Fan Xian's wish is to have many, many children and live a very, very good life.

In his previous life, he was a liberal arts student with an excellent memory, and his mind was full of poems and famous works.

However, with Li Chang'an around, he dared not expose himself at all. In recent years, Prince Yong's secret guards had killed countless people in the martial arts world, and Fan Xian had heard about it.

Therefore, his main purpose in going to Dadong Mountain was to observe Li Chang'an up close.

If he were truly a time traveler, he wouldn't have such reverence for any temples; Fan Xian was an atheist in his previous life.

"Uncle, we're not joking. You just need to protect me."

Wu Zhu nodded mechanically, "Okay."

A few days later, at the summit of Mount Dadong.

Ordinary martial artists wouldn't improve their training speed much in Da Dong Mountain; otherwise, the imperial court would have already taken control of Da Dong Mountain and turned it into a base for cultivating experts.

Even this slight increase in speed still attracted many ascetic practitioners to cultivate.

Li Chang'an could sense that the spiritual energy here was several times higher than in other places.

After mastering the Northern Darkness Divine Art, a vortex of true energy will form in the dantian from the outside in, and every acupoint in the body will generate a powerful suction force!

The primordial energy of heaven and earth surged wildly into his acupoints. With each cycle of the cultivation technique, Li Chang'an's Northern Darkness True Qi became even more vast and boundless!

While Li Chang'an was practicing asceticism around the Qing Temple on Dadong Mountain, his stand-in was worshipping the statues of gods in the main hall.

The Shadow Guards stood watch at the entrance, but did not prohibit the people from watching from a distance.

Fan Xian watched from afar as His Highness Prince Yong respectfully conducted the sacrificial ceremony, his expression extremely respectful and his attitude very devout!

At this moment, Fan Xian kept thinking to himself, "This guy doesn't seem like a time traveler at all!"

What time traveler would be so superstitious? Even if they were religious before time travel, the religions in this world are completely different from those in their previous life.

Fan Xian carefully observed Li Chang'an's behavior and manners, which were completely disciplined and all his actions were as if he had been trained!

If they were truly time travelers, would they be so obedient and well-behaved?

For years, Fan Xian had suspected that Li Chang'an was a smokescreen released by the real time traveler to make money and profit.

"It seems my guess was right. Li Chang'an gained both fame and fortune through this smokescreen, but he also faced the risk of being robbed and assassinated."

"The real time traveler is most likely hiding in the shadows, perhaps even deep within the palace!"

"Otherwise, who would dare to use a prince to cover for them?"

"Fortunately, he's in the open while I'm in the shadows, so I'm absolutely safe."

Because of Li Chang'an's appearance, Fan Xian used his martial arts skills to gain a detailed understanding of this world ahead of time.

He needs to find a way to get rich without revealing his identity as a time traveler, otherwise his time travel would have been for nothing!

He diligently practiced his domineering internal energy while also honing his skills in Go and medicine.

Poetry, lyrics, and songs no longer work; glass, soap, and sugar have all been invented. Li Chang'an alone possesses the three perfections of poetry, calligraphy, and painting.

Fortunately, he also learned chess from the four arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and Fei Jie taught him medicine and poison very well.

Fan Xian, with his exceptional mental abilities, possesses a vast amount of chess scores from his past life. With a little recall and training, his chess skills become quite formidable.

Chess skills can bring fame, medical skills can bring wealth, and martial arts and poison skills can protect oneself—this is Fan Xian's perfect plan.

into the night.

As Fan Xian and Wu Zhu walked down the mountain path, Wu Zhu suddenly said, "Should I go and kill that person?"

These words startled Fan Xian. "Uncle! Who are you going to kill?"

Wu Zhu said, "You've been staring at that Prince Yong all day, and you seem restless. I can sense that."

Fan Xian quickly said, "Absolutely not! His hundred Shadow Guards have slaughtered countless people in the martial world. You can't take that risk."

Wu Zhu said emotionlessly, "Those below the Grandmaster level are all ants..."

Fan Xian nervously swallowed. "Uncle, is it really true that only Grandmasters are worthy of being your opponents?"

Wu Zhu shook his head blankly. "Grandmasters... are just larger ants. I have a way to kill a Grandmaster in one blow!"

Upon hearing Wu Zhu's words, Fan Xian subconsciously touched Wu Zhu's forehead, which was at a normal temperature as always, indicating no fever.

"Uncle, do you have a way to instantly kill a Grandmaster?"

Wu Zhu nodded, then shook his head. "There must be, but I forgot."

The year you were born, I got into a fight and forgot a lot of things.

Fan Xian pursed his lips, and Wu Zhu immediately became anxious, his tone becoming very hurried.

"Fan Xian, believe me... Even if I forget the instant-kill technique, I can still fight a Grandmaster!"

Although Fan Xian was somewhat skeptical, he nodded firmly, "Uncle, I believe you! I believe you!"

He was often beaten by Wu Zhu, and felt that Wu Zhu's strength should be above the eighth rank. As for the claim that he could fight a Grandmaster, he dared not believe it completely.

"Uncle, I know your strength. Could you help me find out what's really going on with Prince Yong? I have a feeling he has someone backing him."

Fearing that Wu Zhu would be entangled by the Shadow Guards, he added, "I know you're powerful, but if you're discovered, you must get away as soon as possible."

“If we attract unnecessary trouble, we won’t be able to live peacefully in Danzhou.”

At fourteen, Fan Xian still envisioned himself as a wealthy man from Danzhou.

His probing of Li Chang'an stemmed entirely from his curiosity as a fellow time traveler, and since he happened to have a master like Wu Zhu by his side, he did it on a whim.

Wu Zhu nodded. "I understand. Even if I am discovered, I will not reveal my identity."

Fan Xian stared in surprise; Wu Zhu had actually learned to apply what he had learned to other situations.

Wu Zhu patted Fan Xian on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm very good at this kind of thing. Miss often sends me to do it."

"If I'm discovered, I'll use the Four-Looking Sword technique."

Fan Xian never expected that Wu Zhu would frame someone else. "Mother is brilliant! Uncle is brilliant too!"

Wu Zhu, lacking true qi, successfully infiltrated the vicinity of the substitute's residence and overheard the substitute's conversation with others.

"Your Highness, the master said to stay here for now and await further orders."

The members of the Luo Wang organization are all rigorously trained and would never reveal the identity of a stand-in in private.

The speaker was another sword slave, Wangliang. The "sir" they referred to was Zhao Gao, who was also conveying Li Chang'an's orders.

Wu Zhu stayed for a while, but Duan Shui only discussed martial arts with Wang Liang and didn't provide any other valuable information.

However, just as Wu Zhu leaped onto the high wall of Qing Temple, a sinister voice suddenly came from ahead.

"Who are you, and what brings you here?"

"Your methods are superb, almost completely silent."

"If it weren't for the decaying walls of this temple, which caused some noise, I wouldn't have been able to find you."

When Wu Zhu heard Zhao Gao's voice, Zhao Gao had already attacked him with a palm strike!

The two men didn't make much noise when they started fighting, but Li Chang'an, a ninth-rank official, heard the commotion immediately.

He leaped onto the roof of the temple and saw Zhao Gao fighting a swordsman in black.

The man remained silent, but Zhao Gao recognized his moves. "The Four-Sided Sword Technique! You are from Dongyi City!"

Wu Zhu sneered, "You have good taste."

Under the moonlight, Li Chang'an could clearly see the blindfolded face.

Wu Zhu only managed to steal a sword from a master of the Shadow Guard in this temple; he didn't discover that the night clothes could cover his face.

Name: Wu Zhu

Age: Approximately 17 years old

Realm: Grandmaster (before removing the blindfold)

Talents/Abilities: Artificial Intelligence (any talent and ability can be set)

Sentiment: -50

Fan Xian's foster father, the first director of the Supervisory Council, the robot Wu Zhu!

However, Li Chang'an and he had never met before, so who started this feud?

Chapter 57 Rank Nine, Upper Level! System Settlement! Plotting to Seize Barrett!

Wu Zhu was actually holding a sword and was still using the Four-Looking Sword Technique, but he wasn't using his true strength.

This suggests that Wu Zhu wasn't there to assassinate Li Chang'an; at most, he was there to eavesdrop and test him. If he were truly there to assassinate Li Chang'an, he would have gone all out.

Li Chang'an specially arranged for a double, both to facilitate the real person's actions in the shadows and to deal with assassination attempts.

Even if Wu Zhu really came to kill him today, he could escape unscathed, but the Shadow Guard would suffer heavy losses.

If Wu Zhu wasn't there to assassinate him, then where did his hatred come from?

Wu Zhu's feelings for Fan Xian may even be stronger than Fan Xian's, and Li Chang'an feels that Fan Xian may harbor hostility towards him.

Wu Zhu fought and retreated, while Zhao Gao grew increasingly alarmed and gradually lost the ability to catch up.
