Chapter 385: It looks like a multiple-choice question, but it's actually a mandatory one

~8 min read 1,579 words

In an instant, the entire banquet hall was shrouded in brilliant divine light.

Li Chen was surrounded by flowing light, the Dao immortal radiance bloomed, and nine divine rings descended from the sky, like nine scorching suns circling his body.

Flowers fell from the sky, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and the terrifying pressure of the Sage Realm swept across the entire venue!

Boom!

Qin Hong was struck as if by lightning, directly sent flying more than ten meters away, crashing through a hall pillar before barely stopping, a mouthful of fresh blood spraying out.

The guards holding weapons around were even worse; those close by were directly sent flying, breaking doors and windows, while those further away were forced to their knees by the pressure, the sound of shattering kneecaps echoing endlessly.

Li Chen stood with his hands behind his back, watching Qin Hong, who was like a dead dog, coldly: "I asked you a question. Didn't you hear me?"

Both Luo Jiazi was so shocked she couldn't speak, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

She finally understood why this young man was so fearless; it turned out he was a peerless expert of the Sage Realm!

The shock in Luo Xi's heart was no less than her mother's. No wonder her aunt said her uncle-in-law was invincible in the world; it turned out he was in the Sage Realm.

She didn't know if her father, whom she had never met, would have the same powerful strength as her uncle-in-law.

She also began to look at Li Chen with longing.

Li Chen only hid his identity, which didn't mean he needed to hide his strength.

I've already reached the max level to refresh the novice village dungeon; isn't it just playing however I want?

Just now, the Luo sisters and you talked nicely, considering it giving you a way out, but you didn't listen to advice. Now I'm not acting anymore; let's see how you get off the stage.

At this moment, no one was more afraid than Qin Hong; he felt that the other party just released his aura, and the bones in his body were about to be shattered.

It was as if hundreds of giant hands were pressing him firmly to the ground, unable to move.

Who could have imagined that an "inconspicuous" young man was actually in the Sage Realm.

Qin Hong had a certain amount of strength and prestige in this area, which was why he could host the Hong Sect Genius Grand Competition, but he was too weak in front of Li Chen.

Li Chen could kill him with a wave of his hand; this wasn't a joke.

Facing Li Chen's interrogation, Qin Hong wanted to quibble, but the next second, his eyes blurred, and he fainted.

Li Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and he said: "Sorry, I didn't know he was so weak; I opened the aura a bit too much. But this guy is at least in the Heavenly Abyss Realm; why is he so weak?"

It was fortunate that Qin Hong didn't hear this sentence, otherwise, he would definitely have been angered awake.

I'm weak, so it's my fault?

What level are you in the Sage Realm? Don't you have any idea in your heart!

The entire murderous villa became abnormally quiet under Li Chen's deterrence.

Since ancient times, Hong Sect banquets have been risky, but this time Qin Hong's risk was the greatest; who knew the guest's realm was so high.

"Eldest sister, what should we do now?"

Seeing Qin Hong lying on the ground unable to get up, Both Luo Jiazi's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

She had fantasized a thousand times about the plot of being saved, but most of them were fighting to escape and then avoiding the pursuit of the Hong Sect Villa, but she never thought it would be in such an upright way.

"Husband leaving him alive should be to find the antidote for you."

Luo Qimeng had followed Li Chen for a long time and understood Li Chen's thoughts. Moreover, she was also someone who grew up in this area and knew some special drugs; if the poisoner didn't configure the antidote themselves, it was basically unsolvable.

Hearing this address, Both Luo Jiazi was a little surprised, but didn't say anything.

Not long after, a basin of cold water splashed Qin Hong awake.

Luo Qimeng asked for the antidote formula; if Qin Hong told the truth, she would give him a way to live.

Hearing this, Qin Hong's stubborn temper flared up. He knew the consequences of offending a Sage Realm expert, so he simply didn't say anything, swearing to make Both Luo Jiazi be buried with him!

He even indicated that his life was saved by Both Luo Jiazi, and he was satisfied to die with Both Luo Jiazi.

With this attitude toward his savior, he was truly one of a kind.

The next second, a crisp snap of fingers appeared, and Qin Hong fainted again.

Both Luo Jiazi sighed, her eyes full of despair: "Sister, you don't need to worry about me anymore. Just take good care of Xi'er."

She also didn't expect Qin Hong to be so ruthless, not letting her go even in death.

Luo Qimeng couldn't bear it, so she looked at Li Chen with anticipation, asking if Li Chen had any other ways.

Li Chen naturally had ways, and there were many ways.

The first way: Li Chen himself was in the Sage Realm, and people at this level already had high resistance to toxins. He only needed to eat the poison and then analyze the toxicity, and he could slowly find a way to detoxify.

The second way: Li Chen had cultivated the "Imperial Dragon Sacred Scripture," and this cultivation technique was the nemesis of various negative states. Both Luo Jiazi only needed to dual cultivate with Li Chen, and she could slowly clear the toxins.

If once wasn't enough, then a hundred times; if a hundred times wasn't enough, then a thousand times; it would definitely work.

This looked like a multiple-choice question, letting Both Luo Jiazi choose.

But Li Chen felt that this should be a mandatory question.

Because he only mentioned the second way, not the first.

If there are benefits, why not take them?

Qin Hong probably never dreamed that he poisoned Both Luo Jiazi, and the one who benefited was Li Chen.

He had waited bitterly for so many years and never encountered it, and now it might be given away for free.

If it weren't for his help, Li Chen wouldn't have found a good excuse.

Hearing this method, Both Luo Jiazi blushed a little at first; this was said in front of her daughter.

Moreover, she had kept herself pure until now, and she was just giving it away like this?

Just when she was hesitating, her two sisters started to fan the flames.

Luo Qimeng: "Sister, Xi'er is still so young, and her father hasn't been by her side since she was little; you wouldn't want her to be without a mother, would you?"

Luo Zixi: "Think about it, such a young and handsome Sage Realm expert is detoxifying you; you've taken a big advantage, and many little girls beg for it without a chance."

Hearing this, Both Luo Jiazi felt that if she hesitated any longer, she would be ungrateful.

"Then I'll trouble brother-in-law." Both Luo Jiazi bowed gracefully, her voice trembling.

Li Chen waved his hand, indicating it was a small matter.

Then he turned to Luo Qimeng and said: "The Hong Sect Villa is not small. If you want to revitalize the Luoshui Villa, why not incorporate this place?"

Luo Qimeng's eyes lit up: "Husband is right. I remember Qin Hong has a younger brother, Qin Zhan, who was sent to a branch family because he didn't get along with him. The Qin family is large and has several branches nearby; I can have someone call him over."

This was a question of control.

If Li Chen and Luo Qimeng wanted to personally control the huge power of the Hong Sect Villa, then some loyal people definitely wouldn't be willing, and even if no one fought Li Chen to the death, they would walk away.

But it would be different if Qin Zhan came; he was, after all, a legitimate heir of the Qin family bloodline, and if he came to be the Villa Master in name, he could still convince the public.

It was like others rebelling to become emperor; the civil and military officials and feudal lords everywhere would definitely riot, but if Li Xian and Li Yu rebelled, the riot would be much smaller.

That night, Qin Zhan was urgently summoned.

This second villa master, who had been suppressed by his brother for many years, knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the door: "The villain is willing to work like a dog and horse for the Sage Lord!"

He couldn't wait to count his brother's crimes, from forcing women to colluding with foreign enemies, speaking with spittle flying.

It felt like Qin Hong was a person full of evil, and he and Qin Hong were incompatible!

It was rare to have such an opportunity, with a family headship falling from the sky for him to be, and a Sage Realm expert backing him, how could he not show loyalty?
