Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Cai Guo was left speechless. He did not know how to counter that.

“You know I am right. I need to meet every single prince that is up for grabs. Please tell me we have something good to offer them. The Hong family treasury must have something that can interest them.” Liu Feng said.

“Greed can cause a few of them to turn, yes, Young Noble. But the level headed ones, who are usually the ones with more than one Soul Evolution Stage experts in their ranks, are those who do not dare just choose a side without weighing the consequences. Those who win this war will not just be on the king’s favor. They will be splitting up the spoils of families altogether. Everywhere they go, people will bow to them and offer them gifts. In the long run, the intelligent one will choose the one they believe will have the biggest chance of winning.” Cai Guo said.

“And we know that we will win, family head. So why are we not going there and talking to the princes directly?” Liu Feng asked.

“Forgive me, Young Noble. I should have asked you before I sent those people.” Cai Guo bent down asking for forgiveness.

“Where do we go next? Who do we meet next?” Liu Feng asked.

“And does the succession war start immediately? If we go to the crown prince all of a sudden, and start fighting, is that valid? Or should there be a predetermined date? What are the specifics? And when the Xiantian realm experts are fighting, will the Soul Evolution Stage experts be fighting simulatenously? Just what is the whole situation like, Family head? You have not answered all of my questions yet.” Liu Feng asked.

“Yes, Young Noble. There will be a predetermined date when the fight will happen. An envoy from one side will go to the other. But since the situation is a little different here, I think that we will not have any stake in the matter. The palace will choose for us.”

“And the war itself will be exactly like you said. The Soul Evolution Stage experts above and everyone else below. It will not be a fight like the one in the Hong family.” Cai Guo said.

“I wonder why the fight even went like that. I mean thousands of cultivators just stayed in their homes hoping their family head and elders would fix things instead of coming out to fight. How did that work? I thought that they would come out and fight against us, the pests they are.” Liu Feng said out loud.

They looked outside the windows together, looking at the family disciples who were walking around, talking to each other. It was the calm before the storm. These people had no idea what went down in the Hong family. They were not there.

But for this fight that was coming, they needed to be there for that fight. This was the last bit of peace that they were going to get, and they knew it as well. Deep within those eyes of these disciples, there was a hint of fear and unpreparedness. No one was ready for the war that was coming. It was unpredictable, and these kids didn’t ever go to war before.

“Well then. Let us get going then. What are we waiting for. To the imperial palace, I suppose? That is where the princes stay, don’t they?” Liu Feng asked.

“That is where they grew up, and that is where they were supposed to stay, but that is not where they are right now. The princes will not dare stay in the imperial palace at this time. They need to socialize, get allies, and the imperial palace is a closed off place that does not allow that to happen.” Cai Guo said.

“You know who the stupid princes are and who the intelligent ones are. Then why should we waste time on those that we can just bribe off? Send envoys to those people, and call of the envoys on all of the good princes. Which one has the most power after the crown prince? Who has the most Soul Evolution Stage cultivators?” Liu Feng asked.

“The seventh prince. With two Soul Evolution Stage cultivators and the support of the True Martial sect, he has the strongest support. And those from the True Martial sect-”

“Are true battle fanatics. I am well aware of this.” Liu Feng nodded. After all, he was all too aware of the type of people that went to this sect. Du Xiangling was also in this sect, and he was just that. A giant battle fanatic. And getting someone like that on his side would only be helpful.

“Then that is the right person that we need to talk to. We need his help.” Liu Feng nodded.

“We shall go there immediately then, Young Noble. But it is a small distance away.” Cai Guo said.

“Is he in the True Martial Sect? I mean, that would make sense. He had to prepare for what was to come, and it was better to stay in the company of those he trusted right?” Liu Feng asked.

“No, Young Noble. The seventh prince has decided to stay in the capital. He is in the True Martial sect, in a way. But he is not in the sect all the way in the Dujin Ridge. Instead, he is in the courtyard that the True Martial Sect owns within the Capital.” Cai Guo said.

“That is right! How could I forget that each and every single one of them is a big sect and would have a courtyard or some land here?” Liu Feng suddenly realized.

“Wait! If the True Martial Sect has some place here, then surely, the Sky Heavens sect will also have a place here right? They might be there.” Liu Feng asked.

“Who might be there? The sect leader? Taking their help would be helpful.” Cai Guo nodded.

“No. Now that the succession war is about to take place, I am sure that those three are preoccupied right now.” he shook his head.
