Chapter 708: Chapter 704: Spirit Pill

He spoke no more of this matter, only mentioned it as a lead, sufficient to accomplish the task.

Not everyone has Soul Pearls, nor can everyone identify these Demon Clan experts.

To locate these Demon Clan experts in advance, to ambush and kill them, is different from having them sneak up for an assassination.

These will be two completely different outcomes.

Even if the Court uses Divinity Transformation Realm experts to perform the technique to deceive the heaven and cross the sea, they still cannot stop the Demon Clan experts.

The characteristic of the Demon Clan experts is their proficiency in concealing their presence and in assassination.

Even top tracking experts are at an impasse when faced with Demon Clan experts.

Without Soul Pearls, without Super Sense, facing Demon Clan experts is destined to be a disadvantage, only losing and hardly gaining any advantage.

After suffering losses, the Court’s experts know their own value.

Pushing oneself is not a fair trade.

There’s no need to be in a hurry to willingly help now.

Chu Hongfeng smiled and said, ”You six have worked hard, go back and rest first. We will report to the Emperor for your deeds, and rewards are inevitable.”

”Prince, it was all due to the Ninth Prince.”

”Indeed, we only shouted a few times, keeping their attention distracted. It was all the Ninth Prince taking action.”

”Without you, Zhao’er wouldn’t have achieved this. It is the result of your joint efforts. Go back.”

”...Yes.”

The six embarrassedly saluted Chu Zhiyuan with cupped fists, and Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Earlier, they felt Chu Zhiyuan’s demeanor was arrogant and rude, but now they find it appropriate.

After they left, Chu Zhiyuan also took his leave to return to the Prince Mansion.

As evening fell, Li Yuzhen suddenly sought an audience.

Chu Zhiyuan sat at the stone table, drinking while eating, looking up at him briefly.

The remnants of the sunset turned the courtyard into a rose hue, changing the pure elegance into splendor.

Chu Zhiyuan sat amidst the evening glow, gazing at Li Yuzhen’s beautiful face: ”What instructions does Your Highness have again?”

”Your Highness asked me to convey thanks.”

”Oh—?” Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow, chuckling, ”Finally confirmed the truth of my information?”

”Yes.”

”Seems the opening time of your Grotto Heaven is similar to ours.”

”...”

”Interesting,” Chu Zhiyuan pondered, ”Could there be some connection between these Grotto Heavens? ...Or even the same Grotto Heaven?”

Previously, he didn’t suspect such a thing, but after letting his thoughts roam, he couldn’t help wonder.

After all, it was too coincidental.

Li Yuzhen lightly furrowed his brows, seemingly in thought.

With Chu Zhiyuan’s words, she also began to wonder whether the two Dynasties’ Grotto Heavens were truly connected?

Or even the same Grotto Heaven?

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Grotto Heaven is immense, not encountering each other inside is not surprising, ...okay, I accept her gratitude.”

Li Yuzhen retrieved a small box from his sleeve and handed it over: ”Your Highness also presents Prince Consort with a gift.”

Chu Zhiyuan gestured.

The purple lacquer box flew into his hand, which he immediately opened for a look.

Inside was a round Elixir Pills, the size of Dragon Eye, with a faint golden glow.

”This is...?” Chu Zhiyuan glanced at Li Yuzhen.

”Phoenix Nirvana Pill.” Li Yuzhen said solemnly, ”As long as there’s a last breath, it can bring back the dead.”

Chu Zhiyuan was surprised, astonished: ”So, this is the Phoenix Nirvana Pill?”

He picked it up with his hand, immediately feeling a fiery sensation penetrating from his fingertips directly to his heart.

As if flames burrowed into his body, being scorched amid fire.

He gasped, amazed: ”What a Phoenix Nirvana Pill!”

”Prince Consort has heard of it?”

”As ignorant as I may be, I’ve heard of this Phoenix Nirvana Pill, hailed as the top Spirit Pill.”

”Yes.”

”Your Highness’s gifting such a Spirit Pill, it’s quite overwhelming.” Chu Zhiyuan placed the Phoenix Nirvana Pill back in the box.

Only then did he feel the box’s wonder, a faint warmth emanating.

This served as a nest, warming the Phoenix Nirvana Pill, protecting it from damage, even enhancing its potency.

”Since her Highness gifts it, there must be a reason.”

”Hmm, seems I helped greatly, alright, then I reluctantly accept.”

He received the closed box, feeling its weight upon his hand.

Indeed, this small box was magical.

Chu Zhiyuan fiddled with it, opened it again for a look, unable to suppress his smile.

This Phoenix Nirvana Pill is akin to an extra life, essentially granting him another life.

Though this body is an avatar, its loss means not much, not real death.

But the avatar serves too great a purpose, so not giving it up if possible is best.

Chu Zhiyuan looked up at Li Yuzhen: ”Is there anything else?”

Li Yuzhen showed an expression of difficulty.

Chu Zhiyuan said irritably: ”You can actually be hesitant too?”

Yet his heart sank.

Li Yuzhen has always been decisive and straightforward, never hesitating like this.

What she wanted to say certainly wouldn’t be good news, making her reluctant to speak.

Li Yuzhen took a deep breath, biting her red lips, softly saying: ”Your Highness wants me to apologize to Prince Consort.”

”What now?” Chu Zhiyuan snorted, ”What trouble is she causing again?”

”Your Highness wants to enter the Spirit Guard.” Li Yuzhen whispered.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: ”She can enter the Spirit Guard?”

”Yes.” Li Yuzhen gently nodded: ”Your Highness has reached Divinity Transformation Realm, the Phoenix Divine Sword also entered the Entering Spirit Level, qualifying her for the Spirit Guard.”

”Divinity Transformation...” Chu Zhiyuan sighed, ”Didn’t expect her to be so formidable.”

”Your Highness is naturally extraordinary.” Li Yuzhen proudly affirmed.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: ”Your Emperor approved her entry into the Spirit Guard?”

”All Princes and Princesses meeting the conditions must enter the Spirit Guard,” Li Yuzhen stated, ”no exceptions.”

Chu Zhiyuan’s expression turned solemn.

If such rules truly exist, then the Phoenix Dynasty is indeed terrifying.

Princes and Princesses, though privileged, still have to face this trial, indeed fearsome.

Once a Spirit Guard, their character naturally differs, at least aware of the world’s perils, their minds naturally broaden.

No wonder the Phoenix Dynasty remains powerful.

Yet this rule hasn’t been publicized, clearly an intentional move by the Court.

Because the Jade Dynasty’s Princes and Princesses aren’t subjected to this requirement.

Desiring entry, the Emperor agrees, reluctant to go, the Emperor doesn’t insist.

In comparison, the Phoenix Dynasty’s rules are exceedingly strict.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: ”Have your Princes and Princesses suffered losses?”

”Yes.”

”She going to the Outer Realm Battlefield is perilous.” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”May not return, right?”

”...Yes.” Li Yuzhen looked at him, displeased.

She felt his words were piercing, not wanting to hear such ominous talk.

She found it annoying because it sounded like he hoped Your Highness wouldn’t return.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: ”The wedding date will be deferred?”

”Your Highness plans to use a substitute to marry Prince Consort.”

”Substitute?” Chu Zhiyuan suddenly laughed: ”Haha...”

Li Yuzhen was baffled by his laughter, looked at him in confusion.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed several times and stopped, shaking his head continuously.

They really had the same idea.

He thought of using a substitute, the Twelfth Princess also wanted to use one.

If two substitutes live in the Princess Mansion, that would be genuinely amusing.

No matter how, it felt entertaining.

Li Yuzhen said: ”Due to discussions between the Dynasties, the wedding date cannot be changed, but Your Highness can’t wait that long, so...”

”When can she return?” Chu Zhiyuan asked.

”A year,” Li Yuzhen said, ”at least a year before leaving the Spirit Guard.”

”A year...” Chu Zhiyuan contemplated.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

A year should be enough to reach the Divinity Transformation Realm.
