"What do you suggest from this? And how do I know that after this gesture of mine you will support me whole-heartedly?" Zhao Ying narrowed his eyes against Zhang Wu Ji as he speaks his suspicion in this matter. It was normal in the subject of trust between two people, especially when they only know each other for a single day.
"My prince, Wu Ji have no suggestion on how he can convince a person to trust him, but may I be daring enough to mention about this? Do my prince think that without your support, I will fail in my plan to control the whole Seven Star County?" Zhang Wu Ji did not try to convince Zhao Ying, but instead, asking him another question.
"You!" Zhao Ying is speechless! Even a fool can guess what Zhang Wu Ji wanted to say!
This is because Zhang Wu Ji doesn't need the Ninth Prince's support to achieve what he wanted to do! The only thing he's suggesting something like this is to speed up the process instead of wasting more time to plan his steps! Zhao Ying's approach to him wasn't a significant factor he has to consider!
"Wu Ji afraid that I will have to mention this matter as well. I never agreed to become your subordinate in the first place. Even if the cooperation between us started, it should be a partnership and not complete authority. I believe, with my ability in establishing this Apprentice Hall, my word is convincing enough for my prince to understand." he added.
Zhang Wu Ji's next sentence forced Zhao Ying to accept the fact he wasn't too influential to disrupt anything at this moment. In fact, Zhang Wu Ji's current position is far more influential than Zhao Ying from many different points of view.
Furthermore, the Ninth Prince is only an Inner Qi Warrior in his 18th Stage, where compared to his eight other royal brother and sisters, most of them are either in their Inner Qi Master Stage, with his two eldest Royal Brothers in their Inner Qi Lord Stage.
And if this cooperation between the two of them began, will the faction supporting his second royal brother, also the culprit that injured his master before the Counties Gathering stopped them from threatening their lord? Worst of all, this second royal brother of Zhao Ying is the biggest supporter of all the action behind Upper South Merchant Corporation and Jie's Clan!
Zhao Ying knows this fact. After considering it, he decided to share this news with Zhang Wu Ji to explain his initial impression towards the Seven Star County. After he shared the information with Zhang Wu Ji, the master senior did not react as he expected.
"So... The culprit is actually Second Prince of the Kingdom... This makes everything easier to manage. If that's the case, I will temporarily agree to cooperate. All I ask in the future is only two request."
"First of all, if we managed to get the position of the Crown Prince, I want to handle the second prince privately." Zhang Wu Ji stated his first request for his cooperation with the Ninth Prince.
"Granted. Having people to handle these loose end like family members is better than doing personally." Zhao Ying agreed with the first request without the need of consideration.
"As for the second request. I want to swallow the whole Southern State myself. Seven Star Sect will be the main sect for the southern state, with us being the person in charge to manage the smaller establishments. And at that time, let's agree with the yearly tributes at that time." he completed the detail of his second request.
"Granted as well. This request is similar to most of the people recruited by my other royal brother and sisters. In this southern State, the second, ninth, and eleventh royal princes are focusing on strengthening our support here."
"I believe that based on my eleventh brother's background and Fourth Royal Concubine, he will receive the full support from all counties in the Middle Southern State. I'm sure my second royal brother will focus on this Upper Southern State because of the close proximity to the Imperial County."
"So, will you help me in my path to obtain the position of the crown prince?" Zhao Ying questioned the master senior for the last time.
"Yes," he answered.
"Great. As for now, let me grant you with my Prince Token to assist you in your approach. With that token in your hand, I believe most of the faction will retreat." Zhao Ying mentioned the benefits of holding that piece of Ninth Prince Token.
"My prince, can you share with Wu Ji where you're heading next?" Zhang Wu Ji cupped his hand together as he questioned his partner.
"Heavenly Sword Sect, Black City Armored Forces, and then returning to the capital." Zhao Ying replied.
"Then I will bother my prince no longer. Please Expect the Seven Star County to bear the flag of the ninth prince before the end of this year!" Zhang Wu Ji said.
After the conversation, each of them went towards their own way.

"Ou!!!" the Silver Horn Bear is wandering around.
It was only a simple nap! How can his master go missing without him noticing? Even the gigantic Iron bird vanishes, leaving him alone in this Ma Hua City.
The Silver Horn Bear continued to wander until he remembered something.
"The home is on the Southwestern of this continent, as long I follow that direction, I will reach home! Master, I'm coming back to look for you!" the Silver Horn Bear charged into the forest according to its sense of direction in hope to reach home earlier.
"ROAR?"
"Why did that big group of human is surrounding the two female humans? The two female humans look familiar? Her hand, her hair, she's lady cooked meat! And she! She's the one with fish! They are masters! What you all want to do? Don't spoil my food source!"
Armed with the intention to protect his food source, Xiao Xiong charged into the group of bandits and attacked them. Although the group of bandits is armed, it does not mean they're ready to fight against a Warrior Tier Wild Beast like Silver Horn Bear.
"ROAR!!!" the loud roar pierced the ears of everyone including a few Silver Carapace Bees from afar. But none of them realized that the meaning behind that roar.
"FOOD!" that's what its mean.

Far from where the fight starts, Zhang Wu Ji decided to put a few hours of his time to do something else. Inside his workshop is another stack of nicely cut wood plates that ready for him to engrave them into the Wooden Universal Plate.
"Master Senior! Master Senior!" it was calm during his effort to engrave the plates. But after fifty pieces of them are completed, a shout came into his workshop like a routine. The usual member with the loud voice came again with his report.
"Alright... Stop shouting. What happened?" It was annoying. That is especially true for somebody that needed the calmness like himself.
"The Silver Carapace Bee Queen is crying. Some of the members with Beast Taming Background says it was a cry to call for her master. Which is why I come and report it as urgent matter!" the member reported everything happened in the square.
"Quickly, let's go to the square!" without wasting his time, Zhang Wu Ji rushed to the square to see what happened. But the moment he arrived, the bees came to his side to support their master's flight and took their master outside from the Apprentice Hall.
Zhang Wu Ji knows that the bees must have found his senior sisters and quickly left a word to the others to tell the other Master Seniors to relax. As for himself, he will be headed to that place to see what can he do. Although the group of Silver Carapace Bees is strong enough to handle the situation, he must attend this matter personally to see if his suspicion is correct.
Flying for almost two hours, they reach the forest where the group of bandits is hiding. But he did not expect that their location is very close to the Ma Hua Town! He just went past this location earlier through his Iron Kong-Que!
What's more surprising is that the Silver Horn Bear is here! How come the bear is earlier than him to come here? "Didn't this guy stays inside the Iron Kong-Que and sleeping?" Zhang Wu Ji whispered inside his mind as they started to land.
"Damn bear, how come you're here?" Zhang Wu Ji asked.
"ROAR!" (You left me back in the town, master!)
"Aren't you sleeping inside the Iron Kong-Que? Where did you go out?"
"ROROROAR!! ROAR!" (I went into the town with you, Master! Then you call me back after you went into the building!)
"Well... It's good you're here... Hahaha..." Zhang Wu Ji finally remembered that after the bear replied him through its action and language. He did forget to bring this guy back with him when he left. But at the same time, he smiled as this mistake bring them together in saving his fifth and sixth senior sisters.
"Fifth senior sister, sixth senior sister, do they do anything on you?" Zhang Wu Ji transferred some Inner Qi into them to recover their body. As it was enhanced by the Long Mu's Blessing Stance, they help in speeding up their recovery from all exhaustion.
Among the nine of them, only, the fifth, sixth, eighth, and Zhang Wu Ji himself yet to enter the 11th Stage of Inner Qi Warrior strength. This is also why his healing ability still works. Else, he will have to apply the Nourishment Art instead.
"We're fine, but Master! He's in danger!" the sixth senior sister, Lin Mao Dan, grabbed Zhang Wu Ji's wrist and said.
"Yes! The bandits are planning to have master killed inside the Wen Qing City! The Jie's Clan, Upper South Mercenary, and Golden Wolf Syndicate are always ready to lure our master into Wen Qing City so Yang Chen Kun can kill him!" Liu Su Mei said.
"What? Then we have to get there as soon as possible! At this moment, the nine of us are not by his side, so Master is like a sitting duck under the watchful eyes of the other Inner Qi Lord inside the Wen Qing City!" Zhang Wu Ji felt the seriousness of this matter, but he did not have his Iron Kong-Que with him!
Because he was out here in a rush, the Silver Carapace Bees is flying him instead of the Iron Kong-Que!
"Hahaha! No wonder Elder Jie Hu requested me to make sure I stay here and wait for the bigger fish to come here! It was like he said, you're a target worth killing my time!" laughter came from above and pierced their ears. When this mysterious person descended from above them, it reveals a middle-aged man in his forties with two swords on his back.
He was dressed in a thick vest in black color. Six pieces of Spatial Stone is hanged around his waist, with his feature of a bald man with a sword scar.
"Bald Eagle! You're the assassins wanted in three different counties! I recognize you from the twin Eagle Talon Sword on your back!" As the more knowledgeable among the three of them, Liu Su Mei immediately identified their opponent.
"Hahaha, no wonder they say I'm good looking. Even such a beautiful lady from Seven Star Sect know my name. No worries, when I'm done with your junior brother, I will make sure to feed both of you full with a rigorous session of sex." Bald Eagle added as he looks at the two sisters with his pair of lustful eyes.
"Rascal!" Liu Su Mei covered her body and pulled her junior sister behind her. But Zhang Wu Ji did not have the same attitude as his senior sisters. He purposely flashed the Onyx-Class Spatial Ring in his hand to cause the jealousy from Bald Eagle and prepare to make his move.
"Finally... Some worthy opponent for me to play all out with him." Zhang Wu Ji looks at Bald Eagle and withdraws a lousy sword he robbed from the Jie's Forging Factory. The sword wasn't threatening, but the user is.
Because when Zhang Wu Ji simply swings his sword nearby, air blades did not form, but they were transformed.
Standing before the Master Senior is seven Fighter Qi wolves that were hundred times fiercer than his previous aimless Air Blades!
