My Cultivation Starting from Archery

However, a large amount of stored incense must be consumed in advance.

[Magic: Sword Qi Heaven Descends. First Rank]

[Progress: 0/1000]

[Utility: Simultaneous launch of ten swords]

Ten swords!

Chen Sansi immediately began to continue absorbing the incense mystical energy from the Xuanzhu.

Unfortunately,

the incense was gone again.

He only managed to condense five sword qi skills before he was completely drained, but that was enough.

With five sword qi skills and the Immortal Treasure Strange Fire at hand, even if he were to encounter an attack from many, he should be able to ensure his complete retreat.

The timing was just right!

Tonight was the time for action.

...

Ziwei Palace.

"Fourth brother! Something terrible has happened!"

Prince Qi, with an anxious look on his face, burst into the hall with a secret letter.

"Eighth brother, speak slowly,"

Prince Qin stood up, "What happened?"

"I just received a secret letter!"

Prince Qi pointed at the writing, "Our eldest brother is going to make a move against us in the next two days!"

"Is the information reliable?"

"It's reliable! This spy was cultivated by me, and the information he has sent in the past has always been accurate!"

"In that case, Li Gong has snuck back in?"

Prince Qin exclaimed in shock, "Are all the people on the mountain, inside and out, worthless?"

"What... what should we do?"

Prince Qi said in a panicked tone, "We don't know where Li Gong is hiding, and we don't have a Martial Saint to protect us. Why don't we just go to our father's sleeping chamber to hide? We can take this secret letter and report the matter to him!"

"Without evidence, our father won't bother,"

Prince Qin calmed himself and analyzed, "Our father is inherently suspicious. If we are too aggressive, it might make him think we are trying to create discord. No, he probably already thinks that!"

"Fourth brother..."

Prince Qi spoke with a worried frown, "What should we do? Should we find General Meng to come over?"

"No!"

Prince Qin's eyes gradually turned fierce, "If he can be so ruthless, he can't blame me for being unrighteous!"

"Oh?"

Prince Qi lowered his voice, "Fourth brother, are you planning to... won't the risk be too great?"

"The Crown Prince has been plagued with illness. Recently, he was attacked by the residual force of a martial artist's assault and then relieved of his Supervisor duties. With these two events combined, his condition worsened due to anger, and if an acute illness were to fatally strike, wouldn't it seem reasonable!"

Prince Qin said, "The Imperial Guard responsible for watching over him is our man. Call a few Imperial Physicians to act swiftly so that we can settle everything before he becomes desperate enough to fight back!"

"Alright, I'll follow your lead, fourth brother!"

"Eighth brother! After this succeeds, we shall share the world together!"

...

The Crown Prince's sleeping chamber.

Inside and outside the sleeping chamber, the doors were locked.

Armored Imperial Guards with sharp weapons patrolled closely, ostensibly for protection, but in fact for strict surveillance.

Supported by a cane, the Crown Prince stood in the courtyard looking up at the stars. As a cool breeze blew by, he could not help but cough violently.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

"Master, please drink your medicine quickly," urged the only old eunuch in the sleeping chamber, chasing after him with a steaming decoction, "You must take good care of yourself."

The Crown Prince paid no attention to them, instead asking, "Is everything arranged properly?"

"Please rest assured, Your Highness."

The old eunuch said, "With Master Yao handling matters, how can Your Highness still be worried? Plus, now a great number of our people are in place inside and out. Once the action starts, success will come as easily as smashing bamboo, and all will be settled by dawn.

"That's why I say, Your Highness, you still shoulder the burden of our Great Sheng Dynasty's capital and thirty-six states; you absolutely must not collapse. You should quickly drink your medicine."

"Give it to me."

Only then did the Crown Prince shakily take the bowl with his trembling hands.

"Sigh~"

The old eunuch carefully attended to him, "Your Highness, this illness of yours is very strange. Despite years of treatment and so many treasure medicines, why doesn't it get any better..."

"Rustle rustle——"

Amidst the conversation between master and servant,

suddenly, a clamor erupted outside, but it quickly subsided.

"This..."

The old eunuch faltered, "Could it be that they've started the action prematurely?"

"No, that's not right!"

The Crown Prince's expression became grave, "It's not Old Yao and the others!"

"Buzz!"

The doors to the sleeping quarters were pushed open.

Seven or eight people rushed into the courtyard. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire

The one leading them,

was none other than the broad and portly Fourth Prince, Prince Qin, at his side, the long-bearded Eighth Prince, Prince Qi.

Following them

were three imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital and two attendants.

"Fourth brother, Eighth brother."

The Crown Prince propped himself up with his cane, "What brings you here?"

"We've naturally come to visit our big brother!"

Prince Qin said with concerned, "Hearing that big brother's illness had suddenly worsened, I came over with Doctor She and others to take a look. We even brought a treasure medicine that is said to cure all diseases."

"Princes, please go back."

The old eunuch stood in front of the Crown Prince, speaking warily, "The Crown Prince has just taken his medicine. And for the princes to burst in without so much as a greeting, isn't that somewhat inappropriate?"

"You lowly slave!"

Prince Qi scolded loudly, "Do we need to announce ourselves when visiting our own big brother? Who are you, you scum, to speak to me this way?!"

"You, you..."

The old eunuch could tell something was amiss, and as a show of force warned, "Princes, if you do not leave, do not blame me for being impolite."

"Boom!"

At that moment,

the few imperial physicians standing behind Prince Qin and Prince Qi surprisingly made their move.

Among them was even a master of the Xuanxiang Realm!

They quickly subdued the old eunuch and started pouring medicine down his throat.

"Doctor She!"

The Crown Prince pointed at the imperial physician, "You, how dare you do this!"

"Hahaha!"

Prince Qin laughed coldly, "Big brother, did you ever wonder why, all these years, not only is your illness not healed, but it's actually getting worse?"

"Fourth brother, Eighth brother!"

The Crown Prince's voice trembled, "Although we do not share the same mother, we are still of our father's bone blood. How can you two be so vicious?"

"Big brother! Your younger brother just thought you looked too tired and should get some good rest."

"What are you waiting for? Why not hurry up and attend to the Crown Prince taking his medicine?"
