Chapter 280

While this pair of brothers was having lofty aspirations, Li Yang was also not idle.

He was now being heavily hunted by the Ministry of Justice and was hiding here and there.

But this guy's lick-dog nature was acting up; in order to help the princess of the former dynasty's remnants, he even planned to drag his own sister into the water.

Some time ago, Li Yang sent people to the imperial capital to find his sister, Li Ling.

Little did he know, his goddess was going to Shanghe City to seduce another man to do things.

Wei Manying could be said to be a proper sea queen, with a bunch of men around her, and they were all men with some ability.

She managed her time very well, and these men didn't know they were one of the spare tires.

Imperial capital city, inside the Prince of Jing'an's mansion.

Li Ling looked at the Son of Luck, Chen Xuannan, and said seriously: "I heard that the eastern coastal region is already a paradise for cultivators; resources are abundant there, and there are no battles that need to be handled recently; should we go and take a look?"

She said this, actually because she received an invitation from Li Yang; Li Yang was hiding in that area.

Li Ling knew that doing this was very dangerous, and her father had also warned her not to contact Li Yang.

But Li Yang had already revealed some fierce news, making her have to investigate.

"Are you talking about the Sea Clan? I've also heard about it recently; it is indeed possible to go and take a look."

Chen Xuannan was a Sage Realm powerhouse in his previous life, an expert at the ascension level, and one of the top existences on the continent.

He naturally had been to the Sea Clan, and even had friendships with some of the Sea Clan's guys.

It's just that time has passed, and the era has changed; don't know if those guys ascended or fell.

Chen Xuannan had always intended to cultivate quietly, but if Li Ling wanted to go, it wasn't impossible.

Coupled with the fact that the rail train had been built now, it didn't take too long to get from the imperial capital to the eastern May Tian Ce Dynasty.

Since they had this plan, Chen Xuannan and Li Ling bought tickets and took the rail train to Qingqiucheng.

Along the way, Chen Xuannan looked at the scenery flying past outside the window and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Even if he was dissatisfied with Li Chen, he had to admire the great talent and bold vision of this Emperor.

The construction of rail trains not only changed the transportation pattern of the May Tian Ce Dynasty but also promoted the economic and cultural development of the entire dynasty.

This kind of cross-era project, even for him, a former Sage Realm powerhouse, had to be admired.

After the train arrived in Qingqiucheng, the two got off the train.

Although Qingqiucheng was prosperous, it was still some distance from the coastal area.

In order to reach the destination as soon as possible, Chen Xuannan and Li Ling decided to ride horses to Chaoyin City.

Along the way, Li Ling appeared a bit absent-minded; although Chen Xuannan noticed her abnormality, he didn't ask much.

He thought Li Ling was just having difficulty with her recent cultivation, so she came to the coastal area to take a look.

Just when the two were riding horses to the halfway point, several masked men suddenly rushed out of the woods in front and blocked their way.

Chen Xuannan immediately became alert and quickly blocked in front of Li Ling, scanning these uninvited guests with cold eyes.

Just as he was about to scold these people, the masked man in the lead slowly took off his mask.

"Li Yang?" Chen Xuannan frowned, a trace of surprise and vigilance flashing in his eyes.

He didn't expect that this imperial court wanted criminal who harmed the Crown Prince would appear here.

Their conflict was already very big before, and now seeing each other, neither was very happy.

To be honest, if it weren't for the guards by Li Yang's side, Chen Xuannan would have caught him to claim the reward.

Their conflict was just that straightforward.

Seeing Li Yang, Li Ling didn't have much surprise, but appeared a bit complicated instead.

Seeing Li Ling's expression, Chen Xuannan suddenly realized that Li Ling coming to the eastern coastal region was not for cultivation or farming resources at all, but to see Li Yang.

Being deceived, he was definitely unhappy, but more of it was doubt.

Although Li Ling and Li Yang were siblings, as far as he knew, their relationship wasn't that good.

Could it be that Li Yang had caught some handle on Li Ling, forcing her to come and meet?

Thinking of this, the killing intent in Chen Xuannan's heart toward Li Yang instantly rose.

In fact, the method Li Yang used to trick his sister Li Ling over was very simple.

He was Li Ling's own brother and knew what Li Ling's wish was.

For these years, whenever Li Ling encountered danger, there would be a mysterious person who did good deeds without leaving a name; she had a very high favorability for this mysterious person and had always wanted to know the mysterious person's identity, but had never been able to know.

She had told her brother about this kind of thing; in fact, Li Yang didn't know who the mysterious person was, but he told Li Ling that if she wanted to know the mysterious person's identity, she should come to the eastern coastal region to find him.

This tricked Li Ling over.

What was even more outrageous was that this so-called mysterious person was Chen Xuannan; he was very low-key, didn't say anything, and secretly enjoyed other people's praise.

Looking at Li Yang, Li Ling asked seriously: "Brother, where is he?"

If it weren't to know the mysterious person's identity, Li Ling would be too lazy to come over.

Li Yang waved his hand, his tone relaxed: "Don't rush, I have other things to discuss with you; after the matter is handled, I will naturally tell you."

Li Ling frowned, obviously not satisfied with Li Yang's answer, but she didn't say much; she had already guessed this ending when she came.

But Li Yang being so empty-handed, it was hard for her to believe.

However, the mysterious person was too mysterious, and Li Yang really made up some intelligence, and Li Ling actually believed it.

Coincidentally, Chen Xuannan didn't know that the mysterious person Li Yang made up was himself.

Li Yang took the two to a hidden small courtyard in the woods.

The courtyard was simply arranged, but it was clearly his temporary hiding place.

After sitting down, Li Yang said directly to Li Ling: "Sister, I need you to help me get something from the palace."

Li Ling was stunned for a moment, and then asked vigilantly: "What thing?"

Li Yang smiled, his tone carrying a trace of mystery: "A key that can awaken the Dragon Emperor."

"Dragon Emperor? Could it be him?" Li Ling widened her eyes, obviously not unfamiliar with this name.

"That's right, it's the one you're thinking of." Li Yang knew that this kind of thing couldn't be hidden, so he simply told his plan directly.

Hearing this, Li Ling's face turned a bit pale; she felt that her brother was crazy.

Once the Dragon Emperor wakes up, the entire continent will fall into chaos!

Just when Li Ling was preparing to refuse, Chen Xuannan beside her changed his usual state and said: "It makes sense; if the Dragon Emperor can be resurrected, not only will the Prince of Jing'an be innocent, but the entire Prince's mansion will also improve; I've had enough of that gloomy place."

This sentence made Li Yang feel novel; he thought Chen Xuannan would refuse on the spot, who knew he would agree so readily.

Now, everyone's eyes were on Li Ling; Li Ling sighed and had to express her agreement.

Li Yang was overjoyed; he didn't expect his sister to agree so quickly; he had prepared a lot of rhetoric, but didn't use it.

Today he was in a good mood and held a grand banquet to entertain the two.

When returning to their residence after eating, Li Ling asked suspiciously: "Why did you agree to him?"

Chen Xuannan rolled his eyes at her and whispered: "Are you stupid? If we don't agree, will he let us leave?"
