Mythical Card Supplier: Starting with Nezha, the Third Lotus Prince

Chapter 1096 - 709: The True Purpose of the Royal Guard

Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes, really not knowing whether changing this plan was right or wrong.

Bixiao, this guy, truly isn't very reliable.

If only Bixiao was even one-tenth as steady as Yunxiao, Jiang Yuan wouldn't be so worried.

After shaking his head helplessly, Jiang Yuan returned to his own room.

Although Bixiao is his Card Spirit, the other party is ultimately a girl.

Additionally, judging from the previous Candle Dragon incident, the Primordial World seems to really exist.

Better not take advantage of the Card Spirit (meaning sleeping in the same room and not seeing the other as a girl) and get revenge from her real self later.

After all, Jiang Yuan did use her image.

He hasn't even mentioned it to others yet.

In this situation, Jiang Yuan still felt rather guilty.

"Are you too here to join the Royal Guard selection?"

Just as Jiang Yuan closed Bixiao's room door, an unpleasant voice sounded.

Turning his head to look, Jiang Yuan saw a young undead clan member watching him with interest.

Jiang Yuan looked at his own outfit curiously; it seemed fine, so why was he looking at me like that?

"What do you want?"

"How about a duel? If you can't even beat me, there's no need for you to join the Royal Guard selection."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

Jiang Yuan slightly furrowed his brows, somewhat puzzled.

Not puzzled by his words, but unclear about his intent.

Does he look that much like he's here for the Royal Guard selection?

"You don't need to bother about that, just say if you're in or not."

The youth looked at Jiang Yuan strangely, believing he made his meaning quite clear.

It's just a battle. If he loses, he won't need to join the Royal Guard selection.

Is that hard to grasp?

Is he a fool?

Thinking this, Grugar grew a bit impatient; any random person dared to come join the Royal Guard selection competition.

"Nope."

Jiang Yuan, giving him a look as though he were a fool, directly refused, then turned to head to his room.

"Huh?"

Grugar paused, had he just been scorned by a fool?

"Haha!"

Realizing the situation, Grugar started laughing despite himself.

Turns out when people are speechless to the extreme, they do laugh.

"Without confidence to even defeat me, how do you dare join the Royal Guard selection?"

"Why should I defeat you? I'll just defeat the other competitors."

Jiang Yuan, looking at him disdainfully, spoke somewhat displeased.

Grugar paused.

The fellow had a point!

Maybe he's not a fool?

Whether or not he's a fool, whether or not he's right, the task Second Prince gave still had to be completed.

"If you manage to beat me, how about I offer you a bright future?"

"What kind of future?"

Talking about this, Jiang Yuan grew interested.

What bright future? Is there a Golden Quality Card to be had?

"That's for when you beat me."

Seeing Jiang Yuan's demeanor, Grugar's face once again showed off arrogance.

He was working for the Second Prince!

Honestly though, this task wasn't very noble.

Because the Second Prince said to challenge those who came to join the Royal Guard selection.

Telling those who came for the Royal Guard selection that if they couldn't challenge them, then they shouldn't participate.

And those selected, their prowess was undoubtedly very strong.

If unable to defeat them, they shouldn't continue the Royal Guard selection.

If successfully defeating them, then attempt to recruit these strong ones.

Ultimately, they must not allow Gudusidan any useful people!

That was the Second Prince's plan.

However, Jiang Yuan was unaware of it; after hearing the words, he entered his room without a backward glance.

Kidding me? Promising me pie?

When I was promised pie, I hadn't crossed over into this world.

The pie you're selling falls short compared to my boss's!

Seeing Jiang Yuan enter his room without looking back, Grugar was stunned.

What was going on? Usually those words made others eager to fight him.

That was a bright future—who could refuse a bright future?

He couldn't really be a fool, right?

Feeling this, Grugar showed a sympathetical expression.

If he's a fool, then forget it.

Anyway, the Third Prince won't want a fool as his guard team member... right?

Grugar departed.

Continuing to seek other possible Royal Guard selection contestants.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuan returned to his room and opened the Undead Clan terminal, starting to investigate news about this Royal Guard selection.

That guy just now was obviously off.

After searching online for a while, Jiang Yuan finally understood the situation.

This time there are five princes of the Undead Royal Family, all eligible for the throne.

Thus, in the world of the Undead Clan, the five princes continuously vie with each other.

Even the Royal Guard selection is this way.

This is the first batch for the Royal Guard selection.

And the Eldest Prince and Second Prince's Royal Guard selections have finished.

The information Jiang Yaoyang received wasn't very accurate.

What he mentioned was indeed when the Royal Guard selection ended.

Before the Royal Guard selection ended, it was for choosing Old Five's guard team.

The selection for the guard team for Old Three, Gudusidan, starts tomorrow.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan didn't hesitate, immediately input his identity information and successfully registered.

Regardless, for the Third Prince Gudusidan, Jiang Yuan was quite familiar.

After all, he's the guy Jiang Yuan tried to kill multiple times without success.

First, join under his command, and if exposed, still capable of threatening him.

Being familiar, it's easier to kill him without interruptions.

Once Jiang Yuan registered, he recalled the youth who confronted him earlier.

Thinking it over, something seemed off.

Considering the struggles between the five princes.

Perhaps the answer was clear.

Just unfortunate, he didn't know who was behind the other.

If he knew, maybe he could scheme something?

But even now, it's not impossible.

How to achieve the most benefit from their cracks?

Jiang Yuan began contemplating.

Meanwhile, in the castle at the center of Royal City, Gudusidan was lonelily looking at the moon.

"Second Brother acted again."

"I really don't want to deal with him."

"Always doing sneaky things."

"Why bother flaunting small cleverness?"

Gudusidan pondered: "Does he truly think I don't know what he's doing?"

"Even if all participants for this Royal Guard selection give up, so what?"

"This prince could still find ten people from elsewhere to guard my safety."

"To serve as Royal Guard, as long as they are strong enough, that's sufficient."

Gudusidan mused aloud, shaking his head: "Second Brother, why can't you understand?"

"The Royal Guard requires not combat power, but loyalty."

"Know why we get Royal Guard through selection?"

"Why not choose more loyal, Undead Clan raised from young to be Royal Guard?"

"It tests our ability."

Gudusidan chuckled: "Whoever first utilized the loyalty of those selected, who is truly capable."

"Comparatively, combat power is secondary."

"Among the four siblings, only you seem to not grasp it."

Gudusidan said, sighed, then looked at the moon, seemingly in thought.

"Shi Ji, I miss you."

"I feel as though you're beside me, not far."
