Chapter 1229: Chapter 919 Impending Crisis
After arriving in the Thousand Ren World, Lu Chen did not go straight to the Imperial Palace to indulge in pleasure; instead, he first went to inspect the War Dragon Army that the Daxia Dynasty had recently integrated.
Upon Lu Chen’s arrival at the barracks, two robust n clad in armor appeared before him, “Greetings, Heavenly Emperor!”
“Dispense with the formalities.”
Lu Chen sized up the two generals in front of him; one was a cultivator from the Skyfire Clan, and the other was Lu Chen’s brother-in-law, Xuanyuan Chen.
Since the resurgence of Spiritual Energy in the Tianchen World, Xuanyuan Chen’s strength had improved very quickly, even faster than the Cultivation State advancent of Lu Chen’s wives and concubines. He had already reached the Ninth Layer of the Yin-Yang Realm and was only one step away from breaking through to the Returning Ruin Realm.
Lu Chen even suspected that Xuanyuan Chen might also have a system. Judging from the Qi Fortune atop Xuanyuan Chen’s head, Xuanyuan Chen truly was not an ordinary person; his Qi Fortune was much denser than that of average individuals.
Xuanyuan Chen spoke at this ti: “Your Majesty, the disciples from those Sects are sowhat unruly, always coveting the Rune Weapons.”
Hearing this, Lu Chen chuckled lightly; he had anticipated that those powers intended to use this opportunity to get their hands on the Fire God Gun and Fire God Cannon. So from the very beginning, he had not allowed Xuanyuan Chen to bring those Rune Weapons to the Thousand Ren World.
Lu Chen then said, “Let them covet. Until they are fully committed, do not let them touch the Rune Weapons.”
Xuanyuan Chen replied, “As you command, Your Majesty.”
Lu Chen continued, “Let’s go, take to see how well your new forces are training.”
Xuanyuan Chen hastily stepped aside, “Please follow , Your Majesty.”
Xuanyuan Chen then led Lu Chen to the new recruits’ barracks, and as soon as they saw the Heavenly Emperor, the training of the new soldiers imdiately stopped, and they uniformly saluted Lu Chen.
“Greetings to the Heavenly Emperor!”
Lu Chen glanced over the soldiers present; the Loyalty of most of these soldiers was only between forty and fifty. While not considered low, that figure was not high either.
It was clear that those Sect disciples did not intend to stay in the Daxia Battle Dragon Army permanently, of course, Lu Chen did not expect all of them to stay.
The reason he had integrated disciples from various forces into the War Dragon Army was just to filter out those willing to beco Daxia Soldiers.
After so ti, Lu Chen would allow those who did not wish to join the War Dragon Army to leave.
However, by that ti, Lu Chen believed many cultivators would be reluctant to leave. Compared to those Sect powers, Daxia Battle Dragon Army soldiers received more Cultivation resources, and the War Dragon Army also had a more complete promotion system.
Staying in the War Dragon Army held more prospects than staying with those Sect powers; Lu Chen was convinced that in the end, these Sect disciples would know how to choose.
After making his rounds, Lu Chen then departed from the barracks. Once Lu Chen had left, those Sect disciples started whispering among themselves.
“So that was the Heavenly Emperor, such an oppressive aura!”
“It’s said that the Heavenly Emperor is only one step away from becoming a Saint. If not for the enemy invasion, maybe the Heavenly Emperor could beco a Saint after a decade or so of seclusion.”
“The Heavenly Emperor’s talent is terrifying indeed, I’ve heard he’s younger than all of us.”
…
Every ti they thought of the Heavenly Emperor’s talent, those sect disciples felt incredibly envious. Those disciples tasked with guarding the Thousand Ren World were almost all significantly older than Lu Chen.
After decades, or even a century of cultivation, their own Cultivation State was still not even half that of the Heavenly Emperor’s.
Listening to the private whispers of the soldiers, Xuanyuan Chen imdiately said out loud, “The Heavenly Emperor is not soone you can gossip about!”
Chastised by Xuanyuan Chen in this way, the soldiers went silent in an instant. Xuanyuan Chen continued, “If you sincerely follow His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, with the cultivation resources provided by the War Dragon Army, you could totally achieve His Majesty’s current Realm in the future.”
“Of course, the prerequisite is that you are truly loyal to His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor!”
“As for those who joined the War Dragon Army with ulterior motives, I must remind you to clearly understand what you’re doing.”
Warned by Xuanyuan Chen in this manner, so sect disciples began to have second thoughts. They thought that if the Heavenly Emperor’s terrifying talent leads to a breakthrough before the enemy invasion and he defeats the forces invading from the Chaotic Star Sea, wouldn’t the first thing to do be to purge traitors?
Lu Chen rely inspected the War Dragon Army barracks and already intimidated many sect disciples harboring ulterior motives.
Nevertheless, many still believed that no matter how high the Heavenly Emperor’s talent might be, it was impossible for him to break through to the Saint Realm in a short period of ti, and the fall of the Daxia Dynasty was just a matter of ti; they had no reason to fear the Heavenly Emperor.
Lu Chen didn’t care about what those sect disciples thought. At this stage, he was just consolidating those sect forces. He would neither let them co into contact with rune weapons nor would he allow them to directly participate in combat.
The reason he allowed them to stay in the Thousand Ren World was because he intended to let them witness how the Daxia Dynasty defeated the invaders.
Only by seeing the Daxia Dynasty’s strength for themselves would those sect disciples beco utterly devoted to the Daxia Dynasty.
Ti quickly passed, and another half month was gone. Canghai Sect saw off those powers that had co to attend the sect’s grand celebration, and Canghai Sect took this opportunity to blend their Immortal Boats in with the ones leaving.
In this way, even if other powers saw many Immortal Boats leaving Canghai Sect, they would just think that the people on these Immortal Boats had co to attend Canghai Sect’s grand celebration.
The Sect Master of Canghai Sect and a group of Supre Elders took advantage of this opportunity to head directly to the Chaotic Star Sea.
During Lu Chen’s ti in the Thousand Ren World, as usual, he spent most of his ti cultivating with his wives and concubines, and of course, there was now Mu Qinglan.
Mu Qinglan had completely abandoned the idea of helping Lu Chen recover his spirit. She was herself imrsed too deeply; how could she possibly persuade Lu Chen to recover his spirit?
Being uncheckedly treated by the man she deeply loved, Mu Qinglan found herself unable to stop, especially each ti she used the Mysterious Female Technique to lock Lu Chen down, it gave her the thrilling sensation of having conquered the Heavenly Emperor. She found herself increasingly enjoying this pleasure.
Thousand Ren World.
Imperial Palace.
Lu Chen was in Mu Qinglan’s room, assisting her with her cultivation, while Nangong Yuehua and Nangong Qingya were in the adjacent yard, seeking advice from Empress Tianhong on so cultivation issues.
The Nangong Sisters were very curious about the existence of Empress Tianhong. They had seen Empress Tianhong appear on the Feihong Immortal Boat before; this woman who was clearly an Artifact Spirit had now beco a real person.
Lu Chen had not told them how Empress Tianhong beca human, but he had told them that if they had any cultivation questions they didn’t understand, they could ask Empress Tianhong.
Although Empress Tianhong didn’t like being disturbed during her cultivation, later she thought that if she could repay so karma in this way, it was worth it. Hence, every ti the Nangong Sisters asked her about cultivation, she would reply earnestly.
After Nangong Yuehua finished asking Empress Tianhong her question, she gave a saluting gesture with her hands and said, “Thank you, senior, for enlightening !”
Empress Tianhong, with an expressionless face, said, “You have already been tainted with karma. No matter how you cultivate, until you have repaid this karma, you cannot leave that man.”
