540: Chapter 540 Low-Level Methods

Upon hearing it was that Princess Lanti again, Lin Xiao lost interest.

Based on what he had seen and heard in Dayue City, Prince of Wu and Prince of Donghai were much the same; neither was a good person.

Daughters raised by such fathers, no matter how many sage books they read, would have deep-rooted concepts.

If it were not for knowing their lives were short, this father-daughter pair would never have taken the initiative to curry favor with him.

In short, obey and live; dare to scheme, and I will wipe you out!

"No amount of sincerity is useful. Baiyue does not need a king of a different surname in the future," Lin Xiao said indifferently.

The two women looked at each other and nodded in tacit agreement.

This world should have belonged to their husband long ago!

If not for their husband's kind heart and concern for the people, who could resist when the army moved south and the sword pointed forward?

"Su Wansha, you are busy managing the Northern Trade Alliance, so you don't have time to practice, right?" Lin Xiao asked, shifting the subject.

Su Wansha was somewhat ashamed, "Husband... is my martial arts progress too slow? I actually practice every day, but perhaps my talent is not enough."

"Haha, you are already a Spirit Element Mystic Body, with Heaven Grade aptitude. How could your talent be insufficient?"

Lin Xiao laughed, "What you lack is just time, and cultivation base."

"Tonight, I will come to your room. Call Xie Juner too. I want to help you both break through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm."

The two women's main cultivation techniques were both less than sixty years of cultivation base; they only needed two Heaven Grade cultivation pills to steadily step into the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.

Two pills required ten thousand prestige points.

For Lin Xiao now, this bit of prestige was nothing.

He had already helped Mu Wanying and Zhao Caiwei break through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.

He also planned to let his other women become Martial Arts Grandmasters.

Only when his women were strong enough would he be more at ease; strength is the hard truth.

As for the Great Grandmaster realm, the cost was a bit high, so it had to be delayed for now.

"Martial Arts Grandmaster?!"

Su Wansha exclaimed, her beautiful eyes shining with excitement.

Could she also step into the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm in her twenties?

This was something she never dared to dream of in the past!

As for calling Xie Juner along, she was used to it; in this house, everyone often slept together.

That night, in the courtyard where Su Wansha resided.

Xie Juner watched from up close how the man helped Su Wansha step into the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.

The intense practice made Xie Juner blush.

When Su Wansha had no strength left, Xie Juner tremblingly took the other Heaven Grade cultivation pill.

More than an hour later, Xie Juner also successfully stepped into the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.

As the two women's realms improved, Lin Xiao no longer held back, displaying his celestial might!

The next morning, until Lin Xiao finished breakfast and left the prince's mansion, the two newly promoted female Martial Arts Grandmasters had not yet gotten out of bed.

The Martial Arts Grandmaster level was still a bit weak in front of the current Lin Xiao and could not withstand the toss.

When Lin Xiao took Mu Wanying and Zhao Caiwei to the north gate of Baishui City, a team of nearly five hundred people was already waiting.

"Elder Zhu, Master Li Jingyi, why have you come as well?"

Lin Xiao was surprised to see Zhu Ming and Master Li Jingyi among the student team.

Moreover, both were dressed in coarse cloth, seemingly prepared to work in the fields.

"Haha, Prince of Zhenbei, I am, after all, the honorary dean of Northern University. I must attend such an important matter," Zhu Ming said, stroking his beard.

"Indeed, if the potato cultivation succeeds, the Great Gan and the grasslands may truly have no more war. It is a merit for generations to come, and I also want to witness it with my own eyes," Master Li Jingyi said excitedly.

Also following along was Ding Cuihua.

"Prince of Zhenbei, do you mind if this old woman follows? I also want to go and see for myself."

Lin Xiao said happily, "Old Madam, what are you saying? You elders are not afraid of hardship and set an example for the young people; I am too happy to have you."

Lin Xiao immediately ordered Qin He to get a Red Flag car so the three old people could sit inside.

They were supporting agricultural production; he could not really let them ride horses and be jolted, after all, they were old.

Fortunately, the road to the Western Qiang potato planting area had already been built, so traveling by carriage was not a problem.

More than one hundred students from Northern University, as well as a group of instructors, were very excited to see the Prince of Zhenbei leading the team himself.

Lin Xiao came among the students and examined their spirit.

The originally fair-skinned scholars, after a summer of farming in the countryside, were all tanned dark, and their physiques were quite sturdy.

Many who originally did not practice martial arts were also high-spirited, carrying their farm tools with straight backs.

"Have you all participated in the Zhenbei Army training?"

Lin Xiao noticed that these students lined up very neatly, looking well-trained.

"Reporting to the Prince of Zhenbei! It was the Supervisory Colonel of the Zhenbei Army who trained us for two months!"

Zhang Heng, the star student of Master Li Jingyi and student representative, answered.

"Good, I look forward to your performance this time."

When Lin Xiao said this, the students became even more excited!

The Prince of Zhenbei has expectations of us? What does this mean? It means the Prince of Zhenbei wants to cultivate us!!

Sure enough, gritting one's teeth and studying hard to get into Northern University had a bright future!

After inspecting the students, Lin Xiao returned to the front of the team.

Just as he turned to mount his horse, he suddenly saw a somewhat unfamiliar figure behind him to the side.

"Miss Hu?"

Lin Xiao discovered that it was actually Hu Xinyi dressed in brown coarse peasant clothes!

This woman was really willing to sacrifice; he almost didn't recognize her!

"Greetings, Prince of Zhenbei. Thank you for giving Xinyi the opportunity to participate in such a grand event."

Hu Xinyi's heart was beating very fast right now. She thought she was just going to see the potato harvest.

As a result, Elder Zhu and Master Li Jingyi were both here, and the top students from the Northern University academies were all here!

There were countless other officials from the Northern Territory.

As a young woman from a merchant family, she was naturally nervous seeing these great scholars and officials.

"Your outfit is very good; it looks like you are ready to work!" Lin Xiao praised.

Hu Xinyi was stunned, thinking to herself, is this mocking me? Or is it a genuine compliment?

Before the woman could figure it out, Lin Xiao had already waved his hand.

"Let's go!"

The team of over five hundred people marched majestically toward Western Qiang.

Not long after, Princess Lanyi and her party arrived at Baishui City.

According to the rules, the carriage stopped at the Northern Trade Alliance guesthouse responsible for reception.

Several major merchants from the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce were already waiting.

After some pleasantries, Princess Lanyi, as the negotiation representative, was invited into a private room, and the waiter served tea, fruit, and pastries.

Time passed bit by bit.

Nearly half an hour passed, and no one came.

Haitang was unhappy, "Princess Lanyi, what does that Su Wansha mean? How dare she make you wait so long?!"

Princess Lanyi tapped the teacup lightly, but she was not impatient, smiling lightly:

"When negotiating business, one will naturally give the other party a show of force. It is just a low-level tactic. If you get anxious, you have fallen into their trap."
