Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

Chapter 84 Disguise, Ambition

Fang Xu smiled and bowed his hands in compliment:
"It's all thanks to the prince's teaching."

"I'll tell the person who came and wait for the prince to make arrangements."

Li Xun waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."

"During this period, no warriors have harassed Zhiyuan Hall, right?"

Fang Xu quickly cupped his hands and said, "With the words from the Crown Prince and His Highness, those warriors would not dare to harass Zhiyuan Hall even if they had the guts to do so!"

Li Xun showed a hint of smile on his face: "Of course, okay, go ahead."

Fang Xu bowed and left.

After returning to Zhiyuan Hall, I briefly told Wang about my work and she was very happy.

She is a strong woman at heart, otherwise she would not have married Wang Ergou.

With a new source of income, he would no longer be like a burden and suck Fang Xu's blood.

In the evening, after Xing Rong found an inn in the town and arranged accommodation, she went to Zhiyuan Hall to ask for the reply from Prince Li Xun.

Fang Xu told her what Li Xun meant. Xing Rong was very happy and immediately bowed respectfully to Fang Xu. She also said that she would prepare a big gift for Fang Xu after the blood food shop opened.

Time flies and two days have passed.

Early that morning, Fang Xu woke up from his practice, picked up the golden silk soft armor beside him, and began to mobilize the power hidden in his acupoints to try to put the soft armor away.

Black energy emerged, and the golden soft armor instantly disappeared in his hand.

"It's done!"

Fang Xu was happily looking at the golden soft armor floating in the fourth acupoint space, and his expression suddenly froze!
This piece of golden soft armor was slightly deformed and damaged when he punched it. Now that it has just entered the acupoint space, it is slowly recovering under the influence of a mysterious force.

Not bad!

Fang Xu became even happier upon seeing this.

His consciousness withdrew from the secret acupoints, and he immediately went to the martial arts field in the courtyard to start practicing.

After practicing the Nine Monkeys Stick Technique, I felt relaxed all over and sweated profusely.

Snapped!
Snapped!
……

Just as he put away his stick and prepared to go back to wash his face, faint applause came from the gate of Zhiyuan Hall.

Fang Xu turned around and saw Li Xun at the door. He immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Prince."

After paying homage, Fang Xu's expression suddenly changed!
Yun Wan once instructed that Li Xun must not be allowed to see Chu Mu!
At this time, Fang Xu estimated that Chu Mu should have gotten up, and Lu Qingluo should have gotten up as well.

Lu Qingluo's appearance is not inferior to Chu Mu. If Li Xun saw the two of them...

Seeing Fang Xu hunched over and not moving, Li Xun frowned slightly and said, "Why? Don't you want me to come in and sit down?"

Fang Xu stood up, a little hesitant: "This..."

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak and seemed not to want to let him go to the inner courtyard, Li Xun turned his head and glanced towards the inner courtyard.

The light of morning sun shone on a girl in a wheelchair. The girl turned the wheelchair and then struggled to stand up. The stubbornness on her pretty face was heartbreaking.

Li Xun was stunned.

"Prince..." Following Li Xun's gaze and seeing that Chu Mu had already gotten up, Fang Xu's heart sank instantly.

Li Xun ignored him and walked straight towards the inner courtyard.

In the inner courtyard, Lu Qingluo had just gotten up and was about to practice spearmanship, but when he saw Li Xun coming, his expression suddenly changed!
Fang Xu followed behind Li Xun, wanting to stop him, but was afraid of completely angering him.

"The meridians in your legs are completely damaged. It will be very difficult for you to stand up." Looking at Chu Mu, Li Xun said calmly.

Chu Mu raised his head and looked at Li Xun, who looked like a child in front of him, with some curiosity. Then he looked at Fang Xu, as if asking, who is this person?
Fang Xu said with a stiff upper lip: "Mu, come and meet the prince."

"Prince, this is the boy's sister."

When Chu Mu heard Li Xun's identity, he was a little scared and wanted to salute, but his body was shaking.

Li Xun quickly supported her and said, "No need to be so polite."

Chu Mu sat in the wheelchair gratefully, then looked at Li Xun and said, "In reply to the prince, Mu feels that since there is hope for recovery, we should always give it a try."

"Who would be willing to be a useless person and be looked down upon by others all his life?"

Li Xun was slightly stunned, and in his mind he recalled the hardships he had suffered in practicing martial arts over the years. Born a dwarf, he had been looked down upon and ridiculed since childhood.

His father hired many doctors and martial arts experts for him, but they all asserted that it would be difficult for him to practice martial arts due to his physical condition.

But he didn't want to give up. He hid it from his father and everyone else, enduring tremendous pain every day to train himself. Finally, after he became a martial artist, his talent was revealed.

Taking advantage of his short stature, he practiced the art of assassination, and made rapid progress since then. Now, at the age of twenty, he has reached the perfection of a martial artist, becoming a martial arts prodigy that Yu State has not seen in a century.

"You have a heart that dares not be ordinary, that's good." Li Xun came back to his senses and praised him. He turned to look at Fang Xu and asked, "Are you stopping me for these two?"

Fang Xu didn't dare to speak.

Li Xun smiled faintly and said, "Isn't it Yun Wan who told you a lot of rumors about this prince?"

Fang Xu quickly shook his head: "Miss Yun has never said anything bad about the prince to me!"

Li Xun waved his hand disapprovingly.

He glanced at Chu Mu, then turned to face the rising sun and fell into deep thought.

a long time--

"Initially, my brothers never regarded me as an opponent, or even as a human being."

"After the rise of martial arts, they realized the crisis and began to target me repeatedly."

"After experiencing many assassination attempts, I understand one thing: when you are not strong enough to dominate the whole situation, you should show weakness to the enemy."

"So, I became murderous, lustful, and tyrannical... In short, in the eyes of outsiders, I am a lunatic whose mind is twisted because of my own flaws."

Li Xun said, then slowly turned around and looked at Fang Xu and said, "The entire Zhongzhou knows that my relationship with most of the ministers in the court and all the forces in Zhongzhou is very bad."

"Because I stole their daughters, daughters-in-law, and granddaughters, and tortured them to death!"

"I just want them to hate me. The more they hate me, the safer I will be."

Li Xun rarely told Fang Xu about his past.

"Sir..."

Fang Xu cupped his hands, not knowing what to say for a moment.

From Li Xun's perspective, being born into a royal family means being in a whirlpool. It is right for him to want to become stronger and it is right for him to want to protect himself, but killing people and defiling himself in order to protect himself is a bit too much.

"Alright, I have only told you about this matter. If it gets out and ruins my plans, you know the consequences."

Li Xun regained his previous indifference and spoke calmly.

Fang Xu's heart trembled, and he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, my lord. I will keep my mouth shut!"

"Where are the people from the Xing family?" Li Xun changed the subject and said, "Take me to see him."

……

Restaurant in town.

After Fang Xu introduced Li Xun's identity to Xing Rong, Xing Rong bowed respectfully: "I pay my respects to the prince."

Glancing at Xing Rong, Li Xun frowned and said, "You are neither the direct heir of the Xing family nor the head of the Xing family. What's the point of coming to see this prince?"

After saying this, he stood up and prepared to leave.

A small character in the Xing family cannot represent the Xing family, so he is too lazy to waste time with her.

Xing Rong was a little anxious when she saw this, and immediately said, "As long as the prince is willing to help, it is possible for me to become the direct heir of the Xing family or even the head of the Xing family!"

These words made Li Xun pause slightly, and he slowly turned around to look at her.

Xing Rong quickly knelt on one knee and said, "My lord, please don't abandon me. I am willing to follow your lead!"

Looking at the woman kneeling in front of him, Li Xun smiled.

"It's good to have ambition, but you also need to have strength."

"Tell me, what is your current situation in the Xing family?"

Xing Rong quickly stood up and displayed all the forces she had planned over the years, aiming to impress investor Li Xun to invest in her.
