Kapitel 783: Chapter 783: Brute Force

"You tried to help my family, is it right? I'll believe you. Just tell me why you couldn't help us more. Who was stopping you? You were the strongest person within the Kingdom. You shouldn't be in danger. Why didn't you do more?" Long Chen asked with an amused smile on his face as he prepared to dodge in case Vermilion attacked him 

" You don't know the strength of the King. He is very powerful. I'm not the strongest, but he is. If I had done anything against him, my family would be in danger. I could only save you from the shadows since the King was under the influence of the Royal Tutor," Vermilion said to Long Chen, frowning 

"That does make sense. So you were free after the Royal Tutor was killed by the enemies. However, even if I was to believe you, why were people chasing after me when I left the city with my mother as per your suggestion?" Long Chen asked another question.
