I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 970

Chen Mo and Li Yuan exchanged a glance.

So this is the one called Li Chichang?

With muscles rippling, a glowing face and strong energy, he really doesn't look over sixty.

Though cultivators generally live longer than ordinary people, before achieving the Heavenly Human Realm, the difference isn't that substantial.

Moreover, martial arts cultivation fundamentally exploits the body's potential; many Cross-training Masters are vigorous when young but deteriorate prematurely as they age.

Li Chichang seems to be following the path of cross-training, and he's maintained himself quite well.

"Eh? Who are these..."

Li Chichang noticed the three accompanying guests and asked aloud.

Ji Weifeng hadn't decided how to introduce them, but Chen Mo promptly spoke, "Chen Mo of the Sky Scale Guard Thousand Households, an old acquaintance of Lord Ji, happened to be passing by and thought to join the festivities if you don't mind."

"S-Sky Scale Guard? Thousand Households?!"

Li Chichang was stunned.

The two darts masters guarding the door were also baffled.

In their line of work, they often deal with local government offices and understand what his identity implies.

Even if Changfeng Escort Agency does substantial business, it's at best, a local power, while the Sky Scale Guard Thousand Households is a significant figure, even ranked in the Capital City!

Imperial Power grants special privileges, with real authority over life and death, a true court elite!

How could Ji Weifeng, merely a County Magistrate in Tiannan State, have had the opportunity to meet such a character?

"What, is Li Master's Guard unwelcoming?" Chen Mo raised an eyebrow and asked.

Li Chichang came back to his senses, hastily bowed and said, "Welcome, of course! If Mr. Chen wishes to visit my home, it would brighten the Li family and be a great honor!"

"I came here in haste, and didn't prepare any gifts." Chen Mo took a Jade Pendant from his sleeve and said, "This is Clear Spirit Jade, effective for calming the mind, nothing too valuable, just hope Li Master doesn't mind."

Li Chichang hurriedly gestured, "Just your presence is a tremendous honor, how could I dare accept anything?"

Chen Mo's face turned cold, "Does Li Master look down on me?"

"I wouldn't dare!"

Li Chichang's throat moved slightly, glancing awkwardly at Ji Weifeng.

Ji Weifeng cleared his throat and said, "Since he's giving it to you, take it; otherwise, you'd be slighting Mr. Chen's generosity."

"Then...then I'd be honored to accept." Li Chichang carefully received it, placing it into his chest, and gestured, "Please, esteemed guests, come inside."

Chen Mo's expression softened, smiling as he said, "Sorry for the intrusion."

The group stepped through the gate, entering the mansion.

The Li Mansion isn't the typical courtyard layout, but is composed of several independent courtyards interconnected, with corridors crossing, houses arranged neatly, occupying a vast area with almost ten courtyards, a true mansion even in Central State.

The wealth is evidently quite substantial.
