Hearing that she was the princess of the Tianlong Empire, the scholar had a playful smile on his face.
The master of the dark hall was also slightly startled, and then smiled and said: "I was just about to look for her, but unexpectedly, she came to the door."
The scholar shook the paper fan in his hand, stopped slightly, and said: "Palace Master, please step aside for a moment. I want to see what the princess of the Tianlong Empire wants to do with me."
"good."
The palace master nodded slightly, stood up, and walked toward the back of the hall.
The scholar then said: "Please come in."
"yes."
The guard nodded and left quickly.
At the entrance of the city lord’s mansion,
Jiang Chen and Tian Ling'er waited for a while, and the guards who went in to report came out.
"Princess, please."
Under the leadership of the guards, Jiang Chen and Tian Linger entered the city lord's mansion.
After passing through a passage, we entered the main hall.
In the main hall, there was a man sitting. He looked very young and thin, and seemed to be a little malnourished.
"Sir, bring it here."
"I know, let's go down." The scholar gave up slightly.
The guard turned and left.
Tian Ling'er looked at the sitting scholar with respect and said, "Tian Ling'er from the Tianlong Empire has met the scholar."
The scholar gave up slightly and said, "Sit down."
Tian Ling'er sat down aside.
Jiang Chen sat next to her, but he didn't say a word.
The scholar looked at Tian Ling'er and said, "Back then, I had a few connections with the ancestor of the Tianlong Empire. Unexpectedly, he took the first step. Time really doesn't forgive anyone."
The scholar sighed.
"grown ups."
Tian Ling'er burst into tears and said: "My Tian family in the Tianlong Empire has been destroyed. Tianlong City has been massacred. All my people have been captured by the Dark Palace. Now I don't know where they are. Your Excellency is well-informed and spiritual. I came here today because I want to inquire about some things about the Dark Palace."
Hearing this, the scholar's expression became solemn.
"I've heard about this too, but I didn't expect Andian to be so frantic and massacre the city."
As he said that, he looked at Tian Ling'er and asked: "Ling'er, now there is news from the outside world that the Tian family has an invincible treasure in their hands, which attracted the attention of the An Palace. There are also rumors that the treasure is in your hands. What on earth is this? What kind of treasure is it? If you want me to see it, I'd better take the treasure and exchange it for someone else. The people in the Dark Palace are all ruthless."
"Yes, it's my family's jade pendant, and it's not a treasure. I don't know who passed it down that my family's jade pendant is a treasure."
Tian Linger said.
"Can you show me?" Xiucai looked at Tian Ling'er and asked her wishes.
"this?"
Tian Ling'er became embarrassed.
The scholar smiled and said: "Why, are you still afraid that I will miss your treasure?"
"no."
Tian Ling'er immediately shook her head. She came to ask for help from the scholar, and she didn't dare to offend the scholar, so she immediately took out the jade pendant.
Just hand it to the scholar.
"Wait a minute."
Jiang Chen spoke in time and snatched the jade pendant.
"Brother Jiang, you..."
Ling'er looked at Jiang Chen with a puzzled expression.
Jiang Chen took the jade pendant, glanced at the scholar, and said calmly: "I came to you because I just wanted to know some things about the Dark Palace and where the headquarters of the Dark Palace is. As for rescuing people, I don't need you to worry about it. ”
The scholar then glanced at Jiang Chen.
He thought Jiang Chen was just a subordinate around Tian Ling'er.
Now it seems that it is far from that simple.
He was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He looked at Jiang Chen with a smile: "Young man, do you know what you are talking about? Do you know what kind of organization the Dark Hall is? Even I am not sure that I can escape from the Dark Hall. Rescue people with your hands, do you think you have the strength?"
"You don't need to worry too much about this."
Jiang Chen had a calm expression on his face.
He didn't understand scholars, but Tian Ling'er said that scholars were accepted by everyone. As long as they came from the city of freedom, even if they committed serious crimes, scholars should protect them.
Such a person will definitely not be a good person.
"Haha." Xiucai smiled faintly and said, "I heard that the deputy master of the Dark Hall was killed while chasing Ling'er. Young man, does this have something to do with you?"
Jiang Chen glanced at him and said calmly: "I didn't expect that you are really well informed."
He did not deny it and said: "Yes, I killed the deputy master of the Dark Palace, Hun Sheng."
The scholar just asked casually. After receiving Jiang Chen's affirmation, he was also surprised. He couldn't help but look at Jiang Chen one more time, and he was very confused.
Hun Sheng had entered the Saint Realm. Even if he wanted to kill him, it would be very difficult, but he did not expect that Hun Sheng would die in the hands of this kid in front of him.
Could it be that he is really that strong?
The scholar wanted to see through Jiang Chen's strength.
However, all of Jiang Chen's true energy was hidden in the small sea of energy within the acupuncture points in his body, without any leakage. Even a scholar could not see through Jiang Chen's true strength.
After being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said: "Heroes really come from young. I didn't expect that I haven't walked around the mainland for a while, and such a terrifying strong man appeared on the mainland. Come, let's serve tea."
Soon, a maid came over with tea.
Tian Ling'er picked up the tea, took a sip, and said, "Sir Xiucai, please tell us something about the Dark Palace."
"Not in a hurry."
The scholar had a smile on his face.
He watched Jiang Chen drink the tea.
As soon as he drank it, Jiang Chen realized something was wrong. There was a strong poison in the tea.
However, this poison is of no use to him, because his body was reshaped by the magic lotus and is immune to any poison.
"ah."
At this moment, Tian Ling'er let out a scream, and then fell to the ground.
Jiang Chen also fell to the ground.
Pointing at the scholar: "You, you poisoned the tea."
"Ha ha."
The scholar burst out laughing; "You didn't expect that, did you?"
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came.
Immediately afterwards, an old man came out.
He is the master of the dark palace.
"Boy, you were the one who killed the deputy master of my palace. I want you to pay for it."
The palace master came over with a downcast expression, glaring coldly at Jiang Chen, his expression filled with murderous intent.
"Sir, you..."
Tian Linger was completely dumbfounded.
At this moment, her face was filled with pain, the poison in her body had already taken effect, and she couldn't raise any energy in her body.
She almost fainted from the pain.
However, at this moment, Jiang Chen slowly stood up from the ground. He waved his hand casually, and powerful infuriating energy appeared in his palm. This infuriating energy sucked out all the poison in Ling'er's body.
Ling'er felt a lot better now, got up from the ground with difficulty, walked quickly towards Jiang Chen, and stood behind Jiang Chen.
The scholar looked at Jiang Chen, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Good boy, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect that the poison I carefully prepared could not poison you."
Jiang Chen smiled faintly.
"I didn't expect that you would actually hook up with Andian. I was going to find the master of Andian. Since they are all here, it saves me having to make another trip."
Jiang Chen looked careless.
The master of the dark hall sneered: "You bastard, you dare to speak harshly even when you are about to die."
