Peerless Power, Testing the Sword Saint
" Bin 'er, your talent is outstanding. Your swordsmanship is far superior to your peers, comparable to those on the Sons of Heaven Rankings. Now that you can cultivate inner force, your cultivation will definitely improve by leaps and bounds with Ye Gucheng's guidance. However, you have to remember that you are a member of the royal family. Martial arts are not everything."
Zhu Tan looked at his young and steady son, and a trace of satisfaction and pride flashed in his eyes. However, he still emphasized with a solemn expression that his son was good in everything, except that he did not seem to have any desire for power and was devoted to martial arts.
"Father, don't worry. I know!”Zhu Bin nodded and did not refute. However, he sighed in his heart.
After his rebirth, Zhu Bin only wanted to have a harmonious family and cultivate martial arts quietly until he reached the peak. However, as a disciple of the royal family, he had a lot of helplessness.
Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, was already 130 years old. Zhu Yuanzhang's talent in martial arts was not outstanding. Even if he exhausted all his resources, he still had at most 20 years of lifespan left.
Zhu Yuanzhang had a total of twenty-six princes. Other than a few who died young and a few who had exhausted their lifespans, the rest were all conferred the title of Wangye. In addition to the Zhu clan, the descendants, and collateral branches, there were many people in the entire Great Ming Dynasty who were eyeing the throne.
In less than twenty years, the Daming Empire would definitely be in chaos. As a disciple of the Imperial Family, regardless of whether Zhu Bin was interested in the throne or not, he would not be able to escape from this turmoil.
Zhu Bin had never thought of becoming an emperor, but ever since his mother passed away during childbirth, Zhu Ling 'er, Zhu Bin had paid more and more attention to his family in this life. If he wanted to protect his family in this life, he needed absolute power.
"Your Highness, Ye Gucheng is here!" Just as Zhu Bin was deep in thought, a middle-aged man in black walked in and said in a low voice.
" Yes, Bin 'er, follow me out to meet the number one on the Great Ming's Prodigy Roll." Zhu Tan stood up and smiled slightly. His expression was calm and composed, and he did not show any surprise because of Ye Gucheng's name.
Zhu Bin was the same. However, compared to his father's calmness, Zhu Bin's body had a hint of fighting spirit. He subconsciously grabbed the sword hilt at his waist, but in an instant, Zhu Bin released his hand.
Although Zhu Bin did not cultivate internal energy, his strength and speed were not inferior to a peak Houtian expert. His sword technique had reached the peak of skill, and he was only one step away from comprehending sword intent.
At Bin Zhu's age, even Gucheng Yeh might not have such skills. However, Bin Zhu was still far from being a match for Gucheng Yeh. Even if Bin Zhu was ten times stronger, he still could not withstand a casual sword strike from Gucheng Yeh.
Soon, Zhu Bin followed his father out of the main hall and saw Ye Gucheng walking towards them.
Ye Gucheng was dressed in white. He had a handsome face and a pair of cold eyes. He did not have any sword intent that a swordsman should have. He looked aloof, ethereal and peerless.
Ye Gucheng walked up and cupped his fists slightly at Zhu Tan. He did not show much respect just because Zhu Tan was a prince. He did not even look at Zhu Bin and the others who were standing at the side. He said in an extremely cold voice,"Greetings, King Pingnan!"
Zhu Tan smiled as he sized up Ye Gucheng. The aura around him kept rising. Zhu Bin could vaguely hear a dragon's roar coming from Zhu Tan's body. In just a moment, Zhu Tan's aura had crossed two levels and was faintly pressing down on Ye Gucheng.
Zhu Bin had long known that his father's talent in martial arts was not high. With the resources of King Pingnan's Mansion, he was only at the peak of the Innate Celestial Realm. Facing the Innate Earth Realm swordsman, Gu Cheng Ye, he would probably be no different from him and would not be able to withstand a single move.
However, at this moment, Zhu Tan's aura directly crossed the barrier between the innate heaven realm and the earth realm. It kept rising until it entered the innate heaven realm before stabilizing.
"Could it be that father is an expert who hides his cultivation?”Zhu Bin couldn't help but think, but after a closer look, he realized that this power didn't seem to belong to Zhu Tan, but was borrowed from an external force. Moreover, whether it was Ye Gucheng or the man in black who was standing behind Zhu Tan to protect him, they didn't look surprised, so Zhu Bin couldn't help but give up on this idea.
"What kind of power is this? An Innate Celestial Realm cultivator was able to use external forces to leap over the Innate World Realm and reach the Heaven Realm without any surprises. Could this be the cultivation path of this world?”For a moment, Zhu Bin's heart was filled with questions.
However, Zhu Bin quickly suppressed these doubts in his heart and looked at Ye Gucheng. At this moment, Ye Gucheng had truly displayed the elegance of the number one peerless swordsman on the prodigy roll.
Under Zhu Tan's pressure, the sword will on Ye Gucheng's body rose. The white-robed Ye Gucheng looked even more lonely and ethereal. The sharp sword will was even colder than before. Under Zhu Tan's pressure, he stood firm and could faintly compete with Zhu Tan.
"Good! As expected of the number one prodigy of my Great Ming. He's already not inferior to the experts of the older generation. In the future, he will definitely be able to step into the Heaven Realm and become a powerful expert of the current era. It's even possible for him to reach the God Realm."
After the two people's auras were locked in a stalemate for a few breaths, Zhu Tan took the initiative to retract his aura and praised loudly.
"Your Highness is too kind!" Ye Gucheng was still calm and indifferent, but when Zhu Tan mentioned the Immortal State, a fiery light flashed in his eyes.
"Since you have such strength, I can rest assured that I will hand Bin 'er over to you. Bin' er, why aren't you greeting teacher?”Zhu Tan looked at Zhu Bin behind him, only to see that Zhu Bin's eyes were closed and he was standing there motionlessly.
