Although he had been drugged, after the initial panic, Zhu Wuyang quickly understood.

Although Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu had already killed more than 100 Princes and Princesses, because of his hard work over the years, he still had more than 200 children remaining.

Among so many Princes and Princesses, there were only 10 to 20 who could be chosen as the Crown Prince. Most of the Princes and Princesses basically had no chance of being chosen as the Crown Prince.

Therefore, these people did not care about Zhu Wuyang as a shield. After seeing Zhu Wuyang being comforted by the Mad Emperor, it was normal for them to attack him out of jealousy.

Fortunately, perhaps because they were afraid, considering that Zhu Wuyang was still a shield for many powerful Princes and Princesses, the other party did not poison him to death. They only drugged him and did not intend to kill him.

Otherwise, Zhu Wuyang would be in danger today. Many poisons in the Jiu Zhao Nation could kill people with just a tiny amount.

Just as he was about to call Lai Chun and Chu Xia in to tell them about this, Zhu Wuyang thought of something. His strength was increasing, and it was becoming more and more difficult to hide it.

If he could increase the strength he revealed to the others, it would be easier for Zhu Wuyang to hide his aura. Now that he had encountered such a good opportunity, why not use it to his advantage?

This way, even if he could not hide his strength in the future, he could still push the blame to being drugged. With similar precedent incidents, it would be easier for others to believe him in the future.

After considering it, Zhu Wuyang sneered and sat down to eat. The notification from the Special Opportunity System kept flashing.

“Congratulations to the host for tasting cherry meat that has been drugged for the first time in your life. You have received 500 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for tasting the drug-mixed hibiscus cake for the first time in your life. You have received 500 breakthrough points…”

“Congratulations to the host for tasting the tonic-infused stewed fat duck for the first time in your life. You have received 500 breakthrough points…”

… .

Soon, nearly 10 dishes of delicacies were eaten by Zhu Wuyang. At the same time, Lai Chun and Chu Xia, who were guarding outside, also sensed something.

“Chu… Chu Xia, do… do you feel anything?” Lai Chun’s face suddenly turned pale as she looked at Chu Xia in fear.

Chu Xia’s eyes widened. “Lai Chun, you… you feel it too?”

Lai Chun nodded slightly. “Although those dishes are not poisonous, they have been drugged with tonics to increase one’s strength. Moreover, I don’t know what was added to the food to delay the effects of the tonics until now.”

“Hurry up and stop the Crown Prince!” Chu Xia didn’t have time to think. She immediately rushed into the bedroom and ran towards the study where Zhu Wuyang was eating.

Soon, the two of them rushed into Zhu Wuyang’s study.

“Your Highness, someone has drugged the food. Don’t eat it!”

“Stop, Your Highness!”

… .

Looking at Lai Chun and Chu Xia who rushed into the study, Zhu Wuyang was stunned at first. Then, he seemed to have sensed something. “What… what’s wrong with my body? It’s like I’m on fire. My vital energy and blood are increasing at an astonishing speed. There’s poison in this food!”

As he spoke, Zhu Wuyang sat cross-legged on the ground. His face was filled with fear as he began to circulate the Grand Earth Limitless Technique, as if he was absorbing a huge amount of medicinal power.

At the same time, Zhu Wuyang’s strength began to increase at an extremely fast speed.

Looking at the finished food and Zhu Wuyang, who had fallen to the ground to helplessly increase his strength, Lai Chun and Chu Xia almost cried.

“Your Highness, we didn’t do it on purpose! We didn’t expect someone to drug you, and it’s a tonic that can delay the effects of strength improvement. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn’t have let you eat it.”

“Who is so vicious as to use this poison on the Crown Prince? Their intentions are simply unfathomable.”

… .

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they felt Zhu Wuyang’s aura increase greatly. “Not good, I’ve broken through to the Late-stage of Tendons Refinement. There’s still so much medicinal power that I haven’t absorbed. If I absorb it all, I’m afraid my strength will be forcefully raised to the Golden Bones Refinement realm!”

“Ah…” Lai Chun and Chu Xia exclaimed, “Then what should we do? Your Highness, can you expel the medicinal effects?”

Zhu Wuyang smiled bitterly. “With my strength, how can I expel such a huge amount of medicinal power? I can only endure it now. Please spread this news as soon as possible. At the same time, bring the cutleries and let the imperial physicians examine them to see what poison has been injected into the dishes.”

“This time, my strength is destined to increase by a lot. Once someone catches hold of this matter and doesn’t let go, the consequences will be unimaginable. If things don’t go well, there might be people who are jealous of talent and can be ruthless to me. You have to immediately spread this matter and let everyone know that I was framed!”

Lai Chun and Chu Xia were also panicking. When they heard Zhu Wuyang’s words, they hurriedly ran out. “Alright, alright, alright. We remember. Your Highness, you have to hold on. Don’t improve so much!”

Watching the two maidservants leave in a panic, a smile flashed across Zhu Wuyang’s face as he began to absorb a large amount of strange power transformed from the breakthrough points.

The person who drugged him this time was quite generous. The effects of the medicine were not bad. Under normal circumstances, it could at least increase Zhu Wuyang’s strength to the Mid-stage of the Golden Bones Refinement Realm.

However, in order to make himself safer, Zhu Wuyang decided that it was better to reveal the strength of a Perfected Golden Bones Refinement cultivator. This way, it would be much easier to hide his true strength.

At this moment, Zhu Wuyang’s strength was only at the Late-stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm. No, to be precise, he would be able to break through to the Perfected stage very soon.

After all, after enjoying a pile of palace delicacies with tonic medicine, Zhu Wuyang had obtained nearly 10,000 breakthrough points. Coupled with the medicine in the delicacies, Zhu Wuyang’s strength could definitely increase by another small realm.

Thinking of this, Zhu Wuyang, who had been smiling just now, immediately frowned. How long had it been since he broke through to the Late-stage of the Five Viscera Refinement realm? He was actually about to break through again.

Couldn’t the Extraordinary Encounters System let him live well? Couldn’t it let him break through a little slower? Or rather, it could increase the amount of breakthrough points needed to advance a realm.

He had always broken through so easily that Zhu Wuyang did not feel the difficulty of cultivation at all. Wasn’t it like nurturing a piece of trash who could eat and wear whatever he wanted?

Increase the difficulty of my cultivation breakthrough. Otherwise, don’t blame me for continuing to stay in my bedroom!
