Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 1330 - 1020: I was born that way

Chapter 1330 -1020: I was born that way

Seeing the bewildered look on Lu Chen’s face, Empress Tianhong found it somewhat amusing.

She now seriously doubted whether Lu Chen had ever believed that he could achieve Emperorhood through such a method.

Empress Tianhong said coldly at this moment: “You have broken through, it can end now.”

Upon hearing Empress Tianhong’s words, Lu Chen came back to his senses, but he did not withdraw.

He clearly sensed that a life had appeared inside Empress Tianhong’s body and it had already taken shape.

The child already took human form shortly after conception, most likely influenced by the Dao Charm of the Creation Dao.

Empress Tianhong then continued to speak: “I will kill this child.”

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

After regaining his composure, Lu Chen hurriedly said: “No!”

Empress Tianhong looked at Lu Chen indifferently and said: “Your initial goal was only to attain Emperorhood; now that you have achieved your goal, there’s no need to keep him.”

Empress Tianhong did not really want to bear a child for Lu Chen.

At first, she somewhat looked forward to a child resistant to the Power of Slaughter being born, as to how strong it would be, but the moment the child was formed, she suddenly discovered that the child was continuously absorbing the Power of Slaughter within her body.

That is to say, if this child continues to exist in her body, it will not only affect her cultivation but may also cause her Cultivation State to decline.

She had finally recovered some strength and did not want to fall back again.

Lu Chen was somewhat speechless; this woman was too ruthless.

It had been difficult enough for an Emperor to conceive an heir; he certainly did not want the first Emperor’s child to die prematurely.

“I was able to successfully attain Emperorhood entirely because I observed the entire process of his conception. If you kill him just like that, how am I supposed to repay the karmic debt?”

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, Empress Tianhong realized that indeed, the karmic debt Lu Chen owed was not small; it would not be easy to repay the debt for attaining Emperorhood.

However, on the other hand, this was the karmic debt Lu Chen incurred, what did it have to do with her?

Empress Tianhong said: “This has nothing to do with me.”

Right now, she only wanted to preserve her Cultivation State. As for how Lu Chen would repay the karmic debt, it was none of her concern.

Seeing that Empress Tianhong was resolute and indifferent, with her heart set on aborting the child, the corners of Lu Chen’s mouth slightly curved upwards. Then he said: “If you really want to kill him, then go ahead and kill him. If he dies, I will definitely seek revenge for him as part of repaying my karmic debt.”

“My method of seeking revenge is simple, just keep the master-servant contract.”

Empress Tianhong’s eyebrows furrowed as she said coldly, “You wish to break your promise!”

Lu Chen said: “I can’t just watch my child die in your womb.”

Hearing this, Empress Tianhong glared straight at Lu Chen, with the Evil Qi radiating from her body enveloping the entire sleeping quarters.

After a while, Empress Tianhong said: “He is absorbing the Power of Slaughter from within me, if this continues, my Cultivation State will significantly diminish.”

Lu Chen said: “I don’t believe that the speed at which a newly formed fetus absorbs the Power of Slaughter can match up to the speed at which you accumulate the Power of Slaughter.”

Empress Tianhong fell into thought, Lu Chen’s words were indeed not wrong; although the fetus inside her was indeed absorbing the Power of Slaughter rapidly, when compared to her own pace of condensing the Power of Slaughter, there was indeed a vast difference.

But…

She needs Evil Qi to condense the Power of Slaughter, and now within the Daxia Dynasty, there is no war; she cannot just kill at will, so from where can she absorb Evil Qi?

Wait a minute… freёwebnoѵel.com

It seems there might be a place to absorb Evil Qi after all…

However, the thought of maintaining such close intimacy with Lu Chen left Empress Tianhong feeling somewhat irate.

After all the trouble to help Lu Chen achieve Dao certification, she had repaid her debt of cause and effect, yet she still had to stay connected with him.

But upon further thought, considering the effects of dual cultivation with Lu Chen, even if she went to the Outer Domain, the speed at which she could restore her Cultivation State through battle would not be as fast as when she underwent dual cultivation with Lu Chen.

Wanting to quickly restore her Cultivation State to its peak, dual cultivation with Lu Chen was indeed the best choice, but as an Empress who certified Dao through killing, the notion of being constantly mingled with a man was truly hard for her to accept.

Seeing Empress Tianhong silent, apparently contemplating something, Lu Chen continued to say, “Actually, if you think about it, you still have an unreconciled cause and effect debt.”

“Look, I saved your life, and you helped me to become an Emperor; this only repays one cause and effect. The debt of helping you to become an Emperor, however, you have not yet resolved.”

“Of course, I cannot force you to repay me if you don’t wish to, after all, you are an Empress now, and with the Emperor’s Power, you could easily sever the cause and effect between us.”

At this moment, Empress Tianhong came back to her senses, and said expressionlessly, “There is no need to speak further, I was born into this.”

In her heart, Empress Tianhong thought that it was just ten months; although her Cultivation State might decline, it likely wouldn’t decrease by much. Once the child was born, the debt of cause and effect she owed would probably be cleared, and then she would be free.

Ten months was nothing for an Empress; an Empress would measure their seclusion in tens of thousands of years, so she could wait out this little time.

Only… having lain under Lu Chen for so many years left her feeling very unsettled, and now, she felt a strong urge to have a battle with someone.

Empress Tianhong said, “Tell that Empress who sought your shelter that I want to spar with him.”

Lu Chen said, “That might not be a good idea, after all, you do have a child in your womb. It’s best to wait until after the child is born before engaging in such risky activities.”

Empress Tianhong said coldly, “I am an Empress, not a mortal.”

What Empress Tianhong implied was that she wasn’t as delicate as those mortals.

Lu Chen felt the stir of Power of Slaughter within Empress Tianhong, understanding her intense desire to fight now.

Lu Chen said, “How about I spar with you?”

Empress Tianhong said, “You are not capable.”

Lu Chen chuckled, “You are provoking me.”

Now that he was an Emperor himself, the fact that Empress Tianhong said he was incapable, as a man, was something he could not endure.

Empress Tianhong continued to say, “I will not strike at you.”

In Empress Tianhong’s eyes, the method by which Lu Chen became an Emperor through a woman, even though successful, didn’t equate to true strength, and besides, he had comprehended the Creation Dao, which indeed lacked combat power.

Pei Tianlu was different; Pei Tianlu had comprehended the Power Dao, and his combat power was stronger than the average Emperor. Battling with such a person would allow her to fully vent the gloomy emotions built up over the years.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen then said, “Alright, I have no objections to you sparring with him, but when you two spar, restrain yourselves and stay away from the Daxia Dynasty.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen transmitted his voice to Pei Tianlu, “Elder Pei, I have a Noble Concubine who wishes to test her strength against you in a sparring match, how are you recovering?”

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, Pei Tianlu was suddenly stunned inside the secret chamber.

A sparring match?

He was an Emperor; to request a sparring match with him, the other party must at least be another Emperor, right?

Pei Tianlu transmitted his voice back, asking, “May I know what Cultivation State that Majesty currently possess?”

Lu Chen replied, “Great Emperor Second Realm.”

Pei Tianlu said, “Alright, then please have that Majesty choose a Star Domain.”

Pei Tianlu did not refuse the request. Even though his strength had not fully recovered, this matter was put forward by Lu Chen, and as a servant of Lu Chen, he naturally should agree.
