Even if they professed their deep love for Lu Chen in bed, or even sweetly called him "darling," they could still potentially betray him.
Wu Junwan and Murong Xue'er had always believed that Lu Chen didn't fully trust the two of them, but rather, because of Lu Chen's powerful strength, he didn't fear them stealing any information from the North Prince Mansion.
The cannons of the North Country were the core secret of the nation, and Wu Junwan was still sowhat incredulous that Lu Chen would willingly expose their core secret to them.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "We've co this far; do you really think I'm just teasing you?"
Wu Junwan lightly responded, "I hope you won't regret it later."
Lu Chen didn't mind and directly led Wu Junwan and Murong Xue'er to the training grounds.
When the training soldiers heard that the Prince was coming, they quickly ceased their training and lined up in two rows to wait for Lu Chen's arrival.
Once Lu Chen entered the training field, the soldiers spoke in unison, "Greetings to the Prince! Long live the Prince, long live, long live!"
After entering the training grounds, Lu Chen said, "Don't mind , continue your training."
Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the soldiers returned to their original positions.
By then, Wu Junwan and Murong Xue'er's gaze had already fallen on the cannons at the firing range, staring intently at the soldiers' operation process, seemingly afraid to miss even a single step.
After a while, a soldier pulled the cannon's lanyard, and subsequently, a deafening sound emanated, followed by the target area being blown up, sending dust flying chaotically.
Witnessing this stunning scene, both won were stunned.
Wu Junwan felt a twinge in her heart.
No wonder the North Country could so easily defeat the Great Wu Dynasty.
She sensed the realm of these artilleryn; most were at the first tier, with so not even reaching that level — they were simply physically stronger commoners.
An ordinary person could operate such a powerful weapon, and one round from the cannon could kill a Grandmaster or even hinder the movents of a Great Grandmaster. If there were enough of these weapons, the martial artists of other dynasties would be no different from commoners in the face of the North Country.
No, more accurately, no different from ants.
At this mont, the training soldiers perford a volley with the cannons, and in an instant, the distant target range was blasted with nurous large pits, and the rising dust seed to form a wall several ters high.
Seeing this, Wu Junwan was completely dumbstruck, and Murong Xue'er felt similarly, thinking that if the Da Yue Dynasty really went up against the North Country, they likely wouldn't have a chance of winning.
It seed that regaining her freedom was only a matter of ti, as her original agreent with Lu Chen stipulated she'd be granted her freedom once the Da Yue Dynasty was vanquished.
The North Country possessing such formidable weapons ant the downfall of the Da Yue was a foregone conclusion.
Murong Xue'er suddenly felt a sense of confusion, wondering what she would do once she regained her freedom. Leave the North Country and find a place rich in scholarly atmosphere where she could settle down?
Cannon fire continued to resound, but the thoughts of the two won had already drifted away from the artillery field.
After what seed like ages, Lu Chen saw the two won were lost in thought, and he spoke up, "Would you like to try it out yourselves?"
On hearing Lu Chen's voice, Wu Junwan ca to her senses and said, "It seems you truly aren't afraid of figuring out the structure of these cannons."
Lu Chen was about to say sothing when Wu Junwan continued, "There's no need, I've seen enough to know that the use of these cannons is far from difficult, and it's not the launchers themselves that wield the killing effect, but those tal balls."
Seeing Wu Junwan's lack of interest, Lu Chen then said, "Since you're not interested, let's go elsewhere to see how the other soldiers train."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Following that, Lu Chen took the two won to various other training fields.
After an afternoon, Wu Junwan had noticed that in addition to terrifying weapons, the North Country's army had very different training thods and military discipline.
Their army appeared to be more disciplined, achieving the mark of imdiate obedience to orders.
This greatly surprised Wu Junwan; such a lustful man actually had an army with such good discipline—it was completely incongruent with the ruler, the North Prince.
As evening approached,
Lu Chen returned to the train with Wu Junwan and Murong Xue'er.
The moonlight tonight was beautifully clear, its rays shining through the train windows into the cabin, casting a saintly glow on people's faces.
Lu Chen led Wu Junwan and Murong Xue'er to the second carriage, where the table was already full of food.
There were no lights turned on in the carriage; instead, candles were lit, making the food look even more appetizing under their fla, and stimulating the appetite.
Wu Junwan was sowhat puzzled, not knowing what Lu Chen was up to.
Lu Chen smiled and said to Wu Junwan and Murong Xue'er, "Please, take a seat."
Without giving it much thought, the two won sat down to enjoy the dinner, and it had to be said, the food of the Prince's Mansion greatly suited their taste; since both had lived in the mansion, they could no longer enjoy food from outside.
At this mont, Wu Junwan said, "I've heard that every evening, the Prince dines with his wives and concubines. Why didn't you go back to dine with them tonight?"
