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

In Lu Chen's view, the great calamity was still far away. He should try to get his wives and concubines pregnant with his child worlds as soon as possible, and then use those child worlds to increase his power.

After recounting the great calamity, Lu Chen seemed to remember something else and asked, "Master, besides the great calamity, what else did Grandmaster tell you?"

"She went and looked at all my wives and concubines before leaving in a hurry; she must have discovered something, right?"

Yun Xianxian thought for a moment and replied, "After seeing Rongrong, she examined Rongrong's body and said that Rongrong's physique was the best in the ancient era, and becoming an emperor was only a matter of time."

"Then she suddenly thought of something and went to your other women."

Upon hearing Yun Xianxian's answer, Lu Chen was stunned.

Is it only a matter of time before he becomes emperor?

Does Yun Qingshu think highly of Chen Wanrong?

At this moment, Lu Chen subconsciously turned his head to look at Chen Wanrong in his arms. Under Lu Chen's direct gaze, Chen Wanrong immediately went limp, and her delicate body became slightly hot.

Seeing a slight blush creep up the cold beauty's cheeks, Lu Chen smiled and said, "I never imagined my Rongrong was so talented! Looks like I've struck gold!"

After speaking, Lu Chen used the system to check Chen Wanrong's personal information again, and found that Chen Wanrong's personal information was no different from before.

Lu Chen wondered if it was because the system hadn't been updated yet. After the last system update, when he used the system to identify other people, the information about his wives and concubines changed significantly.

He only learned Chu Yuqin's true identity after the system update.

Perhaps it was because the system had not yet been upgraded to a certain level that he was unable to detect Chen Wanrong's special constitution through the system.

Lu Chen then asked the system in his mind, "System, when will I be able to access information related to the ancient era?"

The system immediately replied, "Only after the host becomes an emperor will they be qualified to access information related to the ancient era."

Upon hearing the system's reply, Lu Chen thought to himself, "It really is because my cultivation level is insufficient."

It seems I need to speed things up and help my wives and concubines conceive.

Seeing Lu Chen fall silent, Yun Xianxian continued, "Master said she's going back to Xuan Yue Palace. If your memories return, notify her through the formation she left in the room."

Lu Chen said with a smile, "My grandmaster left so soon, I didn't even have time to show my respect to her."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Yun Xianxian glared at him.

Filial piety?

Is the filial piety he's talking about genuine filial piety?

This rebellious disciple clearly has ill intentions and is lusting after her master's body.

At this moment, Lu Chen fell into deep thought again. Yun Qingshu had gone to see each of his wives and concubines before leaving, which proved that Yun Qingshu must have discovered something about them.

Yun Qingshu first discovered Chen Wanrong's special constitution, which is why he decided to go and see his wives and concubines. In other words, Yun Qingshu believed that his wives and concubines had similarities to Chen Wanrong.

Could it be that his wives and concubines all possess special physical characteristics?

Or perhaps her wives and concubines were all related to the ancient era?

After pondering for a long time, Lu Chen still couldn't come up with a solution, and he sighed slightly.

It's gone soft. This probably involves the origin of the system. Once I become an emperor, I should know what's going on.

Lu Chen didn't think much of it afterward and focused his attention back on the main body of the Purple Sun World.

At this moment, the Zhanlong Army's flying boats had already appeared over the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty. The Great Chu Dynasty's army offered no resistance and simply allowed the Zhanlong Army's flying boats to enter the capital.

The Great Chu Dynasty was already divided, and the fact that the Grand Preceptor of the Great Chu Dynasty was a demon envoy meant that the royal family and demon cultivators must be related.

Fearing entanglement with the royal family, the major powers of the Great Chu Dynasty all chose to pledge allegiance to the Great Xia. Wherever the War Dragon Army's flying boats went, the people flocked out of the city to welcome them.

Most of the Chu Dynasty's army also chose to surrender directly; now it was up to the Chu Emperor to decide what to do.

Lu Chen did not immediately enter the palace. He saw some ministers waiting at the gate of the capital from the fairy boat. Without hesitation, Lu Chen got off the fairy boat.

The moment Lu Chen appeared in the air, all the officials of the Great Chu knelt down.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen said calmly, "Get up!"

The next moment, a little boy came to Lu Chen with a wooden tray in his hand. Inside the tray were the letter of surrender and the imperial seal.

Lu Chen glanced at the trembling little boy in front of him and asked curiously, "Where is the Chu Emperor?"

An official immediately replied, "Your Majesty, the Chu Emperor colluded with the demonic cultivators, a crime that cannot be forgiven. Knowing you were coming, he committed suicide beforehand."

"This is the youngest child of the Chu Emperor."

Lu Chen said, "So that's how it is."

Lu Chen then waved his hand, and a general next to him immediately took the wooden plate from the little boy's hand. The surrender ceremony ended, meaning that from now on, the Great Chu Dynasty would no longer exist in the Ziyang World.

After bringing the Great Chu Dynasty under his rule, Lu Chen entered the Great Chu royal treasury and examined some precious historical materials left behind by the Great Chu royal family.

The Great Chu Dynasty was an ordinary dynasty. Lu Chen searched around but couldn't find any treasures or historical materials that interested him. However, the Great Chu Dynasty did have tens of millions of low-grade spirit stones.

Although the Great Xia Dynasty obtained a considerable amount of spirit stones by relying on the sects in the Misty World, those sects in the Misty World were all extremely poor at the time. In addition, the Tianchen World itself was a world lacking in spirit stones, and the Great Xia Dynasty's treasury still has very few spirit stones.

Seeing the mountain of spirit stones in front of him, Lu Chen suddenly realized that when the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion came to submit his work, he should bring the spirit stones that the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion had accumulated over the years, right?

He had focused all his attention on the historical materials of the Tianji Pavilion and completely forgot about this matter.

Lu Chen then manipulated the puppet he had left in Black Moon City to summon Shao Yuanjia.

Upon hearing that Lu Chen had summoned him, Shao Yuanjia quickly arrived at the courtyard where the puppet Lu Chen was located.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen said directly, "With so many flying boats in your Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, besides historical records and cultivation techniques, there must be other things on them, right?"

Upon hearing Lu Chen's question, Shao Yuanjia seemed to understand something and quickly replied, "Yes, yes, we have brought all the treasures and spirit stones that the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion has collected since its founding. We will offer these things to His Majesty."

Lu Chen wasn't particularly interested in treasures; treasures from the lower cultivation world could never possibly be of a higher grade than the treasures he received as rewards from his system.

"How many spirit stones are there?"

Shao Yuanjia replied, "Your Majesty, there are a total of sixty million spirit stones."

Lu Chen frowned. "How come it's only sixty million?"

The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion is, after all, the number one power in the Ziyang World. Even the Great Chu Dynasty has ten million spirit stones. The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion must have collected hundreds of millions of spirit stones since its establishment, right?

Shao Yuanjia quickly said, "Your Majesty, I was referring to top-grade spirit stones."
