Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 970 - 660 Why Did the Honored Master Send You to Find Us

After spending some time "farming" with Yun Xianxian in Black Dragon City, Lu Chen took her back to Yan County.

Yun Xianxian didn’t want to return with Lu Chen. She felt that being in Black Dragon City or Yan County was the same, as it was all within the same world anyway. Whenever Lu Chen wished to cultivate with her, the Immortal Boat could instantly take them from Yan County to Black Dragon City.

Of course, her main reason for not wanting to go back was that all of Lu Chen’s women were in Yan County. She didn’t like sharing a husband with other women, at least she didn’t want to see Lu Chen doing those things with them.

Yun Xianxian was also clear on the fact that she was no match for Lu Chen alone, but still, she harbored a strong possessiveness over him in her heart.

Yet ultimately, after being bombarded by Lu Chen’s persistence, Yun Xianxian couldn’t hold out against his methods and chose to return to Yan County with him.

As for Lu Chen, this recalcitrant disciple, Yun Xianxian now had no way to deal with him and could only follow him.

Upon returning to Yan County, Lu Chen took on the role of a hands-off shopkeeper, handing over almost all the administrative affairs to Zhuge Zhongguang while he focused on cultivation every day, as well as assisting Chu Yuqin in nurturing their child world.

He was very curious about what sort of rewards he could get from the system once the child world inside Chu Yuqin matured.

Yan County.

Imperial Palace.

Lu Chen was exercising in Chu Yuqin’s room when a maidservant’s voice came through, "Your Majesty, Commander Qin has captured some spies from Misty Immortal Sect. These spies claimed they were sent by the Great Elder of Misty Immortal Sect to look for Noble Consort Wu and Consort Li."

Hearing this, Lu Chen stopped what he was doing, curiously asking, "The Great Elder of Misty Immortal Sect?"

The maidservant continued, "According to the spies’ confessions, the Great Elder is the Honored Master of Noble Consort Wu and Consort Li."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen then said, "Let Qin Yushan bring those spies to meet Noble Consort Wu and Consort Li to see what they have to say. I will head over there later."

"Yes."

After giving instructions, Lu Chen continued to focus his attention on Chu Yuqin, who lay on a soft couch with a misty look in her eyes as she watched Lu Chen and asked, "Chen’er, what’s the difference between this child world and the minor worlds of cultivators?"

Lu Chen replied, "I don’t know either. I’ll only understand the specifics after you have fully nurtured the child world."

Lu Chen was also eager to know the specific reasons why the system required his wives to nurture child worlds. Although the system said this would help him spread his progeny further, he always felt that wasn’t the real reason.

The beings born from the child worlds have no blood relation to him at all; can they still count as his progeny? Now, it was pointless to think too much. Only after the first child world matured would he know the specifics. With that thought, Lu Chen leaned over, sealing Chu Yuqin’s red lips with a kiss, focusing on the task at hand.

Meanwhile.

Wu Junwan and Li Qianrou sat in the pavilion, drinking afternoon tea. Wu Junwan was soothing the baby in her arms while chatting with Li Qianrou about matters concerning the Misty World.

Li Qianrou said, "The Misty Immortal Sect has already sent almost three groups of disciples here, and until now, our Honored Master hasn’t sent anyone to find us, which feels somewhat amiss."

Wu Junwan gently rocked the child in her arms, saying, "Could it be that Your Majesty unwittingly killed the disciples our Honored Master sent?"

Their Honored Master sent disciples to the Misty World, certainly in the company of Misty Immortal Sect’s disciples. The people their Honored Master sent would blend in with the Misty Immortal Sect, which in Lu Chen’s eyes, naturally made them enemies.

Lu Chen had eliminated so many disciples of the Misty Immortal Sect; it was possible that some of them had been sent by their Honored Master.

After hearing Wu Junwan’s speculation, Li Qianrou hummed lightly and said, "That’s uncertain; perhaps that man knew there were people sent by our Honored Master among them, but since he doesn’t trust us, he might as well have killed all those sent by our Honored Master."

Hearing Li Qianrou speak, Wu Junwan smiled, "Qianrou, you’ve had quite a grievance against His Majesty these past few days. Could it be because he hasn’t come to see you since he returned?"

Li Qianrou replied indifferently, "What grievance? He’s always been that kind of person; such things are not beyond him."

As soon as Li Qianrou’s words fell, a female soldier dressed in a Jinyiwei Guard uniform entered the courtyard, "Greetings to Noble Consort Wu, Consort Li!"

Seeing the Jinyiwei Guard, Li Qianrou asked curiously, "What’s the matter with the Jinyiwei?"

The Jinyiwei Guard replied, "To Consort Li, in the past few days, the Jinyiwei have captured some spies from the Misty Immortal Sect. According to those spies, they are disciples sent by your Honored Master. His Majesty instructed me to bring those spies to you."

Upon hearing this, both Li Qianrou and Wu Junwan were surprised. They had just discussed the absence of their Honored Master’s messengers, and now the Jinyiwei Guard said that there were Misty Immortal Sect spies here for them.

Li Qianrou promptly said, "Where are those people now? Bring them here."

The Jinyiwei Guard said, "Please wait, they are on their way here."

It wasn’t long before several Jinyiwei Guards brought a few women dressed in coarse cloth forward to Li Qianrou and Wu Junwan.

Although all the women were beautiful, their clothes were patched and repaired as if they were destitute commoners.

Upon seeing Li Qianrou and Wu Junwan, the women were overjoyed, almost to the point of madness. They had thought they would die in the cell, never anticipating that they would be able to see Wu Junwan and Li Qianrou again.

With Wu Junwan and Li Qianrou present, they had hope for rescue.

At this moment, the women quickly spoke up, "We’ve seen Noble Sister Wu, Noble Sister Li!"

Wu Junwan surveyed the women and then said, "You look somewhat familiar."

The woman who had just spoken hurriedly said, "Noble Sister Wu, we are all disciples of Yunhai Peak, we have met before."

Wu Junwan said, "I see, then why are you dressed like this?"

Upon hearing Wu Junwan’s question, the women were momentarily stunned, then after a pause, one of the women said, "Noble Sister Wu, as soon as we arrived in the Tianchen World, we heard that Great Sum had annihilated all cultivators from the Misty World, and they are still capturing cultivators from the Misty World. We had no choice but to disguise ourselves like this."

Li Qianrou indifferently said, "You have exceptional appearances and otherworldly auras, clearly not women from poor households. Wearing such tattered clothes actually makes you more suspicious."

Feeling extremely ashamed at these words, one woman said, "Noble Sister Li is right, we were not thorough in our considerations."

Li Qianrou continued, "Tell me, why did Honored Master send you to find us two?"

As Li Qianrou’s words fell, one woman produced two letters, "Honored Master asked us to deliver these two letters to the two noble sisters, and also to remind you to find a place to hide as soon as possible, and never come out again."

Hearing these words, Li Qianrou and Wu Junwan were taken aback. They had not expected their master to instruct them to hide away.

Could it be that something happened to the Misty World?

With a wave of Li Qianrou’s hand, the two letters flew into her and Wu Junwan’s hands. They then opened the letters from Su Hanyan addressed to each of them and read them intently.

Upon finishing the contents of the letters, they learned what was going on. It turned out Han Yuankai wanted to use them both as Furnace Cauldrons, no wonder their master told them to hide away.

If it had been before, the two of them might have been a bit concerned, but now both of them had men of their own, and Lu Chen was their greatest support.

Upon reading the content of the letter, their hearts remained undisturbed.

Li Qianrou glanced over the women present and then said to them, "Honored Master said she would take you as disciples, I will not make it difficult for you. If you wish to return, then leave immediately."

Instead of leaving upon hearing this, the women knelt down promptly, "Noble Sister Li, Noble Sister Wu, we want to follow you!"

In this world, they had come to learn quite a lot about the Daxia Dynasty and the Sum Emperor, as well as the affair of the Immortal Boat.

Not only had they heard about it, but they had also seen Lu Chen’s Immortal Boat when he returned last time.

The sight of such a huge Immortal Boat had confirmed to them the extraordinary identity of the Sum Emperor. They were not fools; rather than continue to live in fear every day in the Misty Immortal Sect, they preferred to join the Daxia Dynasty, especially since their senior sister was the Sum Emperor’s Noble Consort, which was the best opportunity.

Upon seeing the women kneeling immediately, Li Qianrou smiled lightly and then said, "You are quite clever."

Su Hanyan mentioned in the letter that if these women insisted on returning, they should be eliminated, as this would mean that no one would know about Wu Junwan and Li Qianrou’s situation.

Their choice to stay had effectively spared their own lives.

Although Su Hanyan was not as fond of killing indiscriminately as Han Yuankai, she was prepared to be ruthless for the sake of her Direct Disciples.

For these female disciples, even if they died, she would not have the slightest pang of regret.

At that moment, Li Qianrou said, "From today, you are maids at our side."

Hearing this, the women immediately expressed their gratitude, "Thank you, noble sisters!"

Wu Junwan then reminded, "In the Imperial Palace, being Noble Consorts to His Majesty, you should no longer address us as senior sisters."

The women then corrected themselves, "Thank you, Noble Consort Wu, Noble Consort Li."

Just as the women finished correcting themselves, a man’s voice came from outside the courtyard, "Qianrou, Junwan, what news has your Honored Master brought you?"

As the voice fell, Lu Chen walked in from the doorway.

Li Qianrou chuckled lightly and said, "I thought Your Majesty wasn’t interested at all."

Li Qianrou knew that Lu Chen could not rest easy concerning them; in her view, Lu Chen surely suspected that their master was passing them a message, instructing them to cooperate with the Misty Immortal Sect in controlling the entire Tianchen World.

Hearing this, Lu Chen used Shadow Shifting to appear behind Li Qianrou, wrapping his arm around her delicate waist and laughing, "I am quite confident in my two consorts; if there were any important news, I believe you would take the initiative to tell me."
