It wasn’t long after Wang Qingci entered Lu Chen’s room that her voice could be heard.
Chu Yuqin, who was at the courtyard gate, said coldly upon hearing her voice, “How shameless!”
Naturally, Chu Yuqin wouldn’t speak ill of her own Chen’er, so the only one she could be scolding was Wang Qingci.
As her words fell, Chu Yuqin turned and left. She didn’t want to keep eavesdropping at the wall; otherwise, she might not be able to stand it later on. Meanwhile.
Inside the room.
After Lu Chen and Wang Qingci fostered their emotional connection, the system notification tone sounded.
[Host and Wang Qingci have fostered an emotional connection once, gaining 20 experience points for Qi Refinement Mantra. This emotional connection has triggered an Emotional Crit, awarding an additional 4.0 experience points. Rejuvenating Skill gains 20 experience points and has broken through to the first layer.]
Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then filled with immense excitement in his heart.
He had thought after Zhou Youyou’s pregnancy, breaking through to the Ninth Grade before the arrival of Blood Moon Tower would be difficult unless he pushed Chu Yuqin away.
Otherwise, Wang Qingci alone could only provide him with 20 experience points a day, requiring at least five days.
It was possible that they didn’t even have five days before those people from Blood Moon Tower arrived at Yan County.
But today, he had gained 60 experience points in one day.
Emotional Crit, that really was a wonderful thing.
If he could have more Emotional Crits, wouldn’t his realm advancement be even easier in the future?
Just as Lu Chen was thinking this, he noticed his hand seemed to be emitting a green gas.
Hmm?
What is this?
Lu Chen lifted his right hand, embracing Wang Qingci with his left now, and then took a serious look at his right hand.
“System, what’s happening with my hand?”
[This is the power of the Rejuvenating Skill. From now on, the host can use it to heal illnesses and injuries.]
After hearing the system’s voice, Lu Chen lowered his right hand, wanting to try out the capacity of the Rejuvenating Skill.
When his right hand touched Wang Qingci’s delicate body again, she couldn’t help but let out a moan.
“Prince, what are you doing? My waist feels so comfortable,” she said.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen’s eyes brightened. He hadn’t expected that merely touching Wang Qingci’s body would immediately activate the Rejuvenating Skill.
Soon, Lu Chen understood what was happening. It turned out that during the Emotional Crit earlier, he, overwhelmed with rage and too ferocious, accidentally injured Wang Qingci’s willowy waist.
Now, the spiritual energy gathered in his right hand was helping to repair the muscular injuries inside Wang Qingci’s body, which is why she felt so comfortable.
The Rejuvenating Skill was indeed excellent; it would allow him to quickly recover from minor injuries and illnesses in the future.
At that moment, Lu Chen patted Wang Qingci’s bottom and said with a smile, “How does it feel to be a female slave to this Prince?”
Her cheeks flushing, her eyes filled with affection, Wang Qingci replied,
“Prince, please don’t humiliate your servant like this.”
Wang Qingci was uncertain about her future, but she had grown accustomed to being with Lu Chen. Although their relationship had only been cultivated a few times, she could no longer stay away from him.
This bad man had not only captured her heart but had also conquered her entire being.
Lu Chen then said, “Once I’ve dealt with Blood Moon Tower, you should move to the Prince’s Mansion.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Qingci was silent for a moment. To be honest, she, too, wanted to move to the Prince’s Mansion and serve Lu Chen every day.
But she thought of a problem: in front of the North Prince, could her value only be shown in bed?
Even though both her body and heart belonged to the North Prince, Wang Qingci didn’t want to become a mere tool to satisfy his base desires.
She wanted to show her worth in many ways in front of Lu Chen, only then could she go further, and only then would the North Prince value her, the female slave, more.
Even when she grew old and her beauty faded, if she had made significant contributions to the Prince’s Mansion, it was unlikely that the North Prince would cast her aside.
With this thought, Wang Qingci said, “Prince, I want to stay at Hundred Flowers Tower forever, collecting intelligence for Your Highness.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen asked with puzzlement, “Don’t you want to come to the Prince’s Mansion and serve me?”
Wang Qingci quickly replied, “It’s not like that. I just feel that if I were to come to the Prince’s Mansion now, people would afterward recognize me as someone from the Prince’s Mansion, and then I wouldn’t be able to gather intelligence for Your Highness.”
“After the assassination attempt by Blood Moon Tower concludes, Prince Lu Shuyun will certainly not let it rest. He might send someone to assassinate Your Highness again. If Your Highness has me, a chess piece, then no matter what Prince Lu Shuyun does, 1 could notify Your Highness immediately.”
Hearing what Wang Qingci said, Lu Chen felt there was some truth to it.
Hundred Flowers Tower, being a place of pleasure, indeed made it easy to gather intelligence.
Moreover, his brother Prince Lu Shuyun really might not let things rest. If he had Wang Qingci, the Saintess of Misty Pavilion, perhaps he could monitor every move of Lu Shuyun in the future.
This would also be a good thing for him.
With that in mind, Lu Chen gently caressed Wang Qingci’s jade back and then said, “All right then, continue to stay at Hundred Flowers Tower. If my brother Prince Lu Shuyun makes any moves in the future, notify me immediately.”
Seeing that Lu Chen agreed with her proposal, Wang Qingci was very pleased inside. She had finally found an opportunity to demonstrate her value—an excellent beginning that also meant her worth was no longer just to be used for Lu Chen’s amusement.
The next day.
After getting up in the morning and having a simple meal, Lu Chen went to find Chu Yuqin.
Chu Yuqin was curious inside to see Lu Chen looking so spirited.
Why is it that Lu Chen was entangled with women every day but seemed to suffer no significant detriment to his health?
Logically, a man who engaged in the activities of men and women would lose vital energy; indulgence in women is a taboo for those practicing martial arts.
Martial Artists often say, “Women only affect the speed with which I can draw my sword,” and this saying did not come from nowhere.
If one became addicted to the pleasures of women, it could indeed slow down a Martial Artist’s reaction speed.
Chu Yuqin thought to herself, could it be that Lu Chen has some celestial fate which prevents him from being affected by such activities?
Noticing Chu Yuqin’s beautiful eyes scanning him, Lu Chen said with a smile, “Madam Chu, is there something on me?”
Chu Yuqin, returning to her senses and realizing her own lapse, quickly coughed and said, “Chen’er, I’ve noticed you’ve been engaging in activities with women every day. Although continuing the family line is crucial, you should also take care of your body.”
Lu Chen replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, Madam Chu; I’m aware of what I’m doing.”
“By the way, Madam Chu, I came to you today because there’s something 1 need to discuss.”
As he spoke, Lu Chen’s expression turned serious.
Lu Chen was like that; when it came to serious matters, he would not joke around.
Seeing how serious Lu Chen looked, Chu Yuqin knew there must be something important, so she asked, “Chen’er, is it regarding the Prince’s Mansion?”
Lu Chen nodded, “I’ve already sent for General Li Feng; I believe he will arrive at the Prince’s Mansion shortly.”
Seeing that Lu Chen mentioned General Li Feng, Chu Yuqin realized that what Lu Chen was about to discuss must be no trivial matter.
At that moment, a maid came in from outside and said, “Prince, General Li has arrived.”
Lu Chen said, “Madam Chu, let’s head to the Training Ground first.”
“Okay.”
With that, the two headed to the Training Ground of the Prince’s Mansion.
General Li Feng, clad in armor, was pacing around the Training Ground, his armor clanging; he was curious about what important matter the North Prince wanted to discuss with him at this time.
Since arriving in North City, apart from commanding him to train troops, the North Prince seemed to be doing nothing else.
Even opening shops was managed by the Princess Consort while the North Prince indulged himself in the inner quarters.
Of course, General Li Feng always believed this was the North Prince’s way of deceiving others, making people outside believe he was a wastrel Prince.
At this moment, General Li Feng couldn’t help thinking, could it be that the North Prince was calling for him now because he felt the time was ripe to initiate his next plan?
