Chapter 961: Chapter 961
At that time, both were little rubbish, and the other princes couldn't even be considered little rubbish.
Looking at it this way, the flaws in their movements are quite interesting.
At first glance, it seems like the Second Prince is the No.2 White Water Egg, but when you trace it back to when neither of them had so much power, it becomes particularly obvious.
The Crown Prince transformed into a White Water Egg. Unfortunately, he was too young in the early stages, his thoughts were incomplete, his power was low, and he left behind flaws. Newest update provided by n0velfire.net
Over a thousand years ago, the Crown Prince began to spread his wings and had people he could fully trust.
The Second Prince also started to rise, and the Crown Prince began consciously reducing potential traces and flaws, deliberately guiding them towards the Second Prince.
This was basically synchronized with their power, authority, and status.
It was also around that time that Han Dong appeared, was forced out of the royal family, and fled to the deep sea to train for over a thousand years, becoming a Sword Cultivator with excessive killing intent.
However, Yu Ziqing was still puzzled. If the Crown Prince became the White Water Egg from that time, how did he manage to hide it from Emperor Qian, from rituals like ancestral or heavenly sacrifices?
In such scenarios, there's no way someone could have stood in for him.
Just like Yu Ziqing's current identity, no one can replace him; no matter how real the fake is, it can only be fake.
Thinking of this, Yu Ziqing slapped his forehead.
How can it not be real? Why must there be a replacement? There doesn't have to be a replacement.
The Crown Prince transformed into a White Water Egg, and wore his own Painted Skin, using his own face, so he was still himself, couldn't be more real.
From bloodline to Divine Soul, to his face, even to the national fortune of the Divine Dynasty, there was no issue.
The initial few hundred years might have left some small flaws, but that's understandable.
Later, he got used to it, fully controlled it, and naturally adapted to the identity.
It's like a time traveler, transforming into the Crown Prince without understanding anything; as long as the bloodline and Divine Soul are fine, he wouldn't be seen through.
Hundreds of years have passed, and no matter how you stretch it, he could adapt to the identity.
Yu Ziqing closed his eyes, immersing himself in the Crown Prince's identity.
He wanted to speculate what the Crown Prince thought back then, why he chose to become a White Water Egg.
With the current perspective, it's naturally hard to understand.
But two thousand years ago.
Back then, Emperor Zhen was dismembered, a Ninth Tier Peak Body Cultivator, and yet the Emperor of the Divine Dynasty ended up like that.
This might have been a significant shock to the Crown Prince, who was still a little rubbish back then.
If someone told him, or even showed him hope, with a big chance to advance to the Tenth Tier.
Would he not be willing to take a gamble?
After all, back then, whether he could succeed, was a small probability event.
Moreover, Emperor Qian was in his prime, and he might have to wait a long time for a chance to ascend, and if he wasn't at the Ninth Tier, he would hardly have a chance of succession even as the Crown Prince.
So, the lure of this treasure of a position may not have been as great as the lure of power.
It could also be that he wanted to leverage the power of the White Water Egg organization back then.
But now, more than two thousand years later, his chance of succession has exceeded fifty percent.
Besides the Second Prince, the others are little rubbish and pose little threat.
He has a fifty-five percent chance, the Second Prince has forty percent, and the remaining princes split the half percent chance.
Moreover, Dadui's return has become a fait accompli, the Tenth Tier path will surely open. If he ascends the throne, his chances of advancing to the Tenth Tier are not small, and he has power in his grasp.
If I were Yu Ziqing, I wouldn't want to bother with No.1 White Water Egg either.
The White Water Egg organization, from being a major help initially, has turned into a burden.
Going back, ask Song if the Crown Prince had a hand in instigating when attacking the White Water Egg base.
Perhaps now, the Crown Prince fears his identity being revealed the most.
Having deduced this far, Yu Ziqing breathed a small sigh of relief.
Thinking this way, there shouldn't be a way for No.2 to contact Wig White Water Egg.
Even though the White Water Egg organization is essentially under control, with important roles being undercover agents, Yu Ziqing has not dared to let New Five borrow the Jade Scroll to contact Wig White Water Egg because Wig White Water Egg is now a Divine King.
It's also uncertain if others have ways to contact the Divine King.
Not a single bit of uncertainty; Yu Ziqing doesn't want to gamble, losing could give the Divine King crucial information.
Considering the current circumstances, it's better to ponder how to use every sentence as true to pass along some false information to the Divine King.
Moreover, the missing parts of this speech, for safety, cannot be known to New Five.
Only in this way, can it be ensured that after New Five contacts the Divine King, every sentence spoken is true, and when mentioning something, it's not nine-tenths truth but hiding one-tenth.
After much contemplation, start by doing something, to test a little.
Several days later, New Five appeared and took away No.5's coffin.
In a secret chamber, New Five opened the coffin and used a little Tiger and Wolf Medicine to forcefully instigate No.5's vitality, igniting his last breath, and forcibly awakening him.
No.5 opened his eyes, vigilantly looking around, seeing the same White Water Egg, and since it wasn't No.1, he slightly relaxed.
New Five spoke in a deep voice.
No.5 sensed the substantial ominous aura infecting his body and the burning vitality, and fell silent.
"What's your number?"
"My previous number doesn't matter, I'm the new No.1 now.
