Xiao Chen said calmly. Wu De seemed to be scared silly and did not reply for a long time. Seeing this, Chu Wuming shouted coldly, "Did you not hear what brother Xiao Chen said?"
Being shouted at by Chu Wuming, Wu De hurriedly nodded and replied, "Yes, yes, I understand."
He did not expect that Chu Wuming would favor Xiao Chen so much. At this moment, Wu De did not have any desire for revenge and replied with fear. Seeing this, Xiao Chen did not say anything and turned to Chu Wuming and cupped his hands.
"Your Highness, please go back. I am indebted to Your Highness for your kindness today. Xiao Chen is in fear and trepidation. It is already late, I will not disturb Your Highness any longer."
"Brother Xiao Chen, please take care. I have already ordered someone to prepare a carriage to send Brother Xiao back to the city. I will not see you off." Chu Wuming replied.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After bidding farewell to Chu Wuming, Xiao Chen left the Illusory Moon Pavilion with Gu Xiu and the other two. They sat in the carriage that Chu Wuming had prepared for them and headed towards Moon Trace City.
He was not worried that Wu De would deceive him. As long as Wu Yun was there, Wu De would definitely not dare to lie. This was a smart woman. She knew that this was the only chance that Xiao Chen gave Wu De to survive. Therefore, not only Wu De, but Wu Yun would also personally visit those who had been hurt by Wu De and try her best to seek their forgiveness. At the same time, she would also give them generous compensation.
Whether or not he killed Wu De did not affect Xiao Chen in the slightest. He was not afraid that Wu De would seek revenge in the future. Not to mention whether he had the ability, just by looking at Wu De's appearance just now, he knew that Wu De no longer had the courage to take revenge on him.
After Xiao Chen left, Wu De left the Illusory Moon Pavilion alone. At the same time, standing on the roof of the pavilion, Chu Wuming looked at the stars in the sky. Beside him, Wu Yun said softly, "What does Your Highness think of Xiao Chen? Is it the good horse that Your Highness has been looking for? "
"Even though I haven't had much contact with him, I'm able to discern that Xiao Chen isn't an ordinary person. If I'm able to obtain his assistance, then perhaps I'll be able to hold on for a period of time and search for other methods to get out of this situation. However, this only treats the symptoms and not the root of the problem. Without the support of a Dao Emperor Realm expert, I'll always be inferior to my two brothers. Alas …"
As he finished speaking, Chu Wuming sighed lightly. An expert at the Dao Emperor Realm was like a thorn that was deeply embedded in Chu Wuming's heart. Without an expert at the Dao Emperor Realm, everything was just an illusion.
His eyes carried a wisp of helplessness and unwillingness. When she saw this, the nearby Wu Yun consoled. "Your Highness, there's no need for that. With Your Highness' great ability and strategy, I firmly believe that Your Highness will be able to ascend the position of Crown Prince even if you don't have the support of a Dao Emperor Realm expert."
"You don't understand. Without the support of a Dao Emperor Realm expert, everything I do is like a pavilion in the sky, and it might collapse at any moment. Nevermind, let's not talk about this. I'll be heading to the Heavenly Stellar Residence tomorrow, and I might be staying in Moontrace City for a few more days. During these few days, quickly bring your younger brother along and complete Brother Xiao Chen's request. Otherwise, if Brother Xiao Chen wants to kill your younger brother, then I won't stop him. Do you understand? "Obviously, Chu Wuming wasn't willing to continue thinking about these annoying matters, so he changed the topic. As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the pavilion.
As she gazed at Chu Wuming's figure, Wu Yun bowed respectfully and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I know what to do."
Chu Wuming had already decided to head to the Heavenly Stellar Residence tomorrow. At the same time, Xiao Chen and the others had returned safely to Moontrace City. When they arrived outside the Heavenly Stellar Residence, Xiao Chen's group of four got off the carriage and walked into the Heavenly Stellar Residence. As they walked, Gu Xiu asked in a low voice from the side.
"Young Master, what sort of compensation did Chu Wuming give you?"
Earlier, they were on Chu Wuming's carriage, and the driver of the carriage was one of Chu Wuming's men, so Gu Xiu couldn't ask about it. At this moment, there were no outsiders, so Gu Xiu naturally couldn't help but ask curiously.
Hearing Gu Xiu's words, Xiao Chen faintly smiled and said, "You don't say, this Chu Wuming is indeed not bad. He did give me some good stuff, and its value is completely comparable to thirty Illusionary Moon Fruits."
In the previous conversation, Chu Wuming gave Xiao Chen a Storage Ring. Within the Storage Ring, there were many medicinal pills and talismans. Moreover, many of these talismans and medicinal pills were things that had never been seen before in the Heavenly Stellar Continent. Furthermore, their ranks weren't low either, all of them reaching the Heaven Rank.
Among them, the talismans were practically all used to save one's life. There were defensive talismans, speed talismans, and medicinal pills that were beneficial to cultivation. It could be said that the value of this Storage Ring was absolutely not low. From this, it was enough to see that Chu Wuming intended to recruit Xiao Chen.
Only after hearing Xiao Chen's reply did Gu Xiu smile in satisfaction. Just like this, this trip to the Illusionary Moon Gathering could be considered as not a wasted trip.
Along the way to the front yard of the Heavenly Stellar Residence, Xiao Chen said to Gu Xiu and the other two, "I'm going to see Uncle Tian. There's something that I need to discuss. The three of you should also rest."
There were still things that he needed to discuss with the Burning Sky Ruler. Hearing these words, Gu Xiu and the other two consciously nodded their heads and replied. Immediately after, Xiao Chen came to the main yard by himself.
He gently knocked on the door of the Burning Sky Ruler's room. Very quickly, the Burning Sky Ruler's voice sounded from within the room. "Chen 'er, right? Come in."
Hearing these words, Xiao Chen pushed the door and entered. He sat down in the room and first gave a simple explanation of the Illusionary Moon Gathering to the Burning Sky Ruler. After which, he handed the two Storage Rings over to the Burning Sky Ruler.
After receiving the two Storage Rings from Xiao Chen, the Burning Sky Ruler said with a smile, "You're saying that the Third Prince of the Moonless Empire wants to recruit you to help him fight for the position of Crown Prince?"
"That's right." Xiao Chen said.
"You can't agree to this. We haven't gained a firm foothold in the Heavenly Chen Continent yet. It's not wise to rashly get involved in the struggle for power in the Imperial Family. Reject him tomorrow."
The Burning Sky Ruler didn't hesitate to reject Chu Wuming's recruitment. However, after hearing his words, Xiao Chen had a different opinion.
"Uncle Tian, don't be in a hurry to reject him. Indeed, we've just arrived in the Heavenly River Continent and haven't gained a firm foothold in the Heavenly River Continent yet. However, I think that helping Chu Wuming will bring us great benefits."
"Benefits? Chen 'er, do you know that if we help the Third Prince, we'll be getting involved in the struggle for power in the Imperial Family? Even if there will be benefits, it will also be accompanied by great danger. Moreover, with me here, why should we be afraid of the Moonless Empire's Imperial Family? "
The Burning Sky Ruler didn't know that the Moonless Empire's Imperial Family had two almighty Dao Emperors. Perhaps from the Burning Sky Ruler's point of view, the Moonless Empire's Imperial Family only had one almighty Dao Emperor. As such, with his strength, he naturally didn't need to fear the Imperial Family, the Chu Family.
Hearing the Burning Sky Ruler's words, Xiao Chen moved his mouth close to the Burning Sky Ruler's ear and said softly, "Uncle Tian, I feel that we shouldn't be enemies with the Imperial Family. At the very least, we shouldn't directly start a war. Today, from Chu Wuming, I've already found out that the Moonless Empire's Imperial Family has two almighty Dao Emperors."
