More children, more blessings, starting from marrying a wife to fight for world hegemony

The Bureau of Suppressing Demons and Monsters is responsible for supervising all spiritual warriors in the world, as well as slaying demons, eliminating evil spirits, and suppressing strange and malevolent beings. They have a lot of responsibilities.

Now that the Zhou royal family has put the hot potato of the Prince of Zhennan to the Zhengui Division, hoping to use the Zhengui Division to get rid of Lu Chen, the Zhengui Division is naturally unwilling to take on this task.

The commander of the Zhengui Division was no fool. He knew perfectly well that if something happened to the Prince of Zhennan, the Prince of Zhennan's mansion would retaliate against the Zhengui Division first, and then go after the Zhou royal family.

Although the Zhengui Division is full of powerful individuals, its overall strength is not yet sufficient to rival the entire Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

If the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion were to retaliate against the Zhengui Division, the Zhengui Division would surely suffer. By the time the royal family's powerful figures realized what was happening, the entire Zhengui Division would probably have been razed to the ground by the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.

Upon hearing Zhao Yu's words, Lu Chen said, "It's not exactly a good thing either. I still plan to fight against the strange and evil spirits in order to find a breakthrough opportunity."

This……

Zhao Yu and the other two were stunned for a moment.

After regaining his senses, Lu Xun immediately reminded him, "Your Highness, you don't need to come into contact with the strange and evil spirits outside. Our Zhennan Prince's Mansion keeps some strange and evil spirits. You can use those strange and evil spirits to practice your skills."

Lu Chen said, "I've been to the dungeon and seen those strange and evil spirits. They've all lost their ferocity, so fighting them probably won't be very effective."

The main reason why the Prince of Zhennan kept strange and evil spirits was to use them as consumables for martial arts training. Therefore, the Prince of Zhennan did not treat these strange and evil spirits well. They only needed to keep them alive, which made them look listless and like they were about to die.

These eerie and malevolent spirits have virtually no fighting power. Lu Chen fought those vengeful spirits a few days ago, and their strength was indeed quite weak.

Lu Xun and the other two understood that the strangeness of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion could not meet Lu Chen's combat needs, but staying in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion was safer. Their first consideration was Lu Chen's safety, and only then would they consider helping Lu Chen improve his cultivation level.

As long as Lu Chen is alive, the entire Zhennan Prince's Mansion will not fall apart. As for Lu Chen's strength, it is not particularly important. All of them, the Earth Realm experts, can even contend with the Zhou royal family. Lu Chen only needs to stay in Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

Zhao Yu suddenly thought of something and said, "Your Highness, what you said is easy to solve. We can send our guards outside the city to capture some strange and evil spirits for you to practice on."

The Prince of Zhennan's mansion isn't short of people; if they wanted to go outside the city to capture some vicious and eerie spirits, it wouldn't be an easy task.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, then said, "That's fine too."

Lu Chen's main reason for wanting to go out was not entirely to fight against the strange and evil spirits; he also wanted to see if he could encounter other strange progenitors.

Although he had given the list to the secret guards and asked them to investigate whether those strange progenitors existed in this world, no one could say for sure that those strange progenitors might change their names in this world. If they didn't use their original names, then no matter how the secret guards investigated, it would be difficult to find those strange progenitors.

For example, Ji Yunmeng is called Yunmeng Immortal Venerable in the Burial Furnace and Yunmeng Ghost Emperor in the Ghost Realm. Bai Qingqing and Pei Shuhua also have other names in the Ghost Realm. Therefore, even in this world, the names of other Ghost Ancestors may not be their original names.

……

The Bureau of Deception and Strange Tales.

The Zhengui Division occupies a very large area. In the entire capital city, there are three places whose area far exceeds that of other mansions or institutions: the Imperial Palace, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and the Zhengui Division.

The Bureau of Demon Suppression not only slays demons and monsters but also oversees all spiritual warriors in the land, resulting in a large manpower base. Most importantly, the Bureau imprisons many strange and evil spirits every year, leading to its annual expansion. On a nine-story tower within the Bureau of Demon Suppression, a middle-aged man in a black brocade robe, a demon-slaying sword at his waist, stands atop the pavilion, gazing upon the bustling capital city.

At this moment, several commanders of the Zhengui Guard came up behind the man.

"We pay our respects to the Commander!"

The man didn't turn his head, but simply gave a faint "hmm".

The officers immediately looked up. At this moment, Fan Yaodong, the commander of the Zhengui Guard, spoke up: "Have you sent a message to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion?"

A commander said, "My lord, I just went to the Prince of Zhennan's residence in person and told the servants what you said."

Fan Yaodong said, "That's good."

At this moment, a commander said, "Sir, if you are worried that Lu Chen will cause trouble after coming to the Zhengui Division, why not arrange a clerical position for him? As long as he doesn't leave the Zhengui Division, no one should be able to harm him."

With Earth Realm experts stationed at the Town of Ghosts, they can sense even the slightest disturbance. As long as Lu Chen doesn't leave the Town of Ghosts, it won't be easy for those assassins to attack him under the noses of these Earth Realm experts.

At this moment, another Zhengui Guard said, "Sir, since the Zhennan Prince's Mansion dares to accept the imperial decree, they must have made thorough preparations. They will definitely arrange a powerful Earth Realm expert to protect Lu Chen, so you don't need to worry too much."

Ever since Fan Yaodong heard that the Zhou Emperor had ordered Lu Chen to come to the Zhengui Division, Fan Yaodong had been worried and felt that the Zhengui Division was in great danger.

Hearing what the commanders said, Fan Yaodong turned his head and glanced at them, then said, "You're thinking too simply."

"This involves court intrigue. Now that His Majesty supports the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, the Zhengui Division could face utter ruin no matter which side it sides with."

If something happens to Lu Chen, the Zhen Gui Si will have offended the imperial faction. If the Zhou Emperor regains power, the Zhen Gui Si will surely be purged. Moreover, they may be wiped out by the Zhennan Prince's Mansion before the Zhou Emperor even gets to purge them.

If Lu Chen continues to behave well in the Zhen Gui Si, then the Zhen Gui Si will offend the Empress Dowager and her faction. The Zhen Gui Si will not have a good life either, since the Empress Dowager is now in power, and it would be too easy for her to cause trouble for the Zhen Gui Si.

Fan Yaodong was now feeling extremely overwhelmed. Since he became the commander, he had always remained neutral and had never sided with any faction in the court. He never expected that the fire of court struggle would now spread to the Zhengui Division.

Just then, a guard from the Zhengui Guard entered the pavilion and said, "Sir, Princess Yun'an has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Fan Yaodong glanced at the few commanders and then said, "You may all leave now."

Several commanders of the Zhengui Division respectfully said, "We take our leave."

After they left, Ji Yunmeng soon appeared in the pavilion. Fan Yaodong specially had someone brew a pot of tea, and he personally poured a cup of tea for Ji Yunmeng, then respectfully said, "May I ask what brings Your Highness to the Zhengui Division today?"

In the past, when Ji Yunmeng came to the Bureau of Demon Suppression, it was definitely to accept missions from the Bureau of Demon Suppression and then go out to kill strange and evil spirits to improve her strength.

However, Ji Yunmeng's arrival today might not necessarily be for a mission from the Zhengui Division. (End of Chapter)
