Mansion Rooms!

Qin Yan gazed at the Thousand-Year Blood Ginseng before him, which exuded the fragrance of herbs and trees!

"As expected of a thousand-year-old treasure, just one whiff of its fragrance makes one feel completely comfortable."

Qin Yan was filled with admiration.

I wonder how much benefit these foods will provide?

With this thought in mind!

Qin Yan immediately swallowed it, and in an instant, an extremely pure medicinal power entered his body.

Every cell in the body seemed to be drawn in, frantically absorbing this pure energy.

Within his body, it was as if rivers were surging, and his vital energy was as intense as the blazing sun. If any demons or evil spirits were to approach at this moment, they would likely be burned to nothingness.

[Refining the Thousand-Year Blood Ginseng increases maximum Strength by 300]

[Refining the Thousand-Mile Blood Ginseng increases the maximum Spirit by 200]

[Qin Yan]

[Talent: Infinite Physique]

Strength: 1587

Speed: 353

Spirit: 1396

"The blood and qi within my body surged continuously; this thousand-year-old treasure truly lives up to its reputation."

It saved me a lot of time.

Qin Yan was overjoyed.

His strength is 1500 times that of an ordinary person; his pure physical strength alone is enough to rival most Grandmasters!

Not bad, not bad.

From now on, there will be fewer people who can threaten me.

At the same time, the Prince Jing's Estate received an imperial edict from the Emperor of Great Li!

"My father wants me to send Cheng'er to the Capital, ostensibly to visit him, but in reality, as a hostage!"

Prince Jing's face was gloomy, and his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

"This matter was probably instigated secretly by my brother, the Crown Prince!"

Among the many princes and nobles, the Crown Prince and Prince Jing are the most powerful.

When the crown prince was first chosen, he was too young to compete.

However, as time went by, the crown prince grew old, while Prince Jing was in his prime.

Moreover, thanks to his painstaking efforts in development, Tianlan Prefecture became a renowned and prosperous place throughout the Dali Dynasty.

It was also all for the sake of that throne.

However, as his own strength grew, the Crown Prince became increasingly wary of his younger brother.

"It is inevitable that the heir will come to the capital. More importantly, the prince only has this one son. If something goes wrong..."

This will likely have a significant impact on us.

Cong Wenxiu frowned. "Your Highness's journey to the Capital will likely be fraught with difficulties!"

Royal power struggles are always bloody; on the surface, things may appear peaceful and harmonious, but underneath, they are already locked in fierce battles.

"Cheng'er's safety is of paramount importance; we must plan carefully!"

Prince Jing said in a deep voice, "I only have this one son now, and I absolutely cannot allow any mistakes to happen."

"Your Highness, please rest assured. Wenxiu will arrange these matters properly."

Cong Wenxiu said, "Perhaps we can bring Qin Yan in. He is known as Unmatched Speed, and even cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm are powerless against him."

Moreover, his perception is extremely strong, and he can sense the probing of the soul.

His role was no less significant than that of a Grandmaster!

Prince Jing's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "Tie this man to their warship."

They're forcing Qin Yan to take sides!

The Crown Prince certainly wouldn't let such a genius grow up!

With a little maneuvering, this isn't difficult.

"Wenxiu, that's a great idea!"

Prince Jing couldn't help but laugh.

"Escort Prince Jing to the capital!"

Qin Yan stared at the document in his hand, his head filled with questions.

Does the Demon-Suppressing Bureau even offer this kind of service?

Shouldn't this matter be handled by the Imperial City Bureau?

Qin Yan rubbed his chin and quickly realized that someone was trying to scheme against him.

As for who it is, there's no need to ask.

"Things are definitely not so easy to get."

Qin Yan couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little annoyed.

But isn't this also an opportunity?

Keep in mind that he is Demon-Suppressing Bureau Patrol Envoy, and his reputation as a genius has already caught the attention of the bigwigs in the Demon-Suppressing Bureau!

He's already on the waiting list!

Prince Jing wanted to force him to choose sides!

The bigwigs of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau certainly won't sit idly by; if all else fails, they can ask Red Star Daoist.

The other party certainly won't stand idly by.

It's been almost a year since I transmigrated to this world, so it's only natural that I should go and take a look at Capital.

There might be many opportunities there.

Normally, the Demon Suppression Inspector is not allowed to leave his jurisdiction, but this time he was given a legitimate opportunity.

Capital is the headquarters of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau, and I've accumulated quite a few merits there. It's a good time to see if I can exchange them for some good items.

"Brother Qin, you must get along well with the Crown Prince on your trip to the Capital."

This child is a bit more mischievous than the other children.

Zuo Qifeng glanced at Qin Yan and subtly reminded him, "The Prince Jing, he grew up surrounded by love and affection."

"Turns out he's a brat."

Qin Yan understood and immediately nodded. "You can trust me to handle things!"

Zuo Qifeng leaned over and whispered, "Prince Jing asked me to pass on some words to you."

I hope you can be on good terms with the Crown Prince; your speed is probably beyond the reach of many things.

Furthermore, if the crown prince becomes too unruly, one can discipline him.

"Um!"

Qin Yan's eyes lit up. This is great!

Seeing Qin Yan's expression, Zuo Qifeng knew without even guessing what the other was thinking.

A sudden chill ran down my spine.

"Brother Qin, although His Highness Prince Jing has given you the power to discipline the Crown Prince, you should avoid taking action if possible."

"After all, they are of royal blood; something terrible could happen."

Don't worry!

Qin Yan chuckled.

Seeing Qin Yan's expression, Zuo Qifeng felt increasingly unreliable.

"This guy might actually dare to make a move."

He muttered to himself!

"I hope Your Highness will refrain from provoking this scoundrel."

When Qin Yan arrived at Prince Jing's Estate again.

He saw the only son of Prince Jing, who was only about a year younger than him!

He was surrounded by a group of guards.

These people are quite strong; there are four Innate Martial Artists in total.

The two men, clad in armor, were the commanders of Prince Jing's personal guard!

Besides these four people, an elderly man stood out conspicuously in the crowd.

He was burly, carrying a giant sword on his back, and his eyes were especially sharp!

At this moment, the other party felt Qin Yan's gaze, and a smile appeared on his dignified face as he nodded at Qin Yan.

In the center of the crowd, a mother and child embraced and wept.

Prince Jing's attire was not ostentatious or flamboyant; her temperament was gentle and beautiful, and her eyes were filled with reluctance towards her son.

"Cheng'er, the Capital is not Tianlan Prefecture. Don't be as arrogant as before."

Study hard and be filial to your imperial grandfather.

Prince Jing wiped away her tears. At that moment, she also noticed Qin Yan and knew that he was someone the prince valued highly.

"Envoy Qin, I'm grateful for your care of Cheng'er throughout the journey."

"Your Highness, please rest assured. I will certainly protect His Highness's safety."

Qin Yan nodded and clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"You are Qin Yan, whom my father mentioned. My father told me to listen to you carefully throughout the journey."

The prince looked at Qin Yan with curiosity, then immediately clasped his hands in a salute, though his eyes were full of cunning.
