I’m Leveling Up Too Quickly - chapter 17

Chapter 17

“Creak…”

The palace door opened and Wei Ancai walked in with Xiao Fu’zi.

As for Zhu Wuyang, who was sitting on the Profound Ice bed, he had already crawled under the blanket. With a solemn expression, he used the Azure Dragon Concealment Art with all his might to hide his true strength. At the same time, he absorbed the strange power that surged over at an extremely slow speed.

If not for his previous experience, Zhu Wuyang probably would not have been able to hide his aura and be immediately discovered by Wei Ancai.

However, even so, Zhu Wuyang still needed the help of the blanket to avoid facing Wei Ancai directly and letting him detect his true strength.

Looking at Zhu Wuyang, who was hidden under the blanket, Wei Ancai frowned. He thought to himself that the 168th Prince was really quite frightened. He hid under the blanket and didn’t dare to come out. No wonder everyone said that he was weak and incompetent.

However, when he thought about the use of keeping Zhu Wuyang alive, Wei Ancai still comforted him softly, “Your Highness, as the saying goes, it’s better to live than to die. If you can live for a day, you can enjoy another day of glory and wealth. You’re now the Crown Prince of the Jiu Zhao Nation, second only to one person. Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself?

Moreover, the reason why something happened to the first 17 Princes was mainly because they had powerful backgrounds and ill intentions. That was why they were killed one after another. However, Your Highness doesn’t have that kind of background, nor do you have any ambitions. I believe His Majesty can see this and won’t attack you easily.

After His Majesty passes away, His Highness only needs to give up the position of Crown Prince in time. At that time, you will definitely turn misfortune into fortune and enjoy wealth for the rest of your life.”

Wei Ancai’s words were quite pertinent, but there was also a lot of deception in them. The previous body’s owner might not be able to tell, but Zhu Wuyang, who was a bystander, was well aware.

“Congratulations to the host for being comforted for the first time in your life. You have received 500 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for seeing through the enemy’s true colors for the second time in your life. You have obtained 600 breakthrough points…”

Zhu Wuyang’s expression became even uglier, and it was already slightly distorted. That was because he was holding it in. After all, more and more strange powers were charging over.

Zhu Wuyang felt that if this continued, he would not be able to hold on much longer and reveal his aura. Once that happened, he would probably not be able to escape death.

Fortunately, when Wei Ancai was comforting Zhu Wuyang, he did not use any probing techniques. In addition, there was a thick blanket between them, so Wei Ancai did not sense Zhu Wuyang’s true strength.

Wei Ancai was still chattering non-stop. Under the blanket, Zhu Wuyang’s face was red. He endured the impact of the strange power with difficulty and tried his best to hide his strength.

“Your Highness, just focus on being the Crown Prince. Don’t worry too much. Although His Majesty is a little ruthless, he won’t kill the Crown Prince recklessly. As long as you don’t stand up against him, nothing will happen.”

“This old servant has just returned from the various Princes and has already received accurate news. The other Highnesses will not treat Your Highness like the previous Princes, so Your Highness can rest assured and sit on this seat.”

“Perhaps I’ve crossed the line, but I’m definitely thinking of Your Highness. I hope that Your Highness can be safe and healthy. Please forgive me.”

… .

At this point, looking at the trembling blanket, Wei Ancai wondered if Zhu Wuyang was crying. It seemed that his words were quite simple and pleasant to the ears.

In that case, this cheap Crown Prince should not casually commit suicide again.

Wei Ancai felt a little more at ease and was finally prepared to leave. “I know that Your Highness has something against me and feels that I’m interfering too much. However, I have the heart to protect Your Highness. I definitely don’t want Your Highness to be harmed. Your Highness is wise. I’ll take my leave for now. If Your Highness has anything to say, feel free to look for me.”

As he spoke, Wei Ancai retreated with Xiao Fu’zi and sensed Zhu Wuyang’s strength. Although there was a blanket between them, with Wei Ancai’s strength, he could vaguely sense that Zhu Wuyang’s aura was weaker than before, but he was still in the Mid-stage of the Tendons Refinement realm.

This was expected. Wei Ancai did not find it strange. After leaving the palace, he closed the palace door and asked Xiao Fu’zi to gather the guards, palace maids, and eunuchs in the Crown Prince’s palace.

“Congratulations to the host for being deceived for the first time in your life. You have obtained 600 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for being misunderstood for the first time in your life. You have obtained 800 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for surviving your third life-and-death crisis. You have received 2,000 breakthrough points…”

… .

Another series of breakthrough points came rushing in. When Wei Ancai brought Xiao Fu’zi out, Zhu Wuyang finally couldn’t take it anymore. He collapsed on the bed and let go of the restrictions to let the huge strange force attack him.

“Phew…”

A powerful aura leaked out from Zhu Wuyang’s body, causing a ripple in the small bedroom. If Wei Ancai and Little Fuzi were still in the bedroom, they would definitely be able to detect Zhu Wuyang’s true strength through this aura.

Fortunately, before Zhu Wuyang became unable to hold it in, Wei Ancai and Little Fu’zi left in time. Otherwise, Zhu Wuyang would have been finished.

Once Wei Ancai and Xiao Fu’zi discovered Zhu Wuyang’s true strength, they would definitely inform the master behind them when they found out that Zhu Wuyang had broken through from the Mid-stage of Tendon Refinement to the Late-stage of Golden Bonse Refinement realm in a short period of time.

The tallest tree in the forest would be destroyed by the wind, let alone in the Jiu Zhao Imperial Palace, where being a turtle had become a trend. Zhu Wuyang was so outstanding that there was no need for those Princes and Princesses to make a move. The Mad Emperor, Zhu Zhenwu, would be the first to kill him.

Fortunately, the crisis this time had passed smoothly. He still had to continue improving the Azure Dragon Concealment Art so that he could be safer.

He circulated the Grand Earth Limitless Technique with all his might. Zhu Wuyang absorbed the strange power that surged over and transformed it into pure Earth Qi and blood to temper and improve every bone.

As his strength increased, Zhu Wuyang had a faint feeling that he could shatter the ground and break through the sky. Zhu Wuyang knew that this was just an illusion.

When one’s strength increased too quickly in a short period of time, martial artists would have such an illusion.

He had obtained so many breakthrough points this time. He wondered if he would be unlucky enough to advance to the next realm. He hoped that he would not advance again.
