Chapter 91: What If I Am Nie Chen?
The Thousand Flowers Sect, the largest sect in the vicinity of Wanping City, was a force to be reckoned with.
Moreover, the Thousand Flowers Sect was the biggest supporter of the Imperial Court, and it was secretly protected by the Imperial Court.
In recent years, the sect’s power had grown significantly, and it had gained a good reputation among the people.
At this moment, the news of the Righteous Sect’s grand meeting, convened by the Thousand Flowers Sect, had attracted many people to the grand hall.
The streets were crowded, and the area was packed with people.
Following the crowd, Nie Chen arrived at the grand hall and suddenly jumped up to the third floor, where many cultivators were gathered.
“Wow, brother, your technique is impressive,” a cultivator said in surprise.
However, he quickly furrowed his brow and asked, “But I’ve never seen you before. Which sect are you from?”
Nie Chen casually bowed his hand and replied, “I’m a disciple of the Youming Sect, and I’ve come to attend the Righteous Sect’s grand meeting.”
The cultivator looked puzzled and said, “Youming Sect? I’ve never heard of a sect with that name in our Imperial Court.”
Nie Chen’s smile became strange, and he asked, “Are you sure you want to continue talking?”
The cultivator was taken aback and asked, “Why can’t I talk?”
Suddenly, he sensed something was off and pointed at Nie Chen in shock, “Wait, you’re not a Demonic Sect cultivator who has infiltrated our ranks, are you?”
The cultivator’s heart was racing, and he tried to retreat, but Nie Chen’s figure flashed like a ghost, and he felt a sudden pain in the back of his neck.
In an instant, everything went black.
“Talking too much can be fatal,” Nie Chen sighed and threw the cultivator’s limp body into a corner, covering it with a chair.
The other cultivators were more discreet and didn’t dare to approach Nie Chen.
Nie Chen easily blended in with the crowd of Righteous Sect cultivators.
At this moment, the grand meeting convened by the Thousand Flowers Sect’s Xiao Changlao officially began.
Xiao Changlao gave a passionate speech, saying, “The Thousand Flowers Sect has a history of over a thousand years, and it has grown from a small sect to its current size. Do you know why?”
Someone shouted, “It’s because the Thousand Flowers Sect serves the country and cares about the people!”
Xiao Changlao nodded and said, “That’s right! It’s because of the Imperial Court’s favor, especially the Crown Prince’s, that our sect has been able to develop and grow.”
He then asked, “What should we do about Nie Chen, who has offended our Crown Prince?”
“Kill him!” someone shouted.
“Right! Killing Nie Chen is not only a matter of loyalty to the Crown Prince but also a matter of justice for the entire Imperial Court and the people,” Xiao Changlao said.
The crowd became agitated, and the shouting continued.
Although Xiao Changlao’s strength was only at the Xuanjing peak, he was still a respected figure.
However, Nie Chen, who was hiding in the crowd, heard Xiao Changlao’s low voice, “With this, the Crown Prince’s dragon blood array will be further advanced.”
Nie Chen’s brow furrowed, and he thought, “Shu Zi’an’s dragon blood array?”
He had thought that the Righteous Sect cultivators were just brainwashed by the Crown Prince and were blowing hot air in front of the crowd.
However, it seemed that there was more to it than met the eye.
“Kill Nie Chen!” the crowd shouted.
Suddenly, Nie Chen raised his hand and interrupted the shouting, “Wait, I have a question.”
The crowd fell silent, and Xiao Changlao looked at Nie Chen with displeasure, “What question do you have? We’ve already decided to kill Nie Chen.”
Nie Chen smiled and asked, “What if I say that I’m Nie Chen?”
Xiao Changlao’s expression changed, and he said, “If I see Nie Chen, I won’t hesitate to kill him personally.”
The crowd cheered, and Nie Chen’s eyes flashed with a cold glint, “What if I’m right in front of you, Xiao Changlao? What will you do then?”
