If one looked closely, they would see that the black shadow was a cloud of smoke. This strange smoke had been hidden here for a long time, it was obvious that it had heard the conversation between the Second Prince and the guards.

The smoke moved, and in the end, as if it had taken a lot of effort, it left the place with great difficulty.

Two gusts of wind suddenly appeared where the smoke used to be, and two figures landed on the ground at the same time. These two people were none other than the guard and Second Prince.

Frowning, the guard asked curiously, "Your Highness, how did you know?" I don't feel a thing.

As a guard of the Second Prince, he could not immediately discover the problem and danger. This made the guard feel ashamed and depressed, and his face turned extremely ugly.

On the other hand, Second Prince squinted his eyes. He still carried a faint smile on his lips and said: "It's fine. I also thought that I would only know if I had a coiled snake on me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known either." It's too secretive. Other than a beast pet as sharp as the coiling snake, I really don't know who else would be able to discover it.

With that, Second Prince revealed a small black snake on his wrist. The little snake was like a bracelet with its tail connected to his wrist, forming a circle.

The size was just as thick as Second Prince's wrist. Seeing this, the guard did not relax and instead furrowed his brows even more: To think that only a free snake would be able to discover that, it seems like this person's methods are not ordinary!

So what? The fire was already burning.

Second Prince was still calm, as if he was mumbling something, causing everyone's head to be filled with fog. They didn't know what exactly this fellow wanted to express.

The guard was also stunned after hearing what Second Prince had said. He did not know what was going on as he pursed his lips and looked at Second Prince's wrist gloomily.

At the same time, he was also thinking about what would that guy do if he got his hands on my conversation with Second Prince.

Second Prince smiled mysteriously and turned to leave as well. This time, he really left without saying goodbye to the guards.

When the lord left, the guard followed closely behind.

Inside the General Lu Palace, when night fell, Lu Chen was still lying on his bed as he went through all kinds of examinations.

This was the first time Lu Chen, who had his clothes ripped off, felt shame. The Pill Master Zuo, in particular, carefully checked every single inch of Lu Chen's body as if he was an embroidery flower, and even weighed every single secret part of his body.

In that moment, Lu Chen's face flushed red, as if he was a big girl being teased. However, the shame in his heart had already turned to anger, which also meant that he was angry from being embarrassed.

It was a pity that he still couldn't explode, he could only endure, as long as it fit his current personality. Therefore, even though he was ashamed at this moment, the little girl in Lu Chen's mind kept on reminding him that he had to conform to his personality, that he had to strain himself, and not collapse.

He endured it, but the grievances in his heart could no longer be described with words. At this point, Lu Chen simply closed his eyes, and was no longer annoyed.

He was thinking very well. How could he have known that closing his eyes would be better than not closing them at all. As he closed his eyes, his five senses became even sharper.

He was no ordinary person, but a cultivator. Even with his eyes closed, his five senses allowed him to feel everything around him. Without the guidance of his eyes, his senses were even sharper.

In such a situation, Lu Chen's face flushed red, his entire body felt strange, while Lu Zhan and Pill Master Zuo on the side did not seem to see him like this.

Lu Zhan asked with a face full of worry: Pill Master Zuo, how is the brat now? Is there some kind of sequelae? Don't worry, I'll treat him no matter how much it costs.

Pill Master Zuo:... Nothing, nothing at all.

As a physician in the General Lu Palace, what could he do to an old father who doted on his son, Patriarch? What do you mean, no matter how much it costs? With a large family, the Patriarch could not be too presumptuous.

The higher a person's status was, the more restrictions they would suffer. This was precisely the reason why the Patriarch was sometimes very aggrieved.

Of course these Pill Master Zuo could not say, they could only say the truth. Lu Chen was really alright, and had accepted Lu Zhan's request to conduct a full body check on him.

When he thought of this, Pill Master Zuo's mind began to recall the weight on his hands back then. He could not help but sigh with emotion: Un, the capital is not bad, it's pretty robust.

Lu Chen didn't know about these, if Lu Chen knew, he would probably jump into the river out of shame and anger. It was too shameful.

Really? That's good! Lu Zhan stressed the importance of it once again, before relaxing his eyebrows.

He said to Lu Chen: "Smash!" Get up, you're all right, get up.

Lu Chen:... I'm hungry!

Lu Chen didn't know how to retort in his heart. This father was really unreliable, he was immediately lively and active after being checked, one look was enough to tell that he was faking it.

Why did the Pill Master Zuo come? Are you kidding me? Lu Chen didn't know how to retort, and casually gave a reason.

After saying this reason, he felt helpless, and Lu Zhan seemed to have found a way out as he directly said in a jubilant voice: Hmm, so you were actually hungry! Bring my son food.

Lu Chen:...

Pill Master Zuo:... Then the subordinate of the Patriarch will go down.

Go down, go down, and remember not to tell anyone! Lu Zhan casually waved his hand, looking like he did not care, but his face was serious.

He looked quite imposing, and it seemed like Pill Master Zuo had a personality that was difficult to fathom with a single sentence, it was really hard to guess.

After Pill Master Zuo left, Lu Zhan immediately came to Lu Chen's bedside and said complacently: Look at how your father is doing! He will definitely let others know that you were cured by the Pill Master Zuo. When that time came, all logical loopholes would be gone …

Lu Zhan kept on blabbering nonstop, to the point where there was nothing left to complain about in Lu Chen's heart. He carried an indescribable awkwardness within his heart.

But he couldn't say anything to Lu Zhan, and could only speak with an embarrassed face: "That's right, Father, you did well, then …." Can I get up and go to dinner now?

Are you really hungry? Lu Zhan asked in surprise, and immediately, Lu Chen looked back at him speechlessly.

The father and son duo looked at each other in silence. After a while, the father and son duo got up and went to eat.

Lu Chen's day had just begun, and he was busy thinking about how to create a bank. After all, this was a system quest, although he did not have money right now, he had to think of a way to get it.
