Just as Fen Xiangxiang was about to rush out to the palace to take a look, the Sixth Prince, Fen Cheng, walked out with his two bodyguards from the palace. However, at that moment, the gloominess in the corner of Fen Cheng's eyes had disappeared, and was filled with pride ?
After the Sixth Prince, Fen Cheng, left, Li Chen found a chance to teleport again and in the next instant, the two of them appeared beside the bed of the Fen Di in the palace.
The moment Fen Xiangxiang came out, he immediately saw the Fen Di who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his face ghastly pale.
"Ah, you are... "Someone come, an assassin is here ?" The palace maids by the side saw two people suddenly appear within the palace. Although the figure of one of the two people looked extremely familiar, they all wore veils, making it so that these palace maids could not see the person's face clearly. Thus, they hurriedly called out.
"Ah, ahem ?" You are... Guard, cough cough ? Make them... Cough ? "Take him down ?" But when Fen Di heard the palace maids, he opened his eyes and saw Li Chen and Fen Xiangxiang standing beside his bed. He was also shocked at this moment and the two of them appeared beside his bed without moving. With just that one sentence, Fen Di was completely exhausted, and his face was even paler than what Fen Xiangxiang had seen just now.
"Wuwuwu ?" royal father ? " When Fen Xiangxiang saw Fen Di's current appearance, he was choked with sobs ?
How dare you, you maniac, break into the palace." "Go, capture them ?" After the guards outside heard the palace maids' cries of shock, they immediately entered the palace, and saw Li Chen and Fen Xiangxiang standing with their backs facing them. Thus, a guard from the Martial King Realm said.
"Mm ?" At first, Li Chen did not mind too much when he heard the surprised cries of the maids. After all, he felt that it was unavoidable for the two of them to be discovered entering the palace. Li Chen made a soft sound of acknowledgement before taking off his conical hat. At the same time, he ignored the Fen Di's astonishment at seeing Li Chen's appearance. He turned around. At the same time, he spread out his cultivation ?
"Are you trying to capture us?" Li Chen said.
"Ah, you are... Lord Li, this aura ? "So powerful ?" When the guard who seemed to be the leader saw Li Chen take off the bamboo hat and turn around, he immediately exclaimed. at the same time, he was shocked by the aura Li Chen was giving off.
"Bai Zilin?" Li Chen turned around and asked in confusion, because the person who appeared before him was the one who was at the second level of Martial King, Bai Zilin, when he was the great general protector of the nation. However, Li Chen could already feel that his cultivation had already reached the sixth level of Martial King.
"It's really you, Lord Li ?" "Alright, you can all leave now. This isn't an assassin ?" Bai Zilin said to the guards who came in behind him. Because these guards were all newly recruited into the guard army, most of them did not recognize Li Chen. Thus, when they heard the words of their guard, Lord Zhang Bai, although they were puzzled, they all obediently went out ?
"Father, it's me ?" It was during the conversation between Li Chen and Bai Zilin that Fen Xiangxiang had taken off his veil as well, and then, he jogged in front of Fen Di, knelt in front of Fen Di's bed, and held his hand as he spoke.
"You, Li Chen ? Cough ? So it's you, thief ? Bai Zilin, why aren't you... Fragrance, it's you ? "Cough, cough ?" When Fen Di saw Li Chen's face, he was actually prepared to let Bai Zilin catch him. However, as soon as he saw Fen Xiangxiang, who was standing in front of him and softly calling him royal father, he asked in shock.
"Father, it's me, it's me! What's wrong ?" "Sob, sob, sob ?" Fen Xiangxiang replied and then cried.
"Ah, fragrant. It's really you, cough cough ? Do you know that these few years Royal Father ? Cough cough ? How much I missed you ? Cough cough ? It's good that you're back... Cough cough ? Don't worry, royal father will never ? Marry you to someone you don't like... "Cough, cough, cough ?" Seeing that it was really Fen Xiangxiang, Fen Di's face suddenly recovered a bit of color, and then said happily.
In truth, ever since the Fen Di was laid on the bed, he had thought about many things, and regretted his decisions to develop in the ancient country. For example, in order to pull the heart of the Xiong Family, he had forcefully added Fen Xiangxiang, who was unwilling to marry into the Xiong Family, out.
But seeing that Fen Xiangxiang had returned, Fen Di was very happy.
After Fen Xiangxiang heard Fen Di's words, he choked with emotions and said, "Father, this son is also in the wrong. I shouldn't have stayed here for so long, but this son is truly afraid that you will force me to marry out of here ? "Sob, sob, sob ?"
"Foolish child, don't cry. Cough cough ? Ever since royal father got sick, he also ? Cough cough ? He had thought through many things on this sickbed. No, in the future, who are you willing to marry ? Cough cough ? Marry whoever you want ? "But all these years you've been going there ?" After Fen Di saw that Fen Xiangxiang had returned, his condition seemed to have improved. As he spoke, he also coughed less ?
Seeing that Fen Xiangxiang and the Fen Di had gotten back to business, Li Chen turned his head and asked Bai Zilin, "Bai Zilin, why are you in the guard army now?"
"Lord Li, this is something that you don't know about. Many major events have occurred in the ten years since you left ?" Bai Zilin said to Li Chen.
After that, from Bai Zilin's explanation to Li Chen, Li Chen found out that a decisive battle had broken out between the two Ancient Kingdoms not long after he left, but halfway through the decisive battle, when the voodoo was about to achieve victory, the voodoo retreated. The people from the Brahma were confused, but they also felt like they had been reborn from a calamity. After that, only through the spies the Brahma had planted in the voodoo did they know that just as the voodoo's army was about to achieve victory, the voodoo's Imperial Palace underwent a change. Thus, the voodoo Emperor had no choice but to order the army at the frontlines to retreat, in order to calm the sudden change in the situation.
After that, although the voodoo's mutiny had been pacified, the voodoo's strength had decreased by a lot. The Emperor of voodoo no longer had the mood to continue fighting with the Brahma, so the two countries signed a peace agreement at the border. The agreement lasted for two hundred years, and since war was not allowed to break out, the two countries once again maintained their peaceful relationship on the surface ?
From Bai Zilin's explanation, Li Chen found out that the Fen Di had fainted three years ago when they were in the imperial court on a certain day. Although the palace's alchemist masters and imperial physicians looked at them one by one, they all came to the same conclusion, as they did not find anything wrong with the Fen Di's body, it was all very healthy. As a result, Fen Di did not take this matter to heart, but as time passed, the condition of his body improved daily, and after another half year, he fell on his sickbed. From then to now, although there were alchemist grandmasters who would occasionally check on his body, they did not find any problems, but these alchemy masters could feel that his lifespan was rapidly decreasing ?
"Lord Li, come here, I have a guess. I want to tell you ?" After Bai Zilin finished speaking to Li Chen, he took a glance at the Fen Di and Fen Xiangxiang who were still reminiscing about the past, and as if he had made some sort of decision, he told Li Chen as he pulled his arm to move behind a pillar in the palace ?
"Lord Li, I feel that Fen Di's illness has something to do with the Sixth Prince ?" Behind the pillar, Bai Zilin said to Li Chen in a low voice.
"Oh, why is that... Also, didn't the Sixth Prince become the emperor of a territory? Why did he return to the Capital ? " After hearing what Bai Zilin had said, Li Chen asked suspiciously.
"To tell you the truth, Lord Li, this is the reason for my speculation. Half a year later, after the Fen Di had laid behind his sickbed, two years ago, the Fen Di suddenly issued an order for the Sixth Prince to return to the imperial capital, and even restored his status as a prince. This Sixth Prince came to the palace almost every day to visit the Fen Di, and a year and a half passed, which was to say half a year ago, the Sixth Prince's position had been reinstated by the Fen Di ? "However, in the past two months, the Sixth Prince has always appeared at the corners of his eyes every day when he comes to this palace ?" Bai Zilin explained to Li Chen.
"Oh, so it was an inexplicable mystery that was brought back to the imperial city, and the position of the crown prince was also restored. Looks like there really is something fishy about this ?" "Fine, wait until night, then let me investigate this Sixth Prince's background ?" Li Chen said.
"Sir Li, if you go alone, I'm afraid ?" That Sixth Prince's estate is currently under heavy security ? " Bai Zilin said worriedly.
"Haha, no worries. I wonder if the Sixth Prince has any cultivators with Martial Saint above?" Li Chen asked with a smile.
"Martial Saint, Lord Li must be joking. However, the Sixth Prince does not have more than twenty Martial King s by his side right now ? "
"Alright, Bai Zilin. Don't worry, since there's no one at the Martial Saint rank, then I'll go in in broad daylight and be fine. "Because ?" Li Chen interrupted Bai Zilin as he said this, then he released all of his presence and pressed it against Bai Zilin.
"Plop ?" could not handle the pressure and directly knelt on the ground. Then, Bai Zilin could not care about the awkwardness anymore as he looked at Li Chen in shock.
"Lord Li." You, you, broke through to the Martial Arts, Martial Saint ? " Bai Zilin stuttered.
"That's right ?" Li Chen replied, and then pulled Bai Zilin up who was still in shock.
Just as Li Chen was about to ask Bai Zi some more questions, Li Chen suddenly heard Fen Xiangxiang calling him.
