C4559 A Reward from the Divine Emperor!
This made Song Tianyou feel depressed.
He went over to the Third Prince's side and whispered, "Third Brother, tell your uncle the truth. Who is this Senior Blood Hand and what kind of agreement did he make with you?"
The Third Prince casually laughed and said, "Uncle, this is wrong. Senior Blood Hand is a senior. How would I know anything else? I wouldn't dare to investigate. If Senior Blood Hand finds out, he will be in trouble."
He denied it and tried to cover it up.
He did this out of selfishness. If he did not do it for himself, he would be killed by the heavens. The agreement between Chen Xiao and him was a secret, so how could he allow outsiders to know about it?
Although the Song Clan was the Third Prince's mother clan, and Song Tianyou was his biological uncle, the Song Clan was the Song Clan, and he was himself. There was still a distance between the two of them, especially when it came to the matter of a powerful expert. The Third Prince was very clear in his heart.
Moreover, as long as he could maintain a good relationship with Chen Xiao and help him climb up.
At that time, Song Tianyou had no other choice but to follow him wholeheartedly. This was what the Third Prince wanted the most.
How could Song Tianyou not know? He looked deeply at the Third Prince and said in a deep voice, "Third Brother, you've grown up and have more ideas."
The Third Prince remained expressionless. "Yes, it was all thanks to uncle's teachings."
"Heh, your mouth is not forgiving at all. Fine, since senior doesn't want to see me, then I won't see you. Come, today, uncle will have a drink with you. If you don't get drunk, then you won't return."
Song Tianyou was rather carefree and did not continue to pester him.
The Third Prince relaxed in his heart. "Today, I will have enough wine and beauties. I will definitely make uncle satisfied."
"That's good. Let's go."
In the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
Chen Xiao and the others blew the wind, dispersing the drunkenness in their bodies. They immediately became much more sober.
"Captain, that Song Tianyou is quite tactful. He did not force me. Heh, in comparison, that Yuanbao person is..."
Gu Feng mocked and said with contempt.
Although the Divine Dynasty's Yuan Clan was strong, it was incomparable to the Purple Cloud City of the Kui Nan Province. They did not interfere with each other's business. Naturally, he could speak freely and casually.
If Yuan Hongchu was still around, he would be a true Immortal Longevity Realm expert, which would make people feel fear. However, Yuan Bao was only a mere peak Tribulation Transcender, so he was nothing.
Chen Xiao laughed and said indifferently, "The Yuan Clan is the number one cultivation clan in the Divine Dynasty. Their reputation is not good. They have done many dirty things in secret and have made enemies with everyone. If I accept their invitation, then my brain is probably in a mess and I can't think straight."
In fact, no matter what price Yuan Bao offered, Chen Xiao would not agree. It was only for self-protection.
Although the Longevity Cultivator was strong, he was not invincible. He did not want to deal with such a hot potato.
On the other hand, the Third Prince had the protection of the Divine Emperor. His righteousness was still there, but he had the Unkillable Golden Body, which was much safer.
When Gu Feng heard this, his eyes lit up. He said, "Captain, that's brilliant. So that's how it is."
"Captain, you have thought about it thoroughly. I really didn't think of so much." Zuo Zhao scratched his head.
Fu Xue rolled her eyes. "You should recuperate well and don't talk too much."
At the side, Gu Lanyue picked up a pill and stuffed it into her mouth. While she silently refined it, she said, "Captain, are you really planning to go to the Divine Capital with the Third Prince? That place is very far from Violet Cloud City. If something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome."
"It doesn't matter. We have to go and challenge it. Besides, he gave us too much. In the end, Violet Cloud City is still too poor. Compared to the Wushuang Dynasty, it is a lot worse."
Chen Xiao said in a deep voice.
The Third Prince had taken out so many Spirit Fortifying Pills for him to use. Violet Cloud City probably only had the Violet Gold Marquis' wealth, and he did not have it.
"Then I will go as well," Gu Lanyue suddenly said.
Not only her, but the three of them also looked over.
Chen Xiao frowned. "All of you go back and stay by my side. You will be a burden instead."
He had his own methods for this trip to the Divine Capital. He was sure that he could protect himself.
"..." The four of them looked gloomy and somewhat helpless.
Zuo Zhao looked dejected as he said, "Captain, you really hurt people when you speak the truth."
"Ah, burdensome. Captain, I feel very uncomfortable." Gu Feng looked like he was injured as he sighed.
Fu Xue was expressionless as she gently stroked the Green Dragon Ring in her hand, looking thoughtful.
Gu Lanyue smiled bitterly and said, "Compared to your strength, we are really burdensome. Alright, let's listen to Captain."
"En." The three of them agreed.
Chen Xiao nodded and said with satisfaction, "That's right. Come, drink."
"Eh, Captain, I still have injuries," Zuo Zhao said.
"Can't you drink if you have injuries?"
"Of course I can drink. Drink."
"Drink."
The few of them looked at each other and smiled. Everything was said and done.
At this moment, a powerful pressure came from afar, quickly approaching Jingbian City like a mountain pressing down on them.
Chen Xiao's heart sank as a heavy feeling came from the depths of his soul, causing him to be shocked.
"This is... the aura of a Longevity Realm expert. Who could it be that suddenly appeared in such an inconspicuous place like Jingbian City?"
He was puzzled as his gaze became serious as he looked into the sky.
Gu Feng and the other three were puzzled. They stopped and asked, "Captain, what's wrong?"
Fu Xue's expression turned cold as she said, "What a powerful aura. The pressure is very strong. It is coming from Jingbian City. Captain, is it a Longevity Realm expert?"
"Immortal expert?" Zuo Zhao was shocked.
Chen Xiao nodded, "Yes, I'll go take a look. You guys stay here and don't move around."
"Yes, captain."
"Got it, captain."
Immediately, his figure moved and disappeared from where he was.
In the blink of an eye, a white and mighty figure crossed several kilometers and arrived above Jingbian City in one step. He looked down with a face that was neither sad nor happy.
In an instant, a towering sword intent pierced through the clouds. It was incomparably sharp, and its perception caused one's entire body to feel cold.
The cultivators in the great hall sensed his arrival and rushed out one after another.
"This, what a shocking sword intent. Just the aura that it emits seems to be able to kill me. Just where did this person come from?"
"Idiot, you don't even recognize the Great General of the Divine Dynasty?"
"It's him, Li Jue Chen, the current Great General of the Unparalleled Divine Dynasty, the person the Divine Emperor relies on the most. I never thought that he would actually come here personally."
The crowd discussed animatedly, feeling extremely shocked.
The Third Prince's expression was solemn as he cupped his hands and hurriedly said, "Greetings, Great General."
Li Jue Chen glanced at the Third Prince, his face expressionless and somewhat stiff. Finally, he squeezed out a smile and said in a clear voice, "The Divine Emperor is gratified that Third Highness has killed the evil sect and has greatly rewarded him. Those who have followed Third Highness to make contributions will also be rewarded. Third Highness, please accept the rewards."
As he spoke, he took out a golden decree and held it in his hand. He did not open it and instead casually tossed it down from the sky, landing in the Third Prince’s hand.
