Chapter 28: I Will Devote Everything to the Crown Prince"No need for gifts."Li Chen said faintly, "Since you took the initiative to meet me, then the things are already prepared"Chapter 1203 You Want Me to Be Your Bodyguard!

Although he stood there motionless, his aura was constantly rising.

He seemed to have merged with heaven and earth, and facing him felt like facing the might of nature itself.

That's a feeling of despair and suffocation that leaves you with no courage to resist whatsoever.

Li Chen sat on the spot, facing Jian Xin's aura of pressure, he was the first to bear it.

But he was not intimidated by Jian Xin's terrifying aura.

There is also an aura gathering on Li Chen, that aura seems like a crouching dragon emerging from its lair.

He simply sat there, radiating an aura of power like a dragon coiled amongst tigers. Having long held a position of authority, the aura of the Prince of the Qin Empire was fully unleashed at this moment.

In the Imperial City of a thousand years, seated within the Hall of Governance, Li Chen looked at Jian Xin and said, "Throughout history, it has always been the imperial family that holds sway, not some martial arts masters."

"Since ancient times, heroes have used martial arts to break the law, and they have only broken the law. Who truly dares to rebel"

"To be called a 'divine being of the land' is to truly believe oneself to be a god, isn't it"

Listening to Li Chen's words, Jian Xin felt as if all the imperial might of the thousand-year-old capital city had converged on him.

He faced not an ordinary, helpless man, but a towering celestial emperor who held the heavenly laws in his mouth and whose words brought forth decrees.

This imperial aura is intangible, yet Jian Xin could feel its undeniable presence.

At this moment, this imperial aura not only completely suppressed the aura emanating from his body, but also gave him a deep sense of being threatened.

This feeling was one he had never experienced with anyone else.

including the old bald donkey who had previously repelled him with a single palm strike.

With a slight squint, Jian Xin looked at Li Chen and suddenly smiled, "Your Highness, you flatter me. This won't happen again, I assure you."

"I wonder what brings His Royal Highness to me. Whatever it is, I will do my utmost to ease his burdens and never refuse."

His smile, like snow meeting the warmth of the sun, caused his terrifying aura to vanish without a trace.

The huge difference in attitude before and after made Jane seem as slippery as an old fox.

And Li Chen was best at dealing with such slippery old foxes.

"The Master is jesting. The Master and I should form an alliance, working together for the benefit of all people. Speaking of which, this matter would be greatly beneficial to the Master as well. Otherwise, how could I have thought of the Master"

As for what Li Chen said, Jian Xin didn't believe a word of it.

This serves as a stark warning.

In Jianxin's eyes, Li Chen was a ruthless wolf who devoured people without spitting out their bones. Underneath his youthful appearance lay a ruthlessness and cunning far beyond his years.

Although on high alert inside, Jian Xin still smiled and said, "I'm all ears."

Since we've gotten this far, Li Chen wasn't going to keep things a secret any longer.

He waved his hand dismissively, signaling the guards to withdraw. After all, these palace guards might as well not exist for someone like Jian Xin, a master of such high skill level.

Once everyone else had left, Li Chen spoke, "This palace plans to send someone to King Ning's territory. And since you have always been defiant of the imperial court, to avoid any accidents, this palace needs a capable expert who can protect those I send. That is why this palace sought you out."

Li Chen's words had barely left his lips when Jian Xin's face darkened. "You want me to be your bodyguard" he said. from the icy steel hilt. Nearly a thousand years had passed, yet time and wear hadn't corroded the blade; instead, they had only intensified its frigid edge, its point piercing the very heart.The off...
