Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

"Her Highness advises you best not think of entering the foggy zone. Within that zone, Celestials are nothing at all."

Upon hearing these words from Wu Junwan, Lu Chen felt a jolt in his heart.

Celestials are nothing at all?

Had the time finally come when Grandmasters were less than dogs and Celestials roamed everywhere?

However, this was not surprising. Yun Xianxian had told him during her last visit to the North Prince Mansion that this world was merely a Lower World, one that could not sustain too many powerful beings, which is why Celestials were basically considered Immortals here.

Curious, Lu Chen asked, "If the people in the foggy zone consider Celestials as nothing, why haven't they left the zone and directly occupied the major dynasties?"

Wu Junwan said, "The specific reason is unclear to Her Highness as well, but it seems there are some restrictions that prevent them from leaving the foggy zone. My master mentioned that her ability to leave the foggy zone was also coincidental."

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen continued, "Then why did your master eventually send you back?"

Wu Junwan said indifferently, "Because she saw that we had not let go of our worldly desires and had no intention of staying in her sect, so she simply sent us back when the restrictions loosened."

Lu Chen said, "I see."

Right then, Wu Junwan rose from her chair and walked towards the bed. As she walked, she said, "Since Her Highness has told you about the foggy zone, you should keep your word from earlier. It's time for you to leave."

No sooner had Wu Junwan finished speaking than a pair of strong arms wrapped around her slender waist from behind. At her ear, Lu Chen now said, "I only said I wouldn't sleep here tonight; I didn't say I would leave right away."

At these words, Wu Junwan's mind reeled, and then she said angrily, "You! You're breaking your promise!"

Lu Chen chuckled, "How have I broken my promise? I just said I wouldn't sleep here tonight. So, if I don't sleep, isn't that fine?"

"With a great beauty like you here, it's impossible for me to sleep."

No sooner had Lu Chen finished speaking than he pushed Wu Junwan onto the bed and immediately pressed down on her. Wu Junwan tried to struggle a bit, only to discover that her skill was restrained within her body, just like when Lu Chen had held her earlier that day.

It dawned on Wu Junwan that, as long as this young man made contact with her body, her skill would be restrained, unable to circulate.

Could this guy have placed some Incantation Skill on her?

Having cultivated for so many years in the Misty Immortal Sect, she had some understanding of incantations. Both the Yue Emperor and she had learned quite a few, though she rarely used them and had forgotten some.

Thinking this, Wu Junwan was certain: this must be some kind of incantation. No wonder this man dared to treat her that way, even daring to let her live in the inner courtyard. It turned out he had used some incantation on her.

The thought of possibly being cursed by Lu Chen's magic, Wu Junwan simply stopped struggling and let Lu Chen's hands roam freely over her body.

However, she was not just going to lie there and take it. She then asked, "The mysterious weapon of North Country must be related to the foggy zone, otherwise you wouldn't be so interested in it."

As Lu Chen pulled off Wu Junwan's embroidered shoes and toyed with her body, he replied, "I have no connection with the foggy zone. I'm just worried that one day an enemy with power beyond my understanding will come from the west, so I plan to prepare in advance."

"Knowing both oneself and the enemy, one can be more easily victorious in battle."

"Great Wu suffered such a defeat this time because it did not understand North Country at all, and didn't even know the power of the weapons used by North Country before rashly sending troops."

Wu Junwan spoke up, "You really don't need to worry..."

Feeling Lu Chen's hands all over her, Wu Junwan cut herself off with a startled cry, biting down on her teeth hard to steady her emotions. After a moment, she managed to say, "The foggy zone has restrictions; those inside can't possibly come out. There is no need for you to worry at all."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I don't believe that restriction will always be effective. Since you and the Yue Emperor were able to enter and even come out of the foggy zone, and even your master came out from there, it shows that the restriction has significant flaws."

"Or perhaps that restriction could be broken. If one day it were to be broken and powerful enemies from the foggy zone emerged, and North Country was completely unprepared, wouldn't it mean only becoming slaves of a defeated country?"

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Wu Junwan found some reason in his words, prompting a slight change in her view of him.

Who would have thought this lecherous young man still had some merits, and knew to be wary even in times of safety.

Wu Junwan said, "Even if the people inside the foggy zone really do come out, even if you are well-prepared, you won't stand a chance against them."

"Take the Misty Immortal Sect where I was once a part of – the lowest Cultivators in the sect are all Celestials. Not to mention whether North Country has any Celestials at all, even if you do have some, how could one or two Celestials stand a chance against the Misty Immortal Sect?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen's hands momentarily stopped their movements. He did not respond immediately. What Wu Junwan said made sense; if the forces from the foggy zone truly broke their so-called restrictions and descended upon this world, it would indeed be a devastating one-sided assault.
