"Marchioness Yi, what are you laughing at?"
Wang Chong was perplexed. Could it be that he had just told a funny joke? Furthermore, that gaze... was really uncomfortable.
"Hehe, brat, do you know why so many ladies suddenly appeared?"
Marchioness Yi couldn't help but laugh.
Those words left Wang Chong surprised. It was a question that struck a chord in Wang Chong's heart. He was still perplexed by the matter, but Marchioness Yi seemed to know something about it.
"Marchioness Yi, you know?"
Wang Chong's curiosity was piqued.
"Hehe, look at your expression, it's too hilarious!"
Marchioness Yi clutched her stomach as she laughed even louder.
"Marchioness Yi, hurry up and speak! What is going on? "
Seeing Marchioness Yi trying to keep him in suspense, Wang Chong stomped his feet anxiously.
"Hehe, think about it. Can't you guess it at all?"
Marchioness Yi's gaze toward Wang Chong grew even more bizarre.
"How would I know..."
Wang Chong was filled with hatred. Marchioness Yi's words left him wanting to beat her up. Yet, she was so powerful that he wasn't a match for her.
Just as he was gritting his teeth in hatred, a thought suddenly flashed across Wang Chong's mind.
"Second Sister! ... Is it your Second Sister's doing? "
Wang Chong looked at Marchioness Yi.
To make Marchioness Yi think that he should know and create such a huge ruckus just to tease him, the only person Wang Chong could think of was his Second Sister.
This time, Marchioness Yi laughed even louder. Clutching her stomach, she couldn't even straighten her back.
No matter how slow Wang Chong was, he knew that he had guessed correctly.
Second Sister!
The sudden appearance of so many ladies in the vicinity of the Deflecting Blade Manor was indeed related to Second Sister.
"Hehe, I'm dying of laughter. Do you know what that fellow Zhu Yan said? "
Initially, Marchioness Yi didn't think much of it, but upon seeing Wang Chong's expression, she suddenly felt that this pair of cousins was really interesting.
"Your cousin has spread the word that the Wang Clan is preparing to take in a wife for you. Anyone who could join the Deflecting Blade Manor would have a chance of becoming the daughter-in-law of the Wang Clan. That's why there are so many girls from the Three Great Training Camps. "
Before Wang Chong could ask, Marchioness Yi had already solved the mystery.
"What?!"
Hearing this, Wang Chong turned pale with fright. He wondered why so many girls would appear here, and why they were shouting such strange slogans, which had nothing to do with spiritual veins. He didn't expect it to be for such a reason.
"Second Sister, are you joking?!"
Wang Chong panicked.
Was this something that could be joked about? Although he knew it was a joke. However, the outsiders wouldn't think so. They would only treat Second Sister Wang Zhu Yan's words as the truth.
Wang Chong knew that Second Sister wouldn't be idle, but he didn't expect her to find such a huge joke for him.
Wang Chong could already imagine the sight of his Second Sister convulsing with laughter at Longwei Training Camp.
"If you want to say anything, you should look for your Second Sister. I'll go in to look at the name list first. There are a few girls in there, and I really want to add them to the list. I don't want to see all of you brats when I enter the Deflecting Blade Manor in the future. "
Marchioness Yi chuckled as she left Wang Chong alone and walked into the Deflecting Blade Manor.
Black lines streaked across Wang Chong's face. Despite being ridiculed by Marchioness Yi, he was unable to refute her words.
"Second Sister, isn't this fellow messing around?"
After giving it some thought, Wang Chong realized that this matter couldn't be ignored. Thus, he turned around and wrote a stern letter to his Second Sister before leaving the Deflecting Blade Manor and entering the depths of the mountain.
The "War of the Princes" was no small matter. Up until now, the First Prince had appeared, the Second Prince had also appeared, and adding on the prince who had used a divination master to calculate his spiritual vein, there were already three princes of considerable importance appearing. Heavens!
Wang Chong knew that there would be another wave of princes demanding the spirit vein from him. In fact, they might even make use of this opportunity to pull the Wang Clan into his faction.
At such a dangerous moment, Wang Chong needed to calm down and think about what he should do next.
He didn't dare to stay in the training camp or the Deflecting Blade Manor any longer.
The depths of the mountain was the best place for him to contemplate.
Executing Phantom Shadow Steps, Wang Chong soon vanished from sight.
…
The deep mountains were filled with thorns that shrouded the sky. Other than birds and beasts, few people would venture here. At this moment, there were two figures strolling about.
The young man seemed to be around eighteen or nineteen years old. He had a slender figure and a jade-like complexion. He was extremely handsome, and he exuded an innate air of nobility and grace. His every movement exuded an aura of elegance and authority.
However, his face was extremely pale, and it seemed like he wasn't in good health.
Walking beside the young man was a thin servant in his forties. He was dressed in a grayish-brown robe and had a wretched expression on his face. His appearance was even more hideous.
However, what attracted one's attention was his neck.
Despite being a man, he didn't have a Adam's apple.
Although the servant was supposed to be a level lower than the others, in reality, the servant was extremely impatient.
"Uncle Jing, I've already hidden all the way here. Will Big Brother and Second Brother let me off? Imperial Father should have forgotten about me, right? "
The handsome young man walked alone under the canopy of a tree, supported by the servant. This place was overgrown with thorns and shrubs, so there shouldn't have been a path.
However, the young man had been walking here for a few months and had forcefully stepped out of the shrubs to create a small path.
Sunlight shone through the gaps in the trees and fell on the young man's body. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile as he felt the warmth of the sunlight on his body. It seemed like he was enjoying the feeling of being forgotten.
"Your Highness, are you muddle-headed?"
The servant was already impatient. When he heard this, he became even more irritated. His words became even more impolite.
"As a member of the royal family and a descendant of the Holy Emperor, you should be closer to your father so that you can receive the favor of the Holy Emperor and ascend to the throne. But you, not only did you request to come to this useless Kunwu Training Camp, you're actually afraid that you're not far enough away from your father? You don't seek to improve yourself! "
The servant couldn't help but reprimand him. If it weren't for the fact that he had no choice as a eunuch in the palace, he wouldn't have followed such a useless master.
With this kind of temperament, it was obvious that he was cannon fodder in the whirlpool of power. When the new emperor ascended to the throne, only death would await him.
It didn't matter if he died, but when the time came, he would also die if he implicated him.
Since ancient times, the people around the princes who failed to fight for the throne would all die!
"Haha, Uncle Jing, you know that I don't like to fight with my elder brothers. Moreover, I'm no match for them. Isn't it better to be forgotten by my father? That's exactly what I want. Moreover, it's very quiet here. I like it here. "
When he heard the servant's words, the young man laughed and didn't care at all.
"Enough! You want to die, but I don't want to die with you! "
The extremely ugly servant used all his strength to shake off the young man's arm, then walked forward in a rage.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. If he didn't get rid of the young man, only death would await him. He would have killed this foolish Fifth Prince a long time ago.
He really didn't care at all!
He had served the young man for so many years, but it was all for nothing.
"Hehe, Uncle Jing, you grew up with me. I know that you're just saying those words out of anger!"
The young prince had a good temper. Seeing the servant fling his sleeves and leave, he didn't seem angry at all. Instead, he chuckled and chased after the servant.
Kinship had never existed in the royal family.
Back when the Holy Emperor was still the crown prince, his mother had only been the crown prince's concubine, and she had passed away at a young age.
In the depths of the royal palace, it was difficult for one to survive. Most of the people by his side had died.
In the end, only this' Uncle Jing 'was left.
There weren't many people who could accompany him anymore. For this reason, he valued this relationship of his very much.
Looking in the direction that Uncle Jing had disappeared, the young prince hurriedly chased after him.
…
Hualala!
Pigeons flew past his head, heading toward the Deflecting Blade Manor. Seeing those pigeons hurriedly flying past, for some reason, Wang Chong heaved a long sigh of relief.
It seemed like his decision to leave the training camp was a wise one.
These princes don't know how to fight back!
Wang Chong thought. He hadn't panicked even when he was facing Yao Guang Yi at the Vast Crane Pavilion, but this time, he really felt that the situation was a little troublesome.
Hua!
With a leap, Wang Chong shot forward like an arrow amidst the tremors of the tree branches. He somersaulted in the air and landed lightly on another tree branch several zhang away.
For some reason, in this isolated place, Wang Chong felt extremely relaxed. His mind was clear, and his mood was much better.
"Don't follow me! … "
Suddenly, a furious voice sounded in his ears. In the depths of the mountain, it was exceptionally piercing.
"Hmm?"
Wang Chong's sword-like eyebrows twitched in shock.
"There's someone here?"
"You're such a disappointment! … "
The angry and rude voice came from afar again, as if it was reprimanding someone.
"Weird …"
Hearing this voice, Wang Chong suddenly felt a tinge of curiosity. Even though not everyone was confined to the Kunwu Training Camp, at least ninety percent of them were restricted from leaving as they pleased.
It was entirely due to Zhao Qianqiu that Wang Chong was able to enjoy this convenience.
This was also the reason why Wang Chong chose Zhao Qianqiu as his disciple when he first entered the Kunwu Training Camp.
Sou! Sou!
Wang Chong leaped from the tree branch to the southwest. A moment later, at a distance of thirty to forty zhang, separated by layers of leaves, Wang Chong caught sight of a middle-aged servant and a handsome young man standing together, seemingly in an intense argument.
At first glance, Wang Chong didn't think much of it, only thinking that he had never seen such a person before in the Kunwu Training Camp. But on the second glance, Wang Chong's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
"Li Heng?!!!"
Like a bolt of lightning, Wang Chong had never imagined that he would see the Fifth Prince Li Heng here.
In this world, there weren't many people who had seen Li Heng and knew of the Fifth Prince. But in the other world, there was almost no one who didn't know of the Fifth Prince.
The reason was very simple.
