Hearing his words, Zu'an sneered inwardly. Heh, this old sly man has cheated and sold out countless people. Now he's acting like a prostitute and trying to build a memorial archway.
At this moment, the Crown Prince slowly spoke: "Back then, I asked Mi Lianying to lead people to find the way to immortality. He spent decades searching all over the country and found a method of body seizure. At first, I looked down on it. However, Mi Lianying was unable to find the way to immortality. As I was approaching the five signs of decay, I had no choice but to start researching that method of body seizure."
"Possession is against the will of Heaven, and the success rate is extremely low. There are only two ways to increase the success rate: one is to cultivate the same technique, and the other is to target a direct blood relative. Therefore, Ruizhi is the first choice," the Crown Prince said with a look of reminiscence. "However, Zhao Jing has been watching from the sidelines, and I have to suppress him at all times. It is inconvenient to possess him so early, but I dare not leave it until my last day, because if I fail, I will be doomed. Later, I thought of a way that satisfies both sides: to first separate a wisp of my soul and inject it into Ruizhi's body."
"Humans have three souls and seven spirits. The seven spirits represent joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire, while the three souls are the heavenly soul, the earthly soul, and the life soul."
"The experiment was a perfect success. A wisp of my soul successfully entered Ruizhi's body and replaced his own life soul. However, I cannot control his body at all times. I usually lie dormant. Since the life soul governs thought and wisdom, and his own life soul is damaged, he usually appears somewhat dull."
"I guessed that Zhao Jing would definitely have some plans for this secret realm test, but I was not sure what his plans were. So I bestowed a wisp of energy upon Linglong so that she could use it to save her life in times of crisis. After she uses it, my wisp of soul will be able to awaken smoothly. That way, no matter what Zhao Jing's plans are, I can still suppress the entire scene."
Zuan was speechless. He was indeed a cunning old fox. What he gave Bi Linglong was not a life-saving measure, but a "clock" to wake him up. Bi Linglong had been kept in the dark from beginning to end.
Lu Xiao also sighed, "Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Your Majesty."
The Crown Prince stood with his hands behind his back, a satisfied smile on his face: "There's no need to thank me. It's just that I haven't been able to share my brilliant plans with anyone over the years. It's like wearing fine clothes in the dark. Today, I finally have an audience, and my thoughts are clear."
Lu Xiao's expression changed. He knew he was doomed after those words. He was about to try to switch sides when the other party raised his hand and pointed, instantly creating a bloody hole between his eyebrows, and then his life was cut off.
After dealing with Lu Xiao, the Crown Prince went to Pu Duandiao and Jiao Sigun on the other side: "Huh, they're still alive."
After saying that, he raised his hand, clearly intending to silence him.
Seeing this, Zu An's heart skipped a beat. Just then, the Crown Prince suddenly turned around and stared in his direction: "Who's over there?"
