Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 1384 - 1074: The Opportunity to Save People
Chapter 1384 -1074: The Opportunity to Save People
These days, Chu Yunzhi had been rather pessimistic. In his view, even if Lu Chen used a transmission array, it would still take him several months to reach the Shenyue Dynasty.
Yet it didn’t take long before Lu Chen actually arrived at the Emperor Star of the Shenyue Dynasty.
However…
Reaching the Emperor Star of the Shenyue Dynasty was just the first step in rescuing her. The real trouble was just beginning.
For Lu Chen to enter the Imperial Palace, and then the Harem, it wouldn’t be easy to dismantle the Forbidden Spirit Array set up by Emperor Shenwu.
Just a small mistake, and Emperor Shenwu might discover him.
If he fails the first time, it will undoubtedly alert Emperor Shenwu, making it even harder to take Emperor Shenwu away then.
In the child world, Chu Yunzhi worriedly said to Lu Chen, “Don’t act recklessly, try to avoid attracting his attention.”
Lu Chen said, “Don’t worry, I know.”
Chu Yunzhi sighed slightly and then said, “If you encounter any danger, just flee immediately. Yuqin is by your side. As long as she is there, it’s as if I’m there, and I’ll be content.”
Chu Yunzhi had complicated feelings towards Lu Chen, having loved and hated him. Now she just wanted him to live well.
As for her own fate, Chu Yunzhi no longer cared.
In her view, her wishes had long been fulfilled. She once wanted to marry Lu Chen, become his spouse, and if possible, bear him a child or two.
Although these wishes weren’t fulfilled by her main body, her avatars had achieved them, and she had enjoyed unprecedented joy through them. Thus, death wasn’t scary to her anymore.
Upon hearing Chu Yunzhi’s words, Lu Chen smiled lightly, “From what you say, it seems you’ve given up hope that I could rescue you?”
Chu Yunzhi fell silent. What kind of power did Emperor Shenwu possess? He was a Ninth Layer Emperor mastering the Power of Slaughter.
Even if Emperor Shenwu was injured for some reason, he wasn’t someone Lu Chen’s emperor-level avatar could defeat.
As long as Lu Chen’s emperor-level avatar was discovered, it would undoubtedly perish. Moreover, it would reveal that Lu Chen was still alive, and Emperor Shenwu might then directly attack the Daxia Dynasty.
Seeing Chu Yunzhi’s silence, Lu Chen said, “You just wait in peace.”
With that, Lu Chen’s Divine Sense exited the child world.
After returning to his mansion from his previous life, Lu Chen immediately summoned the people who had served him before to inquire about the recent situation in the Shenyue Dynasty.
After some probing, Lu Chen discovered that Emperor Shenwu recently wasn’t in the Shenyue Dynasty, but seemed to have gone somewhere. This made Lu Chen very happy.
With Emperor Shenwu absent, his opportunity had come.
Now the problem was, what excuse should he use to enter Emperor Shenwu’s Harem?
To sneak in quietly?
That’s not easy. Even if Emperor Shenwu wasn’t there, the Imperial Palace still had many Hidden Guards, and there were emperor-level guards. If he was discovered sneaking in, it would alert the enemy.
This made Lu Chen a bit distressed. He hadn’t thought that after finally reaching the Emperor Star of the Shenyue Dynasty, he had no way to enter the Imperial Palace.
Lu Chen stayed at his mansion for a few days but found no way to infiltrate the palace. During these days, he also attempted to enter the palace, only to be turned away by the guards.
Emperor Star of the Shenyue Dynasty, Lu Chen’s mansion.
Lu Chen sat in the courtyard, gazing at the direction of the palace with a face full of melancholy.
Just then, a bolt of lightning flashed from afar, and soon the Thunderbolt Emperor descended into Lu Chen’s yard.
Seeing it was the Thunderbolt Emperor, Lu Chen asked, “What’s the matter?”
The Thunderbolt Emperor said, “Your Highness, recently there have been remnants of the Baicang Dynasty infiltrating the Shenyue Dynasty, seemingly planning to take revenge on the dynasty. You should stay cautious.”
Hearing this, Lu Chen’s eyes brightened. It was like someone offering a pillow to a sleepy person. This was his chance.
He had been worried about how to get into the palace. As long as the remnants of the Baicang Dynasty attacked the palace, he could enter under the guise of rescuing them.
However…
He didn’t know if the remnants of the Baicang Dynasty would actually attack the palace.
Returning to his senses, Lu Chen feigned a serious expression, “Alright, I understand.”
Then he asked, “By the way, where did His Majesty go? Why hasn’t he returned yet?”
Lu Chen’s biggest concern now was Emperor Shenwu suddenly returning to the Shenyue Dynasty.
Seeing Lu Chen inquire about Emperor Shenwu, the Thunderbolt Emperor thought Lu Chen was worried that his position as Crown Prince was unstable due to Emperor Shenwu’s prolonged absence. He reassured Lu Chen, “Your Highness need not worry. His Majesty went to chase the Baicang Lord. With His Majesty’s strength, it should not take long to annihilate him.”
Lu Chen, looking relieved, said, “I see, then I am at ease.”
“Alright, you go about your business. With His Majesty away, we mustn’t let the remnants of the Baicang Dynasty take advantage.”
The Thunderbolt Emperor said, “Yes, Your Highness.”
With those words, the Thunderbolt Emperor left Lu Chen’s mansion.
After the Thunderbolt Emperor left, Lu Chen thought to himself, the Baicang Lord had better hold on. If I can rescue Chu Yunzhi, I will definitely light a few incense sticks for you guys.
And so, Lu Chen waited for another two days.
The entire Emperor Star was under lockdown, many of the Shenyue Dynasty’s great emperors had returned to the star to guard against any threats from the Baicang Dynasty’s remnants.
Lu Chen patiently awaited the Baicang Dynasty’s remnants to hurry up and exact their revenge on the Shenyue Dynasty.
On the third night.
Having seen no sign of an attack from the Baicang Dynasty’s remnants, Lu Chen was rather disappointed with them.
Emperor Shenwu wasn’t even present, and they were taking so long to plan just a small incursion. If Emperor Shenwu returned, how would they even manage to invade?
As Lu Chen pondered whether to use another method to enter the palace, suddenly, he felt the ground of the Emperor Star shaking.
Soon after, a deafening roar echoed throughout the Emperor Star.
“Vermin of the Shenyue Dynasty, prepare to die!!!”
Lu Chen was initially stunned, then grew excited.
“They’re here, they’re finally here!”
“After waiting so long, they didn’t disappoint!”
Lu Chen immediately looked towards the source of the sound and saw three powerful energy fluctuations above the palace.
Lu Chen was somewhat surprised. The Baicang Dynasty still had three great emperors alive, and they even infiltrated the Emperor Star?
For some reason, Lu Chen felt something was off.
Were those three great emperors really remnants of the Baicang Dynasty? Somehow, they didn’t seem quite right to him.
As Lu Chen was in deep thought, the three great emperors simultaneously attacked the palace, and in an instant, three waves of destructive energy swept towards the palace.
As the three great emperors attacked, the palace guards reacted, and the palace’s great emperors also made their moves.
Seeing the great emperors in the palace taking action, Lu Chen didn’t hesitate and rushed directly towards the palace.
When Lu Chen entered the palace, he found that the soldiers’ attention was entirely on the three great emperors in the sky, which delighted him even more.
