The Second Prince's expression changed; he had clearly considered this possibility as well.
Speaking of which, the Crown Prince was overly confident today. If he had divided his forces to simultaneously confront several brothers, rather than bringing the Peacock Ming King, the Lion Tribe, the Tiger Tribe, and other helpers all together, he would certainly not have been the Second Prince's opponent.
However, on second thought, even if he defeated me, he would still have to confront Zu An, that monster. Ultimately, he would just be paving the way for someone else's success.
"Peacock Ming King, please bear witness," the Second Prince said, now calm. "It wasn't I who sought to kill the Crown Prince; rather, the Crown Prince sought to kill me. I was merely acting in self-defense." He clearly understood that the throne was no longer an option, and saving his own life would suffice. As the saying goes, 'where there's life, there's hope.'
Some people died, but not completely...
He took deep breaths of fresh air, his chest heaving. Confusion, bewilderment, and various other emotions flooded his mind. "Where is this?"
Then, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, becoming even more bewildered. A single dormitory room? Even if he had been successfully rescued, he should be in a hospital room now. And his body... how could it have no injuries at all?
Puzzled, Shi Yu's gaze quickly swept across the room, finally resting on a mirror by the bedside. The mirror reflected his current appearance: he looked about seventeen or eighteen years old and was very handsome. His previous self had been a handsome young man in his twenties with an extraordinary demeanor, who had been working for some time. But now, this appearance looked no older than a high school student.
This change left Shi Yu in a daze for a long time. "Please don't tell me the surgery was a success..." His body and face had both changed; this wasn't a matter of surgery at all, but rather immortal magic. He had completely turned into another person! Could it be... that he had transmigrated?
Besides the mirror by the bedside, whose placement clearly indicated bad feng shui, Shi Yu also found three books nearby. Shi Yu picked them up and saw the titles, which instantly rendered him speechless.
*The Novice Beast Trainer's Essential Breeding Manual**Post-Natal Care for Pet Beasts**A Guide to Evaluating Beast-Eared Girls of Different Races*
Shi Yu: ???
The titles of the first two books were somewhat normal, but what was up with the last one?
"Cough."
Shi Yu's gaze sharpened, and he reached out, but his arm quickly stiffened. Just as he was about to open the third book to see what it was, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his brain, and a flood of memories surged forth.
