Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife Chapter 755 The Two Powerful Forces1

Lu Chen brought Xia Tianyuan and Mu Hongguang to the study and, through them, gained an understanding of the current situations of the Sunset Sword Sect and Tai Chu Divine Hall, as well as a rough idea of how Sunset Island and Tai Chu Island were developing at present.

After learning about the matters related to the Sunset Sword Sect and Tai Chu Divine Hall, Lu Chen thought of another question.

He glanced at Xia Tianyuan and Mu Hongguang, then said to Sect Master Xia, "Sect Master Xia, you said that you have been waiting in this world for a thousand years for . I am quite curious, why would you say such a thing?"

Before now, Lu Chen had never dug deep into the backgrounds of those summoned by the system, feeling that the system would prevent him from inquiring into certain matters, but this ti, he couldn't hold back his curiosity any longer, and he didn't care whether the system would stop him or not.

Hearing Lu Chen's question, Xia Tianyuan replied, "Replying to the young master, according to our sect's archives, the ancestors of our Sunset Sword Sect and Tai Chu Divine Hall were not natives of this world. After arriving here, they were already gravely injured.

Knowing that you, young master, will definitely co to this world, they left behind docunts instructing us to await your arrival—and thus, over a thousand years have passed."

Surprised by this response, Lu Chen gave a mont's pause, realizing why the system did not prevent him from asking these questions—the system's arrangents were indeed flawless.

The ancestors of the Tai Chu Divine Hall and Sunset Sword Sect were gone, so no matter how much he inquired, he wouldn't be able to learn much else.

Lu Chen decided not to waste any more ti on this matter, focusing instead on the most important task at hand—seizing the throne of Great Sum.

With this in mind, Lu Chen said to Sect Master Xia and Hall Master Mu, "Sect Master Xia, Hall Master Mu, your timing couldn't be better. I am planning to attack the Capital city and seize the throne of Great Sum."

"With the help of both of you, I believe this endeavor will go very smoothly."

Xia Tianyuan imdiately said, "This is our duty."

At that mont, Mu Hongguang interjected, "Young Master, on our way here, we encountered the presence of the Demon Sect within the territory of Great Sum."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat, and then he asked, "You live in the Southeast Sea year-round, so you are aware of the existence of the Demon Sect?"

"Yes," Xia Tianyuan replied, "So mbers of the Demon Sect have co to both Tai Chu Island and Sunset Island to cause trouble, but they were eventually driven off by us."

Lu Chen then asked, "Do you know of the Taiyin Divine Sect?"

Upon hearing this question, Xia Tianyuan and Mu Hongguang exchanged a glance, and then Mu Hongguang said, "Yes, the Taiyin Divine Sect has attacked Tai Chu Island and Sunset Island multiple tis, but five hundred years ago, the two major powers of our seas united, killing many of the Taiyin Divine Sect's experts, even their sect hierarch perished at our hands."

Responding evenly, Lu Chen said, "Recently, the Taiyin Divine Sect has beco active again, and their sect hierarch has been resurrected."

This...

Mu Hongguang and Xia Tianyuan were montarily stunned, clearly not having expected that the sect hierarch of the Taiyin Divine Sect could revive.

After regaining their composure, Xia Tianyuan and Mu Hongguang simultaneously assured, "Please rest assured, young master. We will certainly find a way to exterminate the Taiyin Divine Sect to alleviate your concerns."

Lu Chen nodded lightly and continued to inquire, "How many Grandmasters have you brought with you to Great Sum this ti?"

Mu Hongguang was the first to answer, "Tai Chu Divine Hall has brought two Unity Realm Elders and ten Grandmasters to Great Sum this ti."

After Mu Hongguang finished speaking, Sect Master Xia followed, "The Sunset Sword Sect has brought one Unity Realm Elder and thirteen Grandmasters to Great Sum this ti."

Hearing their replies, Lu Chen was montarily taken aback.

When the system had initially awarded enhancents to the Sunset Sword Sect and Tai Chu Divine Hall, it had described the number of Grandmasters in these two forces as "several Grandmasters." At that ti, Lu Chen had not grasped just how many Grandmasters these two forces truly had; he had assud that "several" ant just a few, at most not more than ten.

He had thought since the system had already rewarded him with Celestials and Pseudo Celestials, the Grandmasters seed relatively insignificant, so that's why the system would overlook the number of Grandmasters. Now it seed he had completely misunderstood.

The fact that the Tai Chu Divine Hall and Sunset Sword Sect brought out so many Grandmasters clearly shows that the "several Grandmasters" ntioned by the system really are "several."

Experience tales at empire

After Lu Chen ca back to his senses, he asked curiously, "How many Grandmasters does each of your forces have?"

Mu Hongguang was the first to reply, "Responding to the young master, when I left the Tai Chu Divine Hall, there were a total of fifty Grandmasters."

Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat, and his gaze imdiately shifted to Xia Tianyuan, who said, "The Sunset Sword Sect has a total of seventy-five Grandmasters."

...

Lu Chen fell into a long silence.

The system had said from the beginning that as his number of children increased, the rewards he would receive after having more offspring could be even more substantial, but he never expected to receive such massive forces this ti.

The total number of Grandmasters the great dynasties openly claim to have probably isn't even as many as just one force from the Tai Chu Divine Hall, right?

Lu Chen asked, puzzled, "Why do your two forces have so many Grandmasters?"

Upon hearing this question, Mu Hongguang and Xia Tianyuan exchanged glances, clearly not expecting Lu Chen to ask this.

Xia Tianyuan then asked with confusion, "Why does the young master ask this?"

Lu Chen stated plainly, "Presently, the sum of the openly acknowledged Grandmasters from all the great dynasties is probably not as many as the Grandmasters from the Tai Chu Divine Hall."

This…

Xia Tianyuan and Mu Hongguang then understood why Lu Chen would ask such a question.

Xia Tianyuan continued, "Young master, our two forces have always been situated on Sunset Island and Tai Chu Island, and we don't particularly understand the several great dynasties. We have been developing peacefully for a thousand years, which naturally resulted in us having so many Grandmasters."

"Moreover, we lost quite a few Grandmasters when we were resisting the invasion of the Taiyin Divine Sect."

Lu Chen fell into thought once again.

Either the hidden number of Grandmasters that the great dynasties have is greater than he imagined, or sothing must have happened to cause a sharp decline in the number of Grandmasters.

Speaking of which, Lu Chen suddenly rembered sothing he had heard about before: a Celestial from the Mysterious Moon Palace once went on a killing spree among the Grandmasters of the great dynasties, and the surviving Grandmasters were so scared that they went into hiding.

Could this be the reason for the scarcity of Grandmasters in the great dynasties?

With this thought, Lu Chen didn't dwell on the issue any further and said, "Alright, I'll accompany you to et the disciples of the Tai Chu Divine Hall and the Sunset Sword Sect!"

Xia Tianyuan and Mu Hongguang said in unison, "Yes, young master."

Under the guidance of Mu Hongguang and Xia Tianyuan, Lu Chen t those people they had brought from the Tai Chu Divine Hall and the Sunset Sword Sect.

When Lu Chen saw these people, he was once again shocked; among those that ca from the Sunset Sword Sect and the Tai Chu Divine Hall, almost everyone was a Grandmaster. There were very few who were Half-step Grandmasters, and none below the Ninth Grade.

Lu Chen wondered if with this force, uniting the great dynasties might not even require firearms.
