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

Chu Yuqin sighed and said, "Ah, the things Chen’er is doing are becoming more and more incomprehensible to me. I can only hope that all this won’t lead to any problems."

Chu Yuqin felt that as Lu Chen grew up, she could no longer keep up with his thinking. In the past, it was she who taught Lu Chen how to act, but now, Lu Chen had his own ideas, and many of the things he did seemed very radical to her, somewhat inappropriate.

However, Chu Yuqin did not interfere in Lu Chen’s affairs, after all, Lu Chen had grown up.

At this moment, Chu Yuqin wondered if she was too conservative and therefore couldn’t understand what Lu Chen was doing.

...

The long night would eventually pass.

At dawn, the sky was still dim.

Xue Linglong stood by the bed, getting dressed while looking at Lu Chen lying there.

Lu Chen had once again become controlled by the Charming Skill, his eyes vacant, looking like a puppet.

Xue Linglong, thinking about the events of the previous night, clenched her teeth and tightened her fists in anger. After glancing over Lu Chen’s entire body, she said viciously, "Dare treat me this way, see if I don’t cut you down!"

Despite her words, Xue Linglong took no action.

Xue Linglong then sighed deeply; she touched her lower abdomen, noting that her strength had indeed increased significantly.

"This shouldn’t be just the effect of the Goddess Skill. I’ve never heard of the Goddess Skill having such a good effect."

"It seems this guy really is the Son of Destiny!"

Xue Linglong was completely unaware that the cultivation technique they practiced last night was not the Goddess Skill but the Dragon-Phenix Yin-Yang Spell. Her consciousness had been blurred yesterday, so how could she know what cultivation technique they had used.

After getting dressed, Xue Linglong did not leave immediately. She bent down and looked attentively at Lu Chen’s handsome face.

"Strange, why did this guy lose control last night?"

Xue Linglong still didn’t understand; according to logic, since she controlled Lu Chen, he should have been very obedient to her. Whatever she told him to do, that’s what he should have done.

Instead, he turned fierce, completely disregarding her commands, and she thought she might have lost her life.

"Could it be because of the Charming Skill?"

"Hmm, it should be."

"Certainly, I must have completely drawn out his inner desires, which is what led him to focus solely on that act, completely ignoring my commands."

Finding a reasonable explanation for Lu Chen’s loss of control the night before made Xue Linglong feel much better.

She scanned Lu Chen’s body again and muttered to herself, "No wonder Mu Zixuan said that all the women in the Prince’s Mansion combined are no match for you."

"Truly a disaster!"

Having said that, Xue Linglong fell into deep thought.

What should she do next?

Although she had temporarily controlled Lu Chen using the Charm Skill, she still couldn’t take him away now. After all, the Palace Master from the Mysterious Moon Palace and that Celestial from the Mysterious Moon Palace were very likely still in Yan County. If she acted rashly, she would most certainly be discovered by the Celestial from the Mysterious Moon Palace.

Lu Chen was an important pawn of the Mysterious Moon Palace; they certainly kept a close watch on him and would not let him leave Yan County.

It seems that taking Lu Chen away required more careful planning.

Thinking this, Xue Linglong’s gaze moved down to look at the plum blossoms on the bed, then she coldly said, "Lucky you!"

"Just live a few more days!"

Xue Linglong thought to herself, letting this guy live a little longer, afterwards she could continue to use the Goddess Skill for cultivation.

Now raising her delicate hand, she turned Lu Chen’s face toward her and gazed into his eyes, seductively saying, "Look into my eyes, you forcibly claimed my body last night, you feel very guilty in your heart, and want to compensate me with everything..."

As Xue Linglong’s words fell, Lu Chen murmured, "I claimed Linglong’s body last night; I must do everything to compensate her..."

Hearing these words from Lu Chen’s mouth, Xue Linglong felt very satisfied inside, just needing to wait for Lu Chen to wake up; in the future, he would surely be entirely obedient to her.

Xue Linglong said, "Alright, continue sleeping."

Lu Chen promptly closed his eyes, feigning sleep.

Xue Linglong straightened up, ready to leave. Yet before departing, she couldn’t help but glance at Lu Chen once more.

Gazing at the man who had bewildered her all night, Xue Linglong exhaled softly, "I must be mad..."

As the words fell, Xue Linglong left reluctantly, heading toward the doorway.

After Xue Linglong had left the room, Lu Chen opened his eyes, a slight smile curving the corners of his mouth, and then he opened the system interface. Continue reading at empire

[Congratulations, host, for obtaining a wife, rewarded with the Primary Puppet Skill.]

[Host has cultivated affection with the wife once, Qi Refinement Mantra experience points add...]

Seeing the reward he had received, Lu Chen was momentarily stunned. The Primary Puppet Skill?

This must also be a Cultivation Technique of the Immortal world?

A moment later, knowledge of the Puppetry Technique filled Lu Chen’s mind.

The Primary Puppet Skill could only use Spirit Wood as the material to refine puppets. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Spirit Wood, where to find Spirit Wood?

At that moment, Lu Chen had a flash of insight. Wasn’t the Dragon Phoenix Tree a kind of Spirit Plant? They had cut many branches from the Dragon Phoenix Tree when they transplanted it, and those branches were still stored in the warehouse of the North Prince Mansion.

Lu Chen thought to himself, thankfully he had the foresight not to burn those branches. Considering the Dragon Phoenix Tree was a Spirit Plant, he figured the branches might be useful in the future. So he had them stored and sealed in one of the warehouses.

Next, all he needed was to find some craftsmen to work on those branches, shaping them into the form of wooden figures, and then he could apply the Puppetry Technique to those figures.

With that thought in mind, Lu Chen immediately rose from the bed, ready to test what the Puppetry Technique could do.

However, at that moment, Lu Chen’s gaze was captured by the plum blossoms on the bed, recalling last night’s events.

Lu Chen chuckled and said to himself, "A vixen’s body truly is different from that of an ordinary person."

It seemed he would be in for a treat in the future.

Without giving it much thought, Lu Chen called for the maid, got dressed with her assistance, and headed to Wind Cloud Court.

Mu Zixuan was at Wind Cloud Court’s small paddy field, intently observing the Spirit Rice. Seeing Lu Chen walking into the yard with a spring in his step, she greeted him with a smile, "Congratulations, Prince, on acquiring another beauty."

Lu Chen walked directly behind Mu Zixuan, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and rested his head on her fragrant shoulder, saying, "All thanks to my beloved concubine."

"My beloved, what are you watching so intently this early?"

Mu Zixuan answered, "Prince, the rice you planted seems to have matured."

Hearing this, Lu Chen’s attention shifted to the Spirit Rice.

The Spirit Rice had indeed turned yellow, and observing the full panicles, Lu Chen was surprised. He hadn’t paid much attention to the Spirit Rice recently and didn’t expect it to have already matured. Furthermore, the panicles of the Spirit Rice were more plentiful and filled out than those of ordinary rice.

Lu Chen released Mu Zixuan’s soft body, bent down, and picked a grain of rice in his hand.

Then, he carefully peeled off the husk and tossed the Spirit Rice into his mouth to taste.

The moment the Spirit Rice entered his mouth, Lu Chen immediately felt invigorated, his body so light it seemed transformed.

But that wasn’t all. The Spiritual Power within him also expanded several-fold, and he felt as though a certain restriction in his body was preventing him from breaking through.

Lu Chen realized instantly that this restriction must be the Celestial’s, preventing him from breaking through until he unified the entire world.

This Spirit Rice might not be of much use to him now, but if given to his wives or subordinates, their realms could elevate quickly.

No wonder the system sent him just three catties of Spirit Rice seeds; the impact was significant, with obvious effects.

Moreover, the Spirit Rice matured very quickly, with three harvests possible in a year, and the yield was not small. At this rate, it wouldn’t take long for three catties to turn into three thousand catties.
