Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

After Lu Chen returned to Xin Yue Palace, Yue Zheng arranged a huge mansion for him, with tens of thousands of servants, which shows how much Xin Yue Palace valued Lu Chen.

Furthermore, there is a superior spiritual vein underground where Lu Chen's mansion is located, with extremely rich spiritual energy.

In order to enable Lu Chen to break through to the Saint Realm as soon as possible, in addition to sufficient cultivation resources, Emperor Yanyue also provided Lu Chen with a lot of cultivation techniques.

The Moon-Covering Emperor did not force Lu Chen to cultivate any techniques. In the Moon-Covering Emperor's view, Lu Chen's talent was likely due to a destiny bestowed upon him. Moreover, Lu Chen's luck was so strong that he did not need her guidance at all.

If she forcibly interferes with Lu Chen's cultivation path, it might backfire and affect Lu Chen's cultivation.

She simply let Lu Chen cultivate on his own. If Lu Chen had any questions about cultivation, he could come to her for guidance.

The news that a sixteen-year-old cultivator at the Returning Void Realm had arrived at the Heart Moon Palace quickly spread throughout the entire Cloud Flower Palace. When the other palace masters heard of Lu Chen's existence, they all rushed to the Cloud Flower Palace to verify the authenticity of the news.

When the palace masters saw Lu Chen, they were all extremely shocked, and at the same time, they were very envious of Emperor Yanyue.

Emperor Yanyue went out for training with the Holy Maiden and actually encountered a disciple with such high talent.

Almost all the palace masters believed that once the palace master emerged from seclusion, Lu Chen would most likely be designated as a holy son and groomed by the palace master.

Compared to the current Holy Maiden, Lu Chen's talent is clearly superior.

Meanwhile, the news also reached the ears of Emperor Xuanming, the master of Tianyue Palace.

Tianyue Hall.

A death trap.

Inside the valley, black mist swirled, and animal bones were scattered everywhere.

In the center of the valley, there is a circular formation, and at the center of the formation is a great emperor emanating black energy.

He was the master of Tianyue Palace, Emperor Xuanming.

At this moment, outside the formation, Liang Hong knelt on the ground and told Emperor Xuanming about the recent events, especially about Lu Chen.

After hearing about Lu Chen's situation, the black energy on Emperor Xuanming's body began to surge violently, and the entire valley was instantly filled with all sorts of ghostly wails and howls.

Emperor Xuanming opened his scarlet eyes, sneered, and said, "Yanyue, you're really lucky. You went out and picked up a disciple with such good talent."

Seeing that the Xuanming Emperor was angry, Liang Hong quickly said, "Palace Master, the young master has already broken through to the Saint Realm. No matter how good Lu Chen's talent is, he cannot compare with the young master."

"Perhaps Lu Chen just encountered some kind of opportunity, which is why his strength has improved so quickly."

The Xuanming Emperor glanced at Liang Hong expressionlessly and said indifferently, "You don't need to tell me these things. Whether his talent is high or low is irrelevant to me. In any case, the position of Holy Son can only belong to my son."

Upon hearing Emperor Xuanming's words, Liang Hong was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood what Emperor Xuanming meant. However, he said with some concern, "Palace Master, Lu Chen has been staying in Xinyue Palace. Before the Palace Master comes out of seclusion, he most likely will not leave Xinyue Palace."

Liang Hong was reminding the Xuanming Emperor that if he wanted to take action against Lu Chen, he would probably have to get past the Yanyue Emperor.

Although Emperor Yanyue's main body is not in Yunhua Palace, once Emperor Xuanming and Emperor Yanyue's secondary body start fighting, the palace master who is currently in seclusion will definitely sense it.

Once the Palace Master emerges from seclusion, their plan to eliminate Lu Chen will fall through. Instead, the Palace Master will learn of Lu Chen's existence in advance and choose to make Lu Chen the Holy Son.

Despite Liang Hong's reminder, the Xuanming Emperor remained unmoved, saying, "You don't need to worry about this matter; I have my own solution."

Seeing that the Xuanming Emperor had said so, Liang Hong said no more. "Yes, Palace Master."

The Xuanming Emperor then said, "Alright, go down."

Liang Hong then bowed and left the deathly valley.

After Liang Hong left, the Xuanming Emperor looked in the direction of the Heart Moon Palace and muttered to himself, "No one can take away my son's position as Holy Son."

As soon as he finished speaking, a smile appeared on the face of the Xuanming Emperor. Then, the wandering souls in the valley became even more restless, and the entire valley was once again filled with the sounds of ghosts wailing and howling.

After leaving the valley, Liang Hong trembled uncontrollably upon hearing the voice behind him.

He couldn't understand why Emperor Xuanming didn't seem worried at all. Emperor Xuanming was clearly very dissatisfied with the Palace Master's choice of Lie Hongyun as the Holy Maiden from the beginning, and now that his son's position as Holy Son was about to be taken away, Emperor Xuanming was not flustered at all.

At this moment.

Tianyue Palace, a luxurious mansion.

A young man dressed in white stood in the pavilion, listening to a report from a disciple outside.

The young man's face was somewhat gloomy, and he remained silent while the disciples outside the pavilion reported.

After a long pause, the young man finally spoke, "A sixteen-year-old at the Returning Void Realm, that's quite interesting."

Su Hongxuan had already heard from Liang Hong that a sixteen-year-old Guixu Realm cultivator had come to Xinyue Palace, but Su Hongxuan did not believe it at first.

In his view, someone who could become a cultivator at the Guixu Realm at this age was most likely an avatar of a quasi-emperor, and that person must have come to Yunhua Palace with some ulterior motive.

However, during this period of time, many palace masters have gone to Yunhua Palace to verify that Lu Chen is indeed only sixteen years old, and his soul appears to be complete, unlike a clone.

The palace masters of Yunhua Palace are all Great Emperors. If it were just one Great Emperor like Emperor Yanyue who was mistaken, that would be understandable. But since so many Great Emperors believe that Lu Chen is not an avatar and is indeed only sixteen years old, it proves that this must be true.

This made Su Hongxuan feel threatened. His father had finally managed to get the palace master to reluctantly agree to establish another holy son in Yunhua Palace, but now someone with such high talent had suddenly appeared. Wouldn't his chances of becoming the holy son be completely gone?

No, Lu Chen cannot live.

We must eliminate him before the Palace Master emerges from seclusion.

However, since Lu Chen has been staying in the Heart Moon Palace, it might be difficult to make a move...

Fortunately, the Palace Master had only recently gone into seclusion. Judging from the time frame of his seclusion, he probably wouldn't emerge for at least a hundred years, so he had ample time to eliminate Lu Chen.

While Su Hongxuan was thinking about how to get rid of Lu Chen, Lu Chen was also thinking about how to leave Xinyue Palace and cause trouble at Tianyue Palace.

In the quiet bamboo forest, Lu Chen sat upright on a futon, with two Saint Realm maids not far behind him.

These two maids were specially arranged by Emperor Yanyue to protect him. Of course, for Lu Chen, these two saintly maids were a big problem.

If he wanted to leave Xinyue Palace, these two maids would definitely stop him and prevent him from leaving.

Lu Chen thought to himself, "The Lord of Tianyue Palace should already know about my existence, so why hasn't he sent anyone to cause me trouble yet?"

Lu Chen was somewhat worried that if the time dragged on too long, Empress Dusheng would discover that his body was an avatar after she emerged from seclusion.

During his time at Yunhua Palace, Lu Chen gained some understanding of Empress Dusheng, who was rumored to have also followed the Path of Life.

Although Empress Dusheng's path to life is different from his, they lead to the same goal and must have similarities.

While other emperors might not notice, Empress Dusheng is very likely to sense the unusual nature of his body. (End of Chapter)
