Chapter 1562: Great Fortune

o Xuanji! Your nephew Zhao Jianye, as the commander of the Imperial Guards, faced a gathering of disaster victims, but he did not report to appease them. He even ordered the massacre of the disaster v...Chapter 1562 Great Fortune

After hearing Li Chen's words, Li Tianzun nodded knowingly, his expression unsurprised.

"It's a stroke of good fortune." Li Tianzun said with a smile.

Li Chen exclaimed, "Do you mean, Sword Immortal, that she'll be alright"

"In a situation where death is imminent, who can guarantee safe passage"

A swordsman's rhetorical question made Li Chen realize the absurdity of his own problem.

"Perhaps I was too presumptuous." Li Chen corrected himself.

"To fall and rise again, to break and build anew. She aspired to reach the realm of Earth Immortals, her innate talent was sufficient, but her fortune and foundation were still lacking. Under normal circumstances, this deficiency would have made it impossible for her to progress further for eternity. But now that she has broken through the shackles, whether she can create a new path will depend on an opportunity."

As for your life, Your Highness need not worry. The White Lotus Sect's internal teachings include a sacred text for healing. As the leader of the White Lotus Sect is a Terrestrial Immortal, with her intervention, keeping you alive will be no problem at all.

At this point, Li Tianzun suddenly changed his tune and said with a smile, "Why don't we make a deal"

Li Chen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and said with sincerity: "If the Sword Immortal needs anything, just speak plainly. As long as it's within my abilities, I will never shirk from it, why go through so much trouble"

Li Tianzun seemed to see through Li Chen's plans, and he said with a smile that was not quite a smile: "I don't owe favors, and the Taoist sect doesn't owe karmic debts. I take what the Taoist sect needs, solve your worries, so money and goods are settled, that is fair."

Li Chen said with a smile, "That's the best! Sword Immortal, please tell us, what does the Daoist sect need"

A figure like Li Tianzun is destined to have no needs of his own.

What he truly sought was something that even if Li Chen were the Prince of the Qin Empire, it wouldn't be able to give him.

But Taoism is different.

How could a religion that has lasted for millennia be separated from secular imperial power

This can also explain why Li Tianzun helped him time and again.

He is not for himself, but for Taoism.

Li Chen's heart was as clear as a mirror.

Now Li Chen is not worried that Li Tianzun will make a huge demand, but rather that he won't say anything at all.

Once one opens their mouth and there's a matter of interest involved, even the most detached immortal would have a weakness.

So Li Chen didn't ask Li Tianzun what he could give him, but instead directly asked what the sect needed.

"First, I'll help that young girl from the White Lotus sect obtain great fortune. As for what the Taoist sect needs, let my incompetent disciples and grandchildren come to you themselves and speak."

Li Chen narrowed his eyes, faintly feeling that what Li Tianzun was about to do probably wasn't that simple.

While they were speaking, Li Chen and the Prince Ning arrived at the teahouse where they had made an appointment.

Idle Pavilion.

“That’s a pretty interesting name.”

Li Chen glanced at the plaque and then climbed the stairs.

The idle building is not small, three floors up and down, at this moment already completely emptied.

There was a single attendant left downstairs, obviously lost.

The fellow didn't know if he had been instructed, but after seeing Li Chen, he didn't dare to fart. He bowed respectfully and then led Li Chen upstairs.

With Li Tianzun around, Li Chen would certainly not be intimidated anywhere.

Not only is he unafraid, but he even has a desire to find all the enemies and eliminate them all at once during this opportunity.

He gestured for Chen Tong and the Jinyiwei to stay on the first floor, taking only Li Tianzun, Wan Jiaojiao, and Banruo upstairs.

Tap tap tap.

As footsteps sounded from below, on the balcony of a shopfront apartment on the third floor, Prince Ning was seated opposite Jue'an, enjoying tea.ral may freely pledge.
