I'm Just a Little Prince-Why Would I Need an Assassination Organization?

"Are you satisfied with the reward your Imperial Father gave you?"

The Azure Emperor watched Lu Chen finish eating and asked with a beaming smile.

"I'm satisfied. Extremely satisfied!"

Lu Chen nodded repeatedly at those words. However, after a pause, he spoke with some concern.

"Imperial Father, you promised yesterday that you owed me a request. That still counts, right?"

"Hahahaha, of course it counts! A sovereign's word is his bond!"

Seeing Lu Chen's cautious expression, the Azure Emperor could not help bursting into laughter.

He was still just a child, after all.

"Hehe!"

Lu Chen chuckled. After a pause, he put down his chopsticks and got to the point.

"Imperial Father, is there anything you need me to help you with? You're too good to me, so I want to repay you!"

Lu Chen asked earnestly.

At that moment, Lu Chen was genuinely nervous.

He was afraid that if the Azure Emperor brought up something too difficult for him, he would probably be screwed.

A Heaven Tier Top-Grade treasure sword, after all!!!

"Hm?"

The Azure Emperor froze at those words. Then he looked at Lu Chen again, the smile on his face growing wider.

What a good child! He was only six, yet he already knew how to share his worries!

"I'm your Imperial Father. Treating you well is only natural. How could I ask anything of you?"

The Azure Emperor spoke with a chuckle.

"Oh, Imperial Father, I have the heart to do this, so just agree, all right? Anything is fine, as long as I can help you with your worries!"

Lu Chen's heart sank at those words.

As expected, in the Azure Emperor's eyes, he was still just a child. The Azure Emperor was a mighty figure who had even surpassed the Land Immortal Realm. How could he possibly let Lu Chen help resolve his troubles?

"Hm?"

Seeing how insistent Lu Chen was, the Azure Emperor's expression remained indifferent, but he was deeply moved inside.

The Azure Emperor did not like brushing people off, either.

Thus, he gave a soft hum and actually began thinking seriously.

Across from him, Lu Chen saw the Azure Emperor's pensive expression and secretly rejoiced, filled with anticipation.

"If we're talking about my troubles, as the Azure Emperor of the Great Qian Divine Dynasty, I have far too many of them. But as for a current concern, there really is one!"

The Azure Emperor's eyes flickered as he stared intently at Lu Chen.

No, something was very, very wrong.

Looking at the Azure Emperor's gaze, Lu Chen's heart sank. He had a vague feeling that something was off.

"Through the Son of Heaven's Qi Gazing Technique, I saw that Old Luo's precious daughter, Luo Li, possesses heaven-shaking fortune. If that girl marries into our imperial family, she'll surely add boundless foundations to our clan. Alas, I've never been able to find a suitable match. Tell me, whom should I betroth Little Luo Li to?"

The Azure Emperor shook his head and sighed.

When Lu Chen heard that, he felt terrible from head to toe.

He looked at the Azure Emperor awkwardly.

Heaven-shaking fortune?

She was a transmigrated Immortal Emperor and would become a Heaven's Human Realm expert in the future. Of course she had heaven-shaking fortune.

But what did you mean by saying this to me?

"Imperial Father, Luo Li isn't even six yet. Isn't this a little too early?"

Seeing the Azure Emperor stare at him with bright eyes, Lu Chen sighed inwardly and spoke helplessly.

"What a coincidence. You're only six as well, my son. The two of you are childhood sweethearts, so setting a betrothal now would be a match made in heaven!"

"..."

After the Azure Emperor finished speaking, Lu Chen felt terrible all over again.

He had only wanted to complete a Reversal Mission. How had he somehow gotten himself dragged into this?

"Imperial Father, I think I'm still too young. There's really no rush with this matter..."

"My son, you don't want to make me sad, do you?"

The Azure Emperor let out a long sigh at those words, his face displaying an utterly dejected expression.

"Alas, my adorable Little Eleventh said he would fulfill one of my requests and share my worries. After pondering for so long, I finally told him about this matter that I've kept buried in my heart. How pitiful. Little Eleventh refuses, but what else can I, his father, do? I can't force him, can I?"

"????"

Seeing the Azure Emperor's face, filled with regret, helplessness, and overwhelming heartache, Lu Chen's eyes widened. He felt terrible all over.

Imperial Father, you were actually this kind of Imperial Father!

The Azure Emperor was a supreme being who had suppressed countless nations, sects, and experts throughout the Eastern Cang Region—and now he was putting on an act in front of a child?

Wasn't this pure emotional blackmail?

At that moment, the Azure Emperor's image in Lu Chen's heart shattered into pieces.

Looking at the Azure Emperor's regretful, grief-stricken face,

Lu Chen hesitated for a long time. For the sake of the Heaven Tier Top-Grade Supreme Treasure, he finally gritted his teeth.

"Imperial Father, I agree!"

"Hahahaha, Little Eleventh, I knew you were the most filial! Since you agree, I'll notify everyone at once. In three days, I'll hold a grand banquet and settle the engagement between my Little Eleventh and the girl from the Luo Family!"

When the Azure Emperor heard this, the regret on his face instantly transformed into delight. The change was astonishingly swift. He clapped his hands and spoke.

But when Lu Chen heard that, his face twisted into a grimace.

Three days?

This was way too fast!

Congratulations! You have fulfilled a wish of the gravely dying Azure Emperor, completed the Reversal Mission, and received the Heaven Tier Top-Grade Supreme Treasure: Sky-Shaking Wandering Dragon Sword!

Warm reminder: You only need a thought to summon the Sky-Shaking Wandering Dragon Sword out of thin air!

At that moment, another transparent panel appeared before Lu Chen's eyes, its words emerging one after another.

Seeing this, Lu Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally completed the mission.

However, just then, Lu Chen discovered that more words had appeared on the transparent panel before him.

You now possess the Land Immortal Realm, but this is merely a starting point, not the end. Your childhood playmate, Zhang Yanxin, the son of Marquis Anjiang, has also reached the Land Immortal Realm!

Reversal Mission issued: Defeat Zhang Yanxin. Mission reward: Top-Tier Assassination Organization: Underworld!

Hm?

This Reversal Mission had come so quickly?

Lu Chen looked at the words on the transparent panel, an astonished expression appearing on his face.

But after coming back to his senses, an image surfaced in Lu Chen's mind: a chubby little brat with a pale, pudgy face.

Zhang Yanxin, the only son of Marquis Anjiang, Zhang Cheng!

That fellow was especially hilarious. Sometimes, Zhang Yanxin would follow Marquis Anjiang to the imperial palace and meet Lu Chen. They could not be said to have played together particularly well, but whenever they met, they were still a couple of little brats who caught chickens and fished.

Who would have thought that this chubby boy would one day reach the Land Immortal Realm?

But defeating the current Zhang Yanxin...

Lu Chen was confident that, with his current strength, he could blow Zhang Yanxin flat with a single breath.

This Reversal Mission was laughably easy. Now that he could also enter and leave the imperial palace freely, he could leave the palace later, go to Anjiang Marquis Manor to find that fatty, and figure out a way to beat him up. Wouldn't that complete the mission?

Only...

This mission's reward...

A top-tier assassination organization, the Underworld!

I'm just a little prince. What would I need an assassination organization for?
