Chapter 114: Immortal Can Surmount Mortals (1)
“Congratulations to the host for advancing to an Advanced Array Master for the first time in his life. You have obtained 50 million breakthrough points…”
Zhu Wuwan had only managed to raise his array formation cultivation from an Intermediate Array Formation Master to an Advanced Array Formation Master after almost exhausting all of his Free Breakthrough Points. It was comparable to the amount of energy Zhu Wuwan had to spend to cultivate a few peerless martial arts. One could imagine how much energy was consumed to raise his array formation cultivation.
However, the Heaven and Earth Array was all-encompassing. Although Zhu Wanhao had just advanced to an advanced array master, his attainments in array formations were almost close to that of an ordinary top-notch array master.
To be able to raise his array formation cultivation to this level in such a short period of time, the power of the breakthrough point and the special encounter system could be imagined. Without these, just relying on Zhu Wuyang alone, even with his flawless Dao foundation, it would still take him a few years.
With Zhu Wanhao’s current array formation cultivation, it might be a little difficult to sneak into the fourth level of the Imperial Library Pavilion. However, sneaking into Tai An Hall was a piece of cake.
In the middle of the night, Zhu Wuwan changed her appearance and put on a night-traveling suit. She left the Crown Prince Palace silently and sneaked toward Tai An Palace.
Zhu Libo lived in the Tai An Palace Hall. Compared to the Crown Prince Palace, the Tai An Palace Hall was undoubtedly much smaller. It was only a fraction of the Crown Prince Palace. However, in the huge Nine Zhao Imperial Palace, the Tai An Palace Hall was not small. It occupied an area of several thousand square meters.
As one of the most powerful princes in the Imperial Palace, Zhu Libo’s family background was astonishing. He had set up many formations in the Tai An Palace, but most of them were high-level formations. There was only one top-grade formation.
With Zhu Wuan’s attainments in array formations, it was still a little difficult to break through these array formations. However, it was much easier to sneak into these array formations.
There were also Connate realm martial artists guarding the Tai An Palace. They were hidden in places where the lights could not shine. Their positions were quite hidden, effectively monitoring every corner of the Tai An Palace.
Among these Connate realm guards, there were Zhu Libo’s trusted aides, but there were also quite a number of people sent by Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu to spy on Zhu Libo.
As one of the most outstanding princes and princesses in the palace, Zhu Libo was naturally the focus of Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu’s attention.
With the help of Heavenly Vision and Earthly Listening Scripture, Zhu Wuyang easily discovered several Connate Realm guards hiding in the dark. He passed by them without being discovered by them and entered Tai An Palace Hall.
Faced with more than ten array formations in Tai An Palace, Zhu Wu took a step east and west as if he was taking a leisurely stroll into the depths of Tai An Palace.
After a little investigation, Zhu Wuyang found out where Zhu Libo was at the moment. He was talking to his mother, Zhang Mingli, in the study. The surrounding guards, eunuchs, and palace maids had been chased far away. There were also Xiantian Realm guards on guard. No one knew what they were talking about in private.
Zhu Wuan’s body was as light as a feather as he silently landed in the corner of the study room. He hid in a small shadow and used his Heavenly Vision and Earthly Hearing Sutra to the extreme to hear the voice in the study room.
“Why haven’t those two b * tches, Laichun and Chuxia, responded yet? Could it be that they don’t want to agree?” Zhang Mingli’s anxious voice sounded.
Zhu Libo smiled. ” Mother, don’t worry. It’s a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. How can they not agree? They might not respond because they’re afraid, so they’re still hesitating. They’ll definitely agree in the end. ‘
“What if they tell this to that good-for-nothing, Zhu Wuyang?” Zhang Mingli was still worried.
“If that’s the case, it might not be a bad thing.” Zhu Libo’s expression was calm and he did not panic at all.
Zhang Mingli was stunned. ” How can this be a good thing? If Zhu Wuyang finds out that you want him to be a father, no matter how weak and incompetent he is, he will still go against us.
“That’s hard to say.” Zhu Libo shook his head. ” If it was when he had just become the Crown Prince, perhaps Zhu Wuyang would have stretched out her claws. However, after experiencing so many things recently, Zhu Wuyang has long become a frightened bird. She hides in the Crown Prince Palace every day in fear of being killed. ‘
” Now we have a way to let him keep his position as the Crown Prince, and we can also let him get rid of his reputation as a laughingstock. With his character, the possibility of him agreeing is very high.
“This…” Zhang Mingli was stunned. She felt that something was wrong. After all, Zhu Libo wanted to put on a forgiving hat for Zhu Wuyang and make him happy to be a father. Even a fool would not agree.
Zhu Wuan was the current Crown Prince, even if he was a little crippled, incompetent, cowardly, and eunuch…With so many shortcomings, it would be difficult for him to have children in the future. It seemed that it was not unacceptable for him to be a father.
Zhang Mingli put herself in Zhu Wuyan’s shoes and thought about it. Then, she considered Zhu Wuyan’s cowardly personality and suddenly felt that what Zhu Libo said made sense.” Even if Zhu Wuan agrees and won’t be deposed as Crown Prince for the time being, it won’t be long before the child is born and it’s discovered that the child isn’t Zhu Wuan’s. He won’t be able to continue being Crown Prince and will even attract a fatal disaster. We’re also in a lot of trouble here.
” Who said I’m going to be the father of Zhu Wuwan’s child? As long as Laichun and Chuxia agree, I’ll have plenty of ways to make them unable to tell who’s the one who planted the seed for them. ” Zhu Libo smiled. ” And that’s ten months later. There are too many variables in such a long time. There’s plenty of room for us to make our moves. ”
Zhang Mingli suddenly understood. ” If that’s the case, why don’t we think of a way to make Laichun and Chuxia pregnant with the 71st Prince’s child? Ten months later, we’ll also get rid of the 71st Prince. ‘
‘ Seventy-one is so cautious. Do you think he will fall for this trick? ” Zhu Libo shook his head. ” It’s already good enough that we can use Zhu Wuan to stall for ten months. It’s better not to think too much.
Zhang Mingli frowned. ” It’s a pity. The 71st prince is a big threat to us. If he hadn’t interfered this time, you wouldn’t have become the most popular prince.
‘ It’s just that after ten months, what if the Mad Emperor still has his eyes on you and insists that you become the nineteenth Crown Prince of the Nine Zhao Nation? What should we do then? Why don’t I immediately write a letter to your sister and let her guard the Tai An Palace Hall for a period of time? ”
“The Mad Emperor has always been wary of your sister’s identity as an Immortal cultivator. With her overseeing the Tai An Palace, she might choose another prince or princess to be the nineteenth crown prince in ten months.”
“This…” Zhu Libo thought for a moment and smiled bitterly, “”lf elder sister didn’t fail in her attempt to break through to the middle qi layer last month, it would naturally be useful to call elder sister back for a period of time. However, elder sister failed in her attempt to break through to the middle qi layer last month, and Mad Emperor already knows about this.. If not for that, why do you think there are so many voices for me to become the Crown Prince this time?
Actually… “
