Don't worry, I'm safe, your son. If it wasn't for anything else, it was for the Pill, and your highness wouldn't let me be injured. Lu Chen said with certainty.

In the face of Lu Zhan's fatherly love, Lu Chen's heart was very warm. He knew that the reason Lu Zhan kept asking this question was because he was afraid that Lu Zhan would harm him. But he also had his own considerations, and some things could not be said.

For example, how could Lu Chen explain the existence of the system? With so many Pill, only a Pill Master would have the chance to have one.

But even if they could not bear to take it out and use it, there were still two sides to it. Moreover, Lu Chen himself was a famous Good-for-nothing, so even a single person would look down on him.

He did not have the talent to refine pills, so how could he know a pill master? Taking out so many Pill was already suspicious.

In the face of the Second Prince, he could still play around with them, but in the face of Lu Zhan, Lu Chen had no confidence at all. Lu Zhan knew that there were some things that no one else knew.

As a good father who was always concerned about his son, Lu Zhan knew everything about the original owner.

If Lu Chen tried to fool Lu Zhan right now, it would be impossible for him to succeed.

After all, he was not the original owner. There were differences in personality and people could ignore these different places, but as a father, Lu Zhan would definitely not ignore it.

As the saying goes, it's more wrong to say, it's not good to say. A lie requires hundreds or even more of lies to make up for it, so Lu Chen decided to just say nothing.

Besides, he also had the confidence to guarantee his own safety. Right now, the situation within the capital was changing, and the battle for the throne between the Second Prince and the Second Prince had already reached the climax.

Just a small change in direction was enough to change the situation. For example, the Second Prince was currently attracting more people's attention due to Lu Chen's Pill.

The most important thing was that many large families and families started to pay attention to the Second Prince.

Even the First Prince only received the support of a few families, which was also the reason why the First Prince held the upper hand in the battle for the throne.

In this world, strength was respected. Any method that could increase one's strength was something that people sought after and even paid attention to.

Second Prince now had Pill s that could enhance his strength. It was fine at the start, but few knew, few used, and there were even rumors slandering him.

Now it had been confirmed that the Pill of the Second Prince was useful, although it was just a few ordinary Pill that increased their strength, in the eyes of the aristocratic families.

However, there were too few and too few. High-leveled cultivators came from low levels, and in this world, the majority were low-leveled cultivators.

Most people might not care about this kind of power, but as aristocratic families, they had been educated since young. They all knew what kind of power low-level cultivators possessed.

It was just like someone who was able to overturn a boat. These low level practitioners would possess a frightening strength once they gathered together and grew.

Even aristocratic families could be subverted. This kind of colossus was normally secretive, but at certain times, it played a crucial role.

Furthermore, there was competition among the aristocratic families. Every clan had a few Good-for-nothing s, and their status was very high. They also needed the Pill s from the Second Prince.

After all, the resources were limited, every family cultivated their elites, and those Good-for-nothing s were more or less ignored.

No matter how high their status was, in this world where strength was paramount, people were not respected. Only they themselves knew of the humiliation they had suffered.

Now, other than obtaining the resources they needed from the clan, the Second Prince also had them, and that was an additional path.

Ordinary people, aristocratic families and other powers were all interested in the Second Prince because the Pill was the key to fighting for the throne.

He had to ensure Lu Chen's safety, so even though Lu Chen accepted his concern, he still had his own thoughts.

After thinking through all these, Lu Chen's back became even straighter and more confident. Lu Zhan saw all of these, but he was worried.

Now that he knew that the Pill was related to him, Lu Zhan was even more worried. His heart was beating extremely fast.

He frowned without any worry, just like an ordinary family's father. He no longer had the calmness of a cultivator.

However …

Lu Zhan wanted to say something, but right at this moment, Lu Chen interrupted him.

Father! Your son knows it all by himself. Moreover, if I wasn't your son, how could you have guessed that these things were related to me when you were so concerned about me and familiar with me? I'm a good-for-nothing, a good-for-nothing of the capital …

With that, Lu Chen revealed a meaningful smile. His entire body shook, spirit energy circulated and he released a faint pressure, although it was incomparable to Lu Zhan's.

But when Lu Zhan looked at Lu Chen, his eyes lit up. Damn, did my son's strength increase? Mid Xiantian realm? When did it increase?

In his shock, Lu Zhan did not realize that. As he thought about it, he spoke his mind.

The increase in his strength had scared his lucky father. Lu Chen expressed his happiness and laughed: Last night.

As Lu Chen was overjoyed, so was he. But when he heard the words he said last night, his face darkened.

He had gone to the broken temple last night, and he knew what the broken temple looked like. It was already in ruins, the broken bricks almost turned to dust.

Although there were no signs of spirit energy fluctuations or blood stains, Lu Zhan could still imagine what kind of battles had happened there.

When he thought about how Lu Chen came in from the door this morning, he naturally knew that this brat must not have slept at home last night. That broken temple must have had something to do with him!

Determined, Lu Zhan's face became gloomy: You stinking brat, you went to the ruined temple last night!

How do you know?

Lu Chen asked in shock, his eyes opened wide, somewhat dumbfounded, and he thought about everything that had happened since he entered the house today.

Lu Chen finally noticed something amiss. For example, why would Lu Zhan greet him in the morning with a worried look?

Furthermore, why would I guess that the Pill has something to do with me? Now I'm guessing that I've been to a run-down temple...

As he thought about it, Lu Chen looked at Lu Zhan with probing eyes, and asked: "Father, how did you know?"

The meaning behind his words was, how did you know that I had been to this broken temple before? Lu Zhan rolled his eyes at Lu Chen's words.
