No matter what Huangji Tian thought, Jian Xin's first reaction to hearing this was refusal.

"I am only responsible for protecting your safety."

"Unless the King of Ning dies, I am not safe."

Li Chen spread his hands and said, "With King Ning dead, Gansu and Shaanxi provinces will be in chaos. The White Lotus Sect can then develop freely."

Jian Xin's face darkened, and she said, "You already promised me before."

"Aren't you selling the same piece of meat twice"

Li Chen smiled faintly: “That’s different. If King Ning were still alive, the White Lotus Sect would still have to find a way to deal with him. But if King Ning is dead, let's just say something everyone understands: Gansu and Shaanxi are no longer constrained, why would the court allow the White Lotus Sect to develop here Is it raising tigers to be harmed by them”

“So, it seems like the same conditions, but actually different environments. As long as King Ning was still around, I could agree to let the White Lotus Sect develop in Gansu and Shaanxi provinces, because I needed them to distract King Ning's attention, and they did need a place to develop properly. But now that King Ning is gone, the court has no more concerns. Gansu and Shaanxi should not be the White Lotus Sect's territory anymore.”

And for the White Lotus Sect, the difference between being with Ning Wang and not being with him was whether they could develop in peace.

"What I promised you before was that, under the circumstances of King Ning's reign, the imperial court would tacitly allow the White Lotus Sect to develop in the Gansu-Shaanxi region. Now what I'm promising you is that, even if King Ning dies, the White Lotus Sect can still develop in Gansu-Shaanxi."

Li Chen's words, I presume, will be incredibly familiar to certain video companies in the future that develop membership programs. The strategy is simple: there are memberships, and then there are even higher-tier memberships, creating layers upon layers of increasingly exclusive access.

Jianxin was indeed tricked.

He frowned, knowing Li Chen was being unreasonable, but he had no choice.

The White Lotus sect... really needs a place where it can develop peacefully.

"Isn't King Ning's life and death important to you" Jian Xin asked.

Li Chen said calmly: "That's right, I just said it. As long as King Ning is alive, I won't feel at ease. He's a huge threat, his danger is no less than that of the Liao army."

With a slight squint, Jian Xin said, “I hope this is the last time.”

Li Chen smiled slightly and said, "Rest assured, my word is my bond."

Hmph, Jianxin took a step forward and vanished from sight.

After Deng Jianxin left, Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and said faintly, "Bring the person up."

Xu Wei took the order and turned to leave. After a short while, he returned with a man behind him, a man with a face full of scars, his expression grim and terrifying.

Even a mind as strong as Emperor Jiutian's couldn't help but be startled by the man's majestic presence.

But the man remained calm and composed, walked up behind Li Chen, and knelt down respectfully.

Li Chen turned to look at the man kneeling before him, and said leisurely, "Under the premise that King Ning is not present, how much confidence do you have in bringing together the military power of the Sixteen Cavalry of Yan Yun"

The man calmly replied, "Two."

"What if Wu Yong cooperated" Li Chen asked again.

"Third," the man said, still calmly.

He was like a still pond, not even rippling.

"I fished you out of the dead pile, not for a mere 20% or 30% chance." Li Chen said indifferently.

"I am confident that I can prevent any unrest among the officials of King Ning's territory." The man immediately stated.

Li Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "Alright, go take care of it."

The man respectfully kowtowed to Li Chen and then stood up and left.

"Who is he"

After the man left, Huangji Tian couldn't wait to ask.

Li Chen said faintly, "He doesn't have a name right now. In his own words, he's already died once, so a name doesn't really matter."be considered a genuine person from Gansu and Shaanxi.""The largest tributary of the Yellow River is located in Guanzhong, and it is also the origin of Chinese civilization. It is the genuine bloodlin...
