Chapter 2 Avoiding Disaster? No, I'm here... to seize the throne!
Chapter 2 Avoiding Disaster? No, I'm here... to seize the throne!
Thinking of this, Lin Hanzhou couldn't help but smile.
In the Blue Star world, his cultivation at the third level of the Meridian Opening Realm wouldn't even qualify him as cannon fodder.
In this world of the Great Sui Dynasty, they are actually the combat power standing at the top of the pyramid.
Who would have thought that someone at the first level of the Qi Opening Realm could be called a master?
"System, you said that the greater the change you make to the world, the higher your evaluation and the richer the reward?"
Lin Hanzhou silently recited in his heart.
[Yes, host. 】
[The methods of alteration include, but are not limited to: changing the fate of individuals, altering the rise and fall of dynasties, altering the course of world martial arts, and altering the direction of civilizational development.]
Hearing the system's reply, Lin Hanzhou looked thoughtful.
This may seem complicated, but it's actually encouraging him to cause trouble.
If you're going to cause trouble, what could be better than becoming emperor?
With his innate strength at the third level, he is not a fish on the chopping block in this battle for the throne, but a knife-wielding butcher!
"Avoiding disaster? No, I'm here... to seize the throne!"
Once the thought was made up in his mind, Lin Hanzhou's entire demeanor suddenly changed.
At this moment, he was like a sharp sword about to be drawn from its sheath, its edge fully revealed!
He gently tapped on the side of the car.
"Your Highness, what are your orders?"
The driver's respectful voice could be heard from outside.
"Turn back to the post station, I have important business with Seventh Brother."
Lin Hanzhou's voice wasn't loud, but it was firm and carried an undeniable authority.
The coachman felt a chill, sensing that the Eleventh Prince's voice seemed quite different from usual.
He dared not ask any more questions and immediately reined in his horse.
The carriage slowly turned its head, the wheels rolling over the gravel on the official road, making a soft sound.
..........
As the sun sets, the Fengyun Post Station beside the official road appears exceptionally quiet.
In a private room on the second floor, the Seventh Prince Lin Yuan stood by the window.
He was a handsome young man with a refined and scholarly demeanor.
At this moment, his gentle eyes were filled with an unyielding sorrow.
He both hoped that his eleventh brother could successfully escape the trouble, and couldn't help but feel uneasy about the impending bloodshed in the capital.
Just then, a servant rushed in to report.
"Seventh Prince, the Eleventh Prince's carriage is here."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan's spirits lifted, and he hurriedly looked down.
Sure enough, upon looking up, they saw the familiar carriage slowly heading towards the post station.
He breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed the other party hadn't encountered any danger on the way.
However, when the carriage came to a stop and only Lin Hanzhou stepped down, Lin Yuan's brows furrowed again.
He walked quickly downstairs and met Lin Hanzhou, who was walking into the post station.
"Eleventh brother, what's wrong with you...?"
Lin Yuan was stunned into silence by the unprecedented calm and confidence on Lin Hanzhou's face when he was only halfway through his sentence.
Although the boy in front of me still had that thin figure.
But the other person stood up straight, with a deep and piercing gaze, and walked with a steady gait.
Where is even a trace of the timidity and inferiority of the past?
"Seventh Brother, I'm preparing to return to the capital."
Lin Hanzhou smiled slightly, his tone calm, as if he had just returned from a long trip.
"Go back to the capital? You're being ridiculous!"
Lin Yuan snapped out of his daze and quickly pulled Lin Hanzhou upstairs, speaking urgently in a low voice.
"Are you out of your mind? I finally managed to get you out of here, what are you doing back here? Committing suicide?!"
His voice was full of anxious disappointment.
Lin Hanzhou let him pull him along, feeling the concern emanating from his hand, and a warmth flowed through his heart.
Although this seventh brother was also caught up in the power struggle within the imperial court, he genuinely cared about him.
"Seventh Brother, don't be in a hurry."
Lin Hanzhou gently patted the back of his hand, signaling him to calm down.
That calm and unhurried attitude made Lin Yuan feel increasingly unfamiliar with him.
"You're telling me not to rush?"
Lin Yuan was so angry he almost laughed, and then he spoke.
"Do you know what tonight means? Third Brother and Ninth Brother have gone mad!"
"They wouldn't even consider father-son or brotherly affection for that position!"
"You have no cultivation whatsoever... what can you do if you go back?"
"Who says I have no cultivation?"
Lin Hanzhou interrupted him, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan was taken aback.
"What...what did you say?"
Lin Hanzhou did not explain directly, but instead glanced at a guard downstairs who looked wary.
That guard was Lin Yuan's personal bodyguard, a master at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm.
"Seventh Brother, may I borrow one of your guards?"
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Hanzhou suddenly moved.
He took a step forward and appeared in front of the guard almost instantly.
The guard was immediately alarmed and instinctively drew his sword to block.
However, his sword was only half-drawn when he felt a numbness in his wrist.
A sudden, skillful force caused the longsword to fly out of his hand uncontrollably, landing on the ground with a clatter.
Lin Hanzhou's fingers were already lightly resting on his throat.
The entire process was smooth and fluid, without any unnecessary movements.
This scene left Lin Yuan and the surrounding servants dumbfounded, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
They never imagined that the seemingly ordinary eleventh prince was actually a martial arts master.
The guard, who was at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm, was sweating profusely. His body was as stiff as a stone, and he dared not move at all.
He could clearly feel that if the other party exerted even the slightest force with their fingertips, his life would end instantly.
Lin Hanzhou was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.
He withdrew his finger, took a step back, and smiled at the terrified guard as if nothing had happened, saying, "Thank you for your kind offer."
Then, he turned to look at Lin Yuan, who was staring blankly, shrugged, and said.
"Seventh Brother, do you still think I'm going back to my death?"
Lin Yuan opened his mouth, but it felt like something was blocking his throat, and he couldn't utter a single word.
He stared intently at Lin Hanzhou, as if he were meeting this younger brother for the first time.
One move! With just one move, he effortlessly subdued his prized personal bodyguard!
What kind of strength is this?
Innate! This is a power that only those at the Innate Realm can possess!
"You...you..."
Lin Yuan's voice trembled as he pointed at Lin Hanzhou, his words tumbling out incoherently with excitement.
"When...how could you...weren't your meridians blocked?"
Faced with Lin Yuan's question, Lin Hanzhou scratched his head, at a loss for words.
"I don't know what happened. I fell asleep in the carriage and woke up suddenly with cultivation. Maybe it was a blessing from heaven."
Upon hearing this, the corners of everyone's mouths twitched involuntarily.
Good heavens, this is the first time they've ever heard of gaining cultivation by sleeping in a carriage.
This is absolutely outrageous—it's outrageous to the extreme.
However, what they didn't know was that Lin Hanzhou wasn't lying.
He really did fall asleep in the carriage and suddenly gained cultivation.
However, you need to have the same system as Lin Hanzhou.
