Chapter 96 – Like Father, Like Son! (4.3 k)
Prince Zhi had obviously never dealt with small children.
The only thing he was skilled in was tricking small children with candy canes.
But that obviously doesn’t work for the male lead.
Prince Zhi opened the Vajra Mantra prohibition on the stone wall, then looked at the male lead with a smile and a hint of guilt in his pleasing eyes.
The male lead’s eyes were flustered, not knowing how to face Prince Zhi.
He was not good with words in the first place, or else he wouldn’t have been bullied like that by Su Shallow.
At this moment, he looked at Prince Zhi who faced himself with a guilty face.
Although reason warned him not to get close to the person in front of him.
Because it would ruin the great event of his seclusion.
But the words could not come out of his mouth.
The male lead had investigated many rumors about Zhao during this time.
He knew a lot of Zhao’s hidden secrets.
One of them included the fact that the Zhao Clan’s royal family would go crazy if they practiced the Dragon God Power.
“Count, forget it.”
The male lead glanced toward the stone room, then shook his head again.
If he had opened the forbidden system himself, it would definitely be a good idea to go in and sweep around.
But the prohibition was opened by Prince Zhi.
The male lead suddenly felt disinterested.
Prince of Wisdom was puzzled: “You cultivate Buddhist techniques, and the prohibition on the stone wall is the Vajra Mantra, a lost prohibition of the Buddhist Sect, which means that the stone room was at least the cave of a Buddhist powerhouse hundreds of years ago, and there might be something you need inside.”
The male lead shook his head, “I’ve decided to retire, from now on I won’t ask about the matters of the Immortal Cultivation World, whatever is inside the cave has nothing to do with me anymore.”
Retreat?
Prince Zhi obviously didn’t expect the male lead to say this and couldn’t help but freeze for a moment.
Immediately afterward, he nodded his head and said, “That’s good. The Immortal Cultivation World has many rights and wrongs, and it really isn’t suitable for you simple-hearted children.”
“Who else?” The male lead asked.
Prince Zhi said, “I’m talking about the oldest six of the family, who is also the crown prince of the dynasty, his name is Zhao Yi, have you met with him yet? Old Six that child is pure in nature, just like you, he is easily deceived.”
After saying that, he proudly said, “I’ve cheated him several times.”
The male lead’s eyes were stunned.
Seeing this, Prince Zhi hurriedly explained, “I didn’t take his goodies for nothing, I exchanged them for other things.”
The male lead was silent and speechless.
He had also heard a lot of rumors about Zhao Yi during this time.
Originally, the male lead was still angry at Zhao Yi because Zhao Yi had been targeting him.
But then he heard about the things Zhao Yi did for Su Shallow.
The male lead realized that it really wasn’t a loss for him to be targeted.
Zhao Yi really loved Su Shanshan like the apple of his eye.
In his place, he was Zhao Yi.
If he found out that someone was hitting on Su Shanshan, his reaction would only be greater.
Therefore, the male lead doesn’t hate Zhao Yi anymore.
He only hated Su Shanshan!
That woman’s own misbehavior was not enough, but she also ruined his life.
Luckily she’s dead.
Otherwise, I don’t know how many more people would have been victimized!
“Do you know who it was that imbued me?”
Finally, the male lead couldn’t help but ask the question that had been buried in his heart.
Other than Su Shallow, it was that mysterious black-robed man who had screwed him over the most.
Even if he was going to go into seclusion, the male lead still had to know who his enemy was.
Prince Zhi hesitated for a moment and said, ”It should be His Majesty, the current emperor, that is, your royal uncle. After my accident back then, I asked you mother and son to take care of him, and he is the only one among the royal family who knows your identity.”
Prince Zhi said in relief, “Originally, I was worried that no one would instill you after my accident, I didn’t realize that your imperial brother was so considerate that he had already made all the preparations, it’s really a blessing for Zhao’s children for your imperial brother to be the emperor!”
The male lead’s fists instantly hardened.
This blessing is for whoever wants it, he doesn’t care about it!
After Prince Zhi finished speaking, he said with a straight face, “Since you want to go back to seclusion, then I won’t stop you. We’re going to do a big thing next, the Immortal Cultivation World might not be peaceful, your cultivation is too low, it’s good to avoid the wind for a while.”
Prince Zhi looked at the male lead and said with an uplifted spirit, “Don’t worry, this time we will definitely fight a peaceful world back for your descendants, and the descendants of the Zhao Clan will never have to live in fear ever again!”
Hearing these words, the male lead did not have much of a reaction, but the old monk at the side had his pupils quake.
What was Zhao’s group of lunatics trying to do?
Could it be that they had discovered that the sects and lineages of the Immortal Cultivation World had secretly joined forces?
The old monk was horrified in his heart, and the red-gold fluorescence around his soul body began to tremble.
Prince Zhi immediately sensed it in his heart.
He turned his head and looked at the old monk seriously for the first time.
“You seem to be scared?”
Prince Zhi’s tone was calm, but there was an air of unquestionability in his tone.
“What we’re about to do is top secret, even the Zhao Clan doesn’t know about it, and it’s even more unlikely that the Buddhist Sect would know about it, but the fact that you’re scared out of your mind when you hear me say that we’re about to do something big shows that you do know something.”
The red-gold light in Prince Zhi’s eyes flickered erratically.
He looked at the old monk and said word for word, “Being related to the Zhao Clan and implicating the Buddha Sect means that the battlefield is outside of the imperial court, so it’s within the Immortal Cultivation World!”
The old monk was instantly horrified.
He looked at Prince Zhi with wide eyes, as if he had seen a ghost.
The old monk was completely unable to understand.
He just had a soul tremor.
Why did the person in front of him guess that something was wrong in the Immortal Cultivation World?
Were there really people in the world who were more intelligent than demons?
“You, who the hell are you?” The old monk asked, shivering.
Prince Wisdom did not answer.
He glanced at the old monk and then turned his head back.
The reaction of the soul body couldn’t be fooled.
Although the old monk didn’t reply, his soul body’s reaction already said it all.
Since he had confirmed what was in his heart, there was no need for Prince Zhi to waste time on the old monk.
When Prince Zhi stopped speaking, the old monk became anxious instead.
You finish your sentence!
What have you discovered?
Say it clearly!
Prince Zhi simply ignored the old monk.
He looked at the male lead and asked with a smile, “What are your plans next?”
The male lord was shocked by Prince Wisdom’s performance just now and hadn’t reacted yet.
Someone similar to Prince Zhi had seen the male lord once before.
Yao clan, Linglong!
Linglong gave the male lead a very deep impression.
If it wasn’t for Su Shallow suddenly stepping in at the end, the male lead might have died.
The male lead originally thought that Linglong was already unrivaled in the world.
He didn’t expect this Prince Zhi who suddenly popped up to be even better than Linglong.
The hero was silent.
At the same time, he strengthened his resolve to retire.
The Immortal Cultivation World was too dangerous, it was better to find a place to live in.
Wait until all these people are dead before coming out!
“So that mysterious man in black is the Emperor.”
The male lead repeated the name of his great enemy once again in his mind.
Thanks to him before he had worried for the emperor, thinking that it must be hard for him to manage so many lunatics every day.
It turned out that he didn’t realize that the emperor himself was the craziest!
“The sin is in one person, the merit is in a thousand years.”
The hero still remembers the emperor shouting madly in front of him.
It was indeed a magnificent thing to say.
But you’re an emperor, and all you think about all day long is the death of your country and the destruction of your family.
Is that appropriate?
“So Zhao Yi and I are brothers.” The male lead thought of Zhao Yi again.
“No wonder he saved me several times.”
The male lead let out a sigh in his heart, and then he felt that something was wrong.
“Wait!”
The male lead combed through the process of dealing with Zhao Yi in his mind.
He realized that Zhao Yi had never saved him.
On the contrary.
Every time whenever Zhao Yi appeared, the male lead would be out of luck.
On the Western Mountain, when Grand Prince Zhao Coronation sneaked up on him and fell off the cliff, it was Zhao Yi who ordered him to do so.
In the Secret Realm, he fell from the top of the mountain just for the sake of Zhao Yi, and that time he suffered a horrible torture that he would never forget.
At the entrance of the Taotie Dragon Hall, almost being pitted to death by Linglong counted as another time.
“They are truly worthy of being father and son!” The male main character’s teeth were clenched in anger.
The old emperor had imbued him, causing him to become a thorn in Zhao’s side, and proclaimed his identity, causing the Xuan Zhen Guan and the Zong Renfu to hunt him down and kill him, and the injuries on his body had never been completely healed.
Although Zhao Yi wasn’t as bad as the old emperor, it was his mind that was tormented, and Zhao Yi was one of the main culprits for the reason why he retired from the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Without reviewing the disk, it was a shock.
This father and son duo, one destroyed his body and the other tortured his soul.
He was a good monk, but he suffered all sorts of hardships.
It was all the work of those two!
“Deceiving people!”
The male lead was so aggrieved that he almost cried.
Prince Ji looked at the male lead, not understanding why he was suddenly so angry.
He didn’t dare to say anything, and he didn’t dare to ask.
For a while, the atmosphere on the platform was strangely heavy.
In the end, it was the old monk who couldn’t help himself.
The Luohan Temple was right above his head, and all his soul body had to do was float up there and he’d be home.
But these two in front of him had no intention of moving around at all.
They weren’t in a hurry, the old monk was.
“Amitabha Buddha.”
The old monk breathed out a Buddha’s name under his breath.
He had been fooled by Prince Zhi and couldn’t fold his hands, so he could only say to Prince Zhi with a lowered brow, “Your honor, the Luohan Temple is on the mountain, and the poor monk was originally the presiding officer of the Luohan Temple Da, so if you don’t mind…”
The old monk’s words have not finished, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
He subconsciously looked up and saw Prince Zhi looking at him with cold eyes.
“You monk, so treacherous!”
Prince Zhi said in a murderous manner, “The West Mountain Temple and the Luohan Temple have been feuding for a long time, this kid came from the West Mountain Temple, what is your plan to lurk beside him, you, the host of the Luohan Temple?”
The old monk’s face changed, and he quickly said, “Your honor, it was pure coincidence that the poor monk and Fa Jing met. Moreover, the two of us have been friends for several years, and I have never had any second thoughts about him, the sun and the moon can tell!”
The male lead also came back to his senses at this time.
He hurriedly explained, “Ancestor Luohan has been taking good care of me for the past two years, he didn’t harm me.”
Prince Zhi looked at him and shook his head, “Knowing a man’s face is not knowing his heart, whether or not he has ever thought of harming you, search your soul and you’ll know.”
After Prince Wisdom finished speaking, he didn’t wait for the old monk to react, he flexed his fingers and grabbed, the old monk’s soul body wrapped in reddish-golden fluorescent light flew uncontrollably into his palm.
The hero hastily raised his eyes to look, and saw a small red-golden dragon constantly circling in Prince of Wisdom’s palm.
The old monk didn’t even react before the little red-golden dragon had already drilled into his soul body.
The old monk’s soul body suddenly trembled.
He opened his mouth to say something, but he saw that the little red-gold dragon fly back into Prince Zhi’s palm, and the entire process took less than a breath.
Prince Wisdom sensed it for a moment, nodded slightly, and said to the male lord, “This old monk didn’t lie, other than asking you to take him back to the Luohan Temple, he really doesn’t have any other calculations.”
The male lead was instantly relieved.
He was now in a state of rebellion, and the only one he could trust around him was the old monk.
If the old monk also counted on him, then he would be too miserable.
The old monk, however, was not as relaxed as the male lead.
He suspected that Prince Zhi was deliberately looking for an excuse to search his soul.
If Prince Zhi really suspected that he was counting on the male lead, he would have directly slapped him to death.
When did Zhao’s lunatics talk about evidence when they did things?
The old monk stared at Prince Zhi, wanting to see something unusual on his face.
Prince Zhi’s city was extremely deep and didn’t show any emotions at all.
The old monk didn’t dare to determine whether he had discovered anything or not.
He was extremely apprehensive.
If Zhao found out about the great event that the cultivation world had been plotting for hundreds of years.
Then extinction was just around the corner!
When Prince Zhi saw that the old monk had been sneaking and peeking at him, he became impatient and said, “You monk, what do you keep peeking at this king for?”
The old monk was caught in flagrante delicto, and his complexion was immediately a bit unnatural.
Prince Zhi also ignored him and instead pulled out a purse from his bosom and handed it to the male master with a smile.
The male lead looked at the purse and asked in confusion, “What is this?”
Prince Zhi explained, “I have limited time to come out this time, and after meeting you, I will immediately make a trip to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, so I’m afraid I won’t have time when I return. I have an item here that I need to submit to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I would like to ask you to make a trip for me.”
The male lord was a bit embarrassed.
He wasn’t very good at refusing people.
This was evident from the fact that Su Shanshan had disgusted him time and time again.
Not to mention that this person in front of him was also his father.
He should help in all senses of the word.
“But I’m already preparing to return to my hometown.” The male lead didn’t take the purse.
Prince Ji was not amused.
“You have to eat even if you go into seclusion, you can’t live in the mountains and drink the wind and dew, can you?”
“Without money where do you live, where do you get the seeds and tools for planting, you can’t steal and rob, can you?”
“Zhao Yi has nothing else but money.”
“It’s only right that you help him deliver things and take payment from him!”
“You have money in your hand, whether it’s to return to the mountains, or to take a boat to the sea, you can return to the mountains however you want!”
Hearing this, the male lead slowly nodded.
During the time he had been on the run, he had learned the importance of silver money.
After Prince Zhi said this, the male lead also realized that he had thought too simply before.
Without money in hand, life in retreat would indeed be difficult.
Thinking of this, the male lead reached out and caught Prince Zhi’s purse and asked, “Will it be enough to give this to the crown prince?”
Prince Zhi nodded, “Zhao Yi should be heading to the Immortal Cultivation Conference. The Immortal Cultivation Conference is being held at Yao’s, so you can look for him there.”
The male lead agreed and kept the purse close.
Seeing this, Prince Zhi smiled and said, “After you give the item to Zhao Yi, you should find a place to hide, after we finish that big event, you’ll be safe from now on.”
The male lead sniffed and hesitated for a moment, “Is it dangerous?”
Prince Zhi smiled and waved his hand, “Originally there was no chance of winning, but recently there is an extra thirty percent certainty, a huge advantage!”
After saying that, a circle of red-gold halo appeared in front of his eyes.
Prince Wisdom turned back towards the male lead and nodded, then took a step into the halo.
Seeing that the halo was about to dissipate, the male lead finally couldn’t hold back and whispered:
“Be safe!”
In the next second, the red-gold halo dissipated.
The dragon domain that bound the old monk disappeared, and he regained his freedom again.
The male master withdrew his gaze and said to the old monk, “Ancestor, let me send you up the mountain first.”
The old monk remembered Prince Zhi’s earlier reaction, and his heart was suddenly in turmoil.
I wonder how much Prince Zhi knows.
Nor did he know what was in the purse he gave the male lead.
The extinction of the Immortal Cultivation World is just around the corner.
The old monk fidgeted up with fear in his heart.
“Ancestor, what’s wrong with you?” The male master asked suspiciously.
The old monk glanced towards the purse on the male master’s chest, then made up his mind.
“Old Monk will go with you to the Immortal Cultivation Conference!”
The male lead looked at him and suddenly took the purse out and handed it towards the old monk.
“Ancestor, do you want to see what’s inside?”
The old monk’s face changed slightly.
He looked at the male master and then glanced at the purse.
It was neither a good idea to take it, nor was it a good idea not to take it.
This disgusting feeling was exactly the same as when he faced Prince Zhi just now.
PS: Just nine thousand more today, it’s too hard, I’ll take a break.
