Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Listening to the discussions of the retainers and advisors, the Prince of Zhennan, sitting in the main seat, and Lu Chen, sitting to the side, remained silent.

After everyone had finished their discussion, they turned their attention to the Prince of Zhennan. They did not have a way to identify the strangeness of the place, but the Prince of Zhennan might have one.

The first Zhennan King was able to identify the supernatural, so he must have left behind some methods for identifying the supernatural. Perhaps the Zhennan King possessed the methods for identifying the supernatural.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, the Prince of Zhennan instantly guessed what they were thinking, so he took the initiative to say, "I don't know how to identify the strange places hidden among the crowd."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall was taken aback.

At this moment, Zhao Yu asked, "Your Majesty, did the First King not leave behind any method to identify strange phenomena?"

The Prince of Zhennan replied, "No, it is rumored that the Great Ancestor used some kind of strange technique, which is why he could easily identify the strange. But it was precisely because of this that after the great battle, the Great Ancestor's cultivation level could no longer be improved, and he suffered a very strong backlash."

"Perhaps because supernatural arts are too harmful to people, the Great Ancestor did not pass on the supernatural arts he knew."

Speaking of supernatural arts, the Prince of Zhennan suddenly thought of his queen, and his gaze involuntarily turned to Lu Chen beside him.

Upon hearing the answer from the Prince of Zhennan, the people in the hall fell silent for a moment. If they couldn't even distinguish the strange creatures, then even if the Prince of Zhennan's mansion stood up to fight against them, they probably wouldn't be able to do anything about those five Earth Realm strange creatures.

After a long pause, Lu Xun spoke up: "The Zhou royal family has used various methods to deal with the Zhennan Prince's Mansion over the years, trying to destroy it. Now, what does the life and death of the Great Zhou have to do with us? If the Great Zhou is really destroyed by the strange army, we will leave the Great Zhou and go to other dynasties."

The advisors of the Prince of Zhennan had seen all the things the Zhou royal family had done to the Prince of Zhennan's residence over the years, and they had long been dissatisfied with the Zhou royal family.

If it weren't for the fact that the Prince of Zhennan was already old, and the backlash from the evil spirits was becoming increasingly severe, they probably would have already rallied around him and started a rebellion.

As soon as Lu Xun finished speaking, the other worshippers echoed his words.

"The royal family has been making things difficult for our Zhennan Prince's Mansion in every way. Not long ago, they even tried to persecute the heir and cut off the bloodline of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. They have gone to such extremes, so why should we help the royal family?"

"I also think we shouldn't help the royal family. Let them figure out how to deal with those strange beings at the Earth Realm level."

……

Hearing the chatter of the people, Lu Chen spoke up, "This is not to help the royal family."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's voice, everyone present fell silent and turned their gazes toward him.

After everyone quieted down, Lu Chen continued, "We can indeed leave the Great Zhou, but who can guarantee that those strange entities won't attack other dynasties after destroying the Great Zhou? Are we going to keep running away forever?"

The crowd was slightly surprised; they hadn't expected their prince to be someone who cared so much about the well-being of the people.

Lu Chen then added, "Of course, most importantly, we are not helping the royal family, but taking this opportunity to make the Zhennan Prince's Mansion rise again."

"If the royal family wants us to fight against the supernatural beings, they must give us some benefits. You can't cook without rice. If they don't give us anything, then the Zhennan Prince's Mansion will have no way to fight against those supernatural beings."

Everyone instantly understood Lu Chen's meaning: was he trying to coerce Kou Ziwei?
Fu Li then said, "But Your Highness, if we cannot find those strange things, how can we deal with them?"

"Moreover, their sealing is inextricably linked to the founding emperor. Once those strange creatures are freed, they will surely seek revenge against the Prince of Zhennan's mansion."

Lu Chen said, "Master Fu, you also know that the sealing of those strange beings was related to the Great Ancestor. So do you think that if we do nothing, those strange beings will let us go?" Hearing Lu Chen say this, everyone realized that it was true. Those five Earth Realm strange beings were sealed by the first Zhennan King, so they would definitely retaliate against the Zhennan King's Mansion.

Lu Chen continued, "As for how to identify those strange things, you don't need to worry about that; I can identify them."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment.

Is Lu Chen able to tell?

How does he distinguish them?

Even the Prince of Zhennan couldn't see the strangeness of the place where people were disguised as humans, so how could he possibly see it?

After regaining his senses, Zhao Yu asked, "Is what the young master said true?"

Lu Chen said calmly, "I remember telling you before that I have a skill to read people, so whether it's something strange or something evil, nothing can hide from my eyes."

This……

Lu Chen did indeed say that he had the ability to judge people. The fact that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion was able to find those spies and traitors was basically due to Lu Chen's efforts.

When Lu Chen first claimed he possessed some kind of talent for recognizing people, most people didn't believe him. They thought that Lu Chen was able to find those traitors because the Prince of Zhennan had secretly sent people to investigate the servants of the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, then gave the list to Lu Chen, asking him to read out the names of the traitors, thus creating momentum for Lu Chen.

Just then, the Prince of Zhennan, who had been silent until now, said, "Everyone should understand what Chen'er's words just now meant."

At this point, a cold glint flashed in the aged eyes of the Prince of Zhennan. In an instant, the black aura on his body surged out, and a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire hall.

Everyone naturally understood what the Prince of Zhennan was talking about. The biggest problem in dealing with the strange creatures of the Earth Realm was that they could not be found. However, Lu Chen was able to identify them. If this news reached the ears of those strange creatures of the Earth Realm, they would definitely try every means to get rid of Lu Chen. Therefore, Lu Chen's ability to identify strange creatures must be kept strictly confidential and not let any strange creature know about it.

However, some doubts remained in everyone's minds: could their young master really identify the supernatural?
Just then, a guard's voice came from outside the hall, "Your Majesty, His Majesty has arrived!"

Upon hearing this, the Prince of Zhennan immediately rose from his seat and said to everyone, "That's all for today."

As soon as he finished speaking, the court officials and advisors in the main hall immediately dispersed, leaving only the Prince of Zhennan and Lu Chen.

Soon, a eunuch's voice rang out from the entrance of the main hall, "His Majesty has arrived!"

Then, Emperor Zhou, dressed in a yellow dragon robe, appeared at the entrance of the council hall. Prince Zhennan and Lu Chen bowed to Emperor Zhou at the same time and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Zhou walked a few steps to the Prince of Zhennan, put his hands on the Prince's shoulders and said, "Prince of Zhennan, please rise. You are injured and there is no need for you to bow."

The Prince of Zhennan immediately said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After the Prince of Zhennan stood up, he gestured for him to take a seat and continued, "Your Majesty, please take a seat."

Emperor Zhou then sat down in the main seat, and Prince Zhennan instructed the servants of the Prince's residence to prepare tea.

Immediately afterwards, the Prince of Zhennan asked, "May I ask what brings Your Majesty to the Prince of Zhennan's residence today?" (End of this chapter)
