79: Humble Moon Demon
Once the seeds of suspicion are sown.
Liu Ming would find that many things became reasonable.
Only Wang Li had the status and ability to steal his fire seed.
Thinking of this, he took out a storage ring.
And threw it directly to Chen Xian.
"Consider this a deposit! If what you said is true, then at this time tomorrow, I will give you more Medicinal Pills here!"
After saying that, Liu Ming left in a hurry.
The whole process took less than five minutes.
These short few minutes left Zhao Hu dumbfounded.
No, Young Lord, this move of yours to shift the trouble onto others.
Isn't it a bit too smooth?
He found a big trouble for Wang Li with almost no effort.
However, Zhao Hu still reminded him in a low voice, "Young Lord, even if this Demon Seed has strength, it's impossible for him to truly do anything to Wang Li!"
"I know."
Chen Xian revealed a cold smile.
"But isn't it fine just to disgust him?"
After the two of them came out of the black market, they took off their masks and went straight home.
At this time, in the Jubei Marquiss Residence.
A cat and a dog were facing off.
To be precise, Da Huang was constantly baring its teeth at the White Cat.
While the White Cat curled up in the corner, shivering.
Zhou Duoer's sympathy originally overflowed and she wanted to pull Da Huang away, but she found that Da Huang was blocking the White Cat with an almost stubborn posture.
Baring its teeth, it let out a low growl.
It wasn't until Chen Xian came in, picked up the White Cat, and walked into the study.
"Meow..."
The White Cat was thrown onto the ground and let out a dissatisfied meow.
Chen Xian, however, gave a light wave of his hand.
The White Cat on the ground quickly let out a roar.
"I, the dignified Moon Demon, am actually sharing a body with a beast. Chen Xian, release me quickly!"
Chen Xian looked down at the White Cat.
He said with a cold smile, "Moon Demon, what right do you have to order me? Don't forget now, you are my servant!"
"Damned Human Race, sooner or later, I will skin you alive and pull out your tendons!"
Just as the Moon Demon finished speaking.
Chen Xian flicked his finger.
The Moon Demon let out a shrill cry from within the White Cat's body.
Then, panting, it shouted, "What exactly will it take to release me?"
Chen Xian said with a cold smile, "Moon Demon, do you think it's possible for me to release you now?"
"However, things are not without a turning point!"
"I have heard that there are countless rare treasures in the Moon Demon Palace. If you hand them over, I can grant you a way to live!"
Hearing this, the Moon Demon.
Said weakly, "There are indeed countless treasures in the Moon Demon Palace, but when I fell, the Moon Demon Palace was already buried in the Central Continent Abyss. Time has passed, and I no longer know what it's like there."
"I..."
"Stop talking nonsense. When I head to the Central Continent in the future, see the Moon Demon Palace, and get the things inside, only then will I release you. Until then, stay here honestly and work for me!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
The Moon Demon was so angry at Chen Xian's words that smoke almost came out of its ears.
But it was helpless.
Who told it to be a prisoner now?
Evening.
Chen Xian stood obediently at the door, listening to an effeminate person reading the Imperial Decree in his hand.
"Li Yu, Wang Li, Chen Xian, and other promising talents of the Da Gan Dynasty are ordered to go to the Lake Bottom Secret Realm to win glory for the court!"
"Heir Chen, receive the decree!"
Chen Xian tremblingly received the Imperial Decree, while smilingly placing a bag of Spirit Stones into the other's hand.
"Eunuch, this junior thanks you for coming personally to inform me. This small gift is for your tea!"
Eunuch Zhang weighed the weight of the cloth bag in his hand.
He said with a smile, "The Heir is joking. Your Majesty asked this old servant to notify the prodigies of Jubei City to go to the Lake Bottom Secret Realm together."
"This matter is of great importance, so please be careful, Heir!"
After he finished speaking, he left with a few small eunuchs.
As for Chen Xian, he looked at the Imperial Decree in his hand, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn.
This was indeed of great importance!
For a mere Secret Realm, the Emperor actually personally issued a decree to intervene. It was fine to let Li Yu and the others go, after all, they were considered the top tier of North Continent prodigies.
But a little rookie like himself at the Sixth Level of Qi Refining.
Why did he have to go down?
Could it be that the Emperor saw him hitting on his daughter and felt unhappy, so he wanted to take this opportunity to kill him?
But if that were the case, there was no need to use an Imperial Decree to bind him.
While Chen Xian was completely puzzled.
Zhao Hu and the others also gathered around.
"Young Lord, if we go to the Lake Bottom Secret Realm this time, I'm afraid we won't be able to follow. It's likely to be extremely dangerous, why don't we..."
"If we don't go, that would be defying the decree!"
Chen Xian said in a cold tone, "In that case, I might not even live to the moment the Secret Realm opens!"
"It seems we can only take things as they come."
Evening.
Chen Xian continued to practice his sword in the back garden.
No, he had to become even strongerOnly then.
Otherwise, he couldn't even resist this single Imperial Decree.
How could he deal with a Saint in the future!
How could he protect the Immaculate Sacred Body within his body?
After finishing a set of sword dances.
Chen Xian was drenched in sweat.
He sent Zhou Duoer to serve him for a bath.
At the same time.
Above the Jubei Marquiss Residence.
A figure stood in the night sky for a long time until a sound came from behind.
He didn't look back and said faintly, "You're here!"
The man who walked up from behind was in armor, with a surcoat and belt.
Looking at this black figure, he said with a smile, "Why not go down and meet him? Our Great Nephew is making rapid progress now!"
"Still not enough! The Emperor has already noticed him. Sending his personal eunuch to deliver the decree is the most obvious signal."
Chen Buyu narrowed his eyes, looking down at the Marquis Jubeis Residence.
"That old Emperor is really devious. If we step forward to block it, he will charge us with forming a faction for private interests. If we don't act, whether our Great Nephew can hold on is still up in the air!"
The black figure said in a raspy voice, "Cook said that Chen Xian has to cross this hurdle himself. Since that's the case, let him forge his own path!"
"If we interfere too much, how can he grow up on his own?"
After the black figure finished speaking.
He disappeared from the spot.
Chen Buyu also gave a bitter smile.
And left the place.
As for Chen Xian, he came out after taking a bath.
He subconsciously looked toward that part of the night sky.
Strange, I feel like someone was watching me just now?
Could it be someone coveting my beauty?
Until late at night.
Only then did Chen Xian leave the residence silently.
The Shadow Guards in the dark naturally observed this scene, but no one moved.
Without Chen Xian's order, they naturally wouldn't follow him on their own initiative.
The night in Jubei City.
Besides being quiet, it had a few more hints of killing intent.
Especially at Wang Li's residence.
Having just seen off the eunuch from the palace.
Wang Li's face was almost numb from smiling. Although he was the Young Lord of the Tianqi Sect, he still had to observe the necessary social etiquette.
"The Lake Bottom Secret Realm, it seems that this time the Southern Continent and the North Continent will have a contest."
"Just right, this time I can also settle the score."
