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

Lu Chen believed he had done nothing wrong, and he refused to believe that woman would use his affair with Chen Wanrong to accuse him of being wrong.

Lu Chen then said to Chen Wanrong, "So Master is here too. I was wondering why I felt so cold last night."

Chen Wanrong said, "We should get up. Master must have been waiting outside all night."

Lu Chen was somewhat helpless. He had originally planned to spend more time with Chen Wanrong, but now he had to get up so early.

What was that woman doing following Chen Wanrong down the mountain?

Thinking of this, a scene suddenly flashed into Lu Chen's mind: the last time he was in the study, that woman used the physical resonance between them to cultivate the Dragon and Phoenix Yin-Yang Technique and then recover her strength.

Is this woman planning to treat me the same way she did last time after coming down the mountain with Chen Wanrong?

Lu Chen frowned slightly. It seemed he had to find a way to make Yun Xianxian drink some Dragon and Phoenix Tea and make her pay a price, so that he wouldn't be taken advantage of like last time and still not be able to possess her body.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen and Chen Wanrong slowly got up, took a quick bath in the adjacent bathtub, and then left the room.

At this moment, inside Yunrong Courtyard, Lin Wanyun was brewing tea for Yun Xianxian in the pavilion, while Yun Xianxian sat on the stone bench with an indifferent expression, holding the teacup and slowly sipping the tea.

After leaving the room, Lu Chen immediately bowed to Yun Xianxian and said, "Disciple greets Master!"

Yun Xianxian said coldly, "Considering that you haven't seen each other for a long time, I'll let it go this time. But if this happens again, I'll punish you by banning you from seeing each other for a year."

Yun Xianxian was a little angry. If it were Lu Chen, she could let it go, since Lu Chen didn't know she was coming at first. But Chen Wanrong was different.

She brought Chen Wanrong down the mountain, but when Chen Wanrong saw the man, she completely forgot about herself and left herself standing on the roof all night.

Despite how good she was to Chen Wanrong, Chen Wanrong actually forgot about her master as soon as she found a man.

Chen Wanrong realized that Yun Xianxian might be angry with her, so she quickly said, "This disciple knows her mistake."

Yun Xianxian said calmly, "Fine, I won't bother with these matters anymore."

Lu Chen then tentatively asked, "Master, may I ask what brings you down the mountain in person this time?"

Yun Xianxian replied, "I have heard that a large number of martial artists have gone missing within the Great Xia territory. I believe this matter is likely related to the Great Xia royal family, so I plan to go down the mountain to investigate the situation."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned. He hadn't expected that Yun Xianxian would also think that this matter was related to his father.

Yun Xianxian looked at Lu Chen and said, "Lu Chen, if you want to unify the world, the first step you need to take is to seize the throne of the Great Xia Dynasty, right? I will lead the entire Xuan Yue Palace to support you in your struggle for that position. If you need anything, you can tell me."

Lu Chen could hardly believe what Yun Xianxian was saying. This woman actually planned to help him fight for the throne of Great Xia?

So kind?

Lu Chen suddenly thought of something and said, "Master, I heard that my father has a sacred artifact from your Xuan Yue Palace. You support my bid for the throne, is it to retrieve that sacred artifact?"

Hearing Lu Chen's speculation, Yun Xianxian sneered and then said, "You're quite clever. I do intend to take this opportunity to retrieve that sacred artifact."

Lu Chen asked, "Master, you are already a Celestial Being. With your Celestial Being strength, you could easily retrieve that sacred artifact by simply making a trip to the Great Xia Imperial Palace. Why go through all this trouble?"

Yun Xianxian replied, "My injuries have not yet healed, and I cannot act rashly. If I do, the Heavenly Dao of this world will unleash a heavenly tribulation upon me, which is how I got these injuries."

Upon hearing Yun Xianxian's answer, Lu Chen suddenly understood. So that's how it is. No wonder Yun Xianxian hadn't gone to the palace to retrieve the so-called sacred object; it turned out she didn't have the ability.

Yun Xianxian continued, "Furthermore, that item has a certain probability of raising a Grandmaster's strength to the Celestial Realm. Although the time is relatively short, it is not impossible to injure a Celestial Realm expert."

"Even if I were to take action, I would have to wait until my strength has recovered somewhat."

"My second purpose in coming down the mountain this time is to restore my strength."

At this point, Yun Xianxian stared intently at Lu Chen, who immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

He had previously guessed that Yun Xianxian had come down the mountain to help him recover his strength, and he was right.

This woman was definitely up to no good; she was after his health.

Yun Xianxian continued, looking into Lu Chen's eyes, and said, "There's another matter. The fog on the western border is becoming unstable. If you want to unify the world, you'll probably have to hurry."

"The space inside the mist is extremely chaotic; no one can say for sure what might come out."

Lu Chen was taken aback.

Has the fog become unstable?

What he's most worried about right now is the fog on the western border. He's afraid that all the experts coming out of there are Celestial Realm beings. If they're all Celestial Realm level beings, then his firearms will be useless.

Just then, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something.

The woman's talk about the instability of the mist was probably not just a simple reminder.

She reminded herself that the mist was unstable, and it was definitely meant to create a sense of urgency for her, to highlight the importance of the Xuan Yue Palace, so that she would be willing to help her restore her strength.

At this moment, Lu Chen said with a smile, "Since Master has already decided to help me unify the world, then this disciple thanks Master here."

Yun Xianxian said expressionlessly, "Forget about verbal thanks, I need your help with something."

Lu Chen feigned ignorance and asked, "What is Master referring to?"

Yun Xianxian said, "You'll find out then."

Lu Chen didn't press further. How could he not know what it was about? It was about helping her regain her strength.

To be honest, he was quite willing to cultivate the Dragon-Phoenix Yin-Yang Technique with her, but only if they cultivated together physically, not like last time in the study where he was passively cultivating with her. Otherwise, cultivating the Dragon-Phoenix Yin-Yang Technique would lose its meaning.

However, Lu Chen also realized that Yun Xianxian would never let him possess her body. In Yun Xianxian's eyes, he was just a native from a low-level world.

……

The capital of Daxia.

A motorcade slowly drove into the capital. The motorcade's flag bore a crescent moon, the flag of the Xuan Yue Palace, signifying the arrival of a high-ranking figure from the Xuan Yue Palace in the capital.

This matter quickly reached the ears of the Xia Emperor.

Emperor Xia sat in his study, listening to the reports from his shadow guards, and gradually fell into deep thought.

Why is Xuan Yue Palace sending people to the capital at this time?

Could it be that their affair has been discovered by the Xuan Yue Palace?

Is Xuan Yue Palace planning to cause trouble for the royal family? (End of Chapter)
