I Slaughtered Through the Dungeon Worlds with My Cheats

"Hmm, go and make some preparations. We need to get up early for the court session tomorrow. Also, I'll be going out with the ancestor tomorrow after the court session, the exact time is not set yet."

"Also, pack up some necessary things in the residence; tomorrow we will be moving into the Eastern Palace." Mu Rufeng said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Liu Ming responded.

Liu Ming immediately went off to get busy.

"Xiao Gui." Mu Rufeng suddenly spoke.

"Your Highness, Xiao Gui is here." Immediately, Xiao Gui, who was waiting on the side, quickly stepped out.

"Go find Ye Lin, the chief disciple of the Sky Burial Palace, and tell him to bring his friends along, saying that I have something for them." Mu Rufeng gave the order.

"Yes, Your Highness." Xiao Gui immediately left.

"Xiao Cui, prepare some pastries, Spiritual Fruit, and Spiritual Tea. I'm going to host some guests." Mu Rufeng turned to Xiao Cui.

"Okay, Your Highness, I'll prepare them right away." Xiao Cui responded happily and went off to work.

If anyone were to be the happiest about the Ninth Prince becoming the Crown Prince, it would definitely be her.

An hour later.

It was now nine-thirty in the evening.

In the main hall, quite a few people were seated; counting them, there were twenty-six.

These were all the Level 7 and Level 8 Contractors in the country.

There were not many Level 8 Contractors, only six; the rest were Level 7 Contractors.

Mu Rufeng was acquainted with all these people, some truly personally, and others through information.

These were all Contractors from the reality world, domestically.

When Mu Rufeng asked Ye Lin to bring his friends, naturally, these were the people he brought.

He didn't care much about the foreign ones, but the domestic contractors, he must unite them under his banner.

If he could take these people under his command, he would have loyal, capable, and talented subordinates.

Just as his confidants were wiped out, this would make up for it.

"No need to serve, you all can leave." Mu Rufeng said to the maids and eunuchs standing on either side, waiting to serve.

"Yes, Your Highness!" The maids and eunuchs bowed and left.

"Xiao Cui, Hong Lian, Qing Ya, you three also may go," Mu Rufeng said to the three, glancing at them.

"Yes, Your Highness." The three looked a bit curious but said nothing, obediently withdrawing.

Then Mu Rufeng formed a spell, directly activating the array within the hall.

Feeling it wasn't secure enough, he took out an Array Plate and threw it, enveloping the hall again.

"Sorry, it's better if our conversation remains a bit secretive." Mu Rufeng said to everyone.

"Haha, Deputy Minister, you don't have to be so cautious. Anything we say concerning Contractors or related to the real world automatically transforms into ordinary words in the eyes of these natives." Long Ai laughed and said.

"Hmm? Is there such a saying?" Mu Rufeng was slightly stunned.

"Yes, I accidentally slipped once, but they didn't react, so I did a test and found it to be true." Long Ai said.

"Yes, Deputy Minister, rest assured, I've tested it too." Another Contractor spoke up.

Mu Rufeng looked towards Ye Lin, who also nodded: "Yes, it's like that, I've tried it too."

"That's good, His Majesty arranged a Protector for me, a Divine Realm Peak existence, I was worried they'd hear our conversation." Mu Rufeng felt relieved.

"Really envy the Deputy Minister, starting off as the Ninth Prince with a Level 9 Peak Protector." An older Contractor commented.

"Yes, look at me, exhausted from trekking across mountains and rivers, only to become a vice sect leader of a small sect, almost missing the banquet," Tian Youdao sighed.

"At least you're a sect leader; look at me, alone. My deceased master was an acquaintance of the Empress Dowager, that's why I was invited to the birthday feast." Han Chen said with a bitter face.

"Alright, alright, this isn't a contest of misfortune."

"I called you all here to invite you to join under my command."

"Tomorrow, barring any surprises, I will become the Crown Prince of the Da Li Dynasty. I've contributed a Void Spirit Fruit, and I estimate my father will soon enter seclusion, where I'll officially start overseeing the kingdom."

"Once my father breaks through to the Emperor Sovereign Realm, I'll immediately succeed the throne to become the Emperor of the Da Li Dynasty." Mu Rufeng said.

At these words, everyone was full of amazement.

Some were aware, but most were not.

After all, with their low status, they couldn't access such information.

"Really, Deputy Minister, you're going to become the Crown Prince?"

"Is it because of your cultivation, talent, and the contribution of the Void Spirit Fruit?"

"Possibly, since one needs to consider talent to become an emperor."

"Impressive, my Deputy Minister, and you're going to marry Miss Zhao Yanran, really enviable." Long Ai said, looking at Mu Rufeng with envy.

Long Ai was relatively young, so naturally, he spoke casually.

"You also know that my fifty thousand troops were designed to be completely wiped out, and my confidants were mostly depleted."

"So I want you to join under my command so that I can place you in important positions."

"Thus, I can better control the entire Da Li Dynasty and address the impending major events." Mu Rufeng said.

"No need to say more, I'll be the first to join, aiming for a high post, maybe Great General." Long Ai was the first to respond.
