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

Seeing that Yun Yudie was angry, Lu Chen just smiled faintly, then turned around and left the Ice Palace.

Seeing Lu Chen's departing figure, Yun Yudie frowned slightly, her expression turning cold and serious. She seriously doubted that Lu Chen's words just now were a joke.

That scoundrel might actually make her his empress after establishing his celestial dynasty.

She didn't want to be Lu Chen's empress. Letting her and Lu Chen cultivate together in private was already crossing her bottom line. If Ye Chuyao found out that she also had that kind of relationship with Lu Chen, how would she see her?
Of course, Ye Chuyao's opinion was secondary. The most important thing was that when she brought Lu Chen back, she took him in as her personal disciple. If the disciples of Xuan Yue Palace saw that their palace master had that kind of relationship with their disciple, wouldn't Xuan Yue Palace be in chaos in the future?

Although she didn't acknowledge that she and Lu Chen were master and disciple after learning Lu Chen's identity, the disciples of Xuan Yue Palace still treated them as such, since they didn't know Lu Chen's true identity.

Once she, as the palace master, sets a precedent, many impure master-disciple relationships will surely emerge in the Xuan Yue Palace. If the master and disciple are truly in love, that's fine, but what she worries about is that some elders or people of high status will take advantage of their position and use the guise of recruiting disciples to turn their disciples into their own personal possessions.

Such things do happen in the Tianyan Immortal Realm, especially among some sects with questionable morals. Yun Yudie is worried that something like this might happen to the Xuan Yue Palace in the future.

……

Meanwhile, in the Azure Sea Fairy City.

City Lord's Mansion.

More than a dozen Immortal Lords had already arrived in the main hall. Among them were outer sect elders of the Xuan Yue Palace, as well as sect leaders or elders of affiliated forces.

They all belonged to Lu Chen's faction, and upon hearing that Lu Chen was going to hold a meeting, they immediately came to the council hall of the city lord's mansion.

At this moment, an elder from the outer sect of Xuan Yue Palace asked curiously, "Elder Chen, may I ask what brings you to us?"

Lu Chen replied directly, "I just received news that the sect leader of the Flowing Sand Sect has broken through, and immediately after the breakthrough, he chose to betray the Profound Moon Palace and led the Flowing Sand Sect to join the Thunder Serpent Sect."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned. After they came to their senses, an elder hurriedly asked, "Is what Elder Chen said true?"

The sect leader of another affiliated sect also asked, "Where did Elder Chen get this information from?"

Lu Chen said, "This news was told to me by the Palace Master. After the Flowing Sand Sect broke away from the Profound Moon Palace, the Palace Master immediately sensed that the Profound Moon Palace's immortal fortune had declined significantly."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone looked at each other. Since the news came from their palace master, it was most likely true.

only……

An elder from the outer hall asked curiously, "Strange, such a big thing has happened, why hasn't the hall master summoned us to discuss this matter?"

Betrayal by an affiliated sect is no small matter. Moreover, as Lu Chen just mentioned, the sect leader of the Flowing Sand Sect has broken through and is now a Celestial King. Celestial Kings are not so easy to deal with.

However, Xuan Yue Palace is still a celestial sect. If it ignores the betrayal of its affiliated sects, then more affiliated sects will likely choose to betray Xuan Yue Palace in the future.

Moreover, my Xuan Yue Palace is an outside force with an unstable foundation in the wilderness. At this time, we need to use swift and decisive measures to suppress the traitors. Only in this way can we make an example of them.

If Xuan Yue Palace does not take strong measures to suppress the traitors, it will become a joke in the eyes of those affiliated sects, and no one will listen to Xuan Yue Palace anymore.

Just as the group of immortal lords in the main hall were puzzled as to why Yun Yudie had not summoned them to discuss how to deal with the traitor, Lu Chen spoke up and said, "The hall master said that this matter is left to me to handle." "If we can conquer the Flowing Sand Sect and the Thunder Serpent Sect, then the lands of those two sects will belong to me, and then I will establish an immortal dynasty on those two sects."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately realized that their temple master had already made arrangements.

but……

Lu Zhengze asked, "Your Majesty, did the Palace Master say he would provide you with any assistance?"

Lu Chen said calmly, "No, but as long as the immortals of the Xuan Yue Palace are willing to help me fight against the Liu Sha Sect and the Lei She Sect, they can go. She won't stop them."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone fell into deep thought. They wondered why their Palace Master didn't take action directly and instead had to let Lu Chen resolve the matter.

It looks as if their temple master is ready to cut ties with Lu Chen at any time?
Perhaps it's because Lu Chen wants to create an Immortal Dynasty? After all, an Immortal Dynasty needs a sense of identity. If he relies on the power of the Xuan Yue Palace to destroy the Liu Sha Sect and the Lei She Sect, then the people in the territories of the Liu Sha Sect and the Lei She Sect will only recognize the Xuan Yue Palace and will not recognize their Immortal Dynasty.

Just as everyone was lost in thought, Lu Zhengze said, "Before establishing the Immortal Dynasty, we still need to create an imperial dynasty so that the people of the barbarians know which power we belong to and can enhance their sense of identity with our Immortal Dynasty."

At this point, Lu Zhengze looked at Lu Chen and asked, "I wonder what name Your Majesty intends to use for the country?"

Lu Chen thought for a moment, then said, "Let's go with Great Qin."

Having said that, Lu Chen glanced at everyone present again and continued, "From this day forward, I am the ruler of the Great Qin!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately realized what was happening and hurriedly bowed to Lu Chen, saying, "Greetings, Lord of Great Qin!!!"

As everyone bowed, Lu Chen clearly felt that he had gained some luck, but this bit of luck was dispensable to him.

This is merely the fortune of an imperial dynasty, not the fortune of a celestial dynasty. For an imperial dynasty to upgrade to a celestial dynasty, it needs to gain the recognition of more immortals. At this moment, the Great Qin is no different from the countries created by those cultivators.

Lu Chen said calmly, "No need for formalities!"

"Now that the dynasty has been established, the next step is the western expedition. You need to find a way to spread the news of the Flowing Sand Sect's betrayal of the Profound Moon Palace and call on more people to join the expeditionary force."

Everyone said in unison, "We will obey His Majesty's decree!"

And so, a dynasty ruled by immortals appeared on the wild land.

Lu Chen already had a certain reputation within the Xuan Yue Palace, and his faction controlled the Bi Hai Immortal City. The combined fortune of Bi Hai Immortal City was far richer than that of secular dynasties created by cultivators. Therefore, Lu Chen's establishment of a dynasty was recognized by the Heavenly Dao as soon as he opened his mouth, without needing any ceremony.

Now that the dynasty has been established, all that is needed is to continuously expand its territory and gain the recognition of more immortals to upgrade the dynasty to an immortal dynasty.

With the establishment of the Great Qin Dynasty, the news that the Flowing Sand Sect had betrayed the Profound Moon Palace and joined the Thunder Serpent Sect spread throughout the entire Dragon-Gathering Land in a very short time.

When the forces in the Dragon Nest Land learned that the Flowing Sand Sect had betrayed the Profound Moon Palace, almost all of them were watching the Profound Moon Palace's reaction closely.
