Chapter 1265 Homeland

After Liya left the scene, the Lord looked at the darkened sky with a solemn expression on his face.

"The Immortal Monarch, huh?" The Lord mumbled to himself, lost in thought. "No matter what happens to me, I must protect Earth at all costs. This is his homeland, after all."

The following day, Yuan rose from his bed early in the morning.

"Is it morning already…?" Chu Liuxiang mumbled in a tired voice as she slowly sat up on the bed rubbing her eyes.

"Yes," Yuan confirmed as he slightly lifted the curtains, allowing the early sun to shine into their room.

"Take your time, I'll be training with the others first. Of course, you don't need to participate if you don't have the energy— I won't blame you."

Hearing his words, Chu Liuxiang collapsed back on the bed and said, "Then I'll sleep for a few more hours. If you're still training by then, I'll join you."

"Okay." Yuan nodded as he left the room through the balcony, before going straight to the training grounds. _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

'I thought I would be able to last the whole night after reaching Spirit Grandmaster and improving my stamina, but alas, I still have a lot of training to do…' Chu Liuxiang released an internal sigh, closed her eyes, and swiftly drifted back into a peaceful slumber with a warm smile on her face.

Shortly after Yuan arrived at the training ground, Li Jinxi showed up with an eager expression on her face.

"Good morning. You're early." Yuan greeted her with a bright smile.

"You too." Li Jinxi replied.

Seeing Li Jinxi alone, Yuan couldn't help but recall his encounter with Jin Xi inside the Nameless Emperor's Tomb, as well as Tian Xin's feelings for her.

"Yuan…? What's the matter?" Li Jinxi was a little startled when Yuan suddenly began tearing up.

"Hm? Oh, sorry." Yuan quickly noticed it and immediately wiped his eyes.

"Are you okay?" Li Jinxi asked him in a concerned voice.

"Yes, I am okay. I just remembered something, that's all."

"You can tell me, you know."

"I'll tell you if you can defeat me," Yuan said with a mysterious smile.

"Are you sure you want to fight me while in that state? I won't hear any of your excuses if you lose." Li Jinxi said.

"I won't make any excuses if I lose, I promise." Yuan chuckled.

Li Jinxi didn't want to waste any more time chatting and retrieved her weapon.

Yuan responded by summoning the Empyrean Overlord.

"Come, show me how much you've grown." Yuan beckoned her with a provoking smile.

Li Jinxi immediately kicked her feet, launching herself at him like a rocket.

Clang!

Yuan blocked her incoming strike, but Li Jinxi's strength was so immense that it pushed him back several steps.

"Oh? Not bad." The smile on Yuan's face widened.
