No matter what, this must not be allowed to happen!
After all, Xiao Chen had narrowly escaped disaster this time, but who could say if he would be so lucky again? If Li Cuntian refused to give up, Xiao Chen would surely meet his end sooner or later.
Fortunately, after that incident, Li Cuntian did not strike again immediately. Having reached the rank of Minister, he was no fool. He must have realized that since no news of Xiao Chen’s death had arrived, his plot had likely been discovered. If he had been found out, it would have been a case of "beating the grass to scare the snake," and Li Cuntian would certainly not dare to make another move in the short term.
Even so, Xiao Chen and Lin Ruyan did not let their guard down; if anything, they became even more cautious. They knew that complacency would only provide Li Cuntian with his next opportunity. Therefore, they would not allow such a thing to happen, remaining hyper-vigilant toward every movement and whisper of gossip.
