Next, and most importantly, Qiu Xianyu took His Majesty back to the sleeping palace to retrieve his natal magic weapon.

After that, she planned to take His Majesty away from the cemetery and make contact with the descendants of the Yuan family to prepare for the restoration of the country.

The two walked through the plaza where the dragon riders slept and arrived in front of a magnificent palace, where Qiu Xianyu began to have doubts again.

How did His Majesty get out if the gate wasn't open?
A strange yet logical scene unfolded: the palace gates, which normally required four keys to open, were somehow unlocked by Li Chen, who simply pushed the palace gates open.

Although Qiu Xianyu was puzzled, he did not ask.

When Li Chen stepped into the palace where the Dragon Emperor slept, the entire space seemed to tremble at his arrival.

The dome hangs high like a sky curtain, making this place seem like another world, a world belonging to the Dragon Emperor.

In the center of the main hall stands a giant coffin carved from the Nine Heavens Jade. It is as black as ink, but its surface is covered with dark gold dragon patterns, each line of which seems to meander and move as if it were alive.

Around the coffin, hundreds of golden dragon phantoms coiled and intertwined, their scales gleaming like molten lava, their eyes crimson like a blood moon, and their deep dragon roars echoed in layers, causing ripples in the air.

After Qiu Xianyu entered, he felt even more puzzled, because the coffin in front of him did not seem to be opened.

At this moment, Li Chen simply stood with his hands behind his back, his black robe fluttering without wind, and the faint phantom of a five-clawed golden dragon appeared around him, colliding violently with the dragon's might on the coffin, causing the entire hall to resound with the clang of metal striking stone.

Seeing this, Qiu Xianyu finally realized that the man in front of her might not be the Dragon Emperor!

The real Dragon Emperor is still inside the coffin, which is why this clanging sound of metal striking stone is heard.

Qiu Xianyu took a few steps back, looking at Li Chen warily, and questioned, "You're lying to me. You're not the Dragon Emperor. Who are you?"

Li Chen shrugged and replied casually, "I never said I was the Dragon Emperor; you're the one who thinks so."

Hearing Li Chen say this, Qiu Xianyu was filled with shock and anger. Recalling the absurd things she and Li Chen had done in the past few days, she was filled with shame and indignation.

As the Dragon Emperor's beloved concubine, how could she have the face to see him after doing such a thing?

"Then why does Nangong Xiang call you Your Majesty?" Qiu Xianyu asked the last question.

"Because I am the current emperor of the Tian Ce Dynasty, isn't it reasonable for her to call me Your Majesty?" Li Chen really didn't intend to lie.

You've been having a great time these past few days without asking me anything, so you can't blame me for that.

You can call me Your Majesty and I will answer; I am the emperor, and that title is correct.

At this moment, Qiu Xianyu felt like dying, but before that, she had to find a way to awaken the Dragon Emperor.

Li Chen had worked with her for a while, so he knew exactly what she was trying to achieve with her actions.

In an instant, Li Chen was beside her and gently snapped his fingers near her ear with his right hand.

Qiu Xianyu felt her vision blur and began to lose consciousness, collapsing to the ground.

Then Li Chen said to the door, "Come in."

He had long suspected that someone had been following him ever since he left Qiu Xianyu's palace.

That's right, this person is Wu Nanzhi. Seeing that Li Chen was having a good time these past few days, Wu Nanzhi didn't disturb him.

However, no one cared more about Li Chen's safety than her, so she stayed nearby the whole time.

Wu Nanzhi staggered as soon as she stepped into the palace gate, her face turning deathly pale.

The pressure emanating from the coffin was so tangible that it even suppressed the roar of the sacred tiger within her body into a whimper.

"Your Majesty, this Dragon Emperor truly lives up to his reputation."

Wu Nanzhi stared warily at the coffin opposite her. Only Li Chen was unharmed here; the others were under immense pressure.

Wu Nanzhi also saw that there were nine bronze chains on the coffin, and at the end of each chain hung a Dragon Emperor's natal magic weapon: a celestial sphere that swallows and spits out stars, a Kui dragon drum wrapped with thunder, and a sword that is soaked in blood. The chain in the very center was also tied with a jade seal.

“Indeed, just those dragon riders alone are enough to show the Dragon Emperor’s abilities.” Li Chen was never one to underestimate his opponents.

"Then Your Majesty, we'd better kill the Dragon Emperor before he wakes up, to avoid endless troubles later." Wu Nanzhi certainly didn't want the Dragon Emperor to be resurrected.

“Absolutely. Now that I know he’s here, I have no intention of letting him continue to exist.” Li Chen agreed with Wu Nanzhi’s view.

Two tigers cannot share one mountain, let alone two emperors in one country.

As everyone knows, Li Chen is a very cautious person.

Without absolute certainty, approaching rashly might awaken the slumbering Dragon Emperor, sparking a fierce and devastating battle that could shatter the earth and cause the heavens to collapse.

Li Chen felt it was unnecessary; he would rather use that energy for the other concubines sleeping here.

Now that he had a plan in mind, Li Chen decided to proceed step by step.

He first took out his 'treasure bag' that he always prepared before going out, which contained the array stones that Li Chen liked to use the most.

Wu Nanzhi knew about these things and had seen Li Chen display them before, but this time she was dazzled by the sight.

Wu Nanzhi recognized several formations, including the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Bin Ling Array, the Tian Gang Suo Long Array, the Jiu You Zhen Hun Array, and the Xu Kong Shackles Domain Array.

The effects of these formations are, respectively, isolating aura, suppressing spiritual power, sealing space, and obliterating souls.

However, Wu Nanzhi had never seen the next formation before. Li Chen spent a lot of time setting up seven interlocking formations that covered the entire palace.

Then, just to be on the safe side, Li Chen used golden energy to refine all the powerful mechanisms and treasures in the vicinity, and also had Wu Nanzhi carry Qiu Xianyu back to the palace, leaving no detail overlooked.

Originally, when Wu Nanzhi first came here, she felt that this place was very dangerous.

But when she came here again, she had no such worries at all. She felt that what Li Chen had prepared was enough to kill the Dragon Emperor more than ten times over.

All dangers stem from insufficient preparation. If one is well-prepared, Li Chen is far more dangerous than the Dragon Emperor.

Seeing that preparations were almost complete, Li Chen approached the Supreme Dragon Coffin.

As expected, the Supreme Dragon Coffin emitted a series of buzzing sounds as he approached.

It seems to sense danger and is activating the terrifying entity within.

The moment the coffin lid was removed, the seven formations set up by Li Chen roared simultaneously.

The Dragon Emperor's eyelashes had barely trembled when his fate was instantly sealed by the Nine Nether Soul Suppressing Array, and the Zhou Tian Star Dou Spirit-Binding Array and the Void Shackle Domain Array began to seal off the surrounding energy.

Li Chen personally activated the Heavenly Dao Slaughtering Array and two other attack arrays to bombard the Dragon Emperor inside the coffin.

Before the Dragon Emperor could even awaken, his body was blasted apart inch by inch by a powerful opponent of the same level using an array, turning him into dust.

The Heavenly Gang Dragon Locking Formation fed the dissipated dragon energy into the talisman in Li Chen's hand.

When the supreme dragon body turned to ashes, the bronze chains binding the coffin didn't even have time to break. The Dragon Emperor's natal magic treasures tried to protect it, but Li Chen locked them tightly.

It can be said that the Dragon Emperor considered the dangers of his resurrection and took several precautions.

Unexpectedly, the people who came to his grave were of similar rank and had made more preparations than he had.

Li Chen collected the Dragon Emperor's ashes into the bottle and drew eighty-one talismans on the bottle's mouth. This marked the initial completion of the suppression of the Dragon Emperor.
