Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 2045 It was I who underestimated you humans.

Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Qu He, Yun Yudie's usually calm expression changed slightly.

At this point, she understood what was going on. She wondered how Lu Chen could be so bold as to meet her. It turned out that there was a powerful figure of this level by his side.

Clearly, she fell for the trap.

The moment Qu He released the spiritual energy, the evil energy on Yun Yudie's body immediately subsided, and then her half-skeletal body gradually regained its flesh and blood.

The next moment, she fell from the sky and stood on the narrow path in the valley, staring coldly at Lu Chen, motionless.

Seeing that Yun Yudie offered no resistance, Lu Chen asked in confusion, "Leader Yun, aren't you going to try to escape or put up a fight?"

Yun Yudie said expressionlessly, "I underestimated you humans. I didn't expect you to have a Heavenly Realm expert by your side."

Although Yun Yudie was very curious about how a remote dynasty like the Great Zhou could have a Heavenly Realm expert, there was no point in exploring it now.

Earth Realm has no chance of winning against Heaven Realm. Moreover, she is suppressed by the Great Zhou's fortune and her strength has not fully recovered. Even if she tries her best, she will most likely not be able to escape. So she might as well not waste any time.

Being sealed away is nothing to her; she will break the seal again sooner or later.

At the same time, Xu Jingshu, who was on the cliff in the valley, felt the terrifying pressure released by Qu He and instinctively wanted to escape.

However, to her surprise, Qu He suddenly raised his hand towards the cliff and made a grasping motion. The next moment, a tremendous force firmly restrained Xu Jingshu's body, and then her body flew directly to the bottom of the valley.

Xu Jingshu struggled continuously, trying to break free of control.

However, no matter how much she struggled, that invisible force still held her body in place.

At this moment, Yun Yudie's icy voice echoed throughout the valley: "Don't struggle, we can't escape."

Hearing Yun Yudie's words, Xu Jingshu gave up struggling, and the evil spirits and strange occurrences in the valley also stopped.

Even their leader said so, which proves that they have indeed failed.

The Zhou sisters, who were next to Lu Chen, were completely stunned.

Didn't Lu Chen say that Qu He was only at the late Earth Realm stage?

How could such a terrifying aura erupt?

Is this the late stage of the Earth Realm?

Are you kidding me?

This is completely different from what they know about the later stages of the Earth Realm.

Zhou Xiaoxiao wasn't stupid; she quickly realized what was going on. Clearly, Lu Chen had lied to them.

Lu Chen used her to pass on false information, luring Yun Yudie to attack him.

This made Zhou Xiaoxiao feel a little guilty. She originally thought that Lu Chen would be kidnapped by their leader and taken back to the Heavenly Fortune Sect, but she didn't expect the ending to be reversed. Their leader was captured by Lu Chen.

However, this will allow us to truly understand Lu Chen's purpose.

She wondered if Lu Chen wanted to seal them away or to have illicit relations with them.

Zhou Xiaoxiao and Zhou Youyou still suspected that Lu Chen's kindness and help in improving their cultivation were merely a means to exploit them in order to seal Yun Yudie.

Now that Yun Yudie has been brought under control, Lu Chen no longer needs to pretend.

If Lu Chen's purpose was to seal them, then he should have immediately had the old man take action.

But if Lu Chen really only lusts after their bodies, then he will probably take them back to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

For a moment, Zhou Xiaoxiao and her sister were extremely uneasy, their eyes fixed on Lu Chen, waiting for his next move.

At this moment, Yun Yudie also looked at Lu Chen and calmly asked, "The victor is king, the loser is villain. How do you intend to deal with me?" In her opinion, being sealed was no big deal.

Just then, Lu Chen walked slowly to Yun Yudie and replied with a smile, "I said in Dongxing City that you would become my wife."

Yun Yudie's malevolent aura suddenly erupted, and a murderous glint flashed in her eyes: "I would rather be sealed away than do anything shameful with you. You'd better give up on that idea!"

However, the moment her malevolent aura erupted, it was suppressed by a terrifying force.

For a moment, her delicate body swayed precariously, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her fair forehead.

Lu Chen chuckled lightly: "Sect Leader Yun, you don't have a choice now."

Yun Yudie felt as if the evil energy within her body was frozen and could not be released. The power of the Heavenly Realm made her feel a sense of fear.

She tried to remain calm, then threatened in a cold voice, "Even if you take me back to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, I will never agree to cultivate with you."

"On the contrary, if you do not seal me, I may take your life at any time."

Yun Yudie didn't believe that the old man would stay by Lu Chen's side forever.

If she gets the chance, she can kill Lu Chen.

Bringing her back to the Prince of Zhennan's mansion would be a huge threat to Lu Chen.

She didn't believe Lu Chen would keep someone like her, who posed a threat to his life, by his side unless Lu Chen was truly blinded by lust and completely blinded by desire.

Seeing Yun Yudie's strong resistance to dual cultivation with him, Lu Chen simply smiled faintly.

During his time at the Burial Furnace, he expended considerable effort in order to cultivate with Yun Yudie.

However, Yun Yudie is someone who values ​​the exchange of benefits. He believes that as long as the benefits are sufficient, Yun Yudie will agree to cultivate together with him.

Then Lu Chen said, "Don't you want to absorb the life force within me to quickly restore your strength?"

"You've seen how fast Xiaoxiao and Youyou are improving their cultivation levels. If you cultivate with me, it won't be long before you not only recover your strength, but you'll also break through to the Heavenly Realm."

"When the time comes, if you want to leave, I'm afraid no one will be able to stop you."

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Yun Yudie fell into deep thought.

It seems he wasn't wrong. If she could break through to the Heavenly Realm, given her mysterious identity, this Heavenly Realm human beside Lu Chen wouldn't pose any threat to her.

At the same level, and with the Great Zhou's fortune not being too strong, the strange creature's strength is inherently greater than that of humans. At that time, let alone escaping from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, it wouldn't be impossible for it to even kidnap Lu Chen.

The thought of her being able to abduct Lu Chen, a high-quality blood food with boundless vitality, stirred a slight desire in Yun Yudie's heart. However, the thought of her, a noble ghost king, engaging in illicit relations with a human still made her feel extremely disgusted.

For a moment, Yun Yudie was in a state of great inner turmoil.

Seeing that Yun Yudie remained silent, Lu Chen tempted her again: "Once you become a Heavenly Realm Anomaly, I'm afraid no one in the Great Zhou will be your match."

"By then, not only will it be me, but the entire Great Zhou will be your ranch, Sect Leader Yun. Are you really not going to consider making a deal with me?"

Hearing Lu Chen's instigation, Xu Jingshu quickly said, "Master, you must not believe the words of this lowly blood servant. You are of noble status, how can you submit to him? He must have a bigger conspiracy."

To be honest, Xu Jingshu was also tempted, but she didn't believe that Lu Chen would really help them improve their cultivation level.

Humans aren't stupid; why would they help a demon king break through to the Heavenly Realm? (End of Chapter)
