Chapter 1334 -1024: Confronting Chu Yunzhi
Upon hearing Empress Tianhong’s reminder, Lu Chen fell into deep thought.
He hoped in his heart that the Great Emperor coming to the Daxia Dynasty was not his cruel and vicious father.
Though he had reached the Great Emperor Second Realm, his strength was still nowhere near that of a veteran late-period Great Emperor like Emperor Shenwu.
Apart from Emperor Shenwu, the invading Great Emperor would likely be from the Qingyun Dynasty.
After taking control of the Chiyue Dynasty, the Qingyun Dynasty would presumably have noticed the existence of the Daxia Dynasty.
By now, Lu Chen had a preliminary understanding of the entire universe and was well aware of the strong allure of a fledgling dynasty like the Daxia Dynasty for those ancient dynasties. He would not find it strange if a Great Emperor from the Qingyun Dynasty came to attack.
Lu Chen then glanced at Empress Tianhong and rose, saying, “I will not disturb your cultivation.”
He did not question how Empress Tianhong knew a Great Emperor was approaching; after all, being a Great Emperor herself, it was not unusual for her to have some special means to foresee future dangers.
The urgent matter was to ascertain whether the approaching Great Emperor was Emperor Shenwu or from the Qingyun Dynasty.
Lu Chen then sent a message to the Daxia Dynasty’s War Dragon Army, instructing them to dispatch troops to leave the Daxia Dynasty and investigate the surrounding star domains. If any powerful beings approached, they were to inform him immediately.
He also returned to the Imperial Study Room and summoned Pei Tianlu, who was about to go into seclusion.
“Elder Pei, come to the Imperial Study Room, I have some questions for you.”
Upon hearing Lu Chen’s voice, Pei Tianlu was puzzled. Why hadn’t Lu Chen asked him earlier, when he was right in front of him?
Pei Tianlu did not hesitate and proceeded to the Imperial Study Room. Upon entering, he observed Lu Chen’s expression and found him frowning, looking rather upset.
Pei Tianlu’s heart skipped a beat. Could that Empress have said something bad about him to Lu Chen?
Otherwise, why was Lu Chen perfectly fine earlier, but now looked so grim after Pei Tianlu had just left for a short while?
Pei Tianlu cautiously asked, “Your Majesty, what can I do for you?”
Lu Chen asked directly, “When you were sparring with Empress Tianhong, did you sense any Great Emperor approaching the Daxia Dynasty?”
This…
“Your Majesty, I did not sense any Great Emperor approaching the Daxia Dynasty.”
Pei Tianlu then asked curiously, “How did Your Majesty know a Great Emperor is nearing the Daxia Dynasty?”
Lu Chen did not answer Pei Tianlu’s question but instead asked, “How many Great Emperors does the Qingyun Dynasty have?”
Pei Tianlu replied, “To my knowledge, they have three Great Emperors.”
Lu Chen thought for a moment. If there were only three Great Emperors, that would not pose much of a threat.
They already had three Great Emperors on their side, and Empress Tianhong, who was skilled in warfare, was undoubtedly stronger than an average Great Emperor.
Additionally, he had a secondary Great Emperor body, so even if the three Great Emperors of the Qingyun Dynasty attacked simultaneously, they could handle it easily.
But if the one coming was not from the Qingyun Dynasty but Emperor Shenwu, that would be a different story.
It seemed he needed to confront Chu Yuqin directly and get information about Emperor Shenwu’s current status through her primary body, Chu Yunzhi.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen said, “Elder Pei, go and make preparations. A Great Emperor will soon be arriving at the Daxia Dynasty, but I cannot determine yet whether they are a friend or foe.”
Pei Tianlu was taken aback for a moment, then bowed and said, “Understood, Your Majesty, I will take my leave now.”
Pei Tianlu was curious about how Lu Chen knew a Great Emperor was approaching, but he did not pry further. He vaguely guessed it might have something to do with Empress Tianhong. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Whenever he thought of Empress Tianhong, Pei Tianlu felt a chill run through him. If a Great Emperor from the Qingyun Dynasty came, then the Qingyun Dynasty would be in big trouble.
The thought of Empress Tianhong chasing after and slashing the Qingyun Dynasty’s three Great Emperors made Pei Tianlu feel immensely satisfied.
Of course, it was all just conjecture for now, and no one could say for sure who the approaching Great Emperor was. Nevertheless, Pei Tianlu hoped it was someone from the Qingyun Dynasty.
After leaving the Imperial Study Room, Lu Chen’s primary body went to find Chu Yuqin.
At this moment, Chu Yuqin was still in the large bed in Wind Cloud Palace, lying limp and feeble, her breath like orchids, her gauzy robes half-draped, full of allure.
Seeing Lu Chen’s primary body approaching her again, Chu Yuqin’s delicate body trembled. Even though it was only her Quasi-Emperor secondary body, she was finding it difficult to cope. Let alone now that it was Lu Chen’s Great Emperor body approaching her.
Chu Yuqin hurriedly said, “Chen’er, I just remembered some matters I need to attend to. I can’t accompany you right now, go find Qingci and the others.”
That said, she prepared to get up and leave.
She realized that with Lu Chen having multiple bodies, he would never tire. If this continued, her mind would surely break down.
She felt a powerful hand grasp her wrist, and the next moment, she found herself pinned down on the soft couch.
Lu Chen’s deep, magnetic voice sounded in her ear, “My dear, do you dislike busy places? How about we change locations?”
Before he finished speaking, Lu Chen and Chu Yuqin disappeared in an instant, reappearing in Chu Yuqin’s bedchamber.
Finding herself alone with Lu Chen’s primary body, Chu Yuqin felt even more terrified. Earlier in the Wind Cloud Palace, she had her sisters to share her burden, allowing her some rest.
Now, being alone with Lu Chen’s primary body meant she would likely be in for a rough time.
Before Chu Yuqin could say a word, she was immediately overwhelmed with a sense of fullness and had no choice but to let Lu Chen have his way.
While doing the deed, Lu Chen whispered in her ear, “My dear, should I call you Yuqin or Yunzhi?”
Chu Yuqin’s mind went blank, and her body stiffened, but she quickly realized that Lu Chen had long detected the connection between her and her primary body.
Lu Chen had just been pretending not to know all this time.
What puzzled Chu Yuqin was why Lu Chen chose to bring it up now when he used to pretend not to know?
Did he feel invincible now that he had become a Great Emperor, unafraid of Emperor Shenwu?
Meanwhile…
In the Shenyue Dynasty’s Imperial Palace.
In the Empress’s bedchamber, Chu Yunzhi was lying weakly on a soft couch, a look of disbelief shining on her face.
She had not expected Lu Chen to discover her secret, and her heart was now filled with anxiety.
What would Lu Chen do next?
Having reached the Great Emperor Realm, Lu Chen had the strength to sever the link between her and Chu Yuqin at any moment.
She had caused Lu Chen so much trouble as part of her revenge; he must surely hate her now.
The thought of the man she loved hating her brought immense pain to Chu Yunzhi’s heart.
Chu Yuqin sighed, lying on the soft couch, turning slightly to look at Lu Chen beside her, “She is herself, and I am me. We just share a link through our Divine Sense, so she can feel everything I do.”
“Your Majesty, you must have long known about the relationship between us, so why bring it up now?”
