Chapter 1764: Chapter 1454: Mysterious Moon Palace in Crisis

Lu Chen quickly regained his composure, then bowed to Immortal Venerable Yun Meng and said, “Disciple will remember the Palace Master’s teachings.”

Immortal Venerable Yun Meng glanced at Lu Chen again, sighing inwardly, truly a person of great destiny, impossible to kill.

Not only did he survive after entering the Chaotic Sea, but she had received intelligence years ago stating he had self-destructed and died, yet after just a few years, here he was in the Mysterious Moon Palace.

If she hadn’t noticed the Life is Like a Dream mark on Lu Chen, she probably wouldn’t have recognized him either.

After dual cultivating with a woman who had practiced Life is Like a Dream, a mark of Life is Like a Dream would appear deep in the soul, which is difficult to detect unless you’re also practiced in Life is Like a Dream.

Back then, Yun Qingshu practiced Life is Like a Dream, and Yun Qingshu’s only man was Lu Chen. Coupled with Lu Chen’s name being a reverse of Chen Lu, Immortal Venerable Yun Meng instantly guessed Lu Chen’s identity.

Originally, Lu Chen had eloped with their Immortal Sect’s Saintess, disrupting their plans. By logic, they should have eliminated Lu Chen, but considering the immense Qi Fortune surrounding him, even if she intervened, it might not truly kill him.

Moreover, the most crucial point is that if Lu Chen joins Mysterious Moon Palace, it will gradually enhance the Immortal Sect’s Qi Fortune, which is also beneficial to Mysterious Moon Palace.

And Lu Chen’s talent is unquestionable; with his cultivation talent, it might not take long for Mysterious Moon Palace to gain another Immortal Venerate.

As for whether Lu Chen will break through to become an Immortal Emperor, Immortal Venerable Yun Meng is not worried at all. Mysterious Moon Palace is unlike other Immortal Sects, they have an Immortal Emperor. Back when those Immortal Sects besieged Lu Chen, fearing he rising to become an Immortal Emperor, but Mysterious Moon Palace never got involved because they had enough confidence in Immortal Emperor Youlan.

In the eyes of the elders of Mysterious Moon Palace, as long as Immortal Emperor Youlan could live a second life, what does it matter even if the Tianyan Immortal Domain gains another Immortal Emperor.

What’s more, Lu Chen taking a long time to break through to Immortal Emperor is expected; before he becomes an Immortal Emperor, their Immortal Emperor Youlan would likely have already lived a second life and led Mysterious Moon Palace to dominate the entire Tianyan Immortal Domain.

Therefore, Lu Chen is not a threat to Mysterious Moon Palace at all, but Xu Jingshu’s child is Lu Chen’s, if Lu Chen learns that his child is the Seizing Body of Immortal Emperor Youlan, it could lead him to betray Mysterious Moon Palace.

However, this is not a major issue. Once Xu Jingshu gives birth, they will swap the child with a newborn and use a special bloodline technique to alter the bloodline of the fake Saintess, so when Lu Chen uses bloodline sense, he won’t detect anything.

In this way, the fake Saintess is exposed, and if someone really wants to attack the Saintess, it is the fake Saintess who dies, whereas the true Saintess can grow safely until she becomes the body for Immortal Emperor Youlan’s Seizing.

Immortal Venerable Yun Meng did not say much more to Lu Chen. Since his identity was confirmed, from now on, they only needed to keep a close watch on him, preventing him from causing trouble in Mysterious Moon Palace.

The next moment, Immortal Venerable Yun Meng turned into starlight and disappeared from the great hall.

After Immortal Venerable Yun Meng left, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable looked at Lu Chen with skepticism, asking, “Have you done anything in the past that harmed Mysterious Moon Palace’s interests?”

Lu Chen retorted, “Made the one who was supposed to be the Saintess conceive the disciple’s child, does this count?”

Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable asked indifferently, “Apart from that one thing.”

Lu Chen said, “Nothing else.”

Even Immortal Venerable Yun Meng did not reveal his identity directly in front of Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable, so naturally, he could not tell Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable what he had done, especially since Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable’s direct disciples had connections with him.

Yun Qingshu and Xu Jingshu were already troubled by him, and Yun Yudie was about to be. If Yun Yudie was also troubled by him and this matter reached the ears of Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable, who knows how she would react.

Although Lu Chen said nothing else, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable still had doubts. She always felt that Lu Chen and Immortal Venerable Yun Meng were hiding something from her, but since Immortal Venerable Yun Meng, this Palace Master, said nothing, it shouldn’t be a major issue, so Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable did not pursue further.

Then Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable said, “You can go back to cultivate.”

Lu Chen then bowed to Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable and said, “Disciple takes leave!”

With those words, Lu Chen turned and left the Heavenly Language Hall.

…

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed again.

In this half year, the Chiyan Sect joined the crusade against the Mysterious Moon Palace army, and without Chiyan Sect’s obstruction, the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty’s army quickly reached Sky Wolf City.

Meanwhile, the Evil Immortals from Blood Eagle Hall, previously subdued, became active again in Mysterious Moon Palace territory, making the disciples and elders of Mysterious Moon Palace extremely busy.

After barely exterminating the Evil Immortals causing trouble in one place, a large number of Evil Immortals appeared in another place. When these were eliminated, the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty’s army and Chiyan Sect’s forces launched their attacks.

Under the attack of these three forces, Mysterious Moon Palace was powerless to resist, forced to continuously retreat, and the subsidiary forces of Mysterious Moon Palace, seeing the palace’s decline, joined the other three forces, making Mysterious Moon Palace’s situation even more precarious.

At this moment.

Bihai Immortal City, Chen Mansion.

With starry eyes and a dazed expression, Ye Chuyao leaned weakly against Lu Chen’s broad chest, whispering, “Junior Brother, enough… enough…”

Though she stayed in the Chen Mansion for the past half year, she was still aware of external happenings, knowing that the Mysterious Moon Palace was now at a crisis of life and death.

As a direct disciple of the Hall Master, if she continued indulgence here, and the disciples of Mysterious Moon Palace learned of it, it would surely dampen their morale.

Although her strength continuously improved through cultivation with Lu Chen, and it wasn’t purely indulgence, as the Hall Master’s direct disciple, she should appear on the front lines instead of staying in the rear.

With their honored master absent, she, as a direct disciple, needed to go to the front lines to boost morale.

She originally intended to leave half a year ago, but this troublemaker kept entangling her. She was left without any strength and could only cultivate with him.

Lu Chen also realized the battlefront would soon reach Bihai Immortal City, so he stopped tangling with Ye Chuyao. He then asked, “Senior Sister, do you want to go to the front lines?”

Ye Chuyao replied, “Yes, as the Hall Master’s direct disciple, I shouldn’t remain in the rear no matter what.”

Lu Chen said, “Then I’ll go with Senior Sister.”

Ye Chuyao immediately responded, “No!”

“Your current strength hasn’t recovered, and it’s pointless to go to the front lines.”

To her, Lu Chen was at the Mortal Immortal Realm, and going to the front lines was a waste. What if he was targeted again and faced the same situation as before?

Last time, Lu Chen got lucky and survived, but not every time would he have such luck.

Seeing Ye Chuyao’s firm stance, Lu Chen seemingly said, “Alright then, Senior Sister, take care of yourself.”

Ye Chuyao then rose, with a wave of her hand, a set of blue robes adorned her body. She glanced at Lu Chen on the bed, “You rest well, I’ll return to Mysterious Moon Palace first.”

With those words, Ye Chuyao promptly left Bihai Immortal City and returned to Mysterious Moon Palace.
