His cultivation level is not high, he only has the cultivation level of a first-grade Taoist god.
Originally, with his cultivation level, he wanted to go from the border of Chu State to the Imperial Capital of Chu State. This journey was a hundred and eighty thousand miles away, and there were countless demons and villains along the way, so it was extremely dangerous.
What's more, now he has provoked an unknown force, and the other party sent dead soldiers to assassinate him, which is enough to show their determination to let Chen You die.
Faced with many dangers, Chen You had to lower himself, hoping to invite Lin Bai to go to the Eighteen Imperial States with him.
"If Brother Lin doesn't want to, I will never force you."
"I just hope that Brother Lin can offer me a sacrifice during the Qingming Festival next year, so that the time we spend traveling together will not be in vain."
"Brother Lin, I'm leaving."
Chen You sighed, not wanting to force anyone into trouble, so he said goodbye and left.
Lin Bai finally couldn't bear it and said, "Brother Chen, stay here."
"Well, since we are destined to meet each other, I will go on a walk with Brother Chen."
"Anyway, I'm not very familiar with the route to the Eighteen Imperial States."
Chen You raised his eyebrows with joy and said with a smile: "Hahaha, thank you Brother Lin, please rest assured, Brother Lin, I have already studied the map of Chu State, and I am very familiar with the road to the Eighteen Imperial States."
"You and I will have a rest in Ziwei City first. I am injured and need a night to heal."
"Tomorrow at dawn, we will set off for the Eighteen Imperial States."
Lin Bai nodded in agreement, and the two found an inn in Ziwei City and stayed there temporarily.
Late at night, Lin Bai sat cross-legged in his room, recovering his consumed spiritual energy.
Chen Youku was sitting in the room. There was no light on and the room was dark.
The window is open, and the bright moonlight shines into the room.
At this time, a figure flashed and appeared in the room. He immediately knelt down on one knee and humbly shouted: "My subordinate Zhu Mo, pay homage to His Highness King Chen."
"My subordinate came late and frightened His Highness Prince Chen. This subordinate deserves death!"
Chen You held the tea cup, put it to his mouth and sipped the tea gently, and asked: "Who is the person who assassinated me? Have you found out?"
Zhu Mo, who was shrouded in dark shadows, said coldly: "My subordinates have just gone to the government office to see the bodies of those warriors. Their faces were all disfigured, and there was no mark or identity information left on their bodies. They looked like they were trained by some people."
Death warrior."
"His Royal Highness Chen, it is very difficult to find the dead."
"If we return to the Zhaoxing Division headquarters in the imperial capital, we may be able to find out many clues."
Chen You smiled coldly and put the tea cup on the table. The crisp "thunk" sound was especially clear in the darkness.
He stood up slowly, walked to the window, and looked up at the bright moon: "Humph, is there still a need to go to the Zhaoxing Division to investigate?"
"In the entire Chu Kingdom, there is only one person who doesn't want me to return to the imperial capital."
"Third Prince."
Chen You said coldly.
Zhu Mo trembled all over and did not dare to answer. He stayed in the darkness without saying a word.
"Hmph." Chen You snorted again: "Back then, they teamed up to force me to leave the imperial capital. They forced my father to make me the county king and keep me away from the imperial city."
"What's the result? Will they be at peace after I leave?"
"Hmm."
"It's still dog eat dog."
"After more than twenty years of disputes, the third prince defeated the eldest prince, the second prince, the seventh prince, and the ninth prince successively."
"No matter how dead or useless, there will be no good ending."
"The third prince failed so much, but in the end, my father still didn't give him the crown prince position."
Chen You stood at the window and talked about his sadness in detail.
Zhu Mo remained silent as always, Zhao Xingsi obeyed the orders of the Chu royal family.
But there is an iron rule in the Zhaoxing Division, that is, the Zhaoxing Division must not participate in the internal fighting of the royal family, otherwise, the nine clans will be implicated and their bones will be shattered.
So when Chen You talked about the internal fighting in the royal family and the prince's seizure of the heir, he didn't dare to say a word and could only kneel on the ground obediently and listen to Chen You's complaints.
Zhu Mo didn't respond, and Chen You knew it well and didn't force him, but just talked to himself.
"I'm afraid I will be in bad luck when I return to Beijing this time."
Chen You's face was full of sadness, and he let out a long sigh, with helpless despair in his eyes.
"No matter what... I still hope to live until three years later and celebrate my father's birthday before I die."
"Why……"
Chen You sighed long and short, unable to express the pain and sadness in his heart.
"Zhu Mo, please prepare yourself. I will set off back to the imperial capital tomorrow."
"The Third Prince will not give up. Along the way, he will definitely send more dead soldiers to chase me."
"When we set off tomorrow, you will be in the dark, and Brother Lin and I will be in the light."
"If you encounter danger, take action again."
Chen You carefully arranged the next steps.
Zhu Mo nodded and accepted the order: "Follow the order."
However, Zhu Mo still asked one more question: "Your Highness, is the 'Brother Lin' you mentioned, the one who saved you in the alleyway today?"
"I have just ordered the Zhaoxing Division to investigate, and it turns out that there is no identity information about this person within the territory of Chu State."
"Is this person reliable?"
"In my opinion, as long as the Zhaoxing Division protects you along the way, His Highness will be able to return to the Imperial Capital safely without any need to receive help from others."
Chen You waved his hand and said: "Brother Lin...has extremely high cultivation and extremely ruthless methods, but his city is also extremely deep."
"He and I came from the Qitian Sect territory along the way, and we got along for more than half a month. I didn't realize that he was such a powerful swordsman."
Hearing this, Zhu Mo asked: "Your Highness wants to recruit this person into the Chu Kingdom? Will he serve the dynasty?"
Chen You said repeatedly: "No, no, no, I never thought about letting him stay in Chu State, I just wanted to make a friend."
"A friend who doesn't need to scheming or deceitful."
"A friend you can be honest with."
Seeing this, Zhu Mo didn't ask any more questions.
After the arrangements were made, Zhu Mo left the inn quietly.
The room where Chen You lived was right next door to Lin Bai.
After Zhu Mo arrived, he stayed in Chen You's room for an hour. Lin Bai, who lived next door, didn't notice at all.
It is obvious that this person is not only highly cultivated, but also quite accomplished in the art of hiding.
There was nothing to say all night, and in the blink of an eye it was dawn.
Chen You came to Lin Bai's door early, knocked on the door and shouted: "Brother Lin, it's time for us to set off."
Lin Bai packed up, opened the door and came out, smiling: "Brother Chen, how is your injury?"
Chen You smiled and said: "Although I have not recovered to my peak, I can still be considered to have recovered."
"Ziwei City is by no means a kind place, we'd better set off as soon as possible."
Lin Bai thought of those dead soldiers and immediately understood Chen You's intention to leave as soon as possible.
Immediately, Lin Bai did not refuse and left with Chen You.
"There is a teleportation array in Ziwei City. We can use the teleportation array to leave here first, which can save a lot of time."
Chen You took Lin Bai towards the second teleportation formation of Ziwei City. Along the way, he talked and laughed with Lin Bai and explained the customs and customs of Chu country to Lin Bai.
