Chapter 10

The next second, Liu Menghuan laughed hysterically. There was a hint of madness in her laughter. "Lin Chen is my brother. I only want his life. Your lives are not worth Lin Chen's life!" "Kill me, or three days later, when Lin Ling'er wakes up, I'll take Lin Chen's life!" The scene became as silent as death. The eyes of the Four Heavenly Kings, the Twelve Earthly Masters, and the 3,000 generals were full of killing intent! Liu Menghuan's attitude was resolute. Perhaps only by killing her could the Dragon God avoid death! However, no one moved at the scene, and the killing intent in everyone's eyes was slowly fading away. The Dragon God had once said that killing Liu Menghuan was the same as putting him into injustice. He would also commit suicide in front of the world! Although his heart was full of unwillingness, he could only accept this fact. Everyone stopped talking and left silently! Liu Menghuan sat paralyzed on the bed as if she had been drained of all her strength. A complicated look flashed across her eyes! "Three days later, I'll take Lin Chen's life, and then I'll die to atone for my crime!" Such a thought flashed through Liu Menghuan's mind, and her eyes became firm again. At the same time, at the Wu Province Airport, a private plane pierced straight into the clouds. The destination... Imperial Capital! Until the private plane disappeared from their sight, no one recovered from the shock. It was already shocking that the Killing Blade was approaching like a bolt of lightning. What was even more shocking was that the chief monk gathered these people together and announced one thing after going to the Talent-hidden Villa! The Dragon Emperor had allowed the Dragon God of the southern border to withdraw from the active mission! The news made everyone's ears buzz. The Dragon God of the southern border was the Oceanic Divine Needle of the southern border. With him around, the border of the southern border would be impregnable. But now, the Dragon Emperor had directly agreed to his retirement! Was it because he had left his post without permission and caused the Dragon Emperor to fly into a rage? Or was it because of something else? No... there must be some other reason! Because there were also the Four Heavenly Kings, the Twelve Earthly Masters, and the 3,000 Combat Generals who came to Wu Province together with Lin Chen! If Lin Chen left his post without permission, wouldn't these people be the same? If Lin Chen was the mastermind, then the Four Heavenly Kings, the Twelve Earthly Venerables, and the Three Thousand War Generals would be offense. Taking another ten thousand steps back, why didn't the Dragon Monarch order all of them to return even if he didn't want to pursue this matter? He was allowed to retire. He only needed to issue an imperial edict. Why would the Chief of the Ministry of War, Killing Blade, personally come to Wu Province and announce it after meeting Lin Chen? Those who could see the Killing Blade were not fools. After analyzing this point, they all secretly reminded themselves that although Lin Chen retired, he did not lose his power! "When I meet this master, I have to serve him respectfully!" On the afternoon of the third day, Liu Menghuan entered the manor and saw Lin Chen rushing out with a heavy face. "Three days have passed. Why hasn't Ling'er woken up yet?" Liu Menghuan frowned and followed Lin Chen to Lin Ling'er's room. She grabbed Lin Ling'er's pulse. Lin Chen's face was as dark as water, but he didn't say a word. After a long while, she finally let go of Lin Ling'er. A hint of seriousness flashed across her eyes. "What the hell is going on!" Lin Chen took a step forward. Faced with a million strong army, the Dragon God was not afraid at all. But at this moment, his voice revealed a sense of panic! "I don't know either. I think he should have woken up today!" Liu Menghuan's brows knitted into a frown. "Is there no other way?" "No..." Liu Menghuan shook her head helplessly. "Based on the current situation, I can only wait for your sister to wake up!" "When she wakes up, how long will it take?" Lin Chen couldn't help roaring. "I don't know either..." Liu Menghuan sighed. "Maybe it's today, tomorrow, or the rest of my life!" Lin Chen's heart sank. If it was a lifetime, it meant that Lin Ling'er would lie in bed for a lifetime. At that time, even if Lin Ling'er's face was restored, so what! The room fell into dead silence. After a long time, Lin Chen waved his hand as if he had aged 10 years. "You can go!" Liu Menghuan sighed and flicked her finger. A pill flew towards Lin Chen. "This is the antidote!" Lin Chen took the antidote from her and looked at her in surprise. "Why?" Liu Menghuan smiled bitterly. "You keep your word. Although I want to kill you, I don't want to betray you!" Watching Liu Menghuan leave, Lin Chen swallowed the pill in his mouth. After the poison in his body had been neutralized, he came to Lin Ling'er's side. The Four Heavenly Kings and others, who had been waiting outside, directly rushed in and looked at Lin Chen with worried faces. "All of you can leave. I want to stay with Ling'er!" Lin Chen waved his hand. The lips of the Four Heavenly Kings, the Twelve Earthly Masters, and the three thousand generals moved, but in the end, they did not say anything. They bowed and left the room. Lin Chen grabbed Lin Ling'er's hand like a statue! ... At 12 o'clock in the night, Li Keqing stood by the window and looked at the lights of the Wan family outside. Tomorrow was the day she and Zhao Donglai would get married! But her heart was full of unwillingness, but there was nothing she could do. Because Zhao Donglai had already said that as long as she dared to make any move, Lin Chen and Lin Ling'er's bodies would be delivered to Li Keqing! Sometimes, she hated herself so much! Lin Chen had clearly fallen in love with someone else. Why was he still so stubborn? In order to protect the safety of the brother and sister, he was willing to sacrifice his whole life of happiness. His reason allowed Li Keqing to escape from the Wu Province and the Heavenly Pearl. Although the Li family was only a third-rate family of the Heavenly Pearl, as long as they could escape back to the Heavenly Pearl, the Zhao family would not be able to do anything about it! Li Keqing let out a murky breath and smiled bitterly. "Even if Lin Chen is heartless, Ling'er is innocent!" "I've already implicated Ling'er. Do I have to watch Ling'er die?" However, she clearly wanted to protect Lin Ling'er, so why was her mind filled with the shadow of Lin Chen at this moment? Lin Chen's head was as white as a sheet, and his eyes were full of despair and unwillingness! There was a sound of footsteps. Although Li Keqing did not look back, she knew that Zhao Donglai, who had been staying in the room to accompany her, was actually watching her. "Keqing, tell me, tomorrow is our wedding. Will Lin Chen come tonight?" Li Keqing raised his eyelids. "I have nothing to do with him anymore. Why did he come?" Zhao Donglai grabbed Li Keqing's hand with a ferocious look in his eyes. "Li Keqing, you'd better beg Lin Chen not to come!" "Because I have already ambushed ten warriors at the general level here. As long as he dares to come and take the risk to take you away, I will definitely kill him on the spot!" In order to win Zhao Donglai's trust, he showed that there was no Lin Chen in his heart. Li Keqing had already told Zhao Donglai about his relationship with Lin Chen, so Zhao Donglai said so! "He won't come, nor will he!" Li Keqing's voice was calm. She looked at Zhao Donglai calmly and said, "Please go out now. I'm going to sleep!" A hint of evil flashed in Zhao Donglai's eyes. "Tomorrow is the wedding, or I'll sleep here tonight!" Li Keqing's eyes turned cold. "You can sleep here, but I can't guarantee that when your soul flies out of your body, I will stab you in the chest!" Zhao Donglai's face changed, but he didn't dare to make a bet. He glared at Li Keqing and was about to leave. Li Keqing breathed a sigh of relief, turned around again, and looked out of the window. When he saw the person standing at the bottom of the building, his body trembled.
