Yang Wu left Tang Xiaohan's flower courtyard in a relaxed manner. Along the way, he hummed a little tune and was in an extremely good mood.
Thinking about how he had teased Tang Xiaohan to the point of crying, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. He secretly laughed: "This time, that girl won't have any ideas about this duke anymore."
Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and cried out: "Oh no, if that girl spreads what happened just now, wouldn't this duke's reputation be ruined?"
Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret. He had already done it, he only hoped that Tang Xiaohan would keep her mouth shut and not spread rumors that he was a glass man.
Yang Wu shook off these small worries and directly headed in the direction of the Medicine Hall. He was going to plunder some herbs and see if there were any Heaven Medicine he wanted. He still needed to refine the "Heaven Reversal Pill" for his father and still lacked a few main ingredients. Among them, the Heaven Medicine was even harder to find, he hoped that the Medicine Hall had it.
The main reason he offered the pill to the emperor was to enter the Medicine Hall. All of this was part of his plan.
Otherwise, it would not be easy for him to find those Heaven Medicine by himself.
After Yang Wu left, Tang Xiaohan, who was in the courtyard, suddenly cried out: "Damn it, I was tricked by him."
"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Tang Xiaohan's personal palace maid, Little Red, asked.
"I was tricked by Yang Wu." Tang Xiaohan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, revealing an extremely cute appearance.
"He's so bold, he actually dares to lie to the princess." Little Red said angrily. After pausing for a moment, she asked in a low voice: "What did he lie to the princess about?"
"He lied to me … He lied to me that he likes men." Tang Xiaohan said with a shy expression.
"Maybe he really likes men. Princess, I think you should forget about it." Little Red advised.
Little Red had a good impression of Yang Wu, but she also saw Yang Wu secretly touching the princess's hand. She also saw Yang Wu drooling at the princess, which made her feel disgusted. If the princess showed her real face, she would not care, but the princess was disguised as a man, which also proved that Yang Wu liked men.
Who could accept such a man?
Tang Xiaohan said, "That's why I said he lied to me. He doesn't like men at all. He has already seen through my identity as a woman."
"That can't be. Princess, you're dressed like a man. How could he tell?" Little Red was puzzled.
"Do you still remember the day he came back? There was a beautiful woman on the turtle demon he was sitting on. This proves that he likes women."
"Maybe he likes both men and women."
"No, he didn't ask me which prince I was from the moment he came in. Moreover, my garden is filled with fresh flowers. He should have guessed that I'm a girl long ago. I was even scared by him. This guy is really hateful."
"That seems to be the case. Then what should the princess do? Should we capture him?"
"Forget it, there will be plenty of time in the future. I must let him know how powerful this princess is."
…
Fu An Imperial Mansion.
After Prince Fu An came back, his face has been black. Today, he put down his face and went to resolve the grievances between Yang Wu and them. However, Yang Wu didn't appreciate it. It's really hateful.
After thinking for a while, Prince Fu An went to a secret room and quickly went underground. This secret room was a private forbidden area under his mansion. No one knows about its existence.
When he walked in, a burst of stench came out. The strong smell of blood made people feel disgusted.
He kept walking inside and found a lot of human limbs and blood. It was like a slaughterhouse, which was quite terrifying.
At the same time, an extremely strong death aura came out, accompanied by a beast-like roar: "Roar … … Die … … Kill!"
Inside the room, a person was locked in an iron cage made of top-grade royal materials. The iron cage was enchanted with an array, locking the person inside.
The person was exuding a death aura. His hair was messy and stained with blood. His hands and feet were locked with black iron. There were a lot of broken limbs and blood in the cage, which was so shocking.
"Wangye." Two people came out from the dark and greeted Prince Fu An.
Both of them were wearing ferocious masks and cloaks. The aura of kings was faintly discernible around them.
Prince Fu An looked at the person in the cage and said to the two people beside him: "I want him to go out and kill a person."
"Wangye, who do you want to kill?" The person on the right asked.
Prince Fu An said: "Can he be controlled?"
"There should be no problem for half a day." The person on the left said.
"The other side has a Heavenly Realm powerhouse." Prince Fu An said with a frown.
"He can even kill a Heavenly Realm powerhouse. Wangye knows this better than the two of us."
"Well, you take good care of him for the next few days. I must kill that kid."
…
Song Family Mansion.
After Song Xiang came back, his face showed a trace of tiredness. He lay on the armchair and let the maidservant massage his shoulders.
After a while, Song Youming came over and waved the maidservant away. He massaged his father like a good son.
After a long time, Song Youming finally couldn't help but ask: "Father, what happened in the morning court today?"
"You really can't keep calm." Song Xiang squinted his eyes and said. After a pause, he added: "That kid has risen. His momentum is irresistible. Even the emperor has no way to deal with him."
"What, this … how is this possible?" Song Youming said in disbelief.
"Nothing is impossible. He has a Heavenly Realm powerhouse behind him. He got a great opportunity." Song Xiang said with a sigh.
"What should I do? He will definitely retaliate against me." Song Youming said in a panic.
"Look at your virtue. You just encountered something, and you are already so flustered. How can you inherit your father's mantle in the future?" Song Xiang said with disappointment. Then he added: "Immediately send a message to your brother and sister. Tell them to come back as soon as possible."
"Great. As long as brother and sister come back, even if that little bastard has great ability, he will have to obediently lie down and wait for death." Song Youming said in surprise.
"Don't think so highly of yourself. It has only been a short year since he was abolished and rose to become a king. He won't be defeated so easily. As long as he knows how powerful our family is, he will know when to stop. Maybe there will be a chance to shake hands and make peace."
"Father, he and I are mortal enemies. How can we shake hands and make peace?"
"You have to remember that there are no eternal friends, and no eternal enemies. There are only eternal interests."
…
Cao Mansion.
This was the home of Lieutenant General Cao Jianda. Their Cao family's old man was also a marquis. The Cao family was one of the nobles in the imperial city.
Old Master Cao was still alive. Even though he had already retired, his influence was still extraordinary. He was a person who had followed the previous emperor and made illustrious military achievements.
Cao Jianda returned home from the morning assembly with a big smile on his face.
When Madam Cao saw her husband smiling so happily, she couldn't help but ask: "Master, did something good happen during the morning assembly?"
"Hehe, I can't hide it from you." Cao Jianda replied with a smile.
"It's written all over your face. Can't I see it?" Madam Cao said.
"I did encounter some happy things." Cao Jianda replied. However, he didn't want to dwell on this matter. Instead, he changed the topic and asked: "Didn't Fanny say that she would be coming back soon? Where is she?"
"Maybe in two days. The time for Emei's outer sect disciple recruitment has been confirmed. Before she participates in the test, she will definitely come back." Madam Cao replied.
"Yes. She must come back. I have to find her a good son-in-law." Cao Jianda said.
"Master, didn't you always think that Fanny should find a young king to be her son-in-law in the transcendent world? Why do you want to find her a partner now? "
"The child I'm looking for is a young king. He's many times better than our disappointing son."
"Which family's child is it that you like him so much?"
"Yang Wu of the Yang family."
… …
To the east of the Imperial City, there was an independent faction called the "Medicine King Pavilion."
The Medicine King Pavilion was a faction outside of the Imperial City's control. However, it was still within the Imperial City's territory. Furthermore, it sucked all of the Imperial City's resources. Because of their extraordinary status, the Imperial City had to treat them with respect.
There was a majestic hall called the Medicine King Pavilion. With it as the center, a city within a city was built. The people who lived here were all alchemists.
The Medicine King Pavilion's old pavilion master, Yao Yanhai, was publicly recognized as the number one alchemist in the Imperial City. It was rumored that he was once a member of a transcendent faction. Later on, for some unknown reason, he returned to his hometown and established the Medicine King Pavilion. He began to control all of the alchemists in the Imperial City and made them submit to him. He established the Medicine King Pavilion. Two-thirds of the pills in the Imperial City were supplied by the Medicine King Pavilion.
Every year, the soldiers in the Imperial City's North and South borders required large amounts of healing pills. Just based on this, the Medicine King Pavilion could collect much of the Imperial City's wealth and become the wealthiest faction in the Imperial City.
The Imperial City had tried many times to incorporate the Medicine King Pavilion, but it was to no avail. It was because Yao Yanhai had a Heavenly Fish Realm expert behind him that the Imperial City could only compromise and allow him to exist and control the lifeline of the Imperial City's pills.
In the towering Medicine King Pavilion, there was a person sitting on the main seat, listening to the report of the person kneeling on the ground.
The person sitting on the main seat was very young and looked to be in his early thirties. He was not considered handsome, but he was not ugly either. He belonged to the type that was determined and ugly. He wore a unique robe and his body seemed to be suffused with a ball of flame. His aura was quite shocking.
The only person who dared to sit on the Medicine King Pavilion's pavilion master's seat, besides Yao Yanhai, was his son, Yao Lingyu. He was the person who truly controlled the Medicine King Pavilion.
After Yao Lingyu finished listening to his subordinate's report, a cold smile appeared on his face. He muttered to himself, "The Face Retaining Pill. I've been dreaming of this pill for a long time. Now it's come at the right time."
