Marquis Wu Li said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense, he is only stronger than you!"
"Haha, you point at such a kid and tell me he is better than me. Haha, it's so funny!" Master Ying laughed arrogantly.
Even the Ninth Prince looked at Marquis Wu Li with suspicion.
However, Marquis Wu Li was his confidant after all, so he really couldn't say anything openly.
"What's your name?" the Ninth Prince asked impatiently.
"Rogue cultivator, Lu Yu." Lu Yu said calmly.
A hint of contempt flashed across the eyes of the Ninth Prince.
Although Master Ying is a casual cultivator, his formation attainments are well-known throughout the Great Dragon Heavenly Dynasty.
But the boy in front of him didn't look very old, and he wasn't even very strong in cultivation.
There are definitely many people like this just to make up the numbers.
The Ninth Prince couldn't help but complain to Marquis Wu Li that Marquis Wu Li would choose such a person to participate in such a crucial competition.
However, Marquis Wu Li is his confidant after all.
It would not be a good idea to refute his face in person.
"Okay, I happen to be missing someone here, so you can fill it in." The Ninth Prince frowned slightly, but still said in a deep voice.
After all, he is just a person filling up the numbers.
The most important thing is how Master Ying can defeat those prince's men.
"Master Ying can rest in my house first. When the competition begins, I'll leave everything to you!" The Ninth Prince stood up and said respectfully to Master Ying.
Master Ying stroked his beard, hummed, closed his eyes and rested his mind, and said nothing more from beginning to end.
"Your Highness, this Lu Yu is very strong. Back then..." Marquis Wu Li was a little reluctant.
By observing his words and expressions, he could already see the displeasure of the Ninth Prince.
But the Ninth Prince had no idea what kind of magical tricks Lu Yu was using at that time.
"I know that the defeat at that time was a big blow to you. However, after all, you are a person I value highly. I also hope that you can get out of the shadow of defeat as soon as possible and get back on your feet." The Ninth Prince gave a few words of encouragement.
Marquis Wu Li froze on the spot, then lowered his head and said, "Yes, thank you for your highness's advice."
After everyone left, Wu Lihou walked up to Lu Yu and said in a deep voice: "His Highness seems to dislike you very much. Do you know what to do?"
Lu Yu said calmly: "Don't worry, as long as I let him succeed in seizing the throne, then he will definitely be the prince."
There was one sentence that Lu Yu didn't say.
The reason why he supported the Ninth Prince was just to be able to enter the palace and find the whereabouts of Ji Chenyu's soul.
As for who will be the emperor, he is not interested at all.
"As long as you understand." Marquis Wu Li sighed and left the palace.
Lu Yu stayed here temporarily.
There were still ten days left before the competition to win the direct title, so he simply stayed here and practiced quietly.
The Ninth Prince was awarded the title of King of Jin, and the housekeeper in the palace took him to a guest room that was quiet after all, and he stopped caring.
Master Ruying has a sufficient supply of elixirs and spiritual stones every day, but there is nothing here in Lu Yu.
But Lu Yu didn't care, as he happened to be happy and free.
"Before that, I just want to consolidate my cultivation!" Lu Yu sat cross-legged in meditation and began to silently operate the technique.
Since he broke through to the out-of-body realm, the Divine Spring Youguo in his body has now expanded to the size of fifty cities.
There are many large and small cities in it, and an earth dragon vein runs across the ground.
The power of one city is equivalent to a strong person in the early stage of the Soul Realm!
Lu Yu currently had the power of fifty cities in his body. Once it exploded, even a strong man in the Inscription Realm would not be able to withstand it.
