He doesn’t need to run away, he just needs to send a ssage outside the ship, which should be much easier.
After a quiet half-day in the yard, Chief Steward Shen suddenly ca to visit.
"Shen, co out and take your Spirit Beast at."
When Shen Wang heard, he walked out and saw a eunuch at the door holding a large piece of leg at, sowhat resembling a cow leg, but significantly larger, with one leg weighing two hundred pounds.
He rembered the Sixth Prince saying it was a hundred pounds and was a bit surprised: "Chief Steward Shen, is it this much?"
"Bones are not counted, and I can’t be bothered to divide it further. Just take it, there won’t be any trouble for you because of this."
Chief Steward Shen said indifferently.
"As expected of my kin, thank you, Chief Steward."
Shen Wang smiled. Despite people saying Chief Steward Shen was cold, he always acted on orders and did not deliberately make trouble like Yellow dicine and Profound dicine.
"Make the best of your situation. Selling blood won’t earn much respect on this ship."
Chief Steward Shen said aningfully and then turned to leave.
Shen Wang accepted the leg at and asked the accompanying eunuch: "Brother, what Spirit Beast is this at from?"
"A wild ox, rely has Spirit Beast lineage."
The accompanying eunuch answered casually: "From now on, I’ll be the one delivering Spirit Beast at to you."
"Thank you."
Shen Wang sent off the eunuch, inspected the leg at, confird it was fresh, and understood that Chief Steward Shen had no interest in targeting him.
Taking the leg at to a specially set kitchen, Rose was simring porridge. Seeing the foreleg at in Shen Wang’s hand, she exclaid with delight: "Wild ox foreleg at, such a big piece, let’s cook it for you right away."
"No need, I’ll do it. Let show you so skills."
Shen Wang smiled: "Today, we’ll have atball dishes."
"Ah, you’re going to cook?"
Rose was stunned, she hadn’t heard of any man with cultivation willing to cook.
"Why not?"
Shen Wang chuckled, walked over and began processing the leg at.
His saber technique was superb, quickly separating the at and making minced at from part of it, starting to make atballs and braised lion’s head dishes.
Seeing Rose staring blankly on the side, her red lips agape, he smiled slightly: "Go call the other ladies, we’ll dine together tonight."
"Okay, okay, you’re amazing!"
Stars seed to glimr in Rose’s eyes, like she had found a treasure.
She hurried to inform the other sisters, who, upon hearing that Shen Wang was cooking for them, were sowhat incredulous.
"He’s truly not an ordinary man."
"A good man willing to cook for us, I never dared dream of such before."
"He’s incredible, I can’t believe it."
The ladies had never encountered this treatnt, and during dinner, each had red eyes, and so who recalled their lonely struggles were even brought to tears.
Shen Wang found it laughable yet touching, and could only comfort them one by one until all eight won smiled.
One al, and the eight won wholeheartedly embraced Shen Wang, with the passionate Rose even expressing willingness to die for him.
That evening, he sensed their fervent emotions, feeling overwheld for the first ti.
The next day, Shen Wang ca alone to the edge of the ship.
He noticed the Day-Traveling Dragon Ship had moved, arriving at a hilly area, likely still near Xi Province.
"Boy, you’re still a convict, who allowed you here, planning to escape?"
While Shen Wang pondered how to safely distance himself to contact Zheng Yunshu, a voice filled with malice sounded behind him.
Without turning, Shen Wang could envision Yellow dicine’s malicious expression.
Shen Wang walked over: "Whether I am guilty is not for you to decide, and whether I plan to escape is not for you to guess."
"Still dare to argue, I think you’re planning to escape!"
Yellow dicine sneered, continuing to provoke Shen Wang.
Shen Wang initially planned to act, but noticing the other’s attitude, grew wary and refrained: "Are you being botherso because your balls hurt? If so, go ask Chief Steward Shen to cut them off, so they won’t hurt."
"You dare insult ?"
Yellow dicine’s face looked grim: "What right do you, a lowly servant, have to insult ?"
"We’re both servants, why act high and mighty? You’re nothing, just out here to annoy people."
Shen Wang was indeed unafraid of quarreling.
"Outrageous!"
Usually working for the Sixth Prince, Yellow dicine was not used to insults. Infuriated, his eyes glead fiercely, and he leapt to slap Shen Wang.
He too had Foundation Establishnt cultivation, and was at the late stage, but unfortunately, rarely fought, his attack posture exceedingly sluggish before Shen Wang.
Shen Wang raised his leg, swiftly springing up, kicking Yellow dicine in the chest ahead of ti, with a muffled thud and a cracking sound accompanying. Yellow dicine flew out like a rag, crashing into a wall several ters away.
Had it been a normal wall, it would surely have collapsed from such a collision. But this wall released a circle of radiance, indestructible, bouncing back Yellow dicine, making him cough blood.
He let out a miserable cry: "You dare kick ! Insulting your superior, courting death!"
Shen Wang glanced at the array revealed by the radiance, indeed impressive.
"There’s no superior-subordinate relationship between us; my superior is only His Highness. If you’re unhappy, continue. See if I’ll hold back."
Shen Wang sneered, such a wretched being must be dealt with severely, or he’d just keep pushing.
Yellow dicine was kicked by Shen Wang and was truly afraid to act, but he blustered, "You and I are two ranks apart. Isn’t this a case of the lower bullying the higher? Just wait until I report to His Highness, let’s see if he doesn’t whip you to death."
"Go ahead, let’s see who gets whipped."
Shen Wang really wasn’t afraid. If Song Huirui was going to give him trouble over such a trivial matter, then that prince’s status was worthless.
Honestly, how could soone like Song Huirui bother with such trifles?
Seeing that he couldn’t intimidate Shen Wang, Yellow dicine could only grit his teeth and say, "Just wait and see!"
He clutched his broken ribbed chest and limped away. Throughout, the surrounding guards said nothing, pretending not to see.
Shen Wang seeing this, rely let out a cold laugh, turned around, and walked back.
After Yellow dicine tried to trouble Shen Wang but failed, no waves were stirred, and the next day, even a Blood Supplent Pill from Song Huirui was delivered.
Shen Wang knew that this person would surely wait for an opportunity but didn’t care; he continued eating, drinking, sleeping with won, and dual cultivating as he pleased.
He also secretly observed the situation on the Day-Traveling Dragon Ship and noticed it stopped again after five days.
Twelve days later, a pillar of azure light shot into the sky, and Shen Wang went outside without slling any dicinal fragrance.
He exhaled a sigh of relief, "It should have been successful, and there shouldn’t be any blood extractions in the short term."
Helplessly pondering, Shen Wang heard the hearty laughter of the Sixth Prince coming from the main hall.
"Haha, refining a Sixth Grade Elixir for the second ti; I wonder who else will doubt my abilities now."
The Sixth Prince’s voice echoed throughout the great ship, clearly very pleased.
Before long, Chief Steward Shen appeared at the door.
Shen Wang stepped out, and the other laughed, "You’re in luck. With this successful pill refining, His Highness has credited you for service; co with to receive your reward."
Inside the grand hall, a pill glowing with blue light floated in Song Huirui’s hand as he ticulously observed it, summing up the current success’s experience.
He confird the success this ti was largely due to using more Longevity Blood as a catalyst, harmonizing the conflicting dicinal forces.
Seeing Shen Wang salute, he carefully put away the pill and said, "Shen Wang, your blood greatly helped this prince. Speak, what reward do you desire?"
"I wish to follow His Highness to study alchemy and also wish to venture out," Shen Wang unceremoniously requested; the forr to integrate alchemy experience given by the system and the latter to broaden his range of activities, making it easier to contact his family.
These words changed the expressions of the Four Great dicine Boys, making them look grim.
Shen Wang’s first request directly encroached on their resources. How could they stay calm?
"Haha, you’re quite bold. Do you know how many people wish to study alchemy with this prince?"
The Sixth Prince chuckled lightly.
"Precisely because the opportunity to study alchemy with Your Highness is so precious, I wish to give it a try."
Shen Wang replied, "If Your Highness is unwilling, please allow to go out to earn military rit as a token of appreciation for Your Highness’s recognition."
"Haha, you really know how to talk."
The Sixth Prince smiled with narrowing eyes, "I permit you to observe during alchemical processes, and you may occasionally participate in missions with the Demon Suppression Departnt. However, don’t even think of running away. With the Sun God-Banning Curse within you, even if you fled thousands of miles away, I could make your soul disperse!"
Hearing this, Shen Wang’s heart tensed, and he hastily shook his head, "I wouldn’t dare. Working for Your Highness is an honored wish of mine, and there’s no chance I would run."
"It’s good you understand. You may leave now."
Song Huirui dismissed Shen Wang.
After his departure, Yellow dicine bowed, "Your Highness, this man doesn’t know the imnsity of the heavens and earth; he has no alchemy skills whatsoever. There’s no point in rewarding him even if he stands by."
"Are you questioning this prince’s decision?" The previously smiling Song Huirui’s expression turned icy cold in an instant.
"I wouldn’t dare."
Yellow dicine imdiately didn’t dare to speak.
The Sixth Prince coldly said, "Allowing him to observe is also to examine his bloodline. Are your insights truly so lacking?"
Yellow dicine, frigid as a cicada, quickly praised the Sixth Prince, reproaching himself as foolish.
"Chief Steward Shen."
The Sixth Prince called Chief Steward Shen over, "With this pill success, there aren’t enough top-grade materials to continue refining in the short term. It’s said that the Jade Silkworm Valley not far from here has plenty of herbs. Since we want to tidy up that place known to not heed orders, let us take the opportunity to suppress it."
"Yes, I’ll arrange the manpower now."
Chief Steward Shen received the order.
"That woman Molan’s alchemy skills are decent. Invite her over to exchange skills then."
The Sixth Prince spoke expressionlessly.
"That woman specializes in Gu poison; Your Highness must be cautious."
Chief Steward Shen advised.
"Humph, my family’s Great Sun Divine Skill can incinerate all poisons and Gu; I refuse to believe she can ambush ."
The Sixth Prince proudly stated, "If they don’t know their place, Jade Silkworm Valley won’t be spared."
"Your Highness, please don’t be impatient. The Celestial Travel Sect isn’t settled yet, so it’s currently unwise to divert focus elsewhere," Chief Steward Shen earnestly replied.
"Indeed, expedite their situation over there; we can’t let certain people in the Imperial City laugh at us."
The Sixth Prince nodded.
"Understood."
Chief Steward Shen saluted and swiftly vanished.
Upon returning to the courtyard, Shen Wang shared the good news with the eight won who cared for him, sparking a burst of joy and laughter.
Afterward, rather than receiving an opportunity to observe alchemy, he was called over by Chief Steward Shen three days later.
