Chapter 251 Well... then I won't be polite.

Yan Chu listened from outside the hall for a while, his expression exceptionally colorful.

At this moment, in his heart, there was nothing but the word "admiration."

"Could it be that the feng shui of Central Province is truly different from other provinces, endlessly producing talents?"

Yan Chu was deeply puzzled.

First, there was Wuchang from Red Sleeve Beckon who castrated himself to Cultivate, and now a current prince who cuckolded himself to vie for the throne.

Truly, the people of Central Province are different; they are all capable of doing big things!

No wonder Central Province's Jianghu produces so many experts, capable of securing the entire Great Jin Dynasty.

Perhaps, besides Central Province siphoning half of the world's resources, it also has to do with the fact that everyone here is full of ambition!

In a word, everyone is like a Dragon! Everyone is upwardly mobile!

"Ahem!"

Having listened for a while outside, Yan Chu finally gave a light cough and stepped into the hall.

The three people in the hall trembled and hurriedly turned around in unison.

"Great Hero Yan!"

"This prince greets Great Hero Yan!"

The attitudes of Li Che and Duan Yunkou were completely different from a few days ago; there was much more respect in their tone and actions, and more awe in their hearts.

After all, the person they were facing was a Heavenly Person.

And a young Heavenly Person with limitless potential who already had the record of slaying another Heavenly Person.

It was an existence not on the same level as the Earth Ranking strength they had previously assumed.

Princess Consort Zhu Qinxue, however, had different thoughts.

She had already prepared herself mentally to face a terrifying and ugly man like a demon, but upon seeing the Great Hero Yan that Li Che and the other spoke of, she couldn't help but be stunned.

"This is the Blade Demon?"

Looking through the black cloud veil on her head.

A tall, handsome young man stood at the entrance of the main hall.

His face was like jade, his eyes like bright stars, and his long hair was draped over his shoulders.

He wore an ink-colored brocade robe with cloud patterns draped casually over his body, the collar wide open, faintly revealing the smooth-lined muscles above his chest, and beneath that was a white inner garment.

Such casual attire, if worn by someone else, would have been lewd and vulgar, but on Yan Chu, not only was there no hint of lewdness, it instead highlighted his confidence, free-spiritedness, and unruliness.

After thinking about it for a moment, Zhu Qinxue understood why.

Because Yan Chu was too confident.

The confidence radiating from him was from head to toe, as if everything in the world was under his control, and nothing could stump him.

Confident, domineering, dashing—this was Yan Chu's first impression on Zhu Qinxue.

Of course, Yan Chu's handsome appearance was also impossible to ignore.

He was even a few degrees more handsome than Prince Qing, Li Che, beside her.

Moreover, Li Che was deep and calculating, with a high opinion of himself, yet in front of this legendary Blade Demon Yan Chu, he only dared to be respectful, completely different from how he was in front of her.

Zhu Qinxue breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems rumors are indeed unreliable; the Blade Demon Yan Chu is clearly such a handsome and outstanding person, how could he be some lecherous, vein-popping brute?

Her face, still stained with dried tears, couldn't help but heat up slightly, a rosy glow covering her delicate face. Fortunately, the veil hat shielded it, so others couldn't see clearly.

"Your Highness, I wonder what brings you here today?"

Yan Chu's gaze swept over Princess Consort Zhu Qinxue without a trace; every part of her body appeared before his eyes as if undefended.

"Gentle and virtuous, elegant and lovely!"

"Li Che is truly willing to part with her!"

Yan Chu thought to himself.

Li Che wore a rich smile and said to Yan Chu in a fawning manner:

"Great Hero Yan, you have really kept this prince in the dark! Everyone in the world says you have Earth Ranking strength, but they don't know that you are already a Heavenly Person who has opened a Divine Treasury, ranking at the pinnacle of Jianghu. Even Old Man Bu Sha, who has been a Heavenly Person for many years, is no match for you."

"In time, you will surely open all three Divine Treasuries and become a peerless expert with the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown!"

Yan Chu chuckled and said:

"Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown is but an illusion, and the clouds beneath one's feet are not real either!"

"A great dream must eventually end, rootless and boundless, all returns to dust!"

"The matter of Cultivating has never been accomplished overnight; it requires taking one step at a time. Although I have advanced to a Heavenly Person, I have never dared to hope for the Three Flowers; everything is just following the natural flow!"

"Eh?"

After hearing the poem Yan Chu recited offhand, Duan Yunkou immediately fell into deep thought, feeling that it contained profound philosophy, and couldn't help but have an epiphany.

He is truly a once-in-a-millennium Prodigy, the youngest Heavenly Person; a casual remark possesses such supreme, wondrous principles.

Li Che didn't have the same thoughts as Duan Yunkou; he only wanted Yan Chu to support him, so he continued to flatter:

"Not at all, not at all!"

"If even Great Hero Yan cannot refine the Three Flowers, then I fear no one in the world can!"

Zhu Qinxue listened quietly, head bowed.

In just a few sentences, she could see Li Che's fawning over Yan Chu. This young man not only radiated powerful charisma, but his strength was also enough to make a prince have to curry favor with him.

Yan Chu wore an indifferent smile.

He really didn't want to continue exchanging pleasantries with the other party; there was still a gang leader's wife waiting for him in the room.

It had been over fifteen minutes; she should have rested enough, right?

So Yan Chu asked:

"I wonder what urgent matter brings the Fourth Prince here today?"

"To tell you the truth, I was just in seclusion Cultivating, and I had reached a critical juncture. Hearing that you were visiting, I came out of seclusion specifically to see you."

The housekeeper of Red Leaf Villa, waiting outside the hall, almost couldn't hold back his expression upon hearing Yan Chu's words.

You did indeed just come out of seclusion, it's just that this particular pass was a bit unusual.

Li Che was also a quick-witted person. Hearing Yan Chu's indifferent attitude, he felt a bit awkward and hurriedly pulled the slender arm of Zhu Qinxue beside him, saying:

"Hearing that Great Hero Yan lives here alone, this prince worried that you might have trouble sleeping, so I have specially brought you a stunning beauty of extraordinary status to warm your quilt and attend to your pillow, to relieve your loneliness."

Zhu Qinxue was pulled in front of Li Che and introduced like merchandise. Her heart was even more filled with shame and indignation, her head bowed deeply, revealing her snow-white neck.

"Oh?"

A look of surprise appeared on Yan Chu's face, and his smile became a bit more genuine.

"Since that is the case, then Yan will not stand on ceremony!"

"Many thanks, Fourth Prince!"

This thank you from Yan Chu was sincere.

Anyway, since even Li Che himself didn't care, why should he?

It just so happened that Peng Qi alone couldn't bear it and kept begging for mercy; having another person to share the burden of battle was a good thing.

As for Li Che's demands, Yan Chu understood them very well.

It was nothing more than vying for the throne!

This matter would depend on his future performance; it wasn't as if he had sent his Princess Consort over, and Yan Chu would immediately be dead set on helping him.

The price of the two was simply not equal.

If he wants him to help vie for the throne, in a word, he has to pay more!

Seeing Yan Chu's expression, Li Che was overjoyed.

He knew he had sent Zhu Qinxue correctly; this was Yan Chu's weakness.

Once he finds out Zhu Qinxue's identity, he will surely be even more excited, right?

In this way, even if he couldn't get Yan Chu to fully support him, it would at least make him lean towards his side.

The future throne is within reach!
