"Well, the night is still long, and I have plenty of time to spare. Why don't we just take our time and have fun? Hey, don't say anything about making a fool of yourself. This is something that others would never think of doing in their lifetime! You have to hold on a little longer to have fun..."
With this in mind, the conversation that followed became like this...
“Chu…Chu Tianxiao…Do you have any brains at all? I…I’m not a small fry, I’m…Ah!”
"... Disciple, disciple... don't come here again, I will obey you in everything... ah!"
"You idiot... Do you know that if you continue like this... my power will be gone, and I will no longer be able to possess you and help you increase your strength!"
After the last sentence, Chu Tianxiao paused. The old man's face lit up immediately, thinking that he had finally found Chu Tianxiao's pulse. Just as he was about to speak, Chu Tianxiao waved his hand casually and said, "So what?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, and saw Chu Tianxiao's expression gradually turned cold. He said with undisguised sarcasm: "Not to mention that you have suffered setbacks one after another, and it is not easy to recover a little bit of your soul. How much effect can you play after possessing me? Even if you are intact and can make my strength soar after possessing me, I still disdain it."
"Strength is ultimately best achieved through one's own efforts. Relying on ghosts to increase your cultivation level may be fine once or twice, but if you do it too often, not only your body but also your martial arts spirit will sooner or later become problematic!"
"Besides... I don't have the habit of raising wolves. Rather than being blackmailed by your greed, it's better to just disperse your cultivation and save you the trouble!"
At this point, Chu Tianxiao paused and said coldly: "The reason why I stopped talking to you is not because of your little thoughts, but because... I am a little sleepy, so this is the last time..."
"If you don't hear what I want to hear this time, you'll drown in there!"
fork!
As Chu Tianxiao's voice fell, the old man was drowned out again. The howling sound had become weak and it was obvious that he was about to reach his limit...
Not long after, Chu Tianxiao lifted him up. Without saying a word, he saw the old man struggling violently. Finally, he kowtowed repeatedly and said, "I greet the young master. May the young master be well!"
"… Wouldn't it have been better if you had done this earlier? You've already fallen into my hands, but you're still playing the cool game, thinking that I'm eager to recruit talents? It's ridiculous! Look at you, why did you end up in such a state that your cultivation is completely wasted and your soul is full of holes?"
Chu Tianxiao said slowly, and upon hearing this, the old man's face twitched again, but he didn't know whether it was out of anger or regret... Fortunately, Chu Tianxiao didn't pay attention to this and said directly: "Okay, now, I want to ask you a few questions. You are knowledgeable and should be able to answer them well, right?"
The word "well-informed" in this sentence was emphasized, how could the old man not understand the meaning? Chu Tianxiao kowtowed like crazy, very satisfied with this, and asked the first question: "Tell me first, have you been to the Savage River Basin? What kind of place is that? Also, what dangerous places are there in the Savage Land?"
"Hmm... What did you want to do to Qin Yun? What on earth is that 'Sky Blood Puppet'?"
"Have you ever seen anyone similar to Qin Yun?"
"… "
After a series of questions, Chu Tianxiao got a lot of information. Even he had a hint of excitement in his eyes. He kept tapping his hands, and his mind was full of thoughts...
"It's time to go big... This ticket can be used for big things!"
Chu Tianxiao lay on the couch, shaking the ring while thinking carefully. As he thought, he slowly fell asleep...
…
The next morning, when Chu Tianxiao got up and took a shower as usual, a cold voice sounded outside the tent...
"Excuse me, are you the Prince of Chu? Chu Tianxiao?"
When the voice fell, Chu Tianxiao stared and walked out. In the early morning, he saw a man standing there motionless, looking up at the rising sun quietly, with a calm face, as if nothing mattered to him.
When looking closely, there was dew on his body, as if he had been standing here for a whole night!
And that night, Chu Tianxiao didn't notice anything at all. Although this might be due to the other party's secret treasure, the fact that he had such a secret treasure was enough to show that this person had an extraordinary identity!
“…Who are you?” Chu Tianxiao’s pupils shrank, and he saw the man turned around and drew a long sword from his waist!
When the sword came out, it was as bright as the rising sun. Chu Tianxiao felt as if a ball of fire had suddenly ignited in front of his eyes, which made him a little dazzled.
He suddenly became alert.
However, the next moment, he was a little stunned. He saw the man push back, and the sword flew into Chu Tianxiao's hand with a whoosh. He then heard him slowly say, "This sword is called the Chuyang Sword, forged by Master Ouyang. Once it is completed, it will be a treasure of the Tongxuan Upper Realm. It only needs to be forged further. With time, it has a certain chance of becoming a treasure of the Qihun Realm."
"Even if you can't use it, you can give it to your servants."
"This sword is suitable for both men and women."
Chu Tianxiao was shocked. He knew that a sword that had the potential to advance to the Soul Awakening Realm was not something that could be considered cheap. But he didn't expect this person to give it to him so easily...
Take a closer look at this person's clothing...
Chu Tianxiao's eyebrows turned, and he suddenly thought of a possibility, but then he shook his head and said, "The aura on you... doesn't seem like him. He should be stronger than you."
The man's expression suddenly changed, and he nodded, saying, "As your Highness said, Prince Chu is really good at reading people's expressions. Yes, I am the personal guard under the command of the First Prince."
After saying this, Chu Tianxiao's right hand trembled slightly...
With his status, he naturally knew what a personal guard was...
It is said that the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty has a secret method that can allow two people to form a special connection. After practicing this secret method in childhood, one of them will improve as the strength of the other one increases, and the two will be inseparable. If one of them is a genius, then this is equivalent to cultivating two peerless geniuses at once!
Of course, the two were not completely synchronized, but what they lacked... they made up for in quantity!
This kind of secret method can be used by one person in multiple directions. How many more people can be involved depends on the cultivation level and talent of the core person!
Of course, this kind of secret method has the distinction between master and servant. The core one is the 'master'. The master can have multiple roles, while the servant will only choose one.
That servant is the personal guard!
However, since this method consumes too much energy, all the personal guards are only given to princes, and only those princes with extraordinary talents!
As a prince participating in the fight for the throne, he is naturally qualified... Among them, the eldest prince comes first!
Why is the eldest prince praised as the first genius of the Great Zhou royal family? The leader of the four heroes? The most likely candidate to succeed the throne
It’s not because he entered the Soul Awakening Realm very early, but because he has seven personal guards!
Seven, almost terrifying personal guards!
Seven of them are almost loyal bodyguards who would never betray their country!
Every personal guard is a strong backing for the master and must be trained from childhood. Once trained, each one will be no different from a living treasure created by a bunch of resources!
Let's put it this way, a slightly better personal guard is almost as good as a first-class genius in Kyoto, and if the personal guard around a monster like the eldest prince...
That is definitely a terrifying existence!
Of course, the secret method of Tieyiwei is not without disadvantages. For example, once the Tieyiwei dies, it will have a significant impact on the 'master'... etc. However, it is also recognized by the world that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
The personal guards have always been the "shadow" of the "prince" and rarely appear in public. This is the first time Chu Tianxiao has seen one...
So at this moment, he did not have the slightest contempt in his heart. He narrowed his eyes, clasped his fists and said, "Excuse me, sir, which guard are you?"
It should be noted that each of the personal guards has no name, and their names are based on their ranking.
Then he heard the man say: "Under the command of the eldest prince..."
"First Guard."
After hearing this, even though Chu Tianxiao had guessed it, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised at this moment, and looked away: "What can I do for you?"
