Chapter 170 I am really brave! [Thanks to "Xiao Feng Dada" for the reward]
Dongfang Er, who was lying on the ground, had his eyes filled with disbelief the moment he saw Li Chu coming back.
this……
It had only been a quarter of an hour since he left, had it? Dongfang Er estimated the time by saying that during this time, Wang Longqi had slapped him three hundred times at a steady and powerful pace.
——Wang Longqi has always practiced his hand speed.
But the problem is...
Dongfang Er was confused for a moment.
I told you there were only small fry in there just to trick you into coming in.
It’s not like there are only trash in there!
There is clearly an angry messenger in charge!
He is the strongest among the four envoys of the Yiyao Sect. With his nameless fire, he can make people burn themselves to death with just a slight display of it.
At the border of the Western Regions, he once destroyed a large sect alone!
It is precisely because of his highest level of Taoism that he can temporarily act as a leader, staying behind the scenes and commanding the other three messengers.
No matter how powerful you are, the Angry Messenger really can't beat you. But he won't commit suicide, so you'll have to spend some effort to deal with him, right?
Could it be that... the Messenger of Wrath is not here? That's impossible. The person imprisoned in the dungeon is said to be extremely important. The Messenger of Wrath has never left for a moment in these days...
etc.
As Li Chu gradually approached, Dongfang E saw that there was someone following him.
He looks plain and a bit rustic.
His walking posture is very cool.
It was clearly the person imprisoned in the dungeon.
The little Taoist priest really rescued this man! Damn!
The Yi Yao Sect will never let these little demons guarding the dungeon go! They are dead! Dongfang Er was about to close his eyes in despair, but suddenly he remembered that Chao Tianque would not let him go anyway.
Why was he still afraid of the Yi Yao Men? Could a monster die twice? Thinking of this, he suddenly relaxed.
…
"Who is this?" Wang Longqi saw the young man following Li Chu and asked curiously.
Li Chu glanced at the man.
The arrogant young man put his hands behind his back and said arrogantly, "Don't you know the King of Jiangnan?"
"King of Jiangnan?" Wang Longqi asked suspiciously, "Isn't King of Jiangnan in the palace?"
“That’s the fake Ji Baxiao.” The young man said anxiously, “I’m the real Ji Baxiao!”
"Okay, okay, I got it."
Wang Longqi was not most concerned about this. He turned to look at Li Chu and asked, "Where is the treasure you promised me?"
Li Chu's eyes suddenly turned gloomy.
Then, he slowly looked at Dongfang Er's face.
Oh no, it's murderous intent, murderous intent, murderous intent! Dongfang Er's body was covered with goosebumps again. He quickly explained: "The Yi Yao Sect regards this person as extremely important. His value... It's not an exaggeration to say that he is worth a mountain of gold and silver."
"oh."
After listening to his explanation, Li Chu said "oh" indifferently, and then his right hand reached for the hilt of the sword.
Dongfang E's words were quite useful to the young man. He nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "You seem to be a very advanced Taoist priest. As long as you help me do one thing, I will give you ten thousand taels of gold. Why not?"
"Um?"
Li Chu passed Dongfang E and looked at him.
Give him a look that says "we're open to talk".
The young man said, "As long as you go to the Jiangnan Palace, kill the fake prince with a sword, and help me return to the throne, then you will have everything you want."
Hearing this, Li Chu and Wang Longqi looked at each other silently.
At the same time, a thought popped up in my mind: It would be foolish to believe him.
Regardless of whether his identity is true or false, just talking about breaking into the palace and killing the prince... Unless you are a land immortal, you can probably avoid being held accountable after you kill him and then explain the details.
Otherwise it would be simply courting death.
Although Li Chu has gained a lot of confidence recently, he is not confident to this extent.
"certainly……"
Seeing that they seemed to have no intention at all, the young man softened his tone a little.
"If this is too difficult, try something simpler."
Li Chu asked cautiously: "What?"
"I'm hungry. Just lend me a hundred taels of silver so I can have a simple meal." He said weakly.
…
"I am the King of Jiangnan. I was imprisoned for some reason and have just regained my freedom. Lend me a hundred taels of silver for a meal. When I ascend the throne again, I will return you ten thousand taels of gold."
…
This sentence structure made Li Chu feel inexplicably familiar.
He certainly wouldn't be fooled.
This prince, whose authenticity was unknown, was an unexpected gain, and there was no telling what undercurrents were lurking behind him. Li Chu and Wang Longqi simply sent him, along with Dongfang'e and Hui Niang, to Chaotianque.
Chaotianque attached great importance to this and immediately questioned the three people separately. After a long while, Li Xinyi came back with a serious expression.
She said to the two of them, "Today's matter is of great importance. You must not spread it."
"That's right!" Wang Longqi gritted his teeth and said, "No one is allowed to tell anyone that I was cheated on!"
“…”
Li Xinyi was speechless for a moment, then said, "I'm obviously referring to the matter between the Yi Yao Sect and the King of Jiangnan."
Li Chu nodded in agreement and asked, "Is he really the King of Jiangnan?"
"It's hard to tell whether it's true or not at the moment." Li Xinyi frowned and said, "He is indeed very familiar with the affairs of the Jiangnan Palace, and his appearance is very similar."
"But we still need to conduct a strict inspection to confirm it. Duan Baipao from our station has just led a team to the Jiangnan Palace in person."
"Anyway, there is only one King of Jiangnan. If the one in the palace is confirmed to be real, then the one you picked up must be fake."
Li Xinyi had nothing else to do, so she told them more.
Chaotianque has a special inspection process for the infiltration of the Yiyao Sect.
The magic mirror is naturally the most powerful. It is not possible to illuminate everyone in the world, but once you have a key target, you can tell whether it is a human or a demon at a glance.
For a royal noble like the King of Jiangnan, who is crowned king of a continent, there must also be a strict bloodline check.
A certain amount of real dragon blood is sealed in the Chaotianque station in each fiefdom. At times like this, there will be special magical powers to test the similarity between King Jiangnan's bloodline and the real dragon's bloodline.
The true dragon here does not refer to the real dragon clan, but the royal ancestral blood.
Every white-robed person in Chaotianque was at least at the Wanxiang realm. In front of such people, there was no need to worry about the inspection process being fishy. If there was anything wrong with the King of Jiangnan, he would be captured on the spot.
However, this kind of inspection is a great suspicion of the current King of Jiangnan. If the suspicion is wrong, he may be criticized from many sides.
The fact that they were willing to initiate the inspection despite such great pressure showed that Chao Tianque might have a high degree of trust in the "King of Jiangnan" that Li Chu had picked up.
In fact, Li Chu also felt it vaguely in his heart.
Perhaps what the young man said was true.
Because he looks pretty stupid.
"And that donkey..."
"It is an illegal resident of Hangzhou Prefecture, it raped a prostitute, and it joined the Yi Yao Sect. Three crimes are punishable together... Actually, it doesn't need three crimes. Joining the Yi Yao Sect alone is a crime that must be punished by death."
"We have also sent people to capture the little demons you targeted in the abandoned garden."
"In addition..." Li Xinyi looked at Wang Longqi, "We will also have to detain Hui Niang for a while. She has been poisoned by the Li Huan Dan and must be completely detoxified before she can be released."
"Lihuan Pill?" Wang Longqi didn't understand at all.
"It is an extremely vicious elixir made by the Yi Yao Sect. After they replace someone with an incarnation, they will use this elixir to control their closest partner."
"After taking this pill, people can have extremely blissful hallucinations. This hallucination is thousands of times stronger than the real thing. So once you take it, you can't leave it anymore."
"Moreover, once you stop taking this pill, you will suffer from strong hallucinations. The person in the backlash will be in great pain and may do dangerous things. If you take it for a long time... you may even die on the spot."
"Ah?" Wang Longqi asked, "Will Hui Niang be in trouble?"
"She didn't take it many times, so she shouldn't have lost her life, but..." Li Xinyi shook her head and said, "There is currently no antidote for this pill. Basically, once a person touches the Lihuan Pill once, they are doomed."
"ah……"
Wang Longqi's shoulders trembled slightly and his eyes were complicated.
In Chaotianque, he could still barely suppress his emotions.
As soon as he walked out of the Chaotianque Gate and onto the street outside, he finally couldn't bear it any longer.
Laughed out loud...
I am preparing to finish this volume recently. It is very difficult to sort out the plot, so the update is a bit laggy. Please forgive me. Thanks to Xiaofeng for becoming the leader of this book. I owe you 20+1=21. In terms of paying off debts, I will learn from Luo Yonghao, not Jia Yueting...
