Chapter 1554: Reward

After the fall of the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor, the Demons Calamity of the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy was eliminated. However, the earth, which had been severely damaged during the process, required time to recover.

In the next two days, together with Luo Li, Lin Jing, and Xiao Xiao, Mu Chen led this team to the other parts of the Great Thousand World to wipe out the Demons Calamity. With such powerful assistance, the Demons Calamity were of no threat, so wherever they went, they were quickly suppressed without incident. With such efficiency, it took just two days for the Great Thousand World to regain its peace.

Northern Heavens Continent, Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.

Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy was in a complete state of disorder after the war, and there were a thousand things that needed to be done. However, although the Northern Haven Spiritual Academy had been damaged, they fortunately had not suffered very many casualties. Thus, the atmosphere throughout the whole academy was still exuberant.

Mu Chen’s presence had boosted the morale of all of the disciples. At the moment, they were immensely proud of Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.

Behind the headquarters of the Goddess Luo Association, on a hill.

As Mu Chen and Luo Li strolled together, they looked around their surroundings leisurely. They were standing on a high vantage point, from which they could see a lake that was as clear as a mirror. At that lake, many disciples were busily expanding dormitories and building houses.

The whole Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy was excited and full of vitality at this time. Some disciples saw Mu Chen’s and Luo Li’s silhouettes as they looked on the scene with admiration and envy. This was because the two of them appeared extremely dazzling in the sunset.

“I remember that we created the Goddess Luo Association right there at that spot.” Mu Chen looked at the lake and smiled as he recalled the fond filled memory.

Back then, it was a simpler time of frivolity, but he also met a lot of friends and opponents in this Spiritual Academy during that period. In the passing years, he had grown distant from some of them, becoming almost strangers in this life. This was why Mu Chen was so glad that the girl beside him had never once changed over the past years.

As he stared at her, he took in Luo Li’s porcelain cheeks, which were radiant. At the moment, her lips were curved into a gentle smile.

In the past, they had led many new disciples to set up this Goddess Luo Association together, and after working very hard, they had finally established a presence in Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. Mu Chen was the one smiling now as he reminisced about that time with a sense of deep happiness.

As Luo Li looked out at the distant expansion of Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, she suddenly smiled and said, “I heard that the Five Great Academies are going to merge, and that they are going to let you name the new one!”

“Oh?” When Mu Chen heard this, he was a little surprised.

After a moment, he nodded and smiled as he said, “That is really an important event. In today’s Great Thousand World, spiritual academies are on the rise, and some of them are very strong, even surpassing the Five Great Academies. Now that they are merging, they might even be able to shake the Great Thousand World.”

He then looked up to the sky, smiled suddenly, then said, “As for the name… Let’s name it the Heaven’s Declaration Academy.”

By choosing the namesake of the Heaven’s Declaration List, he hoped that, in the future, this Heaven’s Declaration Academy would be able to nurture truly talented prodigies and leave its mark on the Heaven’s Declaration List.

“Heaven’s Declaration Academy…” Luo Li murmured gently and immediately smiled. “Yes! That’s a good name! It’s very majestic.”

She then added, “But, when the Five Great Academies merge, it seems that our Spiritual Academy Competition will no longer exist.”

Luo Li sat down gracefully on the grass and sighed longingly. She could still remember the days when she had first joined forces with Mu Chen in the Spiritual Academy Competition and defeated numerous strong opponents. Mu Chen sat down next to Luo Li, then quietly stretched out his arm and placed it around her slender waist. He then subtly tightened his grasp to make contact with Luo Li’s slender and beautiful curves.

Immediately after Mu Chen’s action, Luo Li glanced at him, her eyes narrowing. If it had been anyone else but Mu Chen, he would retreat under Luo Li’s sharp gaze.

But, Mu Chen pretended that he did not see anything and chuckled. Then, tightening his grasp, he pulled Luo Li closer into his embrace.

“You are so thick-skinned!” Luo Li pinched Mu Chen’s waist as she teased him.

She then tilted her head and rested it on Mu Chen’s shoulder. In that moment, her body completely relaxed.

The two were cuddled together for a long time before Luo Li glanced at Mu Chen and whispered, “Mu Chen, can y’all defeat the Heavenly Evil Deity this time?”

Mu Chen pursed his lips and remained silent for a while, then said, “The Heavenly Evil Deity has not shown up, and none of us can figure out how strong he will be in the nine-eyed state. So, I’m not sure if we can win, even if we combine the forces of the Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, and all of my strength.”

Mu Chen’s brows were knit tightly together, and although he was full of confidence in front of outsiders, in front of Luo Li alone, he revealed the deepest thoughts in his heart. In his mind, the nine-eyed state Heavenly Evil Deity was too strange and unpredictable.

When she heard this, Luo Li’s pretty face became much more solemn. As she looked at Mu Chen’s frown, her heart ached. This was because she knew how much pressure Mu Chen had been under lately.

“Mu Chen, you’ve done a good job.” Luo Li touched Mu Chen’s forehead, trying to gently calm him and unfurrow his tightly-knit eyebrows.

“Do you remember when you told me that you would one day be the strongest sovereign, who would shield me from every storm and trouble? I can tell you that… At that time… You were already unrivalled in my heart.” Luo Li’s affectionate gaze was as soft as water, her gaze intoxicating.

As she stared at Mu Chen, her delicate cheeks were scarlet. Her voice was a gentle croon, charming and elegant as she said, “Mu Chen, I’m really glad that I met you on that Spiritual Road.”

As the girl whispered in his ear, Mu Chen looked down upon her scarlet cheeks. Deep in his heart, he was struck by myriad emotions. He gazed at Luo Li’s red lips with desire, the feelings in his heart surging like a tumultuous tide.

He then tightened his grasp on Luo Li’s slender waist. As he did so, Luo Li gazed into Mu Chen’s blazing eyes and blinked a little uneasily.

“Luo Li, I’m glad that I saved you on that Spiritual Road, too.” Mu Chen could no longer endure the surging emotions in his heart, and he slightly bowed his head down to kiss Luo Li.

When their lips touched, a deep passion bloomed. Luo Li’s delicate body leaned back on the soft grass as Mu Chen supported his weight and lay on top of her. He glanced at her panicked expression, smirking.

She put her hands on Mu Chen’s chest, biting her lips, then looked away shyly as she asked, “Mu Chen, what are you doing?” She could see that Mu Chen’s gaze was ablaze.

With a grin, Mu Chen waved his sleeve, causing the spiritual energy in the surroundings to spread out, like a thick fog. This spiritual energy fog then covered them completely to prevent any snooping from passersby.

“So, Luo Li, do you want to give me a little reward now?” Mu Chen chuckled.

Recognizing Mu Chen’s intentions, Luo Li hurriedly shook her head.

“Well, you can’t blame me for trying!” Mu Chen smirked as he leaned down to kiss Luo Li again anyway.

Their tongues and lips chased after each other for quite a long time before Mu Chen finally pulled away, both of them breathing heavily. Luo Li bit down gently on her red lips, her gaze was filled with affection and desire.

She stared at Mu Chen, then chuckled at the growing flame that she saw burning in his eyes. That smile made her seem incredibly alluring at that moment. This stunned Mu Chen, as he had not expected that Luo Li could have such an alluring side to her.

“Mu Chen, do you really want a reward?” Luo Li’s voice was tempting and teasing him, like a demoness’.

She had clearly thrown aside all of her previous shyness, as she could feel Mu Chen’s intense passion for her. However, she was not averse to it. Instead, she felt anticipation growing in her own heart. It was like nature and biology had simply taken their courses.

Mu Chen felt his face growing hot as he nodded heavily in reply.

“So, are you still my knight?” she asked him.

“Forever and always, my queen.” Mu Chen held Luo Li’s hand and kissed the back of it gently, while laughing.

“Well then…” Smirking seductively, Luo Li exerted all the force her small body could muster and rolled the two of them over. At this time, she was sitting on top of Mu Chen.

As she looked down at him with an air of royalty, like a majestic queen, she declared proudly, “The queen wants to be on top!”

She then raised her fair, slender neck and took a deep breath, as though she had made a big decision. Then, with flushed cheeks, she gently took off her robes.

As the robes slid off, her perfect figure was revealed. The sunlight shone through the spiritual energy fog as her delicate body became dazzling, like glittering jade. Her full and undulating curves were so mesmerizing that time seemed to freeze.

As Mu Chen gazed at her in awe, she whispered in his ear, “Mu Chen, this is my reward for you.”

The girl smiled softly and looked incredibly alluring as she bent down slowly. At that moment, an intimate aura permeated the entire space.

Then, a slight hum of pain rang out, while the fog enveloped the two intertwined figures, gradually covering them up entirely. All the while, the sunlight was shining brightly down upon them.
