Dai Yichen did not hide anything in response to Zhu Zhuyun's question. There was no need to.
Then Dai Yichen stepped back, and the White Tiger Psychic Lock appeared in his hand.
"Arm!"
The next moment, under Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing's astonished gazes, a layer of white White Tiger Armor covered Dai Yichen's body.
As soon as Dai Yichen finished arming himself, he struck a pose, mainly because he wanted to look cool!
He had wanted to try this for a long time!
Hehe.
Zhu Zhuyun could clearly sense that this armor was anything but ordinary. The moment Dai Yichen finished "arming," a powerful aura erupted from him!
Zhu Zhuyun wondered whether her own attacks could break through Dai Yichen's armor.
"Wow, Brother Yichen, your Martial Soul is so cool! Its original form is clearly a gemstone-type Martial Soul, yet it can actually turn directly into a suit of armor." Zhu Zhuqing's eyes lit up as she stepped forward and patted it. It felt slightly cool to the touch.
Zhu Zhuyun asked, "Yichen, does this armor give you corresponding enhancements?"
Dai Yichen said, "Sister Zhuyun, take a guess~"
Zhu Zhuyun:
After dismissing his armor, Dai Yichen smiled. "Sister Zhuyun, I've awakened my Martial Soul now too. The two of us... can be considered rivals now. To be honest, I really don't want to be your enemy."
Zhu Zhuyun's expression darkened. She glanced at her younger sister and remained silent.
She was seven years older than Zhuqing and was already twelve this year.
According to the rules, she and Dai Weisi were already considered adults and were the foremost contenders for the throne.
And three years from now, her second younger sister would also turn twelve. At that time, the two sides would have to fight each other.
The fate of the loser was obvious!
After chatting with the two for a while, Dai Yichen left the Zhu Family. Bored along the way, he continued writing his diary. He had not written much in it today.
Would writing more earn him better rewards?
I just went to the Zhu Family to see Zhuqing and Sister Zhuyun. Both of them seemed pretty surprised that I awakened with Innate Full Soul Power. Seeing Zhuqing's disappointment when she learned that my Martial Soul wasn't the White Tiger Martial Soul made me want to laugh. I seriously couldn't hold it in, hahahaha.
Zhu Zhuqing: Brother Yichen, you're bullying me.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at her sister, who wore a smile on her face beside her, and could not help but blush furiously.
Fortunately, my talent is pretty good, and I also have the bargaining chip of successfully testing Whale Rubber. That was why my cheap father agreed not to betroth Zhuqing to my Third Brother.
The women: Whale Rubber?
The Zhu sisters: Isn't that something nobles use as an aphrodisiac? Their family seemed to have some low-grade ones.
Bibi Dong: Does this have another effect that I don't know about?
Bibi Dong had originally wanted to send someone to obtain some Whale Rubber to take a look, but when she thought of her current situation, she could only put it aside for now.
She believed Dai Yichen must have uncovered another important effect of Whale Rubber, one that greatly helped increase the Star Luo Imperial Family's strength. Otherwise, why would the Star Luo Emperor break the ancestral rules for the sake of a Fourth Prince?
Even if he agreed, some of the imperial clan members, nobles, and ministers would not agree!
Dai Yichen had no idea that because of him, Whale Rubber, a usually inconspicuous "medicinal ingredient," had been brought directly into everyone's sight.
Although I might not be a good person myself, compared to Dai Mubai, I think I'm still better than him, right?
In the original novel, Dai Mubai left Zhuqing behind and went alone to the Heaven Dou Empire when he was twelve. I can actually understand that. After all, Eldest Brother Dai Weisi had cultivated for many years longer than him. Even his Second Brother died while competing with Dai Weisi.
The original novel?
The female protagonists who possessed Diary Copies all caught that keyword! (All women who possessed Diary Copies were collectively called female protagonists.)
Though many quick-witted female protagonists did not know what a novel was, their intuition told them that perhaps they were living in a false world?
And Dai Yichen's past life had come from that world.
At this moment, the female protagonists, who had originally been watching for gossip, could no longer remain calm. Yet they still suppressed their anxious hearts and continued reading.
There was not much description of the Star Luo Empire's Second Prince in the original novel. It only said that the First Prince was Dai Weisi and the Third Prince was Dai Mubai. During the Soul Master Competition, the two decided the victor, who would become the next heir to the throne! From this, it was easy to infer that the Star Luo Second Prince had most likely already failed in his competition against Dai Weisi after coming of age!
But that didn't matter. After all, I'm not that familiar with the Zhu Family's second daughter, and my current strength isn't enough either. It would already be pretty good if I could take care of myself and Zhuqing, who will awaken her Martial Soul in a year.
Right now, my dear Eldest Brother is already a Soul Elder, while Sister Zhuyun should also be a high-level Soul Grandmaster. What could Dai Mubai use to fight them in the original novel? If he hadn't encountered Tang San, the protagonist, and received the help of his immortal herbs, he would have barely managed to defeat the Hell White Tiger unleashed by Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun!
At the very end, Dai Mubai and Zhuqing's Hell White Tiger changed and grew wings, raising the Martial Soul Fusion Skill's power to another level. Otherwise, in a two-on-two fight, it would have been hard to say who would win!
As for me, if I didn't have the system's help, once I was certain that I was no match for Dai Weisi and Sister Zhuyun, I would definitely make the same choice as Dai Mubai right away and run!
Zhu Zhuqing: Brother Yichen, are you ultimately going to make the same choice as Dai Mubai and leave me behind?
At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes gradually reddened.
Zhu Zhuyun patted Zhu Zhuqing's back in comfort, but sighed inwardly. Zhuqing's temperament really was not firm enough yet. If this continued, she would be in danger later on.
Of course, even if I were going to run, I would find an opportunity to take Zhuqing with me! After all, this is a matter between the two of us. I can't bring myself to abandon her.
Am I saying I like Zhuqing? Not really. Zhuqing is only five years old right now, after all. Since I awakened the memories of my past life, I can be considered to have some adult thoughts. At present, I'm not interested in little brats.
Still, sometimes I seem to do rather childish things around Zhuqing. Is it because I'm a child myself right now, so even though I've awakened my past-life memories, my body's instincts make my actions more childlike?
Zhu Zhuqing: Ah???
Zhu Zhuqing had originally smiled upon seeing that Brother Yichen wanted to take her with him when he ran away, but after seeing that it wasn't because he liked her, she became confused again.
Only then did Zhu Zhuyun feel that this was more normal. After all, if Younger Brother Yichen's age in his past life was included, he had to be at least in his twenties by now, right?
