Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune: Starting from the Blind Prince

Hèlián Hǎi's roar echoed through the Prince's mansion.

It was like the roar of a furious beast; just hearing the tone of his voice, one could feel the rage filling Hèlián Hǎi's chest.

Mister Cāng Sōng's expression changed slightly, knowing that his attempt to poach someone had been exposed.

But…

Everything this old man has done comes from a place of pure intention, to help His Highness walk the right path.

Following the remnants of the Five Thunder Sect is undoubtedly a wrong turn.

"Hèlián Hǎi, you old fool, stop your blathering!"

"Everything this old man does is for the sake of the common people of the world."

"With His Highness's talent for poetry, if he could enter my Confucian school, he would be a seed of a sage. In the future, opening up a new path to Confucian sainthood would be a benevolent act that would benefit the world."

Mister Cāng Sōng spoke with righteous indignation, a look that made the corners of Hèlián Hǎi's mouth twitch madly.

"I spit on that!"

"You scholars, you open your mouths and talk about the great righteousness of the world, your mouths are full of talk of the common people, but your hearts are full of male prostitutes and female thieves."

"This old man hates you hypocrites the most."

"Looking for a beating!"

Mister Cāng Sōng's expression changed slightly, and he snorted coldly.

"Old ghost Hè, if you want to fight, go fight in the sky, lest innocent people be harmed!"

"Let's go then!"

The two of them stepped into the air and went straight into the clouds.

Old and new grudges piled together, and Hèlián Hǎi went all out as soon as he made a move.

Five-colored lightning burst out of his body, as if possessing the power to destroy the world.

Above the sky, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and pure energy surged.

It was as if the wind and clouds had suddenly changed, changing in countless ways.

Confucian divine powers and Five Elements Thunder techniques collided fiercely in the sky.

The battle between the two top Upper Three Realms experts quickly attracted the attention of other experts in the capital.

"Huh? Isn't that Mister Cāng Sōng? Mister Cāng Sōng has come to the capital? Why haven't I heard about this?"

"An Eleventh Realm Thunder cultivator, who is this person? A remnant of the Five Thunder Sect?"

"That Thunder cultivator seems to be the old blind man beside Thirteenth Brother… Hiss, is this old blind man so strong?"

"Mister Cāng Sōng is actually at a disadvantage; if it weren't for relying on the Confucian Sage literary treasure, I'm afraid he would have been defeated!"

"As expected of a Thunder cultivator, his combat power is unparalleled!"

"Hmph—our Confucianism focuses on teaching and transforming all living beings, what's the point of arguing with a bunch of Thunder barbarians? I laugh at Cāng Sōng's imprudence!"

…

Hèlián Hǎi and Mister Cāng Sōng stopped fighting after a quarter of an hour.

"Guān Hǎi, follow me back to the academy."

Mister Cāng Sōng's words entered the ears of the Poetry Prince, but he didn't know if it was an illusion, but the Poetry Prince felt that the Dean's tone seemed a little exasperated.

"Your Highness, the Dean has ordered, I will take my leave first."

"In the future, there will definitely be opportunities to discuss poetry with Your Highness."

Even at this time, the Poetry Prince did not forget to discuss poetry; he was truly a poetry fanatic.

"Poetry Prince, walk slowly; in the future, there will definitely be opportunities…"

Zhōu Hào Chén said politely, adding the words "that's unlikely" in his heart.

When the Poetry Prince heard Zhōu Hào Chén say that there would be opportunities in the future, his face lit up with joy, as if he had completely forgotten about the change of ownership.

As soon as the Poetry Prince left, Hèlián Hǎi returned from the sky, holding his head high and chest out, looking like he had won the battle.

"Hmph—"

"A mere Cāng Sōng, how dare he fight with me!"

"Your Highness, you must not listen to the flowery words of this old fool Cāng Sōng."

"These Confucian people, they speak so nicely, but when it comes to a real fight, how can they be a match for us Thunder cultivators?"

"Your Highness, you must not waste your talent in Thunder techniques!"

Seeing Hèlián Hǎi's proud appearance, Zhōu Hào Chén chuckled.

"Old Hè, rest assured!"

"I know what I'm doing!"

However, Zhōu Hào Chén's words did not dispel Hèlián Hǎi's worries.

His Highness is like an awl in a bag; sooner or later, he will reveal his sharp edge.

He has already begun to show his talent, attracting this old fool Cāng Sōng.

No, he must speed up teaching His Highness Thunder techniques, so that others cannot take advantage of the situation.

A quarter of an hour later.

Yuè Chóngshān withdrew his team from the Eastern Coming Inn and returned to the Prince's mansion, his expression as lost as a defeated general.

As expected, it was as Zhōu Hào Chén had expected.

The White Lotus Sect is a wily rabbit with three burrows and has already moved.

However, Zhōu Hào Chén was not disappointed, nor was he discouraged.

Because he already had more breakthroughs.

The traitor who colluded with the White Lotus Sect was Xuānyuán Xuè.

Xuānyuán Xuè was related to the death of Lí Yuè and Chún Yuè's parents; this was the biggest breakthrough.

In addition to this, Zhōng Yúnhǔ's memories gave Zhōu Hào Chén a better understanding of the White Lotus Sect.

Zhōng Yúnhǔ was the Vice Hall Master of the White Lotus Sect in Yùjīng City, and could be considered a quasi-high-level figure.

The White Lotus Sect in Yùjīng City had a total of four Hall Masters, corresponding to the four districts of east, south, west, and north.

Above the four Hall Masters was the highest person in charge of the White Lotus Sect's Yùjīng City branch—Elder Chǔ, a strong person in the Upper Three Realms.

As for Xià Yúzhī, Zhōng Yúnhǔ's memories did not contain any information about her.

This made Zhōu Hào Chén even more curious about Xià Yúzhī's identity in the White Lotus Sect.

Xià Yúzhī's status might be higher than he had expected.

In addition to this information about the White Lotus Sect, Zhōu Hào Chén also discovered a lot of information about the remnants of the Zhào Prince.

Although the remnants of the Zhào Prince had joined the White Lotus Sect and seemed to be colluding with each other, in reality, they were wary of each other.

Just from Zhōng Yúnhǔ's memories, there were no less than five scenes of the two sides arguing.

Especially regarding this Earth Mother Sacrifice, the White Lotus Sect was very dissatisfied.

Because the White Lotus Sect had put in a lot of effort, but had not gained anything; all the benefits had been pocketed by the remnants of the Zhào Prince.

As for what Tài Shūqīng said, that the Tree Heart had been missing for a long time.

In Zhōu Hào Chén's opinion, this statement was still questionable.

It was impossible to determine whether this was the truth or if he was trying to fool the White Lotus Sect.

After all, the Reincarnation Seal mark involved an immortal artifact.

It was only natural to have selfish motives and be wary.

If he were to hand it over willingly, it would instead make people suspect Tài Shūqīng's motives.

"Aunt Lán, send a greeting card to the Second Prince's mansion."

"Tonight, I will pay a visit to Second Brother."

"Understood, Your Highness."

"Lí Yuè, Chún Yuè, do you still remember the Black Tortoise Army Commandant who investigated your family's extermination case back then? Do you still remember him?"

"I remember!"

Lí Yuè and Chún Yuè both nodded in unison.

As expected of twins, even the amplitude and posture of their nodding were exactly the same.

"Very good!"

"Tonight, accompany me to visit the Second Prince. The Second Prince has close ties with the Black Tortoise Army. Ask the Second Prince to help connect us and find the Black Tortoise Army Commandant who investigated your family's extermination case back then."

When Lí Yuè and Chún Yuè heard this, the expressions of joy on their innocent faces were extremely strong, as if the clear spring in the mountains was about to gush out.

"Your Highness, really?"

"Wuwu—Your Highness, you are too kind!"

"You are Lí Yuè's (Chún Yuè's) benefactor for life."

The two little girls were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears, and their eyes were filled with mist. They wished they could show their gratitude to Zhōu Hào Chén right now.

"Don't get too excited yet; your family's extermination case may not be so easy to investigate."

Zhōu Hào Chén gave the twin sisters a shot of preventive medicine.

The extermination case of Lí Yuè and Chún Yuè's family was indeed full of strangeness.

According to the usual practice in the army, if something happened to a Commandant in the army, the army would first conduct an internal investigation. If the internal investigation was not clear, then the Town Demon Division and the Ministry of Justice would be invited.

The strangeness of the extermination case lies in the fact that the case was neither thoroughly investigated nor transferred to the Ministry of Justice or the Town Demon Division.

Obviously, there was an invisible giant hand suppressing the extermination case.
