The Emperor of the Three Realms

chapter 147

Big brother Liu, this time we are here to support the first prince. If we handle this matter through the first prince and the Dragon Tooth Guard exerts pressure, we can definitely swallow the child. When that happened, his possessions.” The triangular-eyed youth handed this plan over to Liu Can.    

When they, half-step spirit realm practitioners, fought relentlessly to divide the spoils of battle, it instead gave Jiang Chen the chance to escape the crack and escape.    

Now that Liu Can had ascended to the first level spirit realm and his training had improved tremendously, he had incredible strength and thus others naturally made him their head. They no longer dared to talk about equal division.    

Liu Can nodded his head viciously, The first “Prince has great ambitions and is not too interested in money. However, there were two beautiful women among the followers of the child, and their appearance was indeed tolerable. They have quite exotic aura. The first prince liked this kind of thing. If we can offer both to the first prince, this will be very helpful.”    

“Alright, then it's done. Its beauty will be given to the first prince, and we will still divide the child's belongings according to our agreement last time. How about that?" Yi Qiansui slapped the table and exclaimed.    

Everyone's gazes looked towards Liu Can simultaneously. All just nonsense if senior brother Liu does not nod his head.    

Liu Can had also considered the needs of the people, and he had to reward them if he wanted them to do everything in their power. He immediately nodded, “Alright, we will proceed as agreed last time. You will all receive two spirit beasts, and everyone can make a copy of any martial method or secret art.”    

After all, there was a fundamental difference between a half-step spirit realm and a first-rate spirit realm. Everyone was overjoyed to hear Liu Can agree.    

“Sister Liu, this problem should not be postponed. Let's visit the first prince now!”    

…    

Two hours later, at the residence of the first prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom.    

“Liu Can, this person you are talking about, do you know his background?” First prince Ye Dai smiled faintly.    

"The background?" Liu Can started. “We rushed to the capital after receiving the first prince's call and really haven't had a chance to ask this matter. Could this kid have a strong background?”    

The first prince Ye Dai was the prince with the greatest reputation among all the princes in the Skylaurel Kingdom, dozens of thousands of people only focused on him. He is one of the hottest contenders to become the next king.    

His skin was as clear as jade, his gaze as clear as stars. Every movement and motion of his body looked graceful and dapper.    

“He doesn't have much background, but it's quite interesting. Unfortunately he was meant to be an enemy and not a friend.”    

“Your Majesty, why did you say so?” Liu Can was a little surprised.    

“This person is from the Eastern Kingdom, and was a legendary figure in the Eastern Kingdom some time ago. His name was Jiang Chen, and he had once suppressed the Long family's rebellion attempt at the Eastern Kingdom.”    

“Eastern Kingdom?” Liu Can was worried that he would antagonize someone he could not afford to do so. His heart felt light when he heard the Eastern Kingdom. “That little kingdom? No matter how legendary he is in a small kingdom, that should be his limit.”    

First prince Ye Dai smiled, “Intelligence indicates that the first person this person visited in the capital was the number four person of our family.”    

“Fourth prince, His Highness Ye Rong?”    

“To be right, our number four player usually reveals nothing about him and looks very humble. But you are wrong if you think he is someone who accepts his fate in life. Why did this Jiang Chen come to the Skylaurel Kingdom? Number four is definitely planning something in the background.”    

Liu Can thought hard, “Your Majesty, you mean? We gotta…"    

Liu Can stopped and raised his right hand, making a downward cutting motion.    

“Jiang Chen killed your Azure Northern Heaven Palace disciple, the laws of the country will not forgive his actions. Your Utara Palace won't topple over and pretend to be dead, will it?    

Liu Can was beaming with joy. Although the first prince did not say it literally, this was already a very clear indication. This signaled them to take issue with this matter and punish Jiang Chen to death.    

“Please calm down, Your Majesty. Where will my Utara Palace put our faces if we let a foreign boy roam inside the Skylaurel Kingdom? We will file a serious complaint to the Dragon Tooth Guard and ask them to arbitrate with justice, blood for blood!” A cynical smile was seen on Liu Can's face.    

“There are many of us on the side of Dragonteeth Guard. I will instruct the others to pay attention to this matter. The four great sites were forts erected by the Precious Tree Sect in the Skylaurel Kingdom. Beating one of the disciples of the four great sites to death was a slap on the face of the Skylaurel Kingdom, and moreover, a slap on the face of the Precious Tree Sect!” Ye Dai's tone of voice was grim.    

Liu Can rejoiced in private. He was strongly convinced by the first prince's assurance.    

Heh heh, Jiang Chen right? The legendary character of the Eastern Kingdom right? Now that you have come to my Skylaurel Kingdom, you should sit down even though you are a dragon, and lie down even though you are a tiger. This time I will humiliate you slowly, torture you, and then kill you. I'll take your woman and steal your fortune!”    

…    

Jiang Chen sat on a chair with his eyes closed. It had been about two hours since he was brought here.    

This room has bright windows and neat chairs, even the chair is made of high-quality gold rosewood.    

No one had come to question him or talk to him since he was brought here.    

Jiang Chen knew that this was a tacit treatment.    

Before the Dragon Tooth Guard sorted out his background, they could only use this kind of method that did not offend or praise him.    

He also knew that after these two hours had passed, everyone on all sides would start moving. What needs to be investigated will also be investigated.    

What happens next will not be as peaceful as it has been before.    

Throwing all those random thoughts into the back of his mind, Jiang Chen calmed his mind according to Boulder's Heart art and set the events of the past few days in his mind.    

The door opened with a squeak.    

All the other Dragon Tooth Guards automatically stood beside or behind this person.    

“General Lu, this is it.” One of the captains spoke in a lick tone in front of this person as if he was licking.    

“You're called Jiang Chen? You're from the Eastern Kingdom?” General Lu, who had a sinister expression, asked in a grim tone.    

"Indeed."    

“You beat a Northern Palace disciple to death, did this happen?”    

“I beat to death a criminal who committed a robbery in the street.” A trace of vigilance appeared in Jiang Chen's heart when he heard the other party's tone of voice.    

“Omong empty! The identity of the Northern Palace disciple was noble and majestic, why would he be able to carry out a robbery in broad daylight?”    

“Honourable identity means that one will not commit robbery in broad daylight?” Jiang Chen glanced at the others. “Please forgive me for not fully understanding your logic.”    

“Son, this is our General Lu, you better behave! Why are you being so arrogant?” A Dragon Tooth Guard behind General Lu shouted.    

“Being cocky? Dealing with this problem is called cocky?”    

Bam!    

General Lu slammed his fist into the table. “Jiang Chen, I don't like to waste time with empty chat. You beat a disciple of the Northern Palace to death and now they are asking me for his killer. You should acknowledge your guilt and be subject to any judgment so that we can deal with the matter fairly and impartially. If you keep putting up a hard fight..”    

“General Lu, right?” Jiang Chen spread out his hand, cutting the other hand. “Don't give me this talk either. It's a proper self-defense for me to beat criminals to death. I do not admit guilt. In addition, your words have shown your bias, what more talk might be done to deal with the matter impartially? Aren't you ashamed to say such a thing?”    

“This means you intend to stubbornly resist until the end?” General Lu laughed coldly in succession.    

“Jiang Chen, we can give you one last chance. You kill someone in broad daylight, do you admit it or not?”    

Jiang Chen shook his head lightly. “Nothing I need to admit.”    

"Very good! It seems that you will not let go of your false hopes until everything is done, and have hardened your heart to fight the Dragonteeth Guard. Take him away and place him in the Black Underground Room!”    

The Black Subterranean Space was where the Dragon Tooth Guard held back the repeat offenders of grave crimes.    

Once a person was sent to the Black Underground Room, they almost never made it back alive.    

There was basically only one possibility to be able to get out of the Black Subterranean Space, and it was dragged out to be executed.    

Another possibility is that a person enters with both feet and lies down into a corpse upon exiting.    

Several Dragon Tooth Guards guarded Jiang Chen and arrived at the area of the Black Subterranean Space.    

“Sial, this place always feels spooky every time we approach it. The back of my neck and head feels tingling from the cold.” One of the Dragonteeth Guards complained.    

“Huh, stop complaining. Quickly throw this kid over there so we can report back to General Lu.”    

“I said son, is there anything valuable about you? Hurry up and hand it over. Maybe if our mood is good, we will convey some messages to you with your last words.”    

“Crue. When you were in the Black Underground Room, not even your bones would be left, let alone your precious items. You will bring gifts for the trash if you bring something nice.”    

Their words were already treating Jiang Chen as a dead man.    

Jiang Chen remained calm like a cucumber while smiling faintly. The Dragon Tooth Guard in charge of escorting him was clearly a minor character. There is no point in verbally arguing with them.    

“Yo boy! You have courage, right? Don't blame me for not reminding you. Even if you were born and raised in the Skylaurel Kingdom, the only way for you is death after you offend the Northern Palace, moreover you are actually a stranger. Unless you are one of the disciples of the three big sites and have a great protector supporting you, you are dead.”    

“Number seven, stop talking nonsense with him! Would he be sent to the Black Dungeons if he had a great protector? General Lu himself is leading the case, doesn't that make the case quite clear? Those at the top wanted him dead, there was no way he was allowed to continue living.”    

“Heh heh, this kid is quite tough in that regard. He did not beg for mercy even until now.”    

“Alright, we've reached the Black Dungeons area. Let's stop for a moment.” The captain waved his hand and looked at Jiang Chen, measuring it. “Nak, let's talk honestly. There's no way you can leave after you get here. You have two choices. First, secretly leave anything of value to you and save us from seeking you out. The second option would be a little offensive. If you don't give up everything secretly, then we have to do it ourselves. I'll warn you beforehand, things will not be civilized if we have to take action ourselves.    

“Are you sure that you are a Dragon Tooth Guard and not a disciple of the Northern Palace?” Jiang Chen asked weakly.    

"What do you mean?" The captain asked blankly.    

“The disciples of the Northern Palace are experts in carrying out robberies. What do you do including extortion and extortion? Or was it just a blatant robbery?” Jiang Chen asked casually.    

“Son, it looks like you've hardened your heart!” The captain flicked his sleeve, “Then don't blame us for being unkind. Number six and seven, let him go!”    

"Stop!" A majestic voice sounded at this moment.
