Chapter 28: A Dangerous Visit

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhu Wuyang never expected that because of the Extraordinary Encounters System, a random book could actually become a treasure vault.

He had only read a few pages of the Purple Bottle Plum, but he had already obtained thousands of breakthrough points.

Speaking of which, as the Crown Prince of a country, why was there such a miscellaneous book in his study?

Who put such a miscellaneous book in the study and framed Zhu Wuyang?

Why didn’t the Extraordinary Encounters System remind him from the beginning? Why did it have to wait until he flipped through a few pages and obtained a lot of indescribable knowledge before sending him a notification?

Could it be that he had read too quickly, or was the Extraordinary Encounters System slacking off again?

… .

Thousands of questions surfaced in Zhu Wuyang’s mind, and in the end, they turned into two words.

How aggrieved!

However, he could only continue to helplessly endure the waves of attacks from the breakthrough points. Helplessness and despair flashed across his exquisite and handsome face. If those ignorant little girls on Earth saw this, they would definitely feel pity for him and be unable to extricate themselves. They would turn into lap puppies…

However, this was not a world of entertainment, nor was it a society where drama was greater than the sky. The tears in the depths of Zhu Wuyang’s eyes were destined to only be savored by himself.

If nothing unexpected happened, after accepting this wave of bombardment from the breakthrough points, his strength should have broken through again.

Zhu Wuyang sighed in his heart and circulated the Grand Earth Limitless Technique with all his might. He absorbed the strange power that surged over and transformed it into the purest Earth Qi and blood to temper his guts.

Soon, Zhu Wuyang finished tempering the last bit of his guts and charged towards the bottleneck.

He had obtained a lot of breakthrough points previously. After Zhu Wuyang advanced to the Five Viscera Refinement realm, there were still many left, so he quickly broke through the bottleneck to the next realm.

Now that another wave of breakthroughs had come, the already weak bottleneck was immediately broken through. This also meant that Zhu Wuyang had broken through again.

Mid-stage of Five Viscera Refinement!

Tempering the liver, stomach, large intestines…

By the time this wave of breakthrough points was digested, Zhu Wuyang’s liver had already been tempered. In other words, it had stabilized his strength at the Mid-stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm..

With the improvement of his five viscera and six bowels, Zhu Wuyang’s overall strength had increased greatly again. Compared to before, it had increased by several times. At this moment, although Zhu Wuyang was only a martial artist who was in the Five Viscera Refinement realm, he could already compare to a Bone Marrow refinement expert.

In the entire Jiu Zhao Nation, there was basically no one at the Bone Marrow refinement realm who could have a stronger and purer Qi and blood than Zhu Wuyang, better strength, or more astonishing defense…

Even martial artists who had reached the Blood Refinement realm were inferior to Zhu Wuyang in many aspects.

He had an innate Divine body, had all his meridians opened, and had a flawless Dao foundation… With the addition of the Grand Earth Limitless Technique. He was really powerful.

Although Zhu Wuyang would rather be more ordinary so that he could live longer, it was a pity that many things in this world could not go as he wished.

Zhu Wuyang could only continue to suffer in silence. He threw down the miscellaneous book, Purple Bottle Plum, and returned to his bed in the bedroom, staring blankly at the roof.

Reading books was really too terrifying. He could actually obtain so many breakthrough points. Zhu Wuyang was so frightened that he didn’t even dare to read anymore. It was better to blank out so that he wouldn’t be harassed by the breakthrough points.

“Congratulations to the host for being free for the first time in your life. You have received 300 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for being in a daze for the first time in your life. You have received 300 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for seeing a fly for the first time in your life. You have received 300 breakthrough points…”

… .

Oh my god, it could even be counted as a special encounter like this. System, can you be any more boring?

Zhu Wuyang sighed and circulated the Grand Earth Limitless Technique to absorb the strange power that was forcefully injected into him. He began to increase his strength again.

Although the Extraordinary Encounters System always found an opportunity to reward him, to be honest, because he only stayed in the bedroom, the breakthrough points that Zhu Wuyang obtained were reduced by at least ten times.

If Zhu Wuyang were to walk around the palace or do something else like the original owner of the body, the breakthrough points he would have obtained would have long allowed him to advance to the Bone Marrow Refinement Realm or even the Blood Refinement Realm.

However, the result of this was that the original host would not live for more than half a month.

Now that he was staying in the bedroom, the breakthrough points he obtained were greatly reduced. At the same time, Zhu Wuyang avoided many dangers.

If he could stay in this mansion and endure until the Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu was finished, it would actually not be too bad.

However, as the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation, a big shot who was second only to one person, and also one at the center of the storm, how could Zhu Wuyang stay at home peacefully?

During dinner, Zhu Wuyang received news from the head eunuch, Wei Ancai. The mother of the 89th Prince, Zhu Libo, had returned to the palace today. After learning about Zhu Wuyang’s “self-immolation” yesterday, she was rather worried about him, so she wanted to visit him tomorrow.

If not for the fact that Zhang Mingli had returned late today and as the Mad Emperor’s favorite concubine, it was not appropriate for her to visit Zhu Wuyang so late at night, Zhang Mingli would probably have come to see him today.

According to the previous body’s memories, Consort Li was one of the Mad Emperor’s favorite concubines. She had great power in the palace and was also related to this body’s mother to a certain extent. She was one of the good friends of his mother.

Therefore, after knowing about his “self-immolation” attempt, it was normal for Zhang Mingli to be so concerned about him.

However, when he thought about how the head eunuch, Wei Ancai, and the deputy director, Xiao Fuzi, were the people that the 89th Prince, Zhu Libo, had arranged to be by his side, Zhu Wuyang felt that Zhang Mingli and her son were not as amiable as they seemed.

From the original body’s memories, before he became the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation, Zhang Mingli and Zhu Libo were not as close as they were now. In the past, they would at most give him some ordinary gifts during the New Year.

It was also from the moment he became the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation that Zhang Mingli and Zhu Libo suddenly became more attentive to him. They sent eunuchs, palace maids, and all kinds of silk and satin… Zhu Wuyang did not believe that there was nothing fishy about this.

Apart from that, after the original owner of the body became the Crown Prince, he had heard guards and palace maids deliberately chatting outside his door. They said that before Zhu Wuyang became the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation, the 89th Prince, Zhu Libo, was actually one of the most popular among the numerous Princes and Princesses to succeed the position of Crown Prince.

However, under the efforts of Zhu Libo and some other Princes and Princesses, in the end, Zhu Wuyang, the Prince who had the least presence, became the new Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation and sat in this position of certain death.

Although it was not confirmed to be true, there might be a reason for the rumors.
