Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques-Chapter 1062 - 326: The Ninth Princess Returns to the Divine Capital! Lu Changsheng Acts Once, Shocking Everyone! (Part 2)
"After the Sixth Prince's death, some of the elite warriors he had drawn in, as well as some officials and influential families that once supported him, remained. Now, the other princes are competing for those officials, families, and even warriors left behind by the Sixth Prince."
"We've also tried to recruit them, but because the Princess was not in the Divine Capital, the response was minimal. Fortunately, the Princess has returned..."
Listening to the report from subordinates, the Ninth Princess basically understood the cause of the Sixth Prince's death.
Contending with a god from Outer Heaven over the divine object must have been incredibly dangerous.
Even though the Sixth Prince had already refined the divine object.
It was even a Divine Body Foundation.
Moreover, he was accompanied by many top-tier warriors.
Their faction was not weak at all.
But so what?
It was said that the god from Outer Heaven they encountered was named "Huang Tianhao."
This "Huang Tianhao" was said to be a top existence even among the gods from Outer Heaven, with power so immense it could shake the heavens and earth.
Without a National Guardian Divine Object, it would be challenging to suppress him.
As a result, when the Sixth Prince competed against Huang Tianhao, he was naturally killed by him.
"Huang Tianhao..."
Lu Changsheng recalled carefully but had never heard of this name.
After all, there were countless elite warriors from various races.
Lu Changsheng was not very familiar with them.
The Ninth Princess waved her hand and said, "There's no need to bother with the gods from Outer Heaven; they don't dare to wreak havoc in the Divine Capital."
"The Sixth Prince had left the Divine Capital to compete with those gods from Outer Heaven over the divine object, but he hit a hard wall and lost his life instead."
"However, with the Sixth Prince's death, we must get a share of the spoils no matter what."
"Which elite warriors, officials, or families from the Sixth Prince Mansion have not yet been recruited by other princes?"
People from the Princess Mansion exchanged glances, then the person who had reported earlier continued, "Reporting to Your Highness, many under the Sixth Prince have already pledged allegiance to other factions, but some families seem to be watching from the sidelines, or rather, awaiting a better offer."
"Among them, the Ouyang Family holds the most influence. The Third Prince and Eleventh Prince had both tried to recruit the Ouyang Family, but they were refused."
"If the Princess went personally, there might be a chance, but..."
The rest went unsaid but was understood by all present.
Even with the Ninth Princess visiting the Ouyang Family in person, it was feared that convincing them to pledge loyalty would be extremely challenging.
The Sixth Prince himself had expended considerable effort to win over the Ouyang Family.
Given the Ninth Princess's disadvantaged position in the succession struggle, how could she expect to sway the Ouyang Family?
Yet, the Ninth Princess was unwilling to give up.
The Ouyang Family wielded significant influence.
If she could win them over, her momentum would gradually rise.
Eventually, she might even stand a chance against the other princes.
With this thought, the Ninth Princess made up her mind.
"I will personally visit the Ouyang Family."
"There is no time to lose. Prepare the carriage; I will go to the Ouyang Family right now!"
The Ninth Princess was already eager and impatient.
She had been delayed a while in Xia State.
In truth, she was already in a very unfavorable position.
She desperately needed the Ouyang Family.
After all, the Ouyang Family's connections spanned the Divine Dynasty, and they even held one of the top ten commerces in the Divine Capital.
They were truly wealthy and powerful.
For any prince or princess to succeed in the succession struggle, assembling a capable team, having a force that could consistently contribute wealth, was critical. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
The Sixth Prince had been a hot contender for the throne precisely because of the Ouyang Family's support.
The Ninth Princess wanted to change the current situation.
Thus, she must have the Ouyang Family serve her!
In the past, the Ninth Princess had no opportunity to recruit the Ouyang Family.
But now, things were different.
Now was a golden opportunity for the Ninth Princess!
She had to seize it!
"There is no time to lose. Let's go to the Ouyang Family now."
The Ninth Princess made a decisive decision.
"Your Highness, you have just returned to the Divine Capital. Why not wait until tomorrow?"
"Moreover, you need to gather some elite warriors, otherwise the Ouyang Family..."
The words were left unfinished, but the Ninth Princess understood the implication.
The Ouyang Family was not an easy opponent.
Even for the Princess, what leverage did she have without power?
When the time came, if the Ouyang Family saw the Princess's "position" as weak, they would surely not agree.
The Ninth Princess's gaze swept across everyone present.
Finally, her eyes rested on Lu Changsheng.
"Mr. Lu, it seems we'll have to trouble you. You've just arrived in the Divine Capital and ought to rest for a few days, but the matter is urgent, and the Ouyang Family is very important to me..."
Lu Changsheng understood the Ninth Princess's implication.
"It's no problem, the matters at hand are important."
"Since I am now an advisor for the Princess Mansion, it is only right to share in the burdens."
Lu Changsheng responded slowly.
He did not refuse.
Now that he was in the Princess Mansion, there was no need for Lu Changsheng to be low-key.
Being excessively low-key would not gain him any divine objects.
He had to demonstrate his value to the Ninth Princess.
The higher his value, the more divine objects he could obtain from the Ninth Princess.
"Great, thank you for your help, Mr. Lu!"
A smile appeared on the Ninth Princess's face.
She was well aware that Lu Changsheng had laid down the foundation of a Reincarnation Divine Body.
A Divine Body Foundation possessed immense power.
With Lu Changsheng accompanying her to the Ouyang Family, the Ninth Princess felt more confident.
Soon, the carriage began to move slowly in the direction of the Ouyang Family.
The people from the Princess Mansion were quite astonished.
This time, the Ninth Princess was accompanied by few people.
The most important figure was apparently the newly recruited "Mr. Lu" at the Princess Mansion.
The people from the Princess Mansion weren't at all familiar with Lu Changsheng.
"Who is this Mr. Lu, to be held in such high regard by the Princess?"
