"You're extraordinary."
The old emperor looked solemn. His deep voice echoed in the hall, full of majesty.
"Your Majesty, you flatter me."
Jiang Chen said calmly. This old emperor seemed to be a terrifying man. He must have been invincible in the past. Even though he was in his twilight years and heavily injured, he was still as powerful as before.
The old emperor, Lin Zhuo, had sharp eyes. He knew that Jiang Chen wasn't afraid of him. His arrogance and confidence were innate. He was only a Star Lord at the Seventh Sky, but he was so determined that Mu Tianheng and the others were willing to be behind him. Even a half-step Star Emperor was serving him. How could he be ordinary?
"Father, this is my teacher. If it weren't for Teacher Jiang Chen, I would have died in the hands of the Demon Empress of the Feather Clan. Teacher has gone through fire and water for the Lin Kingdom. He's a great benefactor to the human race. He's the most important teacher in my life. He killed that cunning Demon Empress of the Feather Clan with his own hands."
Lin Tianlin looked at Jiang Chen with great respect. That kind of worship wasn't just the respect a student had for his teacher, but also the admiration he had for the strong.
The old emperor's eyes flickered. He knew very well that his son was arrogant and insufferably arrogant. In terms of both literary and military strategy, he was one in a million. To be able to convince him wholeheartedly, he had to be a dragon among men.
"She's dead?"
Lin Zhuo murmured. His eyes were filled with endless sorrow. He had always felt guilty towards his wife, Empress Lin. Back then, when he was training, he had forcefully tried to break through. It was also because he had been framed by that witch that he had fallen to such a state. However, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. That witch did not dare to fight to the death with him. Furthermore, after he had entered into a state of training, he was unable to leave for a short period of time. This made her even more unscrupulous and worse.
Now that the Demon Empress was dead, the sorrow in his heart grew stronger. As the leader of the human race and the emperor of the Lin Kingdom, he knew that he had a long way to go. He knew a thing or two about the movements of the Feather Clan over the years. Unfortunately, he was trapped here and couldn't make a breakthrough.
"Fine, fine! If the Harpy remnants died, then so be it. Mister Jiang Chen is a blessing to our Lin Country. Lin 'er praises him so highly, he must be a dragon among men. I thank you on behalf of the people of the world. "
Lin Zhuo nodded heavily. He was filled with gratitude towards Jiang Chen.
"Now that the Winged woman is dead, Father, I am worried that they will make a comeback."
Lin Tianlin said worriedly.
"As long as I'm alive, I won't let the Winged Race and the Elven Race take even half a step into the city! Those who defy my Lin Country will be killed without mercy! "
Lin Zhuo slowly stood up. He gave off the feeling of a hero in his twilight years. However, the domineering aura of great talent and strategy was nowhere to be seen.
"Cough, cough —"
"Father, are you alright?"
Lin Tianlin's expression was grave. He had already lost his mother, and he didn't want to lose his father as well. The Lin Kingdom was in a precarious situation, and the Harpies could attack them at any moment. He couldn't afford to be careless.
"I'm fine. Even if I die, I will fight the Winged Race to the end! Back then, I fought with the masters of the Winged Race for seven days and seven nights. I forced them to retreat 30,000 miles, and they didn't dare to step into the territory of the human race anymore. Even if they come again, I will not be afraid. "
Lin Zhuo's voice was low and domineering. However, Jiang Chen frowned slightly. The old emperor still had his strength, but he was approaching the end of his life. It wouldn't be easy for him to frighten the Winged Race.
"Your Majesty, you are wise. May the dragon be healthy for a thousand years!"
Mu Tianheng said loudly. Xuan Ce and Bai Bijiang also knelt on the ground. In their hearts, there was only one master. The only person in charge of the four constabularies and one camp was the emperor.
"You can leave first. I have something to say to Mister Jiang Chen."
Lin Zhuo waved his hand. They stood up and left the Imperial Mausoleum. Jiang Chen gave Da Huang and the others a look, and they also left the hall.
"Mister Jiang Chen, what do you think of my son, Tianlin?"
Lin Zhuo asked.
"He is talented and has a pure heart. He can be of great use."
Jiang Chen said.
"Mister Jiang Chen, I know that I don't have much time left. My son is still young. Can you be the teacher of the Crown Prince and assist him to rule the world?"
Lin Zhuo stared at Jiang Chen without blinking his eyes and said sincerely.
"I am not from Planet Chi Xia. I will leave one day. I don't dare to be the teacher of the Crown Prince. Your Majesty, you can rest assured. I am not interested in power or wealth. I only want to find my true self."
Jiang Chen smiled faintly and shook his head. His heart was as still as water when it came to power. Even in the Divine World, he had never been greedy for it. Let alone in this Crimson Afterglow Planet, it was just a passing cloud to him. He was just a passerby who wanted to find his true self. Jiang Chen smiled faintly and shook his head.
"Mister, you are really a wise man. Forgive me for being presumptuous, but what is the true self that you are looking for?"
Lin Zhuo didn't seem to want to give up and continued to ask.
As the ruler of a country, he had to make everyone follow him. He had to see through everyone's intentions. However, he couldn't see through Jiang Chen. He was only a Star Lord at the Seventh Sky, but he could make the Crown Prince trust him so wholeheartedly. One had to admit that he was indeed very capable, to the point that even Lin Zhuo was afraid of him. As an emperor, he couldn't be controlled by others. In the future, if he left, Lin Tianlin would most likely become Jiang Chen's puppet.
He was an emperor and a father. He couldn't be careless, especially when it came to such an important matter.
"What you do, I do. Parents love each other. Isn't Your Majesty trying to test me? Afraid that I will take over your position and become the Crown Prince's nightmare in the future?"
Jiang Chen said with a laugh. He had already guessed that Lin Zhuo was afraid of him. He was afraid that he would become the Lin Kingdom's downfall in the future, and Lin Tianlin would become his puppet. This worry wasn't groundless. Because from the Crown Prince's attitude towards him, as well as the fact that he killed the Feather Clan's Demon Queen, Lin Zhuo became even more suspicious of Jiang Chen. It wasn't that he was too suspicious, but as an emperor, he had to take care of the world and not be controlled by others.
Jiang Chen's words made Lin Zhuo slightly stunned. He didn't expect Jiang Chen to be so blunt. After all, he was the ruler of the Red Mid Region, the ruler of the Lin Kingdom.
"Back then, my child quietly left my wings and broke into the Eternal World alone. In order to find him, I almost traveled all over the Red Afterglow Star Boundary, but I still found nothing. In this life, even if I have to exhaust everything, I must find him. Even if it's the end of the world, I will search endlessly. "
Jiang Chen said in a low voice. His heart was filled with bitterness and mixed feelings. He wasn't angry at Lin Zhuo's suspicion. Everything was for his child. It was understandable that he was worried about his child's future. Wasn't he also worried about his son far away?
"Sir, please forgive me. I am ashamed to measure the heart of a gentleman with my own mean measure."
Lin Zhuo looked ashamed. Jiang Chen's words were from the bottom of his heart. He could see that when Jiang Chen took off the emperor's mask, the moment their eyes met, they felt the same!
