For a past promise, Xiao Chen makes a powerful return, becoming the personal bodyguard to a beautiful CEO. He sweeps aside all enemies, forging his own legend as a true king!
He climbs to the...
Around noon, Xiao Chen received a call from Xiaodao.
"Brother Chen, someone from the Supreme Palace is here."
"Um?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised when he heard Xiaodao's words. So fast?
"How many people?"
"Three people."
Xiaodao replied.
"What strength?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"Not sure, two old men and one middle-aged man."
Xiaodao paused when he said this.
"It doesn't seem very strong, mid to late stage of Hua Jin?"
"Where are they?"
Xiao Chen stood up.
"Don't get into conflict with them. I'm going back now."
"Then I invite them to the reception room?"
Xiaodao asked.
"Well, treat me well. I'll talk to you when I get back."
Xiao Chen finished speaking and hung up the phone.
"What's wrong?"
Fatty Chen looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Someone's coming from the Supreme Palace. I'm going back now."
Xiao Chen said.
"I'll go with you."
When Fatty Chen heard this, he immediately spoke.
"Although I am not as strong as you, I have more experience in the martial arts world than you. With me here, you won't suffer any loss."
"Let Lao Chen go back with you."
Nangong Bufan also said.
"OK."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Afterwards, the three of them left, and Nangong Bufan waited until the car disappeared from sight before returning to the house.
He thought about it, took out his cell phone and made a call.
"Let your Fifth Master come out of confinement."
After answering the phone, Nangong Bufan didn't waste any words and spoke directly.
"Let Master Wu come out?"
Hearing this, there was some surprise.
"Didn't Master Wu say that unless it's a major event, we shouldn't disturb him?"
"Something big has happened. Tell him that there is movement in the outer world."
Nangong Bufan said slowly.
"In addition, the Nangong family has established an alliance with Longmen. From now on, the Nangong family and Longmen will prosper together and suffer together."
"If we prosper together, we all prosper; if we suffer together, we all suffer?"
They were even more surprised over there.
“Father, you…”
"Listen to me!"
Nangong Bufan said in a deep voice without waiting for the other party to finish.
"Yes, father."
There was no further words said.
"Make preparations and choose a day for Ling'er to return to her roots. She will no longer be my disciple, but my granddaughter, Nangong Bufan, and the eldest daughter of the Nangong family!"
Nangong Bufan continued.
"Yes, father."
There was a response from the other side.
"When the time comes, invite all parties. I want everyone to know!"
Nangong Bufan spoke in a low and slow voice.
"This girl has suffered a lot over the years. It's time to give her what belongs to her."
"I know, Father."
The voice over there also sank.
"Okay, let's leave it at that for now."
Nangong Bufan finished speaking and hung up the phone.
He put down his phone and paced slowly, hoping that this decision was the right one!
He was willing to take a gamble for Xiao Chen, and the stakes were... the entire Nangong family!
At the same time, Xiao Chen and the other two were rushing to the Xiao family manor.
The arrival of people from the Supreme Palace was a bit beyond Xiao Chen's expectations.
Much earlier than he thought.
But judging from Xiaodao's tone, they had no intention of causing trouble and probably wanted to negotiate with him.
"What are you going to do?"
Fatty Chen looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"What am I going to do? Haha, what I'm going to do is up to them."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"If they are just here to negotiate, then we can talk first... If they are here to cause trouble, then they don't have to leave."
"Don't be careless. Maybe he is sent to confuse you or to buy time."
Fatty Chen said to Xiao Chen.
"Delay time?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen frowned.
"You mean, they are afraid that I will cause trouble for them, so they come here to delay time? Wait for Master Chu Zhuo?"
“It’s not impossible.”
Fatty Chen nodded.
"Let's talk about it when we meet later and see how they perform."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Feng Jinhai just came to see me last night, and he arrived at Wushang Palace today."
"What does the old guy want from you?"
Fatty Chen was curious.
"Probe me."
Xiao Chen briefly explained what happened to Feng Jinhai.
"Heh, this old guy has a lot on his mind."
Fatty Chen sneered.
"That's normal. I'm a little uncertain."
Xiao Chen could understand.
"Did you teach him the "Return to the Origin Divine Art"?"
Fatty Chen asked.
"No, let's see how he performs. Although I plan to spread the "Return to the Origin Divine Art", I can't just spread it casually... At least I have to wait until I destroy the Supreme Palace before I teach it to him."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Well, it's good to know the number."
Fatty Chen nodded.
About half an hour later, Xiao Chen and the other two returned to the Xiao Manor.
"Ling'er, go and do your thing."
Xiao Chen said to Nangong Ling.
"good."
Nangong Ling responded that no matter what Wushang Palace came for, she could not help.
If they are too strong, she is useless, and if they are weak... they don't need her at all.
Xiao Chen took Fatty Chen to the reception room.
"Brother Chen."
Xiaodao saw Xiao Chen coming back and greeted him.
"Mr. Chen, you are back too."
"Um."
Fatty Chen nodded and looked at the three people sitting there.
At the same time, the three of them were also looking at Xiao Chen, slightly surprised.
Younger than they thought.
"Master Xiao."
The old man sitting in the middle slowly stood up and greeted everyone.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, a little disappointed. The strongest among the three should be the old man in the middle.
However, even the strongest one is estimated to be at the peak of the late Hua Jin stage.
It was much weaker than he had imagined.
He originally thought that at least a half-step innate person should be sent to talk to him.
"I am Zhang Liang, one of the elders of the Supreme Palace."
The old man introduced himself.
After hearing the old man's introduction, Xiao Chen turned to look at Fatty Chen. What he meant was... have you heard of it?
“Never heard of it.”
Fatty Chen understood Xiao Chen's look, and then, without considering other people's feelings, he shook his head.
“…”
The old man's face darkened slightly. Even if he had never heard of it, there was no need to say it out loud, right?
Wouldn't you be polite and say 'I've heard a lot about you'?
"oh."
Xiao Chen smiled, nodded, and sat down.
"Elder, right? Tell me, what are you doing here?"
He didn't intend to be polite. He had killed so many people from the Supreme Palace. If he was polite, would he no longer be an enemy?
It's simply impossible.
"The three of us, on behalf of the Supreme Palace, would like to have a talk with Patriarch Xiao."
The old man suppressed his anger and spoke slowly.
"On behalf of the Supreme Palace, can you talk to me?"
Xiao Chen looked at the old man and smiled playfully.
"Okay, whatever you want to talk about, just say it... But this Supreme Palace is really not that good. Can a person at the peak of the late stage of Huajin represent it?"
“…”
The old man was shocked. He had tried his best to restrain his aura, but he didn't expect that his strength would still be exposed.
"Master Xiao, our Young Palace Master has already told us about the Guiyuan Realm when he returned."
The old man didn't waste any words and got straight to the point.
"Our Palace Master said that as long as Patriarch Xiao hands over the things he got from Guiyuan Realm and then hands over the traitor Feng Jinhai, this matter... our Wushang Palace can ignore it and become friends with Patriarch Xiao."
"hehe."
Hearing the old man's words, Xiao Chen laughed, as if he had heard a joke, and laughed louder and louder.
"Hahaha, Wushang Palace doesn't care and wants to be friends with me? I'm dying of laughter."
Seeing Xiao Chen's reaction, the old man's face turned darker, and the two people beside him also showed anger.
But they still suppressed themselves. Since they could come, they must have come with brains. It was impossible for them to know how strong Xiao Chen was and still be arrogant to him.
If that really happens, you won’t even know how you died.
"Master Xiao, what are you laughing at?"
The old man suppressed his temper. If the young man in front of him was not Xiao Chen, he would have attacked him long ago because he could not beat him.
"I'm laughing at your Palace Master's calculations. He wants me to hand over my things, Feng Jinhai, without paying anything?"
Xiao Chen sneered.
"That's fine, but why are you sent to die?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the three old men's faces changed. Seeking death?
"Master Xiao, we are here to have a good talk with you, and... even when two countries are at war, they don't kill envoys! If you do something to us and it gets out, I'm afraid it won't have a good impact on Master Xiao."
The old man took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"But I feel insulted."
Xiao Chen looked at the old man and said calmly.
"If the Supreme Palace wants to negotiate, they should send a strong man, at least a half-step Xiantian, right? Why, are you afraid that I will take action and kill a half-step Xiantian, which will cause great losses? So, they sent you three?"
“…”
The old man was stunned. He was at the peak of the late stage of Hua Jin. Was he weak?
Since when did someone who was at the peak of the late Hua Jin stage become so unpopular in the ancient martial arts world and turned into a weakling?
Fatty Chen grinned. This kid had hit him many times, and now seeing him hitting others, he was in a very good mood.
"He Sheng and He Dingshan both died at my hands. Any one of them is better than you."
Xiao Chen looked amused.
"Do you think you are qualified to talk?"
“…”
The old man frowned.
"Go back and tell Chu Zhong that if you want to talk, send someone with some weight over, otherwise there will be no talk."
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"For example, Chu Zhuo, I think he's pretty good. He's the young palace master, and his strength is just okay. Let him come next time."
"Master Xiao, I am an elder of the Supreme Palace and I have a lot of weight in the Supreme Palace."
The old man gritted his teeth and defended himself.
Why does Xiao Chen's tone sound so contemptuous of him, as if he were just a nobody?
"I heard from Feng Jinhai that there are dozens of elders in the Supreme Palace, but it seems that only seven or eight of them have real power... Do you have real power?"
Xiao Chen asked.
“…”
The old man's face twitched. He really had no real power.
"No, right? I told you that Chu Zhong was afraid that I would kill someone, so he sent you here... Don't worry, I'm a very easy person to talk to. As long as you don't provoke me, I won't kill anyone."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Let me ask you, are you three the only ones coming to Longhai this time? Is Chu Zhuo here? If he is, please tell him a message for me. Doesn't he want to step on me to become famous? I'll give him a chance. I'll let him use one hand and allow him to hold a weapon... If you dare, come find me! If you win, everything in Guiyuan Realm will be given to him, and Fengjinhai will also be handed over to you!"
"Then...what if I lose?"
The middle-aged man next to him asked subconsciously.
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Xiao Chen glanced at him and smiled: "Why, I let him use one hand to hold the weapon, and you still have no confidence in your young palace master?"
