After everything was done, Chen Dao walked out of the East Chamber.
This time, Cao Zhengchun didn't assign any tasks to Chen Dao. Instead, he asked him to see if there were any suitable tasks in the East Hall and let him choose one himself.
After leaving the East Chamber, Chen Dao prepared to return home.
There were still several young ladies waiting for him at home!
However, at this moment, a voice came from behind."Lord Chen, Lord Chen, wait!”
Chen Dao stopped in his tracks and looked back. He realized that the person chasing after him was Big Boss Scalp Xiaotian.
Pi Xiaotian came over with a smile and said to Chen Dao,""Lord Chen, you've been appreciated by the superintendent and are deeply indebted to him. We should keep in touch in the future.”
Seeing him like this, Chen Dao knew that this guy was trying to curry favor with him.
"Sure."
Chen Dao smiled faintly.
However, he quickly changed the topic and said,"But it's getting late now. I still have to rush back to rest.”
"Good, good, good. Lord Chen, please go ahead.”
Pi Xiaotian bowed and retreated to the side.
After bidding farewell to him, Chen Dao continued to walk home.
However, after walking for a short distance, he saw another person appear on the roadside. That person was wearing the uniform of the West Military District.
It seemed that he was the subordinate of the West Military Governor, Yu Huatian.
This person walked over and handed a brocade box to Chen Dao with both hands."Lord Chen, this is a little gift from our superintendent. Please accept it as a form of respect.”
The people from the West Hall were waiting for him at this late hour. It seemed that they took this matter very seriously.
"Help me tell Yu Huatian that I will accept his gift.”
Chen Dao did not refuse anyone.
It seemed that after his reputation rose this time, everyone planned to get close to him.
After the people from the West Hall left, more people came one after another. They were all subordinates of various high-ranking officials and nobles, or they were simply the other party who came personally.
Whether it was the East or West Military Department, or other dignitaries.
As long as one was slightly more well-informed, they would know that Chen Dao had already ascended to the heavens in a single step!
This also filled Chen Dao's heart with a refreshing feeling!
The life of a villain was really enjoyable. There were all kinds of gifts!
Soon, Chen Dao returned to his residence.
Although it was already late at night, he could clearly see that some of the lights in the rooms were still on. Why weren't they sleeping?
Chen Dao cursed in his heart.
Chen Dao was kind enough to these people. Anyway, his residence was not small, so he arranged a room for each of them.
Then, he arrived outside Invincible East's room.
Invincible East knocked on the door and opened it. When she saw Chen Dao standing at the door, her expression suddenly became very ugly.
"This is the gift I received today.”
Chen Dao handed over a bag.
"Humph, he's just a lackey of the East Chamber.”
Invincible East turned around and returned to his room, his face full of disdain.
"So, you slept with a lackey?”
Chen Dao was not angry and asked directly.
"Shameless!"
Invincible East cursed," Let me go if you dare!”
Chen Dao didn't answer, but looked out the window.
Shua!
In just an instant, a sound of breaking through the air rang out, and his figure appeared outside.
At the same time, his sword pierced through the air.
A sword Qi swept out and swept towards a certain spot in the courtyard.
Bang!
A muffled sound erupted, and a figure was swept by Chen Dao's sword qi, falling to the ground out of thin air.
"Linghu Chong, I let you off, yet you still dare to come and find me!”
Chen Dao recognized this person's identity at a glance.
It was Linghu Chong, who had been knocked off the cliff by Zuo Lengchan and the others.
After Linghu Chong fell off the cliff, he did not die. Instead, he was supported by the trees growing on the cliff.
Under the cushion of the trees, he finally fell into a river and saved his life.
In the following period of time, Linghu Chong had been secretly recuperating and asking for news about Chen Dao.
Actually, he didn't have to deliberately ask.
This was because it had spread everywhere in the martial world!
Therefore, Linghu Chong had tracked Chen Dao all the way to the capital. He hoped to eliminate Chen Dao and avenge his fellow disciples of the Huashan Sect.
However, he did not expect to be discovered by the other party just as he infiltrated Chen Dao's residence.
This also shocked Linghu Chong at Chen Dao's strength and martial arts. Those rumors were indeed true!
"You let go of my master's wife, junior sister, and Miss Dongfang!”
Ling Huchong got up from the ground and said sternly.
"What gave you the illusion that you could snatch someone from me? Did you hurt your head when you fell off the cliff? Linghu Chong, you shouldn't have come!"
Chen Dao disagreed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Dao unsheathed his sword and stabbed it at Linghu Chong.
He didn't even use any fancy moves. It was just a sword.
In an instant, Linghu Chong was caught off guard.
In the blink of an eye, a white streak of light pierced through the night sky and pierced into his abdomen!
Instantly, blood spurted.
Linghu Chong was severely injured!
As for him, he could not even defend himself.
At this moment, Linghu Chong's eyes were filled with disbelief.
This junior brother of his, who was once ignorant, incompetent, and lustful, had actually improved his martial arts to such an extent.
At least Zongshi realm pinnacle, or even half a step into the great grandmaster realm!
"Linghu Chong, since you've come to die today, I can't let you go.”
Chen Dao raised the sword in his hand high. He planned to take this person's life with one strike.
"No!"
Just as the sword was about to land, two voices suddenly rang out at the same time.
Ning Zhongze and Dongfang Bubai ran out at the same time.
They heard the noise outside and rushed over, hoping that Chen Dao would show mercy and not kill Linghu Chong.
"Master's wife, Miss Dongfang, don't beg others for me, especially this kind of person. It's just death. I'm not afraid of anything!”
Linghu Chong panted heavily, not willing to be outdone.
He would not show weakness in front of someone like Chen Dao. Even if he died, he would not beg for mercy from Chen Dao!
Hearing this, Chen Dao snorted.
He swung his sword and pierced through Linghu Chong's Dantian.
This strike had crippled Linghu Chong's cultivation.
After suffering from his previous injuries, Linghu Chong could barely support himself.
However, this sword strike had crippled his cultivation and rendered Linghu Chong a cripple. His body suddenly swayed before he finally fell to the ground.
"Chong-er!"
Ning Zhongze exclaimed.
When Dongfang Bubai saw this, he was also concerned.
They all wanted to go forward, but in the next second, they met Chen Dao's gaze.
After doing all this, Chen Dao looked at the two people behind him and revealed a mysterious smile.
"I can let him live, but…" he said calmly.
As he spoke, Chen Dao approached Invincible East and Ning Zhongze.
Now, all their martial arts had been sealed, and they could only submit to Chen Dao.
Moreover…
Linghu Chong's life was hanging by a thread.
They had no choice.
After a long silence, the two finally nodded with tears in their eyes.
Linghu Chong, on the other hand, was at a loss.
He didn't know what Chen Dao said to the two of them, nor did he know why the two of them nodded.
At this moment, Chen Dao turned around and looked at Linghu Chong.
Only Linghu Chong was left alone, lying in a pool of blood on the ground, staring blankly at everything!
