I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 443 - 236: Rumors Are More Fearsome Than Tigers
Ning Zheng couldn’t be bothered to pay attention, continuing his cultivation, thinking too much was useless and only added to his worries.
Might as well strive to break through the Two Phases Realm.
He looked at his remaining Qi Fortune Value.
200,000!
Seems quite alright, he’s already able to break through the Two Phases Realm.
But he wasn’t in a hurry.
Choosing Dizzy Half-Awakening or breaking through a realm himself still needed consideration.
The days passed so quietly and uneventfully.
In the blink of an eye, more than a week had passed.
Gained another 70,000+ Qi Fortune Value.
The various projects at Xirong Academy were already on track.
The blacksmiths were still engaging in Pet Fusion, and queues were bursting with orders for Upper Grade Spirit Beast synthesis.
And over at Hairpin Lady, progress was also fast.
It’s said that a group of strong leeks came, after moving bricks they went to sweep tombs, and then to taverns, bookshops, and other instances.
They harvested big time.
Moreover, these blacksmiths played dirty.
Started spreading crazy rumors, about the true identity behind the scenes, spreading everywhere.
...
Capital City.
"Finally got in."
Gui Pu guaranteed that this was definitely the most torturous week of his life.
That Princess Xin’e was nothing short of a living demon.
The brick-moving site was fraught with danger, draining them of energy completely.
Beside them, those ancient graves were extremely unpleasant.
Their wisdom, means, and talent only narrowly allowed them to pass through, had it been anyone else, they’d probably be dead by now. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Who were they?
The most top-tier group in the world, a myth that frightened enemies, a legend that made worshippers frenzied.
And now?
They had become skilled in brick-laying, sweeping, eating dirt, and various other skills to perfection.
Fortunately, those who achieve great things don’t worry about minutiae!
If they exposed themselves now, the next infiltration wouldn’t be so easy; the Sage of the Xin Dynasty would certainly be on guard against them, for the sake of winning the world and achieving an empire, what’s a little reputation? They’ve all learned one trick: endure, lay bricks, endure! Build houses, endure, mop floors, endure.
However, they had just successfully walked out of the construction site’s Secret Realm, after hardships had come sweetness, upon seeing the new batch of workers brought in chatting:
"Have you heard?"
"Someone has already explored the depths of the Secret Realm, this case of the birth of the Xin Dynasty saint’s prince has big secrets!"
"What secrets? We’ve only just entered this site."
"They say a recent explorer of the deep palace, who wished to remain anonymous, revealed that in the final emperor city from tens of thousands of years ago, during its fall, a case of the ’True and False Crown Prince’ occurred inside."
"What do you mean?"
The person told a thrilling palace intrigue story.
"It’s said... speaking... then... favored that one lady... Empress dissatisfied... harem filled with dead princes... finally... succeeded in birthing the Crown Prince!"
The nearby Gui Pu and ancient tomb great powers silently looked at a mysterious behind-the-scenes manipulator, suspected to be of Xin dynasty royal blood.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Xinshenghua was angry in his heart, do you believe these rumors?
The distant voices kept speaking:
"Someone actually explored the secret realm information of the palace to this degree?"
"Back then, the Crown Prince was born, sent away before the demise of the kingdom?"
"Yes, it’s said that this Crown Prince now, is the behind-the-scenes manipulator, planning upheavals, intending to kill the emperor."
"Oh! He’s so ruthless?"
The crowd listened to the distant chatter, continuing to look at Xinshenghua.
Xinshenghua was completely silent.
That dialogue continued:
"Your logic is flawed, the Crown Prince, how can he kill his father, why not directly inherit the throne?"
"You don’t understand, the Crown Prince doesn’t want to either; the issue is that the Emperor, because of the logical flaw of death, forgot the Crown Prince born before his death, now wants to support the Xinyi Family, of course, he won’t agree!"
"So that’s how it is."
Gui Pu and those existing in ancient tombs showed completely bizarre expressions to a certain behind-the-scenes manipulator.
So reasonable and well-founded, a thought also emerged in their minds.
Could it be, it’s true?
Seems to perfectly explain this person’s background, after all his origins are very mysterious, to say he’s the Crown Prince does seem plausible.
Xinshenghua fell into a long silence: "Don’t be fooled."
Throughout the Capital City, who exactly is spreading rumors stealthily, without any evidence, all nonsense.
He clearly had no evidence, inexplicably felt it was the Xirong Divine Craftsman’s doing this sort of thing.
Xinshenghua originally wanted to lurk for a while longer.
But now someone was spouting nonsense, even saying he was someone’s son?
This plainly knocked him down a generation, an insult.
Even the grave owner next door, Gui Pu and others looked at him no longer respectfully, but with an expression as if saying, "You are the son, pretending to be an old relic" "We even regard you as the leader of this assassination action." A strange look.
"Who is spreading rumors?!!" Xinshenghua was angry, his chest heaving rapidly, his eyes full of anger.
If these rumors continue, when confronting the Sage of the Xin Dynasty, that Xin Xichen would wear a face of kindness saying: "No wonder couldn’t find your background, turns out you’re my long-lost biological son."
Thinking of this scene, his suppressed anger surged like a volcano.
Rumble!
"Follow me." Xinshenghua spoke hoarsely, "I’ll lead you into the imperial palace."
In a spacious and luxurious passage, on both sides were ornate carvings and ornaments, pillars thickly engraved with golden patterns.
Crack!
An exceedingly secret pathway suddenly opened.
"Could there still be such a secret path." The owner of a tomb in the forbidden area exposed a smile.
