Rourou made her way towards the inn gently. She moved at a steady pace while her guards all followed behind her closely.


    There were two armored members of the Royal Divine Army guarding the entrance to the Perched Phoenix Inn right now. They stood straight like statues without moving at all. Only their eyes were revealed, which shone with a cold and merciless light as they observed the surroundings. Clearly, they were there to prevent anyone from entering.


    The guards under the captain had stood to one side long ago.


    Rourou directly made her way towards the entrance of the inn with her guards. Even though there were two soldiers at the entrance, she did not show any signs of hesitation in her steps at all. She waspletely at ease.


    Just as Rourou was about to enter the inn, the two soldiers did not do anything to stop her. Instead, they bowed at the same time and said to Rourou together, “Greetings, young miss!”


    The jaws of everyone in the surroundings immediately dropped at the sight of this. All of their eyes became filled with shock and disbelief towards Rourou, leading to quite arge disturbance. They all soon began to guess at Rourou’s identity when they saw how the Royal Divine Army showed so much respect towards her.


    Clearly, Rourou was already used to the polite treatment she received from the two soldiers. She did not find it strange at all. She nodded at the two of them calmly and did not halt her steps at all. She directly entered the inn.


    At the same time, Jian Chen resided on the very top floor of the inn. He remained by the window as he gazed out. He seemed to be deep in thought.


    Behind him, ten-thousand-manmander Peng and his two thousand-manmanders had already arrived in the room. When the ten-thousand-manmander saw Jian Chen’s back, he immediately sped his fist towards Jian Chen without any hesitation and said loudly, “Ten-thousand-manmander Peng of the seventh regiment of the Royal Divine Army greets the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n!”


    “Thousand-manmander Zhang of the seventh regiment of the Royal Divine Army greets the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n!”


    “Thousand-manmander Li of the seventh regiment of the Royal Divine Army greets the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n!”


    At the same time, the two thousand-manmanders behind ten-thousand-manmander Peng sped their hands towards Jian Chen. They looked at Jian Chen with much respect.


    This was the respect towards strength!


    The three of them were only Gods. In their eyes, Overgods were indomitable existences.


    Moreover, the Overgod standing before them was not like any other Overgod. Instead, he possessed a crushing advantage in power. He was the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n who defeated the Overgod of the Wayner n, someone that hadprehended the Laws of Strength; he was Jian Chen!


    Jian Chen turned his head towards the three soldiers covered in armor and asked, “Did Xuan Dou send you here? Are you really that certain that I’m the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n? What if you recognised the wrong person? Wouldn’t it be a huge joke if that happened?”


    “It wasmander Xuan Dou who sent us. Before we came, themander showed us images of the patriarch, which is why we recognize you,” saidmander Peng Fei.


    Jian Chen nodded. Just when he was about to say something, the door to the room suddenly opened once again. The captain of the guards entered from outside. Clearly, he did not sense the special atmosphere in the room, nor did hear what had just been said earlier. As soon as he saw Jian Chen, coldness filled his eyes. He pointed at Jian Chen and said, “Commander Peng, it’s him. He was the one whomitted crimes in the royal capital. Not only does he look down on thews, but he’s extremely audacious as well. If you let him go, who knows how many more heinous crimes he willmit. Please take him away for arrest,mander Peng.”


    Jian Chen smiled when he heard that. He looked at the captain andmander Peng in interest without saying anything at all.


    However, whenmander Peng heard the captain’s words, his gaze changed slightly. If his covered face was visible at that moment, it would be evident that his face had already darkened, having be extremely sunken.


    The person before them was the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n, the same person who easily defeated Wayner Yan who hadprehended the Laws of Strength several dozen years ago. Not to mention that there were rumors recently that the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n had broken through once again in Godking Duanmu’s dwelling.


    The patriarch of the Tian Yuan n was someone that even their superior, Xuan Dou, had to treat politely. Xuan Dou had even ordered them to receive the patriarch warmly, yet the captain of the guards had demanded his arrest as soon as he showed up. Was he not trying to go against everything that themanders were trying to carry out?


    Right now, Peng Fei was tempted to swat the captain to death in a single stroke.


    “Even if you want to take people away, you should find out everything about the matter before taking action.” At this moment, Rourou entered the room with her guards as well. Clearly, she had heard the captain’s words. She said all that as soon as she had entered the room.


    “Young miss, why have youe as well?” Peng Fei was rather surprised as he stared at Rourou and said politely.


    Rourou nced at the guards behind her and a sliver of helplessness appeared on her face. She said, “The girls can’t bear an innocent person being framed, which is why I came specially to have a look.” Rourou paused after reaching this point. She nced at Jian Chen and said, “Ten-thousand-manmander Peng, ording to my knowledge, the entire matter was instigated by Yang Tie. As a result, I hope thatmander Peng can look through all the facts before making an arrest. I won’t allow you to take away the innocent.”


    “Arrest? Young miss, a- aren’t you...” Commander Peng stared at Rourou. He was clueless as to how to respond. He only grumbled indignantly inside, “My young miss, the person before you is the famed patriarch of the Tian Yuan n. Just what position have you forced me into by saying that I would arrest people right before him?”


    “Moreover, even if I really wanted to arrest him, I’m nowhere near his opponent as a God. At the very least, we would need an Overgod likemander Xuan Dou toe personally.”


    Rourou could not help but be slightly confused when she saw howmander Peng responded. Something did seem slightly off.


    “Commander Peng, are there any problems?” Rourou asked.


    The captain also looked atmander Peng. He also sensed that something was off.


    Jian Chen’s interest was piqued as he watched everything unfold like a cliché drama. He smiled at the people in the room.


    Suddenly,mander Peng sped his fist towards Jian Chen. He said apologetically, “Patriarch, this is the first youngdy of ourmander, Xuan Rourou. The young miss did not know the patriarch’s identity, so I that hope the patriarch can forgive her if she has offended you in any way.”


    The captain immediately became stunned when he saw themander’s actions. Disbelief filled his face.


    He was a mighty ten-thousand-manmander of the Royal Divine Army, not to mention the fact that he was the famed ten-thousand-manmander, Peng Fei, yet he was actually apologising to the young man. Moreover, the reason for his apology was how their youngdy had spoken.


    Just how great was the first youngdy of themander’s estate? With her status in the army, very few Overgods would ever truly pursue the matter even if she disrespected a few regr Overgods.


    However,mander Peng was actually personally apologising to the young man before him due to some minor things raised by Xuan Rourou. Just who was this young man?


    “Patriarch? Patriarch? Just which patriarch in our Divine Kingdom of Pingtian possesses such power? There aren’t any. Let alone our divine kingdom, there are no patriarchs as powerful as him even in our neighbouring divine kingdoms because the patriarchs of ns with Overgods are always Gods or even other Deities. However, even when facing the patriarch of the Yang family,mander Peng would still talk without going out of his way to be respectful. He would not show any fear, let alone lower himself like this... Unless he’s from the Dong’an province... no... impossible...” The captain guessed. Finally, he seemed to think of who this person was, and his face immediately paled.


    Xuan Rourou was also slightly taken aback bymander Peng’s apology. However, she also seemed to realise something soon afterwards. A strange light immediately filled her eyes as she stared at Jian Chen. She almost cried out, “You’re the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n from the Dong’an province?”


    ording to Xuan Rourou’s understanding, only the patriarch of the Tian Yuan n could be referred to as patriarch and makemander Peng act with so much caution.


    Overgods were basically all ancestors in ns. They would stand back while the position of patriarch would be upied by someone else. Only the Tian Yuan n of the Dong’an province possessed an extremely powerful Overgod as a patriarch.
