Jiang Chen paid the guards no mind His only response was a faint sly at the crown prince His expression was relaxed as he spoke “Are you interested in a private chat, Your Highness?”
Though the stranger had acted brusquely, the crown prince noticed his coh to mark this man as extraordinary Captains of the crown prince’s personal guard were usually uardshtly better ones half-step emperor realm and a few even mid rank eh to render the co his bladder in fear
The crown prince’s hesitationChen smile “As Veluriyam Capital’s line of defense on the northern border, Bluesky Nation is a principality of considerable importance You are its crown prince, are you not? Surely you have e than this” A provocation would usually do the trick
“Who are you, sir?” The prince’s face chilled “For so exceptionally discourteous There is no need for e I have I don’t even knohere you hail from Am I supposed to be polite to so Chen chuckled “Ah, absolutely You are the crown prince of a great nation, to be accorded a certain degree of respect However, that doesn’t mean it is deserved from everyone you meet”
His words were so authoritative that everyone on the prince’s side did a double take
There were no fools here Everyone sensed that the strange youth likely had extraordinary origins
“Do you come from Veluriyam Capital, friend?” The old ood eye, Grand Tutor Alas, you haven’t taught your student to a siree of excellence A crown prince should have a broader view of things” AChen’s current stature had more than sufficient authority to comment on the h to criticize a king He was the young lord of Sacred Peafowl Mountain, the future reat nations and cities sat within his territory
As it is written in the Book of Poetry, ‘Under the wide heaven / all is the king’s land, / within the sea-boundaries of the land / all are the king’s servants’ As the future ruler of Veluriyareat nations or lords of the great cities, everyone had to bow before him
But the crown prince was still somewhat of a youth A hint of dissatisfaction appeared on his face when he heard Jiang Chen’s words Thankfully, the old lances his way stifled his temper for the uards to attack But the effort of keeping his terily red face ItChen crack a sthat he can’t keep his cool

This sireat deal The crown prince’s face went froer Pill’s associated proble time now He’d spent quite some tirand tutor’s eyes lit up “Do you know about the Fierce Tiger Pill, friend?”
The crown prince’s eyes began to shi+ne with interest as hen he heard the question His unconvinced eyes roa the other youth er Pill is hardly complicated or re fit for me to practice hen I was ten, that’s all A second-rate pill at best” Jiang Chen casually shrugged
The crown prince’s entire body shook “Bragging doesn’t cost you anything,” he curled his lip
Jiang Chen didn’t bother to explain He continued to speak with the sathen the body and tap into one’s latent potential It is able to multiply a cultivator’s power several times over for a short time Commonly used in theside effects as well The best pill kings do not typically find it hile to refine soe in the crown prince’s skepticis there was to say about the pill
“You are not the average scholar, friend, but a veritable expert!” The grand tutor was extreuest here is a ive a nice speech, huh? That’s no proof of his competence” The crown prince still looked sorinned at that The young crown prince was flipping the provocation card back at hih, it ide of the er Pill is too low-ranked, crown prince I would not care to refine it even if you provoked me ten tier Eruption Pill It, too, is a berserk pill, and you can consider it a ranked-up version of the Fierce Tiger Pill It is superior to its lesser version in both medicinal effect and the severity of its side effects Moreover, because it is a recipe from the Deviant Pill Faction, its cost is incredibly low”
“Tiger Eruption Pill?” The grand tutor’s eyes glittered “I believe I’ve heard of that pill before Hmm, if I recall correctly, there’s a store called Taiyuan Tower in Veluriya lord of Sacred Peafowl Mountain owns it”
“Exactly so,” Jiang Chen nodded
