Chapter 28: Chapter 28 It’s Actually You i
Translator: 549690339
Hearing Wang Qingci’s words, Lu Chen’s face did not show a hint of unease.
He had already extracted the information about Blood Moon Tower sending people to assassinate him from Wang Qingci’s personal profile.
However, he had not expected Blood Moon Tower to actually dispatch so many Ninth Grade Martial Artists to kill him.
Aren’t Ninth Grade Martial Artists supposed to be rare in this world? How come they are now aplenty, deploying five of them just to assassinate a worthless prince like himself, is that really okay?
If he didn’t have the system, he probably would have been doomed.
Seeing that Lu Chen’s face bore no worry, Wang Qingci thought to herself that indeed, the North Prince had grown powerful and was not the least afraid of the assassins from Blood Moon Tower.
At that moment, Lu Chen came up behind Wang Qingci, then slid his hands under her arms to embrace her slim waist and whispered in her ear with a smile, “It seems you’ve made your choice.”
“But aren’t you afraid he will send someone to kill you for betraying my Eighth Brother like this?”
Wang Qingci spoke seductively, “Isn’t all of this caused by the Prince himself? I am now your woman and can’t leave you; I have no choice. What else could 1 do?”
“I only hope that in the future, the Prince will cherish me and not treat me as a mere tool to be discarded after use.”
Lu Chen replied with a smile, “Of course.”
As he spoke, Lu Chen rested his head on Wang Qingci’s fragrant shoulder, breathing in the scent of her body.
Lu Chen was calculating in his mind that in a few days the people from Blood Moon Tower would arrive. Although he had the Desert Eagle and modern firearms like Batrelei, if there were too many opponents, and someone was holding him back, he feared he wouldn’t even be able to draw his weapon before finding himself in danger.
Therefore, he absolutely needed to enhance his own strength.
It would be best if he could break through to the rank of Ninth Grade Martial Artist within these few days, as every aspect of his physical ability would be substantially improved.
Even if the assassins from Blood Moon Tower were very fast, with the Ninth Grade strength aiding him, the Desert Eagle and Batrelei would still make killing them as easy as slaughtering chickens.
However, as useful as weapons are, one still needs to be alive to use them. If, for example, someone suddenly launched a surprise attack and his sensory abilities were not up to par, even the capability to kill with a single shot could result in him being taken out by the enemy beforehand.
At this point, Lu Chen asked the system in his mind, “System, how much experience is still needed to upgrade the Qi Refinement Mantra to the second level?”
The system’s voice immediately sounded in Lu Chen’s mind.
[You need another one hundred experience points.]
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen felt elated. He needed only one hundred more experience points to upgrade to the second level?
That fast?
Lu Chen then inquired, “After upgrading the Qi Refinement Mantra to the second level, can my Realm break through to Seventh Grade?”
Lu Chen’s question was a bit conservative. Originally, he thought that if the Qi Refinement Mantra broke through to the second level, his strength could probably make it to the Ninth Grade.
Just then, the system’s voice emerged.
[After upgrading the Qi Refinement Mantra to the second level, the host’s Realm will advance to Ninth Grade.]
Lu Chen was somewhat excited. Just as he had imagined, it truly would advance to Ninth Grade.
However, on second thought, the Qi Refinement Mantra was only a cultivation technique for refining Qi, mainly increasing his skill without actual lethal power.
He would still need to find an external cultivation technique with lethal power in the future.
At this moment, Wang Qingci, wrapped in Lu Chen’s embrace, felt something unusual in his body.
Wang Qingci’s fair complexion instantly turned rosy, followed by a blush spreading from her face to her collarbone and neck.
Lu Chen then whispered in Wang Qingci’s ear, “From now on, you are my Female Slave. As a Female Slave, do you know what you should do for your master?”
Upon hearing this question, Wang Qingci was slightly taken aback. She had just been toyed by this man all afternoon and hadn’t expected him to have the energy for more at night.
How could the North Prince possess such formidable stamina!
Wang Qingci was somewhat astonished; she had spent a long time in Hundred Flowers Tower but never heard of a man with the ferocity of the North Prince.
Wang Qingci then said, “Prince, your servant has only come to deliver a message, and now that the message has been delivered, your servant shall take her leave.”
As she spoke, Wang Qingci half-turned, intending to push past Lu Chen and leave, only to discover that her skill had vanished once again. She instantly felt utterly powerless and was unable to push Lu Chen away.
Lu Chen immediately wrapped his arms around Wang Qingci and walked towards the bed.
He needed to seize the time to gain experience points from the Qi Refinement Mantra, so he couldn’t let Wang Qingci just run off like that.
Wang Qingci finally sighed, feeling somewhat bewildered. After becoming the North Prince’s female slave, she had no idea what the future would hold.
With uncertainty about the future, Wang Qingci soon immersed herself in the pleasure that Lu Chen brought her.
Meanwhile.
Outside the courtyard.
Chu Yuqin had seen the woman in black enter Lu Chen’s room and had been guarding the courtyard entrance ever since.
If anything happened inside the room, she would rush in. She still didn’t trust that woman in black.
After all, she was a Ninth Grade martial artist!
To think that the woman in black had approached the North Prince with no other motive, Chu Yuqin found that hard to believe.
But just then, Chu Yuqin heard the sound of a woman’s cheerful voice coming from the room.
Chu Yuqin’s mind went blank.
This…
“That Ninth Grade martial artist is actually Chen’er’s woman?”
Ninth Grade martial artists were rather rare in this world, and female Ninth Graders were even rarer.
Being a Ninth Grade martial artist herself, the woman in black was willing to become the woman of a Prince, who was nominally a useless royalty, which Chu Yuqin found utterly unbelievable.
Chu Yuqin was somewhat curious why this woman would choose Lu Chen.
The next morning.
Wang Qingci limped out of Lu Chen’s room, and as she did so, she ran into Chu Yuqin, who was still at the entrance of the courtyard.
Seeing that the one coming out of the room was Wang Qingci, Chu Yuqin’s face darkened as she said indifferently, “It’s you!”
A Ninth Grade martial artist, running to the Hundred Flowers Tower to become an Oiran, and then approaching the North Prince—if there wasn’t a scheme behind it, who would believe that?
As a servant by the side of Lu Chen’s mother, having seen all kinds of plots and schemes, Chu Yuqin believed that Wang Qingci definitely harbored some designs on Lu Chen.
Seeing Chu Yuqin still there, Wang Qingci was also stunned for a moment.
In the end, Chu Yuqin refrained from using force, as Lu Chen had already declared that Wang Qingci was his.
However, Chu Yuqin still gave a cold warning, “Although I don’t know who you are, I must remind you that if I find you have any designs on Chen’er, wishing to use him for your unspeakable goals, not only you, but also the force behind you will pay the price!”
Hearing these words, Wang Qingci smiled faintly and then said, “Madam Chu, how come I feel that you harbor a great hostility towards me? Could it be that Madam Chu has become jealous after listening at the wall all night?”
As soon as Wang Qingci finished speaking, a gust of wind radiated out from the center of Chu Yuqin’s body, lifting the hem of her dress.
Seeing this, Wang Qingci’s smile disappeared in an instant.
Half-step Grandmaster, even at the level of projecting Inner Strength outward!
North Prince Mansion truly wasn’t as simple as she had thought.
Afterward, Wang Qingci turned her head and left. “Madam Chu, your servant will return home for today. Please rest assured, your servant is merely the Prince’s female slave, and poses no threat to your place in the Prince’s heart..”
