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

Southern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The Imperial Palace of the Great Yan Dynasty.

In the imperial study, Wu Yunwan sat upright at her desk, dressed in a red imperial robe. She was tall and slender, with a dignified and aloof demeanor, and her eyes radiated a majestic aura that looked down upon all living beings.

At this moment, a guard knelt in the center of the imperial study, reporting on recent events in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

After listening to the scout's report, Wu Junwan asked indifferently, "Is there any further news about the Yellow Springs Sect?"

Upon hearing this, the scout immediately replied, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Yellow Springs Sect has been wiped out by the Pei family."

Wu Junwan chuckled and said, "The Pei family doesn't have that ability. The destruction of the Yellow Springs Sect is probably related to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."

"The people arrested by the Pei family are at most remnants of the Yellow Springs Cult."

At this moment, the scout kneeling on the ground asked, "Your Majesty, is there anything we should do next?"

Wu Junwan placed her jade-like fingers on the desk, gently tapping the surface, lost in thought and not answering immediately.

After a long pause, she finally spoke, "Send someone to Guangling City to find out what the Palace Master of Tianxuan Palace and the Prince of Zhennan discussed."

The scout immediately replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

The scout then stood up and continued, "This subordinate takes his leave."

After saying that, he left the Imperial Study immediately.

After the scouts left, Wu Junwan slowly got up, walked to the window of the imperial study, and looked at the red moon outside.

The moonlight illuminated her stunning face, her brows and eyes carrying a hint of imperial majesty, and the red moonlight made her appear even more alluring.

Wu Junwan muttered to herself, "The evil spirit within my body is becoming increasingly agitated. I'm afraid the ancient ruins will open soon. At this time, we absolutely cannot allow any accidents to occur."

The inheritance within the ancient ruins is of paramount importance to her. If she obtains it, her cultivation level may directly break through to the Heavenly Realm, or even to an even higher realm.

……

"Phew...that feels so good..." Lu Chen let out a long breath and looked down at Mu Yunxi, whose face was flushed.

At this moment, Mu Yunxi turned her head to the side, avoiding direct eye contact with Lu Chen.

At this moment, Lu Chen raised his hand and gently stroked her hair, finally saying, "Haven't you noticed that your cultivation has improved?"

Upon hearing Lu Chen's reminder, Mu Yunxi immediately realized what he meant.

Indeed, her cultivation level has loosened somewhat. Originally, she was at the early stage of the Profound Realm, but now she has vaguely touched the threshold of the middle stage of the Profound Realm, and it seems that she is about to break through at any time.

This surprised Mu Yunxi slightly. She thought that Lu Chen's so-called dual cultivation technique was just one-sided plunder, which was just to absorb yin to replenish yang.

But now it seems that things are not as she thought. This cultivation technique is actually beneficial to her. The opportunity that Lu Chen mentioned is actually true. But is Lu Chen really that kind?

She always felt there was some kind of conspiracy involved.

Mu Yunxi then turned her head slightly to look Lu Chen in the eyes, and asked, "What grade is this cultivation technique?"

Lu Chen answered directly: "Earth Realm cultivation technique."

Mu Yunxi fell into deep thought. Earth Realm cultivation techniques? She didn't seem to have heard of this kind of dual cultivation technique before.

Dual cultivation techniques are not well-received in this world, and very few people use them; high-level dual cultivation techniques are also rare.

Most dual cultivation techniques are predatory, but I never expected that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion would have a technique that benefits both parties.

It seems that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion does indeed have some foundation, which explains why it was able to produce a Heavenly Realm expert.

Seeing that Mu Yunxi remained silent, Lu Chen asked with a smile, "Are you willing to have my child now?" Hearing Lu Chen's question, Mu Yunxi instantly came to her senses.

Her feelings were somewhat complicated. She had a premonition that if she continued to cultivate with Lu Chen, then not only would it be impossible for her to break through to the late stage of the Profound Realm, but it wouldn't be impossible for her to even break through to the Earth Realm.

Moreover, this is a dual cultivation technique for the Earth Realm. If one continues to cultivate it, there may be a chance to reach the threshold of the Heaven Realm.

But she was indeed somewhat unwilling to have a child with this guy.

It's not that Lu Chen isn't handsome, or anything like that.

She was destined to leave the borderlands. Once the restrictions on the borderlands were lifted, she would head to the Heavenly Profound Holy Land.

She didn't want to have too many entanglements beforehand. If she really had a child, she would definitely have some reservations when leaving the borderlands, and might even not want to leave at all. After all, that child was her own flesh and blood.

Seeing that Mu Yunxi didn't speak, Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, you can take your time to think about it. We have plenty of time."

As he spoke, Lu Chen glanced to the side before opening the system interface.

"Congratulations, host, on your marriage. You are hereby rewarded with the Celestial Magic Treasure, the Purple Cloud Immortal Bell."

After glancing at the system rewards, Lu Chen closed the system interface and then continued working with Mu Yunxi.

……

With the destruction of the Yellow Springs Sect, the fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty gradually stabilized and did not continue to decline.

Lu Chen's life became simpler, and he spent his days cultivating with his wives and concubines. But no matter how hard Lu Chen tried, none of his women got pregnant.

On the one hand, it was because pregnancy was not easy for them in the first place, and on the other hand, Yun Yudie and the others did not want to have children. Only Ji Yunmeng was more enthusiastic, after all, she thought that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion could help her ascend the throne, so the child was very important to her.

Unfortunately, even though Lu Chen put a lot of effort into her, her stomach still didn't react.

And so, time passed day by day, and half a year went by in the blink of an eye.

In the past six months, Lu Chen has discovered that many unfamiliar forces have appeared in Guangling City.

Now that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has cooperated with the Tianxuan Palace, Lu Chen has basically guessed what's going on with these forces. He estimates that these forces are from the Central Plains or other places, not from the Borderlands. They are probably also after that ancient ruin.

Tianxuan Palace was aware of the situation in Guangling City. Ever since Chu Qingli and Lu Chen agreed to cooperate, Tianxuan Palace has sent many disciples to Guangling City to keep an eye on things.

As he expected, more and more forces from Zhongzhou came to Guangling City to inquire about the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. This made Chu Qingli very worried. She regretted that he hadn't gone to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion on his own initiative.

She knew that it was because she, as the palace master, personally went to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion that people suspected there was something special about it.

If she hadn't gone herself, and had only sent elders from Tianxuan Palace to Zhennan Prince's Mansion, probably no one would have suspected that they had any cooperation with Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

Furthermore, she discovered that the Great Zhou Dynasty seemed to be preparing to deal with their Tianxuan Palace, and the Great Zhou Dynasty's hostility towards Tianxuan Palace was likely due to her contact with the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

However, it's too late for regrets now. In order to prevent those forces from sabotaging the cooperation between Tianxuan Palace and Zhennan Prince's Mansion, Chu Qingli plans to personally go to Guangling City to oversee the situation and prevent those short-sighted forces from causing trouble.

……

The Great Zhou Dynasty, the Imperial Palace.

Under the moonlight, Pei Shuhua stood by the window, looking up at the moon.

Just then, Chen Min appeared behind him.

Sensing his presence, Pei Shuhua asked, "Have you figured out the strength of Tianxuan Palace?"

For the past six months, they have been trying to figure out the specific strength of Tianxuan Palace, including how many Earth Realm experts Tianxuan Palace has and what trump cards Tianxuan Palace has.

Tianxuan Palace is, after all, a force in Zhongzhou, and one sent by a holy land to the borderlands. It's always better to be cautious. (End of Chapter)
