Ten Thousand Times Return: My Senior Sister Plucked Me At The Start

Shi Rui's words were not flattery, but from the bottom of her heart.

In the past two days, apart from chatting with Zhao Qiuyun, she had been cultivating. However, in just two days, the effect of her cultivation could only be said to be minimal.

Her cultivation was at the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm. Even if her talent was outstanding, with her current cultivation, it would take at least two or three years to break through to the next level. If she encountered a bottleneck, it was normal that she could not break through a small realm in ten years.

But for Zhao Mu, even if he was at the Core Formation Realm, breaking through a small realm in two days was really a bit heaven-defying.

Moreover, Shi Rui knew a lot about Zhao Mu. She knew that he was a Qi Refining disciple in the Chores Yard not long ago. In such a short time, he had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm and then the Core Formation Realm. He must have relied on this kind of extraordinary cultivation speed.

She had seen many geniuses, and she was once praised as a cultivation genius. However, after seeing Zhao Mu, she understood how ridiculous the gap between people was.

"Senior Sister, you're flattering me. I'm just lucky. Unlike you, you're already a Nascent Soul cultivator at such a young age. In the future, the Human Clan may have another female Supreme," Zhao Mu said with a smile.

Shi Rui was amused and giggled. "Junior Brother, you have such a sweet mouth. You must have used this trick to coax girls. Although I know you are flattering me, listening to your words still makes me happy."

She was really not lying.

Zhao Mu looked at Shi Rui's favorability. It had reached 60, which was enough to bind and return to the target.

However, Zhao Mu was not in a hurry to bind. He still did not know Shi Rui well. If her heart belonged to someone else, wouldn't it be very awkward after binding?

He had to thoroughly familiarize himself with her before making plans.

At this stage, it was fine to get along with her normally.

Walking out of the airship, Zhao Mu looked down at the earth and saw a grand ancient city sitting on a plain. It was the capital of the Zhao Kingdom, Wuxuan City.

Although the Zhao Kingdom was not strong, it had a history of 20,000 years. Wuxuan City had a long history, even older than the Zhao Kingdom.

Although Wuxuan City had been repaired and rebuilt many times, it had always maintained its original appearance. Now, it seemed that the entire ancient city was full of rich history.

The Zhao Kingdom had experienced many wars in its history. Once, the enemy had killed their way into the capital, but they had always been able to extricate themselves from the crisis.

Of course, this was not something worth talking about.

Because the reason was actually quite simple.

That was because the State of Zhao was too poor.

It wasn't that they were so poor that they couldn't afford to eat or that there were refugees everywhere. It was just that there were almost no cultivation resources in the State of Zhao.

There were no spirit stone veins, no ancient ruins, and no land that contained spirit energy to grow spirit herbs.

In fact, the vast plain where the Zhao Country was located was not as dense as the surrounding countries because of the perfect dislocation of the underground Spirit Veins.

Therefore, the State of Zhao did not have any value in being occupied. Even after a war, they would not be able to gain much from the State of Zhao.

Over time, the Kingdom of Zhao became a tasteless chicken rib, unable to attract the interest of the surrounding powerful dynasties. Instead, the weak Kingdom of Zhao became extremely long-lived.

But today, the situation seemed to be different.

This time, the Great Zhou Dynasty did not attack the State of Zhao for money and resources, but for young boys and girls.

Coincidentally, because the Zhao Country was peaceful for a long time and had a large population, it became a hot spot in the eyes of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although the flames of war had yet to spread to Wu Xuan City, Zhao Mu had already seen many traces of the enemy's army on the way here. Some small cities had already fallen into the enemy's hands. Outside the capital of Zhao Country, many refugees could be seen.

"Fortunately, I came in time." Zhao Mu saw that Wuxuan City was at least stable and was relieved.

It seemed that his fiancée, the little princess, should still be safe.

As for his family … To be honest, Zhao Mu didn't care. After all, he was a transmigrator. He definitely didn't have any sense of belonging to his current home.

Of course, Zhao Mu would definitely help if it was within her power.

"Boss, we just found a group of cavalry heading towards the capital. Although there aren't many of them, they are all Foundation Establishment cultivators. The mortal army might not be able to stop them. Should we go and intercept them?"

Ghost Toad suddenly flew over and reported.

A cavalry team full of Foundation Establishment cultivators?

Zhao Mu was slightly surprised. Foundation Establishment cultivators were no threat to him, but to a mortal country, they could be said to be invincible. With Zhao's military power, there was no way to stop them.

The royal family of Zhao had supported a few cultivators, but they were only Foundation Establishment cultivators. Only the State Preceptor's cultivation had reached Core Formation. However, they were still outsiders. In a critical moment, they might not dare to appear in person to fight against the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Zhao Mu asked Shi Rui, "Senior Shi, does your Great Zhou Dynasty have a cavalry team made up of Foundation Establishment cultivators?"

Shi Rui was also surprised. She explained, "Although the Great Zhou Dynasty's national power is slightly stronger, it doesn't have the luxury of using Foundation Establishment cultivators as cavalry. However, I haven't been home for a long time, so I don't know the specific situation."

Zhao Mu nodded and ordered Ghost Toad and the others, "You guys go and keep an eye on them. See what this cavalry team is up to. Once they attack, you guys attack. But don't kill them all. Keep a few alive and interrogate them. See if you can find any key information."

"Yes, boss." Ghost Toad and the others nodded and flew away on their swords.

Zhao Mu said, "We'll go directly into the city and go to the Beichen Mansion."

Zhao Mu's father, Zhao Chen, was the current King Beichen of the State of Zhao. He was also considered part of the royal family. However, he was from a side branch and not the direct line of descent. The throne was hereditary. Speaking of which, Zhao Mu could be considered a young prince.

It was a pity that Zhao Mu didn't get to enjoy the status of a free and unfettered young prince for long before he was captured by the demon cultivators of the Saint Prime Devil Sect.

Speaking of which, that demon cultivator seemed to be called Wang Sheng, an outer sect disciple. Zhao Mu still wanted to find him and teach him a lesson when he was free to vent his anger. However, he had recently become famous in the Devil Sect. That guy must have known about him. Maybe he had already been scared and ran away.

The airship soon appeared in the sky above Wuxuan City.

Such an Immortal Magic Treasure was rare in the secular world, and it immediately attracted the attention of many people. Zhao Mu looked down, but what he saw were fearful and terrified faces.

He probably thought that they were envoys from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Beichen Prince Manor.

The manor was in chaos. Some servants even packed their things and prepared to run for their lives.

"Your Highness, we can't wait any longer. Prince Xuan from next door has already taken his family out of the city. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to."

"Father, please take my brothers and sisters and leave quickly. I'm old. The Great Zhou Dynasty's soldiers won't catch me. It's enough for me to stay and guard the house!"

The princess's persuasion and the eldest son's decision all fell into Zhao Chen's ears. The Beichen Prince, who was considered famous in the imperial court, was now full of worry and resentment.

"Does the heavens want to destroy my State of Zhao?!"

Suddenly, a servant rushed in from outside the door in a panic.

"Your Highness, it's not good. An Immortal came in a flying ship and landed outside the manor. I'm afraid it's an envoy from the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
