I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 153: They are already emperors, why do they spoil them! (Please subscribe and vote)

"Hmm? Why are you looking at me? Don't worry about me, let's continue looking at the pictures."

Li Chen's eyes were still fixed on the blueprint, and he didn't take the two people next to him seriously at all.

The reason he came here was to follow Amir.

A few hours ago, Li Sixing said goodbye and left the palace, and Li Chen began to prepare to leave the palace.

He first returned to his own bedroom. With his skills and knowledge of the palace, no one would be able to notice him if he quietly left.

Li Chen had been to the royal forbidden area several times, so he was naturally familiar with the area.

Today he was wearing casual clothes and just wandering around the royal restricted area.

These so-called restrictions are nothing in front of Li Chen and can be easily circumvented.

During this time, he also checked to see if there were any leaks in the area.

Because these formations were set up a very long time ago, they were set up by the first few generations of powerful Li family members.

With the changes of the times, the formation will definitely weaken, and then the strong men of the Li family from generation to generation will make up for the shortcomings. It cannot be said to be an improvement, but it is the so-called filling of the gaps.

However, there are not many strong people in the later generations who can reach the Saint Realm. No matter how hard they try to make up for it, there are still some gaps.

This is how someone can enter the fringe area without being detected.

Moreover, the pagodas inside were built later to supplement the formation, so they cannot be perfect.

Li Chen is the contemporary emperor after all. As a saint, he can see some clues. He recorded them in his mind and asked Li Sixing to supplement them after returning.

After a while, he noticed a mysterious figure beginning to wander around the edge of the formation.

This guy's martial arts skills are very strange, and he can leave no trace.

If Li Chen hadn't waited in certain places based on his understanding of the formation, he might not have found this guy.

Since he has been discovered by Li Chen, Li Chen now has a way to deal with him on the spot.

But Li Chen's purpose of coming this time was not just to deal with a spy. He wanted to know who these people were, so he decided to play the long game and catch a big fish.

After waiting for a while, the guy finally finished his exploration and discovered the shortcomings of the pagoda.

When he went back, Li Chen followed him all the way until now.

Amir, who was at the Heaven Abyss Realm, could not detect the tracking of the Great Perfection Saint Realm at all.

Because in this world, as long as practitioners don't use artery stimulation, they are no different from ordinary people.

What's more, there is a huge gap between them in realm, so Li Chen and him are just like playing.

When passing by the area, I did find some secret sentries and simple restrictions.

These are child's play for Li Chen. They are not restrictions set up by a saint, so they do not pose any threat at all.

So he quietly appeared in the room and looked at the drawings with Amir and Qasim.

I have to say that Qasim is really a talented person. Many defects in the royal forbidden area are indeed marked on the drawings.

As for now, Amir and Qasim looked at him as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They even burst out with extremely strong strength, but Li Chen still didn't care.

In Li Chen's eyes, these two people were just ants that could be easily crushed to death. Even if an ant exploded, it was still an ant.

Amir and Qasim looked at each other, and the general meaning was that Amir, who was slightly stronger, planned to hold back the mysterious strong man in front of him, while Qasim hurried to run away.

All spies know what happens if they are caught.

This guy is obviously from the Tiance Dynasty, and he was able to track here quietly, so he is definitely not a simple character.

Only one can survive first, the other depends on fate.

Just as Amir was about to activate the artery technique, the strong man in front of him simply looked up at him.

Bang!
Amir was instantly blown into a pulp, and both his skin, flesh and bones were crushed in an instant.

The blood mist in the room and the various blood stains and meat mud on the walls of the room proved that Amir did exist.

Even though he was in the late Tianyuan realm, he had no room for resistance.

"What about you?" Li Chen glanced at Cassim.

Cassim was now terrified.

What happened? The powerful Amir died just like that?
In his opinion, Amir is already the strongest person below the Saint level.

At that moment, Qasim also reacted.

The one who could kill Amir instantly must be the emperor at the saint level.

Cassim had never seen Li Chen, but he had heard of Li Chen's strength. In the Manghuang Mountains, their family's spies saw with their own eyes the purple dragon and the defeat of the saint-level Dingtian Shangren. It can be said that Li Chen is a true top-level saint.

The biggest BOSS of the Tiance Dynasty is here, how do we defeat him?
The powerlessness and despair were fully reflected in him.

Seeing that Qasim didn't dare to make a move, Li Chen simply raised his hand, and Qasim was hit hard and fainted.

This was because Li Chen knew that he was weak, so he reduced his strength when he attacked, otherwise he would not be able to withstand it.

After all, we have to capture him alive, maybe we can get something out of him.

As for interrogation and arresting people, Li Chen doesn't need to come in person.

He went back and told Li Sixing, who immediately brought the imperial guards to arrest people, taking away all the people here and the secret sentries around.

Seeing the imperial guards appear, the surrounding residents were terrified and were also wondering who had been arrested and what they had done.

The next day, after the morning court session, Li Sixing came to report on the interrogation.

He arrested more than 30 people last night, most of them were from the Sassanid Empire. These guys had been in the imperial capital for a long time in the name of merchants.

The leader, Cassim, was very stubborn and insisted that he was a businessman.

Even though a lot of evidence was collected in the room, he refused to admit it.

Because he knew that admitting it would have huge consequences.

Anyway, everyone has been caught, so life and death are no longer a concern.

Even if he denies it, there are still traces of Li Sixing.

What Li Sixing now presented to Li Chen was the information of Qasim, who was from the Nasser family of the Sassanid Dynasty.

After Li Chen finished reading it, Li Sixing asked what to do.

The Nasser family is a big family in the Sassanid Empire. If not handled properly, it will lead to conflicts between the Tiance Dynasty and the Sassanid Empire.

Normally, there is a process here.

Those who work as spies are the elite among the elite.

The Tiance Dynasty can use these captured people for diplomacy and make the Nasser family pay a price.

After all, these people didn't really steal anything.

And if the Nasser family doesn't redeem the people, who will dare to work for them in the future?

Of course, important people like Qasim still have to be kept in custody, and they are just used in exchange for benefits from some smaller figures.

That is to tell the Nasser family that you have something on us.

Li Sixing understood, but he had no say and could only wait for Li Chen's judgment.

Li Chen put down the information and said to Li Sixing: "Give the order and let the Tiance Dynasty declare war on the Sassanid Dynasty."

When these words were spoken, Li Sixing was shocked.

He thought of many plans, but Li Chen just didn't play according to the routine.

Declare war just because you caught a spy?
Besides, these people are from the Nasser family, not the Sassanid royal family. Should we fight them?

Besides, didn’t the war just break out in the north? The Sassanid Empire was not a small country, but a relatively large superpower in the West.

The Tiance Dynasty also has to guard against the Third Prince and Prince Zhennan. Do they really have the military strength to fight them?

For a moment, Li Sixing didn't know what to do.

At this time, Li Chen threw a piece of information to him.

It was a secret report sent by the Minister of War yesterday, which was the military mobilization of various armies in the Sassanid Empire toward the east.

Li Sixing was only the commander of the imperial guards, he was not aware of these things.

After reading it, he roughly understood the meaning of Li Chen's declaration of war.

Anyway, the Sassanid Empire would take action sooner or later.

According to Li Chen's personality, instead of just being timid and expecting others not to beat him, it would be better for him to beat all these people directly.

Let them know that if they dare to covet the Tiance Dynasty, they will pay the price of rivers of blood.

Pursuing stability is not Li Chen’s style. What he wants is absolute hegemony!

They are emperors now, so why do we indulge them in anything?

After receiving the order, Li Sixing left the imperial study and went to inform the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War.

Since Your Majesty said so, then he must have a way. All the subjects need to do is trust Your Majesty.

Li Chen's strength gave his subjects an inexplicable confidence and trust in him.

But if this news is released, there will be a lot of discussion in the court tomorrow.

That was not within Li Sixing's consideration. He was only the commander of the imperial guards, not the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

If the person who said this was an emperor with an unstable position or a weak emperor, Li Sixing would dare to refute directly and ask the emperor to calm down and not get angry. But since it was Li Chen who spoke, Li Sixing dared not say anything.

The national celebration is about to begin, and envoys from all nations are arriving in the imperial capital one after another.

It would be nice to be able to resolve some issues before the celebration begins.

Li Chen continued to check the files in the imperial study. At this rate, it would take until the celebration was over to deal with the remnants of the previous dynasty.

When things were almost done, Li Chen returned to his bedroom.

Compared to the deserted past, it is now much more lively.

There is another very crucial thing today, that is Li Sining's plan to break through.

She has been practicing for some time, and with the help of various top-grade elixirs and props, her progress is very fast.

There are many cultivators in Li Chen’s harem, and even Wu Nanzhi has a certain level of cultivation.

Mu Qingrou, who had the highest level of cultivation, originally intended to persuade Li Sining that cultivation should not be rushed and a solid foundation must be laid.

Especially when you are in the Kaimai state, you need to settle down for a while.

Mu Qingrou had also met many disciples who cultivated very fast in the early stages, but in the later stages, the strength of their meridians could not keep up and they could not make any further progress no matter what.

It is said that the ancient monks practiced faster, but they died for various reasons when they were about to ascend.

According to the understanding of traditional cultivators, Li Si Ning needs to stay in the Kaimai Realm for half a year to consolidate his foundation.

Even if there is no problem, there is nothing wrong with taking a little more time to calm down.

Mu Qingrou was a little angry at the time and said, "Who asked you to practice so fast? It's simply irresponsible."

As the master of Ziyun Immortal Mansion, she pays great attention to the basic training of her disciples.

What's more, she is Li Chen's woman now, and Li Si Ning is her sister-in-law.

She wanted to know who made Li Sining practice so randomly.

However, when Li Sining said that it was Li Chen who asked her to practice like this, Mu Qingrou instantly became speechless, and the anger on her face completely disappeared.

Then he changed his words and said, "Actually, there is nothing wrong with your cultivation this way. People are different. Maybe your brother's method is more suitable for you."

Are you kidding? Even the Impeccable Sword Master wouldn't dare to question Li Chen.

Li Chen’s strength is there, and this is the truth.

Could Li Chen be wrong? That was obviously impossible.

If he had made a wrong judgment, how could he have such a terrifying level of cultivation now?

Mu Qingrou would rather think that she had made wrong judgments over the years than think that Li Chen was wrong.

The so-called "standard" is the judgment made by top experts over the years based on the overall situation of the practitioners.

That is what we call a rule of thumb, which is suitable for the so-called 'majority of people'.

But according to Li Chen's theory, everyone has a different body structure, bloodline, talent and understanding, so the methods of cultivation may also be different.

Experience can be used as a reference, but there is no need to copy it rigidly.

You have to consider whether there will be any problems with your ascension, but the problem is that you have to cultivate to the Saint realm first.

You can't even cultivate to the Saint realm, how can you even think about ascending to heaven?

When Li Chen returned to the vicinity of the bedroom, he saw a group of women surrounding Li Si Ning, hoping that she would successfully break through.

That feeling seemed to be even more tense than their own breakthrough.

When Li Chen arrived here, Li Sining had already reached the final stage.

At this moment, Li Si Ning's meridians were constantly glowing, and purple electricity was flashing around her body.

Behind her, there was a faint purple halo.

As long as this aperture is successfully condensed, it will prove that she has successfully broken through.

But at this moment, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder.

I don’t know if it’s because his talent is too extraordinary that caused the strange phenomenon in heaven and earth, or if it’s a special situation that only occurs when an electric-attribute cultivator breaks through.

The dark clouds did not last long. They dissipated after Li Si Ning successfully broke through, and everything returned to calm.

At this moment, the halo on Li Si Ning's body can already be seen, which is the sign of the Ningyuan realm.

Next, in the cultivation from the Ningyuan Realm to the Liuhe Realm, Li Si Ning needs to open nine halos to be able to break through to the Guantian Realm.

After the Guantian realm comes the advanced stage.

It is worth mentioning that Li Sining’s current halo is different from Li Chen’s halo.

Only cultivators who have opened the divine ring can reach the realm of saints.

After reaching the Saint realm, the more divine rings one has, the stronger one is not necessarily the case. Some cultivators only have one divine ring, but this one divine ring is so huge that they can still defeat cultivators with many divine rings.

The number of divine rings depends solely on the technique practiced by the practitioner.

Just like Dingtian Shangren only has two magic rings, and Mu Qingrou has five magic rings, Mu Qingrou is no match for Dingtian Shangren.

The halo on a practitioner is actually the so-called "special effect" and is also a proof of a certain stage. It can demonstrate one's strength but has no practical use.

Moreover, it consumes energy to open the magic ring, so when fighting, monks basically do not open it to waste their energy.

As soon as Li Si Ning completed the breakthrough, she saw Li Chen coming over. Naturally, she came to Li Chen happily and asked him how to practice next.

Because it was Li Chen who taught her how to practice, other women didn't dare to give her any pointers.

Li Chen checked her body and confirmed that she had reached the Nascent Soul Realm, so he asked her to continue practicing according to the "Nine Heavens Dragon Vein Sutra". As long as she practiced to the extreme, she would be able to enter the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm.

Then there is the so-called imparting of 'experience'.

Li Chen must have his own set of methods after practicing to this level.

Many women around pricked up their ears, expecting to hear some secrets from Li Chen.

This is the cultivation method of the top monks in the Saint Realm. It is a great benefit if you learn it.

Who knew that Li Chen said to Li Si Ning: "You can practice as you like. As long as you feel your meridians become stronger, there will be no problem. If you feel that they become weaker, come to me."

This statement stunned everyone around.

What you said is as good as saying nothing. What does "practice however you want" mean?
But Mu Qingrou seemed to be thinking about something. She felt that this should be a method of self-perception cultivation.

Because Mu Qingrou knew that Li Sining had never done any cultivation work, that is, the knowledge of basic knowledge.

She practiced entirely through her own instincts, following the methods recorded in the "Nine Heavens Dragon Vein Secret".

But there were no notes on the "Nine Heavens Dragon Vein Secret".

You know, books like "Nine Heavens Dragon Vein Secret" are written in so-called "classical Chinese", which is difficult to understand without notes.

That is to say, if a hundred people watch it, there may be a hundred and one ways of understanding it.

There is nothing wrong with understanding nature, but once it is misunderstood, it will cause the meridians to flow backwards and all power will be lost.

Mu Qingrou felt that Li Chen must have discovered that Li Si Ning had a special talent for understanding, so he let her understand it on her own, so that it would not delay her cultivation.

This statement is not wrong, but it is not comprehensive.

Li Chen knew that Li Si Ning had a bone-eating poisonous body. This was a special holy body that needed to be cultivated. Without a special technique, no one knew how to cultivate it.

Just like Xiao Ming’s master, before he noticed Xiao Ming’s special physique, he just thought he was an ordinary genius.

So according to Li Sining's feeling, there definitely won't be any big problems.

Li Chen will only give a solution when Li Sining encounters difficulties.

It is naturally a good thing that Li Si Ning can break through. When she cultivates to the great perfection of the Saint realm, the Li family will have one more powerful person.

After the breakthrough, Li Sining always wanted to stick to Li Chen, but Li Chen told her that she needed to tell her mother and the queen mother about the good news.

As her mother, Concubine Yi must be proud of her.

After all, the Queen Mother is Li Sining's angel investor, and Li Chen let the Queen Mother know that the investment will pay off.

In this way, the Queen Mother will continue to get closer to Li Chen's camp, and even get close to Li Chen.

Li Chen has also completed the task and obtained the materials for the next stage.

That is, the ten top-grade Dragon Blood Essence Pills obtained in the mission of the Battle Academy examination.

This is a good thing. When Li Chen took it out, he treated it lightly and told her to eat it casually, as if it were something worthless.

But after Li Chen left, Mu Qingrou said to Li Si Ning: "Your brother is so good to you. This elixir is the best in the cultivation world and is worth a fortune."

According to Mu Qingrou, even the top alchemy sects would be reluctant to give elixirs of this quality to their disciples.

Being able to take out one means that the disciple is extremely talented and is highly expected by the sect.

Countless disciples even fought to the death for such a pill.

This statement surprised Li Sining a little, because the pills that Li Chen took out were basically of this quality.

She even put it on a plate and ate it as a snack.

Li Sining had never practiced it before, so she didn't know that this thing was so precious.

Seeing that other women were also looking at her with envy, Li Sining felt even more proud, and her already strong favor towards Li Chen overflowed again.
