Linghua and Li Mengjiao both live in the backyard of the Royal Inn.
To prevent them from being harassed by those arrogant and domineering people from the Cang Shen Palace, War Emperor Li Qingxiao personally guarded the back gate!
At this moment, a high-ranking imperial general, leading a dozen or so mid-ranking imperial soldiers, arrived menacingly at the backyard of the royal residence!
Upon seeing this, Li Qingxiao immediately became tense.
Although he was determined to protect Linghua and the others with his life!
But he was, after all, just a lower-ranking emperor!
He couldn't handle any one of these people in front of him!
If the other party wants to harm Linghua and the others, he will probably be helpless!
Meanwhile, Linghua and the others in the backyard were hiding in a secret room deep inside the backyard.
When these people from the Cangshen Temple approached the entrance to the backyard, they also sensed the terrifying aura emanating from these people, and they were all so tense that they didn't dare to breathe!
"Mengjiao, can't you still get in touch with Lin Feng?"
King Li Yulong frowned and asked anxiously.
"Hmm! My husband has gone somewhere, beyond the range of the communication jade slip, so we can't contact him at all!"
Li Mengjiao also frowned and nodded helplessly.
"Keep trying to contact Lin Feng! Only he can save the Great Jin Kingdom now!"
The Second Prince, Li Menglong, standing beside him, also solemnly gave his instructions.
"Um!"
Linghua and Li Mengjiao nodded and continued to try to contact Lin Feng using the communication jade slip.
At the same time, at the backyard entrance.
Upon seeing War Emperor Li Qingxiao guarding the entrance, the leading high-ranking emperor frowned and said with great contempt, "Who are you, and what are you doing blocking this way?"
The mid-level emperors behind him all looked at Li Qingxiao with disdain.
After all, a mere lower-ranking emperor was not worthy of their attention.
"I am Li Qingxiao, the ancestor of the royal family of the Great Jin Kingdom!"
Faced with the enormous disparity in strength, in order to protect everyone, War Emperor Li Qingxiao had no choice but to set aside his former pride as the number one person in the Eastern Four Regions, and took the initiative to lower his posture, bowing with a smile on his face and saying, "May I ask what brings you distinguished guests here? Is there anything you need?"
"Ancestor? Heh, a mere lower-ranking emperor dares to act like an ancestor? He's truly ignorant of his own limitations!"
The leading emperor openly mocked him without any politeness.
"That's right! Even I, a mid-level emperor, don't dare to call myself 'Ancestor,' yet he, a mere low-level emperor, dares to be so audacious!"
"Hehe, that's normal. Shallow waters breed many turtles, and big shots are everywhere. In a remote place like the Eastern Four Regions, there aren't many emperor-level people. That's why he, a mere lower-ranking emperor, can reign supreme here!"
"I'm quite envious of him. With that level of cultivation, he's nothing in Zhongzhou, but here he can act like a tyrant and be high and mighty!"
The soldiers behind them, who were at the mid-level Emperor cultivation level, also mocked them.
"..."
Upon hearing this, Li Qingxiao's expression turned extremely ugly.
For over a thousand years, he had roamed the four regions of the Eastern Pole, always a figure that everyone could only look up to. When had he ever suffered such humiliation!
However, despite his anger, he could only vent his anger in silence, given the vast disparity in strength between the two sides.
"Alright! Let's stop bullying these local folks from a small place! Let's get down to business!"
The leading emperor chuckled mockingly, "I heard you have three stunning beauties here, is that right? Bring them out! My master has taken a liking to them!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Li Qingxiao's heart trembled!
It’s over!
His worst fears came true!
These bastards from Zhongzhou finally set their sights on Linghua and her friends!
However, both Linghua and Li Mengjiao are Lin Feng's women, and also his family members!
Gu Ruoxi was also a loyal follower of him!
Therefore, Li Qingxiao would never allow any of them to take away and ruin them!
At the same time, he was very clear that, given the huge gap in strength between the two sides, no matter how unwilling he was, even if he risked his life, he could not stop the other side!
At the same time, Linghua and the others in the secret room deep in the backyard also heard the intentions of those people from the Cangshen Palace. Their hearts sank and their faces were filled with despair!
They also knew very well that neither they nor War Emperor Li Qingxiao could stop those people!
The entrance to the backyard outside.
Seeing that Li Qingxiao remained unmoved, the leader of the Cang Shen Palace people, the high-ranking emperor, darkened his face and coldly ordered in an unquestionable tone: "Boy, what are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear what I said? Quickly bring out those three stunning beauties!"
"If you're smart enough to call them out on your own initiative, we can still live in peace!"
"But if you insist on forcing me to take action, things won't be so simple!"
"Once I make my move, not only will those three be taken away by me, but you and your descendants will also die without a burial place!"
As he spoke, the emperor released a terrifying aura that suppressed Li Qingxiao, rendering him completely immobile!
"Gentlemen... that lord said that after you enter the city, you must not harass the people in the city at will! In particular, you must not harass the royal family of my Great Jin Kingdom!"
Under immense pressure, Li Qingxiao mustered his courage and said solemnly, "What you are doing now, aren't you disobeying that lord's orders?"
