Chapter 1314 -1004: What Is This Power!!!

Lu Chen had identified Pei Shuhua’s identity using the system the moment he entered the hotel’s private room and had been thinking about how to keep her around from the very beginning.

Unexpectedly, Pei Tianlu took the initiative to bring up this matter.

Lu Chen glanced at Pei Shuhua and said with a smile, “Senior, are you not worried that Your Majesty would hand her over to your enemies by letting Princess Junwan stay in the Daxia Dynasty?”

“After all, there is only one Great Emperor in the Daxia Dynasty, hardly a match for your enemies.”

Pei Tianlu indeed had such concerns, but his time was running short and he could no longer continue to protect Pei Shuhua.

Furthermore, Pei Shuhua had the Breaking Realm Pearl he gave her, even if Daxia really planned to hand her over to the Qingyun Dynasty, she could escape using the Breaking Realm Pearl.

Pei Tianlu said, “For Daxia to develop so prosperously in such a remote part of the universe truly shows that Your Majesty is no ordinary person. I believe in Your Majesty’s capabilities and that you would not fear the Qingyun Dynasty.”

“If Your Majesty is willing to do this favor for me, I can offer Your Majesty a valuable gift in return.”

“I believe Your Majesty would be interested in a legacy left by a Great Emperor.”

Pei Tianlu was about to head to the edge of the universe, and the treasures he had were of no use to him anymore.

The important treasures had already been given to Pei Shuhua, but a Great Emperor accumulates many treasures over a lifetime.

Great Emperors typically leave a legacy upon death, and he would also do so, believing the Daxia would be interested in these things left by him, a Great Emperor.

This deal was very beneficial for the Daxia.

Of course, Daxia might renege, but Pei Tianlu no longer had the inclination to think about this, believing that even if Daxia did renege, Pei Shuhua would be able to protect herself.

Hearing Pei Tianlu’s words, Lu Chen merely smiled and then said, “If it were others, they might indeed be interested in the Great Emperor’s legacy, but I am different from ordinary people, and such a legacy is of no use to me.”

This…

Pei Tianlu found it hard to believe. How could there be someone in the world not interested in the legacy of a Great Emperor?

Lu Chen continued, “However, I could agree to Senior’s trade, but on a different condition.”

Pei Tianlu asked, “What condition?”

Lu Chen said indifferently, “I will help you eliminate the Dark Power within your body, and from this day forward, you will guard the Daxia Dynasty.”

To Lu Chen, the legacy of a Great Emperor was not as valuable as having a Great Emperor as an enforcer.

Moreover, retaining Pei Tianlu meant indirectly keeping Pei Shuhua as well.

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Pei Tianlu was stunned, and said somewhat agitatedly, “Impossible… How could you possibly have a way to eliminate Dark Power?”

As a Great Emperor who had tried various methods, he had been unable to rid his body of that eerie Dark Power, he did not believe a Saint would have a way.

Lu Chen smiled and said, “Just because Senior has no way, doesn’t mean I don’t have one.”

“Senior only needs to say whether you are willing or not.”

Pei Tianlu fell silent for a moment. If the Dark Power in his body could truly be eliminated, then with the vitality of a Great Emperor, he could still live another thousand years or so.

And for him, guarding the Daxia Dynasty wasn’t a big deal, but he found the condition somewhat too easy.

Then, Pei Tianlu said, “Is it really just as simple as guarding the Daxia Dynasty?”

Lu Chen continued, “It’s that simple, of course, to ensure that Senior keeps their word, I will need to implant the Soul Control Seal in you first.”

Pei Tianlu frowned. Although he did not know what the Soul Control Seal was, just hearing its name, he knew it was not something benign.

Pei Tianlu immediately asked, “What is the Soul Control Seal?”

Lu Chen directly replied, “The Soul Control Seal is similar to controlling a person using their Lifeblood Essence.”

Pei Tianlu said, “You should know that means such as the use of Lifeblood Essence cannot control the Great Emperor.”

The lifespan of the Great Emperor has little to do with his physical body, as his life is solely connected to his Divine Soul. Thus, things like Lifeblood Essence cannot control the life and death of the Great Emperor.

Lu Chen said, “This is just a similar method, but the actual effect is better than the Lifeblood Essence.”

Hearing the conversation between Lu Chen and Pei Tianlu, Pei Shuhua, who was beside them, said with some worry, “Ancestor, we must not!”

Although she also knew that the Great Emperor was difficult to control, what if the Soul Control Seal mentioned by Emperor Xia could control the Great Emperor? She did not want to see their ancestor become a walking corpse in the end.

Pei Tianlu said, “I must say, for a person who is about to die, extending life is indeed very tempting.”

“If Your Majesty can truly help this old man eliminate the Dark Power, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for this old man to remain in the Daxia Dynasty and protect it for the rest of my life.”

As death approaches, the Chiyue Dynasty isn’t so important to Pei Tianlu anymore.

And for him, his current mission is to eliminate the Dark Power.

Upon learning that the Dark Power could transform someone into a Heavenly Demon, Pei Tianlu realized how much disaster this power could bring to the entire universe.

He did not wish to become a sinner of the universe as his life was nearing its end.

Although initially, he planned to use his own life to seal the Dark Power, it was uncertain whether he could seal this power or if it would leak out after his death.

If Emperor Xia truly possesses the ability to eliminate the Dark Power, having him stay in the Daxia Dynasty is not a big deal.

Lu Chen said, “In that case, it seems you have agreed.”

Pei Tianlu said, “Anyway, I am about to die; does Your Majesty think I have other choices?”

Lu Chen responded, “Since you have agreed, let us begin.”

“Senior, open your heart and mind.”

In the midst of speaking, Lu Chen’s Divine Sense directly entered Pei Tianlu’s Sea of Divine Soul. Feeling the invasion of Lu Chen’s Divine Sense, Pei Tianlu was momentarily startled.

He did not expect that a mere Saint could enter his Sea of Divine Soul so easily.

Pei Tianlu tried to calm the Spiritual Power inside his body and opened his mind as Lu Chen advised.

Seeing that Pei Tianlu’s mind was fully open, Lu Chen was about to use the Soul Control Seal, when suddenly a black mist appeared inside Pei Tianlu’s Divine Soul.

“Who dares to invade my Divine Soul!”

“I haven’t eaten for a long time, hehehe, let me devour you!”

Seeing the black mist, Lu Chen chuckled.

At that moment, the Death Qi around Pei Tianlu surged dramatically, making Pei Shuhua extremely nervous.

She knew that if something happened to Pei Tianlu now, the Dark Power in his body might spread out, possibly corrupting not only her but potentially the entire Daxia Dynasty as well.

Thinking of the Daxia Dynasty being corrupted by the Dark Power and producing countless Heavenly Demons, Pei Shuhua became increasingly anxious.

Sensing the black mist drawing nearer, Lu Chen swiftly activated the Chaos Demon Slaying Technique.

The black mist hadn’t even approached Lu Chen’s Divine Sense when it was burned by the white force released from Lu Chen’s Divine Sense, causing it to cry out in agony.

“No!!!”

“What kind of power is this!!! Why can it hurt me!!!”

“Spare me, and I can grant you wealth and honor!!!”

Seeing the black mist wailing miserably, Pei Tianlu was completely astonished. He had never expected that the Heart Demon which had always troubled him would face such a day.
