Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 247 Confused
His cultivation over this period of time finally allowed him to break through to the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.

He was just one step away from becoming a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

If you reach this stage, you've entered the ranks of the strong; at the very least, you can contend with the strongest young disciples under a sage.

"call!"

After letting out a long breath.

Lu Ming headed directly towards the imperial palace of the Great Yu Dynasty.

When I first stepped inside.

He saw Li Xirou and Yu Muyun taking a bath, and there were two other people beside them: one was the City Lord of Shiyu City, and the other was a young girl whom Lu Ming had never seen before.

It was breathtakingly beautiful even in a fleeting glimpse.

Then, Lu Ming withdrew his gaze.

The Star Sea Pool formed inside the palace, although not as large as the one outside, has a more concentrated energy.

The effect is also better.

Li Xirou and the others also clearly saw Lu Ming.

At this moment, City Lord Shiyu glared fiercely at his daughter. If she hadn't been pestering him every day, she wouldn't have come today, and Lu Ming just happened to see it.

As for Yunxi, she had only peeked out a little, but she wasn't shy at all. Looking at Yunjin, whose face was flushed, she kept laughing.

Yu Muyun said seriously, "Sister Yunjin, we didn't expect this to happen, but Sister Xirou and I will definitely persuade His Majesty to take responsibility."

"Stop fooling around, I have no intention of getting married." After seeing Lu Ming leave, City Lord Shi Yu hurriedly got up and put on his clothes.

He grabbed his daughter and left.

This scene made Yu Muyun sigh helplessly.

What a great opportunity! My husband didn't even seize it.

She could tell that Lord Shiyu City had feelings for Lu Ming, but for some reason, he always avoided her.

If Lu Ming were a bit more assertive, he could definitely get City Lord Shiyu to agree.

By then, there will be three people in the harem.

It will be more lively.

Thinking of this, she whispered her plan to Li Xirou.

"That's not a good idea. If Sister Yunjin doesn't agree, my husband will lose face."

Seeing Li Xirou say this, Yu Muyun was about to offer some advice.

Unexpectedly, the other party's eyes lit up and he said, "But it is indeed a good idea. Let's go find my husband now."

After saying that, he couldn't wait to get dressed and head towards the palace. Yu Muyun followed him with a smile.

As soon as I entered the palace, I saw Lu Ming sitting and drinking tea. "You're back so soon. I thought it would take a while."

He had a smile on his face, but then Li Xirou said, "Husband has gotten into trouble and doesn't even know it. After you saw his body, Sister Yun Jin grabbed her adopted daughter and left crying. You have to take responsibility."

Otherwise, given Sister Yunjin's strong-willed nature, I'm really afraid something might happen to her.

Her words left Lu Ming speechless.

Then, she looked at Yu Muyun, who nodded solemnly and said, "Although we tried to persuade her, judging from Sister Yunjin's expression, she seems a little unstable. This is no small matter, husband."

Think back to when we first arrived, when we were penniless, it was Sister Yun Jin who lent us immortal crystals. Whenever we encountered difficulties, we would ask her for help, and she never refused.

You saw me taking a shower here, but you're unwilling to take responsibility. That's a bit unreasonable.

If she doesn't think things through and something bad happens, it will be something we'll deeply regret.

The "confusion" she mentioned didn't mean that City Lord Shiyu was going to have a mental breakdown, but rather that it increased the probability of attacks from extraterrestrial demons during cultivation, which was indeed somewhat dangerous.

Lu Ming never expected that his two wives would conspire to trick him into marrying someone else.

Moreover, I did see everything I should and shouldn't have seen.

It's only right that they take responsibility.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Tomorrow, send someone with gifts to Shiyu City to propose marriage. But who should go?"

“The Minister of Rites can go, and I’ll go with him to persuade Sister Yunjin again,” Yu Muyun said immediately. Seeing her enthusiasm, Lu Ming didn’t think much of it.

"Alright, then you can go. As for the gifts, you can choose whatever you like, something generous."

"Ok."

Yu Muyun immediately replied, a smile appearing on her face.

However, at this moment, Lu Ming felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Just as he was thinking it.

Li Xirou had already interrupted Lu Ming's thoughts. If anyone knew her husband best, it had to be her.

In other words, the other party is close to both of them, and it's not a big deal; it's just about taking another wife.

Most importantly, Lu Ming wasn't too opposed to it, which is why they did their best to make it happen.

For now, the other party might not think about it from another angle, but if they think about it carefully, given Lu Ming's shrewdness, he'll probably figure it out.

Therefore, it's natural to change the subject and wait until tomorrow to send out the betrothal gifts.

Even if it's already a fait accompli, it's still a done deal.

"Husband, it's getting late. You haven't been back for a long time. Let's go and rest!"

When Li Xirou's voice rang out, Lu Ming did not refuse.

He immediately walked into the palace surrounded by the two women.

There was nothing to say all night, and it was early the next morning.

The Minister of Personnel of Dayu set off, accompanied by Yu Muyun, and protected by the Three Ancestors and three thousand personal guards, heading towards Shiyu City.

They are not slow.

Several days later, they arrived outside Stone Rain City.

This time, both Yu Muyun and Li Xirou went to great lengths to marry the City Lord of Shiyu.

They selected more than ten pieces of jewelry, all of which were of the highest quality, comparable to celestial artifacts.

There are also all kinds of clothes.

There were even more other items, enough to fill over a hundred carts.

Although it can be stored in a storage ring, isn't the point of the betrothal ceremony to be lively and grand?

When the troops entered the city.

The newly appointed deputy city lord of Shiyu City immediately came out to greet him.

The Empress of the Great Yu Dynasty arrived in person, but no one dared to neglect her.

As soon as he arrived in front of the Empress's carriage, he respectfully said, "Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress."

"No need for formalities, Her Majesty the Empress says she wishes to go to the City Lord's Mansion now." The clear voice of the female official in green rang out from behind the golden curtain.

The deputy city lord immediately replied, "Yes, sir!"

Then, he led the officials of City Lord Shiyu towards the City Lord's Mansion.

They dared not disobey Yu Muyun's orders.

After all, the strength of the Great Yu is now far greater than that of Shiyu City.

Moreover, their own city lord has a very good relationship with the other party.

Naturally, he had no choice but to refuse.

However, the message was still sent to the city lord's mansion.

At this moment, Yunxi hurriedly ran into the main hall where Yunjin was.

"Mother, I just received news that the Great Yu has sent you betrothal gifts, saying that the Emperor of Yu wants to marry you."

"Bang!" Upon hearing her daughter's words, Yun Jin unconsciously dropped a chess piece onto the chessboard.

For a moment, my mind was in complete turmoil.
