Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 525 - 308: I’m Really Sorry, I Wrote Quite a Bit_1
Murong Xue'er was experiencing close contact with a man for the first time. Previously, as the personal maid of the Great Yue Empress, she was often embraced and held by the Yue Emperor, but no matter how they cuddled in the past, she had never felt the strange sensations she did today.
She had thought it would be no different from her embraces with the Yue Emperor, believing she wouldn't feel any discomfort.
But today she discovered that she herself had become somewhat odd, her entire body blazing hot, her heart pounding faster and faster, and all her skill seemed to become chaotic. She had absolutely no strength to push away the man standing before her.
Murong Xue'er was quickly bewildered by Lu Chen's kiss, having no idea what she was doing.
In her dazed state, she thought she heard the sound of tearing, followed by the sensation of something.
The next moment, Murong Xue'er's eyebrows sharply furrowed, and she could only let out muffled "mmph mmph" sounds.
…
Meanwhile.
In the Imperial Palace of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Sum Emperor sat on the dragon throne, listening to the report from a Shadow Guard inside the room.
After a moment, he asked, "Has the Zhao King already defeated the Ren Prince's army?"
The Shadow Guard in the room replied, "Yes, the Ren Prince's army has been completely scattered, and many soldiers have chosen to surrender to the Zhao King. The Zhao King now commands at least three hundred thousand troops."
The corners of the Sum Emperor's mouth lifted slightly, and then he said, "Good, the time has come."
With that, he instructed the Shadow Guard in the room, "Immediately spread the news that the State Preceptor has entered the Pseudo-Celestial Realm and will soon break through to the true Heavenly Human Realm. Once the State Preceptor breaks into the Heavenly Human Realm, he can use a special method to extend my life, and there's even a possibility of my full recovery."
The Shadow Guard promptly responded, "Yes!"
"I shall take my leave."
As the Shadow Guard's figure gradually merged into the darkness, the Sum Emperor muttered to himself, "If Chen doesn't fall for it, then I shall personally head north. I hope Chen does not disappoint me."
"In no more than one year, I shall break through to the true Heavenly Human Realm. At that time, Great Xia will have no rivals!"
The Zhao King's actions have already begun, and it won't be long before all the seigniors muster their armies and march toward the capital city. It's almost time to draw in the net.
The Sum Emperor was very confident in his current self, as if he had already seen the future when nations would come to pay homage and envoys from great dynasties would tremble before him.
At this very moment.
In Zhao Country.
The Zhao King's bedchamber.
The Zhao King was resting when a dark figure suddenly appeared behind a pillar in the bedchamber. The Zhao King's eyes shot open.
The next moment, a letter flew towards the Zhao King, who immediately raised his hand to catch it, then carefully read through it.
The shadow then spoke, "If this plan succeeds, Your Majesty will use the Sacred Artifact of the Mysterious Moon Palace to elevate your skill to the Grandmaster Realm."
The Zhao King immediately replied, "Please tell Yi that I will spare no expense in helping him achieve his dominance!"
As the Zhao King's voice fell, the figure once again merged into the shadows.
Feeling the departure of the figure, the Zhao King shredded the letter in his hand, then tossed it into the brazier in the room.
"It seems Yi is nearly ready. If his plan succeeds this time, there will no longer be any seigniors in Great Xia."
With that, the Zhao King sighed, "It seems I too must prepare; once the war is over, I shall relinquish my military authority."
"Although we are born of the same mother, people's hearts always change..." freёnovelkiss.com
The Zhao King was acutely aware of the true strength of the Sum Emperor, which is why he had never thought of wrestling that position away from him, especially since the two of them were brothers of the same mother.
Although brotherly affection is rare among royal siblings, often virtually nonexistent, the memory of the Sum Emperor caring for him in their youth still aroused some gratitude in the Zhao King.
The Zhao King was actually reluctant to part with his power, but he was very clear about what kind of person his elder brother, the Sum Emperor, was.
Growing up together, he was familiar with his elder brother's ideals; his elder brother would stop at nothing to achieve them.
Being a blood brother of the Sum Emperor, the Zhao King ultimately chose to stand by his side.
...
North Country.
Hundred Flowers Tower, third floor.
Murong Xue'er's voice undulated, rising and falling. Though she tried to contain it, she couldn't fully suppress her sounds.
At that moment, Murong Xue'er was sprawled across the writing desk, while Lu Chen picked up a brush. As he busied himself with his work, he wrote characters on Murong Xue'er's snowy white back.
The tip of the brush, infused with Lu Chen's spiritual power, traced over Murong Xue'er's back, eliciting an unspeakable, strange sensation within her. She felt her body becoming increasingly peculiar.
Then, Murong Xue'er asked, "Prince... Prince, what are you writing... ah... writing on my back?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Guess?"
Murong Xue'er replied, "It's a pity it's on the back, I... ah... can't see it..."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "That's easy to fix."
He then turned Murong Xue'er's body around, laying her on the desk.
In the next moment, Murong Xue'er and Lu Chen locked gazes. Her hair was disheveled, her bun had come undone, her usually cool cheeks were flushed red, and she was exuding charm.
Murong Xue'er looked down slightly, only to see a scene she did not wish to see. At that moment, Lu Chen dipped his brush into the ink and started to write on Murong Xue'er's abdomen, asking as he wrote, "Right, once your Virgin Mark has disappeared and the Yue Emperor checks for it upon your return, won't you be punished?"
Hearing this, Murong Xue'er laughed and said, "Prince, you've already removed my Virgin Mark, and now you remember to worry about this? Isn't it a bit late?"
Lu Chen chuckled, then replied, "Indeed."
"How about this? Since you have to be checked by the Yue Emperor for the Virgin Mark when you return, why not just stay here in North Country?"
Murong Xue'er said, "Is the Prince planning to keep me here in North Country as your concubine?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen pressed harder with the brush tip, inscribing three characters onto Murong Xue'er's abdomen.
Murong Xue'er felt a jolt run through her body as if she were electrified. She propped up her upper body slightly to look at the characters on her abdomen.
Muttering to herself, Murong Xue'er said, "Flesh... Prince, do these three characters have any... hmm... special meaning?"
Lu Chen put the brush back on the inkstone and, with a smile, said, "You'll soon understand what they mean."
Then Lu Chen reached under Murong Xue'er's back, lifting her body with ease. After all, as a Grandmaster, even a cannon dressed in red robes could be lifted with one hand, so the weight of a woman was nothing to him.
Murong Xue'er was taken aback and quickly wrapped her legs around Lu Chen's waist to avoid falling. Then she hung on him as he carried her to the bed.
...
Towards evening.
Lu Chen got up and glanced over at Murong Xue'er in the bed, as well as the characters written all over her. Although the ink would blur when mixed with perspiration, because Lu Chen had used spiritual power to fix the ink, the characters were quite clear.
Lu Chen straightened his clothes and said with a smile to Murong Xue'er, "Miss Murong, my apologies for having written so much. It will trouble you to wash it off."
Murong Xue'er lay collapsed on the bed, speaking weakly, "No harm done, Prince, please take your leave. I'm afraid I can't see you out."
Lu Chen smiled, then left the study satisfied.
