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

Just as Emperor Taikang was pondering how to seize the Qingyue Holy Land, he suddenly sensed a terrifying aura passing by not far from them.

The dark aura sent chills down the spines of all the emperors present, as if they were being targeted by some great terror.

Emperor Taikang's expression instantly turned extremely serious. He immediately released his divine sense to investigate the situation in the surrounding star field, and soon he sensed the dense power of the Heavenly Demon.

The power of the Heavenly Demon suppressed his divine sense, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. Emperor Taikang quickly withdrew his divine sense, his face turning deathly pale.

Seeing that Emperor Taikang was not in good condition, the other emperors immediately showed concern.

"Holy Son, what's wrong with you?"

"Holy Son, what have you discovered?"

"Holy Son, you sensed that terrifying aura as well, didn't you?"

……

Emperor Taikang remained silent, his gaze fixed on the direction of the Divine Moon Dynasty. He clearly sensed that the terrifying force was heading straight for the Divine Moon Dynasty.

Emperor Taikang thought to himself, "To leave behind such a dense amount of demonic power, the demon who went to the Divine Moon Dynasty must have been at least at the ninth level."

They had seen a ninth-level Heavenly Demon back in the Great Xia Dynasty, and the aura of the Heavenly Demon they just saw seemed even more terrifying than the ninth-level Heavenly Demon they had encountered in the Great Xia Dynasty...

Thinking of this, Emperor Taikang couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. With such a powerful demon appearing in the Central Star Region, he dared not imagine what would happen to the Central Star Region next.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Taikang said, "Everyone, return to the Qingyue Holy Land as quickly as possible!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Taikang prepared to speed up his return to Qingyue Holy Land. He felt he needed to go back early to make preparations, as the feeling he had just experienced from that Heavenly Demon was truly terrifying.

He had a premonition that the central star region would be very turbulent in the future.

However, just as Emperor Taikang finished speaking, a man's voice suddenly came from afar.

"You've really kept me waiting."

Upon hearing the voice, everyone was taken aback. Then, an emperor shouted, "Who goes there, playing tricks on us!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, a figure in white suddenly appeared in front of their immortal ship.

When everyone saw Lu Chen's appearance clearly, the emperors of Qingyue Holy Land were somewhat unable to accept it.

How did Lu Chen end up in front of them?

They used the Heavenly Rank Teleportation Array of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion and traveled at top speed, but Lu Chen actually got ahead of them.

Isn't there a dangerous cosmic abyss in front of the Great Xia Dynasty? How did Lu Chen cross that cosmic abyss?

Emperor Taikang looked at Lu Chen and asked, "How did you cross that cosmic abyss?"

They witnessed their own emperor transform into a demon when he crossed the cosmic abyss, and he was even a ninth-level emperor. How could Lu Chen have crossed that abyss without any problems?

The most crucial question is how Lu Chen managed to catch up so quickly, even getting ahead of them to block their path.

Lu Chen said calmly, "Once you join the Great Xia Dynasty, you'll know what's going on."

This……

Lu Chen's words stunned the emperor present once again.

Why would Lu Chen invite them to join the Great Xia Dynasty when he came to hunt them down?

Seeing the incredulous expressions on their faces, Lu Chen said directly, "You may not yet know the current state of the universe."

"Let me tell you directly, my clone has already wiped out most of the Great Emperors of the four major forces, led by the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, in the outer realms. Although the Divine Martial Emperor and the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion escaped, their power is waning, and soon the Great Xia Dynasty's fleet will march into the Central Star Region."

The emperors of the Qingyue Holy Land looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

Lu Chen's clone wiped out most of the Great Emperors of the four major forces led by Tianji Tower? Is that true?

If that's the case, I'm afraid that soon no superpower in the Central Star Region will dare to oppose the Great Xia Dynasty. Of course, there is another possibility: all the remaining superpowers will unite to fight against the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, given the strength Lu Chen has demonstrated so far, even if all the super powers were to unite, they might not be a match for the Great Xia Dynasty.

After hesitating for a moment, Emperor Taikang looked at the emperors who followed him behind him. These emperors had always followed him, and he could not make such a decision by himself.

At this moment, the emperors of Qingyue Holy Land looked at each other, and finally they all said to Emperor Taikang, "Holy Son, we will listen to you."

These emperors weren't fools. They knew very well that even if Lu Chen was lying, his clone hadn't wiped out the emperors of the four major powers in the outer realms. Given Lu Chen's current strength, their situation was equally dangerous.

If they don't surrender now, they'll probably face annihilation. And now that I think about it, the Great Xia Dynasty doesn't seem so bad after all.

The Great Xia Dynasty is now a top power in the universe, and those old holy lands may not be a match for it. In any case, the Qingyue Holy Land has no way to deal with the Great Xia Dynasty.

Moreover, they had just sensed a powerful demon appearing in the central star field. They didn't know what kind of storm would be stirred up in the central star field next, so finding a reliable backer at this time was a good choice for them.

Upon hearing the emperors say they would listen to him, Emperor Taikang immediately understood their thoughts; clearly, they had no intention of fighting.

Emperor Taikang then looked at Lu Chen in the distance and said, "Alright, we surrender to the Great Xia Dynasty."

Lu Chen was somewhat surprised. He had thought it would take some effort, but it was accomplished in just a few words.

Lu Chen then said, "Before you surrender, there is one more thing I need you to do."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Taikang frowned and immediately asked, "What is it?"

Emperor Taikang suspected that Lu Chen wanted them to submit a pledge of loyalty and to carry out some dangerous missions.

Lu Chen said, "Don't be nervous, you just need to unleash your divine senses."

Emperor Taikang looked at Lu Chen with a puzzled expression and released his divine sense.

What are you doing?

Normally, releasing one's divine sense means being controlled by the other party, but this universe does not have a way to control the Great Emperor, so the Great Emperor Taikang and the others do not understand why Lu Chen wants them to release their divine sense.

However, the emperor present did not hesitate and immediately released his divine sense.

Lu Chen then used the Soul Control Technique to leave a soul imprint deep within the souls of the emperors. When Emperor Taikang and the others sensed the imprint deep within their souls, they finally came to their senses.

Lu Chen can actually control the Emperor?!

It was too late for them to regret it. Emperor Taikang was somewhat helpless. How could he have forgotten that Lu Chen might be the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor?

Others may not have the means to control the Great Emperor, but that doesn't mean the reincarnated Heavenly Emperor doesn't either.
