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

Chen Wanrong stayed behind mainly to represent Xuan Yue Palace at Lu Chen's coronation ceremony. Now that Lu Chen has ascended the throne, she should return to Xuan Yue Palace, as there are still a lot of things waiting for her to handle.

Chen Wanrong was naturally reluctant to part with Lu Chen. Having spent so much time with him, she had come to understand what kind of person he was.

Although Lu Chen was fond of beautiful women, he actually had a very strong purpose: to have his wives and concubines bear him children.

Of course, this does not mean that Lu Chen treated his wives and concubines as mere tools for procreation.

Lu Chen treats all his women very well, even Xue Linglong, the demoness from the Demonic Sect. Although Lu Chen is very fierce towards Xue Linglong in bed, he will care about her afterward.

Previously, Chen Wanrong thought she might have been influenced by something to develop feelings for Lu Chen, but now she truly believes she has fallen in love with this little rascal.

Chen Wanrong had completely ignored Lu Chen's lecherousness; in fact, she didn't see it as a flaw, because she knew she couldn't possess him entirely.

Now that she has avenged her great grudge and there is no hope of restoring her country, her only remaining source of emotional support is that wicked Lu Chen.

The thought of leaving Lu Chen soon and not being able to see this wicked thing for a long time made Chen Wanrong sigh slightly.

Just as Chen Wanrong sighed, the palace door opened, and Lu Chen appeared in the doorway. He smiled and said, "Is my wife sighing because she's reluctant to leave me?"

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, he glanced at Chen Wanrong.

Chen Wanrong was dressed in a light blue palace gown. The light blue gauze clung tightly to her graceful figure, highlighting her curvaceous body. Her hair was styled in a bun, revealing her snow-white neck. She exuded a noble aura, and Chen Wanrong now looked more like a princess of a country.

Seeing that Lu Chen, that scoundrel, had arrived, Chen Wanrong said expressionlessly, "Your Majesty is now the Emperor, why are you still referring to yourself as me?"

In this rigidly hierarchical era, titles were very important, and degree represented rank.

Lu Chen teleported to Chen Wanrong's side in an instant, embracing her soft body without hesitation, and whispered in her ear, "I've said it before, I am a king outside, but in my harem, in front of my women, I am just your husband."

"If I were to be so particular in front of my wife, wouldn't I become a lonely bachelor? I don't want to be a lonely bachelor."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chen Wanrong's lips unconsciously curled up slightly. One of the reasons she liked this man was this: even though he possessed supreme power, he remained sincere to his woman.

Some people, once they get involved with power, undergo a significant change in their personality, becoming completely unfamiliar to others.

Although Chen Wanrong didn't know if Lu Chen would change in the future, at least Lu Chen hadn't changed yet.

Just then, Chen Wanrong noticed that Lu Chen's hand was on her buttocks and he started to do something naughty.

From the day I met him until now, this wicked thing hasn't changed at all.

At this moment, Lu Chen asked, "Rongrong, are you really planning to go back?"

Chen Wanrong said, "My master sent a letter saying that there are still many things to do at Xuan Yue Palace, and I need to go back and handle them."

At this moment, Lu Chen placed his other hand on Chen Wanrong's belt, untying it as he said, "Didn't she go back? Why do you have to go back to handle this?"

"I don't know when you'll be back down the mountain this time."

Chen Wanrong immediately replied, "Next year."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen gazed into Chen Wanrong's phoenix eyes. Chen Wanrong's eyelashes were curved, and her eyes were clear, yet she looked very gentle.

Chen Wanrong continued, "After the internal affairs of Xuan Yue Palace are settled, I will come down the mountain to find you next year."

Hearing Chen Wanrong's words, Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's rare to hear such proactive words from you. My wife has finally come to her senses."

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, Chen Wanrong's expression turned cold again. She then said, "I came to see you only for cultivation purposes. Don't overthink it."

Lu Chen then laid Chen Wanrong down on the bed. Chen Wanrong's hair instantly spread out on the bed, and her belt had come undone, revealing her white undergarment.

Lu Chen looked down at her and said, "My wife, we've already consummated our marriage countless times, yet you're still so dishonest."

Chen Wanrong lay on the bed, staring into Lu Chen's eyes without flinching or changing her expression. She simply looked at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen continued to grope her, and just then, Chen Wanrong suddenly let out a soft moan. Hearing this sound, Lu Chen's lips curled up slightly.

Then Lu Chen leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Fairy, how about we try harder tonight and get you pregnant with my child? That way, your master might let you stay by my side for a longer period of time."

Hearing Lu Chen's deep voice, a blush appeared on Chen Wanrong's cold face, but she still said in a calm tone, "It's not so easy for a martial artist to get pregnant."

Lu Chen raised his head slightly and gazed once more at Chen Wanrong's stunningly beautiful face. At this moment, Lu Chen's heart began to stir.

Just as Lu Chen was about to do something wicked, Chen Wanrong spoke up again, saying, "Will His Majesty change just because he has power?"

Hearing this question, Lu Chen was taken aback; he hadn't expected Chen Wanrong to ask it.

After regaining his senses, Lu Chen replied, "That's hard to say. The future is uncertain."

Hearing Lu Chen's answer, Chen Wanrong's face remained unchanged, but she felt a slight sense of disappointment.

She knew that people could change. For example, when she was young, she was a lively and cheerful girl, but after her country was destroyed, she became taciturn and increasingly indifferent, until she met this bad man.

Although she knew that people could change, Chen Wanrong still wanted some promises from Lu Chen, just to comfort her.

Just then, Lu Chen continued, "But you can rest assured about one thing: even if my personality changes, my feelings for you will never change. I will always love you, love your fragrance, love your stunning beauty, love your cool and noble temperament, and love the soft moans you make when we make love."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chen Wanrong was slightly startled, but she quickly recovered and said coldly, "Sweet talk."

Lu Chen said with a smile, "Whether it's sweet talk or not, we'll know in another hundred years, or another thousand years."

Chen Wanrong stared into Lu Chen's eyes and continued, "You've probably said that to all your wives and concubines, haven't you?"

Lu Chen said, "I've only told you that so far."

Chen Wanrong said, "Now that I am your woman, I can't live without you. You don't need to use sweet words on me anymore." (End of Chapter)
