My stunning iceberg CEO wife

Chapter 820: Chapter 819: I Am the Fish on the Chopping Block (Part 3)

Mu Chen did not resist being taken away by the Holy Daughter because even if he temporarily fell into her hands, it was better than falling into the hands of the gods of the West Continent. Moreover, being carried by the Holy Daughter allowed him to refine the Seven-Colored Energy, so why not?

Mu Chen could only admit he was careless or underestimated the powerhouses of the West Continent. He thought his frantic escape would succeed, but the terror of these people exceeded his expectations. Now Mu Chen could only secretly refine the Seven-Colored Energy, making his Martial Arts Realm increasingly powerful, hoping to turn the tide or escape.

Next, the Holy Daughter took Mu Chen and fled frantically toward Yun Country, disappearing among the masses. Mu Chen understood well that he should conceal his presence, not emit any aura, and hide away. After all, facing one Holy Daughter was better than facing countless powerhouses.

Mu Chen was very obedient, allowing the Holy Daughter to carry him away, focusing solely on refining the Seven-Colored Energy.

However, less than a minute after the Holy Daughter disappeared, the first to arrive was the Emperor and the Ice Ancestor. But upon arrival, they found not a single shadow.

”You brat, don’t you know how to release a trace of aura that I can sense?” The Emperor cursed loudly but didn’t overthink it, quickly vanished, and secretly probed.

After the Emperor, others arrived, with the same result: the Holy Daughter did not emit any aura and simply left quickly, so they could only conduct a carpet search.

”Do you have the Water God Divine Power?” the Holy Daughter asked.

”Yes, what about it?” Mu Chen opened his eyes and stated seriously.

”That’s good, enter the river and use the divine power to completely hide your aura,” the Holy Daughter said seriously.

”Wife, you want to kill me, and you ask me to find the safest place for you; do you think that’s possible?” Mu Chen laughed and said.

”Scoundrel, who’s your wife? I’m here to kill you.” The Holy Daughter replied coldly.

”I vaguely remember when rolling in bed with my wife, her expression, her gesture, her moans, and...”

”Enough, enough, if you dare say another word, I will crush your neck right now,” the Holy Daughter stated seriously.

”Alright, I understand, but you must promise me not to kill me too soon; I need to restore my Holy Energy first. Even if I die, I want to die with dignity,” Mu Chen said seriously.

Mu Chen guessed that the Holy Daughter didn’t know he had taken the Seven-Colored Energy from the gods of the West Continent, using the time gained to improve his power.

”Fine, temporarily I won’t kill you. Killing you now would attract too many people, which is troublesome,” the Holy Daughter said seriously.

”Then let’s go to the river.”

”Okay.”

Next, the Holy Daughter took Mu Chen to a river, and they entered the water, their clothes becoming damp.

”Water God Divine Power.” Mu Chen enveloped the river, and unnoticed, the two entered the riverbed, where a barrier formed by the Water God Divine Power blocked them, creating an energy shield at the bottom of the river.

”Fire come.” Mu Chen said, conjuring flames, then stripped off his clothes, except for his shorts, to dry them.

”Wife, do you want to undress and dry your clothes?” Mu Chen laughed and said.

”Scoundrel, I’m warning you once more, if you dare to call me wife again, I will crush your neck. Judging by age, I am hundreds of years older than you,” the Holy Daughter stated seriously.

”Oh, so I’ve been with a centuries-old virgin,” Mu Chen said seriously.

”Are you courting death?” The Holy Daughter’s killing intent soared as she spoke.

”Holy Daughter, wait, these people are likely still searching for us outside, let’s not emit any energy. Tomorrow, most of them will be gone, and there’ll be time enough for you to kill me,” Mu Chen said seriously.

”If you know this, then don’t anger me.”

”Understood, I’ll restore my Holy Energy first,” Mu Chen laughed and said.

”Okay.” The Holy Daughter said no more and sat cross-legged.

Mu Chen grinned wickedly, observing the Holy Daughter’s skirt soaked and her skin faintly visible from the water, as shameless thoughts surfaced.

But Mu Chen only indulged his gaze for a few minutes before immediately sitting cross-legged to refine the Seven-Colored Energy.

Mu Chen didn’t know the Holy Daughter’s true intentions—whether she really wanted to kill him—so Mu Chen could only break through to his strongest form to face anything. ℴ

”So strong, so hard to refine.” Mu Chen’s face changed, feeling the Seven-Colored Energy was extremely bizarre and powerful, which might be why the gods of the West Continent wanted to kill him.

”Seven-Colored Energy, does it really only help condense Holy Energy for others to cultivate?” Mu Chen wondered, intuitively feeling this energy was alive; despite being refined and joining the Holy Energy Space, making his energy enormous, the Seven-Colored Energy hadn’t disappeared. It remained Seven-Colored Energy, still traversing through each part of his body, strengthening his physique, very strangely.

But though Mu Chen had doubts, he didn’t dwell on them and continued refining.

If Mu Chen had known that nobody had ever refined the Seven-Colored Energy, his expression would be something to behold.

”What’s going on, is this scoundrel’s aura seemingly getting stronger?” The Holy Daughter sensed Mu Chen’s peculiar aura shift and grew somewhat confused.

”Forget it; it’s only half a day. I’ll leave with him tomorrow morning; he won’t cause too much trouble.” The Holy Daughter said as she closed her eyes again.

While the two sat and cultivated at the riverbed, the outside world had already overturned the place completely. But no one thought they’d be at the riverbed.

The outsiders resignedly dispersed, while Heaven Emperor in Yun Country remained unwilling, searching extensively; the gods of the West Continent did likewise, expanding their search.

As for the Emperor and Ice Ancestor, unable to find them, they hid their presence, waiting contingently.

And so, time flowed rapidly to the next day, and once the gods of the West Continent failed to find them, they left. Heaven Emperor also ceased the search, thinking the Holy Daughter unfindable, and departed, leaving Ice Ancestor departing in futility, while only the Emperor continued hidden observing.

At the riverbed, Mu Chen opened his eyes, having refined all the Seven-Colored Energy, his aura reaching fifteen times the Holy King Peak’s energy, nearing the power of Nihility Realm, terribly frightening.

”Now, truly facing these people, I might be able to escape!” Mu Chen said to himself. Though uncertain about defeating them, he believed escape possible.

At this moment, the Holy Daughter opened her eyes too, immediately looking at Mu Chen and saying: ”Come on, we need to leave here at once.”

”Leave? To where?” Mu Chen asked, puzzled.

”I told you to go, so just go.” The Holy Daughter said seriously.

”Understood, but I want to know if you really intend to kill me?”

”No.” The Holy Daughter said seriously.

”Really?”

”If I said it’s a lie would you believe me?”

”Alright! I’ll just go.” Mu Chen resigned, preferring to confirm in person rather than speculating.

Next, Mu Chen released the Water God Divine Power and emerged with the Holy Daughter onto the river surface, sensing no one, then landed ashore and finally left.
