Proud Sword Emperor

Chapter 124
Bai Lingxi watched the people who came to the door walk away completely, then closed the door, and still said uneasy: "These gifts are left behind, what if they really have ghosts in their hearts?"

"Just keep all the presents, and you can accept all the gifts from anyone in the future. It can be used as a foundation for you to embark on martial arts in the future. As for whether they have ghosts or ghosts in their hearts, it doesn't matter. You don't have to think too much about it for me." many."

Xu Chen smiled kindly, then stood up: "Where is Ling Hanxue, I'll go talk to him about something."

"Here, I'll take you there."

Bai Lingxi turned around, but before she could move, she heard a knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

The voice is cautious.

"Is Mr. Xu there?"

A voice and several chaotic footsteps came.

"Open the door." Xu Chen sat down again.

Bai Lingxi opened the door obediently, and saw a few princes in yellow clothes standing outside the door, all with a somewhat reserved expression.

Xu Chen cast his eyes and smiled calmly: "Why are the princes here?"

"I met Mr. Xu."

A group of princes saluted one after another, without any arrogance like when facing other people.

Especially one of the familiar figures, the Eighth Prince Tang Zhe, was evasive at the moment, not daring to raise his head to look at the ground.

"This palace is the home of several princes. I am just a guest. You are too polite. Tell me what you want."

Xu Chen's expression became a little calmer.

The princes felt that Xu Chen was not as scary as imagined and rumored, and their expressions calmed down a bit, "Father asked us to receive the Taoist Master who just arrived, does Mr. Xu know where they are?"

"They have already left." Xu Chen said and stood up: "They came to the palace to look for me, and they disturbed the emperor. Please tell me, I will go here to make an apology in a few days."

"Okay, no, no, no..." The princes nodded and shook their heads again, not daring to answer for a while.

"Then I have nothing else to do, I'll go out first, I still have something to take care of." Xu Chen pointed to the door with a peaceful smile.

"Okay, Mr. Xu, you go slowly." The princes quickly moved out of the way, and their expressions eased a little.

"Lingxi, let's go." Xu Chen stepped out.

Among the several princes, the eighth prince blushed suddenly and said: "Mr. Xu, I, apologize for what I did before. I shouldn't have listened to Ma Rong's slander before, and I shouldn't have spoken disrespect to you."

Xu Chen turned his head, pondered for a while, and then showed a bright smile on his face: "If you don't tell me, I've already forgotten it, so I won't mention the past, let's drink together another day."

"Thank you, thank you Young Master Xu!"

The eighth prince let out a long sigh of relief.

Then when they saw Xu Chen walking away, they all looked at each other in blank dismay, and said with emotion: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Xu, who is so powerful in the rumors, is so polite in real life."

"Yes, his words and deeds make me feel respected. This is the demeanor that a real strong person should have. Compared with Mr. Xu, those Taoist strongmen are far behind."

"Eighth Brother, what did you do to offend Mr. Xu? Although Mr. Xu doesn't mind, we can't just leave this matter alone. You should discuss with us and see how to deal with it properly."

Several princes left after a while of discussion.

Xu Chen, who had already walked away, showed a slight smile: "There are not many of these princes who are really evil, but it is necessary to leave some backup hands here as a foundation for the Tang Dynasty."

"What foundation?" Bai Lingxi asked with a confused face when he heard Xu Chen talking to himself.

Xu Chen rubbed her hair: "Don't ask so much, just lead the way."

"Oh……"

……

Ling Hanxue's room.

Xu Chen knocked on the door and went in. Ling Hanxue had already prepared drinks, the injuries on his body were no longer visible, and he had returned to his handsome appearance in white clothes and white hair.

"You're finally here. The wine has already been prepared." Ling Hanxue pointed at the table casually, then sat on a chair beside her and said, "Let's fulfill our promise of drinking [-] cups first."

Xu Chen sat down and pondered for a while, then said with a slightly serious expression: "Maybe we have to wait a while, let me get to the point, there is bad news this time."

"Hmm..." Ling Hanxue's hand that lifted the wine lid stiffened for a moment: "Can't you continue your life?"

"It's not so absolute, it's temporarily impossible." Xu Chen looked a little more serious, and looked directly at Ling Hanxue.

"Although it's regrettable, thank you for your honesty." A trace of disappointment flashed in Ling Hanxue's eyes, and she smiled again in a flash: "I need to drink even more now, and I have to enjoy myself to the fullest in life. Come, drink."

Xu Chen blocked his drink, shook his head and said, "You don't have to be too disappointed, things are not so absolute, I need Tianjingshui, as long as I find Tianjingshui, all problems can be solved."

"Tianjingshui?" Ling Hanxue put down the wine cup, and said with a wry smile: "It is rumored that this thing is only found in the sky, at least I have to go to the fairyland to find it. I only have eight months to live, and the fairyland won't wait for me."

"Maybe it will exist in the projection of Lingshan." Xu Chen sighed as he spoke, the fact that this kind of gambling on probability could hardly comfort Ling Hanxue.

Ling Hanxue raised her glass again and said with a smile: "Yes, maybe there will be, come, have a drink."

"I'm not drinking today."

Xu Chen frowned and stood up, then looked at Ling Hanxue with serious eyes and said: "Don't worry, I will do my best to do what I promised, if there is no Tianjingshui in the projection of Lingshan, then... before you die, I will take you Go to the fairyland!"

Ling Hanxue's expression was slightly dumb: "Go to the fairy world? How?"

"Go against the sky."

After Xu Chen finished speaking, he looked at Bai Lingxi and said, "Let's go."

He turned away.

In the room, Ling Hanxue's pupils were condensed, she fixedly looked at the back of Xu Chen leaving, and laughed out loud for a while: "I really did not misunderstand the person, this guy really takes my promise seriously."

Against the heavens and the fairy world within eight months?Leaving other things aside, how could it be so easy to just say the word against the sky?What kind of courage is it to be against the sky for a person you don't know very well?
"It's a pity that the wine is gone today. He doesn't want to drink with me. He is afraid that I will die after drinking it. I remember a word he said..."

Ling Hanxue raised the wine glass alone, swung it up to the sky, and drank it with a smile: "The three hundred glasses of wine have not been exhausted, and no one in the world will take my life. It seems that I will drink slowly the three hundred glasses of wine that I ordered with him. Ah, drink him for at least 3 years!"

……

On the gazebo at the South Lake of the Imperial Palace, Xu Chen stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the lake, without saying a word for a long time.

Bai Lingxi stood beside him, hesitating to speak: "Young master, if there is no sky-clean water projected on the Lingshan Mountain, you will really go against the heavens for him."

"Of course it's true." Xu Chen nodded, looking up at the sky with thoughtful eyes.

"That's against the sky, will it be dangerous? Why don't you forget it..." Bai Lingxi said three times, and there was worry in his eyes.

"You want your young master to be an untrustworthy person?" Xu Chen looked down at Bai Lingxi, then rubbed her head: "Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure about."
