Chapter 440: Chapter 425 Despicable

Li Yuechan looked anxious.

Not long ago, she had tricked Long Chen by claiming her memory had been restored.

So at this moment, Long Chen did not believe her at all.

"Go back, don’t try to deceive me with these despicable tricks. I’m not falling for it. If you really want to kill me, come at me openly," Long Chen said seriously.

"How can I make you believe me?" Li Yuechan said frantically, "Long Chen, my dad made my mom serve that old man—you know what kind of ’serving’ I’m talking about. I’ve told you all this; what more will it take to convince you?"

Upon hearing this, Long Chen finally believed Li Yuechan’s words.

"Logically speaking, if the Chu Royal Mansion had managed to invite a capable person to intervene, you should be happy. Why have you come to find me? Isn’t it better to remove me? Isn’t that what you’ve always wanted?"

Long Chen looked at Li Yuechan with suspicion.

"I have a strong premonition that the resurrected old monster is a terribly wicked demon. He will not only ruin you but also destroy my family. That’s why I’m here. My parents are caught in a terrible obsession and can’t snap out of it. Can you help me so we can take down that old monster together?"

Li Yuechan stared at Long Chen, very nervous, afraid he would refuse.

Contrary to Li Yuechan’s expectations, Long Chen agreed without any hesitation.

"Okay, I’ll help you, but first you go back and find out more about the situation, like what realm that old monster is in. Ask more details so I can also prepare," Long Chen said.

"Alright, let’s keep in touch."

Li Yuechan turned and left, heading straight back to the mansion.

The expression on Long Chen’s face grew grave.

Chu Ling resurrecting a fossil. Long Chen had never expected such a thing to happen in reality.

No wonder Chu Ling, knowing well that Long Chen could destroy his Chu Royal Mansion, still dared to provoke him repeatedly.

After pondering for a while, Long Chen called Ancestor Xia to inform him of the situation.

However, Ancestor Xia’s information turned out to be even more well-informed than Long Chen’s.

"Do you know what he used in exchange for resurrecting that old monster?" Ancestor Xia asked Long Chen.

"Please enlighten me," Long Chen said.

"He lured nine hundred boys and girls, using the lives of nine hundred people as a price to resurrect two, using such extreme and cruel means, angering both humans and gods. Long Chen, no matter the cost, you must destroy these two old monsters," Ancestor Xia said gravely.

"And what about King Chu?" Long Chen asked.

There was silence on the phone for a moment before a voice came through, "You handle it as you see fit."

"Alright."

Long Chen hung up and rushed towards the Chu Royal Mansion.

He could not afford to wait for Li Yuechan’s information; the sooner this matter was resolved, the better.

...

Meanwhile, when Li Yuechan rushed back to the Chu Royal Mansion, Han Min and that old monster had just emerged from a room.

At that moment, Han Min clearly looked worn out, with a scar visible on his face.

Chu Ling carefully attended to the robed old man, fearing that any small mistake would backfire.

King Chu was acting so humbly, and this made Li Yuechan frown deeply.

The robed old man, squinting his eyes, sensed someone approaching and immediately opened his eyes, looking at Li Yuechan.

The moment he clearly saw Li Yuechan’s face, the eyes of the robed old man brightened, "This girl is good, a rare beauty in the human world."

"Elder, she... she is my daughter. She is young and naive," Chu Ling hastily said.

The robed old man frowned and said sternly, "King Chu, do you still want to kill Long Chen? Do you still want the chance to reign supreme? If so, you’d better be smart."

Hearing this, Chu Ling was shaken.

Having come this far, he couldn’t bear to give up.

Thinking of his daughter, who had already married and lived with someone for a long time, presumably having quite some experience.

With this in mind, Chu Ling whispered to Li Yuechan, "Yuechan, please bear with this hardship."

"Dad, how could you do this?" Li Yuechan looked at Chu Ling in disbelief.

"For the future of our Chu Royal Mansion, Yuechan, sacrifices must be made. Once I ascend the throne, you will be the Princess of Great Xia, and everything happening now will go unrecorded," Chu Ling said gravely.

"Ridiculous." Li Yuechan’s eyes welled with tears, "I’d rather die than agree."

Slap!

Chu Ling slapped Li Yuechan’s face, roaring, "If you continue being foolish, I will let the elder take you away directly. Whether you are dragged to his room or go willingly, choose one."

"Yuechan, just listen, accompany the elder for a bit. He’s very powerful and gentle," Han Min also hurriedly said, continuously winking at Li Yuechan, reminding her.

"Chu Ling, I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person. Having a father like you is a disgrace, and you too, you don’t deserve to be a mother. I finally see clearly now. Long Chen was right all along, and it was always you who slandered him," Li Yuechan said, on the verge of breaking down.

Chu Ling’s eyes darkened, and he turned to address the robed old man, "Elder, please take her away. As long as you are willing to help me, I, Chu Ling, am willing to pay any price."

"Very well said, you’re very practical, ruthless. I like it, haha," the robed old man said. As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed toward Li
