After thinking for a moment, Chen Heng looked at the carriage in the distance and looked away.
No matter what he thought, he had to find a suitable opportunity first.
As Chen Heng thought to himself, a voice sounded out not too far away.
"Lord Yu."
In the distance, a voice sounded out, breaking Chen Heng's thoughts.
Chen Heng looked up and saw a young girl in the distance.
The young girl's appearance was delicate and pretty, and she wore a simple yet elegant robe. She looked to be a bit young, only about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was still at the age where she had yet to bloom.
However, from what Chen Heng remembered, the Liunan King, Song Qi, was only about this old and was not very old.
"Miss Li."
As per usual, Chen Heng lowered his head and asked, "Is His Highness awake?"
In the previous ambush, someone had gotten close to the Liunan Prince, and even though he had been forced back by Chen Heng's previous self, he had fallen unconscious.
It seemed that he had woken up.
"Yes."
Looking down at Chen Heng, the young woman's expression was quite respectful as she said, "His Highness has woken up and is calling for you."
"I understand."
Chen Heng nodded and did not say anything else.
He looked around and made sure that there was nothing out of the ordinary before getting off his horse and walking towards the carriage.
"Is it Commander Yu?"
As Chen Heng approached the carriage, a voice sounded out. It sounded quite weak, like the voice of a weak young man.
After a while, the curtain on the carriage was pulled aside, and a young man's appearance appeared before Chen Heng.
The young man wore a golden robe, which looked quite luxurious. However, his face was somewhat pale, and it seemed that his mental state was not very good.
However, despite this, the young man had a unique air about him. Even though he looked quite helpless, he seemed quite confident, as if he had a card up his sleeve.
This young man was the Liunan Prince, Song Qi. He was the person Chen Heng was escorting this time.
Looking at the young man, Chen Heng felt quite surprised.
He did not know if he was mistaken, but he felt that compared to his previous self, this Liunan Prince seemed somewhat different.
Even though his appearance had not changed, his aura and air had greatly changed, and Chen Heng could tell that there was something different about him.
Compared to changes in appearance, aura and air were even more difficult to change.
In just a few short days, how did the young man before him undergo such a huge change?
Chen Heng inwardly frowned, feeling that something was off.
However, Song Qi did not care about Chen Heng's feelings at all.
"Commander Yu, what's the situation like now?"
On the carriage, Song Qi said with a serious expression.
"While Your Highness was unconscious, some bandits came, but they were repelled by this subordinate. As for the past few days, everything has been peaceful."
Chen Heng's expression was calm, "I trust that Your Highness will be able to return after some time."
"It's not that simple."
Looking at Chen Heng, Song Qi shook his head, "The Northern Nine Bandits are the rulers of this plains, and those bandits are actually their spies.
"Now that they've discovered our location, they'll probably make a move soon …"
"Perhaps, tonight …"
"Tonight …"
Chen Heng frowned, "This subordinate has already checked, and there are no spies around. Even if they wanted to investigate, they wouldn't …"
"In the vast plains, it would be very difficult to find a few people …"
Song Qi coughed a few times, a cold look on his face, "However, what if there are spies in our group who are spies and are giving us information?"
"What?"
Chen Heng felt quite startled and felt that this was quite strange.
Long ago, after those attacks, the original Chen Heng had felt that something was off, and he felt that someone in the group was most likely giving the other side information.
However, even his previous self had only suspected this and was not as certain as Song Qi.
Moreover, the way that Song Qi was acting was different from how he was in the past.
In the past, she had always displayed a weak appearance and had no opinions of her own. She had never acted like this before.
Why had he changed so much in just one night?
Chen Heng felt quite confused, but his expression remained the same, seeming quite shocked.
"Commander Yu …"
Song Qi coughed a few times and asked, "Can I trust you?"
"Of course …"
Chen Heng's expression was serious as he nodded, "If Your Highness has any orders, this subordinate will definitely not disobey!"
"Very well."
Song Qi nodded and said, "Come closer."
Chen Heng felt quite wary, but he looked quite serious as he slowly got closer.
Within the carriage, he slowly got closer to Song Qi.
A wave of information quickly flowed into Chen Heng's mind.
At first, this information was quite chaotic, but it quickly gathered in Chen Heng's mind, turning into mysterious and complicated words before forming an incredibly profound magic technique.
Bright Moon Foundation Technique!
"This is …!"
Chen Heng's eyes widened as he looked at Song Qi, his face filled with shock.
Strictly speaking, he wasn't faking his current performance.
According to the memories that Chen Heng had inherited from his previous self, this was a world of martial arts. When martial arts experts cultivated to a high level, they could move mountains and drain seas, and they could single-handedly defeat enemies.
However, the magic technique that Song Qi had just given him was of a completely different system.
That was a system known as cultivators. They used Spirit Qi as a guide to build their own foundation, the truth of tomorrow and earth …
This was a cultivation system, and it was very different from ordinary martial arts techniques.
"There are many collections within the royal family …"
Song Qi's face was pale as he looked at Chen Heng and said, "This is a magic technique that I obtained by chance when I was young. It is an ancient cultivator's legacy …
"Now, I will give this magic technique to you," he said softly.
He opened his mouth and spoke softly. After he finished speaking, it was as if he was fighting a war.
It was as if he had used up a lot of his essence qi.
Standing in front of him, Chen Heng fell silent.
An ancient cultivator's legacy …
He thought of the choices he had before entering the Azure Heaven Realm, and one of them was to be a cultivator.
It seemed that just like the Sorcerer World's Sorcerers and Knights, this world also had cultivators and martial artists.
He just did not know what the differences were.
"I have already entrusted my secret to you; would Commander Yu be willing to be honest with me?"
Sitting in the carriage, Song Qi looked at Chen Heng and spoke seriously.
At that moment, he felt incredibly nervous.
He knew that his actions were incredibly risky.
However, because of his understanding of his predicament and his trust in Chen Yu, he still chose to take the risk and put all his chips on the line.
Under his gaze, Chen Heng fell silent for a moment before finally moving.
"I am willing to die for Your Highness."
Within the carriage, Chen Heng remained silent for a long time before raising his head and saying seriously, "I am Your Highness's guard and should be loyal to Your Highness …
"It's enough for me to hear your words."
Hearing this, Song Qi gave a slight smile.
He knew that with Chen Heng's personality, since he had already said this, he would not change his mind.
This step of the plan had already succeeded.
Next, all he had to do was …
Chen Heng stayed in the carriage for a long time before leaving.
As he left the carriage, his expression looked very normal, as if there was nothing wrong with him.
It was as if nothing had happened.
