the prince, lest he offend the esteemed prince....Until the footsteps grew closer and closer, a pair of golden silk cloud boots appeared before Hou Yushu. Knowing that the prince was standing right in...Chapter 539: The White Lotus Sect's Leader
Seeing Sanbao so openly propose such a bad idea, Li Chen glared at him without any politeness.
"What use is there in killing the holy maiden It will only drive the White Lotus sect mad, and we'll be put on the defensive. If the leader arrives too, will you even have the ability to take them both down"
If the Dharma Master and Saintess were to attend again tomorrow night, Sanshi would still not have a guarantee of protecting Li Chen completely, as he did tonight. Let alone keeping both of them there.
Realizing he had made a terrible suggestion, Saburo quickly apologized and begged for forgiveness.
"Tomorrow, there's no need for special arrangements. Since the Saintess has agreed to stay by my side for ten years, perhaps this is the best solution. The White Lotus Sect..."
Li Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "It can't be completely eradicated in a short time."
Organizations like the White Lotus Sect have suffered heavy blows recently because they took advantage of the years of natural disasters and hardships faced by the people. With widespread discontent, they quickly expanded their influence.
They grow large, their aims are big, making them easy to locate and deal with.
But if both sides were truly locked in a stalemate, and wanted to achieve such major victories again, with the core leadership of the White Lotus Sect retreating and developing in secrecy, the difficulty would undoubtedly increase.
It's like picking out mung beans from a pile of rice. The more mung beans there are, the easier it is to pick them out. As fewer and fewer mung beans remain, they hide better, making each one harder to find.
No matter what, as long as Li Chen can control the Saintess and grasp this measure well, then he will have one more powerful weapon. The sharpness of this weapon is very likely to bring Li Chen great surprises.
At the very least, Saintess's figure and appearance are pleasing to the eye even if she just stood there as a vase.
Li Chen was very pleased, so his mood also brightened considerably.
Suddenly remembering a crucial point, Li Chen said, “Is there that kind of poison I mentioned before”
The Three Treasures replied, "There is indeed a poison that can control people, but it cannot guarantee such a long time of ten years. At most, it would last for two or three years. As for the effects of taking it continuously for ten years, no one knows. Moreover, the Saintess herself is a top expert with powerful internal energy. It's hard to say how much effect the poison would have."
"Then we'll use two or three years of it, and then continue researching."
Li Chen frowned and said, "For a dignified Dongchang, you can't even come up with this You might as well retire early and give your position to Chen Tong."
After speaking, Li Chen swept his sleeves and left.
Without a hint of discontent or complaint, the Three Treasures respectfully sent Li Chen away. Then, they immediately went back to the East Factory and found the most skilled poison master to start concocting a plan.
Countless experiences had taught Sanyao deeply that serving the prince well was truly rewarding, but if things went wrong, the consequences were truly bitter.
But at this moment, on a mountain outside the city, more than fifty miles away from the East Palace, the Holy Maiden had just arrived.
Without stopping for a moment, the Saint pushed forward with all her might. When she arrived at the designated location, a towering figure resembling a demon god was already standing there.
It seems like he has been waiting for some time.
The master's skill has deepened again.
With such a loud voice, the Saint bowed slightly and said, "Holy Master."
That hulking figure, like a demon god, turned to face the holy maiden. He looked at her silently and spoke, "I want to know why you agreed to the prince's request."
"To be revered as a saint, yet forced to remain by the prince's side for ten years This is an unparalleled disgrace! In all its history, the White Lotus Sect has never endured such humiliation!"
