Chapter 1318 -1008: Indeed Impossible?

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Pei Tianlu found them a little hard to believe, as during their time in the Great Sum Empire, they had heard plenty about Lu Chen.

It is rumored that any woman Lu Chen takes a fancy to and who enters the Imperial Palace, eventually becomes Lu Chen’s woman.

The Great Sum Empire is unlike other empires; in other empires, discussing the sovereign’s affairs is strictly forbidden, but in the Great Sum Empire, people often boast about Emperor Xia’s illustrious achievements on the streets.

Including Lu Chen’s conquest of beauties from all quarters, in the eyes of the common folk, it is a matter worth boasting about.

Pei Tianlu truly doubted whether Lu Chen would let Pei Shuhua leave the Great Sum Empire.

In addition to her beauty, Pei Shuhua’s talent was also extremely high; it was very rare in the entire universe to be able to cultivate to the Quasi-Emperor Realm in just five thousand years.

In Pei Tianlu’s view, even if Emperor Xia did not fancy Pei Shuhua’s appearance, he might keep her for her cultivation talent.

Lu Chen knew that Pei Tianlu did not believe him at the moment; regarding his reputation for lust, his image in the hearts of all the citizens of the Great Sum Empire had basically reached a consensus, so whatever he said was futile.

He didn’t take it to heart, thinking that after Pei Shuhua breaks through to become a Great Emperor, Pei Tianlu would know whether what he said was true or not.

At this time, Lu Chen thought of something and asked Pei Tianlu, “Elder Pei, do you have any particular place you wish to stay?”

Pei Tianlu replied, “It doesn’t matter where this old man stays.”

“However, Shuhua needs to engage in closed-door Tao realization and cultivation; it is best for this old man to stay in Black Dragon City so that if she encounters any problems during her tribulation, I can assist her at the first moment.”

Lu Chen said, “Alright, I’ll arrange for an estate for you, Elder Pei.”

Subsequently, Lu Chen sent a message to the Brocade Guard, instructing them to find a tranquil estate for Pei Tianlu’s residence.

Pei Tianlu gave his thanks and said, “Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, this old man will not disturb you further.”

“Good. Once the estate is selected, I will have the Brocade Guard inform you. Of course, if you, Elder Pei, have any favored place to stay, you may also let the Brocade Guard know.”

Pei Tianlu said, “This old man thanks Your Majesty in advance.”

“There’s no need to be so courteous. You are a tributor of the Great Sum Royal Family, after all. If you have any needs in the future, you can also tell me,” Lu Chen replied.

“Thanks for Your Majesty’s kindness, this old man shall take his leave!”

Lu Chen nodded without saying anything more, and Pei Tianlu turned and left the Imperial Study Room.

Meanwhile, Pei Shuhua and a group of maids arrived at the Fenghua Hall.

Upon entering the Fenghua Hall, Pei Shuhua asked, “Where did you buy these clothes you’re wearing?”

The head maid answered, “These clothes were recently made by the Garment Bureau and have not been mass-produced yet. They were reportedly designed by His Majesty.”

Hearing this, Pei Shuhua was somewhat incredulous. Such beautiful clothes were actually designed by Lu Chen?

Lu Chen, a founder of an empire, has so much free time that he actually designs clothes for women?

“His Majesty also designs women’s attire?” Pei Shuhua asked curiously.

The head maid replied, “Yes, most of the popular clothing styles in the Daxia Dynasty have been created by His Majesty. Initially, these clothes were only worn by the nobility in the palace. If they received good feedback, the Garment Bureau would then mass-produce them and sell them to the people of Great Sum.”

In her heart, Pei Shuhua thought that Lu Chen, the ruler of the empire, was indeed different from rulers of other empires; this was her first time hearing about an emperor who designed clothes for women.

Although Lu Chen had long since passed the position of the emperor to his child, as the founder of the empire, he still held absolute power. A person with absolute power doing such things seemed very strange to everyone.

Suddenly, a thought struck Pei Shuhua’s heart: so, most of the clothes she liked were essentially designed by Lu Chen?

Especially those intimate garments…

How rich in experience must this lecher be, to have designed such clothing.

However, Pei Shuhua felt relieved thinking about how many wives and concubines this lecher had.

At this moment, the head maid walked to a wall in the great hall and said: “Miss Pei, the chamber for cultivation is right below here.”

While speaking, the head maid operated the Formation, opening the entrance passage, and a descending stairwell appeared before Pei Shuhua’s eyes.

The moment the underground passage appeared, Pei Shuhua could feel an even denser Spiritual Energy surge from inside, and this energy had already congealed into a substantial mist.

Pei Shuhua was slightly startled. Such dense Spiritual Energy—could it be that there are spirit stone veins beneath Black Dragon City?

Without thinking too much, Pei Shuhua walked straight into the underground passage, and what caught her eyes was a vast Underground Palace, with many rooms around it.

The presence of Spiritual Energy Liquid in the Underground Palace excited Pei Shuhua internally. If she were to seclude herself for cultivation in such a place, the possibility of her proving her path and ascending to Emperor status would become even greater.

Ascension to Emperor status requires vast Spiritual Energy. If the energy is insufficient, breakthrough failure could possibly occur, and a large amount of Spiritual Energy is also needed during tribulation.

It’s undeniable that Lu Chen’s Imperial Palace is indeed an excellent place for breakthroughs.

At this time, the head maid said: “Miss Pei, if you need anything, just send us a message, and we will take our leave.”

Pei Shuhua indifferently replied: “Okay.”

As her words fell, Pei Shuhua randomly chose a cultivation chamber and prepared to go into seclusion.

However, just at that moment, suddenly a vast Spiritual Power spread out from the Imperial Palace, like a stone dropping into water, creating ripples after ripples.

Pei Shuhua frowned slightly, this Spiritual Power was extremely violent, and even mixed with complex Dao Charm.

Pei Shuhua suddenly realized, someone is proving the path to become a Great Emperor!!!

Unexpectedly, the Daxia Dynasty was about to gain another Great Emperor so soon. If the person currently proving the path succeeded, then the Daxia Dynasty wouldn’t have to fear the Qingyun Dynasty knocking at their door.

However, as Pei Shuhua was distracted for a moment, the surge of Spiritual Power suddenly dissipated, and the Dao Charm vanished as well.

Pei Shuhua murmured to herself: “What a pity.”

Clearly, that person failed to prove the path.

In the Imperial Study Room, Lu Chen also sensed that Empress Tianhong failed to prove her path.

He was uncertain whether he should comfort her or not, and after some thought, Lu Chen still decided not to risk his luck.

After all, Empress Tianhong was an Empress in her previous life. Her mentality was unlikely to be so fragile, it was just one failure after all.

However, at this time, Empress Tianhong’s condition was obviously not as good as Lu Chen imagined. Her complexion was flushed, her entire body covered in sweat, her red gauze dress soaked through with sweat, the hair on her forehead damp and stuck together.

After Empress Tianhong opened her eyes, she looked at the red thread entwined around her body and murmured: “So it really won’t work.”

Empress Tianhong was clear on where the problem laid. She had anticipated the possibility of failure from the start, but she always refused to believe that she had to do so, thus she attempted to forcefully break through.

Unfortunately, reality still slapped her in the face.

Her body was tainted with Lu Chen’s extensive karma, and entwined tightly by Lu Chen’s marriage line. If she does not become Lu Chen’s woman and repay the karma, she cannot achieve an undisturbed state of mind.
