376: You can think...I am just giving you a friendly reminder!

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Luo Hao's expression stiffened.

Then, his gaze turned towards him deeply.

"According to our previous agreement, the remaining people are yours to deal with!"

"I will not ask another word..."

After a moment of silence, Luo Hao's expression returned to calm, and he spoke in an indifferent tone.

This caused the Grey-robed Old Man in the air, as well as some surviving soldiers,

to have a drastic change in their expressions.

"Your Majesty?!"

"This old servant has rendered service to the Great Luo Imperial Dynasty, shedding blood for the Great Luo Imperial Dynasty, you cannot abandon me like this!!"

Feeling incredibly disbelieving, the Grey-robed Old Man roared loudly.

As he spoke, he even unleashed his cultivation, wanting to tear through the void and escape.

But this area was already sealed by Jiang Li; without breaking the demonic pattern seal, it was impossible to traverse the void.

And as he made his move,

Sky Evil and Tian Xingjian, with killing intent fully revealed, once again used their divine abilities to suppress and kill the opponent.

A terrifying battle erupted in the void once more.

However, Xiao Chen and the others paid no attention. After the protective barrier blocked the storm's impact, Xiao Chen's gaze was fixed on this Emperor.

"I didn't expect you to have such courage..."

With a glint in his eyes, Xiao Chen said in a low voice.

Having lost a son, to calm down so quickly, he truly lived up to being an Emperor of an Imperial Dynasty.

In this regard, he was somewhat similar to the former Huang Guang.

"A ruler's word is law!"

Luo Hao only replied with these few words indifferently upon hearing this.

In the Imperial Family,

worthless offspring are merely a lump of rotten flesh shot out, not even considered a person in the Emperor's eyes.

Although this statement sounds harsh, it is absolutely not exaggerated in the slightest.

Since ancient times, the Imperial Family has been heartless.

Especially towards offspring and concubines, this heartlessness reaches its peak.

After all, in the Emperor's eyes, there is basically only the imperial dynasty's enterprise and the ambition to expand territory.

The death of a few offspring or concubines is not a big deal at all.

"What a 'ruler's word is law'..."

Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this, and he continued in a low voice.

"Since that's the case, the grievances between this Gongzi and the Great Luo Imperial Dynasty end here. If you don't provoke this Gongzi in the future, this Gongzi won't look for trouble with you for no reason."

"But if, because of today's events, or for some other reason, you directly or indirectly cause any trouble for this Gongzi and his group."

"I think..."

"At that time, it won't be so easy for us to resolve things!"

As these words fell, Luo Hao's expression became even colder, and his gaze swept over Liu Ruoxian.

"Are you threatening this Emperor... not to reveal God Willow's whereabouts?"

"No, no, no, you can think of it as... this Gongzi is just kindly reminding you, lest you make a mistake in a moment of impulse."

Xiao Chen smiled indifferently upon hearing this, and replied calmly.

That unyielding manner,

even when facing the ruler of an Imperial Dynasty, without the slightest hint of nervousness or panic, caused Cai Yan and the others to show expressions of surprise.

To dare to face an Emperor Realm Expert with the cultivation of the Saint King Realm,

there are few in the entire Eastern Region with such courage.

"A kind reminder..."

Luo Hao looked deeply at Xiao Chen upon hearing this, and at this moment, he said nothing more.

This projection,

exploded and shattered in a flash of golden light, completely disappearing from this world.

And Xiao Chen just watched the other party leave, not letting Jiang Li and the others stop him.

The reason was simple.

At this time, Luo Hao was just a projection.

If they had attacked, they could have completely kept or shattered him, causing his main body to suffer backlash and injury.

But doing so,

would also completely enrage the other party, solidifying the situation.

By then,

this Great Luo Emperor would definitely contact the experts of the Dark Forbidden Zone to hunt down their group relentlessly.

So, killing his son was acceptable, but taking action against Luo Hao was not.

"Husband, this Great Luo Emperor is likely to be a variable..."

Watching Luo Hao's projection disappear, Cai Yan said with a heavy tone.

"If he is a smart Emperor, he won't expose Ruoxian for now."

"But during this time..."

"He should be figuring out the movements of the Dark Forbidden Zone experts and investigating all information about our group, so that he can be prepared with two options."

"One is..."

"After figuring out our group's background and feeling that our threat is not significant, he can use others to eliminate us."

"The other is..."

"After figuring out our group's background and feeling that he cannot contend with us, or even that we are stronger than the Dark Forbidden Zone."

"When we encounter the Dark Forbidden Zone experts, he can add insult to injury to completely resolve the grievances between the two sides, or even stand on the same side as our group."

After Cai Yan finished speaking, Xiao Chen voiced all his speculations.

This caused Jiang Li and Cai Yan and the others to widen their eyes.

They clearly hadn't expected

that Xiao Chen could fathom the Emperor's thoughts so thoroughly in such a short time.

From their perspective as leaders, these two options were undoubtedly the most rational, maximizing their own interests!

Indeed.

After Xiao Chen's words fell.

In the distant Great Luo Imperial Palace, a man sitting on the dragon throne suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.

A terrifying imperial might also permeated the hall.

"Old Hai, I have two things for you to do..."

"The first, find out the origins of these people for me as quickly as possible, but do not alarm them!"

Looking at a white-haired old man in the hall, Luo Hao said in a low voice.

As he spoke,

his eyes flickered slightly.

Light suddenly flashed in the hall, and the figures of Xiao Chen's group appeared in the Golden Imperial Hall.

This caused Old Hai's eyes to narrow sharply.

Because he actually saw two somewhat familiar figures, one was Liu Shen Female Emperor, who was famous throughout the entire Eastern Region, and the other seemed to be the Sect Master of the Great Wilderness Sect in the Cangxuan Realm?

The others looked unfamiliar, but each of them had an extraordinary demeanor.

Especially the cold and handsome This Young Master leading them, who had an indescribable aura about him.

"The other matter..."

"Send people to closely monitor the experts of the Dark Forbidden Zone, and where they are now hiding after entering the various realms of the Eastern Region."

"Especially in the Southern Xuantian Realm, are there any people from the Demon Spirit Race!"

"If you learn that people from the Dark Night Demon Spirit Race have come into contact with this group, be sure to notify me immediately!"

Just as Xiao Chen had guessed, Luo Hao issued these two orders.

Saying this,

Luo Hao seemed to remember something and continued in a deep voice.

"Also..."

"Issue an imperial decree informing Rain Consort that the Eighteenth Prince was ambushed by experts from Sky Demon Mountain while traveling to the Southern Xuantian Realm, and I was unable to save his life."

"Order Chen Bei Wang to lead 100,000 soldiers and immediately head to Sky Demon Mountain to avenge the Eighteenth Prince!"

Sky Demon Mountain.

was a significant obstacle to the Great Luo Imperial Dynasty's expansion towards the southwest.

But because there were two Emperor Lord Realm experts guarding it, along with shadows of other forces behind it,

Luo Hao had never found an excuse to act.

This time, Luo Chenfeng's death became a breakthrough.

After all,

Luo Chenfeng had suffered an assassination attempt two years ago, suspected to be the work of Sky Demon Mountain experts.

Therefore, his birth mother,

had used the Yu Family's connections to enlist an Emperor Lord expert to protect Luo Chenfeng.

That is the Grey-robed Old Man.

Now, facing Xiao Chen's group, it is unlikely that he will return alive.

Even if he didn't die,

with his negotiation with Xiao Chen just now, the other party would surely control his life, and he would have a handle on Xiao Chen's group.

This guy definitely wouldn't transmit the truth of Luo Chenfeng's death to the higher-ups of the Yu Family!
