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

Chapter 687 Perfect timing, your master also wants to see what kind of person the Xia Emperor is.

Upon hearing Su Hanyan's reminder, Li Qingrou and Wu Junwan were slightly taken aback. They hadn't thought about these things at first. When they first became Lu Chen's women, they only thought that Lu Chen was a lecherous man, and that was just his nature.

However, after discovering that Lu Chen's strength was even more terrifying than they had imagined, they knew that Lu Chen must be from the advanced cultivation world and had a very unusual identity. So at that time, they wondered why Lu Chen was so good to them.

Of course, they only thought about it occasionally at the time and didn't think about the specific reasons. They just assumed that Lu Chen was naturally this kind of person.

Su Hanyan continued to remind Li Qingrou and Wu Junwan, "Qingrou, Junwan, you come from a lower world, so you may not know how precious the immortal ship that Emperor Xia possesses is, and therefore you may not know how noble Emperor Xia's status is."

"Let me tell you this: in the advanced cultivation world where I live, even the world lord who controls the entire world would find it difficult to possess a celestial vessel of this level."

"Judging from the array patterns on the immortal ship, its grade is likely to have reached the Heavenly Rank, or even the Saint Rank."

In Su Hanyan's eyes, Li Qingrou and Wu Junwan were from a lower world, so they couldn't judge how noble Lu Chen's status was, and therefore couldn't understand why Lu Chen was so kind to them. They genuinely thought Lu Chen was just a lecherous man.

Upon hearing Su Hanyan's words, the two women were taken aback.

They only knew that Lu Chen's identity was likely very noble and that the immortal ship was very precious, but they really did not expect that the immortal ship that Lu Chen took out would actually reach the Heavenly Rank and Saint Rank quality.

Thinking about it this way, Lu Chen's status is even more noble than they imagined?

Seeing that her two disciples had lost in thought after hearing her words, Su Hanyan sighed slightly. She knew that the two of them definitely hadn't thought about these things.

Then Su Hanyan continued, "If he is really as good to his women as you say, then you should be careful. He may be paving the way for his future path, wanting you all to fall in love with him and be willing to sacrifice yourselves for him to help him achieve his goal."

"When you go to the higher cultivation world in the future, you will understand that this kind of thing is very common in the cultivation world. Your teacher has also seen many people who deceive their partners' feelings, regardless of gender, they are all the same."

After hearing Su Hanyan's reminder, the two women did indeed begin to doubt Lu Chen, but they quickly came to their senses. At this moment, Wu Yunwan spoke up, "Master, even if Emperor Xia is really deceiving my feelings, I will accept it. Now I am carrying his child and can no longer live without him. If one day he really needs me to die for him, I will not hesitate in the slightest."

This……

Su Hanyan frowned, she hadn't expected her disciple to love the Xia Emperor to this extent.

Knowing that the Xia Emperor might be deceiving them, they were still willing to die for him. The Xia Emperor had already made them fall to such a degree.

The more this is the case, the more it proves that Emperor Xia is using them as some kind of sacrifice. Wu Junwan is now no different from a death squad.

The thought of her two disciples being used as furnaces or some kind of sacrifice by the Xia Emperor made Su Hanyan feel extremely distressed.

She knew that it would be useless to say anything to Li Qingrou and Wu Yunwan now, as they had both fallen in love with Emperor Xia and were deeply infatuated.

No matter how much he tried to persuade them to leave Emperor Xia, they couldn't leave him. Moreover, if he continued to persuade them, he might end up becoming their enemy.

The best solution is to get the Xia Emperor to spare them.

With this in mind, Su Hanyan made a plan.

As their master, she couldn't stand by and watch them become sacrifices. She had to find a way to rescue them and free them from their suffering.

Thinking of this, Su Hanyan looked at Li Qingrou and asked, "Qingrou, Emperor Xia allowed you to come to the Misty Immortal Sect's flying boat this time, probably so he wanted you to deliver a message to your master, right?"

Li Qingrou didn't hide anything and answered directly, "He wants to meet with you alone to ask you some questions about the Bixia World."

Su Hanyan said, "Perfect timing, I also want to see what kind of person the Xia Emperor is."

"Tomorrow, I will go to Black Dragon City with you."

Su Hanyan didn't intend to continue talking about the sacrifice. She had seen many cultivators sacrifice themselves for their Daoist partners and knew that continuing to talk about it wouldn't change anything.

The source lies with Emperor Xia; to save them, we must find Emperor Xia.

Su Hanyan then changed the subject, asking Wu Junwan and Li Qingrou about the Great Xia Dynasty, and listening to their stories about how they gradually became the Xia Emperor's women.

After listening to Wu Junwan and Li Qingrou's words, Su Hanyan became even more curious about Lu Chen. Many of the things Lu Chen did seemed to have nothing to do with the cultivation world.

However, it cannot be denied that he was indeed a competent emperor.

This further confirmed her suspicions: such an ambitious emperor didn't seem like a lecherous man at all; he must be plotting something.

In the end, the three of them talked for a day and a night inside the soundproof array. The next morning, Su Hanyan followed Wu Yunwan and Li Qingrou to Black Dragon City.

The first Cultivator Conference was about to be held, so Lu Chen came down from the celestial ship in the sky to the ground. The former imperial palace of the Black Dragon Kingdom was still there, so Lu Chen settled down in the palace.

A ray of sunlight shone through the window, illuminating the beautiful woman's snow-white skin. The warm sunlight woke Yun Xianxian from her deep sleep.

When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on top of Lu Chen, the two of them still in a state of cultivation. Feeling the heat of Lu Chen's body, and recalling what had happened last night, a slight blush appeared on Yun Xianxian's cold cheeks.

At that moment, Lu Chen opened his eyes and saw Yun Xianxian looking down at him. Lu Chen smiled slightly and said, "Master, why didn't you sleep a little longer?"

Yun Xianxian said expressionlessly, "What's there to sleep about?"

Cultivators don't need to sleep every night. When she was in Xuan Yue Palace, she hardly slept at all. It was only after becoming Lu Chen's woman that she developed the habit of sleeping.

But even though they say they're sleeping, they're actually doing *that* kind of thing.

At this moment, Yun Xianxian raised her upper body, as if she was about to get up from Lu Chen's body. But as soon as she got up, Lu Chen's other hand grabbed her waist, wrapped his arms around her waist, and pressed down hard with his claws, holding her body tightly so that she would not be separated from him.

Yun Xianxian glared at Lu Chen. She had already done what she needed to do, and this guy still liked to stay like this.

Lu Chen paid no attention to Yun Xianxian's gaze.

Yun Xianxian then asked, "What are your plans to do with the forces in the Misty World?"

Seeing that Yun Xianxian had no intention of getting up, Lu Chen gently stroked her back and said, "I plan to absorb these cultivators into the Great Xia Dynasty and transform them into soldiers of Great Xia."

Yun Xianxian said, "Cultivators have always loved freedom and are mostly unruly. It won't be easy to get them to join the Great Xia Dynasty's army."

Having followed Lu Chen for so long, Yun Xianxian has a very good understanding of the situation in Da Xia. She knows that the Da Xia army has strict discipline and takes even the smallest things very seriously.

Disciples of sects are usually disobedient. If sect disciples were to join the Great Xia army and be subjected to military management, it would be hard to imagine what the Great Xia army would become.

As soon as Yun Xianxian finished speaking, Lu Chen's claws moved toward Yun Xianxian's buttocks, but Yun Xianxian still ignored Lu Chen's little actions.

Lu Chen spoke up, "As long as the conditions are good, people will always join. What do you think of that spirit rice?"

Hearing this, Yun Xianxian thought of the spirit rice she had been eating recently. Lu Chen had planted that spirit rice a long time ago, and she knew about it. However, the spiritual energy in this world was not abundant at that time. Although the spirit rice that was planted could enhance people's strength, the effect was very average and not as good as the ordinary spiritual plants in the cultivation world.

However, since the spiritual energy of the Tianchen World has been restored, the spiritual power contained in those spiritual rice has become more and more concentrated, and the effect of improving cultivation has become more and more obvious. The reason why the soldiers of the Great Xia Army have improved their overall cultivation so quickly is because they eat spiritual rice in the military camp every once in a while.

Yun Xianxian then said, "Spirit rice is indeed quite attractive to ordinary cultivators, but if you use benefits to lure them into joining the army, even if they do join, it will be difficult for them to form a fighting force. They won't truly fight for you or for the Great Xia."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "If that's the case, most people in this world join a certain force because of various interests, and they don't genuinely fight for any one person or group."

"Everyone has their own interests, which is normal. Let's get them to join the War Dragon Army first. As long as there are enough benefits, they can fight for the Great Xia."

"Loyalty is always a rare commodity, and I don't intend to pursue it excessively. I only need my core subordinates to remain loyal."

Yun Xianxian thought about it for a moment and felt that what Lu Chen said made sense, but she still reminded him, "Then you'd better keep your eyes open and not end up like me, promoting a bunch of ungrateful wretches as elders."

When she created the Xuan Yue Palace in the Tianchen World, she didn't care about the loyalty of the disciples she recruited. As a result, a group of elders she promoted ended up going to serve the late emperor.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Of course."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen placed his other hand on Yun Xianxian's waist, and then moved his body slightly. Yun Xianxian immediately rolled her eyes at Lu Chen, thinking that he was being indecent so early in the morning.

Just as Lu Chen was about to continue his merriment with Yun Xianxian, Bai Qingqing's voice came from the doorway, "Your Majesty, the new sect leader of the Misty Immortal Sect requests an audience."
