511: Take refuge
When the Sixth Prince heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
He had to admit, his elder brother truly had some tricks up his sleeve.
To be able to send out three True Immortal Realm experts at once.
Moreover, he had specifically set up a killing trap for him.
However, he was far too dismissive of the people of the world.
Such a simple situation, did he truly think he couldn't see through it?
Now, it was merely a case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Before the Sixth Prince could continue speaking.
Bai Ningbing, opposite him, let out a cold snort.
A majestic aura suddenly descended upon the area.
In an instant, the powerful aura of the True Immortal Realm swept through the entire secret chamber.
Directly pressing down on the Sixth Prince and Wang Changfeng below.
"Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, need not be mentioned. As for that young man over there, I can give you a chance to live. Hand over a wisp of your True Spirit to me, and I will spare your life."
The surrounding guards, seeing this scene, quickly stepped forward to protect the Sixth Prince in the middle.
Each of them looked warily at the group of people who had suddenly appeared opposite them.
For the Sixth Prince, even if they died, they could not allow a member of the imperial Family to be harmed.
Otherwise, there would be no difference between them and being dead.
As for these guards, Bai Ningbing didn't even put them in his eyes.
They were nothing more than a bunch of weaklings.
In fact, in his eyes, he could crush them with a flick of his hand.
"Is that so?"
Wang Changfeng chuckled softly.
He didn't take the other party's threats to heart at all.
Especially this so-called demand for him to hand over a wisp of his True Spirit.
That was absolutely impossible.
To hand over a wisp of one's True Spirit to another's hands was, without a doubt, to place one's life in another's hands.
From then on, he would be at the mercy of others.
When he was in the Lower Realm, he was a Mortal World True Immortal.
Countless people respected him.
How could he become someone else's subordinate here, or even a slave to be casually ordered around?
What's more, he wasn't blind to this situation; rather, the people opposite him were too arrogant.
Perhaps they believed their plan had no flaws whatsoever.
Perhaps it was Wang Changfeng's overly nonchalant attitude that made Bai Ningbing's expression turn ugly.
He immediately snorted coldly and said.
"Do you think the Wang Family is so strong that I wouldn't dare to deal with you? What a fool's dream."
Recently, the Wang Family's reputation had indeed grown considerably.
Many disciples of the Wang Family were out gaining experience.
Because the Wang Family had a True Immortal Realm expert overseeing it.
Coupled with many Supreme Realm experts.
They had indeed made quite a name for themselves.
Especially in this Canglan Dao Province.
Their reputation was even more prominent.
Naturally, he couldn't not recognize someone from the Wang Family.
The reason he immediately tried to recruit Wang Changfeng was not without the intention of being wary of the Wang Family.
Of course, while he was wary, he wasn't afraid.
For example, demanding a True Spirit to control him.
This was one manifestation of that.
Even if he felt some apprehension towards the Wang Family, it wasn't as if he had no counter-measures.
The imperial Family power he represented was also incredibly formidable.
Simply in terms of paper strength, their imperial Family was even superior.
The reason he felt wary of the Wang Family.
Was mainly because the Wang Family had ascended from the Lower Realm.
Their Family Head was even more unfathomable.
Upon ascending to the Upper Realm, he was already at the Late Stage of the True Immortal Realm.
He could be considered a venerable figure in many families.
An existence akin to a stabilizing force.
Even within their imperial Family, such an existence could command significant influence.
Moreover, if the Wang Family pledged allegiance to the Sixth Prince, then the excellent situation of the First Prince's faction, which he represented, would likely reverse in an instant.
Naturally, he couldn't allow such a thing to happen.
Even the First Prince behind him was extremely wary of this.
With all these conditions combined, even if the imperial Family's power was not weaker than the Wang Family's.
Due to the threat the Wang Family could pose to the First Prince, Bai Ningbing had to consider this point.
Pausing slightly, Bai Ningbing spoke again.
"If you are truly unwilling, I can offer you a compromise. As long as you swear a Heavenly Dao oath here not to reveal anything that happened today, I can also let you live."
He was mainly worried that the infighting between the princes, if leaked, would damage the First Prince's reputation.
Unless absolutely necessary, he naturally wouldn't rashly create enemies for the First Prince.
Of course, the main reason was still that the Wang Family was too powerful.
Strength breeds caution in others.
Regarding this point.
Wang Changfeng was also aware.
Let alone that he didn't even put the other party in his eyes.
Even if he did, what then?
Today's events were not within the other party's control.
The Sixth Prince was quite clever.
This was merely a scheme of using their own trick against them.
It was simply that the situation set up by the other party was too crude.
Although it was just a True Immortal Immortal Cave,
But in Canglan Dao Province, for many, it was already considered a significant Opportunity.
It was an Opportunity, and it just so happened to reach the Sixth Prince's ears at a time when his situation was dire.
It was hard not to make people overthink.
Especially since this information was obtained quite easily.
The Sixth Prince was no fool.
To be able to stand firm among the imperial Family descendants until today.
If he didn't have some tricks, he would have long been devoured by others, leaving no trace.
Being able to persevere until now already proved that the Sixth Prince's abilities in certain aspects were indeed extraordinary.
Of course, Wang Changfeng wasn't saying he would completely pledge allegiance to the Sixth Prince's faction.
It was mainly because their friendship had indeed grown deep over these past few years.
Moreover, the Wang Family had just established itself in the Immortal Realm.
Although Wang Changfeng needed to consider the entire Family,
Having an imperial Family power to connect and befriend would also be of immense benefit to the Wang Family.
Especially in the current situation.
Wang Changfeng, whether for personal reasons or for the whole, naturally wouldn't miss the chance to help the Sixth Prince.
Of course, it wasn't about staking his entire life and fortune.
The struggle for the throne among princes had always been an extremely dangerous affair.
He was willing to take risks, but that didn't mean he was going all in. Currently, he was merely helping the Sixth Prince a little as an individual.
If it succeeded, everyone would be happy; if it failed, the blame would only fall on him alone.
Overall, it wouldn't have too much impact.
Just like the current situation.
Even if there were more people on the other side, Wang Changfeng felt no pressure whatsoever.
On one hand, these people in his eyes were indeed somewhat insignificant.
Achieving the True Immortal Realm in the Immortal Realm versus achieving it in the Lower Realm.
The difficulty involved was incomparable.
In other words, he could actually say that he had the potential of an Immortal King.
Given time, his achievements might not be inferior to some giant existences.
Of course, his cultivation was still weak now.
He was merely at the Early Stage of the True Immortal Realm.
But even so, over the long years.
