Chapter 103: Tried to threaten Li Chen, but got caught with a handle instead!

Li Chen never felt the Sage Realm was anything shameful, so he never hesitated when it was time to show off.

Pretending in front of me? You're still too green!

Li Chen and Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan released their respective auras.

At this time, they already knew each other's approximate level, so they withdrew their auras, and the restaurant returned to its normal appearance.

Only, the people present didn't dare to look at them with that offensive gaze anymore.

Many even left in a hurry after eating, leaving only a few bold ones watching the show.

The owner of the exotic restaurant ran over; his attire didn't look like someone from the May Tian Ce Empire.

"I don't know that two noble guests have arrived; I failed to welcome you, please forgive me."

The owner wore a headscarf, and his beard was very long but groomed very smoothly and cleanly.

Like most people, he only knew these two were very strong, but didn't know exactly how strong.

However, he understood that when people of this level came to the shop, he had to treat them well.

"You go do your work; don't worry about us, we're just eating something," Li Chen responded casually.

The owner was also sensible, knowing he was in the way here, indicated that if the two had any needs, just say so, and then left.

Before leaving, he also instructed the maids to let the kitchen prepare the best ingredients.

Perhaps not at ease, he went to the kitchen himself.

A small interlude passed just like that; this time Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan didn't mean to let Li Chen retreat in the face of difficulties, as she knew she didn't have this ability.

She was just curious; she had long heard that the Imperial Capital was full of experts, but she didn't believe it at first.

Now it seemed that was indeed the case.

But who exactly was such a young expert?

Li Chen's appearance could be said to have overturned her cognition of the secular world to a certain extent, or rather, her contempt.

In the eyes of a woman like her who grew up in a sect, secular dynasties were just ordinary institutions stabilizing the lives of ordinary people, while sects were the high-and-mighty existences.

The secular world had much injustice, and there was suffering in the human world.

Many problems that secular dynasties couldn't solve could only be solved by them.

Only sects could suppress one side of heaven and earth and maintain order.

But the secular world she despised actually had someone with such terrifying strength, so her saying that sects were high-and-mighty became a joke.

But thinking about it, it didn't seem very practical; perhaps the man in front of her was an exception.

Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan was also very curious about how many experts like the man in front of her were hidden in the Imperial Capital.

If possible, she could also recruit this man to deal with the Emperor.

Because her Dao companion, Lord Dingtian, wasn't he going to recruit the Sage Realm expert Master Yu from the Yunlu Academy?

Lord Dingtian had always been a very male-chauvinistic person, and she had always been silently paying in the back.

She actually wanted to prove she had the ability, but Lord Dingtian always felt she couldn't.

For example, the treasure of the extraterrestrial demons; Lord Dingtian felt she couldn't control it. At that time, Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan wanted to touch the treasure, and she still remembered the detail of Lord Dingtian quickly taking it back—she was indeed a bit unconvinced.

If she could recruit this one, she would surely be able to give Lord Dingtian a surprise, right?

Wait, Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan seemed to remember something.

That Sage Realm Emperor was Li Xian's younger brother, which meant the Sage Realm Emperor was very young.

This one was also young, his aura was undoubtedly in the Sage Realm, and his appearance was absolutely a dragon among men; was there a possibility that the Sage Realm Emperor was him?

It couldn't be such a coincidence, right?

She just found a place to eat, and she could run into the Emperor?

Regardless of whether it was, since Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan had already thought of it, she decided to probe.

If this was really the Emperor, then she indeed had to advise her Dao companion to be cautious.

Because in their calculations, the Emperor definitely wasn't Lord Dingtian's opponent; Lord Dingtian just didn't want to ruin his reputation and prepared to use some small means.

Actually, he didn't put the Emperor in his eyes either.

But now it seemed they might have underestimated this Emperor's combat power.

However, this was just an idea of Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan's; whether it was true, she still had to probe.

Asking directly, the person opposite definitely wouldn't answer; who would directly say they were the Emperor? So Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan thought of following him.

As long as she found out the residence of the man in front of her, she would know his identity.

If he was the Emperor, then she would tell Lord Dingtian the news.

If he wasn't, then it wouldn't be too late to recruit him.

After all, recruiting the Emperor to deal with himself—Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan couldn't do such a stupid thing.

After making up her mind, Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan started chatting with Li Chen.

At the start, she told a little lie, saying she came to the Imperial Capital to travel and experience the local customs.

There was a reason for this, because if Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan said she was here for business or to find someone, and the person opposite asked carefully, if she couldn't explain clearly, wouldn't she be exposed?

So she simply said she was traveling, letting the person opposite find no flaws.

Li Chen started to use his flirting secrets, asking what Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan's hobbies were.

Flirting definitely had to start from the other party's hobbies to understand what kind of person she was.

Speaking of hobbies, Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan thought for a while and replied that she liked planting some flowers and plants.

She didn't have any other hobbies; usually in her small courtyard at the Tianyan Divine Sect, she just planted some spirit flowers and fairy herbs.

This indeed hit Li Chen's blind spot of knowledge; he wasn't very familiar with this aspect.

But women who like flowers and plants are mostly patient and yearn for beauty.

Wu Nanzhi at the next table had a headache the more she looked; you two are really chatting, not caring about my feelings at all?

Originally, she planned to watch Li Chen make a fool of himself, who knew Li Chen didn't even act, releasing his aura directly.

As a woman, she understood that the beautiful woman opposite was clearly interested in Li Chen. Forget it, forget it, I'm not his woman, why worry about this?

Wu Nanzhi wasn't the kind of person to make unreasonable trouble; the food here was already finished, so she directly paid the bill and left the restaurant, making space for Li Chen to flirt.

But she had only walked out a few steps when a figure appeared beside her that made her feel surprised—who else could it be but Li Chen.

"Why don't you continue flirting?" Wu Nanzhi said angrily.

"Isn't this what you told me to do?" Li Chen replied seriously.

If anyone else said this, Wu Nanzhi would feel this person was a bit crazy.

But since Li Chen said it, Wu Nanzhi felt it was very normal; after all, this guy had always been crazy!

She didn't know if Li Chen was deliberately angering her or if Li Chen's way of understanding was just like this.

But being able to see Li Chen come out, she was indeed very happy.

Doesn't this show that in Li Chen's eyes, she was still better than that woman?

So what if that woman is beautiful? She looks like she's already a married woman; Li Chen definitely doesn't like her, just playing around.

!

My advantage is very obvious!

Regardless of whether it was, she was very happy thinking this way.

The haze in her heart was swept away.

"You, can you not be so fickle? Won't your wife be angry if she finds out?"

"My wife doesn't manage me; why don't you manage me?"

"Why don't you go die! Next time I run into your wife, I'll tell her what happened today!"

"Okay, sister, remember to say more when the time comes, and tell her about the first time we met; my wife loves to hear it."

Wu Nanzhi's mood, which had just recovered, was messed up again by Li Chen.

It seems Li Chen really can't get over this "sister" joke.

And if the situation of their first meeting was told, the world would think she was a pervert!

Originally wanted to threaten Li Chen, but got caught with a handle by Li Chen instead.

Seeing Wu Nanzhi's teeth gritted, Li Chen felt it was interesting.

As for the woman in the restaurant just now, Li Chen just flirted casually to find some fun.

That kind of smooth-talking mature woman is indeed not easy to deal with.

After strolling for a while, Li Chen asked Wu Nanzhi if she wanted to attend the evening banquet together; Wu Nanzhi politely refused, saying she didn't like going out at night and liked staying at home.

Li Chen didn't force her, and after saying goodbye, he prepared to go to the banquet.

And at this moment, a figure quietly followed.

Following all the way to the Prince of Jing'an's mansion, she stopped only after seeing Li Chen enter with her own eyes.

"Could he be someone from the Prince of Jing'an's mansion?" Lady Youlan Lady Youlan Xianzi Lady Youlan was thinking in her heart.

It seems the foundation of the May Tian Ce Dynasty's royal family is very strong; not only is the Emperor in the Sage Realm, but there is also a Sage Realm expert in the Prince of Jing'an's mansion.

She had to go back first and tell Lord Dingtian about this to avoid problems with the plan later.

Today, the Prince of Jing'an's mansion was also unusually lively, with many guests.

Because there was no morning court, many courtiers had already arrived at noon.

Li Chen didn't arrive late, but when he arrived, others had already arrived.

Besides the courtiers, the most numerous were the royal family members.

Actually, to put it plainly, this was a banquet of the Li family; most were Li Chen's relatives, and Li Chen came in plain clothes, acting very casually.

Just as Li Chen entered the door, he saw a uniform row of familiar faces.

Besides the Prince of Jing'an, Li Longyu, who ran over to welcome him, people like Prime Minister Zhao Wenyuan, Grand General Guo Poyun, and even the newly promoted Minister of Justice, Pang Jin, were there.

A proper configuration of important court officials; Li Longyu's face was fully given.

Li Chen looked at it at a glance and thought they were going to have a meeting.

Then there were various Princes, Princes of the Blood, and Countesses, each of whom was a powerful person in the royal family and also Li Chen's relatives.

Many were slightly older, theoretically Li Chen's elders.

If it were in the past, Li Chen would be very afraid of this kind of gathering, because what he was facing now wasn't the so-called "seven aunts and eight aunts," having to greet them one by one, and if he couldn't call out the other party's title, or called it wrong, it would be very embarrassing.

But now he was the Emperor, so he didn't need to greet these people.

Instead, these elders ran over one after another to greet Li Chen, wanting to become familiar with him.

The Emperor was also a special existence in the royal family.

Today he didn't wear the dragon robe to show his status, but Li Chen was indeed the Emperor, and they didn't dare offend Li Chen.

After these old Princes finished greeting, various Princes and Countesses came again.

Perhaps the greetings were annoying, so Li Chen hooked his finger to let Pang Jin come over, letting him report on work to pass the time.

This way, others saw Li Chen busy with official business and were embarrassed to disturb him.

Pang Jin was stunned; isn't there no morning court today, why am I reporting work alone?

As the Minister of Justice, he had this bit of insight; isn't it just helping the Emperor block trouble? It was his duty as a subject!

Actually, there was nothing to report; important work couldn't be said in this public setting.

The two came to the back garden of the Prince of Jing'an's mansion; not only was the area large, but there was even a small horse farm.

It was said that the Prince of Jing'an's Countess loved horses, so the Prince of Jing'an built this horse farm for her.

At this moment, many young talents of the royal family could be seen racing horses there, and there were also many sounds of cheering and encouragement nearby, as if they were in a competition.

But there was only one person who seemed to be excluded and was being mocked by others.

Li Chen asked curiously: "Who is that person?"

Pang Jin took a look and replied: "Your Majesty, he is the Prince of Jing'an's son-in-law, Chen Xuanan."
