CHAPTER XXXVI

It is even rumored that the emperor of the Yan Dynasty has chosen the eighth prince as the sole heir to the throne, after all, to have such a filial child, which parent does not like it? However, I don't know if it is in response to the sentence "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future" The Eight Princes originally did not have anything outstanding, the emperor was prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the harem was as beautiful as a cloud, so there were many heirs, only the princesses were countless, and the princes were also a handful, these eight princes were just the most ordinary of the many princes before, but since returning from the north, they have shown different talents. First of all, the secret art cultivation, in just three years, from a small martial artist beginner to a great martial artist intermediate level, don't think this speed is slow, ordinary people, etc., even if you have a high-grade elixir bath every day, it is impossible to cross a big realm to improve your cultivation in three years. But this is how wonderful things happened, which made His Majesty the Emperor full of joy at the same time, but also shocked the attention of the ground. Moreover, he has shown an amazing talent in governing the country, and his talent is close to that of His Majesty the Emperor today, and even in some aspects, especially in the military, he has a unique strategic vision, and has a natural keen intuition for dealing with unexpected situations. This ability has helped the empire survive several major crises, the most recent of which was the Rebellion of the Seven Kings ten years ago, in search of great treasures. At that time, His Majesty the Emperor disappeared for some reason, and the crowd was leaderless, and they fell into chaos and panic for a while. If there is no Eighth Emperor in the middle of this imperial capital, I am afraid that the consequences are really unimaginable. It was precisely because of the calm and composed response of the Eighth Prince that the center of the empire could maintain normal operation until the emperor returned and put down the rebellion. Of course, it was from then on that His Majesty the Emperor began to leave all kinds of affairs to his son, who made him feel at ease and satisfied, and even joked to him: "If it weren't for your young age and lack of experience, what if this throne would have been given to you? "His Majesty the Emperor's fanaticism for the study of martial arts is not mentioned for the time being, it is the genetic genes of their Lian family, and it is not surprising that it has been like this from generation to generation. But the first half of the sentence somehow spread out of the palace and entered the people, causing a stir all over the city for a while, and even made the people of the imperial capital think that the sky was about to change again. Of course, the rumors stop at the wise, and those who know the inside story are silent about it, and it is useless to guess without knowing the truth, but it just makes some people who once had any thoughts about the throne rein their minds and turn to other plans. Now, in this imperial capital, who dares not to give the Eighth Prince a few thin noodles? Being able to get the Eighth Prince's banquet has become a very glorious thing for a while, but not everyone can get this honor.

Although the Eighth Prince is inconvenient to contact people excessively due to his identity, otherwise he will be suspected of forming a party for personal gain, which is a big taboo. However, it is still okay to drink and chat with three or five friends, and it is even rumored that there are a few times when the emperor personally came to the platform for his children, which for a time attracted the children of the imperial capital to the banquet of the eighth prince, hoping to be favored by His Majesty the emperor at the banquet to become the prince's entourage, so that one day when the eighth prince ascended to that position, he could also ascend to heaven, from the dragon to the dragon, to keep the glory of his family. It's a pity, it also depends on whether the eighth prince is willing or not, right?

"Old Fan, you also know the rules of my banquet, not everyone can come in, in case you bring this little brother today and can't pass the test, then don't blame me for not reminding you in advance. The Eighth Prince reminded with a smile, his eyes shining slightly, revealing cunning.

"Hehe, just your little means, others are afraid of you, but I'm not afraid of you, not to mention the little junior brother behind me, if you don't believe it, you can try. Fan Zhong smiled, and he was not annoyed, and directly let Lian Chen out. In this world, strength speaks, and without strength, even if you accidentally enter a higher circle, you will eventually be kicked out.

Lian Chen was a little surprised when he saw this, didn't he say that he came to eat? Why do you still have to take the exam? Looking at the appearance of the little fat man in front of him, is this going to make it difficult for him?

"Lian boy, you can rest assured, it's just a simple little test, it's harmless, with me here, he won't go too far, today is to let you know the noble children of this imperial capital, and after the province, I don't know each other, and the water washed the Dragon King Temple." Fan Zhongtong seemed to see what Lian Chen was thinking, patted him on the shoulder, and said comfortingly.

"Yes, please. Lian Chen was not polite when he heard this, straightened his waist, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please.

"Okay, but anyone who can enter my banquet is a coquettetteer from all walks of life in the empire, I don't know what kind of specialty Brother Lianchen has?"

"I don't have any specialty, but I'm a mysticist, is that counted?" Lian Chen scratched his head, he really didn't think he had any specialty, and it seemed that the only thing he could do at the moment was his cultivation ability.

"Oh, of course, but how far has my brother cultivated now?" the Eighth Prince asked.

"Grand Sorcerer Fivefold. Lian Chen replied without hesitation, but he didn't hide it.

"How long did it take?" the Eighth Prince asked again

"Well, that's more than ten days. Lian Chen said naturally.

"Oh, being able to cultivate to the fifth level of the Great Magician in ten days is not an insult to your master's prestige. The Eighth Prince said casually, "Wait, what are you talking about, ten ...... Ten days?"

"Well, yes, it's more than ten days, and today it's exactly twenty days. What's wrong?" Lian Chen asked with some amusement, in Lian Chen's feelings, this should be a very simple matter, after all, the cultivation has only been twenty days in total, and this is not counting the few days he wasted on the ship and the days when he fainted in the inn room later.

"It's ...... Really?" When the Eighth Prince Lian Heng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little unacceptable, turned his head to look at Fan Zhongtong, and saw that Fan Zhongtong gave him a positive look, where did he not know that this was all true, and in the end, holding on to the hope of what happened could be regarded as a dying struggle: "You...... How old are you this year?" the Eighth Prince couldn't speak smoothly.

"As of today, I am not yet twelve years old, and I am still half a month old to be twelve?" Lian Chen asked, and couldn't help but be a little strange, isn't this person going to test himself?

Is this part of the ordeal?

What? The Great Martial Artist who is less than twelve years old? Is he crazy and hallucinating, or is this world crazy?

What does a twelve-year-old Great Martial Master mean, he knows very well that he will almost certainly be able to become the top handful of people in this heaven and earth in the future, not to mention that this is the result of only ten days of cultivation.

Rao is eighth prince was also shocked when he saw a lot of knowledge, and hurriedly said: "Master Lian, please, it's abrupt." ”

"What's wrong?" Fan Zhongtong said with a teasing laugh. Fan Zhongtong was full of teasing at this time, how could he have the slightest gentlemanly demeanor?

"Old Fan, you're not interesting enough, don't you want me to lose my weight in front of the newcomer?" said the Eighth Prince sullenly.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you, the situation of the Lianchen kid is indeed a bit special, it's not that my brother intends to embarrass you, I was also shocked when I first learned about it. Fan Zhong sighed with emotion, thinking that he had been cultivating since he was a child, and following Elder Fan to comprehend and practice at any time, and now, after more than 20 years, he will reach the sixfold cultivation of the Great Magician, although some other means are slightly stronger, and it is not impossible to go further with logistics and practice, but how to make up for this gap in innate qualifications?

Thinking of this, Fan Zhongtong couldn't help but feel bitter.

"Then let's go inside. How many of them are waiting here?" said the Eighth Prince. It seems to be able to understand Fan Zhongtong's mood at this time, when Fan Zhongtong apprenticed, he originally planned to worship Lin Sheng as a teacher, but because Lin Sheng didn't think about accepting apprentices at that time, so he didn't succeed, in terms of qualifications, Fan Zhongtong is not bad, cyan nian qi qualification, the body of innate spirit wood, and cultivating the secret technique of the wood system can have twice the result with half the effort, and it can also be called one in a hundred, but it is far from Lin Sheng compared to now. Perhaps, this is what Uncle Lin said back then, right?

When he went to apprentice, Uncle Lin rejected him once with the fate method, saying that the opportunity had not come, and his master could not be him, and now, seeing Lian Chen's qualifications, Fan Zhongtong finally determined one thing, Lian Chen is the fate of his uncle, because only the qualifications of Lian Chen are worthy of a good teacher like Lin Sheng.

Knowing this matter, Fan Zhong was calm in his heart, without any regrets, all actions in the world have a fate, from the heart, stop at reason, and cannot be forced. However, Lin Sheng had brought such an outstanding apprentice out after ten years of going out, and now that he was nearly twenty years old, could he still be confined to this small corner of the imperial capital all day long? Kyushu is so big, who can say that there is no one corner of the Kyushu continent that has its own fate?

Thinking of this, Fan Zhong's mind became active, since this is the case, after today, say goodbye to Elder Fan, and make arrangements, what if I go on a journey?

After all, his current cultivation is still far from enough compared to that incident, and he doesn't want to one day, when it really comes to the showdown, he will do nothing, as long as he can help a little, then his hard work will be worth it. Lian Chen's father is such a glorious person, and his last wish must not end like this. The dead have died heroically, and they have died well, and the living have to look forward, and they must live well together with the share of the dead, so as to live up to the hard work of Lian Chen's father back then.

The plan has been decided, and Fan Zhongtong can't wait to set off immediately, travel all over the mountains and rivers of Kyushu, and find his own opportunity. But the Eighth Prince didn't care about him here, and directly pulled his sleeve and walked inside. Anyway, before leaving, I have to tell these little cubs to take care of my little junior brother, right?
