Wu Qi asked coldly, "Have you already made up your mind?"

Wu Qi glanced at Lu Chen and saw that Lu Chen was absent-minded and yawning. Wu Qi's expression became even more unpleasant.

At this moment, Ji Yunmeng spoke up, "I have already told you the location of the ancient ruins. If you want to go in, then go in directly."

Upon hearing Ji Yunmeng's words, Wu Qi sneered and said, "Even if you didn't tell us, we could still find the location of the ancient ruins. What we need is the method to enter the ruins."

After Sun Bai led the people of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty into the borderlands, he quickly learned the location of the ancient ruins.

However, when they arrived at the entrance to the ancient ruins, they discovered that their people were unable to enter.

Their soldiers would instantly turn to ashes the moment they came into contact with the black, unknown power at the entrance to the ancient ruins.

However, their investigation revealed that no one from any of the foreign forces could enter; only Ji Yunmeng and the people from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion had ever entered the ancient ruins.

Therefore, they concluded that Ji Yunmeng must possess some method to enter the ruins.

In their view, if they knew how to enter the ruins, perhaps they could also get in.

So Sun Bai sent Wu Qi to the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, demanding that Ji Yunmeng reveal the method to enter the ancient ruins, or they would destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Sun Bai had already found out about the situation in Da Zhou and knew that Da Zhou had several Heavenly Realm experts. However, Sun Bai did not take it to heart. They also had quite a few Heavenly Realm experts who had entered the borderlands. In terms of sheer numbers, they had more Heavenly Realm experts than Da Zhou.

Moreover, these Heavenly Realm cultivators are merely from the remote wilderness. Even if they break through to the Heavenly Realm, their strength is probably not that great.

Therefore, Sun Bai did not regard the Great Zhou as a threat.

Upon hearing Wu Qi's words, Ji Yunmeng replied without changing her expression, "To enter that ancient ruin, no special method is needed, but not everyone can enter. Only those with special physical attributes can go in."

Wu Qi was stunned for a moment. A special physique? Really?

He quickly realized that some ancient ruins or secret realms in Zhongzhou did indeed require a special physique to enter.

The secret realms left behind by powerful beings are often used to select successors, so they will set up restrictions according to their own preferences so that only those who meet the conditions can enter the secret realms they left behind.

That makes sense, but in that case, wouldn't they be unable to enter the ancient ruins to search for ancient heritage?

Thinking of this, Wu Qi instantly realized what was going on. He stared intently at Ji Yunmeng on the dragon throne and then said, "I've heard that you've entered the ancient ruins, which proves that your physique meets the requirements of this secret realm."

"In that case, you will help us find the ancient heritage inside and bring it out to us."

"The Great Yan can give you a chance to become a subordinate force of the Great Yan."

Hearing Wu Qi's condescending words, Ji Yunmeng clenched her fists slightly, and immediately wanted to attack Wu Qi.

As the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she also had pride. Since she became Empress, apart from Lu Chen, no one had ever dared to speak to her in such a tone.

Sensing the killing intent in Ji Yunmeng's eyes, Wu Qi sneered and said, "What? You still want to attack me? Do you really think that just because you've reached the Heavenly Realm, you can contend with the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty?"

Just then, Lu Chen released his aura without warning. The aura was directed at Wu Qi, who was immediately forced to kneel on the ground by the pressure of the King Realm, unable to move.

Sensing this terrifying pressure, Wu Qi's expression changed drastically, his pupils contracted sharply, and he said in disbelief, "King...King Realm?"

How is that possible?

The fact that a Celestial Realm could appear in the desolate borderlands was already surprising.

However, the Heavenly Realm can still be somewhat explained, since the restrictions on the borderlands are gradually disappearing.

With so many people in the borderlands, there are bound to be one or two with talent.

But in their view, it was absolutely impossible for a king to appear in such a place.

Breaking through to the King Realm requires consuming a large amount of resources. Even in the Central Continent, breaking through to the King Realm is not easy, let alone in such a remote place where spiritual energy is scarce.

This man could not possibly be from the borderlands; he probably came from the Central Plains. It seems that some forces from the Central Plains had taken control of the Great Zhou Dynasty before them.

No wonder the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty lay in this man's arms, remaining unmoved as he touched her inappropriately.

Wu Qi gritted his teeth and asked coldly, "Who are you? And why are you able to enter the borderlands?"

Wu Qi couldn't help but wonder if the restrictions on the borderlands had weakened after they left Zhongzhou, allowing even those at the King level to enter.

If that's the case, then the King-level experts of their Great Yan Immortal Dynasty will soon be able to enter the borderlands.

Upon hearing Wu Qi's words, Lu Chen calmly replied, "I am originally from the borderlands, so what makes you think I've entered the borderlands?"

Wu Qi immediately said, "Impossible, you could never be a barbarian from the frontier."

He didn't believe that a native of the desolate borderlands could break through to the King Realm in such a godforsaken place, and judging from this person's appearance, he was probably not even 50 years old.

Wang Jing is 50 years old? Are you kidding me?

If what this person says is true, then how terrifying must his talent be?

Lu Chen calmly said, "For the sake of your princess, I will spare your life. Get out of the Great Zhou immediately."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Wu Qi's mind went blank. For the sake of their princess, could this man know their princess?

Upon considering this possibility, Wu Qi immediately asked, "Does Your Excellency know where our princess is now?"

Their most important task after entering the borderlands was to find their eldest princess.

As a result, they had been in the borderlands for some time, but they still had no concrete news about their eldest princess. All they knew was that their eldest princess had disappeared after arriving in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Later, the Great Zhou Dynasty sent soldiers to search for their princess, but there was no news.

They assumed their eldest princess was hiding because she was afraid of being found by the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Now that someone recognizes their eldest princess, it proves that this person must have seen their princess before.

Moreover, this person's words sounded as if he had a close relationship with their eldest princess.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Of course I know, your princess is in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."

Lu Chen didn't hide anything. Now that he was a King Realm cultivator, dealing with several Heaven Realm cultivators was just a matter of one hand.

If the people from the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty really dare to come to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to rescue Wu Yunwan, he can just wipe them all out in one fell swoop, saving him the trouble of searching for them.

Upon hearing Lu Chen's answer, Wu Qi was stunned for a moment.

After entering the borderlands, they began gathering intelligence about the borderlands, so they also knew that besides Ji Yunmeng, there was another person in the Great Zhou Dynasty worth their attention, namely the heir of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

Rumor has it that the heir of the Prince of Zhennan is extremely lecherous and tries to abduct any beautiful woman he sees.

Originally, this person was just a spoiled brat, but in just a few years, he broke through to the Heavenly Realm and became the strongest being in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even Empress Ji Yunmeng had to listen to him.

Wu Qi had already realized that the man in front of him was the heir of the Prince of Zhennan.

Wu Qi asked with a gloomy expression, "What have you done to our princess?"

Wu Qi wasn't stupid. Their princess was so beautiful, yet she had fallen into the hands of a lecherous man like Lu Chen. It wasn't hard to guess what their princess would face. (End of Chapter)
