Yes, Your Highness!

The man in black answered respectfully. Then, he picked up the slip of paper and took a wrong step. His figure disappeared in a flash. When the breeze blew, not even a trace of his presence remained.

This man was truly able to come and go without a trace, and was extremely mysterious. This was the Dark Guard of the Second Prince Palace, and his methods were strong enough to help the Second Prince do many things that would cause them to lose face.

Seeing Dark Guard disappear in front of his eyes, Second Prince had a cold expression, with sharp eyes, he looked at the document in his hand with a cold gaze.

Three o'clock!

Tonight was the night he would make the transaction with Lu Chen. Lu Chen suddenly becoming mysterious also made him feel that it was strange, so when he came back last night, he started to investigate the Lu family.

Lu Chen suddenly went from trash to a genius, and in a single day, he was raised by two levels.

After going from a trash to an early stage Innate realm cultivator, Lu Zhan was seriously injured after his battle. He originally had no hope of winning, even the pill refiners had no way to deal with him.

However, he did not know how he managed to recover or how he managed to get stronger. If it wasn't for Lu Chen's appearance, he would have noticed the movement of the General Mansion.

Thinking about it here, Second Prince thought that he probably never would have taken note of the General Mansion. After all, he was only focused on maintaining his own strength and fighting against First Prince.

All sorts of thoughts swirled around, all sorts of powers lingered on, the Second Prince's eyes became more and more determined, he thought about the treatment he had been subjected to ever since he became the First Prince.

Thinking about how the current situation was inappropriate for him, even thinking about the consequences for those who failed to seize the throne, even thinking about the time when he might be in an even more miserable state than them.

Second Prince took a deep breath, a red light flashed in his eyes, and then disappeared. The corner of his mouth hooked into a smile as he said: "Just you wait, after today, I will shock you all."

Puff — -

When he was wrapped by the piece of paper, Second Prince clenched his fist and turned it into dust.

Smoke and dust flew, covering Second Prince's face, as if he was in a real situation.

And on this day, within the General Lu Palace, Lu Zhan's heart was not at peace either. He walked back and forth with his hands behind his back.

He kept wailing as he raised his head. The originally handsome face was now wrinkled to the point that it had become a piece of cloth. His expression was exceptionally unsightly.

Sigh, my son hasn't come back for the whole night. I wonder how is his discussion with Second Prince going, and how is his request for me to help.

He kept thinking and guessing what had happened last night, what Lu Chen might have done, whether he had succeeded in the end, and so on.

Being too impatient, he had not seen anyone apart from the butler for the entire day. He did not want to see anyone, so he did not want to see anyone.

After all, everyone in the manor knew what he looked like the day before yesterday. Although they knew he was fine, no one could stop him if he wanted to rest.

Lu Zhan impatiently waited for Lu Chen's information, even muttered while he was walking: How come I don't know if I'll be able to report it? Bastard …

Although he was complaining, Lu Zhan was still worried about his son.

Lu Zhan did not know about all this. Seeing that it was about time, he followed the crowd of people to the city gates.

Even the soldier guarding the door looked at Lu Chen with guarded eyes. In regards to this, Lu Chen thought, "I'm not, I don't want to, I'm also very desperate, I don't have anything with me, I can only hold it in my hand, sigh …" Who told me to be poor?

Lu Chen was really poor, even the money for him to eat came from his father's place the night before yesterday.

He had never seen a cultivator poorer than himself. He was too poor, he could not even afford to eat. Even the cheapest of storage pouches could not afford to buy them.

In the midst of his depression, Lu Chen ran far away quickly with a sullen look. Behind him, those commoners who had come out with him shuddered once again and began to discuss with each other.

F * ck, who the hell is this guy, running so fast, if the rich second generations were to find out, they would definitely pull him into the Ku Duo team.

It's a pity he ran so fast, he didn't see what he looked like, but I think it's better to stay far away from him and not offend him.

Who had offended him? Who was he planning to hide in a gunny sack? Too terrifying! The jealousy and hatred in his heart must be strong.

As the people dispersed, the soldier standing guard at the door felt a sense of sympathy. He thought, "This guy really looks like a good person. Why is he so brazen with a sack in his hand?"

At this moment, the rumor of someone brazenly holding a sack to teach someone a lesson was quickly spread in the city and soon became the talk of the common people.

Lu Chen did not know about all this. He had arrived at the small forest last night, and looked at the broken temple that was not far away. He looked at a tall tree, and climbed up it with a few swishes.

After finding a thick branch and adjusting his posture, he prepared to sleep. He thought to himself that he still needed to sleep for a while before the time came and he still needed to trade in the evening.

Thinking about this, Lu Chen fell into a peaceful sleep. He thought about nothing, and when his mind was completely blank, Lu Chen fell asleep with his body still in its original position, completely unable to flip over.

It was protected by a tree branch, and there was a medicine bag to disperse the mosquitoes, along with a broken gunny sack on his body. Lu Chen's equipment could be said to be quite complete.

Time flew. Soon, it was the third fragment of the night.

There was no moon today, and everything around him was pitch black, so he couldn't even see his own fingers in front of him. When Lu Chen woke up, it was already the third fragment of the night.

Insects were chirping in all directions, and all kinds of small animals were roaming around in the forest. The forest at night was actually very lively.

Amidst the bustle, Lu Chen lowered the feeling of his own existence as his presence slowly fused with the surroundings, allowing him to blend in naturally and not be discovered.

The night wind blew, making it the time when one was the most tired, when one wanted to sleep the most, when one slept the deepest.

Besides, there was no one outside the city. However, things were different today. There were whizzing sounds coming from all around! The sound of wind breaking.

A black shadow flashed. The two of them were standing in the middle of the temple. They were the same ones who had been standing the day before. Even their footprints hadn't changed.

The moment the sound of wind breaking sounded, Lu Chen stood up and looked towards the run-down temple. His ears twitched, and after realizing that the person inside the run-down temple was standing still, the corners of his mouth hooked up into a smile.

It must be the Second Prince! That's great! He was going to get rich! Heehee …

Lu Chen's heart was excited. He silently descended from the tree, and then appeared from another direction, heading towards the dilapidated temple.
