Just when Su Chen was taking the Life and Death Universe Fruit in the secret room to hit the realm, everything in the outside world was proceeding in an orderly manner.
The next day, a rather explosive news came from the Yaohai Palace. That is, the Yaohai monarch summoned the eldest prince and the fourth prince, and gave each of them a county as a fiefdom!
People in Yaohai City naturally know what this news means. It means that the monarch of Yaohai Kingdom has determined the scope of choosing the prince. Nine times out of ten, the prince will be born among the eldest prince and the fourth prince.
.
Moreover, what is really surprising is not this. What is surprising is that the counties to which the two princes were entrusted, and the county to which the fourth prince was enfeoffed, are obviously much better than the county to which the eldest prince was enfeoffed!
This is not to say that the monarch gave the fourth prince a good county, but that the county given to the eldest prince was really bad. It was Chiming County, which ranked last in the Yaohai Kingdom!
As we all know, Chiming County is very barren, and most of the ground is covered with useless Chiming stones, so that no crops can grow.
But now, the monarch has given this county to the eldest prince as a fief. What kind of signal does this send?
You know, the candidate recommended by the eldest prince has just won the championship in the martial arts competition. Even if the monarch does not want to see the eldest prince, he will not embarrass the eldest prince in such an important matter as a fiefdom, right?
Suddenly, various speculations about the reason for the eldest prince's fiefdom were rampant.
"What? The fiefdom my father gave to me is Chi Min County?"
When the fourth prince heard the news in the mansion, he felt relieved. Most of the resentment in his heart caused by Si Jie's incident in the past few days was relieved at once.
"My father actually gave a rubbish place like Chiming County to the boss. This is really a piece of cake in the sky. But, how did this happen?"
The fourth prince thought about it. He and the eldest prince entered the palace separately, so he only knew that his own fiefdom was chosen by him, but who chose the eldest prince's fiefdom?
Could it be that the eldest prince chose it himself? The eldest prince wouldn’t be so foolish as to choose the most rubbish county as his fiefdom, right?
So, could it be that the eldest prince chose a county that was too good but was not approved by the monarch, so he was given the most rubbish county?
Or maybe the eldest prince angered the monarch, so he was punished like this?
The fourth prince did not know all these things, but he could at least be sure of one thing, that is, the monarch did not pay much attention to the eldest prince, otherwise it would not have been possible to give the eldest prince a fiefdom in a poor place like Chiming County.
There is no difference between having that kind of broken fiefdom and not having it. It is so barren that the eldest prince cannot get any benefit from it.
"It seems that my father still values ​​me more. It's time to think of a way to make my father make up his mind."
The fourth prince was in high spirits and completely swept away the bad luck of the martial arts competition.
…
A few days later, Su Chen came out of seclusion feeling refreshed.
"I have broken through to the second level of life and death."
Su Chen estimated that with his current fighting strength, he would be able to fight the man in black cloak head-on.
At that moment, I left the secret training room and went to see my companions. Li Shitong and Gu Qianxue were both promoted to high-level Great Alchemy Kings.
And Xue Yong, Jian Qi and Gu Qianyin, with the support of Su Chen's many pills and cultivation resources, are not far behind. All three of them have entered the high level of the Reincarnation Realm and are working hard towards the half-step of life and death.
Step into the direction of the environment.
Everyone's gratifying progress also made Su Chen very happy.
After Su Chen came out of seclusion, the eldest prince quickly came to Su Chen's mansion.
"Brother Xian, I listened to you and chose Chiming County as my fiefdom. Although my father thought it was strange, he still agreed to me. Now Chiming County has been officially handed over to me and has become my fiefdom."
The eldest prince said, looking at Su Chen. Obviously, he already wanted to know the reason why Su Chen asked him to choose Chiming County as his fiefdom.
Moreover, Chi Min County is now the fiefdom of the eldest prince, so he is qualified to know the reason.
"Your Highness, please take a look."
Su Chen took out a dark red stone and placed it on the table.
"This is the red stone."
The eldest prince said that this stone was the sample of the Chiming Stone that Su Chen asked the eldest prince to send someone to retrieve from Chiming County last time.
"Your Highness doesn't know something, but this is a good thing, an absolute treasure."
Su Chen patted the red stone and said to the eldest prince.
"What's so good about this red stone?"
The eldest prince asked confused.
"What do you think is the greatest feature of Chi Minshi, Your Highness?"
Su Chen asked.
"The biggest feature? It must be hard."
The eldest prince quickly replied.
"Yes, red stone is one of the hardest materials in the world."
Su Chen said, "Then why doesn't anyone make it into a weapon?"
"That's because nothing can cut the red stone, and the red stone does not melt when heated, so it cannot be made into the shape of a divine weapon."
The eldest prince quickly replied.
"Yes, that's why I say this thing is a treasure. It may not be useful to others, but to us, it is definitely a treasure."
Su Chen said with a smile.
The eldest prince continued to look at Su Chen doubtfully. After a moment, he seemed to have come to his senses and blinked: "Brother Xian, could it be that... do you have a way to melt the Red Ming Stone?"
To be honest, the eldest prince himself felt unconvinced when he said this.
If the opponent was not Su Chen, the eldest prince would definitely scold him, because the opponent was obviously cheating and there was no way he could melt the red stone.
Su Chen smiled slightly and did not explain. He just took out an alchemy cauldron and a small bottle from the space ring.
Then, under the gaze of the eldest prince, Su Chen opened the small bottle, sprinkled the purple powder inside on the red stone, then put the red stone into the alchemy cauldron and burned it with the alchemy fire.
Soon, an astonishing scene appeared. After being sprinkled with the purple powder and then burned by the elixir fire, the red stone miraculously turned into a pile of dark red liquid!
It actually got melted!
The eldest prince's eyes widened, and the confidants behind him were no better, with their mouths wide open.
Su Chen continued to control the elixir fire, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the dark red liquid formed by melting the pile of crimson stones was cast into a short dagger.
Su Chen held the dagger and inserted it into the wall. The hard bluestone on the wall was cut open by the dagger as easily as cutting tofu.
Miracle, simply a miracle!
Weapons were actually smelted out of red stone, and they were so hard! Just when Su Chen was taking the Life and Death Universe Fruit in the secret room to hit the realm, everything in the outside world was proceeding in an orderly manner.
