit. "We can't expect emperors like us to drive taxis, can we?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Don't worry, your role goes far beyond this. Although the modern world is peaceful, undercurrents are surging, and the threat of the Khrushchev gods still exists. Your mission is to lie low for now and emerge to protect this world when needed."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions immediately turned solemn. Ying Zheng stood up, his gaze resolute: "Immortal Master, since you have made the arrangements, we will naturally comply."

Lin Xiao nodded, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "Very good. Then, let's set off."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiao waved his hand, and the power of the River of Time surged, enveloping everyone. The next moment, their figures disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, Lin Xiao looked at the gloomy Fengdu Palace in front of him and the Fengdu Emperor slowly walking out of the space in front of him, and nodded slightly: "Is the palace ready? They should go in."

Over the years, he had discussed with the three Heavenly Venerables where Ying Zheng and the others would be placed. Because Lin Xiao knew that the Heavenly Court would become a boundary marker along with the Great Xia God, they could not be placed in the Heavenly Court. Therefore, they chose to place them in Fengdu.

The Emperor of Fengdu pointed to the palace not far ahead and gestured with his lips, saying, "That's it. That's the core area of ​​Fengdu. No one will bother you there."

Lin Xiao nodded slightly, his gaze deep and unfathomable, as if it could pierce through the barriers of time and space. He turned to look at the crowd behind him, his voice low and powerful: "Everyone, this is your temporary refuge. Just wait for time to pass and for you to go to the modern era."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, their eyes shining with determination. Although they came from different eras, they were gathered together because of Lin Xiao, sharing the responsibility of protecting the Great Xia Dynasty.

Lin Xiao waved his hand, signaling everyone to enter the palace. He watched them step into the gloomy and mysterious Fengdu Palace one by one, a strange emotion welling up in his heart.

As the last person disappeared through the palace gates, Lin Xiao turned to look at the Emperor of Fengdu and said softly, "Thank you for your help, Your Majesty."

The Emperor of Fengdu waved his hand and said with a smile, "Senior, you are too kind. It is my honor to serve you."

Lin Xiao smiled slightly and said nothing more. He looked up at the deep night sky, silently reciting his future plans.

As night deepened, the Fengdu Palace appeared even more mysterious and solemn under the moonlight. Lin Xiao's figure gradually disappeared into the night, finally vanishing into the vast darkness.
