Chapter 7 The Ninth Prince Comes of Age



"Who is seeking death by breaking into the palace?"

At this time, a loud shout came from the Sutra Library.

Then an old eunuch in a purple robe with golden embroidery flew out from the Sutra Library.

The fight between the two made such a loud noise that it was inevitable that they would be discovered.

"What a slow reaction!"

Li Mu said something in his heart and retreated quietly.

The black-clad expert was stunned for a moment, but it was too late to leave.

The old eunuch in purple flew out of the Sutra Library and set his eyes on him the first time.

"Bold assassin!"

"Fuck you!"

The black-clad expert cursed, slapped the old eunuch, and turned around to continue flying out of the palace.

"Want to escape? First step over our dead bodies."

The old eunuch was also fast and caught up quickly.

"You damn eunuch, if I hadn't just been seriously injured, would you still want to chase me? You're all in hell now."

Boom~

In the distant palace, the blast from the fight between the two men blew away pieces of tiles.

"Who broke into the palace?"

"There's an assassin!"

The masters hiding in various palaces rushed over one after another.

The patrolling guards quickly gathered towards the location where the two men were fighting.

Li Mu hid in the dark and watched for a while, then turned around and returned to Jingning Palace.

After dawn, the Ninth Prince appeared in Jingning Palace.

"Everything was alright in the palace last night?"

"It's okay! Everything is fine. My son, what happened?"

"Last night, an assassin appeared in the palace." The Ninth Prince paused and continued, "Fortunately, the assassin was caught. It was terrifying. It turned out to be the long-lost Han Demon."

"Even Old Demon Han has been captured! Isn't this the famous Han Paopao in the martial arts world? Not only is this man highly skilled in martial arts, but his lightness skills are also well-known throughout the martial arts world. The masters in our Great Xia Palace are truly formidable!"

At this time, it was the old palace maid who spoke.

"That's right. I heard that Old Demon Han was hit by a palm from a master in the palace, so he didn't escape."

Li Mu listened for a while.

I finally know who that brave master was last night.

Han Lao Mo, who has been famous in the martial arts world for a long time.

No wonder he dared to break into the palace alone.

However, he was caught.

Will I be exposed then?

Li Mu pricked up his ears to search for any news of this kind.

"Old Demon Han has been captured. If the news gets out, the whole world will probably be shocked."

Inside the Shangmajian, several eunuchs gathered together and chatted.

Compared to the eunuch in other palaces.

It’s tiring here, but it’s much freer.

There are no extra rules, just complete your daily tasks.

Moreover, distinguished people often come here to ride horses.

The Shangmajian is also a well-informed place in the palace.

"I heard from the eunuch in front of the emperor that Han Lao Mo was seriously injured by a young eunuch this time."

"It must be some old ancestor who has regained his youth."

"I heard that the emperor is also looking for this young eunuch."

"Did you find it?"

"Two imposters were stabbed to death."

Over the next few days, patrols within the palace became more frequent.

Some masters who are not usually seen also appear and disappear at night.

Li Mu originally thought that after the queen's death, those restless people would attack Jingning Palace.

It seems that there will be peace for a while now.

Not to mention that there are many more experts at night.

Even if Han Lao Mo is caught, those hiding in the dark will not dare to act rashly.

Li Mu's daily life is still sweeping the floor.

However, Li Mu discovered something funny these days.

All the people in charge of the big and small tasks near Jingning Palace suddenly became polite to the young eunuch in gray.

Another year passed, and Jingning Palace was still fine.

However, since the Queen's death, the Ninth Prince seemed to have lost his support and came to Jingning Palace less and less frequently.

During this year, Li Mu checked in at many places in the palace, and his cultivation level only improved by one small level.

Li Mu went to all the places in the palace where one could clock in and sign in.

Many places only allow one sign-in.

After a few months, the sign-in rewards became less and less useful to Li Mu.

Qi Gathering Pills, Marrow Cleansing Pills, and Small Rejuvenating Pills are of no use to Li Mu.

The Qi Gathering Pill can still be used if you are below the Xiantian level.

It would be a waste to use the Marrow Cleansing Pill multiple times with his physique.

The small Huandan can still be used in the Yuling realm.

Li Mu's cultivation reached a bottleneck, and he was not as diligent as before.

When bored, a man would tease the little ants in the palace.

Duang~

One day, several bell sounds suddenly came from the clock tower in the palace.

Not long after, a group of eunuchs came to Jingning Palace.

He took off his mourning clothes in Jingning Palace and left.

"The Emperor has passed away!"

The palace was in mourning.

There was sadness everywhere.

After the old emperor dies, the new emperor will take over.

But the old emperor was young and strong, and he had banished Concubine Jing to the cold palace because of the prince's affairs during his lifetime.

The crown prince was deposed, and the new crown prince had not yet been appointed, and his death was too sudden.

Several princes began to fight for the throne.

Two days later, the imperial palace was captured by the imperial guards led by the third prince, and Daxia finally had a little peace.

The third prince succeeded to the throne.

Then he began to eliminate the other princes.

The eldest prince was at the border, and the second and fourth princes were killed by the third prince.

Led by his personal guards, the fifth prince took advantage of the chaos to leave the capital and began a campaign with the support of his maternal relatives.

The noble families behind the second and fourth princes were dissatisfied with the power of the third prince and supported the fifth prince.

The sixth prince in the palace was imprisoned.

There was chaos inside and outside the palace.

The ninth prince was temporarily spared because of his young age.

There are so many princes that their names are confusing enough. Li Mu always can't remember the names of these princes and the families supporting them.
