Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

Facts have proved that warriors with the cultivation of the Void Realm are top masters even if they are not the ceiling of this world.

Ding Wei's speed obviously exceeded the limit that ordinary people could bear. The naked eye could not catch any trace of his movements. Even before the sound of breaking through the air reached Lu Chen's ears, his figure surrounded by red lightning appeared above Lu Chen.

The cold light of the tip of the Miao Dao fell straight on Lu Chen's head.

Crack!

The lightning flashed, and the extremely strong wind was about to tear Lu Chen into pieces.

However, at this moment——

Roar!

The Jidao sword in Lu Chen's hand suddenly shone brightly, and then the shadow behind him suddenly expanded dozens of times, forming a huge magic circle emitting golden floating light.

In the magic circle, accompanied by a roar, a huge golden energy arm suddenly stretched out and blocked Lu Chen's head.

Boom! ! !

Ding Wei's extremely fast knife slashed fiercely on the golden arm, and immediately made a deafening roar.

Then, before Lu Chen could react, the golden arm with countless cracks on its surface suddenly lifted up, and Ding Wei, who had just exhausted his strength, was caught off guard and flew away. The whole person was like a cannonball and slammed into the dark water, creating layers of thick water curtains.

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen's face flashed with surprise.

But soon he calmed down.

There was nothing to be surprised about.

The Sword of Extreme Dao is one of the treasures of the Great Xia Empire. Only the king of virtue can hold it. This sword of the emperor not only symbolizes supreme power, but also has extremely powerful power.

As the true owner of the Sword of Extreme Dao, he didn't find it strange that the empress could do anything after fully mastering its power.

For example, the giant arm in front of him was obviously a technique automatically activated by the Sword of Extreme Dao, and it had nothing to do with him.

Even the spiritual power was not his, but the empress secretly hid it in it when she handed the Sword of Extreme Dao to him, and the same was true for the technique that was automatically activated when he was in danger.

Obviously, even with Fu Hua and Chai Hongyu, two powerful people in the Return to One Realm, as her personal guards, the empress was still not completely relieved, but used her own way to add an insurance for Lu Chen.

And now, this insurance has played a key role - once again blocking his way to ascend.

After quickly figuring it out, Lu Chen was not as angry as he was when he lost the opportunity before, but just sighed, and even had a strange feeling towards the empress.

After a while, he clenched the sword of the extreme way in his hand, slowly turned around, and looked at the dark water vortex not far away.

Suddenly, blood-colored knife lights accompanied by red thunder flew out of the vortex and flew straight towards him.

At the same time, from the shadow behind Lu Chen, a golden hand holding a huge shield stretched out again, and "clanged" the huge shield across Lu Chen.

Ding ding ding!

A dull thumping sound rang out, and the giant shield steadily blocked all the flying knife lights, and Lu Chen was not even hurt.

Seeing this, Lu Chen immediately knew that he and Ding Wei were "safe".

Neither could do anything to the other.

Otherwise, the result would be that Ding Wei would be directly killed by him who had ascended to heaven on the spot, and there would be no trace left.

And Ding Wei seemed to realize this, and did not launch an attack underwater again, but rather floated to the surface in a rather embarrassed manner, standing in the distance and watching Lu Chen.

Or rather, staring at the huge energy body that was slowly emerging from the shadow behind Lu Chen.

It was a golden giant.

Wearing heavy armor, holding a shield in his left hand and a gun in his right hand, with a longbow on his back and a quiver on his waist, his whole body was surrounded by golden lightning, and he looked extremely majestic and handsome.

Inside the visor, a pair of dark golden eyes flickered slightly.

Just by watching from a distance, one can feel a strong pressure, which is obviously very extraordinary.

Lu Chen tried it and found that he had no control over the giant.

Obviously, this was a technique that belonged to Jiang Chengwan alone, and it would only be activated when he was in danger to ensure that he was safe.

As for the restrictions on the use of the technique, the number of times, the cost, the duration, etc., only Jiang Chengwan himself knew.

At this time, Ding Wei's face was no longer as relaxed as before, and he could not say anything to win over Lu Chen.

He just stared at the golden giant who was protecting Lu Chen tightly, and his face gradually showed reluctance and helplessness.

However, in the depths of his eyes, there was an inexplicable flash of relief, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

"You are worthy of being the most favored minister of Daxia today, and the future emperor of Daxia."

After a while, as if he realized something, Ding Wei spoke slowly.

"Even the legendary [Sage of the Supreme Dao], the Taichu Dao method that surpasses the legacy of the saints, the empress is willing to give you for self-defense. She is really good to you. Even a proper couple or Taoist couple can't do this, right?"

"Tsk tsk. If this gets out, let those bigwigs who hate her know that the empress doesn't have the Taichu Dao method to protect herself, and now the Saint King Cangming is not in Beijing, hehe"

At this point, his tone inexplicably became a little subtle.

"Junior brother, do you think those bigwigs who have been rich for generations will have some inappropriate thoughts because of this?"

"There are no fewer people who are eyeing the emperor who acts perversely and rebellious than you, junior brother."

Hearing this, Lu Chen's eyes suddenly condensed.

Sage of the Supreme Dao

He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the extremely powerful golden giant above his head, his face gradually becoming a little heavy.

As the top official of Daxia, he naturally knew what those four words meant.

It's just that he had only heard of it and had never seen it.

At first, he didn't think about it, because the empress would give her most powerful means of life-saving to a minister and put herself in danger. Just thinking about it seemed like a fantasy.

But now

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but clench his fists.

No, I have to go back to Beijing as soon as possible!

At this time, Ding Wei suddenly raised his hand and slowly put the Miao Dao in his hand back into the scabbard.

"Junior brother, you must take good care of your valuable head. If someone else gets it first, I will lose a lot."

While speaking, he suddenly took out a scroll from his arms and said, "After all, it took me a lot of effort to get your head."

"You are always kind and generous. You will not sit back and watch me suffer a big loss, right?"

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Lu Chen always feels that his tone of "I spent a lot of effort" is a bit heavy.

Then, before he could think more, the scroll in Ding Wei's hand suddenly burst into a burst of black light, and in the blink of an eye, he was completely enveloped in it.

The next second, the black light disappeared without a trace.

Ding Wei's meaningful face also disappeared with it. (End of this chapter)
