C4431 Nickname Blood Hand
Li Zhan said with a hint of meaning.
Chen Xiao sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. He did not say anything. He was too lazy to get angry at such a quarrel between uncle and nephew.
The Third Prince also followed suit. He nodded and said, “Uncle Wang, you are right. I will remember it.”
Although his words were soft, his attitude was firm. He forcefully retorted Li Zhan.
Seeing this, Li Zhan let out a long sigh and said, “Do as you please. You have grown up. Remember when you were playing with Xuan Er when you were young. I even taught you how to cultivate. Times have changed.”
His eyes flashed with nostalgia as he recalled the past.
The Third Prince did not respond. This was useless to him. His relationship with Li Zhan was not that close.
Seeing that the Third Prince did not respond, Li Zhan signaled with his eyes.
Then, Li Haoran stood up and took a few steps forward. He cupped his hands at Chen Xiao and said, “Your Excellency Blood Hand.”
“Yes,” Chen Xiao replied indifferently.
Li Haoran was dressed in a long robe. He looked calm and at ease. He was quite elegant. As expected of one of the top sword immortals in Zhan Tian City, his bearing was extraordinary.
At this moment, Li Haoran stared coldly at Chen Xiao and said provocatively, “It is my fault for being ignorant. I have never heard of a hidden expert called Blood Hand. Hmm?”
His words were full of provocation. He was clearly targeting Chen Xiao.
The Third Prince became anxious. He looked at Chen Xiao, afraid that he would not be able to hold back and cause unnecessary trouble.
Chen Xiao ignored the Third Prince's gaze and replied, "The Divine Realm is so big and there are many strong people. Isn't it normal for you to not have heard of it?"
"Heh, don't blame me for speaking too much. It's unavoidable that a powerful immortal-level expert would suddenly appear." Li Haoran continued to question.
"Hmph, do I need you to teach me how to do things?" The Third Prince said.
Li Haoran immediately lowered his head and said, "Yes, the Third Prince does things as he wishes. I'm just worried that this person has an unknown background and has evil intentions."
In fact, Li Zhan had already expressed that he wanted to embarrass Chen Xiao. However, when he realized that the Third Prince's attitude was strong, he tactfully took a step back and let Li Haoran take over to control Chen Xiao for him.
One had to know that Chen Xiao was now pretending to be a powerful expert and the Third Prince's personal bodyguard.
Li Zhan was hitting the Third Prince's face by directly confronting him. It would be very unpleasant if he were to ride on his neck.
If it was only a conflict between Li Haoran and the hidden expert, he could easily control the situation and decide on his own.
Obviously, the Third Prince knew this as well. The two of them had come to an agreement.
He looked at Chen Xiao and shot him a questioning look. Chen Xiao ignored him.
"Nonsense! Li Haoran, don't slander me. I don't think you have any grudges with me, right?" Chen Xiao squinted his eyes and retorted.
"Don't blame me, Your Excellency. I was just being cautious. I didn't mean to make things difficult for Your Highness. If Your Highness is really deceived by some evil person, it will be a big deal. How can I let it go?"
Li Haoran said righteously, full of confidence.
The Third Prince frowned when he saw this. "What do you think you should do? What do you think, Uncle Wang?"
Li Zhan remained silent when he heard this. Wu Gan and Li Xuan stood to the side and watched this scene coldly.
Li Haoran continued, "Recently, the Black Sky God Cult has been rampant. I am afraid that Your Highness will be deceived by this person. Why don't you let me spar with him? I can also help you check it out. If this person is evil, he will be killed on the spot. Your Highness, what do you think?"
"This..."
The Third Prince thought for a moment and cursed in his heart.
What this old man said made sense. The most important thing for the Wushuang Dynasty right now was that the Black Sky God Cult was rampaging, and it was showing signs of spreading to the dynasty.
Once it spread, it would definitely cause great chaos, which would be unfavorable for the dynasty.
At present, the cultivators in the dynasty had reached a consensus that they had to guard it strictly and find an opportunity to destroy the Black Sky God Cult.
The Third Prince had come to Battle Sky City with the intention of recruiting Li Zhan to help the dynasty deal with the Black Heavens Divine Sect. Previously, the Divine Emperor had personally ordered Li Zhan and the other generals of the dynasty to join forces to eliminate the Black Heavens Divine Sect.
However, they were all pushed back by various reasons, or delayed. This delay lasted for two hundred years. They could only watch as the Black Heavens Divine Sect's forces grew stronger and stronger, gradually becoming an unstoppable force.
At this critical juncture, they finally realized that things had gotten out of hand and wanted to make up for it.
Just as the Third Prince was hesitating whether or not he should ask Chen Xiao for help, Chen Xiao said directly, "Sparring? Alright, my hands are itchy. It's good to have a sparring session."
The Third Prince's face lit up with joy. He finally heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the two sides would start fighting at any moment.
If that happened, it would be very embarrassing.
If it was just a sparring session, it would be much more controllable. At the same time, he also wanted to know if this Chen Xiao's clone really had the strength of an immortal-level.
"Uncle Wang." Thinking of this, the Third Prince looked at Li Zhan.
Li Zhan was expressionless. He only nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's have a sparring session. We will stop when we reach a certain point. It will also allow me to understand the methods of this hidden expert. Please!"
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Li Zhan simply nodded.
One wanted to probe, and the other wanted to take the opportunity to establish his might. It could be said that they were on the same page. It was unknown who would win in the end.
Soon, the group arrived at the backyard of the prince's mansion. It had been emptied out a long time ago, and only the two sides were standing opposite each other.
Li Zhan glanced around and confirmed that there was no problem. He said, "Let's do it here. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I'll set up a barrier first."
"Mm, Uncle Wang, you are really thoughtful," the Third Prince said with a smile.
He swept his spiritual sense around and confirmed that there was no tampering with this place. It was just an ordinary backyard, so he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
Li Zhan was actually so confident that Li Haoran alone could defeat Chen Xiao?
He didn't know, but it should be a result soon.
Li Zhan raised his hands and released his magic power, setting up a huge barrier that covered an area of a thousand feet, almost covering the entire backyard.
After doing all this, Li Zhan looked at Li Haoran and said, "Be careful, don't hurt the relationship. That won't be good."
In other words, he told Li Haoran not to attack too hard. It could be said that he had completely looked down on Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao was a little angry. Although he knew that this was a provocation from the other party.
"Humph."
He snorted coldly and didn't say much. Since the other party wanted to make such a scene, he also liked cooperating with the other party. With Li Haoran's strength, he was confident that he could deal with him.
