For several consecutive days, the Ninth Prince did not leave the inner court.

Chen Shiyan gradually became more and more presumptuous, collecting the spirit stones and becoming even more aggressive.

Even those monks who were killed by him did not hate him as much as before.

If you see him on the streets of the county town, people will look at him with pity.

He's just like a young son-in-law who has been driven crazy.

Of course, some monks still speak dirty words behind people's backs.

It was fortunate that Chen Shiyan couldn't hear it, otherwise even if he knew that things were not what they thought and didn't care, he would still be very angry!

The things said behind my back were really harsh.

During this period, Chen Shiyan lived in Dou Zhengyuan's small house. He guarded the ruins together with the guards from the imperial city.

Wu Guiming walked into the yard and looked at the dazed County Magistrate Chen, feeling understanding or sympathy in his heart.

Ninth Prince, this is a bit too much. How can you be so blatant?

I don't want any reputation at all.

It is not without reason that Lord Chen likes spirit stones. As a son-in-law, nothing else is reliable except his strength and spirit stones.

"Sir." Wu Guiming called softly.

"Hmm? Gui Ming, what's the matter?"

"This is the latest income. It's 940,000 spirit stones. The three of us rounded it up for you."

Chen Shiyan didn't think much about it and thought that his subordinates were just feeling uneasy because they took too much.

In fact, the three of them discussed it and thought that an integer would sound nice and would also make the county magistrate happier and stop thinking about those dirty things.

"That's thoughtful. The income during this period is good. It seems that the arrival of His Royal Highness the Prince has attracted a group of people. It's a pity."

Wu Guiming didn't know what Chen Shiyan was regretting.

In the short term, Chen Shiyan will not be able to send it outside.

The current Qianyuan County, or Qianyuan Island, has been essentially blocked, with entry but no exit allowed.

This is also the reason why they were able to squeeze out so many spirit stones during this period of time.

The spirit stone stays here, and his danger increases with every day.

Does the Ninth Prince know the spiritual stone in his hand? Even if the Ninth Prince doesn't like this little bit of soup.

Where is that Yuanying Zhenjun?

What about those monks at the peak of the Golden Core stage?

Will things that are within easy reach be less attractive?

To be honest, he was a little afraid of being slaughtered like a pig.

Even if you hand it over, who will you hand it over to?

Did you hand it all in?

The moment you hand over the spirit stone, you are showing your weakness, and if you show your weakness, someone will come and try it.

He was not afraid of death, but he didn't want to die so meaninglessly.

The two chatted for a while, and then a minor official walked into the courtyard.

The petty official also felt mixed emotions.

The people in Chen County were a bit violent, but they were nice to their subordinates.

From the grand government office, to this cramped little courtyard.

As their superiors, these petty officials still felt a little sad.

Of course, I also admire Mr. Chen for being able to endure what ordinary people cannot endure.

"Sir, the Ninth Prince wants to see you now. Please go to the county government office."

The clerk was good at speaking and translated the Ninth Prince's words in a more polite way.

The original words were, go call Chen Shiyan and ask him to come see me as soon as possible!

"Okay, I understand."

Chen Shiyan didn't know what the Ninth Prince was going to do next. He picked up the storage bag containing a million spirit stones in his hand, and put it down again.

Wu Guiming naturally saw this scene as well, and finally saw Lord Chen put the bag of spirit stones back on the table.

"You save it first."

"Sir, would you like to give some tribute to the Ninth Prince?"

"I worked hard to earn this."

Watching Chen Shiyan leave the yard.

Wu Guiming understood that Lord Chen was reluctant to let go.

Alas, sometimes you have to give up superficial wealth to gain long-term success. My lord, you are confused.

But he won't advise this.

I can't persuade them. It's like this with many things. If you don't step into it yourself, it's hard to believe what others say that there is a big pit ahead.

Only when you come out of the pit with a bruised face will you regret not listening to the advice.

But sometimes the price is high.

Is this a spiritual stone in your hand?

This is a death warrant.

He felt that this time, Lord Chen had stepped into a deep pit and it would be difficult to climb out.

Chen Shiyan came to the inner court that he was familiar with, on the terrace.

Only the eunuch and the ninth prince were there.

The Ninth Prince held a glass of wine and looked in the direction of the ruins.

"Have a drink."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Chen Shiyan took the wine glass from the eunuch and drank it in one gulp, very neatly.

"Are you not afraid that I will poison you to death?"

"Your Highness, there is no need to go to such lengths. Just tell me and I can self-destruct for you."

"Hahahaha, I kind of admire you."

"You're too kind."

"Yun Ling told me about you. I think she's right. You're not as simple as you seem."

Chen Shiyan didn't say anything.

He didn't know why the Ninth Prince called him here. Silence might not be the best way, but it was definitely not the worst way.

"I have learned a lot about you in Qianyuan County in the past two years. You are ruthless, thick-skinned and black-hearted."

He took a sip of the wine and continued.

"Oh, yes, he is flexible and knows how to judge the situation."

"I didn't call you here for anything else, I just wanted to chat with you."

"I am humbled and grateful for your respect, Your Highness."

"When we met at Huang's house, I felt that you and I were similar in some ways."

"Now it seems that's not the case. I didn't expect that we are the same kind of people in another aspect."

"Your Highness means..."

"You are using the Huang family's identity to make a fortune, so go to the Sword Territory."

"What you showed was nothing more than to confuse them, like Fan Jixiu and Huang Shangshan."

"Your Taishan is probably waiting for you to lose your patience and go to him to complain, and then he will let you take the lead in reporting me."

"I really don't know about that. Master Taishan does have some ideas."

"Your purpose is very clear. Fan Chixiu, Yunling, or your old Taishan, even Qianyuan County, Bibo Mansion, and the entire dynasty are just passers-by on your path of cultivation."

Chen Shiyan had some beads of sweat on his head at the right time.

What the superior person likes most is that he can guess what you are thinking and you are unilaterally transparent to him.

"It's the same for me. I also have only one goal."

Chen Shiyan suddenly figured out a lot of things in his mind.

At the same time, there are many more things that I can’t understand.

For example, after thinking through the previous speculation, it turned out that he was indeed defiling himself.

I just couldn't understand why I had to wade into the muddy waters of Qianyuan County Ruins.

"Do you know how many people outside Qianyuan County want to kill me?"

"Your Highness, I am terrified."

Is this something he can listen to?

Is it that the next plot is that you know too much and then you kill the person?

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. You're doing a pretty good job stirring up trouble here."

"Besides, there is no conflict of interest between you and me. I can let you take the spirit stone away safely, and even give you more."

"I don't know what your highness wants me to do."

"Once you enter the ruins, just detonate your jade talismans."

"I adjusted the position for you and added a little more ingredients."

Chen Shiyan was full of questions. What the hell was this Ninth Prince doing?

"Your Highness trusts me so much?"

"I don't trust you, so I'll have someone go with you, but you have to do the work."

“It seems like there is no choice.”

The Ninth Prince laughed again.

"Smart guy."

Chen Shiyan couldn't figure out what the Ninth Prince was going to do.

When he was led to the stairs by the eunuch, the Ninth Prince spoke again.

"Then you should come in with me. It's not a good idea to stay outside."

Chen Shiyan was thinking all the way, especially the last words of the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince is going to enter the ruins?

Why blow up the passage again?

Isn't this burying yourself in it?

Could it be that the Nascent Soul cultivator is a fourth-level formation master and also followed in?

Combined with the situation on the main body's side, he is now increasingly confused about the Ninth Prince's actions.

"It's definitely not directed at me, then who is it directed at?"
