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

Seeing that Lu Chen remained silent, Xiao Xueying slightly rose, placed her hands on either side of Lu Chen's chest, and gazed at him with her beautiful eyes.

When Xiao Xueying looked up, her messy hair slipped from her shoulders onto Lu Chen's chest, obscuring half of her beautiful face.

Lu Chen raised his hand and brushed Xiao Xueying's fallen hair behind her ear.

Xiao Xueying asked, "Junior Brother... what are you thinking about?"

Xiao Xueying was still a little unaccustomed to calling Lu Chen "Junior Brother," after all, she knew Lu Chen's true identity. However, in order not to expose Lu Chen's identity, Xiao Xueying forced herself to call Lu Chen that.

Lu Chen gazed at Xiao Xueying's beautiful face and said with a smile, "I wasn't thinking about anything."

Xiao Xueying then asked, "Junior brother, are you worried about your sisters?"

Xiao Xueying thought that Lu Chen's wives and concubines were still in the Chaos Sea, and perhaps he was worried about their safety.

Lu Chen said, "A little."

Xiao Xueying then asked, "So, what are your plans next, Junior Brother?"

Lu Chen stroked Xiao Xueying's beautiful face and replied, "I will stay in Xuan Yue Palace for a while. After I break through to the Immortal King realm, I will leave Xuan Yue Palace to develop my own power."

At this point, Lu Chen gazed into Xiao Xueying's beautiful eyes and said with a smile, "Senior Sister will probably come with me, right?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Xiao Xueying's jade-like cheeks flushed. Wasn't Lu Chen asking a question he already knew the answer to? She had already given herself to him and become his woman, so of course she had to follow him.

Xiao Xueying then said, "From now on, wherever my junior brother goes, I will go too."

Lu Chen smiled slightly, "I owe my return this time to my senior sister. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would have gone mad from practicing qi cultivation."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Xiao Xueying recalled what had happened earlier, and her cheeks instantly became burning hot.

She's lived for over a billion years and isn't a child anymore. She can tell that Lu Chen might be trying to fool her, but Lu Chen is the man she admires, so she's willing to be fooled by him.

Xiao Xueying said, "If... if Junior Brother has too much masculine energy in his body in the future, he can ask Senior Sister for help."

Lu Chen said, "Then thank you very much, Senior Sister."

As they were talking, Lu Chen realized that they had arrived at Sirius City.

"Senior sister, we've arrived."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xueying slowly got up from Lu Chen. Just moments ago, the two had been in an intimate relationship, and the instant Xiao Xueying stood up, she felt a sudden emptiness in her heart.

Seeing Xiao Xueying's reluctant expression, Lu Chen said, "Senior Sister, there's still plenty of time. We'll have many opportunities to cultivate together in the future."

Immortals do not have menstrual blood; they can engage in dual cultivation whenever they wish.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Xiao Xueying's cheeks flushed even more, and even her ears turned bright red. She simply hummed softly, and then raised her hand, revealing a purple dress on her body.

Lu Chen also got out of bed. After changing into a white outfit, he put away his immortal ship and flew over Tianlang City without hesitation.

Now that it has been basically confirmed that these families in Sirius City are colluding with the Crimson Flame Sect, there's nothing more to say; let's just take action.

As for collecting evidence, he'll have it once he arrests the city lord and these aristocratic families.

At this moment.

The heads of various noble families were waiting for Sikong Youpeng to return to the city lord's mansion.

Ding Qingfeng sat in the main seat, leisurely sipping his tea.

One of the family heads said, "Two days have passed, those disciples from Xuan Yue Palace should be dead by now."

Upon hearing this, Ding Qingfeng put down his teacup and said with a smile, "With the elders of the Crimson Flame Sect taking action, everything will be foolproof. We just need to wait for the Crimson Flame Sect to bring Sky Wolf City under the rule of the Profound Moon Palace."

As soon as Ding Qingfeng finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the sky, "Ding Qingfeng, the city lord of Tianlang City, and the heads of various major families have betrayed the Xuan Yue Palace, colluded with the Chi Yan Sect, and attempted to kill the Xuan Yue Palace's special envoy. These people are now on trial."

Upon hearing this voice, Ding Qingfeng and the other family heads turned deathly pale, their bodies drenched in cold sweat.

Ding Qingfeng trembled as he said, "This...how is this possible..."

"Why did the Xuan Yue Palace send people so quickly!"

At this moment, Ding Qingfeng and the others did not know that the voice just now came from Lu Chen. They thought that Xuan Yue Palace had sent someone else.

Chaos erupted in the city lord's council hall. "City lord, what do we do now? The Xuan Yue Palace sent people so quickly!"

"This is it!"

"How did they arrive so quickly, in just two days!"

"Lord of the City! Quickly, send the elders of the Crimson Flame Sect to rescue us!"

……

Ding Qingfeng snapped out of his panic and quickly took out the jade pendant that Sikong Youpeng had given him before he left. As long as he activated the jade pendant, he would be able to contact Sikong Youpeng. Now they could only hope that the Crimson Flame Sect would send someone to rescue them.

After taking out the jade pendant, Ding Qingfeng poured spiritual energy into it, attempting to use it to contact Sikong Youpeng.

However, when the spiritual energy entered the jade pendant, it did not react at all.

Ding Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, unable to believe it was true. He poured spiritual energy into the jade pendant again, but the jade pendant still did not react.

Ding Qingfeng's face was filled with horror. "How could this be! Impossible, absolutely impossible!!!"

Ding Qingfeng refused to believe it was true, so he continuously poured spiritual energy into the jade pendant, falling into a state of frenzy until the jade pendant exploded, at which point Ding Qingfeng finally came to his senses.

Looking at the jade pendant shattered into pieces in his hand, Ding Qingfeng slid off his seat and knelt on the ground. "It's over, all over..."

Although he could barely be considered an immortal, his strength was no match for the immortals of the Xuan Yue Palace, and he didn't believe he could escape their grasp.

The next moment, he discovered that the entire Sirius City was enclosed by a huge array.

Amidst the chaos in the main hall, Lu Chen appeared with Xiao Xueying. Seeing that Lu Chen had actually returned alive, Ding Qingfeng's pupils constricted slightly, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "You...you're not dead! How could this be?!"

He thought it would be easy for the elders of the Crimson Flame Sect to kill a disciple of the Profound Moon Palace, but he never expected that Lu Chen was not dead at all.

If he didn't die, wouldn't that mean that the elder of the Crimson Flame Sect was the one who got into trouble?

Lu Chen glanced at the people in the hall, then sneered and said, "Everyone's here."

Some heads of prominent families immediately knelt down.

"Please spare my life, Your Excellency!"

"It was all the Crimson Flame Sect's doing that forced us; we had no choice!"

"My lord, I have never betrayed the Xuan Yue Palace; it's all Ding Qingfeng's fault!"

……

In an instant, some begged for mercy, while others shifted the blame. Even the elders of the Crimson Flame Sect were no match for this special envoy; they did not believe that they could deal with Lu Chen if they joined forces.

For them at that moment, the only way to survive was to beg for mercy.

Lu Chen immediately released his oppressive aura, and the moment it descended, these people were pinned to the ground, unable to move. (End of Chapter)
