Jinyuan Apartnt.
The two reunited after a long ti, and Ding Yumian had already left to avoid them.
Lu Jun quietly listened to her experiences and also spoke of what he had witnessed in the Mariana Trench.
After talking for quite a while, Lu i's exquisite, flawless jade-like face flushed slightly, revealing a mature and alluring charm. She seed captivated by the thrilling journey, her emotions rising and falling.
He couldn't help but be drawn in. Looking again at Lu i's tall and voluptuous figure, her chest rising like peaks, he felt a stirring desire—after all, it had been quite so ti since they had been intimate.
Thus, Lu Jun stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Lu i's slender and supple waist, as if holding warm jade, and leaned in to kiss her beautiful cheek.
In an instant, Lu i froze, her face burning red. She glared at him and lightly snorted, "Yumian just left, and you're already like this. How can you face her?"
As she spoke, she pushed against his chest, trying to move him away.
Unknowingly, this only added a hint of coy resistance.
With Lu Jun's persistence, he finally got his way.
Several hours later, Lu i lay on the bed, her body half-covered. With one jade-like hand gently pushing Lu Jun, she said lazily with endless charm, "You should be more thoughtful. We're about to head to the Ancient Capital, and who knows when we'll et again. Spend more ti with Yumian."
After being urged several tis by Lu i, Lu Jun had no choice but to leave the room. When he walked into the first-floor living room, he saw a slender fla-like magical figure standing quietly.
Jiang Feng had also arrived. Yan Shi, worried that her disciple might encounter danger outside, had sent her daughter along to accompany Lu i and assist Lu Jun as repaynt.
At this mont, the Fla Witch's face was shrouded in reddish-brown flas, making her expression unreadable.
But from the fluctuations of the flas around her, Lu Jun could tell she was uneasy.
He didn't mind and was about to go look for Ding Yumian, intending to experience the stimulation of multiple soul fraworks, when suddenly the divine soul frawork in his forehead stirred. Sensing the fluctuations around him, he frowned and looked at a mirror hanging on the wall, saying coldly, "Nine Nether Empress, aren't you coming out yet?!"
Buzz—Buzz—Buzz!
The mirror shifted unpredictably, reflecting the image of a graceful woman in a white dress. Her temperant was elegant and serene, her appearance beautiful.
She let out a light laugh and said, "I didn't want to disturb you while you were enjoying yourself."
Lu Jun's expression remained calm. In the past, when his cultivation was insufficient, he might have felt uneasy facing a great demon like Nine Nether Empress.
But tis had changed. Now, with four elents at Super Tier nearing completion, several Heavenly Seeds and techniques, and overall combat power surpassing even Supre Monarchs when entering a divine state, he no longer feared a re Great Monarch like Nine Nether Empress. His confidence was solid.
His thoughts lightly swept over Nine Nether Empress, and he frowned slightly. "You're injured? What happened?!"
Hearing this, Nine Nether Empress's projection in the mirror was surprised. Her beautiful eyes shimred as she examined Lu Jun up and down, smiling charmingly. "It seems the rumors among humans are true—you participated in a battle to slaughter an Emperor. In just a few years, you've changed greatly."
Even she had to sigh in admiration. Since their parting in the Ancient Capital and the beginning of the World College Tournant until now, Lu Jun had risen from high-tier strength to being known as the strongest below Forbidden Spell, it was truly astonishing.
Over the past thousand years, Nine Nether Empress had seen many geniuses, but none compared to Lu Jun. She unconsciously restrained her previous inscrutable deanor and adopted a more serious attitude.
Nine Nether Empress slowly said, "If you have this level of strength, then I'm relieved."
Lu Jun frowned slightly. Thinking of Nine Nether Empress's injuries, he couldn't help but ask, "Did sothing happen in the Ancient Capital?"
"Yes." Nine Nether Empress nodded and said softly, "The Undead Empire of the Ancient Capital has fallen into great chaos—internal and external troubles, with a risk of losing control."
Nine Nether Empress continued, "You know that a few years ago, you transford into an Undead Emperor and ordered the undead of the Ancient Capital to lie dormant, forbidding them from harming humans in the slightest. All eight of us Undead Lords faithfully obeyed."
"But as ti passed, the bloodthirsty nature of the undead beca difficult to suppress. Many undead within the Ancient Capital's Undead Empire grew dissatisfied with the orders of the Eight Undead Lords, and even so of the Lords began to resist fiercely."
"This is not solely the fault of the undead. Humans share part of the bla as well. So ill-intentioned individuals took advantage of the fact that the undead would not attack, recklessly robbing tombs, stealing, venturing deep into forbidden zones to excavate heavenly treasures, and encroaching on their territory."
Hearing this, Lu Jun fell into thought. He understood clearly that the Ancient Capital and the undead had always coexisted in a delicate balance. The undead's bloodthirst was their nature; occasionally devouring a portion of life in the Ancient Capital instead helped stabilize this forbidden empire. Trying to suppress one side too much would only backfire.
Calculating the ti, it was already approaching the limit.
In the original tiline, it was after Leng Jue summoned the Pyramid of Khufu that the suppressed undead began to stir.
Thus, the Ancient King Zhan Kong personally took action, repelled Khufu, and formulated a strategy to invade the Egyptian Undead Empire, in order to appease his increasingly restless undead subordinates.
Lu Jun had dealt with Leng Jue ahead of ti, yet the situation had not improved much—in fact, it had worsened.
Just as the Nine Nether Empress had said, even though he had transford into an Undead Emperor, he could not remain stationed in the Ancient Capital at all tis. Not to ntion the wandering Undead Monarchs, even the core Eight Great Undead Monarchs had begun to waver.
"If it were just the wandering monarchs, we could still suppress them."
The Nine Nether Empress said gravely, "The more troubleso issue is that recently, Khufu's Egyptian Empire used the Triangular Chaos Mirror to temporarily open a void passage, crossing the Kunlun Plateau, and unexpectedly dispatched troops on a long-distance expedition."
"Although Khufu himself could not pass through due to his overwhelming strength, his generals like the Sphinx have already invaded. We had no choice but to confront them, which is why I've suffered considerable injuries."
Lu Jun's brows knitted tightly. He hadn't expected the butterfly effect he caused to be this significant.
Originally, the Ancient King would have severely injured Khufu, forcing him into slumber for several years. Only after Zhan Kong fell in the Holy City would the Pyramid of Khufu seize the opportunity, taking advantage of the Sea Demon Empire's invasion to attack the Evil Abyss.
But now Khufu had not fallen into slumber and was at the peak of his power. Naturally, he had begun to pursue the ambition of unifying the Underworld and ascending as the ruler of death.
"Trouble after trouble—there's no ti to catch one's breath."
Lu Jun felt a heavy weight in his heart. He had originally planned to slay the Evil Dragon Emperor to intimidate the Pacific Empire and secure one or two years of respite. Yet now, he was being told that the threat of Emperor Khufu was imminent?!
The Ancient Capital was the foundation he had chosen, and it was also a battleground for the path of the Underworld King, there was no room for retreat.
Fortunately, after repeatedly questioning the Nine Nether Empress, there was so good news. The dusa lineage had not participated, seemingly restrained by so issue. The Supre Monarch, the Mountain Corpse remained unhard and was holding the situation together alone.
"That's right. A year ago, during the great battle in Africa, I severely injured the Harpy dusa, forcing Apas and Euryael to cooperate in resisting their elder sister."
Lu Jun let out a breath of relief. A move he had made unintentionally in the past had now taken effect. Then his thoughts turned further, the corpse of the Mother of dusa with his current strength, it seed he could make a move on it.
Without the Evil Dragon Emperor, a dusa Emperor would also suffice and it even contained the supre mysteries of spiritual curses.
