Chapter 686: Vaporizing Like a Ascending Dragon

ll I ever get married after this""Get married"Li Chen expressed surprise, "You still want to get married""This palace will send a decree. Your father would probably be the first to tie you up and brin...Chapter 686: Ascending Dragon, Like Vapor

Li Junze at this moment was like a pig's head, with blood and tears streaming down his face, his entire visage filthy.

What's even more heartbreaking is that despite his delirium, he continued to plead for mercy. His pitiful appearance brought tears to the eyes of all who witnessed it.

In contrast to Li Chen, who wore a crimson dragon robe, with sword-like eyebrows and a face like jade, radiating an aura of power that surged like a rising dragon, was truly one man in the mud, the other among the heavens.

Even the most blindly loyal person wouldn't be able to compare Li Junze to Li Chen.

The bright sunlight on his face made him feel a little more awake.

He struggled to open his swollen eyes, looking at the men who had arrived from his father's court. He opened his mouth and croaked out, "Help...save me..."

Li Junze's cry for help finally woke some people up.

They suddenly realized they had reached a point of no return. Killing Li Chen was a death sentence, and not killing him also meant certain death.

Let's not even talk about whether Crown Prince Li Chen will let us go. Just look at what will happen to the prince. When we get back, how could the Duke possibly forgive us

At the thought of this, a small group of people's eyes turned red.

Clank!

A man drew his long sword and roared, "Brothers, now we have no choice but to die! Let's drag the prince down with us!"

After finishing his words, the man slashed at Li Chen with the knife in his hand.

More than one hundred people became visibly agitated.

And on the side of the court officials, everyone's heart was in their throats.

A few of them, who were less brave, widened their eyes and cried out in alarm.

Only Zhao Xuanji was tightly furrowed, his eyes flickering with an unknown light.

The moment Li Junze was knocked to the ground by Li Chen, he knew he had lost today.

... he still needed to wait and see how things would unfold.

If the prince were to die here, it might not be a bad thing for him.

As for those who took action, Zhao Xuanji didn't even look at them. With Li Zecheng down, these people couldn't possibly succeed.

They are nothing but ants.

While Li Chen stood in the middle of the crowd, he remained unmoved as the blade came slashing towards him.

It seems he, just like Zhao Xuanji, faces a swarm of ants with no need to dodge.

As expected, before the long sword could even touch Li Chen, Gong Huiyu who had been standing motionless in the distance suddenly vanished.

The next second, Li Chen only felt a fragrant wind blowing towards him. A delicate, incredibly unique, and refreshing scent lingered at the tip of his nose. Then, there was a scream, accompanied by an arm holding a knife flying through the air.

Li Chen glanced at Gong Huiyu, who had a cold expression beside him. This woman, does she like taking parts off people so much

It's either the head or the arms.

Gong Huiyu said nothing, her long blade slanted towards the ground in her hand. A drop of blood gathered at the tip of the blade and fell to the earth.

She didn't say a word, but the coldness in her eyes made it clear to everyone: anyone who dared to take a step forward would be killed without mercy.

This kind of silent threat, sometimes carries more weight than any spoken words.

After witnessing the extraordinary skill of this woman, who was as beautiful as a fairy, no one dared to act recklessly anymore.

After all, life is your own.

From that imposing man to this nameless nobody, two lives have already been wasted.

Outside the Taihe Palace, there came a sound of many footsteps.

At first glance, there seemed to be well over a thousand people.ficulties."Originally, according to the government notice issued by the Ministry of Finance, local county offices were required to provide storefronts for money houses and store official funds in them...
