Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 973 - 663: Chen’er, You Shouldn’t Have Used That Mirror in Front of Me

Seeing the Space-Time Mirror floating in the air, Lu Chen could hardly wait to use the Holy Artifact to contact the underlings from Black Dragon Holy Land.

Immediately, Lu Chen kept infusing Spiritual Power into the Space-Time Mirror. Although the mirror had powerful functions, it was still somewhat strenuous for the current Lu Chen to use.

After all, being a Holy Artifact, it required a tremendous amount of Spiritual Power, and Lu Chen was almost drained by the Space-Time Mirror.

Fortunately, just when the Spiritual Power inside Lu Chen was about to be exhausted, the Space-Time Mirror finally located Tianyuan World and projected the scenery of Black Dragon Holy Land.

Within the Holy Lord Great Hall, Yin Zhengye was listening to a report from an Elder.

Upon hearing the Elder say that Lu Yanghua had also sent people to Xuan Yue Palace, demanding the Palace Master to hand over the star map coordinates of Tianchen World, Yin Zhengye fell into deep thought.

He did not know the relationship between Lu Yanghua and Lu Chen, but he always felt that this Lu Yanghua was not solely after an Immortal Spirit Body.

Lu Yanghua had grown incredibly fast during his time in Tianyuan World, becoming the most powerful being in less than a hundred years.

The Black Dragon Holy Land was different from the other forces of Tianyuan World; they had some knowledge about worlds beyond theirs. Although they did not know the specific identity of Lu Yanghua, they could guess that he likely came from some Empire.

Yin Zhengye was well aware that their lord also came from an Empire and shared the surname Lu, suggesting that Lu Yanghua could very well be related to their lord.

With Lu Yanghua being such a powerful presence, if he learned the location of Tianchen World, would it bring trouble to Lu Chen?

As Yin Zhengye was deep in thought, he suddenly had a feeling of being watched, a feeling that was very familiar to him, but he immediately became alert.

"Who’s there!"

The next moment, a figure appeared in the great hall. The figure was somewhat blurry, but Yin Zhengye recognized Lu Chen at a glance.

Seeing it was Lu Chen, Yin Zhengye was overjoyed. Regaining his composure, he knelt on the ground fervently, and the Elders and others in the hall also knelt down in unison.

"Welcome back, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen said indifferently, "Rise."

After everyone stood up, Yin Zhengye said excitedly, "Your Majesty, you have finally returned! We have been searching for you for over a thousand years!"

Hearing these words, Lu Chen was stunned. In his view, Black Dragon Holy Land was just a force awarded to him by the system; he did not realize it had any special relationship with him.

Lu Chen cleared his throat, then said, "I am now the Emperor of Tianchen World. I am speaking to you through a special magical artifact. Time is short, so I will not waste words."

"You must quickly find the location of Tianchen World and send people here."

Yin Zhengye immediately responded, "Your Majesty, we already have news of Tianchen World. Disciples of Xuan Yue Palace have discovered Tianchen World. As long as Xuan Yue Palace is willing to hand over the star map coordinates, we can soon send people to Tianchen World."

Hearing Yin Zhengye mention Xuan Yue Palace, Lu Chen immediately thought of Yun Xianxian. It seemed that Xuan Yue Palace had indeed sent people to locate Tianchen World, but they might have encountered some issues, preventing them from entering Tianchen World.

But since the people of Xuan Yue Palace had already discovered Tianchen World, it wouldn’t be long before Tianchen World would have to face Xuan Yue Palace.

Uncertain about the strength of the first group of Xuan Yue Palace Disciples to arrive at Tianchen World, Lu Chen feared that if they were too powerful, he might truly have to take his wives and concubines and flee Tianchen World on the Immortal Boat.

With this in mind, Lu Chen said, "Immediately find out how long it will take for Xuan Yue Palace people to arrive at Tianchen World, and what the strength of the first group of disciples who discovered Tianchen World is."

Yin Zhengye said with a bow, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen asked, "Do you know anything about the movements of Lu Yanghua?"

At this question, Yin Zhengye’s heart skipped a beat. They had just been speculating whether there was any relationship between Lu Yanghua and their lord and were somewhat worried that Lu Yanghua might bring trouble to their lord.

Now that their lord had directly inquired about this person, it confirmed that their lord indeed had some connection with Lu Yanghua, but it was uncertain whether that relationship was that of friend or foe.

Yin Zhengye promptly said, "Your Majesty, we do have some recent information on Lu Yanghua. When he learned that Xuan Yue Palace knew the coordinates of Tianchen World, he coerced Xuan Yue Palace to surrender the star map coordinates."

Hearing Yin Zhengye’s words, Lu Chen frowned. He was unsure if Lu Yanghua was going for Yun Xianxian.

Or if Lu Yanghua already knew he was in Tianchen World and thus wanted to send someone to cause him trouble?

This was not exactly good news for him. Seeing Lu Chen frowning without speaking, Yin Zhengye could tell that the relationship between Lu Yanghua and Lu Chen was adversarial.

Yin Zhengye immediately said, "Your Majesty, we must find a way to hold off Lu Yanghua to prevent him..."

Before Yin Zhengye could finish his sentence, Lu Chen interrupted, "There’s no need. Lu Yanghua is the son of a Great Emperor and controls a lot of power. The Black Dragon Holy Land should prioritize preserving its strength and avoid conflict with Lu Yanghua unless absolutely necessary."

The Black Dragon Holy Land was a force given to Lu Chen by the system, and he certainly didn’t want it destroyed by the son of a Great Emperor like Lu Yanghua before he had the chance to use it himself.

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Yin Zhengye immediately replied, "Yes, I understand."

Lu Chen continued, "By the way, is Lu Yanghua still in the Tianyuan World now?"

Yin Zhengye answered, "After Lu Yanghua broke through to the Divinity Transformation Realm, he left the Tianyuan World, but he established the Shenwu Dynasty there. Now all powers in the Tianyuan World are under the management of the Shenwu Dynasty."

Lu Chen thought to himself that it seemed Lu Yanghua had already returned to the Qianyuan World, to the Shenyue Dynasty. This was not good news at all.

With Lu Yanghua, the son of a Great Emperor, returning to the Shenyue Dynasty, it meant he could mobilize even more resources. If he truly intended to cause trouble for Lu Chen, just sending a slightly more powerful force could be more than he could handle.

No, he couldn’t just sit around and wait for doom. It was time to have Yin Zhengye urgently send someone to the Tianchen World.

Lu Chen said, "Find a way to send someone to the Tianchen World before Lu Yanghua’s people arrive."

Yin Zhengye responded, "As you command, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen went on, "Furthermore, I have established a dynasty, so from now on, you should not refer to me as Your Majesty."

Yin Zhengye instantly understood Lu Chen’s intention and promptly corrected himself, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

In the eyes of Yin Zhengye and the others, someone as formidable as their lord was certainly not content with establishing merely a mundane dynasty.

The likely goal of their lord in founding a dynasty was to create an Empire. In an increasingly crowded cosmic space, founding an Empire would mean facing the siege of other Empires—a huge challenge for any new Empire. Therefore, a newly founded Empire could not simply proclaim itself as such from the outset, unless it sought its own destruction.

At that moment, Lu Chen’s image began to flicker. The Spiritual Power inside Lu Chen’s body was almost depleted. He quickly said, "My Spiritual Power is nearly exhausted. We’ll have to stop for today… like this…"

Lu Chen had barely finished speaking when his projected image disappeared on the spot.

Seeing the great hall empty once again, Yin Zhengye and a few Elders looked at each other. Coming back to their senses, Yin Zhengye immediately said, "We can’t keep waiting like this. I must personally go to the Mysterious Moon Palace to ask the Palace Master for the coordinates of the Tianchen World!"

If they continued to wait, it was likely that the people Lu Yanghua sent would reach the Tianchen World before them. This would be very dangerous for their lord, and they had to hurry to send someone to protect him.

With this in mind, Yin Zhengye walked out of the great hall. At first, he had sent a formal request hoping to meet with the master of the Mysterious Moon Palace.

But the master of the Mysterious Moon Palace had not responded, neither refusing nor agreeing.

...

Chu Yuqin lay on the bed, stunned by everything Lu Chen had just said to the mirror.

After all, she was the secondary body of the Empress Shenwu, possessing most of the Empress’s memories. She could naturally see that the mirror was extraordinary.

But she couldn’t figure out why such a mirror would appear in a trial world. Furthermore, even if Lu Chen’s cultivation resources included this mirror, her primary body would never allow it to appear in this world.

A mirror capable of communicating with other worlds would inevitably be regarded as beyond the Heaven Rank. Lu Chen must have obtained such a treasured Spiritual Artifact from somewhere.

Lu Chen came back to his senses and stowed the Space-Time Mirror away. He smiled at Chu Yuqin and said, "Madam Chu, I was wrong to neglect you just now."

When she heard this, Chu Yuqin sighed softly, then said, "Chen’er, you shouldn’t have used that mirror in front of me."

"Although my primary body has severed all connections with me and cut off karma as well, she can still merge with my body."

"If one day I fall into her hands and she forces a merger, she will be able to access all my memories, and naturally, she will learn of the existence of such an object in your possession."

Lu Chen replied with a smile, "For her to merge with you, she’d have to be in your presence, right? But it won’t be easy for her to leave the Shenyue Dynasty now."

Chu Yuqin said, "She could also send people to capture me and bring me back."

Lu Chen stated, "If she really wanted to capture you and bring you back, she wouldn’t have severed karma. In her eyes, you as a secondary body no longer hold any value."

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Chu Yuqin did not continue that topic. At that moment, Lu Chen took hold of Chu Yuqin’s wrist and asked with concern, "Madam Chu, how are you feeling now?"
