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

When light reappeared before Lu Chen's eyes, he was already inside the Yunmeng Palace.

The Cloud Dream Palace is entirely made of colorful fairy crystals, which emit a seven-colored light, making the entire palace look very dreamlike.

At this moment, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng was wearing a seven-colored light gauze dress, standing in the main hall with her back to him.

Lu Chen immediately said, "Greetings, Palace Master. May I ask what business the Palace Master has with me?"

Immortal Venerable Yunmeng turned around at this moment, glanced at Lu Chen, and then said, "Are you getting used to Xuan Yue Palace?"

Lu Chen was taken aback. He didn't think that Immortal Venerable Yunmeng was looking for him because he was concerned about whether he was getting used to staying in Xuan Yue Palace.

Lu Chen then used the system's recognition function to check Yunmeng Immortal Venerable's personal profile. Yunmeng Immortal Venerable's profile had been updated, showing Yunmeng Immortal Venerable's recent schemes against him.

Lu Chen chuckled inwardly. So, they wanted to obtain the Divine Illumination Thousand Lamps Scripture from him.

Lu Chen then said, "Palace Master, please speak freely."

Knowing that Lu Chen was not easily fooled, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng said directly, "You must have heard about what happened in the Northern Region recently, right?"

Lu Chen said, "I've been in seclusion cultivating recently, so I don't know much about what's happening outside."

Yunmeng Immortal Venerable said, "Now nearly half of the land in the Northern Region is controlled by the Demon Emperor's army. The major forces in the Northern Region are almost unable to resist. The power of the Heavenly Demon suppresses the power of the Immortal. If the Demon Emperor is allowed to continue to grow stronger and recover his strength, it will be a disaster for the entire Tianyan Immortal Domain."

At this point, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng glanced at Lu Chen and noticed that his face remained expressionless. She frowned slightly and continued, "The Tianhua Palace of the Southern Region has issued an arrest warrant for you, saying that you possess the means to suppress evil forces."

"I don't know if it's a cultivation technique or a magic weapon, but if it can suppress evil power, it might be useful in dealing with the Heavenly Demon."

Upon hearing Yunmeng Immortal Venerable's words, Lu Chen instantly understood her meaning; she wanted to use Tianhua Palace to threaten him.

She seemed to be implying that if he didn't hand over the method to suppress evil power, she might spread the news of his presence in the Xuan Yue Palace.

Of course, Lu Chen did not believe that Immortal Venerable Yunmeng would do such a thing. He was not worried about Immortal Venerable Yunmeng's threat at all. Lu Chen then said, "This is just an excuse used by Tianhua Palace to find me. Tianhua Palace thought that after I went to the Chaos Sea, I obtained a lot of opportunities from the Chaos Sea, so they wanted to get those opportunities from me."

"However, I escaped to the Central Region. Tianhua Palace probably searched the entire Southern Region but couldn't find me, so they issued this wanted notice. If finding me brings no benefit, then other forces naturally won't help Tianhua Palace search for me. But if finding me brings benefits and can help deal with the current crisis, then all the major forces will send people to search for me."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng pondered for a moment. Lu Chen's words were not without reason. The letter sent by Tianhua Palace did not say that Lu Chen necessarily had a way to deal with the power of the Heavenly Demon, but only that he was suspected of being able to restrain the power of evil.

If one day in the future, other forces help Tianhua Palace capture Lu Chen and interrogate him about whether he has a way to restrain the power of the Heavenly Demon, and Lu Chen knows nothing and cannot even find any related memories through soul searching, then Tianhua Palace will definitely say that they only said they suspected he might have it, and did not say that Lu Chen definitely has a way to restrain the power of the Heavenly Demon.

At this moment, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng calmly gazed at Lu Chen, seemingly trying to discern from Lu Chen's face whether he was lying.

Lu Chen's expression was also calm, not at all like he was lying, and he didn't seem afraid of being searched. Could it really be as Lu Chen said, that this was just a small trick used by Tianhua Palace to find Lu Chen?
Immortal Venerable Yunmeng asked, "Do you truly have no way to restrain the power of the Heavenly Demon?"

Lu Chen countered, "Does the Palace Master have a way to restrain the power of the Heavenly Demon?"

Yunmeng Immortal Venerable replied, "No." Lu Chen said, "Even a super power like Xuan Yue Palace doesn't have one, so how could I possibly have one?"

Yunmeng Immortal Venerable said, "That's hard to say, after all, you've been to the Chaos Sea."

Lu Chen said, "There are only dangers, no opportunities, in the Chaos Sea."

"If there really were any opportunities in the Chaos Sea, the Demon Emperor's cultivation level wouldn't have dropped so much when he came out of it. Does the Palace Master think that a Celestial King or a Celestial Emperor would have gained more opportunities by entering the Chaos Sea?"

"If even an Immortal Emperor didn't gain any opportunities upon entering the Chaos Sea, then how could I, an Immortal King, possibly discover opportunities that even an Immortal Emperor couldn't obtain?"

At this moment, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable could not be sure whether Lu Chen was telling the truth or not. She then said, "Whether the Demon Emperor has obtained an opportunity or not, only she herself probably knows."

Yunmeng Immortal Venerable did not explicitly mention Lu Chen, but these words also apply to Lu Chen. Whether Lu Chen has obtained any opportunities or not, only Lu Chen himself probably knows best now.

After thinking for a moment, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable decided not to continue questioning Lu Chen for the time being. She planned to send someone to investigate why Tianhua Palace had issued such a high-profile arrest warrant.

Is the letter from Tianhua Palace genuine, or is it just an excuse used by Tianhua Palace to capture Lu Chen?

At this moment, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng said to Lu Chen, "I believe you are not lying. You can go back now."

Lu Chen then said, "Thank you for your trust, Palace Master."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen turned and left.

Seeing Lu Chen's departing figure, Immortal Venerable Yunmeng still harbored some doubts.

She then summoned several people and sent them to the Southern Region to investigate what had happened between Lu Chen and the Tianhua Palace since Lu Chen returned from the Chaos Sea.

After Lu Chen left Yunmeng Palace, he was just about to return to Tianyu Peak when he saw a fairy in a long red dress passing by not far from him.

At this moment, Xu Jingshu felt something and suddenly turned to look at Lu Chen. When she saw Lu Chen, Xu Jingshu was slightly lost in thought.

She hadn't seen Lu Chen for a long time, which made her miss him terribly. The happy memories that Lu Chen had brought her in the past always echoed in her mind.

Xu Jingshu was an important figure on the main peak, so when she turned to look at Lu Chen, almost everyone present followed her gaze to Lu Chen. People were very curious as to why the mother of the unborn saintess would stare at the disciple of Tianyu Peak.

Realizing she had lost her composure, Xu Jingshu sent a telepathic message to Lu Chen, asking, "Can I acknowledge you as my father?"

The days without Lu Chen were really hard for her, the evil immortal. She wanted to reunite with Lu Chen, but she was also afraid that her current identity would cause trouble for him.

Lu Chen replied with a smile, "Of course."

To Lu Chen, this was just a physical body; even if something happened to him, it wouldn't affect him. Therefore, he wasn't worried that recognizing Xu Jingshu would bring him any trouble. (End of Chapter)
