Chapter 585
“Phew!”
Looking at the palace gates in front of him, Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. His nostrils flared as he took in a deep breath. For the past hour, he and Ouyang Chuchu had received a warm welcome and respectful greeting from the citizens. He even felt a little embarrassed.
“Pfft!”
When Ouyang Chuchu heard Xiao Chen’s heavy breathing behind her ears, the intelligent her immediately understood why Xiao Chen suddenly acted like this. She couldn’t help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
“Eh …”
Xiao Chen was speechless. He wasn’t a fool and naturally understood why Ouyang Chuchu was laughing. In order to cover up the awkwardness, he deliberately put on a straight face and said, “Your Highness, we are already at the palace gates. Pay attention to your image as a princess. Look, even the palace guards are attracted by your laughter.”
“Oh!
Really? ”
Xiao Chen’s move was indeed awesome. As a princess, Ouyang Chuchu paid the most attention to her image. She immediately stopped laughing and restored her dignified and noble image. She looked at the city gates that were less than ten feet away and found that there were indeed a few palace guards looking in their direction with surprised faces.
Those palace guards were naturally surprised. They all knew that a large number of super experts had entered the palace. Now that Xiao Chen had returned and rescued the princess, it was originally a good thing. However, they felt that there was a huge conspiracy brewing in the palace, and this conspiracy seemed to be targeting Xiao Chen.
The palace guards put away their surprised expressions and became incomparably solemn. They knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, “Your humble servant welcomes Your Highness back to the palace!
We welcome Young Master Xiao and The Lion King’s triumphant return! ”
“All of you, rise.”
Ouyang Chuchu’s face was dignified and arrogant. She only said one sentence indifferently and shut her mouth. She didn’t look at those palace guards anymore.
“Thank you, Your Highness!”
The few imperial guards quickly stood up and moved to the side. They lowered their heads and stood respectfully, making it easier for the gigantic The Lion King to enter the palace.
Without Xiao Chen’s urging, the Lion King walked to the palace gates automatically. Soon, the Lion King stepped into the palace gates. Just at this moment, an imperial guard respectfully reported from behind, “Your Highness, Young Master Xiao, The Lion King, His Majesty heard the lion roars and is already waiting in the Great Hall of Supreme Harmony.”
“En, got it.” Ouyang Chuchu replied indifferently.
Xiao Chen didn’t find anything wrong with the guard’s words, so he sent a telepathic message to the Lion King, “Da Huang, go straight to the palace. You’ve shocked the entire Fire Spirit City with your Lion’s Roar. Remember to keep a low profile in the future, hehe.”
“Big Brother, we’ve rescued the princess, so naturally, her father has to prepare to welcome us. Do you want us to go to the harem and pull him out from the pile of women?
Hehehe! ”
The Lion King sent a telepathic message to Xiao Chen disapprovingly, giving a high-sounding reason. Only someone with a brain like him could come up with such a strange reason.
“Err … Alright!
Da Huang, your reason is sufficient. I can’t refute it, hehe! “Xiao Chen was convinced by the Lion King. He had no choice but to accept it.
“Eh?”
The Lion King purposely made a strange sound through telepathic message and said proudly, “Big Brother, you actually agree with my reason?
If that’s the case, I’ll be proud of myself, hehehe! ”
“Something’s not right!”
The Fengsha Sword’s voice suddenly appeared in the minds of Xiao Chen and The Lion King, interrupting their conversation, “Big Brother, Second Brother, don’t you think there’s something wrong with the palaces in the distance?”
“Something wrong?” Xiao Chen and The Lion King were taken aback. They asked at the same time, “What’s wrong?
Xiao Sha, is there something wrong? ”
“Why are there so many powerhouses hiding in the palace?
Let’s not talk about the Purple Image powerhouses, there are more than 60 Celestial Image powerhouses and more than 20 Dragon Image powerhouses. As for the Earthly Dragon powerhouses, I haven’t sensed them yet, “The Fengsha Sword said calmly, describing the shocking lineup of powerhouses.
“Is that so?
Hehe. ”
When Xiao Chen heard the terrifying number of powerhouses in the palace, he wasn’t too surprised. Instead, he sneered and sent a telepathic message to The Lion King and the Fengsha Sword, “Da Huang, Xiao Sha, the palace definitely didn’t gather so many powerhouses to welcome us, but to guard against us. This is a trap prepared for us, a dead end!”
“What!
That old bastard, Ouyang Tiande, wants to plot against us? ”
The Lion King had a fiery temper. He immediately scolded, “We saved his daughter, but he’s planning to deal with us in the palace?
Big brother, give the order. The three of us will turn the entire palace upside down and kill everyone! ”
“Wait!”
Xiao Chen stopped The Lion King who was about to break through the enemy lines. He glanced coldly at the seemingly peaceful palace hall in the distance and sent a telepathic message to The Lion King and the Fengsha Sword, “Da Huang, Xiao Sha, don’t be impulsive. Your sister-in-law, Dongfang Qingwu, may have fallen into the hands of Ouyang Tiande. We must first exchange Ouyang Chuchu for your sister-in-law. Then, it’s time for us to start a massacre, hehe.”
“Sister-in-law Dongfang?
That’s right. How could I forget that she’s in the palace? Damn it! ”
The Lion King was slightly stunned. He suddenly remembered that Dongfang Qingwu was not on his back. Instead, she was waiting for them in the palace. He scolded himself and then roared, “If that old bastard, Ouyang Tiande, dares to hurt sister-in-law, I will crush his balls!
Kill his whole family! ”
“Big brother, we can first rescue Sister-in-law Dongfang, and then directly start a massacre!”
The Fengsha Sword suggested in a serious manner. His voice was childish and had a sense of maturity. “I can feel where Sister-in-law Dongfang is at this moment. She’s currently in the depths of the palace, not in the hall where the powerhouses gather.”
“Oh?
Logically speaking, Ouyang Tiande would keep your sister-in-law by his side. Why would he leave your sister-in-law in the harem? ”
Upon hearing the Fengsha Sword’s words, Xiao Chen was stunned. A puzzled look appeared on his face. After thinking for a moment, he still couldn’t figure out the reason. So, he simply stopped thinking and sent a voice transmission to the Lion King. “No matter what the reason is, it’s fine as long as your sister-in-law is not in the hall. We’ll bypass three halls from the side of the palace and rescue your sister-in-law as soon as possible!
Xiao Sha, you’ll be responsible for killing!
Da Huang and I will be responsible for saving her!
Charge! ”
“Yes!
Big brother! ”
The Lion King and the Fengsha Sword all answered seriously. When it came to serious business, they no longer laughed and joked. It was related to the safety of Dongfang Qingwu, so they couldn’t take it lightly and had to go all out.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
The Lion King carried Xiao Chen and Ouyang Chuchu, who was in the dark, and turned to the right side of the palace. He instantly increased his speed to the extreme, turned into a golden shadow, and ran wildly.
“Aiya!”
Ouyang Chuchu was startled by the Lion King’s sudden change of direction and speed. If it wasn’t for Xiao Chen protecting her, she would definitely fall.
Her back was tightly pressed against Xiao Chen’s strong and solid chest. Ouyang Chuchu was embarrassed and anxious. She turned around and saw Xiao Chen’s face, which was close at hand. She immediately found that there was something wrong with Xiao Chen. He was very different from when they entered the palace.
Cold!
At this time, Xiao Chen gave off a kind of coldness, a kind of coldness that came from the bones. Not only his face was cold, his eyes were cold, and even his aura was cold.
“Ah?”
Ouyang Chuchu felt Xiao Chen’s cold killing intent and couldn’t help but shiver. She let out a cry of surprise and asked softly in fear, “Xiao Chen, what’s wrong with you?
And why isn’t the Lion King going to the main hall?
Why are you crazily taking a detour to the harem?
Are you guys going to … “
