Chapter 1037: No Impression

Zhang Lie sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

Li Zongming informed him, "You slept for a day and a night."

Zhang Lie's eyes widened. "Is that so? Maybe I really was too tired."

Zhang Lie had a sip of tea and reached out for a snack on Li Zongming's platter, but he blocked Zhang Lie's grasp immediately. Zhang Lie grumbled, "Hey, don't be so stingy! It's just a few snacks!"

Even when they were dividing up the superior worlds' energy, Li Zongming had been more generous than this.

Li Zongming explained happily, "My daughter made them."

"Qianlin made them? Then I must insist on having a few," Zhang Lie replied.

Li Zongming pointed at the basket to the side, which had been spatially locked. "Yours are over there."

Zhang Lie walked over and broke the lock. Thanks to the spatial seal, the snacks were still warm.

If anyone else were to see that someone had invoked a spatial lock just to preserve the temperature of a few snacks, they would surely spit out blood. This was the equivalent of killing mosquitoes with a railgun—it would have been more than sufficient to let the snacks cool, and then to warm them up again later.

This was the privilege of a king of the realm, who could do whatever he wanted—even tear apart space just to kill a mosquito.

However, neither Zhang Lie nor Li Zongming found anything wrong with using a spatial lock to preserve these snacks. Li Qianlin herself had made them; so what if they preserved it with a spatial lock? No amount of money or strength could buy such snacks.

Zhang Lie was peckish given that he had just woken up. He stuffed a square of what seemed like cake into his mouth, finding it sweet and fragrant, soft and gelatinous. He hurriedly consumed a few more mouthfuls. Brimming with love, he asked, "Did Qianlin and Dong Husky come over?"

Li Zongming nodded. "To see you, but they left since you were resting."

"Really?" Zhang Lie glanced at Li Zongming skeptically.

Li Zongming asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Lie replied, "That's not how I remember it..."

Li Zongming rolled his eyes. "You were sleeping. What's there to recall?"

"Perhaps, but given my strength, I should be able to sense something no matter how soundly I was sleeping."

"Why would I lie to you? Right, what do you mean by Dong Husky?" Li Zongming changed the topic.

"I'm referring to Dong Mingxing, of course."

"Why call her Husky?"

"A husky is a breed of dog we have on Earth. It's very mischievous. The first time I saw Dong Mingxing, I thought she was beautiful; the second time, I thought she was beautiful and with an interesting personality. The third time, I thought she was beautiful and with an interesting personality, but troubled and problematic. The Nth time, I realized she was a husky disguised as a beautiful woman."

Li Zongming sipped his tea. "Mingxing seems to be interested in you."

"I'm not interested in her!" Zhang Lie replied.

"She's a tremendous beauty, as well as a skilled expert of the Zongming world."

Zhang Lie chuckled coldly. "If I had to be interested in every stunning beauty in the realm, I'd be dead."

Li Zongming laughed. "I mean, she's very, deeply, interested in you."

"I'm not interested."

Li Zongming glanced at him skeptically. "I'm serious. I've never seen Mingxing behave like this with another man. To you, she really might—"

Zhang Lie rolled his eyes. "I have no interest in her."

Li Zongming smiled happily. "It looks as though you really are devoted to my daughter. I'm very satisfied. You've passed my test."

Zhang Lie replied, "There's no need to test me. My feelings toward Li Qianlin, in this life or the last, and even in the future, will never change."

Li Zongming waved a hand. "Alright, you don't have to prove anything to me anymore. To me, you've long since become my son-in-law already."

"I'm serious." He had loved Li Qianlin in his past life, and he would continue doing so in this one.

Li Zongming replied, "It looks like it's almost time for the meeting, and you've already rested. We should set off now. Do you want to say farewell to Qianlin?"

Zhang Lie stuffed the remaining snacks into his mouth, swallowed them all, and then drank a sip of tea. He shook his head. "There's no need. We'll just be a few days—how long could the meeting last?"

"In that case, let's set off." With a wave of his hand, Li Zongming summoned a dimensional portal.

They had been to the superior kings' specialized meeting world once, and they were aware of its coordinates. Now that Li Zongming was a superior king himself, he could open a passageway to it without any external intervention.

Zhang Lie and Li Zongming stepped through the long tunnel and back into that unusual world, in which scarlet flames formed a sea, a skeleton from an ancient graveyard was stomping over the ground, ten huge suns hung over their heads, a mysterious black fog spread through the air, a shower of rain fell continuously through the sky, and cold frost crept over the ground.

All sorts of unusual phenomena made themselves known—none physical, none reasonable, but all following some mysterious harmony.

This unusual world hadn't changed much despite what had happened to the third realm since their last visit. The main difference was a patch of empty land—what remained of the fight between Zhang Lie and the troops of the superior kings of antiquity.

Having been here before, they didn't need a guide to bring them toward the castle held up by nine great statues. In the meeting room at the very top, they found no one at all present.

Li Zongming smiled. "It looks like we're the first."

The moment Li Zongming sat down, the suns in the sky gave off a blinding glare, as though they were about to explode. Zhang Lie turned his head. "They're coming."

A portal opened in the air, through which blinding sunlight shone.

A figure wrapped up in the golden sunlight emerged from the portal. Beneath his feet were scarlet flames, and to his back, ten bright suns. A parade of a hundred suns followed behind him. The ground far beneath him began to smoke and char, and the air turned arid. The temperature rose to a frightening extent.

The solar king was the first to arrive. This time, he didn't bring a hundred suns with him. This meeting, unlike the last one, wasn't designed to impress and suppress Li Zongming with their strength.

Neither did the kings need any bodyguards, since none could guard them but existences on a similar level as they were. The kings did possess such strong subordinates, but they couldn't be moved around or redirected at will.

Zhang Lie turned to Li Zongming. "Your Majesty, look at the solar king's impressive entrance! Don't you want to be like him?"

Li Zongming folded his arms. "I wouldn't do something that wastes so much energy."
