Ye Chuyao was most worried about Wu Junwanâs safety. Although she had read from Lu Chenâs memory that Wu Junwan was currently safe, no one could predict if one day Chaos Qi would rush into the area where the Great Sum Empire was located.
Lu Chen replied, "Once I break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, Iâll be able to take them away from the Chaotic Sea."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuyao fell into silence. She didnât truly know Lu Chenâs current cultivation state, but she guessed that his state and power might have declined.
Although Lu Chen had bravely stepped up during the crisis at the Mysterious Moon Palace last time, resisting the attack of three Evil Immortal Kings, Ye Chuyao speculated that Lu Chen probably burned his Divine Soul to withstand their attack.
Who knew how many years it would take for Lu Chen to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm?
Yet, speaking of this, it somewhat clung to her hope of seeing Wu Junwan again.
After speaking about Wu Junwan, Ye Chuyao fell silent again, not knowing what to say.
Seeing Ye Chuyao silent, Lu Chen continued to tempt her by whispering in her ear, "Since weâre already like this, why donât you completely be with me, dear sister?"
Ye Chuyao snapped back to reality, responding indifferently, "Honored Master wonât agree."
Lu Chen replied with a smile, "She has already agreed."
Lu Chenâs words startled Ye Chuyao for a moment.
Agreed?
How could her Honored Master possibly agree to the two of them being together?
Ye Chuyao looked up at Lu Chen before her, "Are you telling the truth?"
Lu Chen answered, "Of course, itâs true."
Ye Chuyao fell silent again. Even her Honored Master agreed. Was she really going to promise Lu Chen, to be Lu Chenâs woman?
If even she became Lu Chenâs woman, then she wouldnât be any different from Wu Junwan back then. Realizing this, Ye Chuyaoâs heart grew exceedingly complicated.
Seeing Ye Chuyao hesitating to make a decision, Lu Chen continued, "Actually, whether you agree or not, you can only be my woman in the future."
Hearing Lu Chenâs domineering words, Ye Chuyaoâs jade hand on the stone platform clenched into a fist.
After a while, she exhaled deeply. Now that she and Lu Chen had already reached such a point, it was useless even if she didnât want to.
Oh well, even Wu Junwan had become his woman; thereâs no big deal in becoming his woman myself, and when Wu Junwan returns to the Tianyan Immortal Domain in the future, we can still be together.
Thinking of this, Ye Chuyao said, "I... can promise you..."
Seeing Ye Chuyao agreeing, Lu Chen rejoiced internally. In this way, the entire Mysterious Moon Palace would be under his control in the future.
Yun Yudie was the Hall Master, Ling Yin Immortal King was also a Hall Master, and Ye Chuyao was probably the Young Hall Master. He was the man of these three, thus the Mysterious Moon Palace would indirectly be his influence.
After Ye Chuyao finished speaking, she collapsed, as if all the strength in her body had been exhausted. It indeed required enormous courage for her, considering she had always seen Lu Chen as an enemy in the past, yet now, the enemy had become her man.
Thinking that after becoming Lu Chenâs woman, he would do those kinds of things to her without restraint, Ye Chuyao felt utterly powerless.
Lu Chen softly said in Ye Chuyaoâs ear, "From today onwards, dear sister, you will be my couple."
Saying this, Lu Chen gently breathed into Ye Chuyaoâs ear before continuing, "Yao Yao, shall we continue?"
Ye Chuyao felt somewhat helpless hearing Lu Chenâs words. She couldnât comprehend how this scoundrel could always maintain that state.
But she had no choice; during cultivation, she had no strength to resist, and even if she had the strength, her heart didnât even rise with resistance. She felt as if she had already completely fallen.
Meanwhile.
In a certain place in the Barbaric area, Thunder Serpent Sect.
In the lightning-surrounded grand hall, sat a white-haired Immortal King with the appearance of a middle-aged man, arcs of electricity dancing all over his body. He glanced around at the people in the grand hall, turning the elders in the hall as silent as cicadas in winter. No one dared speak.
They were well aware that the Thunder Serpent Immortal King was very angry at this moment.
Originally, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King planned to conclude his seclusion and then create an Immortal Sect. Now, their sect was still on the ground, so they could only be considered an ordinary sect. Only by creating a Floating Island could it be considered an Immortal Sect.
However, creating a Floating Island requires consuming vast amounts of immortal power, so the Thunder Serpent Immortal King thought to wait until he was stronger before establishing the Immortal Sect.
What he didnât expect was that upon emerging from seclusion, the elders of Thunder Serpent Sect informed him that the empty space they intended to use for the Immortal Sect had already been occupied by an Immortal Sect named Mysterious Moon Palace.
Most importantly, the Mysterious Moon Palace actually had two Immortal Kings.
Thunder Serpent Sect only had one Immortal King, and because of its location in the Barbaric area, the number of Immortal Monarchs in Thunder Serpent Sect wasnât very high. If Thunder Serpent Sect went to war with Mysterious Moon Palace for that empty space, Thunder Serpent Sect certainly wouldnât benefit.
Thinking of this made the Thunder Serpent Immortal King extremely furiousâwhere did this Mysterious Moon Palace come from?
In the Barbaric area, only the airspace near the Sunset Mountain Range was rich in Immortal Aura, suitable for creating an Immortal Sect, and in this vicinity, only this place hadnât been taken over by an Immortal Sect.
Due to the sparse Immortal Aura in the Barbaric area, the area controlled by Immortal Sects here had to be larger than in the other domains.
If Thunder Serpent Sect were to create an Immortal Sect next to Mysterious Moon Palace, they might invade the territory of other Immortal Sects, thus triggering war.
Could it be just letting it go like this?
Just then, an elder entered the grand hall, addressing the Thunder Serpent Immortal King, "Sect Master, lately people from Mysterious Moon Palace have been frequently invading our controlled cities."
At this point, the elder took out a jade scroll, and in the next moment, the information from the jade scroll appeared in the grand hall.
Seeing the rows of characters formed by immortal power in the grand hall, the Thunder Serpent Immortal Kingâs inner rage burned even more fiercely, "Itâs truly outrageous!!!"
Mysterious Moon Palace occupied the empty space they intended for the Immortal Sect, and now they even dare attempt to occupy the cities they control.
In such a sparsely inhabited area as the Barbaric region, each city is extremely important to them. If Thunder Serpent Sectâs cities were extensively occupied, the sectâs Qi Fortune would also significantly decline.
The Thunder Serpent Immortal King coldly said, "What exactly is Mysterious Moon Palace trying to do! Do they want to go to war with Thunder Serpent Sect?"
Typically, when external forces expand their territory, they go through various wars. Thunder Serpent Sect, as a local sect, naturally wouldnât just let it go when core interests are touched.
The Thunder Serpent Immortal King immediately instructed an Immortal Monarch in the grand hall, "Dongliang, take people and go to Mysterious Moon Palace. Ask exactly what Mysterious Moon Palace intends to do. If they want to fight, we will accompany them all the way!"
Dongliang Immortal Monarch replied, "Yes, Sect Master."
The Thunder Serpent Immortal King continued, "Also, if people from Mysterious Moon Palace dare to invade Thunder Serpent Sectâs land again, show no mercyâkill directly!"
