C4555 He Had Given too Much!
"Again? How many times has it been?" Chen Xiao thought to himself.
This kind of thing was too common at this celebration banquet, but he did not like it. If it wasn't for the fact that he had to be the Third Prince's bodyguard, he would have left a long time ago.
Chen Xiao glanced at the people around him and casually said, "Gu Feng, go and send him off."
"Alright, Captain, leave this small matter to me."
Gu Feng stood up.
Gu Feng went up to him and raised his wine cup, saying, "Brother, come, let's drink this cup to repay our lives."
The newcomer was a bit reserved and a bit nervous. He glanced at Chen Xiao and saw that he did not pay attention to him, so he sighed in his heart and gave up on the idea of forcefully getting up.
"Alright, let's drink."
After drinking the cup of wine, the two immediately became warm and started to chat like brothers.
This way, Chen Xiao saved a lot of effort.
When Gu Lanyue saw this, she clenched her fist and spat in a low voice, "This guy is probably going to die from drunkenness tonight. He drank so much."
"Lanyue, let him drink. Today is a celebration banquet, how can we not have wine?" Fu Xue said with a smile.
"Sigh, he still has injuries on his body. Drinking too much will hurt his body," Gu Lanyue said with concern.
Hearing this, Chen Xiao's hand that was raising the wine cup froze. He was a bit embarrassed. He couldn't pick it up or put it down.
Soon, he put down the wine glass and shook his head.
He slapped his forehead and reflected on his actions. "That's right. I was a bit too complacent. Now that the black-robed protector of the evil sect has escaped, he will definitely come back for revenge. I must prepare for the worst. I have to be careful."
He asked, "Has the news been sent back to the Purple Cloud City?"
Zuo Zhao's expression turned serious as he replied, "Captain, the news has been sent back. Lord Zi Hou should have made arrangements."
"Yeah, that's right. I was overthinking it," Chen Xiao said.
Zuo Zhao paused for a moment and asked, "Captain, what are your plans now? Or are you going to follow the Third Prince's path?"
Chen Xiao glanced at the Third Prince, who was chatting happily and calmly. He smiled and said, "Ah, he gave me too much."
As he spoke, he rubbed the storage ring on his hand. There were more than ten bottles of Spirit Fortifying Pills that the Third Prince had given him not long ago, as well as a large amount of natural treasures.
He only had one request, which was to continue being his personal guard and escort him safely back to the Divine Dynasty.
Chen Xiao originally wanted to refuse, but the Third Prince had given him too much, so he could not refuse.
Of course, Zuo Zhao and the others had also received a lot of benefits. In short, the Third Prince was very willing to invest.
Hearing this, the three of them looked at each other.
"..." Zuo Zhao.
"..." Fu Xue.
"..." Gu Lanyue.
Gu Lanyue was stunned for a moment before she chuckled, "Captain, even I felt ashamed when you stared at me with your eyes wide open. Sigh, it's hard to explain."
Chen Xiao touched his face a few times and asked, "Is there? I was very restrained, okay? I didn't agree to him immediately and even pulled him back."
The three of them shook their heads. Fu Xue said, "No, captain. Whatever you want to do, it's written on your face. Although your cultivation is far above the Third Prince's, in terms of scheming and methods, you are inferior to him."
"Right, the Third Prince really grasped your weakness, captain," Zuo Zhao said in a low voice.
Chen Xiao let out a long sigh and smiled in relief. He said, "I didn't expect that the Third Prince would be so willing to spend so much money to rope me in. He hired me to follow him to the Divine Capital. Heh, this is a genuine dozen bottles of Spirit Fortifying Pills. He gave them to me casually. He is really generous."
Zuo Zhao pinched his chin and said, "Captain, do you think we are too ignorant and have misjudged the wealth of the Peerless Dynasty?"
"..." Chen Xiao rolled his eyes at him.
Gu Lanyue narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the Third Prince not far away. She said, "Tsk tsk, as expected of the Third Prince of the Divine Dynasty, one of the future successors of the Divine Emperor. He is really rich."
Fu Xue teased, "What? You are tempted? If you rely on the Third Prince, you will have a chance to become the Divine Empress in the future. Hehe."
"Go away, don't try to trick me. I don't like this kind of soft egg. I'm not interested."
Gu Lanyue retorted.
"Is that so? I don't believe it." Fu Xue laughed.
"I don't care if you believe it or not. Come, let's drink."
"Alright."
"By the way, how far are you and Zuo Zhao? When will you be able to drink your wine?"
"If you talk too much, you will die. Come, eat the meat. Use the meat to block your mouth and make you talk."
Fu Xue picked up a piece of meat, which was twice as big as Gu Lanyue's face, and was about to stuff it into her mouth.
"Ah, I'm leaving. I don't want it."
The two girls quarreled, creating a wonderful scene. The two beautiful and delicate bodies intertwined with each other. They were graceful and curvaceous, and their curves were clearly distinguishable. It was a different kind of scenery.
Chen Xiao chuckled and moved his gaze away.
"How is it? How are your injuries?" Chen Xiao asked.
Zuo Zhao's expression darkened, and he said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to recover in a short period of time. Captain, this trip to the Divine Capital should be very safe. After all, that is the capital of the Divine Dynasty, the territory of the Third Prince's father."
"Mm, I hope so," Chen Xiao said.
In fact, what he was really worried about was the other two successors of the Divine Dynasty, the First Prince and the Seventh Prince.
Now that the Third Prince had defeated the cult, and with his help, he had killed two Longevity Realm experts. His power was monstrous, and he was in the limelight. In this way, it was unknown who would be the next Divine Emperor.
One could imagine that the First Prince and the Seventh Prince would definitely not let this matter rest.
At this moment, a deep bell sound rang out. It was welcoming guests.
"The Patriarch of the Divine Dynasty's Yuan Clan, Yuan Bao, has arrived."
Chen Xiao's brows twitched as he looked up at the sky. He saw a middle-aged cultivator with a thick aura and a robust figure. He had a full beard and wore a purple-golden robe. He came from the sky with a rather calm demeanor.
"A peak Tribulation Transcender with a good foundation. This person is the Patriarch of the Divine Dynasty's number one cultivation clan, Yuan Bao? Heh, interesting. Even such a person personally came to attend the celebration banquet of the Third Prince."
Chen Xiao thought to himself as he sipped his wine and watched the show.
Previously, when the Patriarch of the Yuan Clan, Yuan Hong Chou, was on his way back to the Divine Dynasty, he was ambushed by the experts of the Dark Shrine and died. Even now, it was still a pending case.
In this assassination attempt, the Patriarch of the Chen Clan and the Patriarch of the Song Clan, who were also Immortal Realm experts, died as well.
The Song Clan was the mother clan of the Third Prince, and it was also the second largest cultivation clan in the Unparalleled Divine Dynasty other than the Li Clan.
However, it was very strange that he did not see a single disciple of the Song Clan during the Third Prince's trip to Bian City. It seemed that there was something fishy going on.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, cries of surprise sounded out as they all looked at Yuan Bao.
After all, this was the Patriarch of the Yuan Clan, whose power was heaven-defying. He actually personally came to attend the banquet. The Third Prince had a lot of face.
