"Your Highness, follow my instructions and practice martial arts for a while. Your foundation is lacking, and you've never cultivated martial arts before. So even though I've treated you, there won't be any fundamental change. "
Wang Chong finally understood where the root of the problem lay.
The Stone of Destiny's' Blood Interchange 'ability could only change one's bloodline and talent. It could not suddenly make one stronger or increase one's strength.
In other words, if Li Heng had been powerless before, he would still be powerless right now, so he wouldn't feel any different.
The Stone of Destiny's Blood Interchange ability could not create a supreme expert out of thin air.
Now that Wang Chong had mentioned it, the two of them vaguely understood where the problem lay. In a flash, both Li Heng and Li Jingzhong felt a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
"There's no need, I know a technique!"
Li Heng suddenly said. He was even more hopeful than Wang Chong. In the long years that had passed, he had hoped countless times that his body would change.
Indifference and indifference were not because he truly didn't care. Rather, it was because he had failed so many times that he had long since gotten used to it. It was not because he had no hope for greater strength.
On the contrary, a crippled person longed to walk normally while a blind person longed for the white sunlight.
Although it was just a change in his complexion, it was the best news that had happened to Li Heng in the last countless years, the greatest change.
As for martial arts, this was not a problem. The imperial household had no lack of them.
Moreover, there was a set of martial arts that he had already deeply engraved in his bones.
Bang!
Amidst Wang Chong and Li Jingzhong's gazes, Li Heng suddenly punched out. This punch was extremely smooth, and it seemed to have been tempered thousands of times. It didn't seem like a beginner's punch at all.
"Not bad!"
Wang Chong took two steps back, a hint of shock in his eyes. Li Heng's punch had both form and spirit. Even with his current level of cultivation, he couldn't help but praise it. He couldn't find any fault with it.
Bang!
After punching, Li Heng stomped down. Bang! This stomp was extremely heavy, and the vague image of a dragon appeared behind Li Heng.
This dragon was only the size of an arm and looked very small. At first glance, it looked like a flood serpent. However, when Wang Chong saw the dragon's toe clearly, he was shocked.
"Five fingers!"
Raising his head to look at Li Heng, Wang Chong felt completely different.
"So the Holy Emperor was prepared!"
Four-clawed Pythons, Heaven Dragons, Five-clawed True Dragons, and Six-clawed Flood Dragons did not necessarily have more claws. The dragon on Li Heng's back was unremarkable at first glance.
If Wang Chong hadn't happened to see it, he wouldn't have known that the dragon actually had five claws.
"The imperial clan has strict rules and would never casually pass it down. For Li Heng to have a five-clawed dragon on his back, just what is going on?"
Wang Chong was astonished.
There was only one person who dared to teach Li Heng the Five-Clawed True Dragon technique. But that person clearly knew that Li Heng could not learn martial arts, and that he did not seek to improve himself, so why did he still do this?
Could it be that there were some hidden secrets?
Wang Chong muttered to himself in deep thought.
However, Wang Chong didn't have the time to ponder over these questions, because an unimaginable transformation was happening to Li Heng's body.
Peng peng peng!
The crackling of Li Heng's bones grew louder and louder, and gusts of wind began to swirl around him.
"Origin Energy Tier 4!"
Wang Chong was astonished. In the blink of an eye, Li Heng had advanced from Origin Energy Tier 1 to Tier 2 to Tier 3 and Tier 4.
Only when one's blood essence seeped into one's bones and entered the Marrow Channeling realm would such a crackling sound occur. However, the transformation to Li Heng's body wasn't as simple as just the crackling sound.
Wang Chong could sense that something was bubbling within Li Heng's body. It was an immense amount of energy reminiscent of a volcano.
"Pill energy!"
Wang Chong suddenly understood what was going on. In Li Heng's body, he had consumed all kinds of pills, medicinal herbs, rare treasures, and even the energy left behind by many supreme experts.
Due to Li Heng's condition, this enormous amount of energy couldn't be exerted at all. Instead, it remained in Li Heng's body, accumulating in his cells.
Not only did the Origin Energy of countless experts and pills not help Li Heng, they even became a burden on him.
It was as if he didn't have the strength of a thousand jin, but he was carrying a thousand jin of gold on his back.
This was why Li Heng's face was so pale.
But now that Li Heng had resolved his bloodline problem and innate flaws, this enormous' burden 'immediately transformed into his true wealth and treasure.
Understanding this, Wang Chong understood what was going to happen next.
Hong long long!
The Stellar Energy around Li Heng's body grew stronger and stronger, and the fierce winds began to drag the tables and chairs into the air. Boom! With a heaven-shaking boom, the tables and chairs that had been dragged into the room were smashed to pieces by Li Heng.
At the same time, Li Heng's aura broke through Tier 5, Tier 6, and finally Tier 7.
But Li Heng's strength had already reached Origin Energy Tier 9, and he wasn't inferior to Wang Chong in the slightest.
As a descendant of the imperial clan, a descendant of the dragon, he had access to countless resources. In this aspect, no one could compare to him.
"Hahaha, martial arts … I can also practice martial arts! I can finally practice martial arts! — — "
An excited and frenzied voice filled with boundless joy echoed in the Deflecting Blade Manor. Li Heng stood in the room, his hair ribbons fluttering in the wind. His eyes shone with an unprecedented radiance, as if the sun in the sky.
At this moment, Li Heng was completely different. He was brimming with confidence, joy, and a desire that even he didn't notice.
"That's great, that's great … Your Highness, you can finally practice martial arts!"
Li Jingzhong's body trembled in excitement, and he was on the verge of dancing. After so many years, he had finally waited for this hope.
He had finally waited for the day that Fifth Prince Li Heng could practice martial arts!
All of this was so sudden, so unbelievable, but it really happened in front of him.
This was a miracle!
"Wonderful, wonderful … Wang gongzi, thank you, thank you! In the future, this old servant will definitely do whatever Wang gongzi says. Other than His Highness, the life of I, Li Jingzhong, is yours! "
Li Jingzhong suddenly hugged Wang Chong in agitation.
"You're the one who said it."
Wang Chong looked at the incoherent Li Jingzhong, and he found the entire situation comical. If Li Jingzhong knew that he would one day become the powerful and treacherous minister, Li Fuguo, he would definitely regret saying those words.
Of course, Li Jingzhong was still in a state of depression at the moment, so it was hard to predict what would happen in the future.
And Wang Chong wouldn't allow him to become the future treacherous minister, Li Fuguo.
As long as this fellow showed the slightest hint of treachery, Wang Chong would deal with him personally.
"I'm the one who said it, I'm the one who said it … Every word of mine is sincere, and the heavens can guide me!"
Li Jingzhong raised two fingers and swore to the heavens.
In his eyes, the current Wang Chong was a lucky star that had descended from the heavens. In this world, there was no one more amiable, respectable, and adorable than this Wang Chong gongzi of the Wang Clan.
For a servant who served him to swear loyalty to another, no matter how one thought about it, it was bizarre. But at this moment, Li Heng didn't think so at all.
"Wang Chong, thank you! I will always remember this favor! "
Li Heng grabbed Wang Chong's hands, and his face was flushed in agitation. His long nightmare had finally come to an end, and Li Heng had never been so happy and elated before.
Which man didn't want to possess great strength?
And now, he had finally obtained it!
Even though they had only just met, in Li Heng's heart, Wang Chong was already his most important friend.
"Your Highness is being too polite. I'm glad that I was able to help Your Highness."
Wang Chong said gratifyingly.
The current Li Heng was clearly much more proactive and confident than before. This was an excellent change.
Power could change one's personality and increase one's boldness and decisiveness.
Wang Chong knew that the moment Li Heng obtained power, he had walked a different path from his last life, a path that Wang Chong truly wanted him to walk.
Li Heng possessed kindness, compassion, and the desire and ambition to revitalize the Central Plains and the Tang dynasty. And now, Wang Chong had used his own method to give him the power to realize his blueprint!
It was already late, and Li Heng didn't stay long in Wang Chong's Deflecting Blade Manor. Having just obtained power, he was already impatient to return to his room and experience this unprecedented power.
Wang Chong knew what he was thinking, so he didn't urge him to stay. Taking advantage of the darkness, he escorted him out of Deflecting Blade Manor. On the way down the mountain, Li Heng and Li Jingzhong repeatedly thanked Wang Chong.
"Young Master!"
Once Li Heng left, Zhao Jingdian walked over, and the mood instantly became somewhat heavy.
"These are the letters we received today while you were away. There were princes, princesses, and even consorts from the palace. A few of them even came to Deflecting Blade Manor while you were away. "
Zhao Jingdian passed over a stack of letters. The Fifth Prince had been present at night, so Zhao Jingdian hadn't told Wang Chong about it.
After meeting Princess Ni Huang earlier in the day and being tormented by an old nanny, Zhao Jingdian had already gotten used to it. What he was worried about now was something else.
"If this matter isn't resolved, it will never end. Tomorrow, more princes and princesses will come. Young Master can escape this life, but you can't escape this life. Besides … does Young Master think that Madam and the others can escape? "
Zhao Jingdian hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Wang Chong could escape into the mountains, but Wang Chong's mother couldn't. Moreover, if the consorts of the palace came to summon her, what would the old madam do?
She couldn't possibly escape like Wang Chong, could she?
Wang Chong's complexion wasn't very good. The princes and princesses were one thing, but even the consorts of the palace had joined in. It was clear that the princes were trying to put pressure on him.
He could think of a way to avoid the princes and princesses, but the consorts of the palace weren't easy to deal with.
