"How long has it been now?"
Xiao Chen asked the Heavenly Fox Immortal Emperor.
Although he had some awareness of the outside world during his slumber, it was very vague, and he didn't know exactly how much time had passed.
"Seven years," the Heavenly Fox Immortal Emperor replied without hesitation.
"Seven years? That's longer than I expected," Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
"We've been so worried about you all these years, terrified something might happen to you. You're going to do something so dangerous, and you didn't even explain it to us beforehand!" Ye Yanyao chided.
"Do you really have so little faith in me?" Xiao Chen said helplessly. "Besides, didn't I urge you to wait patiently?"
"You weren't clear enough!" Ye Yanyao retorted.
Xiao Chen couldn't be bothered with her and turned to ask the Heavenly Fox Immortal Emperor, "So, the Foreign Races haven't come again in these seven years?"
"No!"
The Heavenly Fox Immortal Emperor shook her head.
