BXBX NOVEL Chapter 270 The Plan
Li Tian sighed.
"It\'s been what, almost three years since you were told that you had to enter the Xiantian realm within this time?" he asked.
"Is this related to the coronation? The new king?" Liu Feng asked.
"Indeed. The connection between the Ancient Lands and us has always resided in one place. And that place is also within the imperial palace within the capital city. Only the new king can activate the portal." Li Tian nodded.
"Wait. Do we want to open, or close the portal? Does it make sense to open the portal if the entire Long family is going to come here to protect Long Xian?" Liu Feng asked.
"They might come here to protect Long Xian, but the entire Long family will still be restricted to the Soul Evolution Stage here. And while their physical bodies are tough, the power of the Liu Family does not just lie in cultivation." Liu Qian said, looking at Liu Ling Tian.
"My mother, she was the princess of the Tian family, was she not? I have royal blood in my veins.\' Liu Feng asked.
"Indeed. Technically, you are eligible to vie for the throne just because your mother was so high up on the royal family, but no one would allow you to become the king. A son of a princess cannot become a king. Only the direct descendants can vie. And there are a whole twelve princes who are trying to take over the kingdom." Li Tian said.
"You, you can still go there and put your hat in the pile. That will be the best distraction that can happen. Too many people will be focused on the selection of the new king, and we can storm the dungeons." Liu Qian said.
"No. He is too young. It is good that he entered the Soul Evolution Stage. He can protect himself in the war that is to come. But it is too dangerous for him to participate." Liu Ling Tian shook his head.
Ping!

Reward: Three Minor Layers of cultivation]
"Wait, what? I need to do what now?" Liu Feng jumped up with shock.
"What happened?" everyone looked at him with confusion.
"I will go. I need to go to the palace now. I will try to become the king. What is the selection process? How do I become the king?" Liu Feng asked.
"Why do you want to become the king?" Li Tian looked at him with curiosity.
"I want to become the king. Who in the world doesn\'t? Now tell me what I need to do." Liu Feng asked.
"You need to win the battle of succession. But I highly doubt that you can win. The other princes all have other Soul Evolution Stage experts in their ranks, while all you have is yourself." Liu Qian said.
Liu Feng smiled and he glanced at Liu Man.
"You know what happened. It\'s a whole three minor realms this time. I can increase a whole three minor realms." Liu Feng said.
"Three minor realms? Isn\'t that too many? That will take you beyond the Soul Evolution stage." Liu Man said.
All of this was happening, of course, telepathically through divine sense.
"Doesn\'t matter. Cultivation is cultivation. I can skip to the peak of the Soul Evolution Stage, and with the number of cores that you got, so can you. Won\'t that help you so much as well? We can prepare when we enter the Ancient Realm." Liu Feng smiled and said.
"He has two Soul Evolution Stage experts in his rank. Don\'t forget me. With just the two of us, we will be able to take any force that comes at us. Who can actually participate in the battle of succession? Can other powers also take part?" Liu Man asked.
"Indeed. Any power can participate, but major powers generally do not. The only powers that actually do participate are the three under families, as well as second and third rate powers." Liu Qian nodded.
"Good. When is the succession going to happen then? How much time do we have to prepare for the succession?" Liu Man asked.
"Three months. There is still time for the coronation, but it is too late. How can you enter the battle of succession? I just need you guys to create a diversion." Liu Qian said.
"If you can help me communicate with the Green Gale tiger of Kaishi, we will go to the capital city and talk to the Cai family, and convince them to join our side." Liu Man said.
"The Cai family? The Cai family is already behind the tenth prince." Li Tian shook his head.
"And how many Soul Evolution Stage cultivators are behind the tenth prince?" Liu Feng asked, smiling.
"One. Within the palace itself. And counting the Cai family, four." Li Tian said.
"Interesting. And not all Soul Evolution Stage cultivators are equal, obviously. How many of them in his faction are in the high ranks of the Soul Evolution Stage?" Liu Feng asked.
"One. The Ancestor of the Cai family."
"Wonderful. With this, I think that I can convince even the tenth prince to join my faction." Liu Feng smiled.
"What are you thinking of doing?" Liu Man transmitted his voice to Liu Feng.
"I just need to be the king for what, until the system accepts it. After that, I can just pass the position to the tenth prince in a defined contract, and leave for the ancient realms." Liu Feng smiled.
"That is not bad. Now, all you can hope is that the Cai family will accept your request."
"If not the Cai family, then the Ding family. We have three experts in our faction to start with, and all of us are better than the average Soul Evolution stage cultivator." Liu Feng said.
