Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 1400 - 1090: No One Can Snatch My Child’s Position as Saint Heir

After returning to the Heart Moon Hall, Yue Zhengze arranged an enormous mansion for Lu Chen, complete with thousands of servants, showing the great importance the Heart Moon Hall attached to Lu Chen.

Additionally, beneath Lu Chen’s mansion, there was a superior spirit vein, with dense spiritual energy.

In order to help Lu Chen break through to the Saint Realm as soon as possible, besides providing ample cultivation resources, Emperor Yanyue also offered Lu Chen numerous cultivation techniques.

Emperor Yanyue did not force any specific cultivation technique on Lu Chen. In her view, someone as gifted as Lu Chen was likely destined for greatness, considering his substantial Qi fortune; she felt no need to guide him.

If she were to forcefully interfere with Lu Chen’s cultivation path, it might backfire and hinder his progress.

She decided to let Lu Chen cultivate on his own and if he encountered any issues, he could consult her for guidance.

The news of a sixteen-year-old Returning Ruin Realm cultivator arriving at the Heart Moon Hall quickly spread throughout Yunhua Palace. Upon hearing of Lu Chen’s existence, the other Hall Masters flocked to Yunhua Palace to verify the authenticity of this claim.

When they saw Lu Chen, all were astonished and felt envious of Emperor Yanyue.

Emperor Yanyue had gone out to train with the Saintess and brought back such a highly talented disciple.

Almost all the Hall Masters believed that once the Palace Master emerged from seclusion, Lu Chen would likely be groomed as the Saint Heir.

Compared to the current Saintess, Lu Chen’s talent was undoubtedly superior.

This news also reached the ears of Xuanming Emperor, the Hall Master of Heavenly Mountain Hall.

Heavenly Mountain Hall.

A place of death.

In the valley, black mist swirled, and animal bones littered the ground.

At the center of the valley, a circular formation lay, with a figure exuding black qi at its core. ƒreewebɳovel.com

This was the Hall Master of Heavenly Mountain Hall, Xuanming Emperor.

At this moment, Liang Hong knelt at the edge of the formation, reporting the recent events to Xuanming Emperor, especially concerning Lu Chen.

Upon hearing about Lu Chen, Xuanming Emperor’s black qi began to surge violently, filling the valley with sounds of wails and howls.

Xuanming Emperor opened his blood-red eyes and coldly laughed, "Yanyue, your luck is quite remarkable, picking up such a talented disciple on an outing."

Seeing Xuanming Emperor’s anger, Liang Hong quickly said, "Hall Master, the Young Master has already broken through to the Saint Realm. No matter how talented Lu Chen is, he cannot compare to the Young Master."

"Perhaps Lu Chen just encountered some extraordinary opportunity, hence his rapid advancement."

Xuanming Emperor looked at Liang Hong with no emotion and said indifferently, "There is no need to explain to me. It matters not whether his talent is high; the position of Saint Heir will only be my son’s."

Upon hearing these words, Liang Hong was initially stunned but soon understood Xuanming Emperor’s intent. He cautiously said, "Hall Master, Lu Chen has been staying at the Heart Moon Hall. Without the Palace Master in seclusion, he is unlikely to leave."

Liang Hong was reminding Xuanming Emperor that dealing with Lu Chen would mean contending with Emperor Yanyue.

Although Emperor Yanyue’s main body was not at Yunhua Palace, once Xuanming Emperor and Emperor Yanyue’s secondary bodies engaged, the Palace Master in seclusion would undoubtedly sense it.

Should the Palace Master emerge, their plan to eliminate Lu Chen would be ruined, and the Palace Master might choose Lu Chen as the Saint Heir.

After Liang Hong’s reminder, Xuanming Emperor remained unmoved, saying, "You need not worry about this. I have my methods."

Seeing that Xuanming Emperor had said this, Liang Hong no longer spoke, "Yes, Hall Master."

Xuanming Emperor continued, "Enough, you may leave."

Liang Hong then bowed and left the deathly valley.

After Liang Hong left, Xuanming Emperor looked in the direction of the Heart Moon Hall and muttered to himself, "No one can take the position of Saint Heir from my son."

As he spoke, a smile appeared on Xuanming Emperor’s face, and the wandering souls in the valley grew even more restless, filling the valley with wails and howls once again.

As Liang Hong left the valley, he couldn’t help but tremble at the sounds behind him.

He couldn’t understand why Xuanming Emperor didn’t seem at all anxious. Clearly, Xuanming Emperor had been displeased when the Palace Master selected Lie Hongyun as the Saintess, and now, his son’s position as Saint Heir was about to be usurped, yet he showed no panic.

At this moment.

At a luxurious mansion in Heavenly Mountain Hall.

A young man in white stood in a pavilion, listening to a disciple’s report outside the pavilion.

The young man had a gloomy expression and remained silent as the disciple reported.

After a while, the young man spoke, "A sixteen-year-old Returning Ruin Realm, interesting."

Su Hongxuan had already heard from Liang Hong about a sixteen-year-old Returning Ruin Realm cultivator at the Heart Moon Hall, but Su Hongxuan initially didn’t believe it.

He thought it was more likely that this cultivator was a secondary body of a Quasi-Emperor, who had come to Yunhua Palace with some hidden agenda.

However, over time, numerous Hall Masters had gone to Yunhua Palace to verify it, and it turned out that Lu Chen was indeed only sixteen years old, with a complete Divine Soul, not a secondary body.

The Hall Masters of Yunhua Palace were Great Emperors. If one Great Emperor like Emperor Yanyue could make a mistake, it would be excusable. But with so many Great Emperors affirming that Lu Chen wasn’t a secondary body, it had to be true.

This realization made Su Hongxuan feel threatened. It had been difficult for his father to persuade the Palace Master to agree to have an additional Saint Heir at Yunhua Palace, and now, a highly talented individual emerged, essentially dashing any hopes of him securing the Saint Heir position.

No, Lu Chen cannot be allowed to live.

He had to be dealt with before the Palace Master emerged from seclusion.

However, with Lu Chen constantly remaining at the Heart Moon Hall, it was difficult to make a move…

Fortunately, the Palace Master had not been in seclusion for long. Given the Palace Master’s usual seclusion period, it would likely be a century before he emerged, providing ample time to deal with Lu Chen.

As Su Hongxuan pondered how to eliminate Lu Chen, Lu Chen was also contemplating how to leave the Heart Moon Hall and cause trouble at Heavenly Mountain Hall.

In a silent bamboo forest, Lu Chen sat cross-legged on a cushion, with two Saint Realm maidservants nearby.

These two maidservants were specifically arranged by Emperor Yanyue to protect him, but for Lu Chen, they were a significant nuisance.

If he wanted to leave the Heart Moon Hall, these two maidservants would undoubtedly try to stop him.

Lu Chen mused that the Hall Master of Heavenly Mountain Hall must already know of his existence; why hadn’t they sent anyone to trouble him yet?

Lu Chen was worried that if too much time passed, the Life-saving Empress would emerge from seclusion and discover that his body was a secondary body.

During his time at Yunhua Palace, Lu Chen had learned quite a bit about the Life-saving Empress. It was rumored that she also followed the Life Dao.

Although the Life-saving Empress’s Life Dao was different from his, they were essentially pursuing the same path, and there would inevitably be similarities.

While other Great Emperors might not notice, the Life-saving Empress could very likely detect something unusual about his body.
