Prince Shaohao's Mansion.
As a prince with a fiefdom title, King Shaohao also has a mansion of his own in Taihao City.
A prince who already has a fiefdom and is sent out cannot be summoned and cannot come back on his own initiative.
If King Taihao summons these princes back, they will have the opportunity to rest in his mansion.
There are people taking care of the palace, so it is not considered abandoned.
After everyone settled down, the first thing King Shaohao did was bring gifts into the palace and meet his father, King Taihao.
Since he was ready to compete and arrived here early, King Shaohao naturally didn't look familiar to him either.
After not seeing each other for so many years, although his father will not forget about him, he still needs to meet a familiar face and act familiar in front of his father. At least let him understand that you are also interested in this reserve position.
…
King Shaohao entered the palace.
Chen Muyu didn't have anything else to do. He was worried about getting into trouble, but he didn't go out.
When I first arrived, I didn’t know anything, so it was better to keep a low profile.
In the backyard, in the gazebo.
Chen Muyu showed a rare interest in playing chess with Shen Piaopiao.
"Not bad, there is progress!"
Within a few rounds, Chen Muyu was defeated.
Shen Piaopiao didn't know how to play chess at first, but after Chen Muyu taught her, she quickly mastered it.
Some things require talent.
Putting aside the laws of magical power and relying solely on brain power, Chen Muyu really couldn't compete with Shen Piaopiao.
He was killed in a few blows and his armor was thrown off.
"The main thing is that you are distracted."
Shen Piaopiao smiled, and a general took Chen Muyu away directly.
Chen Muyu was slightly stunned, then smiled. Maybe, he might be a little distracted.
After all, there is a strong man in the extreme realm in this city.
When he entered the city first, he could not help but look in the direction of the royal city.
In that suspended palace, there lived a powerful person in the extreme realm.
He suddenly remembered that he once heard Yang Ming from the Jidao say that when he broke the Tao, he made some enemies outside the territory.
The timeline at this time should be before Yang Ming broke through. After Yang Ming broke through, the most accessible place should be the Taihao Kingdom.
So, could it be that King Taihao was the one Yang Ming provoked?
It may be possible. Yang Ming is not here, so he can't tell anything.
What kind of person is this King Taihao? Is he easy to get along with?
Chen Muyu was very curious about these.
From King Shaohao's words, Chen Muyu had some small ideas, but after all, he was King Shaohao's father.
It is only natural that the son thinks his father is good, but to outsiders, what kind of existence does this look like?
"Come again."
Putting aside distracting thoughts, Chen Muyu laid out the chess pieces again.
At this time, Nan Ming came from outside.
"Just now, someone came to visit King Shaohao." Nan Ming whispered as he came to Chen Muyu's side.
"oh?"
Chen Muyu raised his eyebrows, "Visiting Shaohao is not a visit to me."
Nan Ming said, "He seems to be some kind of second prince, and his attitude is a little arrogant."
Chen Muyu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, the people in the mansion will just wait and wait until Shaohao comes back to deal with it."
Nan Ming nodded slightly.
King Shaohao entered the palace. Apart from Chen Muyu and the others, there were only a group of servants in the palace. It was indeed a bit strange for this second prince to come at this time.
Nan Ming just received them on his behalf.
This person came to see Shaohao, and indeed had nothing to do with Chen Muyu and others. In line with the principle of not provoking anyone and not taking the initiative to cause trouble, Chen Muyu naturally had no need to show his face.
Not long after Nan Ming left, before Chen Muyu finished the game, this guy came again.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Muyu frowned slightly.
Nan Ming said, "This person has an arrogant attitude and insisted on seeing Brother Shaohao. I explained to him that Brother Shaohao had entered the palace, but he didn't believe it. He thought I was lying to him and insisted on breaking in. Finally, Brother Huli showed some momentum and was able to scare him away..."
Chen Muyu looked at Hu Li who came after him.
This guy's main character is recklessness.
Hu Li smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't blame me. That guy was a little too arrogant, and he also spoke dirty words. If this wasn't Taihao City, with my previous temper, I would have slapped him to death."
This is not a lie. Hu Li is indeed manic in temperament and powerful. He is a strong man in the Saint King Realm who has understood the origin of more than a thousand ways. He has always been dissatisfied and directly eliminated.
It is already very difficult to make him endure it for a while, only to lose a little momentum and scare the other party away.
Immediately, Huli sat down next to him like a child who made a mistake.
"Just leave now. When Shaohao comes back to deal with it, you go and close the door of the house and refuse visitors."
Chen Muyu responded lightly, of course Shaohao had to take part in this kind of thing. As for him, he could just play chess.
…
Chen Muyu didn't take the second prince's visit seriously.
A little later, Shaohao came back from the palace.
His face was full of joy, and it could be seen that this trip should go smoothly.
"Brother Chen, my father praised me."
In the first sentence, King Shaohao was overjoyed.
Chen Muyu was a little speechless. Your father praised you a few times. Are you so successful?
Of course, for King Shaohao, it is not only great, but also very great.
The visit to the palace this time was firstly a routine matter, and secondly, it was to get acquainted with his father first.
And he immediately told King Taihao that he had achieved a high level in the Saint King Realm. King Taihao naturally praised him a few words.
In this world, the strong are always respected.
King Taihao has many sons. How can he stand out among the many competitors? Is it cute? Does it depend on being likeable?
There is only one thing you can do, and that is to improve yourself, use your own strength to leave everyone behind, and make your father have to see you.
As an eighteenth-year-old who could enter the high-level Holy King Realm, King Taihao naturally looked at him differently.
After all, the more children under your knees enter the high-level realm, the more respectable they are among the many powerful people in the Holy Lord Realm across the entire continent.
King Shaohao was very excited.
I was excited all the way back.
However, after the excitement, King Shaohao seemed to have thought of something, and the expression on his face gradually became a bit stiff.
"What's wrong?" Chen Muyu sat in the pavilion and did not get up. He just raised his head and looked at him in surprise.
Why is this guy so happy and stunned at other times?
King Shaohao laughed dryly, "I originally thought that I was the third person to achieve a high level, but my father just told me that I am the sixth person."
"oh?"
Chen Muyu frowned slightly.
Before, King Shaohao said that only the eldest and fourth eldest had achieved high-level status.
And now, if King Shaohao is the sixth, then there are three more before him.
"Third brother, seventh brother, and eighty-three."
King Shaohao eloquently named those three people.
"Well……"
Chen Muyu hesitated slightly, "Lao Qi? Is that King Lin Hao?"
King Shaohao nodded. At this time, his face was already a bit solemn.
"So, he really wants to compete for this reserve position?"
Chen Muyu just said lightly.
High-grade realm is not that rare. As long as he is willing, he can produce a large number of them at any time.
"have no idea."
King Shaohao shook his head. In his impression, his seventh brother had always been in a state of indifference to the world. This time he suddenly broke through to the high level, there was no news, and Taihao came to him in advance. city.
There’s no need to speculate on the meaning of this, it’s obvious.
But King Shaohao thought carefully.
King Lin Hao is also a prince, so why can't he participate in the competition for the reserve? In the past, others didn't fight for it, but if you can come forward, wouldn't you also not fight for it?
No fight, just no chance to fight, no hope of fighting. Now, since hope has appeared, there is no reason not to fight.
If you can fight for it, why can't others?
Thinking of this, King Shaohao felt slightly relieved.
But there was still a knot in his heart. He thought he had some relationship with King Lin Hao, the seventh brother, but the other party did not reveal any information to him and seemed to treat him as an outsider.
"What we know now is that the seventh brother and the third brother have joined forces. Both of them have reached high levels now. Moreover, I heard that the third brother has recruited many strong people..."
King Shaohao was vaguely worried.
Chen Muyu shook his head, "What about the others, for example, the one you mentioned, eighty-three."
"he?"
King Shaohao shook his head again, with a bit of disdain, "He appeared all of a sudden. He was never in our eyes before. Her mother is just a casual cultivator in the Kingdom of God. She doesn't even have a fiefdom." I don’t even have a title, so I shouldn’t be very competitive. From what my father said, it seems that I encountered some kind of opportunity that allowed me to break through to my current level.”
"Don't be careless."
Chen Muyu took a deep breath and moved the pawn on the chessboard forward, forcing the veteran Shen Piaopiao to a corner. "Sometimes, the more inconspicuous it is, the more threatening it is."
"Have you ever heard of the saying, dogs that bark don't bite?"
Chen Muyu talked about the truth, "For example, the eldest prince and the fourth prince have their strength on the outside so that they can be dealt with easily. If they are afraid of something like this happening suddenly, they must pay special attention..."
King Shaohao looked like he was being taught and listened quietly to Chen Muyu's words.
"Okay, then I'll send someone to find out the truth."
After listening to Chen Muyu's words, King Shaohao also felt that it made sense. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight without danger. If you understand the enemy's situation clearly, you can respond better when the time comes.
"Just now, someone calling himself your second brother came to see you." Chen Muyu mentioned casually.
"oh?"
King Shaohao frowned slightly.
Nan Ming explained the situation just now to King Shaohao.
After King Shaohao heard this, his brows furrowed for a moment, then relaxed.
"It doesn't matter, the second child is only at the first level of the Saint King Realm. His qualifications are too poor. I'm afraid my father will not consider him for the position of crown prince. He often hangs out with the fourth child. He must be here to spy on the fourth child. I'm real."
Having said this, King Shaohao paused, because he thought of what Chen Muyu had just reminded him, not to underestimate anyone easily.
Now, any one of his brothers may become his opponent.
"I'll pay you a visit later."
Immediately, King Shaohao said something.
"That's not necessary."
Chen Muyu waved his hand, "Nan Ming and the others have met this person and have a certain understanding of him. There is no need for you to go to him. I believe he will come to you again."
Nan Ming nodded slightly, "This person's realm is indeed not of concern. He has an impatient temper and is not useful. He is not a threat to you. If possible, you may be able to take advantage of him."
King Shaohao nodded and said nothing.
Chen Muyu said, "Your father already knows about your breakthrough to the high-level realm. Then, many people will know about it next. Just watch, there will definitely be a lot of people coming to visit you."
Indeed, if King Shaohao had not broken through to the high-level realm, he would not be enough to pose a threat to some people. Therefore, his arrival would basically be ignored by people. But it is different now. He has reached the high-level realm. For Chu, The battle for position has become competitive.
Those who came here to fight for the reserve position, after knowing that he had also broken through to the high-level realm, would definitely want to find out whether he was real or not.
King Shaohao naturally understood the reason.
"By the way, I introduced you to my father, but he didn't say much. But it doesn't matter. On the day of my father's birthday, your strength will be enough to enter my father's field of vision."
King Shaohao said that when he met his father just now, he did mention Chen Muyu to King Taihao and said how powerful he was. He thought that King Taihao would be very interested and would meet Chen Muyu directly, but Unexpectedly, King Taihao showed little interest.
He had no choice but to give up temporarily. In this case, if he recommended someone too much, he would be jealous of King Taihao.
Chen Muyu also looked indifferent and nodded slightly, "It doesn't matter, it's too early to meet King Taihao at this time."
He didn't plan to meet King Taihao at this time.
After all, that is the existence of the ultimate realm.
With Chen Muyu's current strength, in front of a strong person in the extreme realm, he is exactly the same as a little chicken, without any difference.
Before you understand King Taihao's temper and what kind of person he is, there is still a certain danger in meeting him rashly.
Therefore, in Chen Muyu's view, the best time to meet is actually on his birthday.
When the time comes, there will be many people, and King Taihao may not be able to notice him.
Moreover, when that time comes, he will be able to figure out King Taihao's preferences, express them in a timely manner, and enter his field of vision.
For Chen Muyu, this is actually a kind of self-protection.
After hearing what Chen Muyu said, King Shaohao didn't say anything more. Just at this time, someone came to report that the third prince and the seventh prince were visiting.
It came really fast.
He had just returned from the palace, and these two people came. The timing was really strange.
Did you know that he had broken through to the high-level realm so soon?
Or is it just a simple visit? Is it just a coincidence in timing?
