Chapter 1 The Emperor's Visit

Jing Chen raised his head and glanced at the distance. There was a winding fire dragon spreading this way. The shining central army number showed the ownership of this team. Jing Chen sighed and walked slowly towards the team. When they saw Jing Chen walking towards that side, they also hurriedly followed.

"Quick! There are still people over there. Hurry up and catch them!" Before long, some soldiers had found Jing Chen, and a small group of sergeants rushed over.

An officer in the captain's uniform shouted to Jing Chen and others, "We are the Central Army of the Empire. At the order of Marshal Perry, we will arrest the rebels. Please cooperate with us." Many soldiers have crystal guns in their hands. To put it bluntly, this crystal gun is a reduced version of the magic crystal gun. Its power is much smaller, but its advantage is that it is light and can be operated by one person. Generally, it is still very effective to deal with people below level 4. Even if you are a strong person at level 4 or 5, if you encounter a crystal gun array, it is more or less auspicious, but it doesn't make much sense to deal with a six-level strong man who acts like the wind.

"It's me!" Jing Chen said in a low voice that he was in an extremely bad mood at this moment. Looking at these soldiers guarding themselves with crystal guns, Jing Chen couldn't help but feel a trace of irritation.

"No matter who you are, please put down your weapons and cooperate with us..." The captain-like man said and retreated. Along the way, he met a lot of rebellious people.

"Get out!" Jing Chen's body trembled and appeared next to the captain in an instant. Originally, he stared at Jing Chen's captain, but he only felt a flower in front of him. The next moment, he felt that one hand had pinched his neck. Jing Chen shook it casually, and the officer who looked like the captain was thrown out in an instant. He hit an ancient tree and rolled on the ground for a long time. Several soldiers in the team hurriedly ran over and helped him up from the ground.

"You...you...do you dare to resist?" The captain said angrily, but this time he didn't dare to order hard. Just looking at Jing Chen's hand just now, I'm afraid it's a matter of minutes to ask him for his name.

"Xiao Chen?" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind Jing Chen. Jing Chen slowly turned around and looked calmly at the source of the voice, Marshal Perry.

"Marshal!" The captain and the soldiers around him obviously also found Marshal Perry and hurriedly saluted Perry with a standard military salute.

Perry waved his hand and said in a low voice, "You step back." After saying that, his eyes fell into Jing Chen's arms, "Song...Xiao Xue?!" With an exclamation, Perry took two steps to Jing Chen and took Ling Xue in Jing Chen's arms.

"Xiao Xue, wake up, Xiao Xue, wake up..." Perry called Ling Xue in his arms softly. For a long time, he saw that Ling Xue was still unresponsive. Then he looked up at Jing Chen and asked, "Xiao Chen, is this child...?" There was a trace of trembling in his voice, and a bad feeling appeared in Perry's heart at this moment.

"Senior sister, she...she is dead..." After saying that, Jing Chen turned his head to one side and sighed.

"Dead? How can it be? Xiaoxue's body is still warm. How can she die? Although there were tears in Perry's eyes, he still looked at Jing Chen. At this moment, the marshal of the empire, the military god who had been on the battlefield for hundreds of years, really cried. Ling Xue grew up. When she was young, Ling Xue often came to Perry, and her grandpa kept screaming all day long. Now I think about it, the scene of the cute little girl pulling herself and calling her grandpa, just like yesterday, but now he is holding her body. How can the old man bear it?

"Grandpa Perry, so you're here." When the words fell, a teenager came from not far away and swept around. First, he saw Ling Xue in Perry's arms, and then saw Jing Chen and others. At this moment, a trace of fear flashed in the teenager's eyes, but that trace of fear was fleeting, and no one noticed it.

"sister, sister, what's wrong with you? Grandpa Perry, what's wrong with my sister? The teenager was the second prince Ling Yun. At this moment, Ling Yun was holding one of Ling Xue's arms and shaking, and two lines of tears flowed down. This is not what he pretended to do. Ling Yun knows everything about this time, but until now, he has to pretend that he knows nothing. Otherwise, if his father knows the truth, I'm afraid...

"Ling Yun, if it weren't for you, would Sister Xue die? Don't put garlic there!" The sound of Ling Su's urn suddenly sounded.

"You... who are you? Is it because of you that my sister died? Come on, hurry up and take down these people!" Ling Yun roared at the guards on both sides, but these guards were the guards of Marshal Perry. They only listened to Perry's orders, not to mention that he was a prince. Even the emperor of the Holy Spirit Empire may not be able to mobilize these people.

"Ling Yun, they are Ling Xue's classmates and... best friends." Perry took a deep look at Jing Chen and turned his head. At this moment, Jing Chen's heart suddenly tightened. Yue Yanran, who stood beside Jing Chen, seemed to feel Jing Chen's mood. Her arms gently hugged Jing Chen and immediately gave the latter a firm supportive look.

At this moment, a messenger ran over and reported to Perry, "Report to the marshal, the Royal Guard Star General has something important to see!"

"Oh? Let him come to see me." Perry frowned slightly. The royal guard has always been the emperor's personal guard, and the star general in the mouth of the messenger should be Xing Yu, who was promoted to the captain of the guard not long ago. I heard that this man was the adopted son of the commander of the guard, but Perry had only seen him a few times and was not familiar with it.

"Marshal Perry, OK." After a while, a young general in full uniform came over and saluted Perry slightly.

"General Xing, you're welcome. You're looking for me in such a hurry late at night. What can I do?" Perry looked calmly at the stars in front of him.

"Marshal, can I have a word?" Xing Yu said slowly with another courtesy. Obviously, he really had something confidential to explain to Perry.

Returning Ling Xue's body to Jing Chen, Perry nodded and walked towards an empty place with Xingyu.

"Why is the general named Xingyu so similar to Xing Mochen?" After seeing the two leave, Jing Chen and Yue Yanran beside him whispered.

Yue Yanran meditated slightly and nodded, "It's true that there is some imagination, but the Xing family should not have such a powerful son, otherwise it will not be suppressed by other families in the Kingdom of Gama."

Jing Chen was slightly stunned and nodded immediately. Indeed, as Yue Yanran said, if there is really an important member of the empire at the level of this young general in the star clan, how can he be suppressed by the family in the small place of the Kingdom of Gama, and it depends on the face of the royal court of the Kingdom of Gama.

Not long after, Marshal Perry came back alone, and the young general had already left with him. Perry looked thoughtful. When he came back, he said to the adjutant beside him, "Go back to Cologne City, immediately!" The adjutant was slightly stunned and hurried down to convey Marshal Perry's order.

"Grandpa Perry?" Ling Yun looked at Perry with a puzzled face.

"Your father is here." Perry said in a low voice.

"What?" Ling Yun exclaimed. He never thought that his father, the emperor of the Holy Spirit Empire, would come here. What is this? Do you want to go on a personal expedition? Let's talk about meritorious deeds.

Perry took a look at Jing Chen standing there, smiled bitterly and said, "Let's go. Your Majesty has wanted to see you for a long time." Then he turned his head and said to Ling Su and others, "You have also performed very well. With your joint efforts, this beast tide is finally over. I will truthfully report your achievements to the emperor and reward them." Unfortunately, after listening to Perry's words, there was no joy on their faces. For those rewards, even Anton, who regarded wealth as his life, did not care at this moment, because those rewards were all exchanged for Ling Xue's blood.

The way back is calm. Jing Chen has been holding Ling Xue's still warm body.

"Teacher, do you know any way to save Sister Xue?" Jing Chen, who seems to be meditating, is actually not idle. He has been discussing with Rios how to save Ling Xue. After all, the water god Rotis also said before he left that only Lahir can save Ling Xue, and Jingchen has obtained Lahir's deity. It can be said that he is the god of life in the world.

"There should be, but it must belong to the realm of God, and it only belongs to the realm of Lahir, the god of life." Rios said slowly, and he also heard what Rhotis said. How could Rios, who has lived for thousands of years, not understand the deep meaning in Rotis's words, but it is better to have hope than no hope. Whether this water god is on a whim or intentional, at least Ling Xue is not really dead now.
