Chapter 1335 - Chapter 1335 Chapter 1335 Jiu Bailu I Refuse (23)

Chapter 1335: Chapter 1335 Jiu Bailu: I Refuse (2/3) Chapter 1335: Chapter 1335 Jiu Bailu: I Refuse (2/3) Unbreakable causality?

Mu Fusheng’s expression turned from stunned to horrified, and then from horrified to terrified.

In just the brief span of two breaths, Mu Fusheng’s face had undergone several transformations…

Jiu Bailu’s eyes crinkled with a smile, her elbow resting on the stone table with her luminously pale forearm supporting her chin, as she looked at Mu Fusheng and said, “Is it that terrifying? Could it be that I am some sort of disastrous beast?”

Mu Fusheng instinctively nodded and replied, “That’s even more terrifying than a disastrous beast…”

“But how do you know?” Mu Fusheng frowned and asked, “Even those top experts cannot fully grasp the Way of Cause and Effect, yet we’ve only met a few times and you are already so sure?”

Pointing to her own eyes, Jiu Bailu said with a light smile, “It’s because of my physique, my eyes are different from others.”

While she spoke, a strand of golden light in the depths of Jiu Bailu’s pupils began to spread, eventually covering her entire pupils, turning them gold!

Mu Fusheng also stared slightly astonished at these eyes.

“These eyes of mine can see certain causalities,” Jiu Bailu said. “However, at my current realm, my vision is still quite rough; I can’t make out what exactly the causal thread is about. But one thing I do know is that we are not enemies.”

Hearing this, a storm seemed to rise in Mu Fusheng’s heart.

In this world, there actually was someone who could see the Way of Cause and Effect.

And as one’s strength increased, this ability of the eyes would improve as well.

Could it be that if Jiu Bailu reached a certain realm, she might completely understand causality?

“Is that why you’ve set your sights on me?” Mu Fusheng asked.

Without any reservation, Jiu Bailu nodded and said, “Correct. At first, I paid attention to you because Xiao Jiu…that is, the Crown Prince told me that among you all, your strength was the most elusive. That’s why I waylaid you outside the Azure Dragon Courtyard. Surprisingly, it turns out we are also causally linked.”

“Not to mention… you performed quite well in the great hall.”

Observing Jiu Bailu’s teasing gaze, Mu Fusheng instantly tensed up his entire body and changed his stance, preparing himself to either flee at the fastest speed possible or to burst out with his most powerful abilities.

“My eyes, they can not only see causality but also see more strength than the average person,” Jiu Bailu boasted. “But your power is hidden too deep. I can only perceive a few layers; as for the deeper strengths you’ve masked, I truly cannot determine how strong they actually are.”

As she spoke, Jiu Bailu poured the brewed tea into cups and gestured an invitation.

As Mu Fusheng took his seat, Jiu Bailu continued smiling and said, “However, to have strength that even my Golden Eyes of Fate cannot fully penetrate must indeed be somewhat terrifying.”

Tasting the tea, Mu Fusheng said helplessly, “Then I really acted in vain.”

Jiu Bailu laughed and said, “At least you fooled everyone else, didn’t you?”

“This way…” Mu Fusheng suddenly thought of something, put down his tea cup, and seriously said to Jiu Bailu, “Since you’ve seen that our causal relationship isn’t antagonistic, how about we make an arrangement?”

Sipping her tea, Jiu Bailu smiled and replied, “Go ahead, I’ll see if I agree.”

“Let’s try not to meet in the future.”

“And if we do meet, don’t make it obvious to others that we know each other, just act like strangers.”

“Also, please don’t mention me in front of anyone else.”

“Is that alright?” Mu Fusheng looked at Jiu Bailu expectantly.

Setting down her tea cup, Jiu Bailu smiled and said, “The first condition, whether I agree or not, as long as there is causality between us, we are bound to meet under some circumstances.”

“The second, I can’t do it. As for the third, not to mention your name in front of strangers?”

Mu Fusheng: “…How is that different from a refusal?”

Jiu Bailu: “Then consider it a refusal.”

Mu Fusheng: “This will be very tiring for me. Won’t your admirers queue up daily to challenge me, yelling to tear me apart?”

Jiu Bailu: “Isn’t that the perfect motivation for you to keep training hard?”

Looking at Jiu Bailu batting her captivatingly large eyes, Mu Fusheng really wanted to strangle her right then and there.

But on second thought, he decided against it.

He could only sigh helplessly.

“Alright, let’s talk business,” he said.

Mu Fusheng was surprised. “Weren’t we already talking business?”

“I mean about the military drills!” Jiu Bailu rolled his eyes. “Try to help the Crown Prince as much as you can. He might be very cunning and scheming, but he’s definitely not a bad person.”

Mu Fusheng asked, “What is the Crown Prince to you?”

Jiu Bailu said indifferently, “The only family I have, my younger brother.”

Only then did Mu Fusheng realize.

No wonder the seemingly indifferent Jiu Bailu went to such lengths to help the Crown Prince.

Mu Fusheng waved his hand and said, “Alright, I’ll do my best. Is there anything else? If not, I’ll be leaving.”

Jiu Bailu said with a smile, “Won’t you finish your tea?”

Still talking about tea…

After hearing all this, Mu Fusheng wished never to set foot here again in his lifetime!

He vanished in an instant as if he had greased his feet.

Watching this scene, Jiu Bailu couldn’t help but cover his mouth and chuckle. “Interesting.”

…

The military drills had already been underway for seven days.

Since the first and second stages did not require Mu Fusheng and his group to participate, they had finished watching these stages from the spectator area.

They also gathered some intelligence on the strengths of the various armies.

Generally speaking, the other armies didn’t need much attention.

What truly needed attention were two top-tier armies under the Crown Prince, the Candle Dragon Army and the Reverse Scales Army.

The Red Dragon Army under the command of the Third Crown Prince.

As for the army of the Fifth Crown Prince, it was hardly worth fearing.

The strength of these three armies was extremely formidable.

Any one of these armies could be considered a few notches above the Azure Dragon Army under the Crown Prince’s command.

Each of these three armies had an Ancestral Realm Beginner Stage powerhouse at its helm.

And within the Candle Dragon Army, there was also an Ancestral Realm Intermediate Stage powerhouse.

As for the Azure Dragon Army, it only had one Ancestral Realm Beginner Stage powerhouse, and its overall strength was somewhat weaker.

However, the presence of external allies might widen this gap even further.

For instance, the Crown Prince had enlisted the support of four almost-Ancestral Realm allies.

The Red Dragon Army of the Third Crown Prince was supported by Cang Ming from Canghua Manor and another almost-Ancestral Realm powerhouse.

As for the Holy Son of Xuan Ming, he was merely an observer.

After all, the Xuanwu Divine Dynasty was an enemy of the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty, and could only observe, not participate.

The other external allies were mostly vassal forces of the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty, except for the Mixed Spirit Academy.

The third stage would begin a journey to the Nine Dragon Mountain Range tomorrow.

During these days, while Mu Fusheng was gathering intelligence, he continuously engraved talismans.

On the final day, the Crown Prince also brought Mu Fusheng and his two companions to the Azure Dragon Army.
