Chapter 155 Hongmen Banquet

Chapter 155 Hongmen Banquet

"Hehe, accept the reality that you can't hurt me at all." After saying that, his body floated towards Leng Yiyao. Leng Yiyao wanted to resist but the bracelet on his wrist emitted a faint golden light, and the golden light formed a thin protective shield in front of him. Seeing that his wrist was so effective, Leng Yiyao raised his wrist and moved forward, trying to drive away the black shadow.

Seeing this, the phantom sneered and said, "Hmph, you think you can stop me with such a trivial trick?" He spit out a breath of black air at the bracelet on Leng Yiyao's wrist. The black air passed through the protective shield and directly invaded the bracelet. The originally white bracelet was corroded by the black air, and a few black lines appeared.

The moment the black line was formed, the surrounding golden light immediately became dim. Leng Yiyao was shocked when he saw this and wanted to escape, but the phantom pounced directly towards his body and sank into his body in an instant.

At this moment, Leng Yiyao's eyes emitted a black light and then disappeared.

Zhou Chen stayed in the Demon Suppression Division for a while in the morning, and went back home as there was nothing to do. After returning home, Leng Yiyao had already prepared meals. Since Zhou Chen usually only stayed in the Demon Suppression Division for the morning and would come back in the afternoon, Leng Yiyao would usually prepare meals at noon.

Zhou Chen took a bite of the meat and his expression changed, "Yiyao cooked the meat well today."

Leng Yiyao smiled happily and said, "If you like it, eat more," and then she picked up a piece of meat and put it in his bowl.

In the afternoon, Li Mu sent another invitation. Zhou Chen took a look at it and threw it aside impatiently. Leng Yiyao stepped forward, picked it up and took a look at it, "Brother Chen, don't you want to go?"
"This guy must be looking for me with bad intentions. This is a Hongmen Banquet."

"Maybe he wants to make peace with you. Brother Chen, I think you should go. If he really wants to make peace, you can also take the opportunity to blackmail him for some money."

Zhou Chen thought about it and it made sense. He had killed so many of his masters, and his Li family must have been seriously damaged. It was very likely that they wanted to negotiate peace with me at this time.

"In that case, I'll go meet him tonight."

"Brother Chen, I'll go with you."

Zhou Chen directly refused, "No, you can't go. It's too dangerous. If something happens, I won't be able to distract myself to take care of you."

Leng Yiyao was a little angry and said, "I'm already very good," and waved her fist at Zhou Chen.

"I know you are very capable, but Li Mu is very cunning. I'm afraid he will use some despicable means and we will be hard to guard against. So for safety's sake you'd better stay at home. Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Leng Yiyao pursed her lips and nodded in agreement. At night, Zhou Chen arrived at the Li family as promised. Zhou Chen was led by servants through many twists and turns in the mansion and arrived at the living room. Zhou Chen also secretly memorized the escape route.

At this time, Li Mu had been waiting in the living room for a long time. "Brother Zhou, you are here, please sit down." Zhou Chen bowed and said "Greetings, Master Li." He waited until Li Mu sat down before he sat down.

"I wonder why Master Li wants to call me here today?"
Li Mu poured him a glass of wine with a smile on his face, "It's nothing, I just think that little brother Zhou is a hero since he was young. You have such strength at such a young age. I really admire you and want to make friends with you," he said and handed the glass to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen raised his hand and said, “Please forgive me, I don’t know how to drink.”

Li Mu's facial expression changed slightly, but he suppressed it in just a moment, "It's okay, someone bring tea." Afterwards, a servant came with a pot of tea, and the wine on the table was taken away.

Li Mu picked up the tea and said, "It shouldn't be a problem now, right?"

Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Zhou Chen had to raise his cup and drink it. Then Li Mu clapped his hands. Zhou Chen thought he was going to fight, and the inner energy in his body surged instantly, ready to fight at any time. As a result, he waited for a long time and saw no action. Instead, two seductively dressed women came up and sat down beside him. Li Mu was so powerful that Zhou Chen's little action just now naturally did not escape his eyes, but he just smiled and didn't point it out.

At this time, a woman picked up a piece of meat and handed it to Zhou Chen's mouth, "Young master, come and eat."

Zhou Chen was suddenly shocked and said, "No need, I'll do it myself, you all go down."

"Sir, don't you like it?"
At this time Zhou Chen said in a cold tone, "Go down." Seeing that Zhou Chen was not pretending, Li Mu waved his hand gently. The two girls stood up, saluted and retreated.

"Why doesn't Brother Zhou like it?"
"Master Li, I'm already married, so please don't joke with me like this anymore," Li Mu then tried to get closer to her, and when the banquet was about to end, Li Mu told her the purpose of this trip.

"I wonder if Brother Zhou is interested in being a servant of my Li family. You can be a guest, and I promise I won't treat you unfairly."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Master Li, you are joking. I am already a guest of the Wang family. It would be bad if I join the Li family again."

"What's the big deal? You are a guest official, not a worshipper. You are a free person. Besides, many guests of families in the city are registered in several families."

After hearing his words, Zhou Chen cursed inwardly, "It is true that you can do that, but everyone knows that your Li family and the Wang family are not on good terms. If you let me be listed as a nominal member in your Li family, won't that make the Wang family dissatisfied with me?"

Now that he is in the Li family, it is not easy for Zhou Chen to refuse directly. It would be bad if this guy makes things difficult for him. Zhou Chen thought about it and said, "Please let me think about this carefully, sir."

"It's natural".

Afterwards, when Zhou Chen was about to say goodbye and leave, Li Mu suddenly said, "I have prepared a good room for you, Brother Zhou. You can stay here with peace of mind for the next few days. If you need anything, feel free to tell me."

After hearing his words, Zhou Chen's face darkened instantly, "Li Jiazhu, what do you mean by this? Do you want to put me under house arrest?"
Seeing Zhou Chen's gloomy face, Li Mu no longer pretended and said, "Brother Zhou, if you are willing to come to my Li family, I will welcome you with open arms. If you are not willing, I will have to inconvenience you."

After hearing his words, Zhou Chen's internal energy instantly burst out, "Do you think you can keep me?"
Feeling Zhou Chen's breath, Li Mu smiled and said, "You are just a sixth-grade rank person. Do you really think that my Li family is a place where you can come and go as you please?"
"I admit that I am not your opponent, but if I want to leave, you can't stop me." After saying that, the Frost Phantom activated and left the living room directly. Just as he was about to step into the air and leave, six people suddenly appeared in the yard and stood in six corners.

Then the six people were seen making hand gestures and a faint white light suddenly emanated from above the Li family's house, and the white light gathered directly towards the yard where Zhou Chen was.

Zhou Chen looked at the light that was gathering around him with a look of shock. The light condensed into a white tiger above his head. At this time, Li Mu walked out and said, "Do you really think that you can ignore my Li family just because you have some skills?"

Zhou Chen looked at Li Mu and said, "We are going to die anyway, can you tell me what this thing is? Don't tell me that this is a formation you set up just to capture me?"
"It's okay to tell you. This is the Li family's protective formation. Not to mention you, even if you are a fifth-rank warrior, don't think of walking out alive." After saying that, he waved his hand and the six people around him received the order and immediately controlled the white tiger in the air to attack Zhou Chen.

A five-meter-tall giant tiger swooped down from the sky and bit Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen immediately used his body skills to dodge, then came behind the tiger and a piece of ice spirit appeared in his right hand. He then chopped the white tiger in half with one blow.

"How come Mr. Li's storage ring is in your hand? It seems that you really killed Mr. Li."
