After an entire morning, Dai Weisi had ground all the materials into powder and made black powder.
Just then, two beautiful Maids dressed in brightly colored clothes suddenly arrived in the courtyard. They bowed respectfully, their smiles blooming like flowers.
"First Prince, your meal is ready."
"Alright, I understand." Dai Weisi nodded in response, then headed to the room for lunch accompanied by the two Maids.
He took in the admiration in the Maids' eyes. He was the First Prince of the Star Luo Empire, so it was only natural for Maids to admire him.
There were fifteen Maids in the residence, and nearly all of them wanted to climb into his bed. Even if they could not become Imperial Concubines, merely becoming his lovers would be a meteoric rise for them.
Dai Weisi remembered a saying from his previous life: a gambling father, a sick mother, a younger brother in school, and a broken her.
Unfortunately, neither he nor the original owner of this body had ever favored any of these Maids.
It was not that they were not lustful. The original owner was the elder brother of Dai Mubai, the "Evil Eyed White Tiger." Saying he was not lustful would have been impossible; he had merely been watched closely by his fiancée.
Whenever Zhu Zhuyun saw him getting close to a Maid, she would throw a tantrum and sulk.
She would even deliberately trip him up while they practiced their Martial Soul Fusion Skill. In the end, Dai Weisi could only surrender and beg for mercy, keeping a safe distance from every Maid.
Hadn't Dai Mubai become much more obedient after Zhu Zhuqing arrived in the original story?
Perhaps the original owner would have resented Zhu Zhuyun, but he no longer would. After all, she was merely a sixteen-year-old girl. What adult would lose their temper with a little girl?
Dai Weisi's lunch was lavish. Besides rice and bread, there was a large amount of soul beast meat. He was originally a Beast Soul Master, and his Martial Soul was the Evil Eyed White Tiger. Eating soul beast meat over a long period was greatly beneficial to his cultivation.
His favorite among them was Spicy Soft Bone Rabbit, commonly known as Spicy Xiao Wu. Bunnies were so adorable, so of course they needed extra cumin and chili peppers.
After eating lunch alone, Dai Weisi began Meditation Cultivation in his room. He had to work hard in secret, then grind everyone else into the dust!
Even with black powder, he might be able to develop weapons capable of threatening Titled Douluo. But in this world where strength reigned supreme, one's own power would always come first.
Without becoming a god, one would ultimately remain an ant!
Without any strength, who would think highly of you?
Dai Weisi immediately sat cross-legged and cultivated the family's Meditation Technique, his Soul Power slowly increasing.
Just then, a graceful black figure suddenly appeared at the door and gently knocked. A melodious voice drifted in from outside.
"Weisi, are you in there? I'm coming in!"
With that, a young girl pushed open the door and walked in without ceremony. She had exquisite features, skin as white as snow, and a pair of playful Big Eyes that blinked.
Her soft, short hair carried a faint fragrance, mixed with the scent of her body as it wafted toward him.
She wore a sexy black leather outfit. Though only sixteen, the two deadly weapons on her chest were already towering and captivating.
Dai Weisi slowly opened his eyes and smiled at the young girl before him. "Zhuyun, why are you here?"
The newcomer was none other than his fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing's biological older sister: Zhu Zhuyun.
At that, Zhu Zhuyun puffed out her cheeks as though angered. "What do you mean, why am I here? What, am I not welcome?"
"No, no. You're my wife, and the mistress of this home. Of course you can come and go whenever you want."
Zhu Zhuyun's little face instantly flushed crimson, as though blood might seep from it, and shame flooded her heart.
She immediately pointed at Dai Weisi and said coquettishly, "Y-you-you, don't talk nonsense! Who's your wife? We're only engaged. It's not time to talk about marriage yet, hmph!"
Zhu Zhuyun gave an indignant snort, then looked at Dai Weisi again. "By the way, Weisi, I heard from the Emperor that you've locked yourself at home every day this past week. What exactly have you been doing?"
The Emperor she referred to was naturally Dai Weisi's father. Since she was already his fiancée, Zhu Zhuyun naturally had to address him as the Emperor.
"What else could I be doing? Of course, I've been cultivating diligently." Dai Weisi spun around and smiled. "Zhuyun, haven't you noticed that I'm different from before?"
Zhu Zhuyun stared at him for a long while. Then her eyes lit up as she exclaimed, "Weisi, y-you've already broken through to Level 39?"
"That's right! I estimate that in another two or three months—at any rate, before my nineteenth birthday—I'll definitely break through to Level 40 and become a Soul Ancestor!"
For the time being, Dai Weisi did not intend to tell Zhu Zhuyun about the gunpowder. The Firearms had yet to be developed. If he gave her the black powder and she accidentally injured herself, he would be heartbroken.
"Hehe, Weisi Gege, well done!" Zhu Zhuyun laughed excitedly. Not only did she affectionately call him "Weisi Gege," she even kissed Dai Weisi on the cheek!
Then she excitedly wrapped her arms around his neck and giggled foolishly. "Weisi Gege, I never expected that in just over two months, you'd already break through to Level 39. If you can keep this up, those two little fools won't be our match at all!"
Dai Weisi naturally knew that the "two little fools" Zhu Zhuyun mentioned were Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. Clearly, she did not take either of them seriously.
That was normal. They were now both Three Ring Soul Elders, so naturally they would not regard a One Ring Spirit Master and a Two Ring Great Spirit Master as threats.
"Even so, we can't let our guard down. We still need to cultivate diligently! No one can predict the future. All we can do is do our best and leave the rest to fate."
Then Dai Weisi suddenly asked, "By the way, Zhuyun, you know that my foolish little brother has already left the Star Luo Empire, right? What do you think?"
"Hmph, what else could I think? I say it's better that coward left, or better yet, that he dies in the Star Dou Great Forest!" Zhu Zhuyun said viciously, like a shrew.
"I always opposed his engagement to Zhuqing. Zhuqing and I used to get along quite well, but the Emperor and Empress insisted on putting the two of them together. Now look what happened—we sisters have no choice but to kill each other!"
Dai Weisi nodded gently. According to the original owner's memories, the sisters had indeed been quite close before Zhu Zhuqing's engagement.
Whenever he had gone to the Zhu Family to see Zhu Zhuyun in the past, the little girl would warmly call him brother. Now, however, she barely acknowledged him, looking at the two of them as though they were enemies.
"Zhuqing must already know about this too, right? How is she? She wasn't too upset, was she?"
"I don't know." Zhu Zhuyun gently shook her head. "After hearing the news, she didn't say anything and locked herself in her room. She must be sad."
"That makes sense. After all, she was abandoned by her future Husband."
Abandoning his wife and running off alone to Heaven Dou to live freely and happily—honestly, even he, as Dai Mubai's older brother, could not stand it.
