The energy Chen Ling had released earlier was incredibly powerful, and the twelve Star Leaders had tracked it down like hounds.

Before they even arrived, everyone in the hot spring resort could sense the presence of the twelve Star Leaders.

This was an overwhelmingly powerful aura that they couldn’t resist.

Everyone’s hearts tightened. What was up now?

Please, don’t come any closer!

Today, they had experienced the end of the world and the ups and downs of life. At this moment, all they wanted was to lie down, rest, and contemplate life.

Just as one wave of events had settled, another had arisen, and they were starting to feel overwhelmed.

“The twelve Star Leaders!?”

Yan Ran had more interactions with the twelve Star Leaders and had felt their aura before, so she recognized them immediately.

She couldn’t help but wonder: What were the twelve Star Leaders here for? Could it be that they were looking for Chen Ling?

Don’t come! Run away, Star Leaders!

Yan Ran didn’t know why she had this thought. She just had a feeling that today she might witness an event as significant as the one earlier, one for the history books.

As for Sui Li’er, she didn’t bother with all these thoughts. She simply smiled in Chen Ling’s arms, looking up at her new pet.

The more she looked, the more amusing it seemed to her.

A human-like dark cloud, with eyes and a mouth, capable of talking – it was truly magical!

At this moment, the Vengeance Cloud was contemplating its escape:

Damn it! In the past, I was the one binding others! Today, I’ve been bound myself. It’s a complete disgrace! I must find a way to escape; I will never be enslaved.

Then, Chen Ling, with Sui Li’er in tow, flashed to the ground.

Everyone immediately got a clear view of the dark cloud that Sui Li’er was holding, and they all wore strange expressions.

What was this rope she had?

They simply couldn’t comprehend Chen Ling’s methods.

Whoosh!

Pisces Star Leader Mi Jiu was the first to arrive at the scene.

To protect her master, she naturally took the lead!

When everyone saw her silhouette, they were all momentarily stunned; why did this figure seem familiar?

Wait, is that… Pisces Star Leader?

I actually saw her in person!

She stood high in the sky, as if she were ruling the world, just like a god… No, wait, just like Chen Ling.

After experiencing Chen Ling’s oppressive aura, they felt like the twelve Star Leaders were just about the same?

But, after all, they were Star Leaders!

Everyone immediately knelt on the ground and shouted in unison, “We greet the Star Leader!” They didn’t dare to raise their heads to look at her.

Mi Jiu saw Chen Ling on the ground as she watched him holding Sui Li’er, playing with her little face while smiling. She felt pleased that her Master seemed to be in a good mood.

Woosh!

Chen Tianming also arrived shortly after. He had been in the Fire Nation, so he had a faster journey. However, upon arriving, he didn’t go to see Chen Ling first; he went to see Mi Jiu. But Mi Jiu was looking at Chen Ling with admiration in her eyes.

This made him feel a pang of jealousy.

〚 Ding~ Target, Chen Tianming, is jealous. -0 points! 〛

Chen Ling was gently squeezing Sui Li’er’s little face.

“Hey… be gentle… don’t pinch so hard…” Sui Li’er blushed, gently evading his touch. Although she said not to, she continued to earn points for Chen Ling:

〚 Sui Sui is shy~ +1 billion points~ 〛

Chen Ling noticed Chen Tianming’s jealousy and lifted his head slightly, locking eyes with him.

Chen Tianming’s heart skipped a beat, and he squinted his eyes; what should I do now? Should I reveal my identity? Should we fight? How can I win against Chen Ling?

Chen Tianming knew Chen Ling’s strength better than anyone.

“Tianming, can you help me conceal my Master’s identity, please?” Mi Jiu’s voice suddenly appeared in Chen Tianming’s mind.

Chen Tianming: ???

He turned to look at Mi Jiu as if he had seen a ghost.

… Master?

Your Master!?

Since when did you become his disciple?

Oh no… oh no…

In novels, female disciples always end up falling for their Masters…

Chen Tianming felt a bitter taste in his heart.

“Okay?” Mi Jiu asked again when she saw he hadn’t responded.

Woosh!

The Leo Star Leader arrived.

“Roar~ Let me see where the master of the sun is!” Shi Feng was a battle maniac. The more formidable someone was, the more excited he became.

With his wild, golden, disheveled hair, he looked like a golden-maned lion king, with a smile on his face that showed his love for combat.

Chen Tianming had the same smile at the beginning, but later, he couldn’t muster even a hint of a smile when he saw Chen Ling…

The Sagittarius Star Leader also arrived: Mingyue Luli!

If there were elves in this world, she would undoubtedly be one. With her exquisite face, delicate and perfect features, and those dreamy elven ears, she looked completely different from Mi Jiu.

Mi Jiu’s beauty was like that of a mermaid under the sea, stunning yet grounded, with a touch of cuteness, somewhat resembling Sui Li’er. However, Mingyue Luli was ethereal and belonged to the same category as Chen Ling. At first glance, you’d find her breathtaking, wondering why someone could be so beautiful.

She had a tall and unparalleled figure, giving her one of a kind royal beauty.

The Star Leaders who were originally in the Fire Nation arrived quickly. Soon after, the Water Nation’s Star Leaders also joined them.

Cancer Star Leader: Zhu Yi had slightly longer hair covering half of his face, wore glasses, and donned a white lab coat. He arrived with a self-made flying device.

Scorpio Star Leader: Xin Zhi’an was another mesmerizing earthly beauty.

Libra Star Leader: Zhong Lechen

Aquarius Star Leader: Feng Ling

Gemini Star Leader: Yun Yan appeared frail and her eyes seemed lackluster, giving off a somewhat unhealthy beauty.

Taurus Star Leader: Dongfang He

Virgo Star Leader: Qianhui

Capricorn Star Leader: Shi Yu

These last two Star Leaders were best described as fairies.

The stronger one’s power, the more attractive they looked. As they were the ceiling of power, they were undoubtedly beautiful. However, not many people knew what they originally looked like before becoming Star Leaders. After all, there weren’t many who knew about them before they took on this role.

But Mi Jiu was definitely beautiful, or else why would Chen Tianming like her so much?

As all the twelve Star Leaders gathered in the Flame Blue Secret Realm, the people below were stupefied.

The aura of a single Star Leader seemed ordinary to them after experiencing the terror of Chen Ling. But with all twelve Star Leaders gathered, they couldn’t help but feel fear creeping in.

“We welcome the Star Leaders!” Everyone shouted at the top of their lungs, afraid they might not be heard and wanting to show their utmost respect.

In their hearts, they wondered; what is this about? Could they be here to execute the ‘Execution Edict’? Did they come here for Chen Ling?

But this is not our concern!

Mi Jiu’s eyes narrowed, feeling that things had become complicated.

Everyone would definitely notice Chen Ling. They were all kneeling, while he stood there holding Sui Li’er. But Mi Jiu couldn’t force Chen Ling to kneel, even if she wanted him to. Even if Chen Ling did kneel, she wouldn’t be able to bear it!

However, those around them who were kneeling cast fearful glances at Chen Ling.

In their hearts, they were thinking; Big brother, are you guys going to fight? Can you go somewhere else to do it?

If they start fighting, any spell that grazes them will surely be fatal.

“Chen Ling…”

Sui Li’er also noticed the twelve Star Leaders in the sky and whispered in fear, “Please don’t fight…”

She wasn’t worried about Chen Ling being unable to defeat them. Chen Ling was the Lord God, after all. She was simply afraid that he might lose control again and genuinely terrify her. The size of her psychological trauma was immeasurable.

They had just come together, and she didn’t want to be separated from him. For a long time, she might be on edge.

Chen Ling heard this and smiled at her, “Who are you talking to?”

“You…” Sui Li’er pouted, and her dimples reappeared.

“Who am I?”

“You…”

Sui Li’er pursed her lips and blushed. “Husband…”

“In the future, if you call me by my name, I’ll spank you.”

“Wha… no, Husband…”

Sui Li’er blushed and quickly snuggled into Chen Ling’s arms, forgetting everything else. She felt incredibly happy.

Even now, she found it hard to believe that she was really with Chen Ling.

〚 Ding – Sui Sui abnormal emotions +1 trillion points. 〛

At that moment…

Sagittarius Star Leader Shi Feng was the first to make a move. From a height of a hundred meters, he dived headlong towards Chen Ling.

Mi Jiu was alarmed. She knew Shi Feng’s temperament; he loved to fight. But today, he was really pushing his luck!
