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

Lu Chen had read a lot of online novels, and Lie Wende's life experience gave him a strong sense of déjà vu.

It's no wonder that Livind had a 95% loyalty rating when he first saw him. In Livind's eyes, they were not invaders, but rather his saviors.

If it weren't for their arrival, Lie Wende would probably still be imprisoned, his life essence extracted for Lie Haoyan's cultivation.

Even if the Great Xia Dynasty killed him, he would still be grateful to the Great Xia Dynasty for helping him to be free. Being constantly having his essence extracted was worse than death.

Lu Chen then said, "Since I saved you, you should know what to do next."

Upon hearing this, Lie Wende unhesitatingly took a drop of essence blood from between his eyebrows. "This is my life essence blood. From now on, I am your servant."

Lie Wende handed over his life essence directly, partly because Lu Chen had indeed been kind to him, and partly because he understood that the Lieyan Dynasty was now under the control of the Xia Emperor, and the entire royal family, including himself, had no choice.

If they voluntarily surrender their life essence, they can live a few more days; if they are unwilling to surrender their life essence, their only fate will be death.

Without hesitation, Lu Chen collected Lie Wende's life essence blood and then said, "You are a smart man. From now on, you will be the new emperor of the Blazing Flame Dynasty."

Lie Wende immediately said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen then said to Yin Zhengye, "That's settled then. I'll leave the rest to you. I'm going back to the Immortal Ship."

The next step is simply to support Lie Wende's ascension to the throne and then clean up the resistance forces in this world. They have already conquered a world and have enough experience, so Lu Chen doesn't need to do everything himself.

Yin Zhengye replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

As soon as Yin Zhengye finished speaking, Lu Chen's body disappeared from the spot.

Yin Zhengye's gaze returned to Lie Wende. "Let's go, come with me to see the entire court of your Flame Dynasty and your brothers and sisters."

At this moment, the square outside the council hall of the Blazing Flame Dynasty was already packed with people.

Almost all the civil and military officials had arrived, and the heads of the major powers were also present. Of course, the royal family was also there.

The square was very noisy, with people speculating about what would happen in the future.

"Alas, I never thought the Blazing Flame Dynasty would come to this."

"I wonder if the Xia Emperor will kill us all."

"Probably not. If Emperor Xia wanted to kill us, those ancestral elders who participated in the attack on Tianchen World wouldn't have been able to come back alive either."

"You're right, we'll definitely be fine, but the Lie family is probably going to suffer."

……

Some of the people present looked worried, while others gloated. They all knew very well that the world of Blazing Flames was about to change.

After an unknown amount of time, Yin Zhengye brought Lie Wende to the square. The moment Yin Zhengye arrived at the square, he immediately released his oppressive aura.

Those present instantly felt immense pressure, and some of the more timid and weaker individuals immediately knelt on the ground.

Terrification was evident in everyone's eyes. Was this a powerhouse at the Returning Void Realm?! This aura was terrifying!

At this moment, Yin Zhengye spoke up, saying, "From today onwards, Lie Wende will be the new emperor of the Blazing Flame Dynasty."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned.

Lie Wende? Is he the prince born to that palace maid, and the one imprisoned by Emperor Lie for rebelling?

Emperor Lie has many children, and not everyone present knows all the princes and princesses. The reason people know Lie Wende is mainly because he was once a prodigy. His cultivation speed is exceptionally fast, and many people even believe that even if he cannot become the crown prince because of his mother's status, he will still be able to be enfeoffed as a king and have his own territory in the future.

However, Lie Wende was later found to be involved in treason and was imprisoned by the emperor. From then on, Lie Wende's status plummeted, and people lost all contact with him afterward.

Many people who knew the inside story were surprised. Lie Wende had been drained of his life essence for so many years and was still alive. They thought Lie Wende had died long ago.

If Lie Wende were to become a puppet emperor, the members of the royal family would likely suffer. Those princes and princesses had humiliated and tormented him in the past. Once Lie Wende takes power, he would probably target the royal family members first, since this would be considered a pledge of allegiance to the Xia Emperor.

Not killing his own people doesn't prove his loyalty.

At this moment, a prince suddenly stepped forward and said, "Senior, I wonder if the throne was decided by His Majesty the Xia Emperor himself, or by you?"

Upon hearing this question, Yin Zhengye narrowed his eyes, looked at the prince, and asked with a smile, "Why are you asking these questions?"

The prince continued, "If it is your decision, senior, then I wonder if you could reconsider this position? I believe I am more suitable to be emperor than he is."

Upon hearing this, Yin Zhengye chuckled, and the next moment, the prince's body exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

Upon seeing this, the members of the royal family were so frightened that they dared not utter a word.

At this moment, Yin Zhengye asked, "Is there any other prince present who wants to be emperor? Please step forward."

Upon hearing this, the members of the royal family trembled with fear. In this situation, they dared not think of anything else; they were just glad to be alive.

At this moment, several princes immediately said, "We will follow your instructions, senior!"

At this point, everyone said in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Seeing that everyone present had lowered their heads, Yin Zhengye nodded and said, "You are all quite sensible. His Majesty personally decided on Lie Wende's throne. I believe you should know what to do."

Lie Wende's strength is relatively weak. If someone with ulterior motives wants to replace him, they will definitely send an assassin to kill him.

Yin Zhengye was also reminding everyone present that Lie Wende was the spokesperson for the Great Xia Dynasty, and if anything happened to him, everyone present would suffer as well.

Then everyone said in unison again, "We will remember your words, senior."

"Alright, make preparations. The coronation ceremony will be held tomorrow."

……

After returning to the Flying Rainbow Immortal Ship, Lu Chen sighed again. He had finally encountered another woman with a score of over ninety, only to find out that she was the reincarnation of an emperor.

Although he thought to himself that there are plenty of fish in the sea, and that once he left this star field, he could have as many women as he wanted with a score of 90, he still felt a great sense of regret.

That's just how people are; the more unattainable something is, the more they crave it.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen finally said, "Someone come here."

Subsequently, Lu Chen drafted an imperial edict, listing Lie Hongyun as one of his imperial concubines.

Although he couldn't have her for the time being, Lu Chen thought that a woman who scored 90 points must have something special about her, and they might meet again in the future, so he might as well just make her a concubine.

At this very moment, at the pinnacle of a certain world, a vortex-shaped hole slowly opened, and Lie Hongyun emerged from within.

The next moment, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her expression became very serious, as if she had discovered something amiss.

Lie Hongyun muttered to herself, "What's going on? Why did I suddenly have a marriage thread?" (End of Chapter)
