In the underground refuge city, Li Xiu Ning pulled Li Lizhi behind her and faced Lin Chen.
Li Xiu Ning's beautiful eyes narrowed as she stared at Lin Chen, her heart surging with shock.
Who was this person? Were they really just bandits?
The stronghold was like an iron wall with ten thousand subordinates. They even built this huge underground city and had the layout of the Qiankun Eight Trigrams!
This kind of talent was a hundred times stronger than the generals in the court!
Could he be a mountain bandit?
If all the mountain bandits were like him, would the Great Tang still have the surname Li?
Li Xiu Ning's view of Lin Chen had undergone a huge change. If this person could submit to the imperial court, he would definitely be a pillar of the imperial court.
Other than his poor martial arts, being a little insidious, and being a little lecherous, he had no other shortcomings.
"Hey, have you seen enough? I know I'm very handsome, but if you keep staring at me, I'll feel shy too.”Lin Chen raised his eyebrows at Li Xiu Ning and revealed a playful smile.
Li Xiuning rolled her eyes in annoyance. He had never seen such a thick-skinned person!
Oh right, there was another flaw. He was too thick-skinned!
"Thief! You…"
"Hey, can you stop calling me a thief? I have a name, I'm Lin Chen!”Lin Chen grumbled at Li Xiu Ning. This woman's mouth was really foul. He would definitely teach her a good lesson later.
"Alright, Lin Chen." Li Xiu Ning wanted to recruit Lin Chen, and her tone softened a little.
"Lin Chen, I see that you are very talented. Why do you want to become a bandit here? As the saying goes, if you learn martial arts, you can sell your goods to the emperor. Why don't you submit to the imperial court and make contributions to the imperial court?”
"With my recommendation, I will definitely give you a suitable official position. In the future, when you become a general and become a marquis, you will bring honor to your ancestors.”Li Xiu Ning persuaded.
Lin Chen dug his ears and replied slowly,"Why should I be an official in the court?"
"The Imperial Court is full of schemes and conspiracies. It would be great if I was in the village, free and unrestrained.”
"And what's so good about making contributions? Don't you know that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger? If you anger the emperor, no matter how many contributions you have, your head will be removed.”
"I would rather occupy a mountain and be king than be a flattering high official.”
When Li Xiu Ning heard this, she gritted her teeth." Alright, if you don't want to be an official, I won't force you."”
"I can see that you have a kind heart, so why don't you let us go? You have to know that the Great Tang is at war with the Turks, and His Majesty is trapped in Youzhou City.”
"If anything happens to His Majesty, then the Great Tang will be shaken. At that time, the people will be in dire straits, and it will be your fault!”
"Hehe, don't put such a big label on me. I don't care at all!”Lin Chen sneered," Do you think that without the Turkic invasion, the people of the world would be able to live and work in peace?”
"If that's the case, why would I occupy the mountain and be king?”
"Do you know how many people there were on my mountain?”
"To tell you the truth, there are only about a thousand bandits. The rest are the people around here. If what you said is true and the world is peaceful and the people live and work in peace, why would they come to my village?”
Lin Chen looked at Li Xiu Ning and said coldly,""The so-called living and working in peace and contentment is only for you high-ranking officials. What has it got to do with the commoners?”
" This..." Li Xiu Ning was rendered speechless by Lin Chen's rebuttal. She didn't know how to answer.
At this moment, Li Lizhi popped her head out and whispered,""Not all officials care about the lives of the people. My aunt is a good official.”
"She was the general guarding the pass. Under her leadership, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. They did not have to worry about food and clothing.”
"Also, His Majesty is very wise. I believe that under His Majesty's leadership, the Great Tang will gradually enter a prosperous era.”
"But you have to let us go to save His Majesty first. If we delay any longer, it will be too late.”
When Lin Chen heard this, he smiled faintly." Perhaps what you said is true. However, if the ruler of a country needs to be saved by two women, then he won't be that strong.”
"Alright, don't waste your breath. I won't let you go. In a while, we'll be getting married.”
Li Xiu Ning's beautiful eyes narrowed, and her body emitted a powerful chill." It seems that we can't persuade you. Then don't blame me!"”
"What do you want now?" Lin Chen looked at Li Xiu Ning playfully without a trace of fear.
"Hehe, Lin Chen, you are too careless. You actually appeared in front of me. This time, you can't play any dirty tricks, right? After I capture you, I will use you as a hostage to escape this village!”
"Take this!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xiu Ning rushed in front of Lin Chen. Her right hand clenched into a fist and struck Lin Chen's chest at lightning speed.
Li Xiu Ning was very confident in her strength. If this punch hit, it would definitely make Lin Chen lose his combat ability!
However, an unbelievable scene happened!
Lin Chen did not dodge. When Li Xiu Ning's punch came, he raised his right hand.
Pa! With a crisp sound, the fist and palm collided. Li Xiu Ning's fist was firmly grasped by Lin Chen!
"How is this possible!" Li Xiu Ning's expression changed drastically. She widened her beautiful eyes and looked at Lin Chen in shock." You know martial arts?”
"Who told you I don't know martial arts?" Lin Chen laughed.”
"Then why didn't you use martial arts on the battlefield? Why did you cheat?”Li Xiu Ning questioned.
Lin Chen used his left hand to dig his ear." Didn't I say it? I can easily capture you, so why should I go through the trouble of fighting you for hundreds of rounds?”
" You…" Li Xiu Ning was so angry that she didn't know what to say. Her beautiful eyes narrowed as she raised her right foot and aimed it at Lin Chen's lower abdomen.
"Why aren't you done yet? Looks like I'm really going to teach you a lesson!”
Lin Chen's eyes narrowed, and he twisted his legs to dodge Li Xiu Ning's kick.
Then, Lin Chen turned around and went behind Li Xiu Ning, using his hand to hold her.
The corners of Lin Chen's mouth curled up into a wicked smile." I'll teach you a lesson for being dishonest!”
Li Xiuning panicked." What are you doing?!"”
"Hehe, you'll know soon enough.”Lin Chen smiled evilly.
Pa!
This crisp sound shook the entire corridor.
She, the dignified Princess Ping Yang, was actually beaten by someone. This was a great humiliation!
Lin Chen! I'm going to kill you!
