Chapter 313: The Best Way to Protect the Princess

Princess Huansha's eyes were filled with a bright smile, living up to her title as a princess.

Compared to those glamorous celebrities online, her looks were not inferior, but more importantly, she exuded a certain charm.

"It would be troublesome for the two of you to accompany me on a tour of Wuyun Pavilion," Princess Huansha said with a radiant smile.

Han Kang reminded them once again, "The members of the Wu Sect are hiding in Longtai City with the intention of plotting against Princess Huansha. Even if you two have to sacrifice your lives, you must ensure the safety of Princess Huansha."

Han Kang's words were quite frightening, but in reality, there was nothing to worry about.

Wuyun Pavilion had long been infiltrated by their own people.

If the members of the Wu Sect harmed Princess Huansha in Longtai City, that would be outrageous.

However, the main purpose of these words was to remind the two of them to ensure the princess's safety.

"You don't have to follow us, a group of people is too boring," Princess Huansha said, then happily walked towards Qi Yuan and Han Xianyun.

Han Kang watched this scene with a pensive expression.

His younger brother's attitude towards him today was completely different.

Could it be... that he had heard something?

Han Kang gave a few more instructions, and the ministers of the Liusi Kingdom also said a few words before letting the three of them enter Wuyun Pavilion with peace of mind.

The princess had an alarm device on her, and if she encountered danger, the alarm would sound.

Most importantly, if there was an attack, the protective energy shield on the princess would activate, enough to withstand a sniper rifle shot.

This time, the three of them entered Wuyun Pavilion without any hindrance.

Princess Huansha seemed to be very talkative. She looked at Qi Yuan and slowly said, "Sir, you seem to be gloomy. Did something unhappy happen to you?"

Qi Yuan nodded vigorously, "I'm too poor."

Princess Huansha was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Qi Yuan to be so straightforward.

Her perception of Qi Yuan diminished slightly.

She felt that Qi Yuan was trying to climb a relationship with her.

It was normal to want to climb, but to climb without giving anything... was a bit too much.

"I only have one billion Qin Yuan coins," Qi Yuan's face was filled with worry.

At this moment, Princess Huansha was completely stunned.

The absurd idea that had just arisen in her mind felt ridiculous.

"One billion Qin Yuan coins is already a lot," Princess Huansha knew the exchange rate between the two countries. One billion Qin Yuan coins was a lot, a number that ordinary people would find difficult to reach in their lifetime.

"It's not a lot at all. I can't afford the things I want to buy," Qi Yuan looked disappointed.

"Mr. Qi, what do you want to buy that costs one billion? Are you planning to buy a fighter jet?" Han Xianyun asked in confusion.

"I want to buy... Gongxing," Qi Yuan said seriously, "Just now, I was slapped in the face. I almost couldn't even enter Wuyun Pavilion. I have to buy Gongxing and slap them back, otherwise... I'll lose face."

"...Han Xianyun."

Princess Huansha: "...Sir, are you joking?"

To think of buying Gongxing, that was quite daring.

Now she completely understood that she had misunderstood Qi Yuan. He wasn't borrowing money or seeking her help, he was just being humorous.

"I have too little money. Recently, I watched several videos and saw people like An Chuan and Jing Can, 20-year-old girls who became the richest newcomers with 80 trillion assets."

Compared to these people, I am really too poor.

How much beef do I have to give up eating to save up that much money?" Qi Yuan truly felt the gap between people.

He was contemplating whether he should pay attention to those accounts and engage in a fake marriage.

If one person had 80 trillion, if he scammed half of it, scammed a few more, wouldn't he be able to gather enough money to buy Gongxing?

However, there was still a problem.

"You're a princess, you should have connections. Can you help me find out something?" Qi Yuan looked at Princess Huansha with anticipation.

Princess Huansha felt like she was on a roller coaster, her judgment kept changing. She smiled gently and said, "Please, sir, go ahead."

"I want to know where I can buy Gongxing and how much it would cost," Qi Yuan asked his question.

He felt that he needed to start saving money.

When eating beef noodles, he couldn't add an extra serving of beef anymore.

He had to save up to buy Gongxing.

"I... don't know about that," Princess Huansha smiled awkwardly.

If it was just once, it could still be considered humorous.

But now... it was just absurd.

Upon hearing this answer, Qi Yuan felt quite disappointed.

Han Xianyun was sweating profusely.

He had interacted with Qi Yuan before and knew his abilities and personality.

Was Qi Yuan serious about this?

He didn't dare to continue this topic and changed the subject, saying, "Princess Huansha, it seems that there is no hostile relationship between the Wugui Kingdom and the Liusi Kingdom. Why would the members of the Wu Sect plot against you?"

Han Xianyun likes gossip, especially when it involves noble royal families.

It looks very melodramatic, full of gossip.

When Princess Huansha heard this, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes: "These followers of the Wujiao religion claim that I am the reincarnation of the daughter of the Wushen, and that I need to return to the heavenly realm and take care of the Wushen day and night!"

When Princess Liulisi was born, the king even requested the priests from the Wugui Kingdom to come and bestow blessings.

This is quite common among the royal families.

However, there was a problem with this blessing.

The priest from the Wujiao religion said that Princess Huansha is the most beloved youngest daughter of the Wushen reincarnated.

This youngest daughter, mischievous by nature, secretly ran from the heavenly realm to the mortal realm and needs to return to the heavenly realm to accompany the Wushen.

As for how to return to the heavenly realm, it's as simple as death.

So, the followers of the Wujiao religion have been planning to kill Princess Huansha.

Naturally, the king of Liulisi Kingdom was extremely angry about this.

Sending a princess to her death is not allowed in terms of family affection, and moreover, where does the dignity of the royal family go?

However, the Wugui Kingdom has a lot of trade with the Liulisi Kingdom, so this matter has never been brought to the surface.

"These followers of the Wujiao religion are shameless. I even said that their Wushen is my wife. Could it be that they want to send the Wushen to my bed?" Han Xianyun said.

"You make a good point," Princess Huansha chuckled, covering her mouth.

Qi Yuan, who was next to them, looked at Han Xianyun coldly and said, "Scumbag, your wife's blood hasn't even cooled yet, and you're already thinking about a new wife!"

Although Qi Yuan is also a scumbag, he can't be as shameless as Han Xianyun, not even knowing if the other person is a man or a woman, and calling them a wife.

As the saying goes, don't waste a good girl, and Qi Yuan can only fulfill the first half of it.

"Don't!" Han Xianyun thought of his amazing wife and his legs went weak.

Princess Huansha beside him widened her eyes, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.

However, being clever, she didn't ask further, but continued to change the topic: "The Wujiao religion is just making noise. In all these years, I have been living well. With the protection of my father, the king's guards, the followers of the Wujiao religion can't do anything to me."

The Liulisi Kingdom where Princess Huansha is located is a small country, but it has abundant resources and has become very wealthy by selling them.

There are also many guards around Princess Huansha.

Various gene warriors who are willing to die for her.

Outside the Wuyun Pavilion, there is now such a team of warriors.

"The Wujiao religion is indeed just boasting. Some time ago, our Qin Yuan Kingdom's Martial Artists directly captured one of their priests!" Han Xianyun said proudly.

In today's society, there are few Martial Artists with notable achievements.

Princess Huansha smiled happily and said, "Actually, I have admired Qin Yuan's Martial Dao since I was young. Unfortunately, my father does not allow me to practice, fearing that I will become a muscular woman."

She said this casually, with a hint of regret.

Han Qianyun looked at Princess Huansha and agreed, "I think your father is right. If you were to practice martial arts, the world might be lacking another peerless beauty. Besides... you must have taken genetic potions. Your combat power might be even stronger than mine, so there's no need to forcefully pursue the path of Martial Dao."

"Genetic potions are very useful, but I don't have any combat power at all. Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept asking you to protect me when we came in." Princess Huansha smiled brightly, like a warm winter sun.

"Don't worry, with us here, even if the Shadow Team of the Wujiao Church comes, they won't be able to do anything to you!" Han Qianyun said, glancing at Qi Yuan beside her.

Han Qianyun had personally witnessed Qi Yuan's strength.

Being able to annihilate a military camp, he could be called a land immortal!

The strongest force of the Wujiao Church is the Shadow Team, all of them fanatical believers who frequently carry out suicide attacks.

But after all, they are mere mortals. Even if they have taken genetic potions, how can they compare to someone like Qi Yuan, who is an immortal?

One comes, one dies. Two come, one pair dies.

Princess Huansha noticed this detail and was slightly stunned.

Although she admired Martial Artists, she also knew that their strength was limited.

This Han Qianyun, judging from her gaze, why is she so confident in Qi Yuan?

"I wonder how the two of you will protect me?" Princess Huansha immediately asked with a smile, her eyes fixed on Qi Yuan.

As long as it's not gossip, she is still very willing to explore and discover some people's secrets.

Qi Yuan looked at Princess Huansha, seemingly seriously considering her question, "That depends on what methods the people from the Wujiao Church have."

"The Shadow Team of the Wujiao Church consists of thousands of members who are proficient in various firearms, blades, assassination, and hacking techniques. When necessary, they can even provide aerial support. Ordinary Martial Artists would have no chance against them..." Princess Huansha answered truthfully.

Han Qianyun nodded, "To be honest, if I were to encounter members of the Shadow Team here, I would have no way out."

The combat teams of the Shadow Team have all taken specially made genetic potions, which can greatly enhance the strength of the users, but it actually disrupts the balance of the human body.

The members of these combat teams cannot live for more than ten years.

This kind of genetic potion is prohibited in most countries.

But the Wugui Kingdom doesn't care about that.

And there are so many fanatical believers who worship the Wugui God.

That's why the combat teams of the Shadow Team are never short of people.

"It's indeed quite troublesome. On the Blue Star, they can all be opponents of the Dragon Group. Apart from the Crooked Mouth Dragon King or the King of Soldiers and God of War, hardly anyone can rival them. It seems, Princess Huansha, you are very dangerous," Qi Yuan muttered to himself.

Han Qianyun looked puzzled and asked, "What Blue Star? What Dragon Group?"

"Let me tell you a secret. Actually, I am an alien, and you guys... foreigners!" Qi Yuan said, not taken seriously by Princess Huansha, who treated it as a joke. "I am dangerous, how will you protect me?"

"It's simple, as long as they don't find you, everything will be fine," Qi Yuan replied.

"Huh?" Princess Huansha was confused and didn't understand Qi Yuan's meaning.

"If the members of the Shadow Team can't find you, they can't kill you. So, the best way to protect Princess Huansha is to turn you into... a caterpillar!" Qi Yuan said calmly.

Princess Huansha was dumbfounded.

Han Qianyun was also stunned.

They didn't quite understand.

"Transform!" Qi Yuan pointed his finger, and Princess Huansha instantly disappeared.

Han Qianyun widened his eyes and asked, "Where is Princess Huansha?"

"She is right in front of you, turned into a caterpillar by me. From now on, you should call her Caterpillar Princess," Qi Yuan said, waving his hand and gesturing next to Han Qianyun. "See, Princess Huansha is right here."

Han Qianyun blinked his eyes but didn't see anything.

"Aren't you nearsighted? How can't you see such a big caterpillar?" Qi Yuan said, feeling speechless.

To protect the caterpillar from dying, Qi Yuan even put a protective shield around it.

"I can't see," Han Qianyun shook his head.

"It seems like you need to wear a microscope glasses," Qi Yuan said, waving his hand.

The caterpillar fell into a crack between two bricks.

"Alright, I have put Princess Huansha in a safe place. After we finish playing, I will bring her back. Now, the members of the Shadow Team can't see her, so she is safe," Qi Yuan yawned.

Han Qianyun still had a puzzled look on his face.

Protecting the princess... like this?

Turning the princess into a caterpillar?

Who would protect a princess like this?

He realized that when he spent too much time with Qi Yuan, his head would always feel dizzy and unable to keep up.

However, suddenly, he thought of something and blurted out, "Mr. Qi, now that the princess has turned into a caterpillar, what if we can't find her when we come back?"

"That's simple, you go borrow a microscope to find her," Qi Yuan answered without hesitation.

"But... what if I accidentally step on her while searching?" Han Qianyun worried.

Now that the princess had turned into a caterpillar, such a weak creature, she would probably drown in a mouthful of saliva.

"Well, then I'm sorry, my friend. You would be a murderer, and you would have killed the princess," Qi Yuan shrugged and walked straight towards the depths of Wuyun Pavilion.

Han Qianyun hesitated for a moment but eventually followed.

At this moment, he felt uncertain.

He could only pray to the gods that the princess would be lucky.

The two of them no longer paid attention to Princess Huansha.

After all, wasn't the goal to protect the princess?

Turning her into a caterpillar, isn't that considered protection?

At this moment, the two arrived at Wuyun Pavilion.

Ahead was a thirteen-story wooden building.

By now, Han Qianyun had recovered somewhat, and his mind was no longer in chaos.

"Wuyun Pavilion was built before the year 1300. What we see in front of us is a reconstruction. This entire building, except for one place, has been passed down from 1300 years ago and is the most precious part of Wuyun Pavilion. That is the Wuyun Engraving. The Wuyun Engraving is made of specially crafted Thunder Yin Wood, taking hundreds of years to form, and it doesn't rot for thousands of years. On the Wuyun Engraving, there are marks left by thousands of martial artists over a thousand years, for future generations to admire and learn from," Han Qianyun explained with a look of reverence when mentioning the Wuyun Engraving.

"Why is it called Wuyun Pavilion and not Wuyun Building?" Qi Yuan's focus surprised Han Qianyun once again.

"Maybe... the person who built it liked the word 'pavilion'," Han Qianyun casually made up an answer.

The two of them took the elevator and quickly arrived at the top floor of Wuyun Pavilion.

At the highest level, there is a Wu Yun engraving.

The Wu Yun engraving is about ten square meters in size.

The entire Wu Yun engraving is made of wood, with a yellow color and a hint of purple, giving off a sense of nobility.

This kind of wood is very suitable for making coffins.

On the Wu Yun engraving, various marks are preserved.

There are finger imprints, sword marks, and even large footprints.

"The Martial Dao strength of these predecessors is truly terrifying. They can even leave marks on the Wu Yun engraving with their fingers.

Although I have reached the limit of Martial Dao, I can't leave such imprints with just my fingers.

These predecessors, in terms of their own strength, are probably on par with warriors who use High Level gene potions.

Without breaking through the limit of Martial Dao, they possess such strength. What would it be like to break through the limit of Martial Dao?" Han Xianyun sighed.

The lineage of Martial Dao has been getting weaker from ancient times to the present.

According to historical records, two thousand years ago, there were many Martial Artists on Gongxing, and even those who broke through the limit of Martial Dao were as common as crucian carp crossing the river.

But now, after a thousand years, besides Luo Bufan, there is no one who has broken through the limit of Martial Dao.

"Your foreign bloodlines are quite mixed, with chickens, ducks, geckos, birds, dung beetles..." Qi Yuan looked at the imprints left on it and casually commented.

"It seems that the ancestors of you foreigners were all Xu Xian." Qi Yuan said, looking at Han Xianyun seriously.

"It seems that you like impressive wives. It's not your own fault, it's a problem with your ancestral bloodline." Qi Yuan's eyes could see hidden information.

Through the Wu Yun engraving, he could see the bloodlines contained in the bodies of those who had left marks on this wooden engraving.

There were all kinds of small animals.

But when it came to this, Qi Yuan's expression changed slightly.

Because a boomerang had hit him.

In Ning Tao's past life, he was a canary on Jiupan Mountain.

If he married a canary and had children, wouldn't that mean... the people born would be somewhat similar to these foreigners?

Han Xianyun continued to look confused, keeping his head in a chaotic state.

Because he couldn't understand what Qi Yuan was saying.

"Mr. Qi, is what you said about bloodlines... true?"

"Well, you are the descendant of a rat, it's absolutely true," Qi Yuan answered truthfully.

"What? Evolution theory is false, Qin Erwen's coffin board can't hold up!" At this moment, Han Xianyun chose to believe Qi Yuan.

After all, Mr. Qi was an immortal.

Immortals have seen and experienced a lot, it's only natural.

"The historical records don't mention how you came here, so... it's possible that you are the descendant of a rat," Qi Yuan could casually make up stories.

Anyway, wild history can say whatever it wants.

Some people say that after Sima Zhao killed the emperor, why didn't he kill the court historian? That way, the court historian wouldn't record this event, and he wouldn't have to bear the infamy of killing the emperor.

Suddenly, someone said that in the wild history he read, Sima Zhao had a good relationship with Long Yang. When he saw the emperor on the street, he fell in love with him. When the emperor refused, Zhao killed him in anger.

"Am I really the descendant of a rat?" Han Xianyun pondered for a moment and decided not to ponder anymore.

Even if that's the case, does it mean he has to sleep in a burrow instead of a luxurious mansion?

Does it mean that when he's sick, he doesn't take medicine but rat poison?

"Which one of these is left by Luo Bufan?" Qi Yuan asked.

To be honest, Qi Yuan had already seen no less than ten imprints on this that surpassed the power of Martial Dao.

It can be seen that there were still people in ancient times who broke through the limit of Martial Dao, but they hid their identities and didn't flaunt it.

"It's this one." Han Xianyun pointed to a slender finger imprint.

"This guy... has six fingers?" Qi Yuan was surprised.

Han Xianyun was even more confused.

How could you tell that there are six fingers from just one finger imprint?

Qi Yuan looked at this finger imprint seriously, with a calm expression.

"It seems that the key to breaking through the limit of Martial Dao lies in bloodlines."

This one finger imprint gave Qi Yuan a lot of useful information.

This Luo Bufan is a ruthless person.

In order to break through the limit of Martial Dao... even...

But Qi Yuan, as a player in this game, is an orphan, and he can't do everything that Luo Bufan can.

So, the opportunity for his breakthrough lies in the sea, the mutated sea monster.
