I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 343 Because without comparison there is no harm! (Please subscribe, please vote with monthly tickets)

Only those who have been hit by Li Chen know that he had the ability to kill him with a single slap, but he has already stopped, leaving him feeling pain without damaging his tendons and bones.

Being able to do that proves that the opponent's strength is far superior to one's own.

After catching his breath, General Longjiao brought his sister to Li Chen.

He looked at Li Chen, wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't.

Then he sighed, placed Ao Jiao's hand in Li Chen's hand, and said, "Since you have such strength, I can entrust my sister to you with peace of mind, but that doesn't mean I approve of you."

After saying this, he gestured for the sea creature soldiers beside him to leave.

However, an adjutant pointed at Ao Jiao inappropriately and said, "General, didn't His Majesty want us to see the princess?"

Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped by the Dragon Horn General.

"What princess?"

Seeing the furious Dragon Horn General, the lieutenant realized what had happened and said he hadn't seen anything. The other soldiers, seeing their lieutenant being beaten, also pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Then General Longjiao led his soldiers away in a grand procession.

Once he was out of sight, Ao Jiao realized what had happened and immediately pulled her hand back from Li Chen's, her cheeks flushed.

The situation just now was indeed a bit awkward; it seems my brother mistook Li Chen for Jun Zhantian.

Having calmed down, Ao Jiao leaned down to Li Chen and said apologetically, "That's my brother. Thank you for showing mercy. He didn't know I was helping Jun Zhantian, which is why he said those things."

"It's alright, as long as I don't cause you any trouble," Li Chen said with great courtesy.

This sentence can cause Ao Jiao's affection for him to increase dramatically.

Because without comparison, there is no harm.

Ao Jiao committed such a grave mistake within the clan for Jun Zhantian's sake, yet Jun Zhantian didn't take it seriously. This was something she did willingly, without any regrets.

But Li Chen's actions made her realize that there were men who could be so mature and considerate of her.

As she thought about it, she gradually realized that Li Chen's strength was definitely enough to beat her brother. If she wasn't afraid of causing trouble, she would have already taken action.

It turns out that Li Chen had already considered so much for himself.

The more she realized how good Li Chen was to her, the more mixed her feelings became.

She initially followed Jun Zhantian out of impulse and enthusiasm, but once that impulse subsided and she calmed down, she realized that following Jun Zhantian was not the life she wanted.

But there was no other way; I'd already gone along with it, so I had to bite the bullet and go on.

If Li Chen hadn't appeared, she might have thought Jun Zhantian was alright, since Jun Zhantian's strength, appearance, and status were already among the top of his generation.

Being by his side gives me prestige, and I enjoy the envious glances from others.

But now Li Chen has arrived, delivering a devastating blow. Not only does he completely overwhelm Jun Zhantian in every aspect, but he also surpasses Jun Zhantian in terms of character and conduct. Ao Jiao will definitely think that Jun Zhantian is just so-so.

With mixed feelings, Ao Jiao led everyone into the sea tribe city and arrived near the Dragon Palace.

The Dragon Palace is similar to the royal palace of the human race, and its security is extremely tight.

The reason she was able to take Jun Zhantian out last time was because they passed through the forbidden area of ​​the Dragon Palace, which was located near the Dragon Palace.

There are fewer guards in the forbidden area, and there is a secret passage that only Ao Jiao knows about.

Ao Jiao led Li Chen and his group along the dark path overgrown with coral, skillfully avoiding the Dragon Whale Guards patrolling the outer perimeter of the forbidden area.

The entrance to the forbidden area is covered with poisonous corals that flash a dangerous red light; even the slightest touch will trigger a deadly poison.

Ao Jiao took out a conch shell from her bosom and gently blew on it. The poisonous corals automatically parted, revealing a secluded path.

"Follow me closely, there are hidden mechanisms under every stone slab here," Ao Jiao warned in a low voice.

The group followed her cautiously.

Li Chen noticed that the walls on both sides were covered with ancient runes, faintly radiating powerful spiritual energy fluctuations.

Percy accidentally stepped off course, and a crack suddenly appeared in the ground, from which several gleaming bone spikes shot out. Li Chen reacted quickly, pulling her back as the bone spikes grazed her skirt.

Ao Jiao quickly came over to check if Po Xi was injured.

Seeing that everything was alright, she explained, "This is the 'Thousand Bone Formation' set up by the dragon ancestors. Further ahead, there is an even more dangerous 'Soul-Devouring Vortex'."

This time, Po Xi was more careful, but she stayed close to Li Chen, which made her feel safe.

After passing through numerous restrictions, the view before us suddenly opened up.

The magnificent Dragon Palace was within reach. Two rows of sea shark guards, clad in silver scale armor and holding tridents, stood ramrod straight in front of the palace gate.

Inside the palace gates, sea creature maids dressed in gauze skirts moved back and forth, the pearls on their foreheads swaying gently with their steps, and glowing seaweed belts tied around their waists.

Ao Jiao led the group in through a side door and headed straight for her bedroom.

A palace maid who was arranging coral ornaments saw her and was so startled that she almost dropped the jade plate she was holding: "Princess! What happened?"

"Shh~"

Ao Jiao gestured for her to be quiet, then helped her stabilize the jade plate, thus preventing an accident.

This is a palace maid I grew up with since childhood; she is very loyal.

After comforting her for a while, Ao Jiao asked, "How is my mother?"

The palace maid's eyes reddened: "The Dragon Mother has been banished to the Cold Palace by His Majesty the Dragon King."

This was actually expected; my brother had already mentioned it earlier.

Ao Jiao's face paled slightly, feeling somewhat guilty. If it weren't for her, her mother wouldn't have acted this way.

"And what about my father?"

"His Majesty left three days ago with his personal guards, saying he was going to meet some distinguished human guests in the outer sea."

According to the palace maid, the old Dragon King went to other sea areas and was not in this region.

Li Chen and his group exchanged bewildered glances, remembering that the people from the Guixu Wuyai Sect had also said they were going to meet some sea creatures.

Is it because of this?
No one knows what treasure Jun Zhantian obtained from the sea tribe that could entice so many sea tribe kings to personally come out of their way.

However, he is a chosen one, which is normal. Even if he doesn't know what is valuable, he can still get treasures by simply picking them up.

Ao Jiao bit her lower lip and turned to Li Chen, saying, "I need to go to the Cold Palace to see my mother first."

Li Chen was slightly taken aback. Why are you asking me? I'm not the emperor here, and this place isn't under my jurisdiction for the time being.

Since Ao Jiao had already asked, Li Chen nodded in agreement, treating the place as his own home.

The Cold Palace is located in the most remote corner of the Dragon Palace, with few guards along the way.

With several trusted palace maids leading the way, Ao Jiao easily bypassed the spies and arrived at the entrance of the Cold Palace.

Pushing open the heavy seashell door, a chill rushed out.

The interior of the hall was simply furnished, with only a few dim pearl lamps providing illumination.

The Dragon Mother was leaning against the cold jade couch when she heard the noise and slowly raised her head.

She wore a plain white silk dress, the fabric as thin as a cicada's wing, which vaguely revealed her voluptuous figure, a sight to behold.

Sea creatures live in the sea and don't wear much clothing.

Although imprisoned here, Daenerys Targaryen still maintains her noble demeanor. Her full breasts rise and fall slightly with her breath, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes only add to her mature charm.

What is most striking is the golden dragon scale on her forehead, which radiates a faint glow even in the dim light.

Upon seeing Ao Jiao, the Dragon Mother stood up in surprise, her body suddenly surging with emotion.

She approached Ao Jiao with concern and asked, "Jiao'er, why are you back?"
