Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 1376 - 1066: Emperor Shenwu Emerges from Seclusion

Chapter 1376 -1066: Emperor Shenwu Emerges from Seclusion

Upon hearing Empress Tianhong’s words, Lu Chen smiled faintly and then replied, “Your man.”

Seeing that Lu Chen was unwilling to speak, Empress Tianhong did not press further; everyone had their own secrets, and it was fine if Lu Chen didn’t want to share.

Empress Tianhong’s cold gaze swept over Lu Chen’s entire body, and she directly approached him, “Recently, my cultivation state has declined.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Empress Tianhong unhesitatingly pushed Lu Chen down onto the cultivation mat.

Lu Chen did not resist at all. Over the years, Empress Tianhong had always been more proactive; perhaps because the child in her womb was too restless, her power was being excessively absorbed by the child, forcing her to continuously cultivate just to maintain her current state.

Entering a cultivation state with Lu Chen, Empress Tianhong closed her eyes and felt Lu Chen’s heat.

At this moment, Lu Chen released his power to check on the child in Empress Tianhong’s womb. Compared to Chu Yuqin, Empress Tianhong had conceived quicker, yet Chu Yuqin’s child was already born, while there was still no movement from the child in Empress Tianhong’s womb.

Even Empress Tianhong’s abdomen had not yet shown any sign of swelling, which puzzled Lu Chen.

After a thorough examination, Lu Chen found that there was no problem with the child in Empress Tianhong’s womb; just like years ago, the child’s body hadn’t grown much and continued to absorb Empress Tianhong’s power of slaughter incessantly.

This made Lu Chen a bit worried. Starting to absorb the power of slaughter from such a young age, who knows what this child will turn out to be after birth?

Will the child be full of evil qi and want to kill right after being born?

Lu Chen sighed slightly, not thinking further. Only when the child was born would they know if it was normal. Worrying too much now was useless.

If this child could control the power of slaughter after birth, it might actually be a good thing for them, as it would mean another Great Emperor mastering the power of slaughter in their future.

Empress Tianhong’s combat strength was already terrifying. If this child’s talent exceeded that of Empress Tianhong in the future and became even stronger, they would be more confident in facing the Heavenly Demon and other threats to the Daxia Dynasty.

Shenyue Dynasty.

Emperor Star, Heavenly Royal Palace.

Emperor Shenwu, dressed in a yellow dragon robe, stood in front of a cracked purple cauldron with an extremely solemn expression, muttering to himself, “I didn’t expect it to fall apart so quickly.”

“It seems we must continue to expand. I need more dynast qi fortune.”

Emperor Shenwu then instructed the hidden guard beside him, “Immediately summon the domain lords of all major star domains; I will hold a Great Court Assembly.”

Hearing this, the hidden guard was momentarily stunned. Emperor Shenwu had not dealt with imperial affairs for a long time; in recent years, it had always been Empress Shenwu managing everything.

Now, Emperor Shenwu actually wanted to hold a Great Court Assembly.

The hidden guard quickly responded, “Yes, Your Majesty!”

Then, the hidden guard spread the news that Emperor Shenwu was to hold a Great Court Assembly. Within a month, this news had spread throughout the entire Central Star Domain.

Emperor Shenwu holding a Great Court Assembly signified that he was also preparing to resist the great calamity. Various dynasties had already been attacking other dynasties to acquire their qi fortune in preparation for the calamity.

Emperor Shenwu ending his seclusion at this time likely had a similar purpose. Realizing this possibility, super forces throughout the universe fell into panic.

Given Emperor Shenwu’s strength, if he truly intended to rekindle war, there would be few dynasties in the universe capable of opposing the Shenyue Dynasty.

Two months later.

Shenyue Dynasty, Jinluan Hall.

The grand and majestic Jinluan Hall stood a full hundred meters high. The entire hall had one hundred pillars crafted from xianjin, each weighing thousands of tons, exuding extreme luxury.

At the top of the hall were two glittering chairs, both made from xianjin; one was the Dragon Throne, the other the Phoenix Chair.

The massive figure of Emperor Shenwu sat on the Dragon Throne. Compared to Emperor Shenwu, Chu Yunzhi in her Phoenix Robe looked exceptionally petite, her willow-like waist not even as thick as one of Emperor Shenwu’s legs.

Emperor Shenwu glanced at the domain lords present and then said coldly, “I have been in seclusion for too long, and some have forgotten the existence of the Shenyue Dynasty. Now, with the great calamity approaching, some dynasties not only refuse to unite to discuss countermeasures against the calamity but are instead waging wars everywhere.”

“As a super force of the universe, the Shenyue Dynasty must maintain the order of the entire universe.”

Upon hearing this, the domain lords in the hall immediately became excited. They had been dormant for too long; finally, Emperor Shenwu was going to wage war again.

In the next moment, the hall resonated with the voices of the domain lords.

“We are willing to be Your Majesty’s sword; wherever Your Majesty points, we shall sweep away all obstacles for Your Majesty!”

Seeing this scene, Chu Yunzhi on the Phoenix Chair couldn’t help but have a bead of sweat slide down her neck.

Emperor Shenwu preparing for war likely implied that one of Emperor Shenwu’s children was about to break through to the Saint Realm.

In other words, Emperor Shenwu was about to initiate a reincarnation process. Once successful, she would become his furnace cauldron.

She had to find a way to escape from the Shenyue Dynasty!

Emperor Shenwu, pleased with the domain lords’ response, then declared, “Convey my orders: effective immediately, march against the Baicang Dynasty!”

With that, the hall once again echoed with the domain lords’ battle cries, “War!!!”

“War!!!”

“War!!!”

…

After the court was dismissed, a pale-faced Chu Yunzhi returned to her chambers.

Standing by the bed, she anxiously looked into the distance. At this moment, she instructed her maid, “Immediately find out which prince has broken through to the Saint Realm!”

After entwining with Lu Chen many times using Chu Yuqin’s body, her heart was filled only with Lu Chen. She could not allow herself to become another’s furnace cauldron.

Chu Yunzhi was also clear that with her quasi-emperor cultivation, escaping the cage set by Emperor Shenwu was nearly impossible.

But if she could find the prince who had become a Saint and eliminate him, preventing Emperor Shenwu from seizing a new body, he wouldn’t act against her for a while.

After the maid left the room, Chu Yunzhi immediately used her divine sense to inform Chu Yuqin of the changes within the Shenyue Dynasty.

At that moment, Chu Yuqin was in her chamber feeding her child. Realizing the severity of the situation after hearing Chu Yunzhi’s words, she quickly sent a message to one of Lu Chen’s clones.

Upon receiving the message from Chu Yuqin, Lu Chen’s quasi-emperor clone instantly appeared in her chamber. Seeing Chu Yuqin’s anxious expression, Lu Chen asked puzzledly, “What’s wrong?”

“Did something happen to Sheng’er?”

Lu Chen thought the child was in trouble.

Chu Yuqin directly said, “Emperor Shenwu has left seclusion and intends to wage war externally. He likely has a seizing body that has broken through to the Saint Realm and is preparing for reincarnation.”

This…

Lu Chen was taken aback.

If Emperor Shenwu successfully reincarnated, he would probably use Chu Yunzhi’s Chaotic Spirit Body to restore his cultivation.

This was bad news for him; Chu Yunzhi was his designated pet, meant to be his female slave to repay her debt in the future. How could she become Emperor Shenwu’s furnace cauldron?

However, rescuing Chu Yunzhi would not be an easy task.
