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

The thought of Lu Chen forcibly taking over her body and then using all sorts of methods on her made Ji Qiuyu grit her teeth in anger.

This swindler is so skilled; who knows how many women he has harmed, or how many wives and concubines he has in his harem.

Alas, this is perhaps the tribulation she is destined to overcome in her life.

Besides, Lu Chen was already planning to give her the status of a Noble Consort, so she had nothing to say.

Not only did he help her break through to the Yin-Yang Realm, but he also gave her the status of a Noble Consort. In addition, Lu Chen himself gifted her the Demon Burial Technique and a Saint-level cultivation manual, which was already an immense opportunity for her.

Such an opportunity is absolutely worth exchanging one's purity for; countless women would love to exchange their bodies for such an opportunity but never have it.

Ji Qiuyu murmured, "Things have come to this point. Whether it's a toy or a furnace, I accept it."

Having received so many benefits from Lu Chen and incurred such great karmic ties, she could only accept that Lu Chen was an invader from another world.

Thinking of this, Ji Qiuyu's body became hot again. The scene of Lu Chen bullying her kept replaying in her mind. Ji Qiuyu quickly circulated her internal energy and tried to control her restless heart.

Soon, news of the Zixiao Dynasty and Xuehongfang's surrender to Tianchen World spread throughout the entire Ziyang World.

This is very puzzling. Not only did the Purple Emperor and the Blood Rainbow Workshop Master not leave the Purple Sun World, but they also joined the Great Xia Dynasty.

Both the Purple Emperor and the Blood Rainbow Pavilion's owner possess at least the strength of the Myriad Laws Realm, making it very easy for them to leave the Purple Sun World. Some Myriad Laws Realm cultivators from certain forces have already proactively opened world passages to escape.

Instead of running away, the two of them chose to seek refuge with the Xia Emperor.

Just as people were wondering why the two of them were doing this, the temporary court of the Great Xia Dynasty in Black Dragon City issued a notice that after the Ziyang World stabilized, the Xia Emperor would marry the Zihuang and the head of the Blood Rainbow Workshop.

After this news was announced, people instantly understood why the Purple Emperor and the head of the Blood Rainbow Workshop didn't run away; it turned out that they had already discussed marrying the Xia Emperor.

This also made some clever people understand the intricacies of the matter. The Xia Emperor did not choose to use force against the entire Ziyang World immediately, but instead chose to marry a woman from the Ziyang World. This shows that the Xia Emperor did not intend to destroy this world.

He probably wants to control the world more. As long as they surrender to the Great Xia and maintain good relations with the administrators chosen by the Xia Emperor, the Great Xia will not use force against them.

In less than a few days, hundreds of forces have aligned themselves with Blood Rainbow Workshop and Purple Cloud Dynasty, and some of the larger forces have also sent envoys to Black Moon City, wanting to pledge allegiance to Emperor Xia.

Once the tide of surrender takes hold, taking over the Ziyang World will be relatively easy. Lu Chen's next task will be to consider how to manage the entire Ziyang World.

His idea was simple: he did not intend to let the Great Xia Dynasty directly manage the Ziyang World for the time being. To be honest, this was somewhat unrealistic, because the Ziyang World was too big, and it was already very difficult for the Great Xia Dynasty to manage the Tianchen World.

Moreover, he will definitely not only conquer the Ziyang World in the future; if he wants to obtain the fortune of other worlds, he will inevitably conquer more worlds.

He plans to temporarily adopt a system similar to feudalism, selecting one or two representatives to help him manage the world he has conquered.

Of course, to avoid any betrayal by his spokespeople, he would choose his own women as spokespeople.

Once he has enough powerful figures around him, he will create a dynasty and then unify all the worlds he has conquered under one dynasty.

A few days later, at the Black Moon City Lord's Mansion.

Lu Chen was sitting in the pavilion examining a map of the Ziyang World when Ji Qiuyu entered the pavilion.

Seeing that Lu Chen was engrossed in looking at the map, she stood outside the pavilion without entering or speaking, simply watching him silently.

Ji Qiuyu felt incredibly conflicted about the man who had taken her innocence and whom she both loved and hated. She didn't know what to say to him.

Just as Ji Qiuyu was lost in thought, Lu Chen's voice came, "Qiuyu, is something wrong?"

Ji Qiuyu immediately replied, "No...it's nothing."

She did have something to do earlier. She had heard that Lu Chen wanted to marry Nangong Yuehua and Nangong Qingya, and she had originally wanted to ask Lu Chen if it was true.

But when she thought about what Lu Chen had done to her, she felt that Lu Chen was a lecherous man, and it was not surprising at all that he was attracted to the beauty of Nangong Yuehua and Nangong Qingya.

Moreover, she had no status or position in front of Lu Chen, and she had no right to question Lu Chen.

Of course, this made her feel very uncomfortable. Although she knew that this guy had many women, he had only just arrived in the Ziyang World and taken her virginity, and he had already set his sights on other women.

She wondered if, once she actually entered Lu Chen's harem, she would be left alone in her empty room forever, just like the concubines in secular dynasties, who might never be favored by the emperor even once in their entire lives.

Hearing the hesitation in Ji Qiuyu's voice, Lu Chen looked up and glanced at her. Ji Qiuyu lowered her head slightly, not daring to look him in the eye.

Lu Chen's lips curled up slightly, then he teased, "What's wrong? Are you too embarrassed to ask me to help you cultivate?"

Hearing Lu Chen's teasing words, Ji Qiuyu snorted coldly, "I'm not that cheap!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Qiuyu turned and left angrily.

She had only been tormented by Lu Chen for a little over half a month, how could she possibly be thinking about that kind of thing again? Lu Chen was clearly humiliating her. Even if she had no choice but to become Lu Chen's plaything, she still had dignity in her heart.

Ji Qiuyu had only taken a few steps when Bai Qingqing appeared in the courtyard. Upon seeing Bai Qingqing dressed in black and gold armor, Ji Qiuyu's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She had seen Bai Qingqing frequently these past few days. Although Bai Qingqing appeared to be just a maid, the soldiers around Lu Chen treated her with great courtesy. She suspected that this so-called personal maid might also be having an affair with Lu Chen, this fraudster.

Just as Ji Qiuyu was thinking this, Bai Qingqing's voice came, "Your Majesty, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion has sent someone to sue for peace."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qiuyu was stunned. Was the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion also going to surrender to the Great Xia Dynasty?

It seems that the Ziyang World is truly going to fall into the hands of this tyrant.

Thinking of this, Ji Qiuyu felt a strange sadness in her heart. After all, she had grown up in the Ziyang World and had deep feelings for it.

Although she is now Lu Chen's woman, she still feels very uncomfortable from her perspective.

Upon hearing Bai Qingqing's words, Lu Chen chuckled and then said, "The Heavenly Demon was released thanks to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion. They actually dared to send someone to sue for peace?"

The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion took the initiative to unite with various forces to break the seal on the Heavenly Demon and release it. This was an unforgivable sin for most people in the Purple Sun World.

If Lu Chen wanted to win over the hearts of the people in the Ziyang World, he naturally couldn't absolve the Tianji Pavilion of its responsibilities; he had to find a force to take on the responsibility.

As the mastermind, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion must bear the responsibility for releasing the Heavenly Demon.

However, Lu Chen still decided to see what the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion was planning. (End of Chapter)
