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

The antique-style bedroom was decorated with countless calligraphy and paintings, and there were also many on the floor. The whole room was filled with the atmosphere of poetry and books, and looked extremely elegant.

However, on the bed in this very room, lay a woman with pale skin.

The woman lay face down on the bed, as if she were asleep.

Just then, a faint sound came from next door. Although the sound was very soft, it could still be heard if you listened carefully.

Murong Xue'er instantly woke up. She sat up in bed and glanced at her body with her beautiful eyes. When she saw the words Lu Chen had left on her body, Murong Xue'er sighed softly.

She realized she couldn't live without that man anymore.

Murong Xue'er quickly calmed herself down and listened carefully to the sounds coming from next door.

After a moment, Murong Xue'er couldn't help but chuckle softly.

That eldest princess of the Great Wu Kingdom, wasn't she usually so noble and dignified? How come she turned into that kind of person after falling into that man's hands, only knowing how to cry and wail?

The thought of Wu Junwan, that noble and beautiful woman, being ravaged by Lu Chen filled Murong Xue'er with a sense of pleasure.

She knew very well that when Lu Chen was in his room, Wu Yunwan outside must have been listening to the commotion inside with a spectator's mentality.

I wonder what Wu Yunwan was thinking about herself when she was outside. Now it's her turn to be the one to see what happens.

It was evening.

Inside Wu Junwan's palace.

Wu Junwan originally thought that Lu Chen had just come out of Murong Xue'er's room, and even if he wanted to do something bad to her on a whim, he probably wouldn't stay in her room for long.

As a result, this guy went into his own bedroom and stayed there for the whole afternoon, and she found that he seemed particularly excited today.

It's unclear whether it was his identity as a princess from an enemy country that provoked Lu Chen, causing him to become particularly violent.

As night fell, a full moon hung in the sky. At this moment, the cool moonlight shone through the window and into the room, illuminating Wu Junwan's fair skin.

Wu Yunwan was lying on Lu Chen's chest, while Lu Chen had his arm around her waist and his large hand around her buttocks. Lu Chen said with a smile, "The princess of the enemy country is indeed different."

Upon hearing this, Wu Junwan gave a weak, cold snort, "You really are a tyrant."

Lu Chen said calmly, "Tyrant? There are plenty of tyrants in this world, as long as they're not incompetent rulers."

Wu Yunwan said, "His Majesty spends all his time on women; sooner or later he will become a tyrant."

Lu Chen smiled slightly, "By the time I become a tyrant, my throne may have already been passed on to my son."

Hearing Lu Chen's answer, Wu Junwan was somewhat incredulous. She said, "You'd willingly give up the power you hold?"

Lu Chen said, "I never said I would give up my power. I'll just be the retired emperor and not get involved in anything."

Wu Yunwan said, "Throughout history, those who become retired emperors have all been completely sidelined by their own sons in the end."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "That depends on whether my son has the ability."

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get back to what we're doing."

At this point, Lu Chen wrapped his arm around Wu Junwan's waist, rolled over, and pinned her down again.

Wu Junwan looked at Lu Chen speechlessly. This little man was bound to be a tyrant in the future.

Lu Chen ignored Wu Yunwan's gaze and leaned down again to kiss her soft red lips once more.

Another night has passed.

In the early morning, the warm sunlight shone on Lu Chen. After waking up, Lu Chen gently touched Wu Junwan's disheveled hair.

Just as Lu Chen was tidying up Wu Junwan's hair, he suddenly noticed a system notification exclamation mark next to his field of vision.

Lu Chen seemed to have thought of something and quickly opened the system notification panel.

He was so engrossed last night that he didn't check the system panel at all, and only now does he realize that Wu Junwan has been infected.

[The host cultivates feelings with his wives and concubines once, increasing the experience points for the Qi Refining Technique... and the experience points for the Demon Burial Technique...]

[Congratulations, host, for helping your wife Wu Yunwan become pregnant. Reward: Seven Killings Formation for Protecting Meridians.]

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. After all, Wu Yunwan was already a pseudo-celestial being. In addition, the condition for Wu Yunwan to become a celestial being was to give birth to three children for him. Therefore, Lu Chen always thought that this condition was very harsh and that it would be difficult for Wu Yunwan to conceive his children.

Unexpectedly, Wu Junwan became pregnant with his child so quickly.

Lu Chen then opened the [Seven Killings Protective Formation] to see what this formation was for.

[Seven Killings Protective Formation: Earth-rank formation. Once successfully constructed, the host's wife and children can activate it. It can withstand attacks from experts at the Myriad Laws Realm without harming the host's wife and children.]

After learning about the function of the formation, Lu Chen was very happy, as this formation would be of great use to him.

At this moment, Lu Chen felt Wu Yunwan in his arms shift slightly, and he immediately looked down at her beautiful face.

Lu Chen's lips involuntarily curled up slightly, revealing a smile.

Just then, Wu Yunwan's eyelashes twitched slightly, and she quickly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Lu Chen staring at her with a mischievous grin.

Wu Yunwan was stunned for a moment, her delicate body trembling slightly. "What are you laughing at?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I have good news for you."

Wu Junwan asked curiously, "What good news?"

Lu Chen said mysteriously, "You need to be mentally prepared."

Hearing this, Wu Junwan looked at Lu Chen with suspicion. "Go ahead and say it."

Lu Chen said directly, "You're pregnant."

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, Wu Junwan was stunned again.

Is she pregnant?

real or fake?

Having lived with Lu Chen's wives and concubines for so long, she had long heard about some of Lu Chen's abilities, such as his ability to sense whether they were pregnant or not in an instant.

So when Lu Chen said they were pregnant, they were definitely pregnant, but it would take some time before they showed signs of pregnancy.

Although she knew that Lu Chen was probably telling the truth, Wu Yunwan still found it hard to believe. After all, she was a pseudo-celestial being. Not to mention a pseudo-celestial being, even a grandmaster would find it difficult to conceive.

I never expected that I would get pregnant with Lu Chen's child so soon after I started following him.

If I could get pregnant at this rate, wouldn't I become a celestial being before I'm even fifty?

It's not impossible to become a celestial being before the age of forty, let alone fifty.

At this moment, Wu Junwan's emotions were somewhat complicated. Although she also wanted to break through to become a Celestial Being as soon as possible, she felt strange when she thought that she was carrying the child of this bad thing.

She, a princess of the Great Wu, had ultimately fallen into the hands of the enemy emperor.

After regaining her senses, Wu Yunwan asked with certainty, "Are you telling the truth?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "You'll know if I'm telling the truth in a month."

At this point, Lu Chen touched his waist and said, "I told you long ago that I would get you pregnant sooner or later, and I've kept my word."

Wu Junwan fell silent and did not speak.

Seeing that Wu Yunwan seemed to be thinking about something, Lu Chen asked, "What? You still don't believe me?"

Wu Junwan said expressionlessly, "I believe you."

Lu Chen continued, "Are you unhappy?"

Wu Yunwan continued, "No."

Lu Chen said, "Then why do you look so gloomy?"

Wu Junwan fell silent again. (End of Chapter)
