Chapter 80 The prince is in trouble

Shi Rui's words were not flattery, but came from the heart.

In the past two days, apart from chatting with Zhao Qiuyun, she had spent the rest of her time practicing. However, in just two days, the effect of her practice could only be said to be minimal.

She is at the third level of Nascent Soul. Even if she is extremely talented, it will take at least two or three years to break through to another level with her current level of cultivation. If she encounters a bottleneck threshold, she will not be able to break through a small level in ten years. It's also normal.

But as for Zhao Mu, even if he is in the Dan Formation realm, breaking through a small realm in two days is really a bit unbelievable.

Moreover, Shi Rui knew a lot about Zhao Mu. He knew that not long ago he was a qi training disciple in the courtyard. In such a short period of time, he was able to build foundations and form pills. He must have relied on this kind of extraordinary ability. Cultivation speed that ordinary people can reach.

She has met many geniuses, and she was once hailed as a genius in cultivation. It was only after meeting Zhao Mu that she realized how outrageous the gap between people was.

"Senior sister, you are honored. I just got some opportunities. Unlike senior sister, I am already a strong Nascent Soul at a young age. In the future, the human race may have another female supreme." Zhao Mu said with a smile.

Shi Rui giggled when she was teased: "Junior brother, you have such a sweet mouth. You often use this trick to trick girls. Although I know you are flattering me, listening to your words still makes me happy."

She really wasn't lying.

Zhao Mu took a look at Shi Rui's favorability score and found that it had reached sixty, which was enough to be bound to the returned object.

However, Zhao Mu was not in a hurry to bind him. He didn't know Shi Rui very well yet. If someone wanted to belong to someone else, wouldn't it be very embarrassing after the binding.

You still have to get thoroughly familiar with it before making any plans.

At this stage, just get along with each other with a normal heart.

After walking out of the empty boat, Zhao Mu looked down at the land and saw a grand ancient city located on a plain. It was the capital of the Zhao Kingdom [Wuxuan City].

Although Zhao State is not a powerful country, its founding has a history of 20,000 years. Wuxuan City has a long history, even earlier than Zhao State and has a longer history.

Although Wuxuan City has been repaired and rebuilt many times, it has always maintained its original appearance, so that now it seems that the entire ancient city is full of rich historical heritage.

The State of Zhao has also experienced many wars in its history, and was once attacked by the enemy into the capital and at the foot of the imperial city, but it was always able to get out of the crisis.

Of course, this is not something worth mentioning.

Because the reason is actually relatively simple.

That is because Zhao State is too poor.

It's not that the poor can't afford to eat and there are refugees everywhere, but there are almost no resources for cultivation in the Zhao Kingdom.

There are no spiritual stone veins, no ancient secret realm ruins, and no land containing spiritual energy to grow elixirs.

In fact, the vast plain where Zhao State is located has perfectly staggered the underground spiritual veins, resulting in a concentration of spiritual energy that is far lower than that of several surrounding countries.

Therefore, Zhao State has no value of being occupied. Even after a battle, there is not much profit and water that can be obtained from Zhao State.

Over time, the Zhao State became a tasteless piece of food, unable to attract the interest of the powerful surrounding dynasties. Instead, the weak Zhao State became extremely long-lived.

But today, things seem to be different.

This time the Zhou Dynasty attacked Zhao State, not for money and resources, but for boys and girls.

And coincidentally, because of its long-term peace and abundant population, Zhao State became a favorite in the eyes of the Zhou Dynasty.

Although the war has not yet spread to Wuxuan City, Zhao Mu has seen many traces of enemy troops on the way here. Some small towns have fallen, and many fleeing victims can be seen outside the Zhao capital.

"Fortunately, we came in time." Zhao Mu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Wu Xuancheng was at least stable at the moment.

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

As for his family... To be honest, Zhao Mu doesn't care. After all, he is a time traveler and will definitely not have any sense of belonging to his current home.

Of course, Zhao Mu will definitely help wherever he can.

"Boss, we just found a group of cavalry heading towards the capital. Although there are not many in number, each of them is a foundation-building monk. A mortal army may not be able to resist their footsteps. Do we need to let us intercept them?"

The ghost clam suddenly flew over and reported.

A cavalry team composed entirely of foundation-building monks?

Zhao Mu was slightly surprised. The foundation-building monks were no threat to him, but to a mortal country, they were almost indestructible divine weapons. There was no way Zhao could stop them with their military power.

The royal family of the Zhao Kingdom did support a few practitioners, but they were only building foundations. Only the state master's cultivation reached the level of pill formation, but they were outsiders after all. If it really came to a critical moment, they might not dare to show up in person to fight against the big forces. Zhou Dynasty.

Zhao Mu asked Shi Rui on the side: "Senior Sister Shi, does your Zhou Dynasty have such a cavalry team composed of foundation-building monks?"

Shi Rui was also surprised and explained: "Although Dazhou's national power is slightly stronger, it is not as luxurious as using foundation-building monks as cavalry. However, I haven't been home for a long time and I don't know the specific situation."

Zhao Mu nodded and ordered the three of them: "Go over and watch to see what the purpose of this cavalry team is. Once they hurt someone, take action, but don't kill them all and leave a few alive." Interrogate and see if you can find out some key information."

"Follow your orders, boss." The three ghost clams nodded repeatedly and flew away with their swords.

Zhao Mu said: "Let's go directly to the city and go to Prince Beichen's Mansion."

Zhao Mu's father, Zhao Chen, is the current King of Beichen of Zhao State. He is also a member of the royal family, but he is a branch and not a direct line. The throne is hereditary. Zhao Mu is also a little prince.

Unfortunately, Zhao Mu did not enjoy the status of a free and easy little prince for long before he was captured by the demon cultivator of Shengyuan Demon Sect.

Speaking of which, the demon cultivator seemed to be called Wang Sheng, an outer disciple. Zhao Mu wanted to find him and teach him a lesson when he was free, but he has become famous in the Demon Sect recently. That guy must know about his affairs and may have been scared to run away.

The air boat soon appeared in the sky above Wuxuan City.

Such immortal magic weapons are rare in the secular world. They immediately attracted the attention of many people. Zhao Mu looked down and saw a face full of fear and panic.

I am afraid they thought they were envoys from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Beichen Palace.

The palace was in chaos, and even the servants packed up their things and prepared to run away.

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

"Father, please take your brothers and sisters away quickly. I'm old, and the Zhou 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 fell into Zhao Chen's ears. The Beichen King, who was also famous in the court, was full of worry and resentment at this time.

"Is God going to destroy my Zhao Kingdom!"

Suddenly, a servant rushed in from outside the door.

"Your Highness, it's not good. There are immortals coming on a flying boat and landed outside the palace. I'm afraid they are envoys sent by the Great Zhou!"
