A chat group with hundreds of millions of members, but it's only for chatting.

Chapter 35 Um, how about we go save my wife first?

While chatting in the chat group, Shen Yi walked out of the courtyard he used for experiments and saw Cheng'er, who seemed a little restless.

"Are you... really sure?"

Cheng'er looked at him with some worry, her beautiful eyes filled with concern, a hint of expectation, and a complex mix of emotions—almost like a pie chart.

Her initial intention in descending to the mortal realm was to force Shen Yi to write a letter of divorce, so that Zi'er would give up her mortal desires and return to the Heavenly Court.

Instead of writing the letter of divorce, he was hit by the steel suit that Shen Yi and Yu Ri had put together, which sent his spirit stones flying and almost crippled him.

Later, Shen Yi returned the spirit stone to her, which made her reluctant to take action again. Then, Shen Yi patted his chest and guaranteed that if given a month, he could create a stronger suit of armor and rescue Zi'er honorably.

Now that the time had come, her feelings were even more complicated. As the second princess of Heaven, she naturally did not want to violate the heavenly rules; but as the second eldest of the seven fairies, and the most favored of the seven fairies, Zi'er also wanted to make Xiao Qi happy.

Not to mention that she had gotten along quite well with Shen Yi during this time, otherwise she wouldn't have been so easily fooled by Shen Yi into charging the Emperor Armor.

"If you're still worried, we can have a competition."

Shen Yi pulled off the Tai Chi pendant around his neck, which transformed into a belt with a heptagonal pattern. At the top left of the belt was an orange dot.

"This is...my power?"

Cheng'er raised an eyebrow, looking curiously at the orange dot on Shen Yi's waist.

"That's right, it's thanks to your strength, Second Sister. I had the confidence to save Zi'er."

Shen Yi touched the orange dot, feeling quite emotional.

His imperial armor is still different from the original. The original should have five patterns of gold, wood, water, fire and earth wrapped around a tai chi diagram on the waist, but his power comes from the seven fairies, so it can't be the five elements. Moreover, there is only one orange power on it that belongs to Cheng'er.

"Is this the power you spoke of that can save Zi'er?"

Cheng'er was a little puzzled. The power she gave wasn't strong; it was barely enough to deal with a celestial soldier or something. After a pause, she added, "Also, don't touch me indiscriminately."

Shen Yi: ? ? ?

What does "don't touch me" mean?

Don't say things that could be misunderstood!

He lowered his hands, fastened his belt around his waist, and whispered, "Unite!"

Golden armor pieces appeared around him, then materialized one by one—a dragon's body, eagle's arms, tiger's shoulders, mastiff's back, and rhinoceros's legs. Each piece was inscribed with dense runes, the refining runes that Shen Yi and Yu Ri had painstakingly carved stroke by stroke over countless sleepless nights.

When the light screen faded, the person standing in front of Cheng'er was no longer the mortal Shen Yi in his blue robe, but a warrior in full gold and orange armor, surrounded by a pale orange halo.

"How is it?"

Shen Yi's voice came from under the mask, tinged with a hint of smugness, "Handsome, right?"

"Looks pretty impressive."

Putting everything else aside, this outfit alone is quite intimidating. Cheng'er subconsciously summoned her longsword, her ears burning slightly, but she refused to admit it, "Looking good but being useless is a waste."

"Then let's give it a try."

Shen Yi stretched out his right hand, and a sword light flashed in the void, and the Aurora Sword fell into his palm.

However, unlike the genuine Emperor Sword's Aurora Sword, his sword is not bright white, but orange, which is the power given by Cheng'er.

Without further ado, Cheng'er raised her hand and formed a hand seal, causing her spiritual energy to surge. The long sword in her hand transformed into an orange streak, heading straight for Shen Yi's face. She used half her strength in this attack; even if it couldn't penetrate the armor, it would at least make the opponent flustered.

However, Shen Yi simply turned slightly to the side, and the Aurora Sword drew an arc in front of him. The runes on the sword lit up one by one. While blocking Cheng'er's longsword, he stepped forward and appeared behind Cheng'er in an instant. The back of the Aurora Sword gently patted her shoulder with little force, just enough to make her stagger.

How is that possible!

Although she held back, it's important to remember that Shen Yi is just an ordinary mortal. Her defeat by the Iron Man suit was largely due to the opponent's constant attacks on her spirit stone bracelet. Furthermore, she had only intended to scare Shen Yi, but ended up being startled herself, which caused her to panic and have her spirit stones knocked away.

But now she has already exerted five-tenths of her strength, and this attack is already equivalent to the level of an ordinary immortal!

Startled, Cheng'er immediately felt a surge of competitiveness. She turned and counterattacked, her longsword flashing as she relentlessly thrust at Shen Yi. However, Shen Yi's movements were unbelievably unpredictable. He always managed to dodge her attacks half a beat in advance, then lightly tapped her on the shoulder, back, or side with the back of his sword—each strike precise enough to be unmistakable.

When did this guy become so amazing?

After exchanging more than a dozen blows, Cheng'er finally realized that Shen Yi was holding back and that she was no match for him now.

"I'm not fighting anymore!"

Cheng'er withdrew her spiritual power, her chest heaving slightly. She looked at Shen Yi and his armor with a puzzled expression. "What's going on with this armor? I only injected a little spiritual power, how could it be this strong?"

Shen Yi sheathed the Aurora Sword, removed his armor, and transformed back into the mortal in blue robes. He explained with a smile, "Your spiritual power is indeed not much, but you didn't give me ordinary spiritual power; you gave me spiritual essence. Based on that, I reconstructed the energy circuit, and with the double blessing of the weapon-refining runes, it's equivalent to amplifying your power more than tenfold."

Cheng'er is a deity after all, so she does have the ability to imbue objects with spirit. However, under normal circumstances, even if an object has a spirit, it is only "spiritual". It may take thousands of years for it to develop its own intelligence, just like that monkey that has already caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace.

"Although you don't understand, you do have the ability to protect yourself."

Cheng'er looked at Shen Yi with a hint of jealousy. She was considered the most combative of the seven fairies; otherwise, she wouldn't have fought Black Eagle with fists instead of using magic in the original story. But now, she had actually lost to a mortal.

"Um... how about I make you a set after I rescue Zi'er?"

Noticing the resentment in Cheng'er's eyes, Shen Yi made a suggestion.

"Could you make me another set?"

Cheng'er was a little surprised. She thought it was already amazing that they could make such a set of armor. How could they possibly make another set?

"certainly."

Shen Yi said that the technology side is best at mass production. If there were enough natural materials, I could easily provide one for each person.

"That's great! By the way, I don't want your gold one, I want the orange one."

Cheng'er immediately began her customization plan, continuing, "And the helmet, I want a crystal one—you can't see your face like that..."

Shen Yi: ……

Um, how about we go rescue my wife first?
