Chapter 157: More Uninvited Guests
Threaten me?
Li Ke narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him.
"Don't get me wrong, this is not a threat, but a fact. You did a good job. Under the negligence of Duke Violet, you developed a pretty good place. But you don't think that the Empire knows nothing, do you?"
The girl said something quite scary in a relaxed tone. She tidied her hair a little and gave Li Ke a victorious smile.
"Will you not invite me in?"
She felt that at this point, Li Ke should be able to humble himself.
but……
"As you wish."
Li Ke closed the door directly.
Are you kidding? Is he, Li Ke, made of clay?
Li Ke's level has been increasing a little slowly over the years, but that's because he has been constantly studying the controllable blood and energy power and has not been seriously leveling up or doing tasks.
But once the fight starts, the people of the Empire will be the best experience monsters!
The wind that blew away the girl's dignified hairstyle when the door was suddenly closed. The unprecedented experience made the girl feel shocked and incredible.
From childhood to adulthood, she had never been rejected like this. Even those powerful nobles, if dissatisfied with her, would only say bad things about her behind her back. They still had to abide by the rules in front of her.
"Your Highness... such a country bumpkin is not worthy of your condescension..."
A man who came over coughing began to give advice. He had a handsome appearance and a slender figure, but he looked a little sickly pale, and he was even a little shaky when he walked.
In his opinion, the princess's impulsive behavior was indeed met with malicious intent, and the person in front of him had no intention of respecting the princess at all.
"It's okay, he probably just hasn't heard of my name, don't make it difficult for him."
Celia waved her hand. Although it was impossible that there was someone in this world who had never heard of the eldest princess of the Delos Empire, she felt that Li Ke might not know about her situation.
She had this intuition.
"But Your Highness... ahem..."
The man who just walked over wanted to say something, but he couldn't help coughing. He tried hard to straighten his back, but he couldn't do it.
"Nothing, dear."
Celia looked at her husband who was bending over beside her and kept hitting him on the back, trying to make him stop coughing, but unfortunately, the man did not stop coughing, and instead a bright red color appeared on his white gloves.
She sighed slightly. Her husband was an important official in the empire and respected her very much. Until now, he always called her "Your Highness Princess" instead of "dear".
Moreover, his family can also provide him with a lot of political resources.
but……
But he is not a qualified husband.
He was weak and sickly, and it seemed that because of his weak body, his self-esteem was a little fragile. This time, I helped my father with some things and told him to just stay at home and recuperate, but he insisted on coming with me, which made his health worse.
She had just come to see Li Ke in person after seeing that Mrs. Violet's complexion suddenly improved. She wanted to reach a cooperation with Li Ke and let Li Ke treat her husband.
However, her husband did not understand her thoughts.
Sighing slightly, Celia raised her hand, and immediately two more guards appeared and helped her husband up.
"Take him down to rest."
Unfortunately, just as he finished his words, her husband, who was coughing continuously, suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something. He raised his head and spoke to a guard behind him.
"No, Celia! I'm fine! I can protect you and be a good husband! Linus! Go teach that kid a lesson!"
Celia looked at her husband in astonishment and wanted to speak out to stop him, but it was too late.
A man covered in full armor behind her husband immediately drew his sword, and an ominous dark aura suddenly enveloped the swordsman.
What was disturbing was that a strange red light flashed inside the swordsman's helmet.
At this moment, everyone noticed something was wrong, especially Celia. She was shocked to find that after her husband shouted this sentence, a crazy smile appeared on his face and a black aura emanated from his body.
"Honey?"
She asked subconsciously, but her husband seemed not to hear her call and continued talking to himself.
"That's right, Celia. I can protect you. I'm not a loser... We can live happily together... Our son can become the emperor..."
The more he spoke, the sicker his expression became, and the more black aura emanated from him.
"Quickly control His Highness! Don't hurt him!"
This change immediately made everyone realize that something was wrong. The guards around Celia immediately rushed forward and tried to control Celia's husband.
"Quickly control His Highness! Don't let him hurt Her Highness the Princess! Don't hurt him either!"
However, it was too late.
"The Chosen One has appeared. The God of Chaos will be unstoppable!"
The swordsman, whose whole body was shrouded in black, suddenly roared. He laughed loudly, and a large amount of black aura suddenly emerged from his body. The sword in his hand chopped down fiercely, cutting off the three guards in front of him. The armor on his body seemed to come alive, and instantly grew countless spikes.
These spikes burst out suddenly, piercing all the surrounding guards and splattering their blood on the wall.
Celia opened her eyes wide and watched the captain of the guards who was standing in front of her slowly fall down, his face splattered with his blood.
If her captain of the guards had not used his body to block her, her head would have exploded like a watermelon falling to the ground.
However, there was no next captain of the guard.
"Celia, my Celia..."
Her husband smiled and stretched out his hand, which was slowly turning into spikes, towards her, making her feel the fear she had never experienced since she was born. She subconsciously wanted to retreat, but bumped directly into the wall.
In front of her was her husband slowly approaching, and a monster with armor covered in spikes.
No, to be exact, that was no longer her husband, because her husband would not be a monster with a face that could be split in the middle in a cross, revealing countless fangs!
"A pretender... How is this possible..."
She was well-informed and recognized these monsters, but this did not improve her situation.
The black swordsman raised his sword mercilessly and chopped it off at Celia's head. Celia stared at the sword falling towards her in a daze without closing her eyes.
Just when she thought she was going to die, there was a sudden vibration behind her, and then a strong arm suddenly appeared and grabbed the heavy sword.
Blood flowed from the strong arm and dripped onto Celia's face, but at this moment, she only felt an unimaginable sense of security.
The next moment, the wall behind her was suddenly torn apart by a huge hand, and then the man who looked like General Kazan appeared from it. He used his other hand to hold her in his arms and let her lean on his solid muscles.
A steady and reliable voice came from under the helmet.
"Hold on, it's going to be a little bumpy."
Li Ke looked at the two monsters in front of him coldly, but in his heart...
"Michael, are you blind?! How could there be a pretender here?!"
He is swearing.
