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

The moment the envoy from the Thunder Serpent Sect arrived at the Mysterious Moon Palace, the Mysterious Moon Palace issued a decree forbidding any further expansion.

That means the Thunder Serpent Sect went to the Profound Moon Palace, most likely for this very reason.

If this is the reason, it proves that the affiliated forces of the Xuan Yue Palace have recently expanded too much and invaded the territory of the Lei She Sect. Therefore, the Lei She Sect sent an envoy to the Xuan Yue Palace. In order to avoid conflict with the Lei She Sect, the Xuan Yue Palace issued such a decree to prevent conflict between the affiliated forces of the Xuan Yue Palace and the Lei She Sect.

Since the Xuan Yue Palace would issue this immortal decree for the Thunder Serpent Sect, it proves that the Xuan Yue Palace is actually somewhat wary of the Thunder Serpent Sect, otherwise they would not have paid any attention to the Thunder Serpent Sect.

However, while the Xuan Yue Palace is wary of the Lei She Sect, the Lei She Sect is equally wary of the Xuan Yue Palace. After all, the Xuan Yue Palace has two Immortal Kings, while the Lei She Sect only has one.

Furthermore, with the Xuan Yue Palace coming on strong and subduing the surrounding major forces in such a short time, the Lei She Sect is now facing tremendous pressure.

If the Thunder Serpent Sect were to produce another Immortal King, then the Thunder Serpent Sect would be qualified to rival the Profound Moon Palace.

Thinking of this, Immortal Lord Liusha immediately said to the Grand Elder of Liusha Sect, "Elder Zeyang, go to Thunder Serpent Sect and ask them if they are interested in having another Immortal King level elder."

Upon hearing this, the elders in the hall were stunned. What did their hall master mean by this?
An elder at the level of a Celestial King?
How did the Thunder Serpent Sect end up with an elder at the Immortal King level?
Immortal Lord Liusha continued, "I am just one step away from breaking through to become an Immortal King. If I have the help of the Thunder Serpent Sect, I will become an Immortal King in no time."

Upon hearing Immortal Lord Liusha's words, the elders immediately realized that their sect leader intended to betray the Xuan Yue Palace and join the Lei She Sect.

but……

Will the Thunder Serpent Sect really help their sect leader become a Celestial King?
After all, he was a Celestial King, not a Celestial Lord. If the Thunder Serpent Sect had another Celestial King, then not everything would be decided by the Thunder Serpent Celestial King.

Razer King probably won't easily relinquish his power, right?

At this moment, the Great Elder Zeyang Immortal Lord of the Thunder Serpent Sect said, "Sect Master, surely the Thunder Serpent Immortal King doesn't trust us?"

Immortal Lord Liusha continued, "I believe the Thunder Serpent Sect will agree."

The Thunder Serpent Sect originally intended to establish an immortal sect, but the Xuan Yue Palace, a force of unknown origin, directly occupied the airspace that the Thunder Serpent Sect originally planned to use to establish the immortal sect. Just for this reason alone, the Thunder Serpent Immortal King must have been extremely resentful of the Xuan Yue Palace.

Most importantly, the Xuan Yue Palace has two Immortal Kings, whose strength is far greater than that of the Lei She Sect. Although the two forces are far apart, there are only so many places with immortal energy in this desolate region. If the Xuan Yue Palace continues to grow stronger, it will eventually attack the Lei She Sect.

The Thunder Serpent Sect is currently facing immense pressure. If they could have another Immortal King, it would not only be easier for them to establish an Immortal Sect, but the pressure they would face when confronting the Profound Moon Palace would also be much less.

Thunder Serpent Immortal Lord continued, "That's all for today."

After hearing what Thunder Serpent Immortal Lord said, all the elders left the main hall. At this moment, Thunder Serpent Immortal Lord said to Zeyang Immortal Lord, "Zeyang, you stay."

Immortal Lord Zeyang stopped and waited for the other elders to leave. Immortal Lord Leishe then gave Immortal Lord Zeyang some instructions, after which Immortal Lord Zeyang immediately went to Leishe Sect.

……

Meanwhile, below the Xuan Yue Palace.

Azure Sea Fairy City.

This new Azure Sea Immortal City shares the same name as the former Azure Sea Immortal City in the Southern Region. This is mainly because most of the immortals who created this city were originally from Azure Sea Immortal City. After arriving in the Wilderness with the Xuan Yue Palace, these immortals deeply missed their former Azure Sea Immortal City, so they named this new city Azure Sea Immortal City. However, the new Azure Sea Immortal City is not actually under the control of the Xuan Yue Palace, as most of those managing it are Lu Chen's people. The current Azure Sea Immortal City is more like Lu Chen's personal private city.

Lu Chen single-handedly held off the three Immortal Kings of the Blood Eagle Palace, and finally activated a heaven-defying formation to teleport the entire Xuan Yue Palace to the Wilderness. Although he is now only an elder, in the hearts of many people in the Xuan Yue Palace, his status is already comparable to that of the third palace master of the Xuan Yue Palace.

This also earned Lu Chen the support of many people in the Xuan Yue Palace, and gradually a faction led by Lu Chen was formed. With the help of Ling Yin Immortal King's efforts, many elders in the outer palace were actually more willing to listen to Lu Chen.

There is an even more important reason for this: Lu Chen is the only male elder in the inner hall, while the male elders in the outer hall were selected to enter the Xuan Yue Hall after being tested by Lu Chen. Although it was just a test, for those people, it was Lu Chen's help that enabled them to join the Xuan Yue Hall.

If Lu Chen had fabricated a reason back then, saying that they had betrayed the Xuan Yue Palace and therefore could not join it, they would have felt indebted to him.

Of course, as the only male elder in the inner hall, if other male elders want to become inner hall elders, given Lu Chen's ability to identify traitors, they will inevitably have to get Lu Chen's approval in the future.

Lu Zhengze and his former subordinates seized this opportunity to transform the entire New Azure Sea Immortal City into Lu Chen's private immortal city, and even built a city lord's mansion in Azure Sea Immortal City that resembled a royal palace.

This is why Yun Yudie warned Lu Chen. Yun Yudie had been watching Lu Zhengze and his group's little tricks all along, but considering Lu Chen's contributions, she didn't interfere at first.

However, as Lu Zhengze and his group recruited more and more people, Yun Yudie became restless. Lingyin Immortal King of Xuan Yue Palace was already one of Lu Chen's people. If Lu Chen recruited even more people, Xuan Yue Palace would probably have to change its name to "Lu" in the future.

At this moment, in the City Lord's Mansion of Azure Sea Immortal City, Lu Zhengze was discussing the establishment of an Immortal Dynasty with everyone in the council hall.

Yun Yudie warned Lu Chen more than a decade ago. As a result, Lu Chen clashed with her for more than a decade after she warned him. During this time, Lu Chen did not pay attention to what Lu Zhengze and his group were doing. During this period, Lu Chen's faction's power continued to grow.

At this moment, there were even several outer hall elders of the Xuan Yue Palace in the main hall. In the eyes of these outer hall elders, Lu Zhengze and the others were so openly saying that they wanted to create a celestial dynasty, but the hall master did not care. This proved that the hall master did not care about these things, so they boldly joined in.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in the hall. Upon seeing that it was Lu Chen, everyone quickly bowed.

"Meet the king!"

"Greetings, sir!"

"Greetings, Elder Chen!"

……

Different people in the hall addressed Lu Chen in different ways. Lu Chen nodded slightly, then looked at Lu Zhengze and asked, "What's going on here?"

Lu Zhengze immediately replied, "Your Majesty, we are discussing the establishment of a Celestial Dynasty."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was speechless. His subordinates were even more anxious than he was, but he wasn't surprised.

After all, he had been an emperor for so many years, and he knew very well that as long as he became the Immortal Emperor, all his subordinates would benefit, the greatest benefit being the fortune of the Immortal Dynasty.

The closer one is to the Celestial Emperor, the more abundant the Celestial Dynasty's fortune they receive, which is of great benefit to them. (End of Chapter)
