Chapter 124: After Great Efforts, No Trace Found
While Chen Zishan was continuously implementing new policies in the Great Qin Empire, one day, a beam of light suddenly flew into the atmosphere of the magic world.
Li Xiaojun sharply sensed this situation.
His divine sense instantly expanded.
Then, he saw a very familiar figure.
"Why is she here?"
Li Xiaojun was surprised.
The figure was none other than his daughter, Liu Hongxia, who had perfected the Tribulation stage.
Upon seeing Liu Hongxia, Li Xiaojun recalled the former fear he felt when being controlled by his daughter.
"How unfortunate."
"It seems this place is not fit for me to stay."
In the next moment, Li Xiaojun quickly appeared in the palace of the Great Qin Empire.
"Master, what brings you here?" Upon seeing Li Xiaojun’s sudden arrival, Chen Zishan was very delighted.
Li Xiaojun didn’t respond but instead pulled out several space magic bags and tossed them to Chen Zishan!
"These contain cultivation resources for you and Li Ziqi; take good care of them. I may need to leave." Li Xiaojun said to Chen Zishan.
"Master, you are leaving? Where will you go?" Chen Zishan hurriedly asked.
Hearing Chen Zishan’s words, Li Xiaojun explained, "Someone from the alliance has arrived; she is a peak Level Eight powerhouse. We have some past conflicts, and I cannot defeat her for now, so I need to find a place to hide."
"What about us if you leave!" Chen Zishan said anxiously.
If someone held a grudge against her master, who knows what would happen if he was gone.
"Don’t worry. If she finds you, just show her the jade slips of the three great magical arts of the Human Race that I gave you. She won’t cause you any trouble; in fact, she will help you."
Having said that, Li Xiaojun simply left.
"Master!"
Chen Zishan shouted, but there was no response.
"Sister, what’s wrong? Did the master come?"
At that moment, a beautiful woman in her twenties rushed over.
Seeing her daughter, Chen Zishan felt a bit disappointed and said, "Master left…"
"Master left? Where did he go?"
"Master said…"
Then, Chen Zishan recounted the events that just transpired.
Upon hearing that Master had left, tears welled up in Li Ziqi’s eyes.
"Does Master not want us anymore?"
"It should not be that way. Master might just be temporarily hiding. Maybe he will come back after a while," Chen Zishan reassured.
The day after Li Xiaojun left Holy Capital City, a powerful figure landed directly in the Imperial City of the Great Qin Empire.
"Are you the Empress of the Great Qin?" Liu Hongxia looked at Chen Zishan, her gaze revealing a hint of curiosity.
"Yes, I am Chen Zishan," Chen Zishan replied, also looking at Liu Hongxia.
She could clearly sense a tremendous threat of death emanating from Liu Hongxia.
"Where is Li Hongjun?" Liu Hongxia inquired of Chen Zishan.
Liu Hongxia had been here for three days.
In just one day, she gained a thorough understanding of the situation on this planet.
After arriving, she discovered that this planet was entirely occupied by the Human Race.
Moreover, the language and knowledge that the Human Race studied were derived from the alliance’s culture.
She learned that the source of all this was none other than the great emperor’s Empress, Chen Zishan!
And the reason Chen Zishan enforced such policies came from the only eighth-level holy magic tutor of the Human Race—Li Hongjun.
Upon receiving this information, Liu Hongxia immediately understood that this sole holy magic tutor, Li Hongjun, very likely originated from the cultivation world of the alliance.
"This senior, my master has already left; I don’t know where he went," Chen Zishan said to Liu Hongxia.
…
On the other side of the magic planet, in the Magical Beast Continent,
This land, once entirely occupied by magical beasts, had now become a continent for large-scale migration of the Human Race.
In one of the migration cities, Li Xiaojun bought a courtyard and settled down there.
Here, he let the system help him hide his cultivation level and appearance, so no matter how Liu Hongxia searched with her divine sense, she could never discover his presence.
In several decades, Li Xiaojun would be able to break through to the human immortal barrier.
So, Li Xiaojun decided to lay low for a few decades, and once he broke through to the human immortal barrier, he would go find Liu Hongxia to settle the score.
At that time, he would definitely spank this daughter until she couldn’t sit down properly.
In the palace of Holy Capital City,
"Are you sure your master is eighth-level?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure his name is Li Hongjun?"
"Yes."
"Hmph, I’ve never heard of that Tribulation stage great emperor named Li Hongjun. Even among those at the Great Ascension stage, there is no one named Li Hongjun, so your master must be using an alias," Liu Hongxia lightly said to Chen Zishan and Li Ziqi.
"Well, we don’t know about that," Chen Zishan shook her head.
"What does your master look like? Is there a picture?"
"Um, no," Chen Zishan shook her head.
"You’re lying!" Liu Hongxia’s imposing aura surged.
"I-I, senior…"
"From what I know, your master was around not long ago. He just left when I arrived? How can I not believe this? Is he scared of me and ran away upon seeing me?" Liu Hongxia asked Chen Zishan and Li Ziqi.
Her eyes locked intensely on Chen Zishan.
"Senior, I…"
"Your expression tells me my guess is true."
Liu Hongxia lightly said to Chen Zishan, "Draw a picture of your master; otherwise, I will have to search your soul."
"Senior, can you not involve us apprentices in your grievances with my master?" Chen Zishan gritted her teeth.
"Don’t worry, I, Liu Hongxia, am not so petty as to draw anger on the younger generation," Liu Hongxia lightly replied, her powerful pressure also receding.
"Alright, I hope you keep your word."
Chen Zishan nodded, then waved her hand, taking out a hand-drawn picture from her magic bag.
When Liu Hongxia saw the picture Chen Zishan brought out, even as a Tribulation stage powerhouse, surprise crossed her face.
The next moment, the corners of her mouth split into a grin.
"Hahaha! Hahahaha…"
"S-senior…"
"Hahaha, I never expected, never expected…" Liu Hongxia laughed and shook her head.
The next moment, her gaze turned to Chen Zishan and Li Ziqi. "I never thought your master would be him. Hahaha, this truly is ‘searching high and low but finding it effortlessly’!"
"S-senior, what grievances do you have with my master? Can you do me a favor…"
"Shut up." Liu Hongxia scolded.
Then, her divine sense spread out like a powerful wave.
Feeling Liu Hongxia’s terrifying presence, Chen Zishan immediately fell silent.
Time ticked by.
In the blink of an eye, several hours had passed.
However, Liu Hongxia’s brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
"Huh? Not on this planet?"
"Has he really run away?"
