Chen Lei looked at the Eighth Prince and said seriously: "No matter what, Chen Lei still remembers this favor. In the future, if there is any need for me, Chen Lei will definitely do his best."
The Eighth Prince looked at Chen Lei and said calmly, "Okay, as long as you have this intention, just remember what I said today."
Chen Lei clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Eighth Prince, Chen Lei is definitely not a person who doesn't keep his word."
The Eighth Prince waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Do you know the origins of these men in black who ambushed you?"
Chen Lei shook his head and said, "I don't know."
The Eighth Prince said: "These people are all the First Prince's men."
"The eldest prince's people?" Chen Lei was quite surprised after hearing the Eighth Prince's words, but in a blink of an eye, he felt that the Eighth Prince would not lie to him.
The Eighth Prince said, "Chen Lei, you destroyed the eldest prince's martial spirit at the hunting meeting. The eldest prince naturally hates you to the core. You know, the eldest prince has a powerful force under his command. How strong are these men in black?"
Chen Lei thought for a moment and said, "Very strong, I am no match for him."
In fact, the reason why these men in black were able to succeed this time was not only because of the sudden incident, but also because of Lan Ziqiong. If Chen Lei escaped alone, he could still do it, but with Lan Ziqiong, there was no way he could escape. If he fought hard, he really couldn't beat these men in black. However, as long as he could escape, these men in black would not be able to catch up with him.
However, he couldn't say these words out loud. If he said them, it would definitely hurt Lan Ziqiong and would be unfair to her.
Moreover, this time, if Lan Ziqiong had not risked her life to protect him, he would not have been able to survive the third attack, would not have been able to catch his breath, and would not have been able to hold back these men in black.
So, he simply admitted that he was no match for these men in black.
The Eighth Prince nodded and said, "Chen Lei, these men in black are not the most powerful force under the First Prince. These men in black are the strong men in the Black Armor Army under the First Prince. In the Black Armor Army, there are also generals and marshals at the ninth level of the Martial Emperor. Although there are not many of them, there are still more than a dozen of them. This is only the power of the First Prince on the surface. I believe that the First Prince has hidden forces that are not weaker than the Black Armor Army. If he uses these forces to hunt you down, can you escape?"
Chen Lei shook his head and said, "I can't escape."
The Eighth Prince said, "It's enough for you to understand this. I'm just reminding you to be more careful. Don't think that you are invincible and can do whatever you want just because you are so powerful. You can't do that right now."
Chen Lei nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Your Majesty."
Lan Ziqiong, who was standing by, was very worried after hearing what the Eighth Prince said. She said, "Father, what should we do? Brother Chen is in danger. You must find a way to save him."
The Eighth Prince glanced at his daughter with a half-smile and said, "Chen Lei and I have no relationship at all. Why should I risk offending the First Prince to help Chen Lei?"
Lan Ziqiong said at the side: "Father, why are you so unkind? Didn't Chen Lei save his daughter? Isn't it right for you to save his life?"
