Chapter 118 Fang Shiyuan Challenges Yuwen Chengdu

Fang Shiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly. After hearing Li Mujun's introduction, he made a request:

"The eldest princess wants me to surrender to King Yao, but King Yao also needs to send one person to fight with me. He can only catch ten of my moves!"

Li Mujun's brows were condensed, but they relaxed in an instant. Looking at the calm and energetic Fang Shiyuan, he nodded with satisfaction. If this person can join Li Yao, his future achievements may not be as good as Fang Wukui's.

"no problem."

"General Fang, we have a good cooperation."

After Li Mujun exchanged greetings with Fang Wukui, he left.

The father and son were left quietly in the lobby.

"I'm sorry, father. King Ruoyao doesn't even have anyone under his command that I recognize. How can I rely on this person?"

Fang Shiyuan lowered his head and said to Fang Wu Kui.

"Haha~"

Fang Wukui chuckled softly, and stroked his beard with his thick arms. Every move, although inadvertent, gave people a feeling of shock and awe.

"You are my most outstanding son. My father can give you the direction to choose, but he does not have the power to choose for you. Go ahead and do it boldly. My father has always been your strong backing."

"Thank you father!"

"However, you have to remember that you can seek refuge with any prince, as long as he is a member of the royal family. Do not choose anyone else!"

"Shiyuan understands." Fang Shiyuan's face was stern and his eyes were firm, but soon he looked hesitant again:

"But, father, if I take refuge with other princes, what impact will it have on you..."

"You don't have to worry. You are you and I am me. The royal family can tell the difference clearly. As long as I don't interfere, even if the prince you took refuge in fails, our Zhenbei Hou Mansion will only be temporarily in despair."

"With your Majesty's character, the other princes will not treat us veterans badly. It's a pity for Chu Junxiong. Your Majesty has given him so many years and he hasn't figured it out yet!"

Fang Wukui sighed with tiger eyes. When His Majesty called him back to the capital, he did not restrict his freedom. He even planned to let him take charge of the Imperial Guard to guard the capital, but he refused.

What is the use of being a general if there is no army to fight?

"Without further delay, father, Shiyuan will go to the Prince of Chu's Mansion to meet with the Prince of Chu now!"

After Fang Shiyuan received the answer, he finally felt relieved, turned around and left, heading to Prince Chu's Mansion.

Seeing Fang Shiyuan's resolute appearance, Mrs. Fang slowly walked out of the back hall and said with a worried look:

"The situation is not clear yet. If Shiyuan comes out early, will it harm Shiyuan?"

"People always need to exercise. If you don't exercise, how can you grow? Troubled times will arise and talents will emerge in large numbers. Who will need him when the situation becomes clearer!"

………………

In front of the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion, carriages stopped one after another. The housekeeper of Prince Chu's Mansion stood at the door to greet the guests who came to visit. There were many spies among the people surrounding him who were watching every move of Prince Chu's Mansion.

Suddenly there was a tremor in the street. Fang Shiyuan and four young generals came on horseback and approached the Prince of Chu's Mansion. The surrounding carriages blocked their way. Seeing that it was Fang Shiyuan, the horsemen from the aristocratic families quickly pulled the carriages aside to let them pass.

The four young generals behind Fang Shiyuan were the sons of Deputy General Fang Wukui. When they heard that Fang Shiyuan was going to seek refuge with a certain prince, they all followed him.

Arriving at the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion, Fang Shiyuan and the four young generals dismounted their horses at the same time and stood on the ground outside the mansion.

At this moment, Fang Shiyuan was wearing armor and holding a three-pointed two-edged sword. There was a sharp aura about him, attracting the attention of everyone around him.

Some people immediately started talking:

"Isn't that the young Marquis of Zhenbei? What is he here for?"

"Did he come to seek refuge with the King of Chu?"

"No way."

"I heard that Fang Xiaohou is extremely arrogant. When did he take the initiative to seek refuge with others, and he is still the weakest King of Chu?"

For a time, the spies spread the news one after another.

The housekeeper of the Chu Palace had already sent someone to notify Li Yuan.

In the palace, Li Yuan was talking with many talents. When they learned that Fang Shiyuan was standing still in front of the palace, everyone was surprised.

"Fang Shiyuan?" Li Yuan had heard of this name before and was very familiar with it.

The young man closest to Li Yuan was the person with the highest status here, named Zhou Xuan. Surprise also appeared in his eyes at this time.

Facing Li Yuan’s doubts, he introduced Li Yuan:

"Your Highness, this Fang Shiyuan is the son of Zhenbei Hou. He is one of the five famous heroes in Kyoto. He is proud and has high cultivation level."

The person next to him nodded and said, "Fang Shiyuan will not come to Prince Chu's Mansion for no reason. Does he also want to seek refuge with His Highness?"

Many people's eyes lit up. If Fang Shiyuan really surrendered to King Chu, it would definitely be a big help to him.

Then Zhou Xuan reminded:

"Your Highness, as the son of Zhenbei Hou, Fang Shiyuan should not take the initiative to seek refuge with Your Highness. Is there something wrong with him coming here?"

"Let's go, I want to see what Fang Shiyuan is doing here."

Li Yuan waved his hand and brought a group of newly recruited talents to the front door of the mansion to find out what was going on.

Outside the mansion, more and more people gathered after learning that Fang Shiyuan had arrived at Prince Chu's mansion.

In Prince Yao's palace, Li Yao was so happy that he jumped up when he learned that it was Fang Shiyuan.

Great, my aunt is really powerful, and she even brought Fang Shiyuan, one of the five elites in Kyoto, over.

Thinking of Fang Shiyuan taking the initiative to join him, Li Yao's face was filled with joy, imagining his own glorious scene and how he would win over Zhenbei Hou in the future...

The future is promising!

Outside the Prince Chu's Mansion, Fang Shiyuan, who had been closing his eyes tightly, heard a large number of footsteps coming from the mansion, and finally opened his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a group of young talents with extraordinary temperament in the palace, surrounding a young man who exuded a noble temperament and walked out.

Fang Shiyuan and the four young generals behind him immediately saluted:

"Meet the King of Chu!"

When Li Yuan saw Fang Shiyuan's heroic appearance, his eyes lit up and he said gently:

"Fang Shiyuan, why did you come to Prince Chu's Mansion?"

Fang Shiyuan looked directly at Li Yuan and said with a serious expression:

"I heard that His Majesty the King of Chu has a general named Yuwen Chengdu who once defeated a strong master with his innate state. I am very curious, so I implore Your Majesty to ask him to come out and fight me. If I lose, I am willing to support His Majesty!"

"Wow!"

Fang Shiyuan's words shocked the people around him, and discussions immediately broke out. Some people simply didn't believe it:

"How is it possible to defeat a powerful master with an innate state?"

"Not necessarily. According to legend, there are some talented people who can leapfrog and challenge. We just haven't seen it, so it may not be possible!"

"Yes, just like Chu Tianjiao!"

"I didn't expect His Highness King Chu to have such a fierce general under his command!"

"It turns out that Mr. Fang Xiaohou wanted to challenge Yuwen Chengdu, but his bet was too high. If he lost, he would be loyal to the King of Chu?"

"Not necessarily. Mr. Fang Xiaohou is now at the peak of the Grandmaster level. He is also a super genius and is invincible at the Grandmaster level. How could he lose?"

"Yes, I believe Mr. Fang Xiaohou is the strongest!"

Blah blah blah!

There was a lot of noise around, and the people were talking a lot.
