How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Another senior disciple helped Master Shenji, and the five of them staggered out, looking quite unsteady...

Hmm, it's obvious he's exhausted from casting spells!

The remaining senior brother leisurely walked out of the house, closed the door behind him, and headed in a different direction.

"Your Highness, there is still one thing I do not understand."

Master Shence frowned and asked, "How is the road leading to the Crane-Riding Palace arranged? Won't it allow assassins to walk in uninhibitedly?"

"Ha, Daoist Master, you are indeed very thoughtful, but I, the Prince, have also considered this point!"

The Fifth Prince's expression grew increasingly arrogant. Although my cultivation is inferior to that of you Taoists, I am utterly superior in wisdom!

"Taoist Master, please take a look!"

The Fifth Prince stood up with a smile, walked to the side, picked up a pen and paper, and drew on it: "There are five roads leading to my Crane Riding Palace, three of which are small roads and two are main roads."

These two main roads were naturally heavily guarded to prevent those with ill intentions from sending large groups of people through.

As he spoke, the Fifth Prince drew circles on the map: "For example, here, here, and here, there are hidden sentries lying in ambush."

As for these three paths, I, the prince, will naturally not let them pass. The two on the left and right are heavily guarded, but as for the middle one, well… hehe…”

The senior brother stood at the crossroads in the middle, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

"Oh?"

Master Shence raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"

"Please look!"

The Fifth Prince explained with piercing eyes, "This place may seem to be the weakest point, but it is actually a dead end that I deliberately left behind, full of traps!"

As the senior brother stepped inside, the conversation between Daoist Shence and the Fifth Prince echoed in his mind, and he slowly followed the guidance.

"First of all, there's this ground trap. As long as you walk a few dozen steps, the ground behind you will collapse in pursuit of that person, and underneath you are countless poisoned steel needles."

"Then, is there a way to break this?"

"Of course, as long as..."

"Oh? And then what?"

"Then there's the rolling stone formation, which is also easy to break once a method is found..."

The Fifth Prince continued to explain, while the Taoist priest Shence occasionally raised questions. With the combined efforts of the two, the senior brother easily bypassed the guards and successfully entered the Crane Riding Palace.

"Then, Your Highness, what if this villain manages to undo all your previous arrangements and manages to enter the Crane-Riding Palace?"

Master Shence said with great concern, "If that's the case, wouldn't all our efforts be in vain!"

"What the Taoist priest says is absolutely right, but my Crane Riding Palace has its own secrets."

The Fifth Prince laughed heartily: "If the Taoist priest doesn't mind my rambling, you can listen to me ramble on and on."

"Oh? Please elaborate!"

"Gurgle gurgle, Wabibabu..."

The Fifth Prince casually revealed the secrets of his Crane Riding Palace. The person opposite him was Master Shence, with whom he had cooperated for many years. Their fates were intertwined, so the Fifth Prince had no intention of hiding anything.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that he is so close to Daoist Shence right now makes it incredibly easy for a Foundation Establishment expert to kill him. Why would he need to resort to any schemes or tricks?

"In conclusion, only by overcoming these obstacles can the villain obtain the real contract as evidence to expose our conspiracy."

The Fifth Prince, confident and astute, said, "But at that time, who knows how many lives he would have left?"

"I admire you!"

The senior brother looked at the contract in his hand, and the corners of his mouth turned up along with those of Daoist Shence.

"In that case, I'm relieved. He can't even fly through such a tight net!"

"You flatter me, Master. I only used a few tricks. How can they compare to your great wisdom?"

"So good!"

Master Shence stretched out his sleeves, stood up, and said with a smile, "I suppose my fellow disciples have already achieved their goal. I won't bother you any longer, so I'll take my leave now!"

"Wait a moment, Daoist!"

When the Fifth Prince heard that the matter had been accomplished, he was overjoyed. From then on, he had no more worries. It was clear that Tianmen was truly reliable!

If he ascends the throne, with the assistance of these people, wouldn't that be like adding wings to a tiger?

Thinking of the peaches, the Fifth Prince looked at the Taoist priest Shence and suddenly felt a stronger urge to win him over: "All of you Taoist priests have gone to great lengths to clear obstacles for me. If I don't make any gesture in return, I'm afraid I'll seem too stingy!"

"Oh? What do you say?"

"Master, you know that I have a treasure trove containing countless rare and precious items."

The Fifth Prince grasped the hand of the Taoist priest Shence and said with a smile, "I intend to give some of the treasures to the Taoist priests as a token of my gratitude!"

"Well……"

Master Shence subtly withdrew his hand from the Fifth Prince's grasp, then frantically rubbed his hand behind his back: "Yes, that's right. I've long heard of the Prince's treasure trove, but I've never dared to dream of it..."

"Ha, Daoist Master, that's a rather distant remark!"

The Fifth Prince waved his hand: "Between you and me, is there any need for such distinction? Daoist, please come with me. You can choose whatever you want there!"

"I admire the prince's generosity, but I still have a concern."

Master Shence's expression hardened, and he said seriously, "If some villains try to sneak into this treasure vault, wouldn't that be terrible?"

Of course, a prince's schemes must be far-reaching.

"I was just curious, haha, it was just a casual remark. If the prince doesn't wish to discuss such a private matter, that's fine too!"

"This……"

The Fifth Prince frowned. This treasure vault was unlike the contract. If the latter were exposed, he and these Taoists would be doomed. That's why he was so confident in telling them.

However, if the arrangements are revealed to the other party, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be greedy and cause trouble!

He wanted to refuse to tell them, but if he did, his plan to win them over as "best buddies who can talk about anything" would be greatly compromised.

Suddenly, the Fifth Prince recalled his father's teachings: "A true emperor is magnanimous, and those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles. Fifth Prince, if you could broaden your perspective, you would surely accomplish great things..."

Yes, how can one become emperor if one is so hesitant and timid?

Besides, the treasure vault is right there; how could he not notice if something is missing?

These Taoist priests still need to rely on his ascension to the throne to achieve their goals, so they certainly wouldn't do something that would cause them to lose more than they gain!

Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince felt his perspective suddenly broaden, and deliberately put on a nonchalant expression: "Daoist, what are you saying? It's just a simple arrangement. If you want to know, we can talk about it as we walk."

"Ha, Your Highness is truly a magnanimous man, I admire him greatly."

Master Shence bowed respectfully, his expression solemn: "Since the prince trusts us so much, I cannot let him down. As the senior disciple of the Suantian Sect, I swear that if I betray this oath, may my heart be shattered, my body be consumed by demons, and I die a horrible death!"

"You flatter me, Daoist Master! You flatter me!"

While speaking solemnly, the prince, who was "greatly shocked" only after waiting for the Taoist priest to finish making his vow, sincerely said: "With such noble character as the Taoist priest, how could I suspect that the Taoist priest would do such despicable things!"

"Ah, we must put the prince at ease..."

"You're too kind, you're too kind..."

……

Inside the Qing family's house, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the little man Hei Yang. Whether he and Hong Li could achieve financial freedom in the future depended on how capable the Fifth Prince was!

Come on, you rich dog, feel free to humiliate him with money!

……

"What?! What did you say?!"

Hongli exclaimed in surprise, "The snow pigeons here are sold out too! Are you kidding me?!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 92 A tool... cough cough, heroes always appear at crucial moments!

"I'm not saying this to be mean, but don't use the same excuse as the last one!"

Hongli's eyes widened: "You said you don't sell Snow Mountain Pigeons because it's summer, but the old ladies at the stalls are still selling popsicles, why don't you say that!"

"Ah, that..."

The saleswoman said apologetically, "Um, I'm so sorry, someone bought all the Snow Mountain Pigeons a few days ago, and we haven't been able to restock them yet..."

After all, as you know, the Snow Mountain Pigeon is already a very fierce spirit beast, and it's not so easy to catch, so please understand..."

"Then who will understand me?!"

Hongli clutched her chest, her face filled with grief and indignation: "Which flat-chested monster went on the shopping spree? Is she really that insecure about her figure?!"

"Aha?"

The salesperson was completely baffled.

"Good sister, please tell me who bought it!"

Hongli looked at the sales clerk with longing: "I really need it... uh, I mean, I really love eating Snow Mountain Pigeon!"
