Chapter Summary
But to his surprise, Xiao Chen shook his head bluntly and said, "Sorry, I still have some things to do and can't have dinner with the Second Prince." After saying that, Xiao Chen turned around, leaving Long Nan with a blue and purple face behind him.

Xiao Chen?
When Long Nan heard Xiao Chen introduce himself, he was shocked. He had heard of this name a long time ago and even sent people to recruit him, but failed.
It is said that he came to the Central Region in recent days and caused quite a stir. Seven of the ten major families have surrendered to him. If this person supports him, then his chances of obtaining the throne are almost 100%.
Although the martial arts strength of the ten major families is not as strong as that of the three religions and four sects, their influence on the court and political situation is far beyond the reach of the three religions and four sects, which are purely martial arts forces.
So, when he heard that it was Xiao Chen standing in front of him, he immediately put on a smile.
He bowed to Xiao Chen and said with a smile, "So it's Master Xiao Chen! My apologies!"
It was really a case of searching for something everywhere but finding it, but it turned out to be something without any effort. I actually met Xiao Chen here.
Long Nan's guards also knew Xiao Chen's name, so after hearing his name, they immediately retreated behind Long Nan and looked at Xiao Chen curiously.
Long Nan was very attentive, but Xiao Chen's reaction was very flat. He looked at him and said calmly, "So it's the Second Prince! Xiao Chen has heard a lot about you."
Long Nan didn't notice Xiao Chen's indifference. He still walked up to him with great joy and said attentively, "Mr. Xiao Chen, I have wanted to meet you for a long time, but I never had the chance. Today I am fortunate to meet you. Why don't we have a simple meal at my house and have a good chat? How about it?"
Long Nan is a proud and arrogant person. Since he was born, no one has ever dared to refuse him, so he feels that he has already humbled himself and there is no reason for Xiao Chen to refuse him.
But to his surprise, Xiao Chen shook his head bluntly and said, "Sorry, I still have some things to do and can't have dinner with the Second Prince."
After saying that, Xiao Chen turned around, leaving Long Nan with a blue and purple face behind him. He felt so embarrassed to be rejected in person like this.
"Xiao Chen!"
His self-esteem was severely hurt, so Long Nan couldn't help but call out to Xiao Chen sharply. The dozen or so guards behind him rushed forward and surrounded Xiao Chen, Shen Lang, and the six sword slaves.
There were only three people in the Iron Blood Dynasty royal family who dared to let their subordinates draw sharp weapons and commit crimes in front of the Golden Palace. They were Long Nan, Long Bei and Long Xue.
Faced with the siege of more than a dozen people, the Six Sword Slaves did not take action immediately. Shen Lang also casually waved his folding fan and watched the development of the situation quietly.
These guards generally only have the cultivation level of Martial Lord. Even if the seven of them do not take action, Xiao Chen alone can kill them all, so they are not panicked at all.
Xiao Chen paused, turned around and squinted at Long Nan and asked, "Second Prince, what do you mean by this?"
Long Nan's expression returned to calm, though not as attentive as before. He folded his hands behind his back and said calmly, "I sincerely invited Master Xiao Chen, but you refused so decisively? That's too much of a disrespect for me, don't you think?"
If it were somewhere else, Long Nan would definitely not choose to confront Xiao Chen head-on. After all, Xiao Chen is a ruthless man with powerful subordinates, and he dare not provoke him easily.
But he also knew that Xiao Chen's own strength was very limited. This was the Iron Blood Dynasty palace, his own territory. Xiao Chen only brought a few people with him. He could do whatever he wanted to him.
The Six Sword Slaves were very famous, and Long Nan naturally knew them. He knew that they were all powerful Martial Kings, but there were also many Martial Kings in the palace, and even Martial Lords. He was not afraid of the mere Six Sword Slaves.
As for Shen Lang, he was simply ignored by him. There was no aura of cultivation on Shen Lang. He guessed that he was just a civil official following Xiao Chen, so he didn't take him seriously.
The reason why Long Nan's attitude suddenly changed after Xiao Chen rejected his recruitment was that just at that moment, he thought of a vicious plan.
Since Xiao Chen dared to enter the palace so brazenly, he had to seize this opportunity.
If Xiao Chen is willing to cooperate with him, it would be the best. If Xiao Chen is not willing to cooperate with him, it would be better to get rid of him here.
He was very clear that the ten major families were not truly loyal to Xiao Chen, but were only forced to do so by force. Therefore, if Xiao Chen was killed by him, the ten major families would break away from Xiao Chen's control and become grateful to him instead.
Then, in the fight for the throne, they will stand on my side, and my goal will still be achieved.
As for the revenge of Xiao Chen's subordinates, the royal family's martial arts ancestors will naturally take responsibility.
Long Nan calculated everything very well, but unfortunately he made one mistake. He underestimated Xiao Chen's strength.
Not to mention that he couldn't kill Xiao Chen today, even if he succeeded, Xiao Chen's subordinates would be able to destroy the Iron Blood Dynasty three or four times.
Seeing Long Nan's attitude change, Xiao Chen also restrained his smile and said calmly: "I said, I have important matters to deal with, and it is not convenient for me to be with the Second Prince."
Swish! Swish! Swish!
As soon as Xiao Chen finished speaking, Long Nan gave him an imperceptible wink, and then the guards drew their swords at the same time and pointed them at Xiao Chen.
Although they were all afraid of Xiao Chen, they dared not disobey their master's orders.
laugh!
But the moment they drew their swords, the six sword slaves attacked at the same time. The long swords in their hands cut off the weapons in the hands of these people and took their lives.
In the blink of an eye, Longnan became a lonely man.
"Who dares to act so presumptuously in the imperial palace?"
"There's an assassin! Quick, save the Second Prince!"
…
This is the entrance to the Golden Throne Hall, so the guarding is extremely tight. These guards can turn a blind eye when the Second Prince's subordinates use weapons, but when the Six Sword Slaves take action, they can no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb.
After Longnan's guards were killed, these palace guards immediately surrounded them. Hundreds of guards with varying levels of cultivation surrounded Xiao Chen and his companions.
A smile appeared on Long Nan's lips. Xiao Chen was doomed to die after committing a crime in public at the gate of the Golden Palace.
But before the smile on his face could fully bloom, the Six Sword Slaves had already broken through the guards' encirclement at lightning speed and put their swords on Long Nan's neck. His smile completely froze.
"Let go of the Second Prince, or you will die!"
The leader of the guards quickly waved his hand to stop his subordinates from moving forward, and instead surrounded Xiao Chen, the Six Sword Slaves, Shen Lang, and Long Nan.
"Uh...Xiao Chen, don't mess around!"
Feeling the coldness of the long sword on his neck, Long Nan's expression changed slightly and he stammered.
Xiao Chen ignored him and looked at the guards surrounding him without changing his expression. He said, "You are not qualified to negotiate with me. Let's find someone else!"
Although there are many guards, their cultivation is very ordinary. The leader of the guards is only at the Perfect Martial Sect level. Xiao Chen is too lazy to waste time talking to these minions.
A trace of anger appeared on the face of the head guard. Just as he was about to speak, a voice that was extremely pleasant but also frightening to him suddenly came from behind.
"Everyone, step back. You have nothing to do here!"
Even Long Nan's expression changed slightly when he heard this voice, and he thought to himself: Why is she here?
