Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

Xuan Tian truly could not comprehend the actions of Xuan Qingyun, but regardless of what Xuan Qingyun was doing, Xuan Qingyun and his position were always opposed, so Xuan Tian would remain vigilant against her.

Xuan Tian felt that continuing like this was not a solution; he must swiftly destroy the Immortal Artifact in Lu Chen's hands.

The best way now was to leverage the power of the Divine Martial Emperor. He could first help the Divine Martial Emperor become stronger, and then attempt to use the Divine Martial Emperor against Lu Chen.

Although this universe was the world within Xuan Tian's body, he himself could not completely control what happened inside. Take the Immortal Artifact, for example; he could only find a way to expel it, unable to destroy it.

This was like a mortal having a stone in their body, where they can only use external force to break the stone, unable to rely on their own strength to expel it.

After making up his mind, Xuan Tian took out a spear and said to Emperor Tengyun, "Give this spear to the Divine Martial Emperor, and say that this seat congratulates him on his resurrection. This spear is refined from the blood and Divine Soul of countless people, making it very suitable for him."

The moment the spear in Xuan Tian's hand was brought out, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire Starry Sky Pavilion, causing Emperor Tengyun and the gate-guarding Great Emperor to be suffocated by the pressure.

The Holy Demon Spear in Xuan Tian's hand exuded a blood-red Evil Qi, and the intense Evil Qi was chilling just to look at.

The pressure emitted by the Holy Demon Spear made Emperor Tengyun unable to approach, let alone step forward to catch it. At this time, Xuan Tian realized, waved his hand, and a talisman paper appeared on the Holy Demon Spear.

In an instant, the pressure of the Holy Demon Spear dissipated, allowing Emperor Tengyun to finally breathe a sigh of relief. Xuan Tian waved his hand, and the Holy Demon Spear flew into Emperor Tengyun's hand proactively.

Emperor Tengyun immediately caught the Holy Demon Spear, "I will now proceed to the Shenyue Dynasty."

Emperor Tengyun had just escaped from the Shenyue Dynasty and did not want to go back at this time. However, this was Xuan Tian's command, so he could only brace himself to go to the Shenyue Dynasty once again.

He only hoped that once the Divine Martial Emperor saw this spear, some of the anger in his heart would be abated.

...

Tianchen World.

In Lie Hongyun's bedchamber, the sound of sobbing still echoed. Ever since Lie Hongyun made contact with Lu Chen's body, she was tightly bound by the marriage line and could only let things take their course chaotically.

After an unknown period, Lu Chen finally ceased his recklessness and glanced at the interface of the system.

[Congratulations to the host for gaining a concubine, reward: Holy Tier Sword Technique Blood Soul Slash.]

Seeing it was a Holy Tier Sword Technique, a smile appeared on Lu Chen's face; finally, he was rewarded with a set of Holy Tier Sword Techniques.

Previously, he had only used Heaven Rank Swordsmanship and Heavenly-level Cultivation Skills. Although for most Great Emperors, the most powerful techniques and swordsmanship they could encounter in their lifetime were Heaven Rank, Lu Chen always felt that the swordsmanship and cultivation techniques suited him only moderately when he used them.

Perhaps because he mastered all the Power of Dao, typical swordsmanship and cultivation techniques seemed a bit too simple for him.

Lu Chen always hoped for the system to reward him with higher-tier swordsmanship, and now it finally came.

If he could learn the Holy Tier Swordsmanship, with the blessings of the Spirit Gathering Array, he might be able to unleash power surpassing that of the Heavenly Emperor, right?

Lying beneath Lu Chen, Lie Hongyun glanced aside while looking at Lu Chen, her body unmoving, seemingly contemplating something. Curiously, she asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Upon hearing Lie Hongyun's voice, Lu Chen came back to his senses. He smiled slightly, then raised his hand to stroke Lie Hongyun's smooth cheek, gazing into her beautiful eyes, and said, "I was thinking why you've become so proactive."

Upon hearing this, Lie Hongyun's delicate body trembled slightly. Only then did she realize that she had gone to great lengths to please Lu Chen recently, wondering if she had lost her mind.

Why did she do these things?

Lie Hongyun glanced at the marriage line on her body, noticing that she and Lu Chen were still tightly bound together.

In her heart, she thought perhaps all this was caused by the marriage line. Because the marriage line bound them together, that's why she engaged in such pleasing actions.

Yet, regardless of the reason, having been a Reincarnated Emperor, doing such things always left her feeling incredibly ashamed.

In her past life, when had she ever done these things to please a man?

Seeing Lie Hongyun fall into silence and her expression turn cold, Lu Chen smiled and said, "There's a unique flavor to you now."

Lie Hongyun calmed her inner emotions; since the deed was done, saying anything wouldn't change it, moreover, it had been her initiative.

Since she had made up her mind, she could only continue along this path.

Just as Lie Hongyun thought this, she suddenly noticed the bottleneck of her Realm loosening at that moment. Subsequently, a majestic force surged from within her, causing her Realm to continually ascend.

In merely a moment's time, her Realm broke through to the Great Emperor Second Realm; feeling her cultivation restored to the Great Emperor Second Realm, Lie Hongyun was stunned.

She could hardly believe this was real. Although she heard from Empress Tianhong that after being with Lu Chen, her cultivation might enhance, she thought it would take many encounters to see effect.

Unexpectedly, just once helped her leap to the Great Emperor Second Realm.

To have broken through so easily, what did her previous desperate cultivation amount to?

Reflecting on past events, Lie Hongyun's inner thoughts became somewhat chaotic, and her Dao Heart began to destabilize.

Lu Chen noticed something was off with Lie Hongyun's state, he immediately acted, channeling Origin Power into Lie Hongyun's body. The Origin Power quickly calmed the turbulent Power of Dao within her and soon composed her inner self.

Lie Hongyun gazed into Lu Chen's eyes, wanting to say something, yet not knowing what to say.

Lu Chen chuckled, "Did just this shake your Dao Heart?"

"You don't need to overthink; just take me as your destiny."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Lie Hongyun suddenly became clear-headed. Indeed, encountering fortuitous opportunities along the path of cultivation was common, and she need not pay too much heed to them.

The path of cultivation is always accompanied by unexpected occurrences, and most who reach the end have various opportune occurrences. Currently, Lu Chen is her opportunity.

Thinking this, Lie Hongyun's Dao Heart stabilized once more, and her cultivation path was unproblematic. Her success this time was simply because she encountered the greatest opportunity of her life.

Lie Hongyun's gaze turned once again to the marriage line binding the two, and as it slowly loosened, her emotions gradually returned to rationality.

Lie Hongyun spoke, "I might be Empress Tianhong's clone."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen curiously asked, "Might be? Why say it like that?"

Lu Chen indeed felt many similarities between Lie Hongyun and Empress Tianhong, especially in their aura.
