Chapter 828 Chen Lie, The Respected Elder!

• On the opposite side of the river, the wind howled and the clouds swirled. Standing on one side was Chen Lie from the eight great royal families, a man of great renown. Representing the Imperial Guards of the Huaxia Inner Court on the other side was another distinguished figure.
• The eight great royal families had always kept a low profile due to historical suspicions that mercenaries seeking reputation might have ulterior motives. As a result, they rarely resorted to military action unless absolutely necessary. However, Chen Lie had now amassed a hundred thousand troops to face off against the Imperial Guards across the river.
• This turn of events sent a chill down everyone's spine. It appeared that Chen Lie had indeed chosen to stand with Ning Sheng and confront the Inner Court.
