The place where Cheng Qian was located was considered a provincial capital on the frontier.

The purpose of his coming here was to purchase some monster flesh and blood.

Essential for chain repair and body strengthening exercises.

He now really attaches great importance to this kind of skills.

The male monks have to be tough and cannot beat you, so their survivability will naturally be very strong.

In the past, I had a narrow mindset and thought that body training was just a supplement, or even a last resort.

Now, it seems that this body-refining technique is very important for cultivators, just look at the Ninth Prince.

This is equivalent to having half a life.

If he had been more prepared, the Ninth Prince might not even have been injured.

This guy had taken several Nascent Soul level attacks.

Cheng Qian looked at it with envy.

I searched several places for a suitable set of exercises to replace the previous auxiliary body-building exercises.

"The Four Symbols Evil-Suppressing Body Tempering Method", a Jindan Stage practice method.

Visualize the four symbols, and then refine the blood and energy of the monster, use the visualization method to form blood evil energy, and polish the body.

It is said that when one cultivates the chain to perfection, one can possess the body of four symbols and the power of four symbols.

The reason I chose this set of exercises is not because it is highly praised, but because it is simply easy to practice.

You can practice by spending money, and absorb blood and energy from the flesh and blood of monsters.

It consumes a huge amount of resources, but the progress of cultivation is faster.

That's why he came to the frontier prefecture of the dynasty. The people in this place are tough, there are big mountains and rivers nearby, and there are abundant monster resources.

Another day of practice ended and he scratched his head.

Recently, he discovered a problem after he revised the "Four Symbols Evil-Suppressing Body Tempering Method".

When the blood and qi are being refined and absorbed into the body to ward off evil, a part of the blood and qi will always disappear.

Disappeared out of thin air.

This made him feel a little annoyed, and he didn't know if it was because of the technique or something else.

I was a little worried at first, but as time went by, I got used to it.

It was as if something between heaven and earth was drawn out after he refined his blood and energy.

Qin Xu's work was progressing smoothly, so Cheng Qian decided to reward himself.

Let's have some wine tonight and then have some hotpot.

I went out for some shopping and passed by a bookstore.

I went in and took a look around out of habit, picked out a few interesting spells and bought them.

Most of them are small spells for survival in the wild.

For example, tracer method.

In addition to using it in the wild, he had other ideas. He could use his refined blood and energy. He wanted to see where that part of the blood and energy went.

Back in the small courtyard where he temporarily rented a house, he began to practice the chain tracer method.

Magic is not difficult, but it takes some hard work to practice it to perfection.

As long as it works, it's fine.

Cheng Qian used the tracer method on the flesh and blood of the monster he had just bought.

Refine the blood and qi according to normal methods.

Sure enough, while absorbing, a trace of blood and energy disappeared.

Fortunately, his mind was not completely focused on cultivation, but he instead devoted a part of his attention to the tracing method.

He just vaguely felt that part of the blood flying into the sky.

Is it really as he expected?

Is this the rule of this world? A portion of the blood and energy must return to heaven and earth?

He smiled and ignored all this and continued practicing.

The residence of the ninth prince of the imperial city.

Qin Xu came to pay his respects.

"You mean the Holy Emperor has transferred you to the Overwatch Council?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"How is that possible? The Overwatch Council is..."

Qin Xu looked at the Ninth Prince in confusion.

"Forget it. Since the Holy Emperor has asked you to go to the Overwatch Council, then you should just stay there and don't come to my place often in the future."

"Your Highness, you may need to handle the Ministry of Justice yourself in the future."

"Sir, what should I do next?"

"I suggest you push all the problems onto me, and you just pretend you don't know and just go through the motions."

"This is inappropriate."

"This is the best way for you. Of course, it would be even easier if you had some evidence."

"What do you mean?"

Of course he had evidence in his hand. Regarding the stone with the photo of the Second Prince, he hesitated again and again and had not yet handed it over to the Holy Emperor.

I didn't use the information about aristocratic families I had to find any of them.

"Just pull down a big shot, king against king."

"To put it bluntly, you and I are both pieces on the chessboard. If you think about jumping out, you'll just smash the chessboard."

"I extended the matter to all officials in the imperial city and investigated corruption, and I jumped out of this assassination case."

"And you are the center of the vortex. If you want to jump out, only a heavyweight can be pulled down."

"That way, the higher-ups will try to calm things down and not kill the big shots."

The Ninth Prince thought about it again and again, and it was indeed as Qin Xu said, he was now placed on the chessboard by the Holy Emperor or the monks in the temple.

If you want to get out, you have to take extraordinary measures, otherwise you will be dragged down by this case.

He couldn't be like Qin Xu. After all, the final outcome would be different if someone took the blame or died directly.

"If that's the case, isn't it too early to make enemies?"

"Your Highness, from the moment you stepped into the Imperial City, you have already declared your participation in this battle for the throne."

"The battle has already begun."

The Ninth Prince was stunned for a moment.

It is true that a bystander sees more clearly. Yes, it has actually already begun.

"Then let me light the first fire?"

"Your Highness, you cannot take a single step back now. If you do, you will fall into an abyss."

"I have helped you capture four ministers. At least you now have some people who can support you in this imperial city, and some people who can do the work."

Qin Xu strongly encouraged the Ninth Prince to leave immediately.

If it was the day before, he would have persuaded the Ninth Prince to stay alive a little longer and not be in a hurry.

The more times like this happen, the more we need to stay calm.

That was his consideration from the perspective of the Ninth Prince.

He knew that the Ninth Prince had the Photo Stone in his hand. Since the Holy Emperor did not arrest the person directly but arranged such a so-called "assassination case", it proved that the Ninth Prince did not hand over the Photo Stone in his hand.

So he now wanted to give some advice to the Ninth Prince, urging him to defeat the slow with the fast.

After all, the positions are different.

Before, he was the Ninth Prince's man, and they shared prosperity and adversity together.

At worst, I can sacrifice this clone and then introduce a "junior brother" to him.

Make plans for the Ninth Prince, such as uncovering a major case, bringing down some people, and then replacing them with his own people.

For example, treating someone to a meal, beheading him, or accepting him as a dog.

Now he is a loyal member of the Holy Emperor faction, so he will definitely accept the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor.

The Ninth Prince, the Ninth Prince’s role now is to be reckless.

By opening up the situation, he took the opportunity to see if he could gain some benefits.

As for whether the Ninth Prince would be attacked by everyone, it had nothing to do with him.

Before, he was the one who broke the impasse for the Ninth Prince.

Now, the Ninth Prince is his breakthrough person.

The Ninth Prince is now isolated and helpless, and is hated by the Holy Emperor. He is in a panic, and his previous actions have a certain impact on him.

These words of persuasion can play the greatest value at this moment.

It can also be regarded as revenge for being used in Qianyuan County.

After this, no one owes anyone anything.

"I'll think about it."

The Ninth Prince sat alone in the hall.

He had some suspicions that Qin Xu had bad intentions. His attitude and methods towards those ministers made him a little wary.

It's absolutely vicious and cruel.

But does he have a choice?

The Holy Emperor had a confusing attitude. He never summoned his own son even after he was assassinated, and even arranged a big task for his son who was recovering from the injury.

The officials in the court were also very ambiguous, as if they were trying to exclude him and insert people in his place.

And those princes didn't even take any action.

Even the Feng family that Qin Xu had brought in, up to now, the Feng family members in the Nascent Soul stage have not made any moves.

In his understanding, even if it wasn't the Feng family's ancestor who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, there was at least an elder or clan leader at the Nascent Soul stage who came to talk to him.

It was so calm that he was a little confused.

"Sure enough, after being away from the center of power for a long time, I can't keep up with everyone's pace."

Said somewhat angrily.

Then he looked ferocious.

"I'll do it. At worst, I'll be demoted again!"

He ordered his men to pack their clothes.

Dress neatly.

He planned to take the photo stone and go meet his father, the Holy Emperor who was looking down at them from above his head.
