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

Looking at the imperial edict in his hand, the Prince of Zhennan said, "I thought the Empress Dowager would hesitate for a while, but I didn't expect her to agree so readily."

Zhao Yu said, "I'm afraid she thinks that once we seal those five strange Earth Realm experts, there won't be many strong people left in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. At that time, it will be easy for the royal family to destroy the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, so she agreed so readily."

The Prince of Zhennan said, "Regardless of what she thinks, this is an opportunity for us. Now that we have returned to our fiefdom, let Wei Heng go to Guangling County and give those a bad word to those powerful families."

The fiefdom of the Prince of Zhennan has been abolished for nearly a hundred years. Although the Prince of Zhennan's mansion still has some influence in the Jiangnan area, many prominent families in Jiangnan have long lost their loyalty to the Prince of Zhennan's mansion.

At this moment, the Prince of Zhennan's gaze fell on Lu Chen. "Soon those strange beings will know that we have accepted this imperial decree, and they will definitely target the Prince of Zhennan's mansion. Chen'er, before we find those five Earth Realm strange beings, you'd better not leave the Prince of Zhennan's mansion."

The supernatural can transform into human form and perfectly hide among the crowd. It's possible that there are supernatural beings even in the current imperial court. The news that the Prince of Zhennan's mansion is going to fight against the supernatural beings will definitely not be kept from them. After learning about this, those supernatural beings will definitely want to settle old scores and new grudges together.

Lu Chen is the hope for the rise of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. Anyone in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion can be in trouble, but even if all the powerful figures in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion are dead, Lu Chen cannot be allowed to be in trouble.

Upon hearing the words of the Prince of Zhennan, Lu Chen said, "Father, if I don't go out, how can I lure the snake out of its hole?"

"Moreover, only I can identify those strange places now. If I don't go out, I'm afraid I'll never be able to find out where those strange places are hiding."

This……

The Prince of Zhennan fell silent. Lu Chen was right. Although the Prince of Zhennan's mansion had many powerful figures, these figures could not discern the strangeness of the land realm. So even if these figures patrolled the capital every day, it would be useless.

Those supernatural beings must also understand that the best way to destroy the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is to eliminate Lu Chen, the only bloodline of the Zhennan Prince. Once he dies, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion will collapse on its own and won't last long. Therefore, Lu Chen is the first target of those supernatural beings.

If Lu Chen is kept in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion and those strange beings are not given a chance, they may never come to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and it will be very difficult for them to find those five Earth Realm strange beings.

Therefore, using Lu Chen as bait is indeed the best approach.

only……

The Prince of Zhennan was very worried. Even though he had arranged for Zhao Yu and the other two Earth Realm experts to protect Lu Chen, he was still uneasy about letting Lu Chen go out.

Previously, they were facing the Great Zhou royal family. If Lu Chen had been protected by three Earth Realm experts, the Great Zhou royal family would have had to consider the consequences if they wanted to kill him. Three Earth Realm experts are not so easy to deal with.

But now they are facing an anomaly. Those five Earth Realm anomalies that have broken through the seal are not afraid of Zhao Yu and his two fellow Earth Realm experts. Those Earth Realm anomalies are immortal and indestructible. Even if not all five Earth Realm anomalies come out, just two of them would probably be difficult for Zhao Yu and his two fellow experts to deal with.

If Lu Chen were to encounter those strange and unusual places outside, he might very well lose his life.

After a long while, the Prince of Zhennan sighed and then said, "Chen'er, even if we have to use you as bait, we must be fully prepared."

After thinking for a moment, the Prince of Zhennan realized that if they wanted to find those few strange beings at the Earth Realm, they would probably have to rely on Lu Chen's so-called ability to recognize people.

Lu Chen knew that the Prince of Zhennan was worried about him, so he said, "Father, don't worry, I won't leave the Prince of Zhennan's mansion casually. If I ever discover any strange traces in the land, I will go out to lure them into attacking."

At this point, Lu Chen suddenly remembered something and continued, "Father, have you forgotten that I still possess dragon energy?"

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the Prince of Zhennan immediately realized, "That's right, how could I have forgotten about the dragon aura? As long as Lu Chen doesn't leave the capital region, with the protection of the dragon aura, it won't be so easy for those strange creatures to kill him." Of course, this is all predicated on Lu Chen not leaving the capital region. If those strange creatures lure Lu Chen out of the capital region, or use some method to take him away from the capital region, then the protective effect of the dragon aura will be ineffective.

After regaining his senses, the Prince of Zhennan said, "That's true. With the dragon's aura present, as long as you don't leave the capital region and the Great Zhou Dynasty doesn't fall, those strange entities won't be able to directly harm you."

Lu Chen said, "So Father, you don't need to worry too much about my safety."

The Prince of Zhennan said, "It's always good to be careful. No one knows if those strange creatures have any methods to target dragon energy."

Lu Chen said, "Father is right."

At this moment, Zhao Yu said from the side, "Your Majesty, the imperial edict appoints you as the temporary commander of the Suppression of Ghosts Division, but your health is currently..."

Zhao Yu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Although Lu Chen had extracted a significant amount of the black evil energy from the King of Zhennan's body, he was still suffering from the backlash of the spiritual evil energy. If he didn't take action, the backlash wouldn't be too severe, but once he did, the backlash would become extremely serious.

If the Prince of Zhennan were to fight against the strange beings of the Earth Realm, he would likely suffer severe injuries. The position of Commander of the Strange Beings Suppressing the Enemy is not an easy one to hold.

The Prince of Zhennan understood Zhao Yu's meaning and calmly said, "It's alright, I just won't leave the capital."

Like Lu Chen, he also possesses dragon energy. As long as he doesn't leave the capital region, the strange entity won't be able to kill him directly.

However, the premise is that he cannot act recklessly. If he does, he will arouse the spiritual evil within his body, which will intensify the backlash from the spiritual evil and indirectly hasten his death.

The Prince of Zhennan continued, "Now that the imperial decree has been issued, I, as the commander, should also go and take a look at the Zhengui Division."

In order to deal with those five strange beings of the Earth Realm, he now needs to reorganize the Town Demon Suppression Division. Moreover, the Town Demon Suppression Division has just been severely damaged, and people are now in a state of panic. Although the higher-ups of the Town Demon Suppression Division know what is going on, the Town Demon Guards and even the commanders of the Town Demon Suppression Division do not know that it is all an act.

If we don't stabilize public morale soon, it will be even more difficult to deal with the supernatural beings once the morale of the Zhengui Division collapses.

After a quick tidying up, the Prince of Zhennan boarded a carriage and headed to the Zhengui Division.

Princess Yun'an's Residence.

Ji Yunmeng lay on the bed, her pale and cold face devoid of any color, her disheveled hair hanging down on both sides of her cheeks, making her look like she was seriously injured.

Just then, Xiao Qi rushed into the room in a panic, "Princess, something terrible has happened!"

Seeing Xiao Qi so flustered, Ji Yunmeng frowned slightly, "What's wrong?"

She had a vague sense of unease. Could it be that the deeds of the Zhengui Division and the Zhennan Prince's Mansion had been exposed?

Just then, Xiao Qi said, "The palace spies have sent word that you have been removed from your position as commander of the Zhengui Division, and the Prince of Zhennan is now temporarily acting as commander!" (End of Chapter)
