"Daoyou, what do you mean by that?"

Princess Le Zhao's delicate body stiffened visibly, and her delicate face looked a little unnatural.

"Now that you've said that, Princess, are you still going to continue?"

Zhou Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with great certainty without giving in:

"I guess all this is in your plan, including taking me to the Ming Treasury to get treasures, inviting me to your house for retreat, and every step is to lure out Xiaohua, the undercover arranged by the other princes beside you, and finally use me to eliminate him, right?"

The deep voice echoed in the secret room, and every word and sentence was clear and coherent.

Le Zhao's expression also changed more obviously at this moment. She fell silent. After a long time, she sighed and said admiringly: "Daoyou is very observant, and I couldn't hide it from your eyes."

"I did suspect Xiaohua a long time ago, but she disguised herself very well and was a guard given by my father. If I showed it too obviously, I would be questioning my father, so I could only go with the flow and do this."

Le Zhao's words were full of apology and helplessness.

The imperial power changed, and there were intrigues. If you don't have two brushes, you can't survive at all.

Xiaohua knew how to hide her cultivation. Since Le Zhao was suspicious of her, how could he not hide his shortcomings?

When they were attacked in the inn that day, in fact, whether it was Xiaohua or Le Zhao, they were capable of killing the Yaksha killer alone.

It's just that Xiaohua didn't reveal her strength, so Le Zhao naturally wouldn't take the initiative to expose it.

At this time, Zhou Jun's unexpected intrusion made Le Zhao have an idea, and a series of plans came into his mind instantly.

So there were all kinds of things later.

She took Zhou Jun into the Daming Treasury to take treasures to improve her cultivation, and then brought him back to the mansion for retreat, and asked Xiaohua to be the guard.

All this was done deliberately for Xiaohua to see and guide the other party.

Because no matter who arranged Xiaohua to be an undercover agent beside her, the essential purpose was only one, which was to stop her from participating in the Luotian Grand Hunt.

Killing Le Zhao was too difficult. She was a princess of Daming, and she was deeply loved by the Emperor Ming. She had countless life-saving treasures on her body, and she was on the Emperor Nanxing. How could she be so easy to kill?

Or in other words, it was simply impossible.

So if we want to do it, we have to start from other aspects.

For example, don't let Princess Le Zhao have external aid.

And the best way is naturally to get rid of the external aid she found before the Luotian Grand Hunt begins!

Princess Le Zhao took this as the center, laid out the situation, and planned all this.

Including her bringing Zhou Jun back to the mansion and choosing a retreat location for him, all of which were done on purpose.

A completely enclosed underground secret room, there is almost no better place to start than this.

If Xiaohua is really a traitor, she can't bear it at all.

So, all this happened in front of us.

"I don't like being used by others."

Zhou Jun's voice was very cold, and his face was even colder.

In fact, he really didn't notice anything wrong until Xiaohua coughed up blood inexplicably.

It looked like the previous injuries had erupted in the body, but it was not the case. Zhou Jun stabbed the sword himself, how could he not know the power?

This is simply a "hidden danger" that existed in the opponent's body a long time ago, perhaps poisoning, or other aspects.

And who else can do all this except Le Zhao, Xiaohua's apparent master?

In addition, the battle has been going on for so long, and Le Zhao has not been seen for a long time.

You know, this is the princess's mansion!

Such a thing happened in his own territory. Zhou Jun didn't believe that Le Zhao, a dignified princess of the Ming Dynasty, could be so drunkard that he didn't know anything at all, so he had these speculations in his mind.

"This matter is indeed Rongyue's fault, Taoist friend, please don't blame me."

Princess Yue Zhao Zhu Rongyue bowed immediately after seeing this, and then said: "The competition for the royal family has always been cruel, and Rongyue was forced to do this."

"But Taoist friend, you can rest assured that Rongyue has never had the intention to harm you. It is true that I asked you to be an external aid, and it is also true that I went to the Ming Dynasty treasury to take treasures to improve your cultivation!"

Princess Yue Zhao explained with a sincere look.

After listening to these words, Zhou Jun couldn't say anything more.

In principle, he didn't want to be used by others.

But as the other party said, the many treasures in the Ming Dynasty treasury were also given to him sincerely to improve his cultivation.

As the saying goes, you should be grateful to others for your kindness, and you should be soft-handed when you receive others' help.

In this case, Zhou Jun's "principle" can only make a small concession.

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhou Jun now has no other way to deal with it except accepting the current situation.

He had just fought Xiaohua to the point of exhaustion, and had revealed all his trump cards. He also had injuries from resisting the thunder spell, and was at the end of his strength.

And Princess Le Zhao's true cultivation level, I'm afraid it's even better than Xiaohua. After all, if she's not even as good as Xiaohua, then there's no need for the other party to send Xiaohua as an undercover agent.

At this time, Zhou Jun should actually be thankful that Princess Le Zhao had no intention of harming him.

Otherwise, if there was any malice, whether he could continue to stand here would be another matter.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jun had to sigh and said, "Princess, you're worrying too much. I believe you."

"I hope the princess will give me a secret room so that I can continue to retreat."

As soon as these words came out, the matter was opened.

"Okay!"

Seeing this, Princess Le Zhao's slightly uneasy face couldn't help but turn into a touch of joy. She put her hands behind her back, tilted her head, and spoke coquettishly.

...

Five days later.

In the side hall of the princess's mansion, a small courtyard built on the ground.

Zhou Jun sat cross-legged under the shade of a tree. After a few days of recuperation, his injuries were finally completely healed.

Xiaohua's thunder method was too overbearing. He relied on the powerful attributes plus the Tianyang Holy Body, as well as various healing secret medicines and sword-drawing secret techniques to cultivate, and it took him five full days.

If it were someone else, even if he could save his life, he would probably have to lie down for three to five years.

"From the Emperor Chen Star Region to the Taizu Star Region, I was indeed a little too reckless on the way."

After a while, Zhou Jun opened his eyes, sighed slightly, and murmured in a self-reflective manner.

The universe is vast and boundless. Although the Emperor Chen Star Region is one of the six major star regions, its luck has declined in recent epochs, and it is difficult for strong people to emerge. The overall strength is different from that of the other five major star regions.

In addition, the Emperor Chen Star Region is also relatively remote from the ascension channel, and the Taizu Star Region has blocked most of the main forces of the Gui Clan for it.

Therefore, the Gui Clan that attacked the Emperor Chen Star Region are almost all very weak, and most of them are first- or second-level Gui Zun.

This gave Zhou Jun the illusion that he could run rampant in the universe. He thought that after solving the danger of Beiguan, he was also a top figure in the universe.

Killing the Son of Kunpeng made him even more arrogant, thinking that the geniuses of various races in the universe were just like him.

However, he ignored that the structures of creatures of various races were different, so there was also a difference in the judgment of the geniuses.

The Son of Kunpeng had practiced for three hundred years, and his cultivation level was just at the initial stage of the Heavenly Spirit Realm. In the Taizu Star Domain, he was completely defeated by Xiaohua, who was only more than a hundred years old.

But this does not mean that the Son of Kunpeng is weak, but that their race is like this.

The Kunpeng race is born with a long lifespan. Three hundred years is just the infancy. To have such a cultivation level is already a top genius.

The human race is different. When they are born, they are powerless and have a lifespan of only a few decades, but they have the talent of killing enemies and becoming stronger that the whole universe envies, and they can grow up quickly.

Zhou Jun killed the Holy Son of Kunpeng, thinking that the Kunpeng clan, the top creatures in the universe, was just like this. The Holy Son of the clan was over 300 years old, but his combat power was not as good as his ten years of cultivation.

He was a little proud in his heart, but when he came to the Taizu Star Region, he realized how vast the world was, and he almost fell in the hands of a female guard.

"The saint said that I should examine myself three times a day, and it was true that I was not deceived."

Zhou Jun sighed lightly. He almost lost his life this time. One was that his basic cultivation level was too low, and the other was that his mentality was indeed floating.

He forgot that this was the last golden age that the universe burst out before it disappeared.

There are so many geniuses among the creatures of various races, and there are so many heroes in the world. How can he be blindly arrogant?

After a deep self-awareness, Zhou Jun just calmed down and took out the [Ten Directions Controlling Qi Formation] that had not been fully sublimated from the space backpack, and looked at it.

He had to hurry up and complete his sublimation and start this retreat.

His basic realm was too low, and his desire for power had never been so strong as it was at this moment!
