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

“Your Highness, be careful!”

A cry of alarm escaped from Mu Yuanye's cherry-red lips.

She tiptoed and quickly moved closer to Zhou Haochen, her pretty face filled with anxiety.

If something were to happen to the Thirteenth Prince down in the mine, the entire Ministry of Works would suffer.

After a series of earth-shattering tremors, an even greater shaking suddenly descended.

It was like a flash flood!

Like a thunderclap!

The force was so great, the power so terrifying, that it could collapse mountains and reverse rivers.

In that instant, the entire mine shook violently, giving Zhou Haochen the feeling that it could collapse at any moment.

If the divination hadn't indicated that he would be safe, Zhou Haochen wouldn't have been able to remain so calm.

“Your Highness, I'm sorry… I…”

Mu Yuanye's pretty face flushed red with anxiety.

This kind of nervous expression, coupled with her youthful face, was extremely endearing.

Zhou Haochen's mouth twitched slightly.

This is taking care of me?

Ji Kongzhao really has ulterior motives!

“Be careful!”

“Mm!”

The sound from the girl's nose was as soft as a mosquito's hum.

Thirteenth Prince, so gentle.

It's a pity that such a good person is blind.

Master is researching the mechanical eye and seems to be about to succeed.

Next time, I'll take Thirteenth Prince to see Master and have Master give him a new pair of eyes.

The earthquake came quickly and went quickly.

The shaking lasted for about five breaths before stopping abruptly.

“Your Highness, are you injured?” Ji Kongzhao asked anxiously.

“Rest assured, Lord Ji, I am perfectly fine!”

Hearing this, Ji Kongzhao breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a minor official from the Ministry of Works came to report.

“Lord Ji, there seems to be a hidden armory here.”

“There's still a hidden armory that hasn't been discovered?” Ji Kongzhao was stunned and exclaimed in surprise.

Back then, in order to clear out the rebel army in the Diyuan Mine, every inch of the mine had been rigorously searched.

In addition, the Ministry of Works had been managing and excavating the Diyuan Mine for many years, and they had a thorough understanding of the mine's interior.

There was still a hidden armory that hadn't been discovered.

“Your Highness, let's go take a look at the hidden armory.”

“Perhaps there will be some gains.”

The hidden armory of the previous dynasty, revealed by the earthquake, was very close to Zhou Haochen and his party, only about ten zhang away.

The entire hidden armory was hidden five zhang deep inside the mine, which was why it had evaded the search and remained hidden for a thousand years.

After a thousand years, the remnants of the previous dynasty in the hidden armory had long since died, and even their corpses had turned into piles of bones.

The moment they entered the hidden armory, the Bagua Diagram reacted, and golden light bloomed, revealing a line of text.

【Former Dynasty Tiger Tally: Half of a tiger tally belonging to the Great General of the Former Dynasty, containing the remaining Dragon Qi of the Former Dynasty, which can be used for the cultivation of the Ancient Emperor Dragon Transformation Scripture.】

Dragon Qi!

Zhou Haochen's eyes narrowed.

It's really a case of searching high and low to no avail, only to find it effortlessly!

Dragon Qi is like a cheat for the Ancient Emperor Dragon Transformation Scripture.

Not only can the Dragon Qi of the current dynasty be used, but also the Dragon Qi of the previous dynasty.

“Lord Ji, is there anything to be gained in the hidden armory?”

“Reporting to Your Highness, half of a tiger tally has been discovered, which should be the half belonging to the last Great General of the previous dynasty.”

“Why is the tiger tally here?”

“In my opinion, the last Great General of the previous dynasty, knowing that he was powerless to turn the tide, arranged for elites to hide in this hidden armory, hoping that they could escape the search and send the tiger tally out.”

“It's a pity that these soldiers in the hidden armory didn't get the chance to escape until they died.”

Ji Kongzhao recalled the battle back then.

The Diyuan Mine was sealed off for several years, and these elites of the previous dynasty starved to death in the hidden armory.

“Although the tiger tally is not a treasure, it is made of precious ore. If a master refiner is invited to re-smelt it, many precious minerals can be extracted.”

“Let me take a look.”

Although curious about Zhou Haochen's actions, Ji Kongzhao still handed the tiger tally to Zhou Haochen, watching him touch the broken end of the tiger tally with his fingertips.

After touching it for a while, Zhou Haochen nodded slightly and hid the tiger tally in his belt.

“This thing is not bad!”

Seeing Zhou Haochen pocket the tiger tally, Ji Kongzhao didn't stop him.

It was just a tiger tally from the previous dynasty anyway.

The Thirteenth Prince can have it if he wants it.

Seeing that Ji Kongzhao didn't say anything, Zhou Haochen immediately understood that Ji Kongzhao hadn't discovered the Dragon Qi contained within the tiger tally.

The Dragon Qi of the previous dynasty in the tiger tally was hidden extremely deep, and Zhou Haochen would have missed this opportunity if he hadn't had the Bagua Diagram to remind him.

“Lord Ji, now that the Diyuan Stone has been counted, let's leave as soon as possible.”

“Understood, Your Highness!”

Soon, the group left the mine.

Just as they returned to the ground, a minor official who had gone to the western mine rushed over, his expression flustered with excitement and agitation.

“Lord Ji! Lord Ji!”

“Calm down!”

“What happened?”

Ji Kongzhao shouted sternly, his brow furrowed slightly.

“Reporting to the Lord, Fang Dongyun… he obtained the inheritance of the previous dynasty…”

Soon, Zhou Haochen learned the cause and effect.

The Ministry of Works personnel who went to the western mine accidentally discovered the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

The Dragon Sparrow Sword was the sword of the last Great General of the previous dynasty.

The earthquake just now was caused by the birth of the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

The Dragon Sparrow Sword was born and recognized Fang Dongyun as its master, and Fang Dongyun also obtained the inheritance of the Great General of the previous dynasty.

“Fang Dongyun?”

“I remember that the seventh son of Marquis Linjiang is also called Fang Dongyun!”

Zhou Haochen blurted out after hearing the name Fang Dongyun.

“Your Highness has a good memory, this person is indeed Fang Dongyun, the seventh son of Marquis Linjiang.” Ji Kongzhao replied.

“Although Fang Dongyun was born of a concubine, he is still the son of a marquis, so why would he be a minor official in the Ministry of Works? Didn't Marquis Linjiang arrange a good place for him?” Zhou Haochen frowned, finding the matter quite strange.

Ji Kongzhao coughed and cleared his throat.

“Your Highness, Fang Dongyun is not favored by Marquis Linjiang and is suppressed by the Marchioness in the Marquis's mansion.”

“Even the position of minor official in the Ministry of Works was obtained by Fang Dongyun through his own abilities in the examination.”

“The Marchioness has also repeatedly hinted to this official to drive Fang Dongyun out of the Ministry of Works.”

“Lord Ji didn't agree?”

“Hmph—a mere woman dares to interfere in the affairs of the Ministry of Works? If it weren't for the sake of Marquis Linjiang, this official would definitely impeach her!”

Ji Kongzhao flicked his sleeves, his face quite displeased, obviously very dissatisfied with this Marchioness Linjiang.

“What is Fang Dongyun's current situation?”

“Reporting to the Lord, Fang Dongyun is currently refining the Dragon Sparrow Sword and accepting the inheritance, it should still take some time…”

Before the minor official could finish speaking.

A powerful, domineering, and extremely sharp aura suddenly erupted from the western mine.

Instantly, the wind and clouds surged, and the colors of the sky and earth changed.

A huge long sword phantom, reaching the sky and touching the earth, seemed to pierce through the clouds.

The vastness of this aura was such that not only could it be seen clearly from the eastern mine, but even the people in Yujing City could see it clearly.

“Lord Ji, what was the cultivation level of the last Great General of the previous dynasty?”

“According to records, it should be the eleventh realm of martial arts, the Celestial Phenomenon!”

Zhou Haochen's heart suddenly understood.

The third-grade opportunity in the Fire Wind Cauldron hexagram referred to the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

The inheritance of a martial arts eleventh realm expert.

Its preciousness can be seen.

Fang Dongyun obtained the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword, and his momentum of soaring is unstoppable.

This hidden dragon will surely attract the recruitment of the Crown Prince and the Second Prince and others, and be drawn into the vortex of the struggle for the throne.

Zhou Haochen didn't feel regret for missing the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

Although the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword is good, it is still not as good as the Ancient Emperor Dragon Transformation Scripture, and it will put himself in the limelight, which is not worth the loss.
