Chapter 1602: Chapter 1599: Storming the Royal Palace!
Li Chen’s sudden remark startled everyone present.
It’s widely known that the Royal Palace of the Great Wu Dynasty is a place full of hidden talents. It’s said that King Wu Badao is extremely close to reaching the realm of the Mahayana Divine Monarch, making him the strongest in the current Great Wu Dynasty.
Although Li Chen’s displayed talent is truly monstrous, the opponent he faces this time is King Wu Badao himself.
Furthermore, with Zhuge Hu and many other experts around, surrounded by wolves, if they were to truly engage in battle, neither Sun Heng nor Wang Jin believed that Li Chen could walk out of the palace alive.
Wang Jin hurriedly said, "Mr. Li, the Royal Palace is filled with masters, National Master Zhuge Hu is extremely cunning, and King Wu Badao is overwhelmingly invincible; you must be cautious and not take risks lightly!"
Li Chen’s gaze was indifferent, showing no emotional fluctuation.
"Alright, I understand!"
He replied coldly and no longer paid any attention to Wang Jin, but instead strode towards the Royal Palace.
Wang Jin wanted to persuade him further but was pulled back by Sun Heng.
"Miss, it’s useless, don’t waste your words here, quickly report to the Family Head!"
Wang Jin thought his words made sense, so she hastily nodded and said, "Yes, let’s go talk to my father!"
...
"Stop, the Royal Palace is a place of importance, unauthorized entry is not allowed. Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy!"
As Li Chen reached the palace gates, he was stopped by a group of fully armed guards.
Facing the fierce-looking soldiers, Li Chen said calmly, "I want to see your King Wu Badao and National Master Zhuge Hu; please notify them for me!"
Before Li Chen could finish his sentence, the head guard drew his flashing sword and shouted angrily, "Silence, how dare you call out the names of the King and the National Master so casually?"
Upon seeing the guard draw his sword, the other soldiers also drew their weapons and all aimed them at Li Chen.
Witnessing this scene, a sneer of disdain appeared at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth.
"Haha, since you won’t report it, don’t blame me for forcing my way in!"
After saying that, Li Chen ignored the minions and stepped boldly inside.
The head guard was enraged and shouted, "Stop, if you take another step forward, you will be killed without mercy!"
Li Chen completely ignored the guard’s angry shout and continued to stride towards the palace gates.
Seeing this, the guard became furious and ordered his men, "Capture this rascal who dares trespass the palace gates!"
With the guard’s command, more than a dozen fully armed soldiers immediately swung their weapons and charged at Li Chen.
A cold icy glint flashed in Li Chen’s deep eyes.
"Courting death!"
After uttering these two words lightly, he flung his sleeve fiercely, stirring up a violent and unmatched Gang wind.
"Puff!"
"Puff!"
"Puff!"
Though the guards were elite soldiers, in Li Chen’s eyes, they were as weak as ants, utterly incapable of resisting.
With just one encounter, they were all ravaged by the violent Gang wind, their veins shattered, and each of them coughed up blood, lying on the ground in disbelief.
The head guard was shocked, but guarding the palace gate was his duty.
He stomped his foot and swung his sword at Li Chen.
Li Chen neither dodged nor flinched but stood tall in place, allowing the guard to strike.
"Clang!"
The guard’s long sword struck Li Chen’s body, instantly erupting with the sound of a Copper Bell being struck.
Witnessing such a horrific scene, the guard was terrified.
He could not believe that his full-strength strike could not penetrate the young man’s fleshly defense, which was terrifying!
Before the guard could recover from his shock, Li Chen grinned at him, looking completely harmless.
The guard, seeing Li Chen smiling at him, smiled back.
However, in the next instant, his smile froze completely on his face.
Soon, blood gushed from his mouth like a waterfall, and his body slumped into a heap of flesh in a pool of blood.
Li Chen glanced coldly at the unfortunate guard with the corner of his eye and stepped over his corpse, striding forward.
Seeing such a terrifying scene, the remaining guards were utterly terrified, shouting, "Not good, someone is forcing their way into the Royal Palace; close the gates! Close the gates!"
After the guards frantically shouted, they rapidly gathered towards the palace gates.
Li Chen did not pursue further, instead calmly watching them scatter, shout, and close the gates.
Li Chen eyed the palace gate blocking his path, towering and imposing.
Then, he clenched his fist tightly and punched out fiercely.
The fist flew like a dragon, roaring ferociously.
The palace gate, seemingly indestructible, crumbled before Li Chen’s invincible fist like tofu in a flood, completely incapable of withstanding the force.
With just one encounter, it shattered into pieces, turning into a cloud of debris dancing in the wind.
Li Chen leapt to the highest point of the palace and calmly said, "Li Chen comes visiting; I request King Wu Badao of the Great Wu Dynasty and National Master Zhuge Hu to come out and meet!"
Li Chen’s voice, each word like thunder, echoed above the Royal Palace.
Instantly, the entire palace was thrown into chaos.
Countless Forbidden Army soldiers, armed with various weapons, surged toward Li Chen like waves.
Leading them this time was Deputy Commander Wuo Yong!
Wuo Yong held an imposing Mountain Opening Thunder Blade, its blade gleaming with cold light intertwined with threads of electricity, producing a crackling sound.
"Who dares to trespass the Royal Palace? Are you tired of living?"
After speaking, he ordered his men to advance and encircle Li Chen.
Floating in the air, Li Chen ignored the minions, merely waving his sleeve and scattering them like leaves in the wind.
Wuo Yong was shocked at heart.
Then, he shouted loudly, "Impressive young man, you have some tricks. But if you think such minor skills can cause a ruckus in the Royal Palace, you are gravely mistaken!"
After speaking, he raised his Thunder Blade sharply and shouted fiercely, "Take this!"
Before the words had fully left his mouth, the Thunder Blade in Wuo Yong’s hand tore through the air with the speed of lightning, roaring like a furious wolf, revealing sinister fangs, and charging at Li Chen.
Seeing this, a contemptuous smile instantly appeared at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth.
"Haha, with such meager skills, do you dare play with the Thunder and Lightning Technique in front of me?"
