The battle for the throne in Kowloon starts with the steady prince

Chapter 84 Don't miss out! (Seeking monthly votes and continued reading)

Yunzhou, the Imperial Palace.

Led by Xiao Dashan, Qin Changge arrived at the newly established "Royal Armory".

Inside the Royal Armory, there are three side rooms. The first side room contains various low-level inheritances, which can only be cultivated to a certain level of combat power. Qin Changge didn't even glance at them.

Qin Changge entered the second room, where he found a legacy that allowed him to cultivate to the fourth rank of combat power, which was already quite precious.

"Music, chess, calligraphy, painting..."

Qin Changge covered his face, somewhat helpless. These inheritances were all rather obscure, like chicken ribs—tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away.

Qin Changge wasn't too disappointed. After all, it was a hastily put-together group, and the Yunzhou Gang members weren't stupid; they wouldn't hand over their most valuable possessions.

"Hopefully, the higher-level inheritances will contain some good stuff."

Qin Changge rubbed his hands together and continued walking to the next room. Since the Yunzhou Gang was willing to put on an act, they certainly wouldn't be completely empty-handed.

Entering the last room, Qin Changge looked at the twelve sets of high-level inheritances.

"Making talismans, forging weapons, refining pills, setting up formations, knives, spears, swords, clubs, medicine, poison, feng shui, divination."

Qin Changge's face showed disbelief. "These are all top-tier inheritances! The Yunzhou Gang is really going all out."

Qin Changge immediately picked up the jade slip for making talismans, refined it, and then rolled his eyes in exasperation.

"He could only cultivate up to the eighth level. He was holding back in the end," Qin Changge shrugged, with an expression that said, "I knew it."

The cultivation levels for secondary professions range from Tier 1 to Tier 2, Tier 3, and so on up to Tier 9.

The levels of cultivation realm range from the ninth rank to the eighth rank, to the seventh rank, and so on up to the first rank, and finally to the transcendental ascension.

The high-level inheritances here are currently at the first to eighth level, not the ninth level.

In other words, Qin Changge did not obtain the complete inheritance, which is understandable.

Theoretically speaking, the ability to cultivate a secondary profession from the first to the ninth level can create a family or sect.

It's something extremely precious!
The fact that the Yunzhou Gang can produce twelve sets of inheritances in one go, almost complete sets, is already quite a show of respect.

"Since it's free anyway, might as well take it," Qin Changge began to refine the jade slips.

I'll keep it in mind; whether I want to practice it later is another matter.

Even if you don't cultivate it, you can keep it to exchange for money.

Seeing this, Xiao Dashan was a little envious. "Your Majesty, I also want to inherit a sword technique."

Qin Changge casually passed on his sword technique, which could be cultivated to the second rank, to Xiao Dashan.

"Anyone who didn't know better would think I couldn't afford it. I'll make a copy of every inheritance. I said it!" Qin Changge said domineeringly.

Xiao Dashan nodded excitedly, "Okay."

Immediately afterwards, Qin Changge walked to the "Royal Treasury" next door with great anticipation.

The Royal Armory has already given Qin Changge too many surprises; it's just unknown how much more joy this Royal Treasury can bring him.

……

Royal Treasury.

When Qin Changge opened the door, he was dazzled by what he saw; the room was filled with all sorts of treasures.

"This……"

Qin Changge swallowed hard. "These guys are so rich they're practically rolling in money. Even a tiny bit of it leaking out from between their fingers is enough to stun me."

Xiao Dashan nodded as well.

The powerful figures of the Yunzhou Gang, having operated in Yunzhou for many years, were indeed incredibly wealthy. What they contributed to Qin Changge's royal treasury this time was merely a drop in the ocean. Qin Changge entered the royal treasury and examined it; countless rare and precious materials were on display.

"These things are enough for me to cultivate to the first rank." Without saying a word, Qin Changge put all the treasures into his storage ring.

Xiao Dashan, standing to the side, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty, shouldn't we keep some to reward subordinates, officials, or meritorious subjects in the future?"

"No need!" Qin Changge waved his hand. "I'm going to be a tyrannical ruler. If I'm fair in rewards and punishments, how can I be considered a tyrannical ruler?"

Xiao Dashan: "..."

"Alright, alright, I'm going back to cultivate," Qin Changge instructed. "Unless the imperial army or the Prince of Jin's army attacks and we'll die if we don't come out, then you can call me. Turn down all other trivial matters!"

"Yes." Xiao Dashan nodded.

……

Outside the capital, at the camp of the Prince of Jin's army.

Inside the tent, Prince Qin Changqing of Jin, Prince Qin Changfeng of Ning, and Prince Qin Changjian of Zhou gathered together.

Qin Changfeng said, "Nie Tiaodeng has been gone for two days now, and we haven't heard a word from him. Should we send someone else over?"

Qin Changjian said coldly, "I suspect that Nie Tiaodeng has no intention of coming back at all."

Prince Qin Changqing of Jin shook his head. "Even if Nie Tiaodeng returns to the Fourth Prince's command, he will not be given important responsibilities. Instead, he will fall from grace and be forgotten. Therefore, it is impossible for him to return to the Fourth Prince's command."

"So he was arrested?" Qin Changjian asked doubtfully. "After all, the capital is indeed like a net that can't be put up, so it's not surprising that Nie Tiaodeng was arrested."

Qin Changqing smiled slightly, "Although there are many people and many eyes in the capital, there are many people who will help cover up his traces."

"Hmm?" Both Qin Changfeng and Qin Changjian were somewhat unsure.

Qin Changqing explained, "No news right now is the best news. We just need to wait."

"Alright then." Both Qin Changfeng and Qin Changjian were convinced.

Just then, the guards outside the tent suddenly rushed in, cupped their fists and said, "Your Highness, Minister Nie has returned and is requesting an audience."

"Ok?"

Qin Changfeng and Qin Changjian's eyes lit up.

Qin Changqing's lips curled into a slight smile. "Quickly, invite Minister Nie in."

"Yes!" The guard accepted the order and left the tent.

Before long, Nie Tiaodeng entered the tent, and then respectfully clasped his hands in greeting to Prince Qin Changqing of Jin:

"Your Highness, I have successfully completed my mission and have finally found like-minded partners."

Both Qin Changfeng and Qin Changjian were delighted.

Qin Changfeng and Qin Changjian asked curiously, "Who is the person willing to help us?"

Nie Tiaodeng lowered his voice: "Yes..."

Upon hearing this, both Qin Changfeng and Qin Changjian widened their eyes, looking utterly astonished.

Qin Changqing, standing to the side, remained calm. "We are on the main road, and naturally more and more like-minded people will come to join us. The fourth brother is on a narrow path, and naturally many people will leave him!"

Qin Changqing nodded, looked at Nie Tiaodeng, and asked, "Have you come up with any countermeasures with them?"

Nie Tiaodeng clasped his hands and said, "We only need to attack the city to lull Qin Chang'an into a false sense of security. Then, at night, someone will open the city gates for us."

Qin Changqing nodded. "In that case, let's begin preparations."
