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

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the two women felt a pang of anxiety and their brows furrowed slightly.

Should I take something?

Is this guy trying to poison them?

Although the two cultivators at the Creation Realm could generally expel the poisons from this lower-level world through their spiritual power, Lu Chen was no ordinary person. In fact, there was a high probability that he wasn't even from this world, and that he might be carrying poisons from the higher-level cultivation world.

And there's another possibility: this guy is planning to drug them, so they'll be at his mercy.

Given their current weakened state, if they were truly given that kind of drug, it would probably take at least two hours to force it out of their bodies. By the time those two hours are over, they don't know how many times this lecherous man will have tormented them.

Mu Yunxi then said, "Your Majesty, you wouldn't be planning to give us aphrodisiacs, would you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "I'm not that despicable."

"You are all experts at the Creation Realm. Although you have surrendered now, once your strength is restored, I will definitely not be your match. If you were to suddenly assassinate me, I might not even have time to take out my spiritual weapon. Therefore, I need a guarantee."

"Don't worry, what I gave you to drink won't harm you. You're already at the Creation Realm, so I believe you can see that."

Just then, Bai Qingqing appeared in the distance carrying a kettle. Lu Chen had anticipated that the two women might pretend to surrender, so he had Bai Qingqing prepare the Dragon and Phoenix Tea in advance.

After Bai Qingqing came over, Lu Chen immediately said, "Xiao Bai, pour a cup of tea for your two future sisters."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qingqing poured two cups of tea without hesitation and then placed them in front of Liu Qingqiu and Mu Yunxi.

Neither of the two women immediately took the tea from Bai Qingqing's hand; instead, they looked at it again and again.

Based on their initial assessment, the tea appeared to be just ordinary spiritual tea, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

Why did Lu Chen make the two of them drink ordinary spiritual tea?

The two women then took the spiritual tea from Bai Qingqing and continued to examine it with their spiritual power. After several examinations, they concluded that it was just ordinary spiritual tea, neither poisonous nor harmful.

But this is a bit strange. Lu Chen made them drink this stuff, probably to control them and prevent them from assassinating her once they regained their strength. If that's the case, Lu Chen should have given them poison.

As long as they are poisoned and Lu Chen has the antidote, they will not dare to act rashly.

Alternatively, Lu Chen could give them a poison that would seal their power, but this tea clearly doesn't have the ability to seal power.

Seeing that both women were holding tea and seemed hesitant to drink, Lu Chen said, "What's wrong? You two are afraid to drink? Could it be that your surrender is a pretense, your real purpose being to get close to me and then find an opportunity to assassinate me?"

Seeing that Lu Chen had immediately grasped their thoughts, the two women seemed to understand something. The tea was indeed fine; Lu Chen probably wanted to use it to test whether they had truly surrendered.

If the two of them dare not drink, it means they surrendered with the intention of assassinating him, and are therefore very afraid of being controlled.

If the two of them drank it, it would prove that they had indeed surrendered.

Since it's just ordinary spiritual tea, what's there to be afraid of? The two women then picked up their teacups at the same time and drank the tea in one gulp.

After finishing her tea, Mu Yunxi said with a smile, "Your Majesty, now you should believe that we have truly surrendered, right?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Okay, I believe you."

Seeing Lu Chen smile, the two women became suspicious. He believed her so easily? Could there be some kind of trickery involved?

They then quickly checked their bodies. They found that there was nothing wrong with them; in fact, the spiritual tea seemed to have helped restore some of their spiritual energy, refreshed their minds, and relieved their fatigue.

This……

Could it be that this guy really tested them with a cup of ordinary spiritual tea, and now that they've passed his test, he believes them?

That can't be right!

Is Lu Chen really such a naive person?

He was an emperor, after all; how could he be completely without cunning? It always felt very suspicious.

Lu Chen's gaze fell on Liu Qingqiu's icy face. He said to Liu Qingqiu, "Since you have surrendered, then prepare to submit the letter of surrender. I will return to the capital of Daqian with you."

Liu Qingqiu said coldly, "Fine."

Lu Chen then said, "Alright, now you two can come with me to Danxin City for a day. We'll set off for the capital of Daqian City first thing tomorrow morning."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen turned and walked towards Danxin City. Soon he passed by Liu Qingqiu and Mu Yunxi.

After Lu Chen walked past Liu Qingqiu, Liu Qingqiu suddenly raised her hand. She felt that now was the best opportunity to get rid of Lu Chen. Lu Chen had relaxed his guard and thought that they had surrendered, and that he had his back to them.

Given their current proximity, their chances of success are very high if they make their move now.

Only by eliminating Lu Chen would there be no more trouble. However, as soon as she raised her hand, it was grabbed by Mu Yunxi.

Seeing that Mu Yunxi was holding her wrist tightly, Liu Qingqiu immediately turned her head, looked coldly at Mu Yunxi, and asked in a telepathic voice, "What do you mean by this!"

Mu Yunxi transmitted her voice, saying, "I don't want to be killed by you. You wouldn't actually believe us so easily, would you?"

"If you make a move now, I guarantee he'll react instantly and take us both out!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Our spiritual energy is almost depleted. Wouldn't it be better to wait until we've recovered and are completely confident before making our move?"

Liu Qingqiu thought about it for a moment and felt that Mu Yunxi's words made some sense; it was unlikely that Lu Chen would trust them so quickly.

As he passed by, he was probably testing them. If they made a move now, they might actually be instantly killed by Lu Chen using that magical artifact.

Thinking of this, Liu Qingqiu lowered her hand again.

In fact, Lu Chen had no such thoughts at all. After drinking the Dragon and Phoenix Tea, Liu Qingqiu and Mu Yunxi no longer posed much of a threat to him.

Liu Qingqiu and Mu Yunxi turned around at the same time and followed Lu Chen back to Danxin City.

When they saw that Lu Chen had captured Liu Qingqiu, the evil queen, the people of Daqian in Danxin City cheered and jumped for joy, believing that the evil queen had finally been captured, the plague should soon disappear, and Daqian would return to normal.

Back in Danxin City, Lu Chen brought Liu Qingqiu and Mu Yunxi to his study. He didn't do anything inappropriate; he had called them to the study mainly to discuss something serious. (End of Chapter)
