Chapter 34 - One Level Higher

Chapter 34 One Level Higher

The next morning, Zhu Libo came to visit Zhu Wuyang on time. As expected, this move brought Zhu Wuyang another wave of breakthrough points. “Congratulations to the host for seeing the 89th Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation, Zhu Libo, for the first time in your life. You have obtained 800 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for receiving a gift from Zhu Libo, the 89th Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation. You have received 800 breakthrough points…”

….

As expected of one of the most powerful Princes in the Jiu Zhao Imperial Palace. In just a few minutes, he had brought thousands of breakthrough points to Zhu Wuyang, turning into a large wave of strange power that surged over.

If not for the fact that Zhu Wuyang had experienced such a situation many times, he would have been exposed.

After a round of conventional comforting, Zhu Libo revealed a secret to Zhu Wuyang. “Brother Wuyang, I received news from the other Princes yesterday that the reason why Father allowed you to be the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation was because he was criticized by many ministers and nobles. He said that no Crown Prince could survive, so he specially chose you to be the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation.”

“Really?” Zhu Wuyang did not know this news and was a little surprised.

Zhu Libo nodded and said, “It’s true, so Father’s intentions are clear. Brother Wuyang, you don’t have to worry about your safety.”

“I understand. Thank you, Brother Libo.” Although he knew Zhu Libo’s motive, to be honest, this news did make Zhu Wuyang feel a little more at ease.

However, what made Zhu Wuyang’s heart tighten was that the Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist Zhu Libo brought had been quietly sizing him up. There was a strange glint in his eyes. He was clearly using a probing technique on him.

It was unknown if Zhu Libo’s investigation was routine or if he had become suspicious, but Zhu Wuyang had already become vigilant. The Azure Dragon Concealment Art was circulated to the limit, and he hid his aura with all his might, trying his best not to reveal any abnormalities.

However, it was unknown if Zhu Libo did it on purpose or not. From time to time, he would pat Zhu Wuyang’s shoulder or pull his blanket. On the surface, he seemed to be concerned about Zhu Wuyang, but in fact, this made it easier for the Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist to detect Zhu Wuyang’s true strength.

Fortunately, after absorbing the usable breakthrough points yesterday, coupled with Zhu Wuyang’s bitter cultivation, the Azure Dragon Concealment Art, which had already reached the Greater Mastery stage, had improved a lot. It barely allowed Zhu Wuyang to suppress the surging strange power and hide his aura.

In order to reduce Zhu Libo’s suspicion, not only did Zhu Wuyang not resist, he even deliberately exposed more of his body parts outside so that the Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist could investigate more clearly.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Libo and the Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist’s suspicions were obviously much lower. After secretly investigating a few more times, they stopped. Zhu Wuyang had finally survived this calamity.

If not for that, they might have been able to detect Zhu Wuyang’s strength if he had let Zhu Libo cooperate with that Mid-stage Xiantian expert to investigate for a longer period of time.

Even if they could not detect Zhu Wuyang’s strength, Zhu Libo would still be suspicious. Later on, he would definitely send stronger martial artists to investigate Zhu Wuyang’s strength. If that happened, he would be discovered very quickly.

To be honest, Zhu Wuyang’s luck was quite good this time. Zhu Libo had originally planned to bring a Late-stage Xiantian martial artist to investigate Zhu Wuyang’s strength. However, that Late-stage Xiantian martial artist had something on at the last minute, so he did not come. Zhu Libo could only bring a slightly weaker Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist.

Even so, with this Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist’s strength and the other party’s powerful detection technique, Zhu Wu would be exposed if he was not careful.

To put it bluntly, if Zhu Wuyang had not cultivated the Azure Dragon Concealment Art further after Zhu Zhishan and Zhu Haitao left yesterday and improved it by a lot, there was a 90% chance that Zhu Wuyang would be exposed today.

Once that happened, Zhu Wuyang would not be able to escape death.

Fortunately, Zhu Wuyang was lucky and he had worked hard enough. It was a great mercy that Zhu Libo also did not stay any longer. After receiving the signal from the Mid-stage Xiantian martial artist behind him and knowing that the other party had already confirmed Zhu Wuyang’s true strength, Zhu Libo found an excuse to leave.

“Congratulations to the host for being schemed against and investigated by Prince Zhu Libo for the first time in your life. You have obtained 1,000 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for being investigated by a Mid-stage Xiantian Realm martial artist for the first time in your life. You have obtained 900 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for narrowly avoiding death for the first time in your life. You have obtained 5,000 breakthrough points…”

As soon as Zhu Libo left the Crown Prince’s chamber, Zhu Wuyang heard the notifications from the Extraordinary Encounters System in his mind. A series of messages flooded his mind, and in a short period of time, Zhu Wuyang obtained more than 10,000 breakthrough points.

How painful!

Zhu Wuyang frowned and suppressed the strange power while carefully circulating the Grand Earth Limitless Technique.

He naturally did this to prevent Zhu Libo from discovering him and uncovering his true strength. It was better to be safe than sorry.

After all, according to the original owner’s memories, Zhu Libo was not an easy person to deal with. He was cautious, hypocritical, and vicious. If not for that, as one of the most powerful Princes in the Jiu Zhao Imperial Palace, even surpassing some of the previous Crown Princes in talent, he wouldn’t still be able to live well and not be killed by the Mad Emperor, Zhu Zhenwu. From this, one could see Zhu Libo’s ability.

Moreover, Zhu Libo did not pretend to be stupid like the 14th Princess Zhu Jun, the 38th Prince Zhu Wen, and the others to avoid Zhu Zhenwu’s vicious attacks.

There were only a few Princes and Princesses like Zhu Libo in the Imperial Palace. These few were the real dragons among humans. In the future, they had a high chance of becoming the Emperor of the Jiu Zhao Nation.

Compared to these people, the difference between the former owner of the body and them was like heaven and earth. If the former owner was cannon fodder, Zhu Libo and the other outstanding Princes and Princesses were flag bearers. The difference between them could be imagined.

It was precisely because of this that Zhu Wuyang could obtain so many breakthrough points after successfully escaping Zhu Libo’s detection and not being suspected.

Although so many breakthrough points were not still enough for Zhu Wuyang to advance to the Perfection of the Five Viscera Refinement realm, it was still a lot closer.

At this speed, it wouldn’t be long before Zhu Wuyang broke through again.
