In the inner palace of the East Palace
Lin Chen held Qian Renxue's slender waist tightly, while his other large hand pressed against the back of her golden hair, greedily inhaling her fragrance.
At first, Qian Renxue was a little resistant, but as time went by, her cool and pretty face became more and more flushed, and her snow-white arms couldn't help but wrap around his neck.
After an incense stick burns...
The two of them had already involuntarily fallen onto the golden couch. Qian Renxue turned her head to the side, slightly out of breath, and asked, " Lin Chen, what exactly do you take me for?"
Lin Chen paused slightly, turned her pretty face towards him, pressed his forehead against hers, and stared intently. "My woman..."
Qian Renxue's heart trembled violently. At this moment, she no longer thought about the Heaven Dou Emperor's throne, no longer thought about vying for the Martial Soul Pope, no longer thought about how to take revenge. Her mind was filled with nothing but the words "my woman"...
Her subordinates respected her, but her grandfather had only charted a path for her to become a powerful figure. It seemed that she only received special affection from Lin Chen, the kind of 'unconditional pampering' that elders show to younger generations.
Qian Renxue held him with one arm and stroked his cheek with the other, her pale golden eyes glistening with tears.
At this moment, she was no longer Your Highness Xue the Spirit Hall, nor the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, but simply a little woman in Lin Chen's arms.
Lin Chen leaned against the headboard, lovingly caressing the aloof and beautiful Xiao Tian in his arms. At this moment, Qian Renxue's long golden hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her exquisite face was flushed...
Qian Renxue weakly pinched his waist with her jade-like hand. "Shut up, don't say anything!"
Lin Chen said helplessly, "Grandma, it's already late afternoon. If we don't release them soon, Tang Chen will storm into the inner palace."
Qian Renxue's delicate body trembled slightly before she slowly stood up.
Xue Qinghe and Lin Chen walked towards the prison one after the other, but for some reason, the former seemed somewhat sullen.
" Xue'er, why aren't you saying anything?"
" Xue'er, can you please talk to me?"
" Xue'er, did your father do something to upset you?"
Xue Qinghe stopped abruptly, and even her disguised face revealed a hint of embarrassment and grievance.
Lin Chen was slightly taken aback. "???"
"Are you really angry? You were fine just now?"
"Hmph!" Qian Renxue a haughty snort and strode ahead.
She had been infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire for nearly twenty years. Although she aimed for the Heaven Dou Emperor's throne, she also harbored a deep aversion to this place. If it weren't for her goal, who would be willing to change their identity and live here for so many years...?
Now that things have temporarily calmed down in the Heaven Dou Empire, Lin Chen certainly won't be staying here for long. Just now, she only wanted to spend more time with him, but Lin Chen, oblivious to her feelings, made her get up and do his work.
So, she felt wronged and angry!
It wasn't because she was willful, but because she loved Lin Chen so much that she not only regarded him as her man, but also as an elder she could rely on.
For a Xiao Tian who lacked parental love since childhood, now that she finally has a man to rely on, you don't understand her at all. I'm angry, and I can't be appeased...
After a short while, in the prison
Yu Xiaogang slumped in a cell, his hands and feet cuffed with iron chains. Opposite him was Tang San, whose hands, feet, and neck were also cuffed.
"Are you alright, Xiao San?"
In the dimly lit cell, Tang San's face was somewhat gloomy. After hearing his words, he shook his head expressionlessly.
Yu Xiaogang quickly asked, " Xiao San, will your father and great-grandfather come to rescue us?"
Tang San said impatiently, "How should I know?"
Yang Wudi and Yu Yuanheng, who were standing nearby, also stuck their heads out to eavesdrop, especially the latter, who had come for the benefit of his family and never expected to die like this.
Yu Yuanheng quickly said, " Xiao San, you're the one who invited our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan this time. If His Excellency Haotian comes to rescue us, you must put in a good word for us."
Tang San was quite annoyed at this moment and could only reply repeatedly. He had heard his father's voice in the afternoon, but he hadn't come yet. Without a doubt, he had been stopped by the Spirit Hall again.
Tang Hao, Tang Hao, weren't you supposed to be pretty amazing? Back when you first became Titled Douluo, you were able to severely injure the Pope of the Spirit Hall. What happened to you today?
Thump thump... thump thump...
Just then, several groups of silver-armored guards arrived and took Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and the others away.
"What are you trying to do?! Let me go! You can't kill me!" Yu Xiaogang thought the Spirit Hall was going to kill him and began to struggle violently.
"My disciple is Tang San, his father is Clear Sky Douluo, and his great-grandfather is Peerless Douluo. If you dare to touch me, they will definitely avenge me!"
Beside him, Yu Yuanheng also began to struggle and wail, while only Flender and Yang Wudi remained relatively quiet.
Snap!
One of the guards slapped Yu Xiaogang and yelled, "What are you shouting for? Shut up!"
In the innermost cell
Tang San stared in fear at the departing figures, his heart pounding with anxiety: Was the Spirit Hall really going to deal with us? Why were they the only ones taken out, while I was left in the cell? What did that mean?
Prison lobby
Xue Qinghe and Lin Chen stood in the main hall, with a golden-armored guard standing on each side of the entrance. Soon after, Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and the others came out.
Yu Xiaogang hurriedly asked, "What... what do you want to do?!"
Xue Qinghe coldly said, "What are we doing?! Of course, we're sending you to be buried with my father, the Emperor!"
"Take away!"
In front of a group of Heaven Dou royal guards, Xue Qinghe had to try his best to maintain his image as the crown prince. Over time, he had long since become accustomed to this kind of life.
This is why she craved Lin Chen's gentle embrace.
"No!!" Yu Xiaogang roared, "I didn't kill Xue Ye! You're framing me! What right do you have to kill me?!"
Snap!
He had barely uttered a word when a guard slapped him hard across the face.
"Uh cough..." Yu Xiaogang's face swelled up instantly, and he even spat out two large teeth and blood, clearly indicating that the guard had not held back.
"Wait a minute~" Lin Chen suddenly said.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone around him turned to look at the stranger. Whether they were guards from the Spirit Hall or guards from the Heaven Dou Royal Family, they were all extremely curious about him.
Who is this person?
How dare you disobey His Highness the Crown Prince's orders? You're asking for trouble!
Xue Qinghe waved her hand to stop them, then said calmly, "Mr. Lin, what are your instructions?"
Mr. Lin? Could this person also be a master invited by His Highness the Crown Prince?
Lin Chen smiled faintly and slowly walked up to Yu Xiaogang: " Grandmaster, do you still remember me?"
Yu Xiaogang shook his bewildered head, scrutinized him carefully, and then his expression changed drastically. "It's... it's you! You're better than..."
