Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 8: The Sixth Prince Appears – What a coincidence!

Although the remnants of that Demon Sect are elusive and difficult to guard against, they are ultimately just a hidden force.

Even if his cultivation level is estimated to be higher, he would only be at the Purple Mansion Realm at most.

To put it bluntly, in front of Qin Rentu, let alone a Purple Mansion Realm expert, even a seventh-realm Enlightenment Realm expert would perish here.

This is not even in the same league as the opponent.

It's important to understand that in the later stages of cultivation, the strength of each minor realm differs drastically.

Unless you have powerful martial arts skills and divine weapons, you can't challenge opponents of higher levels.

Of course, it's not uncommon for someone at a lower level to challenge someone of a higher level.

Because the gap between them has not yet reached an insurmountable chasm.

Especially some people with special physiques are born extraordinary and possess various supernatural abilities, which is enough to make up for the gap in their early cultivation levels.

"Grandpa, that's what you say, but..."

Qin Linglong hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

She couldn't very well say that she trusted the system more.

Grandpa will be sad.

"Don't worry, with Grandpa here, it'll be hard for that kid Li Qiye to die even if he wants to."

Qin Rentu patted Qin Linglong on the shoulder to comfort her.

"Ok."

Qin Linglong took a deep breath and could only nod in agreement.

At this point, she was completely powerless and could only trust her grandfather and the hidden guards around Li Qiye.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Qin Rentu frowned slightly, looked into the distance, and his gaze fell on a young man.

"The Sixth Prince, Li Yunrui?"

the other side.

"Your Highness, that looks like the garrison commander of the nation."

Amidst the crowd, the Sixth Prince, Li Yunrui, always wore a faint smile, looking at the scene on both sides of the street as if he were merely sightseeing.

Following behind were some guards who noticed General Guozhu not far away and spoke respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunrui's smile froze, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, but he quickly recovered.

He walked towards Qin Rentu as if nothing had happened, and laughed heartily:

"General Guozhu, what a coincidence!"

"It's the Ghost Festival today. I didn't expect you to be out and about too."

"Humph!"

Qin Rentu's face turned cold, and he let out a cold snort.

Qin Linglong turned her head away, her face full of disgust.

Upon seeing this, Li Yunrui's smile froze.

He was about to say something when he heard a cold voice.

"Sixth Prince, I'll give you some face in public, don't force me to take action!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunrui frowned.

He took a deep breath and turned to leave without hesitation.

"As expected, I still find Li Qiye much more pleasing to the eye."

Qin Linglong snorted coldly.

"What happened back then has nothing to do with this Li Yunrui. It's just that he's that woman's son."

Qin Rentu remained calm, though a trace of sorrow lingered deep in his eyes.

Li Yunrui's mother had a very good relationship with Qin Rentu's daughter back then.

However, after they entered a secret realm together, his daughter never returned, while Li Yunrui's mother returned alive.

In Li Yunrui's mother's words, it was her daughter who risked her life to block the monster, which allowed her to escape back.

But Qin Rentu simply didn't believe it. His daughter was exceptionally talented and possessed a physique unknown to others: the Beast Spirit Divine Body!
She possesses the divine body of a beast spirit and is extremely close to all beasts. Unless those beasts are extremely enraged, they will not attack her.

Therefore, Li Yunrui's mother is lying.

Why was this woman lying? Qin Rentu could easily guess that his daughter's death was likely related to this woman, or perhaps she was the one who killed her.

However, that secret realm had been closed, and Qin Rentu had no evidence to prove that his daughter's death was related to this woman.

Moreover, this woman is of high status; she is the daughter of the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty. It would be impossible to force her to tell the truth.

Of course, this did not prevent Qin Rentu from breaking with the Grand Tutor's family.

From then on, they never spoke to each other again, and seeing each other was like seeing an enemy.

"Hmph, this family is no good!"

"A woman with a vicious heart will give birth to a son who is also very cunning."

Qin Linglong said coldly.

She didn't pay much attention to the Sixth Prince, Li Yunrui; her attention was entirely focused on Li Qiye.

Based on the system's prompts, she estimated the time; almost an incense stick's worth of time would have passed.

"The time it takes for an incense stick to burn is almost up!"

Qin Linglong became even more nervous.

Her palms were sweaty as she muttered to herself, "Li Yunrui seems to have walked in the direction of Li Qiye."

"Hopefully, Xiao Yun in the shadows will mistakenly kill Li Yunrui, which might not be such a bad thing!"

the other side.

The Sixth Prince, Li Yunrui, remained calm, a faint smile still on his face, and looked at Li Qiye, saying with a smile:

"Tenth Brother, what a coincidence to run into you here!"

"Also, what have you been busy with lately? I haven't seen you at the morning court these past few days, and you didn't attend the family banquet a few days ago either. Father was quite angry about it."

Li Yunrui's smile was radiant, as if he had truly met his beloved younger brother whom he hadn't seen for many days.

Li Qiye frowned slightly.

He looked the Sixth Prince Li Yunrui up and down, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Tenth brother, what are you looking at?"

As the Sixth Prince Li Yunrui spoke, he inadvertently moved closer to Li Qiye.

"I have to say, it's so similar!"

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to believe that one person could imitate another to this extent."

"Even their auras are exactly the same, what a pity..."

Li Qiye looked at the sixth prince, Li Yunrui, in front of him and shook his head.

Upon seeing this, Li Yunrui's expression changed.

However, at this moment, Li Qiye's voice came again.

"Your disguise skills are powerful, but you haven't reached the highest level yet, otherwise you really could achieve everything."

The next moment, a divine light burst forth.

After being recognized, the Sixth Prince Li Yunrui's face contorted, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao Yun's face was revealed, still showing shock.

How did Li Qiye recognize him?

Even Qin Rentu, who was at the eighth level of the Void Realm, did not notice anything amiss.

Li Qiye, a minor cultivator at the fourth stage of the Qi Opening Realm, actually discovered his true identity.

Something is wrong!
At this moment, Xiao Yun was suddenly startled.

He was surprised to discover that the tenth prince, who was only at the ninth level of the Awakening Realm according to the intelligence, had actually reached the fifth level of the Divine Treasure Realm.

Moreover, he wasn't just a recent breakthrough to the Divine Treasure Realm; he was at least at the fifth level of the Divine Treasure Realm.

Even so, the other party would have no way of discovering his true identity.

Unless this tenth prince, like him, has also opened his mind and eyes.

Only in this way can we discover his true colors.

But isn't this tenth prince supposed to be idle all day long and the weakest of the ten princes?

Before one reaches the highest level of disguise and can completely change their appearance, only those familiar with the technique and those with opened minds and spiritual senses can discern the truth.

This was also something one of Xiao Yun's masters told him.

He never forgot those words, nor did he look down on anyone.
