Chapter 157 Invitation

"Who is the commander?"

A burly, upright-looking man, whose clothes were obviously different from those of Yu Chiping, rode up on horseback. Followed by a group of imperial guards, he came to Chen Shuai and others and said loudly.

After hearing the commotion, Chen Shuai and others turned to look at the group of soldiers, and their expressions suddenly became solemn. When they learned that these people were looking for Chen Shuai, everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn to Chen Shuai. After Chen Shuai examined them, he spoke. Said: "I am."

"Master Jishuai, the emperor has invited you, please come with us." The big man looked at Chen Shuai and brought the emperor's oral instructions.

Hearing this, everyone looked puzzled. What did the emperor want to do with Chen Shuai?
"Commander Commander, be careful!" Kong Shui warned him at the right time. No one had a good impression of the imperial court. Now that they knew that the emperor was looking for Commander Chen, they were naturally worried.

Seeing that Chen Shuai refused to reply, the big man suddenly said: "Jie Shuai, if you don't go, these people will be buried with you."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn. After hearing these words, the soldiers behind the big man looked at Chen Shuai and others with murderous intent on their faces, and the archers were also ready to attack.

Seeing this scene, Kong Shui and others looked extremely ugly. They had just got rid of Yuchiping, but they did not expect to encounter the emperor's imperial guards again. For a time, everyone felt that they had cursed the emperor many times.

"I can go with you, but I have to let them go."

Chen Shuai thought for a while and then said. Hearing this, Kong Shui looked anxious: "Jie Shuai..."

He was interrupted by Chen Shuai before he finished speaking. Chen Shuai shook his head slightly. It is true that he could refuse, but the consequences of refusal would have to be borne by everyone. Kong Shui and others had been fighting Yuchiping's army for so long, and they were obviously exhausted.

If he continues to fight with these people in front of him, he is afraid of a narrow escape. In this case, there will be no difference between whether Chen Shuai is saved or not.

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me." The big man shook his head and said with endless indifference in his voice.

Hearing this, Chen Shuai took a step forward and punched the big man. The punch did not hit the big man, but it was very fast and passed by the big man in an instant, making a dull sound in mid-air. If it hit the big man, the big man would definitely be injured.

The big man also noticed this situation, and his face couldn't help but become ugly. Chen Shuai's punch was undoubtedly a demonstration to him. Sure enough, the same cold voice came from Chen Shuai's mouth: "Are you qualified now? "

The two sides looked at each other, their eyes met, and there were bursts of smoke. The scene suddenly became dead silent. No one spoke, but everyone knew what might happen next.

"Okay! I promise you!" After a long time, the big man said in a deep voice, regaining his previous indifference. After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Shuai nodded, not surprised at the big man's compromise. The emperor asked him by name. The big man might be able to threaten Kong Shui and others, but he could not threaten him, let alone Chen Shuai.

"Uncle, I suspect that I will take action against you after I follow them away. When the time comes, follow this fallen leaf, and it will take you to a safe place. As long as you are not caught, it is just a palace. I can leave if I want." Go, stay if you want."

After Chen Shuai explained a few words, he said to Kong Shui and handed a leaf to Kong Shui. Kong Shui already knew how to use the leaf. After hearing the words, he nodded and warned: "Okay, be careful."

"Ah."

Not long after, Chen Shuai left with the big man and his group. After Chen Shuai left, Kong Shui and others followed the leaves and disappeared into the forest.

Under the leadership of the big man, the group entered the palace without any obstruction. The moment they entered the palace, Chen Shuai had an inexplicable look on his face. He sensed a vague demonic aura.

"Could it be that the palace is really occupied by demons?"

Chen Shuai thought that the many demons he met along the way seemed to have some unclear relationship with the imperial court. Coupled with the incident of the Demon Slaying Conference, he couldn't help but make such speculations in his mind.

I don't know whether it was because of his status as a big man or because the emperor had already given him instructions. In short, Chen Shuai was taken outside a magnificent hall without even reporting. The other party didn't seem to stop him when they saw him, but just let him go. Enter the main hall.

The hall was filled with sandalwood and was spacious. As soon as Chen Shuai walked in, he saw the emperor sitting on the dragon throne. His temples were gray and his face was full of wrinkles. The only thing that caught people's attention was his piercing eyes. God's eyes.

In the entire hall, except for Chen Shuai, there were only the emperor and one eunuch. The moment Chen Shuai entered the hall, the door of the hall was closed. The eunuch jumped up, and his ghostly figure suddenly rushed to Chen Shuai. In front of him, he attacked Chen Shuai as soon as he disagreed.

When Chen Shuai saw this, his heart trembled. He felt the strength displayed by this eunuch. When faced with the opponent's attack, he did not shy away. With his current strength, there was really no need to avoid it. The opponent struck out with a very gentle palm, Chen Shuai. Shuai punched back.

There was not much movement in the fist-to-palm exchange. Both sides intended to restrain their movements. Chen Shuai also realized that the other party was just testing and did not kill him. However, he felt slightly unhappy, so he used [-]% of his strength. His strength beat the old eunuch back repeatedly.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Chen Shuai defeated his henchman with just one move, the emperor couldn't help but reveal a happy smile. He stood up and walked down, came to Chen Shuai, looked at Chen Shuai, and after a moment he said: "Sure enough, a hero comes from a young age. Commander Jie, you must have reached the ninth realm of transformation."

Although it was a question, there was an affirmation in his words. Chen Shuai did not explain, but looked at the emperor quietly. The closer he got, the more he could feel the vicissitudes of life in the emperor. His whole person seemed to be affected by the years. Baptized in general.

"You must be very strange, what is the reason why I came to you this time." The emperor looked at Chen Shuai who was silent and didn't care, but smiled.

Chen Shuai shook his head and said: "I am not interested in your purpose. On the contrary, I am more interested in the real purpose of the Demon Slaying Conference."

"Be brave and answer whatever His Majesty asks you." The old lady on the side listened and scolded.

Chen Shuai didn't look at him, as if he didn't hear him. When the old eunuch saw this, he was furious. At this moment, the emperor raised his hand, interrupting the old eunuch's anger. The old eunuch's face calmed down instantly, and he It was as if nothing had happened.

"Commander, don't you think that sometimes people are more greedy than demons? These forces have a lot of wealth, fields and slaves. They do not produce, but they occupy hundreds of thousands of resources in a city and a pool. But you are still not satisfied, wantonly amassing wealth, hoarding food, and plundering the people's wealth and wealth. You said, what do I still do with such power?"

The emperor smiled and asked.

Chen Shuai frowned: "Is this why you cooperate with the demon?" "As long as you can achieve your goal, what method can't work?" The emperor smiled lightly.

Chen Shuai didn't say anything after hearing this. The other party's words had confirmed the fact that he was cooperating with the demon. At this point, it was meaningless to say anything. Could he still accuse the other party?No need!
"Then what do you want from me?" Chen Shuai asked the last question.

The emperor laughed after hearing this: "It's very simple. I want you to do something for me. As long as you agree, I can forget about the Demon Slaying Conference and even guarantee that I will not attack the Futu Temple in the future."

"Are you threatening me?"

Chen Shuai's eyes flashed with a threatening aura. The old eunuch shuddered slightly when he saw this, and took a step forward to prevent Chen Shuai from taking action against the emperor.

"Threat? It's not a threat, it should be cooperation, your cooperation with me. Originally, my purpose in this demon-slaying conference was to use the hands of demons to eradicate all major forces, but because of your appearance, my plan fell through. Now I'm giving you a chance to make amends, shouldn't you be grateful to me?" The emperor noticed Chen Shuai's dissatisfaction and said.

"If you say that, I should still thank you?" Chen Shuai sneered and said sarcastically.

Hearing this, the old eunuch had a look of dissatisfaction on his face. He wanted to speak, but the emperor said: "Of course, you can refuse, but if you refuse, the group of people you saved will be afraid..."

"Do you believe I can kill you right here?" Chen Shuai's voice suddenly turned cold and he said expressionlessly.

"You dare!" the old eunuch said, standing between Chen Shuai and the emperor. This time, the emperor did not speak, but it was obvious that his face was ugly. As an emperor, this was the first time he saw such a bold man. man of.

He was keenly aware that Chen Shuai's words just now were not a joke, but that he really had the intention to kill him, which made the emperor shocked and angry.

"What do you want from me?" Chen Shuai snorted and asked.

After hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face. He just heard him say: "It has something to do with demons. Someone will tell you what it is specifically."

"Then I refuse." Chen Shuai refused without hesitation. He didn't even say anything. How could he agree? Besides, he was just saying the same thing and had no intention of agreeing.

"Huh?" The emperor was stunned for a moment. This refusal was too straightforward.

After taking a deep look at Chen Shuai, the emperor said: "It's okay to tell you. I want to use your strength to eradicate a demon."

Hearing this, Chen Shuai glanced at the other party and used their strength to eradicate a demon?
In other words, the person involved in this matter was not just Chen Shuai, but also others?
"I'm a little surprised. Before, you cooperated with demons to eradicate all forces, and now you are cooperating with me to eradicate a demon. This attitude changes really quickly!" Chen Shuai said lightly.

The emperor did not explain, but looked at Chen Shuai, waiting for Chen Shuai's answer. Chen Shuai quickly gave the answer: "I refuse."

This answer was beyond the emperor's expectation. He didn't expect that Chen Shuai still refused even though he had mentioned it, and he refused so simply. Didn't this guy know what the price of refusal was?

"You might as well think about it again?"

The emperor said coldly that Chen Shuai's repeated disrespect finally aroused his anger. He said that he was cooperating with Chen Shuai, but in fact, the emperor never put Chen Shuai on the same footing.

He stared at Chen Shuai, waiting for Chen Shuai's reply. Once Chen Shuai refused, he would order people to eradicate Kong Shui and others. However, to his disappointment, Chen Shuai did not show any panic on his face. , as if he wasn't worried about the safety of Kong Shui and others at all.

"Don't think about it. I don't care what your intentions are. I just want to tell you not to provoke me. Maybe you can eradicate all the forces and eradicate the pagoda temple, but as long as you dare to do this, I guarantee that you can't stop it with the guards of the palace. Stop me, if I want to kill you, let alone this eunuch in front of you, even ten such eunuchs will not help." Chen Shuai said coldly.

Hearing the strong threat in Chen Shuai's words, no matter how well-educated the emperor was, he couldn't help it. Seeing this, the old eunuch on the side attacked Chen Shuai directly. The distance between the two was very close, and the old eunuch's speed It was also very fast, but unfortunately, the opponent was still no match for Chen Shuai. This time, Chen Shuai used [-]% of his strength to directly force the old eunuch back.

The old eunuch took a few steps back and looked at Chen Shuai with a solemn expression. The fight just now gave him a completely different feeling. Chen Shuai's strength has improved a lot, and he is stronger than before. The last time they fought, the two were evenly matched, but this time , but he is no match for Chen Shuai, which can only show that Chen Shuai has hidden his strength.

Looking at the young and immature face of the other party, the old eunuch's mouth couldn't help but twitch. He didn't know how the other party practiced and how he could be so powerful.

The emperor also noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere. The old eunuch he relied on the most was forced back by Chen Shuai's move without moving at all. This scene made him vaguely aware of something, and his pupils shrank slightly.

Chen Shuai ignored the gazes of the two people, snorted softly, then turned and left. After Chen Shuai left, the entire hall became quiet, and the emperor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The look in Chen Shuai's eyes just now made him very uneasy, for fear that the other party would treat him badly. Take action.

"Your Majesty, this man is very strong. I am no match for him." The old eunuch came to the emperor and whispered. The brief exchange made him realize how powerful Chen Shuai was.

The emperor nodded after hearing this and asked: "Compared with him and the demon, who is stronger?"

These words made the old eunuch stunned. He thought for a moment and said: "Yilaonu speculates that if the two of them really compete, the demon will be better. He has reached the ninth level of mortal transformation and is stronger than the commander. Get some."

The emperor fell silent after hearing this, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly, the old eunuch saw a carrier pigeon, grabbed it and took the letter to the emperor. After reading it, the emperor handed it over to the other party and said in a deep voice: "The imperial guards failed to follow, and the group of monks ran away."

"Your Majesty, do you need me to personally lead people to arrest them?" the old eunuch asked.

"No need. This group of people is no longer relevant and has little impact on our plan. It's a pity that this commander-in-chief is the one!"

The emperor sighed quietly. Chen Shuai knew about their plan but had no intention of joining. This made him angry.

"Since he doesn't plan to join, there's no need to keep him."

Hearing this, the old eunuch looked startled, bowed and said, "Yes!"
