Lin Chen's thoughts raced, and he said with a mischievous grin, "Actually, 'wife' is just another way of calling someone a friend, only it applies to men when they call their female friends."
Gu Yuena: "What do females call males?"
"Uh... call me husband!" Lin Chen rubbed his nose. " Yue'er can call me that too; it makes our relationship seem closer."
"Husband?" Gu Yuena frowned slightly, her innocent face showing some hesitation. "Something feels a little strange~"
"Really?" Lin Chen quickly changed the subject. "I think it's great, my wife Yue'er. I hope there won't be any problems with your barrier."
"This was set up by my true form before I went into slumber. Let alone a mere Titled Douluo, even First-Class God couldn't break this barrier!"
"However..." Gu Yuena's purple eyes suddenly fixed on him. "I sense something bad about you. You're lying!"
Lin Chen's expression froze, his heart churning with turbulent emotions. She could sense this? Was she a deity? It seemed she really was...
"What exactly do 'wife' and 'husband' mean?" Gu Yuena looked at him curiously with her cool and pretty face.
" Yue'er, um..."
Gu Yuena gave a soft snort and waved her jade hand. A powerful Divine Power emanated from the Guangyue Hall, directly knocking the women outside the barrier back dozens of feet, but without harming them.
"If you don't tell me, believe me, I'll drag them in and make them grow flowers and plants in the Guangyue Hall!"
"Oh, this..."
Oh no, I've shot myself in the foot!
This fairy dragon has an extremely pure heart; she can sense even the slightest thing I'm hiding. What should I do?
"Alright~" Lin Chen had no choice but to give the correct answer.
Bang! Thump~
The moment he finished speaking, he was sent flying and crashed hard into the wall.
"Hiss... hiss..." Lin Chen hissed in pain, " My Yue'er, you really have the heart to hit me?"
"What if you shout again?" Gu Yuena glared at him with her beautiful eyes.
Lin Chen: "..."
Gu Yuena shouted, "Get out!"
"Alright~" Lin Chen said helplessly, "I'll have to rely on Yue'er to take care of me these next few days. I should go out now, otherwise they'll worry~"
Gu Yuena's cool and beautiful face changed slightly. "You're leaving?"
"Yes!" Lin Chen said solemnly, "Things outside are still uncertain, she needs my help!"
"Her? Your first... first wife?"
"Right!"
Hearing his confirmation, Gu Yuena felt a slight discomfort, but she didn't dwell on it, her expression remaining perfectly calm. "Oh~"
Outside the barrier
At this moment, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were using Martial Soul Fusion Skill. The entire lake seemed to be cut off by the light of the blade, and it fell into a still state, which looked extremely spectacular.
Boom boom boom...
At this moment, Bibi Dong was surrounded by a surge of powerful purple Soul Power, and her Sixth Soul Skill had not caused any damage to the barrier at all.
"Hmm?" Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, then she softly instructed, " Ling Yuan ~"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
"Your subordinate is here!"
"Inspect this barrier and find its weak point."
"Yes!" Upon hearing the voice, the cold and beautiful woman came to the barrier and used her Soul Power to envelop the entire surface of the barrier. After a while, her eyebrows furrowed.
As the only elder in the Spirit Hall who has a deep understanding of barriers, this is why Bibi Dong put her in charge of the Spirit Gathering Mountain Secret Realm.
Buzzing...
At that moment, a powerful energy erupted from within the barrier, directly blasting the women back dozens of feet.
"Hmm?" Bibi Dong frowned slightly and asked, " Ling Yuan, what's going on?"
"This..." A hint of panic appeared on the beautiful woman's face. "Your His Holiness the Pope, I am not sure either, but after my investigation, this barrier seems to... have no weak points!"
"What did you say?" Bibi Dong's exquisite face turned completely serious. If even Ling Yuan had no clue, wouldn't the only option be to destroy it by force?
But she had just tested the strength of the barrier; it was simply impossible for Titled Douluo to forcibly break it...
"Teacher, what do we do now?"
At this moment, Hu Liena and the other women panicked. They had thought that Bibi Dong could easily open the barrier, but they did not expect that even someone as powerful as the Pope was helpless.
Buzzing...
"Aaaaah... Yue'er, I hate you!"
At that moment, a figure flew out from within the barrier and disappeared into the sky.
"Huh?"
Huo Wu raised an eyebrow. "Did something just fly straight into the sky?"
"It looks like something flew up there, but I couldn't see clearly~" Yu Hairou pouted.
Xiao Wu's beautiful face lit up with surprise. "It's Master!"
A few breaths later, a figure in a green robe stepped onto a flying sword and flew through the air. He was tall and straight, with striking sword-like eyebrows, and a beautiful purple snake was wrapped around his neck.
"Hehe... My dear ladies, your husband is back!"
" Brother Lin Chen ~"
"It's Brother Chen ~"
Having not seen each other for nearly two years, Hu Liena, Shui Bing'er, and the other women were extremely excited and rushed forward. Even Bibi Dong behind them was thrilled, but her expression remained calm.
As expected of Lin Chen's first wife!
Seeing Lin Chen being embraced by a group of women, Bibi Dong frowned slightly and gently scolded, "Alright, what kind of behavior is this in broad daylight, in front of so many people?"
Hu Liena and Shui Yue'er quickly stepped out of his arms and looked timidly at their empress teacher and older sister.
Lin Chen touched his nose sheepishly. "Madam, what brings you here?"
Bibi Dong glanced at him indifferently, ignoring him. "Your training period is almost over. You should all come back with us."
Yes~
Before the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, at the Guangyue Hall
"Take your little female dragon and get out of here!"
"Okay~"
Only someone could anger the aloof Gu Yuena to this extent, but he didn't care at all. As long as he could leave a mark in the fairy's heart, he would have achieved his goal.
In no time, the tall and fiery beauty Zi JI, transformed into a dragon, shrinking her size hundreds of times. She slipped under Lin Chen's martial robe and reached his chest and neck.
"Hehe... Yue'er wife, could you please give me a ride home? The round-trip 'tickets' are too expensive~"
Gu Yuena was so angry that her pretty face turned red, and she slapped him so hard that he flew out of the barrier.
Looking at the empty hall, she felt a pang of loss. Her pale purple eyes were lost in thought as she recalled the moments she had spent with Lin Chen.
" Fairy Gu, I'd like to be your friend~"
"Uh... 'wife' is a term used to refer to a girlfriend."
" My Yue'er wife, don't worry, I'll heal your wounds sooner or later!"
Gu Yuena's lips curled slightly as she murmured, "Naive husband, how could a mere mortal like you possibly understand the murderous aura of the Asura God King?"
Several dozen breaths later...
The clone in the inner hall slowly dissipated and returned to the main body. At that moment, the sleeping Silver Dragon King's aura gradually stabilized, and he no longer leaked Divine Power outward.
