At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

"As expected of the young master of the Holy Demon Sect, he is really powerful!"

Lin Chen sighed in admiration and struck with his sword at will, blocking Nangong Yuanhao's fatal blow.

clang!

Sparks flew and Lin Chen staggered, taking half a step back.

Nangong Yuanhao's face showed joy. He thought that Lin Chen's injury was very serious and he was no match for him.

However, his face turned pale again, and he saw that Lin Chen did not use all his strength.

He suddenly regretted taking the Xuanyuan Pill.

"Come again! Die!"

He shouted low and rushed towards Lin Chen. The sword in his hand turned into black lines all over the sky, covering every part of Lin Chen's body.

The tinkling sound of gold and iron sounded.

Lin Chen still stood on the same spot and swept his sword across, forcing Nangong Yuanhao to fly backwards.

"Damn it! You still have some energy left?" Nangong Yuanhao's eyes were round and he couldn't believe this scene.

boom!

Nangong Yuanhao fell to the ground. He was wearing armor. At this moment, the armor was covered with sword marks, which was shocking. His handsome face had become twisted and hideous.

"I told you, you want to kill me, you are so delusional! Your little means can't do anything to me."

Lin Chen slowly walked towards Nangong Yuanhao and said in a cold tone: "Since you have taken the Xuanyuan Pill, you should know that taking this pill will have serious side effects. You'd better just surrender!"

Nangong Yuanhao was so frightened by Lin Chen that his body trembled. How could he be willing to surrender without restraint? He knew that as long as he surrendered without restraint, he would definitely die.

He roared: "Lin Chen! You don't want me to surrender! I would rather die than give in to you!"

Lin Chen snorted coldly, held the blood-drinking sword, and slashed directly towards Nangong Yuanhao. In an instant, the sword light flashed across, like the Milky Way pouring, bright and gorgeous.

Poof!

Blood spurted out, and accompanied by shrill screams, Nangong Yuanhao's head fell to the ground.

Yun Shang was stunned.

She had never seen Lin Chen look so ferocious and bloodthirsty.

Swish swish——

Lin Chen's figure flashed, and in an instant, in front of him, corpses piled up like a mountain, and the strong smell of blood filled the whole house, making people sick.

Yun Shang smelled this breath and couldn't help but vomited.

"I said, I will give you a generous gift. I hope you accept it. This can be regarded as repaying your life-saving grace."

After dealing with Nangong Yuanhao, Lin Chen looked at Yun Shang and the maid beside her, and nodded slightly.

Yun Shang looked at the corpse in front of her, and after hearing Lin Chen's words, she waved her hands and said: "Lin Chen, don't say that, how can we take your things? It's just a little effort for us to help you, besides, between us, It’s a mutually beneficial relationship.”

"Sister Yunshang, you don't have to refuse." Lin Chen smiled gently, but could not refuse. After speaking, he pointed at Nangong Yuanhao and said, "You keep this person's storage ring, and you can take half of the wealth here. ”

"I……"

Yun Shang hesitated for a moment, looking at the priceless treasures in front of her, her heart beat violently, and she swallowed greedily.

However, after hesitating for a moment, she shook her head and said firmly: "No, I can't take these things, you can take them yourself."

"Sister Yunshang, we are friends, how can I swallow these things alone. These things are of no use to me, but you are the most precious to me!" Lin Chen frowned.

"No. You are wrong. Although you don't care about cultivation resources, we can't!"

Yun Shang looked at Lin Chen eagerly and said anxiously: "Lin Chen, these things are not worth mentioning to you, but they are really important to us. This is a huge wealth!"

"You are right, this is a huge wealth, but you are also very important friends to me." Lin Chen shook his head.

He paused and added: "And as I said just now, you are all my friends. Since I said I would give you gifts, how can I keep them all to myself?"

At this point, he changed the subject and asked: "I would like to ask Sister Yunshang, how did you get here and why are you being chased?"

Hearing Lin Chen talk about the business, Yun Shang finally calmed down and said distressedly: "For this matter, we have to blame our Yunhuang Empire. My father loves His Highness the Crown Prince too much."

"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Lin Chen asked.

"Yes. He is the crown prince of our Great Qin Empire, but he is just a stupid and incompetent idiot."

Yun Shang curled her lips in disgust and said: "My father attaches great importance to His Highness the Crown Prince. Almost all good cultivation resources are given to His Highness first. This has led to His Highness being proud and domineering, doing things unscrupulously, and having great ambitions. He always wants to ascend the throne. proclaim oneself emperor."

At this point, she paused, looked at Lin Chen apologetically, and said, "Lin Chen, I'm sorry. In fact, His Highness the Crown Prince had no choice. Our Yunhuang Empire suddenly lost some of its elite masters more than three hundred years ago, and These masters were sent to the Shengwu Empire, and now His Highness needs their help.”

"Oh? That's it." Lin Chen suddenly understood. No wonder the prince dared to come here to assassinate him. He probably thought that he was an ordinary person with no background and could not leave here, so he thought he could get rid of him.

After all, His Highness the Crown Prince sent many experts, but they all ended up here. If the news that he was still alive spread back, then the Crown Prince would definitely be punished.

"Go on." Lin Chen nodded and motioned for Yun Shang to continue.

"The people sent by His Highness the Crown Prince were all powerful men at the fifth or sixth level of supernatural power. However, they died in your hands. However, you are indeed powerful. No matter what, His Highness the Crown Prince is also our brother. You But if you kill him, you will be our enemy!"

After Yun Shang finished speaking, he stared at Lin Chen and said: "I advise you to run away quickly. Now that you have killed Nangong Yuanhao, when His Highness the Crown Prince comes with the army, you will be dead. Although you are stronger than my father, The emperor is far behind, but in terms of speed, he may not be as good as him!"

"Haha! Then let him come over." Lin Chen smiled faintly, without the slightest hint of fear.

"What an arrogant tone. A mere boy who is in the middle stage of returning to the ruins actually dares to be so arrogant."

A cold voice came from behind Lin Chen, and a middle-aged man walked in with a few people. The leader was the prince Li Xuanyuan.

He wore a white jade mask on his face, purple gold armor, and a long sword at his waist. He looked majestic. It was obvious that he was a man who had been in power for a long time.

"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Before Lin Chen could say anything, Yun Shang knelt on the ground to salute. Lin Mingyuan, Yun Ni and other people from the Yunhuang Empire also knelt down, fearing to anger His Highness the Crown Prince and bring him trouble.

Li Xuanyuan glanced at Yun Shang, who was kneeling on the ground, and then glanced around. When he saw the mutilated corpses in the courtyard, his eyes narrowed.

Then, he looked at Lin Chen and said with a cold tone: "Did you kill my men?"

As he spoke, an astonishing coercion erupted from his body, as if to solidify the space, covering Lin Chen and the people behind him.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. This guy did all this and has nothing to do with us at all!"

Yun Shang turned pale with fright and quickly defended, while giving Lin Chen a fierce look.

A joking smile appeared on Lin Chen's face, and he said: "Oh? I killed your people, and it is natural for you to want to avenge them. However, you should not pour dirty water on sister Yun Shang. , because you don’t deserve him at all.”

Lin Chen's words were straightforward and had no intention of beating around the bush.

Yun Shang was stunned when he heard this.

Is this still the Lin Chen she knows? When did this guy become so domineering? He actually said this in front of the prince?

At this moment, her heart trembled, and she felt like her heart was pounding.

She had always known that Lin Chen was an upright hero, but deep down in her heart, she was always worried that Lin Chen would be too good for her, a princess, to be worthy of him.

"Asshole! Looking for death!"

Li Xuanyuan was furious and stamped his right foot on the ground.

boom!

The ground was cracked, gravel was scattered, and the tables, chairs, and benches in the entire room were turned into powder.

He flashed, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Lin Chen, and slapped Lin Chen on the head with his palm.

"Be careful!" Yun Shang's pretty face changed drastically and she exclaimed.

The men in black around her reacted very quickly, blocking her side and drawing their swords to attack Li Xuanyuan.

Bang bang bang...

After a few muffled grunts, Li Xuanyuan punched randomly and sent several men in black flying away.

Immediately afterwards, he slapped Lin Chen on the chest.

Lin Chen's face changed slightly, and his body shot backwards, hitting the wall.

puff!

Lin Chen couldn't help but spurt out blood, staining his chest red.

"Hey! You are quite resistant to being beaten. You were not killed by me like those people just now!"

Li Xuanyuan glanced at Lin Chen in surprise. His palm contained true energy, which was definitely no less than a strike from an ordinary warrior in the early Tongtian realm.

Lin Chen was only in the middle stage of returning to the ruins. According to common sense, he would definitely not be able to withstand it. However, he was able to bear it hard.

Yun Shang was also very surprised. She also knew the power of Li Xuanyuan's palm, but Lin Chen was able to withstand it. His strength was not weaker than that of a strong man with the eighth level of supernatural power. It was simply unbelievable.

Lin Chen wiped the blood that overflowed from the corner of his lower lip, his thoughts racing.

He knew that if he used secret techniques, he might be able to win, but he would definitely pay some price.

Moreover, he may not win in the end, and may even be exposed. After all, his current strength is still very low. If the opponent has any special means, he can also detect clues.

"Brother Lin Chen!"

The people of the Yunhuang Empire stood up one after another and looked at him in panic.

Li Xuanyuan looked proud and said coldly: "You dare to provoke me? Today, I have to kill you! Don't worry, I will leave your body intact and let you rest in peace!"

After saying that, he turned his wrist and held a silver needle between his fingers.

The silver needle is slender, about three inches long, with an arc-shaped tail and a faint blue light, which looks strange and extraordinary.

At this time, another group of people suddenly appeared at the door, led by none other than Yun Haixiao, the great emperor of the Yunhuang Empire.

Yun Haixiao looked at the field, frowned, and said, "Li Xuanyuan, what are you doing?"

Li Xuanyuan felt a little unhappy when he heard Yun Haixiao's words.

He is the Demon Lord of Dongliu, and he is also the crown prince of the Holy Fire Empire. His status is extremely noble. Who is this Yun Haixiao, so why should he question him?

He said calmly: "I'm taking care of him!"

Lin Chen frowned slightly as he looked at Yun Haixiao who suddenly arrived.

Yun Haixiao's cultivation has reached the peak of the late Tongtian Realm, and he is only one step away from the half-step Tongtian Realm. He is even more powerful than the Yun Lan he encountered before. He is the strongest Lin Chen has encountered so far, other than Yun Lan. opponent.

However, Lin Chen was not afraid of facing him. He was confident that he could defeat him.

"Take care of me? Is it just you?"

Lin Chen looked at Li Xuanyuan and sneered: "You are really overconfident!"

Li Xuanyuan's eyes narrowed, with a cold light, he stared at Lin Chen and said: "Boy, I will give you one more chance to hand over the Flame Sun Burning Heaven Art," and I will let you live. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. "

Lin Chen's expression was sarcastic: "You alone can't threaten me!"

"What a arrogant boy, if this is the case, then I will send you back to the west!" Li Xuanyuan shouted coldly, and the thorny silver needle in his hand came out and flew towards Lin Chen.

Lin Chen's expression changed drastically.

Uh-huh!

At the same time, Yun Haixiao's figure disappeared from where he was.

The next second.

Snap!

He grabbed the silver needle, threw it on the ground, and said to Li Xuanyuan: "Brother Li, this kid is my consort, you can't touch it! If you insist on killing him, you will be my enemy."

He glanced at Yun Zhixue, saw Yun Zhixue nodded, and continued: "Although this boy is not a prince-in-law, he saved Zhixue after all. Aren't you ready to let him go regardless of your kindness?"

After speaking, he looked at Li Xuanyuan aggressively.

He knew that he was far inferior to this Li Xuanyuan, but this time he brought the Yunhuang Empire's army, and it was impossible for Li Xuanyuan to act recklessly!

The Yunhuang Empire is not made of clay!

Li Xuanyuan's face was a little angry, and he was annoyed in his heart. This damn guy actually used this matter to pressure him. He was really looking for death!

It's a pity that it's not the right time for him to completely break up with the Yunhuang Empire, otherwise, this trip will be in vain.

He looked at Queen Yunzhi and said: "In this case, I will let him go. I hope Her Majesty the Queen will remember the promise she made!"

"Don't worry, I won't default on your debt!" Queen Yunzhi nodded with a firm tone.

Li Xuanyuan took a deep look at Lin Chen and sneered: "Then, I'll leave. You're a waste, you don't deserve me to do anything. Don't appear in front of me in the future, otherwise, don't blame me for destroying flowers with ruthless hands."

After speaking, he led everyone away.

Li Xuanyuan left with his men, and everyone in the Yunhuang Empire breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Her Majesty the Queen, you are so kind and generous!"

Yun Zhixue looked at Yun Zhixue and said gratefully. She felt that if Yun Zhixue had not appeared, she and Lin Chen would have died here.

Yun Zhixue shook his head and said: "You don't need to thank me. It's all because of me that I've caused you trouble, so how could I just stand by and watch!"

"Sister, what should we do now?"

Yun Zhizhi looked at the corpses and blood all over the yard and became a little worried.

Lin Chen said: "I think Li Xuanyuan is not just looking for trouble, he has another conspiracy behind him. Otherwise, with the wealth and power of the Li family, they will never be able to raise such a cruel and vicious dandy disciple."

After a pause, he looked at Yun Zhizhi and said, "Where is your father? Where has he gone?"

"My father just came back from the Southern Territory. Not long ago, Li Xuanyuan's people found us. My father was frightened and hid directly in the treasure house of the palace, unwilling to come out. We can only avoid the sharp edge temporarily. Yes!" Yun Zhizhi sighed.

Southern Territory.

Lin Chen frowned, he had heard people talk about this place before.

The Southern Territory is the state territory where Linghua City is located. Compared to the entire continent of Dongliu Demon Lord, it is just a grain of sand in the Cangming Star Territory.

The actual controller of the Southern Territory, named Wanjian Sect, is said to be an extremely large force that can be called a King of Martial Arts. It is the top super force in the entire Linghua Star.

The Southern Territory is the core of the Nan Yan Territory and is also considered the most prosperous continent. It is one of the distribution centers for various cultivation resources.

And the Li family, where Li Xuanyuan lives, is indeed a huge force in the Southern Territory.

Although the Li family is a super family, it is far behind the three major holy places in the Southern Region. If the ancestors of the Li family had not helped the Yunhuang Empire, the Yunhuang Empire would not be able to gain a foothold in the Southern Region.

Therefore, Li Xuanyuan came to seek revenge against Lin Chen. Although the senior officials of the Li family were angry, no one objected.

After all, the ancestors of the Li family once helped the Yunhuang Empire, which was considered a favor.
