Chapter 797 Reward
The flying knife stopped quietly between the rocks, flickering slightly.

Chu Zhiyuan sat in his own courtyard, deep in thought.

This group of Yuanzhen people were obviously preparing to cause trouble. If it weren’t for the assassination by the demon master in front of them, they would have taken action.

The goal is to prevent the big wedding.

However, they were indeed well-informed and actually knew that the demons were planning to assassinate them.

Qianji Tower and the Supervisory Office obviously did not get the news, otherwise they would have found a way to pass on such important news long ago.

Yuan Zhen’s Tingfeng Pavilion is obviously more sensitive in Phoenix Imperial City.

A master from the demon clan sneaked in and wanted to assassinate me…

He was slightly excited.

Although Tianlongyin has reached the fourth transformation, the realm of the Infinite Light Sutra is still at the second transformation.

It takes a long time to improve.

The Haoyang Demon-Subduing Mirror should be the shortcut, and I was just about to confirm my guess.

These demon masters arrived at the right time.

Fu Zheng came over and said softly, “Your Highness, the princess wants to see you.”

Chu Zhiyuan stood up.

When he entered the princess’ courtyard, Li Yuchun was supporting the twelfth princess Li Miaotan and slowly walking out of the house.

Li Miaotan looked pale and weak.

Chu Zhiyuan formed seals with his hands and chanted the dragon spell.

Li Miaotan suddenly became fuller and more energetic at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She looked at Chu Zhiyuan helplessly.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: “Do you feel better?”

Li Miaotan shook her head slightly.

The injury did not improve.

He still had to rely on the Dragon Spell, otherwise he would feel drowsy and extremely weak.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: “Is Ling Zun still missing?”

Li Miaotan shook his head.

Li Yuchun snorted, “It’s going to be hard to find them!”

“Yuchun!” Li Miaotan said with a slight frown.

Li Yuchun curled her red lips and closed her mouth angrily.

Chu Zhiyuan said: “You dare to speak ill of Ling Zun, you are ignorant and fearless.”

“I didn’t say anything bad about them!” Li Yuchun quickly replied, “Sir, please don’t talk nonsense.”

Li Yuzhen floated into the courtyard lightly, with a smile on her beautiful face.

“Sister, how did you harvest?” Li Yuchun asked hurriedly.

Li Yuzhen smiled and said, “Huang Zongguan has come to check it out personally. I guess there will be a reward soon.”

Huang Rui is the chief steward of the inner court, second only to the emperor himself.

He, the chief steward, came in person to check the corpses of these demon masters, which was no different from the emperor coming in person.

It is obvious that they attach great importance to these corpses.

The number of corpses of so many demon masters is the largest in history.

No wonder the emperor attaches great importance to it.

Therefore, there will definitely be a generous reward.

Li Miaotan smiled and said, “Father is very generous in rewarding me.”

Chu Zhiyuan asked: “What rewards can everyone get?”

“My Lord, what do you want?” Li Yuzhen asked.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, “I want a lot, life-saving treasures, top-notch swordsmanship. The swordsmanship here in Phoenix is ​​peerless.”

Among the three dynasties, Yuanzhen and Fenghuang dynasties were both proficient in swordsmanship, while Yujing Dynasty was good at fists and feet.

Compared to Yuanzhen, the swordsmanship of the Phoenix Dynasty is even more prosperous.

I have the Great Light Fist, the Heavenly Dragon Palm, and the Great Demon Subduing Seal, which are enough for me.

But Fu Zheng’s swordsmanship was only of the second grade, not the first grade.

This is the best opportunity.

“A life-saving treasure and top-notch swordsmanship…” Li Yuzhen pondered.

She was thinking about how to pass on this news and let the emperor know.

Li Yuchun asked, “These two?”

Chu Zhiyuan asked: “You can only choose one?”

“Don’t you want an elixir?” Li Yuchun said, “Phoenix Nirvana Pill.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed.

Fu Zheng’s eyes widened.

She thought Li Yuchun said Chu Zhiyuan was too greedy for asking for two things, but she didn’t expect that he asked for less.

Li Miaotan said: “Father is very generous in rewarding. With so many corpses of demon clan masters, three rewards are not much.”

“Three things…” Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile, “In addition to the treasure that can save my life, I also need top-notch swordsmanship. If there is anything else, it would be the flying knife technique.”

The Diwu Academy of the Yujing Dynasty actually does not have the top flying knife techniques.

There doesn’t seem to be any top-notch flying knife masters in this world, and I’ve never heard of any great flying knife masters.

Sword and palm techniques are all in the same world, and they also have some of the effects of flying knives, so few people specialize in the study of flying knives.

It is already an anomaly to be able to obtain the Autumn Water Divine Sword, but it is a pity that there is no matching flying knife technique.

“Flying knife…” Li Yuzhen murmured.

Li Miaotan was also thinking.

Li Yuzhen said: “I have never heard of this. I will go ask.”

After she said that, she stood up and left.

–

In the early morning, the air is chilly.

The cold air was mixed with a faint fragrance, which was the aroma wafting from the breakfast stalls on the street.

Under the leadership of Li Yuzhen, Chu Zhiyuan, Fu Zheng and Lu Haoyuan came to a mansion.

This mansion is magnificent, with three gatehouses and six wide steps.

The stone lions on both sides are lifelike and majestic.

There is a wide open space in front of the door, with a horse post on the east side and a few stools on the west side for sitting and resting.

The roof is covered with bright yellow glazed tiles, which sparkle brightly in the early morning sun.

As soon as you see this mansion, four words will come to your mind: magnificent.

“My Lord, this is the Prince Consort’s residence.” Li Yuzhen said with a smile, “It was not originally this one, but it was changed to this one today.” Chu Zhiyuan said, “Isn’t this considered an overstep?”

“Of course not.” Li Yuzhen said: “This was the residence of Prince Ping’s lineage. Unfortunately, Prince Ping’s lineage declined and has been cut off until now. The inner palace was renovated and granted as the Prince Consort’s residence.”

“King Ping…” Chu Zhiyuan searched quickly in his mind.

Soon he found information about King Ping and couldn’t help but frown and asked, “King Ping?”

“Does the Prince Consort think this house is unlucky?”

“This lineage of Prince Ping is indeed strange, how could the incense be cut off?”

“It’s hard to explain the subtleties behind this, but there’s a widely circulated saying.”

“What statement?”

“It is said that the Prince Ping who founded the palace offended a demon, and was cursed by the demon in a strange way, causing him to have no children or grandchildren.”

“Is there such a saying?” Chu Zhiyuan was surprised: “Does anyone believe it?”

“Many people believe this, because the incense supply to Prince Ping’s mansion has been cut off in a strange way. It’s just too coincidental.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded thoughtfully.

As far as he knew, accidents kept happening to the legitimate sons and grandsons of Prince Ping’s Mansion.

Originally, the descendants of Prince Ping’s palace were not prosperous. After several premature deaths, they eventually died out.

It seems that there is a hidden force that keeps causing accidental deaths of the descendants of Prince Ping.

Some drowned, some died on horseback, some went into a rage, and some were assassinated.

Various ways of death occurred among the descendants of Prince Ping’s Mansion, resulting in the family line not being passed down for more than five generations.

Chu Zhiyuan looked up at the magnificent mansion and said helplessly, “Is there anything wrong with this house?”

“Of course there is no problem.” Li Yuzhen said: “Both the inner court and the Fengtian Palace have been carefully checked, there is absolutely no problem.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

According to King Ping’s status, his mansion had already been inspected by Fengtian Palace.

So there should be no problem with the mansion.

Li Yuzhen said: “If Prince Consort doesn’t want to live here, then go somewhere else.”

Fu Zheng hurriedly asked, “Sister Li, why did you choose to give this mansion to His Highness? It’s too unlucky.”

There should be nothing wrong with this mansion, but people will think too much about it and think there is something wrong with it, so they stay away from it.

Does granting a problematic mansion to the prince consort indicate dissatisfaction with the prince consort?
This is the most important.

Li Yuzhen said: “Among the vacant houses in the imperial city, there is no house bigger and more magnificent than this one.”

Chu Zhiyuan used his super sense to scan the mansion and saw everything clearly from top to bottom.

It was indeed peaceful and there was nothing unusual, no evil spirit or demonic aura.

There is no gloomy atmosphere either.

“Your Highness?” Fu Zheng looked at Chu Zhiyuan: “Let’s go to another place. This house is too gloomy.”

Chu Zhiyuan said: “I practiced the Infinite Light Sutra, which allows me to stay in the Great Light Realm, and it is most suitable for dispelling this kind of evil energy.”

If you are really worried, just stick the Talisman of Light on the wall.

The whole mansion will become warm, as if the sun is shining forever.

“But…” Fu Zheng hesitated.

She still felt it was inappropriate.

Chu Zhiyuan said: “Let’s go here,…it’s close to the Princess’s Mansion.”

This is probably one of the considerations.

It’s only two streets away from the Princess Palace, and it’s just a few steps to get there.

As a prince consort, he does not live with the princess. This is the rule of the Phoenix Dynasty.

The prince consort has his own mansion, and the princess still lives in her original mansion.

The princess missed her prince consort, so she sent someone to greet him. After the prince consort stayed overnight, he was ready to go back.

This is the princess of the Phoenix Dynasty, whose status is so high that it is far beyond the reach of other dynasties.

Correspondingly, the status of the son-in-law of the emperor was low, and he could be summoned at will and dismissed at will.

Being closer to the princess’s mansion, it would be possible to hide it from others.

This way, I don’t have to be seen clearly by others every time I go there, which would be embarrassing.

“Then let’s go here.” Li Yuzhen said, “Your Highness also thinks this place is very good. It’s close and convenient.”

Fu Zheng shook her head.

The door slowly opened, and rows of copper nails shone brightly in the sunlight.

Chu Zhiyuan walked up the stairs and entered his own mansion.

There were already servants and maids in the palace, all of whom were from clean families carefully selected by the inner court.

Chu Zhiyuan ignored all this and asked Youlan to deal with it in the future.

If you think about it, you will find that there is a lot of eyeliner in it and it is difficult to clean it.

By the time I had looked at every courtyard in the mansion, half an hour had passed.

This mansion is one third larger than his prince’s palace.

One is that the architectural specifications of the two dynasties are different, and the other is that the Prince Ping’s Palace is indeed extremely large.

When they returned to the princess’s mansion after a round trip, a purple-robed eunuch was waiting in the front hall with two red-robed eunuchs.

The purple-robed eunuch did not bring the imperial edict. He presented four purple boxes of different sizes and left quietly.

Li Miaotan sat in the armchair beside him with the support of Li Yuchun.

Chu Zhiyuan directly opened the four purple lacquer boxes.

Inside one of the boxes was a copy of a secret swordsmanship manual.

In the other box was a copy of the Flying Knife Technique, which cheered up Chu Zhiyuan.

The third box contains a bottle of elixir. Super sense cannot see what is inside the bottle, so it is speculated to be a Phoenix Nirvana Pill.

The fourth box was the largest, but it contained a snow-white dress.

Chu Zhiyuan took it out.

Shiny and smooth as satin, it drapes and flows like a long gown.

The robe was snow-white and spotless.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.

This is obviously for self-defense, and combined with the Moon Silkworm Frost Robe, the defense is even stronger.

The last time he fought against three demon elders, Yuecan Shuangyi’s defense helped a lot, otherwise he would not have dared to exchange injuries with the first elder.

With this addition, the defense is increased, which means more safety.

He shook his white robe lightly.

Li Miaotan said: “This is the Jixue robe, which is best at resisting swords and knives.”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, “Very good.”
