The Fate of the Star Luo Empire!

"Creak..."

Just as Qian Renxue woke up and stretched, the gates of the Swan Palace suddenly opened, and a tall, slender figure bathed in golden light slowly walked into the hall.

Faced with this scene, Qian Renxue did not scream like an ordinary woman, nor did she panic. Instead, she calmly leaned against the headboard, looked at the golden figure, and said with a light laugh, "I did not know that His Nation Protecting Prince would grace us with his presence. I, Renxue, have failed to greet you properly."

"Haha, it seems Your Angel God has been having a good time these past few days."

A clear laugh rang out, and a golden figure slowly walked to Qian Renxue's bedside. It was Zhou Chen, who had Soaring Cloud Riding Mist back from Sea God Island.

As soon as Zhou Chen returned to Heaven Dou City, he immediately went to see Qian Renxue.

This is certainly not because Qian Renxue is beautiful, but because of the appearance of the God of Food God and the Nine-Colored Goddess.

After surrendering, the couple quickly lost all sense of decency and revealed the entire scheme of the God Realm Committee. Upon learning that the Divine Realm had even ordered the God of Speed to rescue the Angel God, Yu Tianmeng became somewhat uneasy, fearing that Qian Renxue had already escaped.

Yu Tianmeng wanted to investigate Qian Renxue's movements, but she had neither the incantation of the Nine Heavens Divine Restriction Array nor the ability to control the Xuanyuan Sword. Therefore, she could only dispatch royal retainers of the title Douluo level, such as Meng Shenji and Xue Shan, to strengthen surveillance.

Just then, Zhou Chen returned to Heaven Dou City. After hearing Yu Tianmeng's story, the cautious Zhou Chen immediately went to check on Qian Renxue.

"Doing well? Your Highness must be joking! Renxue's divine power is sealed, and her movements are restricted. How could she be doing well?"

Qian Renxue's smile vanished, replaced by a sorrowful expression. Her golden eyes instantly filled with tears, as if she were about to burst into tears at any moment.

Zhou Chen: "..."

Well, that acting is really good; he'd definitely win Little Gold Man.

No wonder Qian Renxue was able to impersonate Xue Qinghe for so many years.

However, as a time traveler, Zhou Chen has plenty of ways to deal with such a skilled actress.

He simply stared at Qian Renxue's performance with a stern face, a cold expression, and icy eyes.

It all comes down to who has the thickest skin.

If you're not embarrassed, then it's others who are embarrassed.

Sure enough, seeing that Zhou Chen didn't care whether she cried or not, Qian Renxue immediately felt extremely embarrassed.

After all, the worst thing about acting is when the audience doesn't care at all, and the actors are just awkwardly performing on stage.

"A straight man who doesn't know how to cherish women!"

Qian Renxue pouted. Since her acting failed, she had no choice but to drop the pretense. Her beautiful eyes, which had been filled with tears, instantly became clear, leaving Zhou Chen dumbfounded.

Good heavens, I mean good heavens! Where did your tears go? Did they evaporate so quickly?

"Alright, Qian Renxue, since you can cry and laugh, then I won't bother you any longer."

Having achieved his purpose of investigation, Zhou Chen was unwilling to linger and turned to leave.

Just then, Qian Renxue suddenly straightened up, stretched out her two fair and delicate arms, and hugged Zhou Chen's waist from behind.

"Please don't leave so soon, okay?"

Qian Renxue said in a low voice.

These days, Qian Renxue has been living in darkness, feeling extremely lonely and desolate.

Therefore, Qian Renxue was very happy when Zhou Chen came to investigate her.

In particular, Zhou Chen was the person she liked.

Although Zhou Chen defeated and sealed her, Qian Renxue remained true to her original intentions and even grew to like Zhou Chen more and more.

If Qian Renxue were also a time traveler, she would know that this is a symptom of Stockholm syndrome.

Her performance just now was more like her being coquettish.

As Zhou Chen prepared to leave, Qian Renxue felt an overwhelming sense of loss. So much so that she disregarded her dignity and embraced Zhou Chen, pressing her full breasts and delicate head tightly against his strong back.

Feeling the warm, smooth, and elastic touch on his back, Zhou Chen suddenly realized that his heart wasn't as hard as he had imagined.

Okay, he is indeed a bit lecherous.

However, Zhou Chen felt that this was a completely normal physiological reaction.

As a normal male, it's only natural that his hormone levels would surge after a beautiful woman took the initiative to get close to him, making it difficult to suppress his inner desires and causing him to be unable to move away.

Moreover, Qian Renxue's appearance and figure are simply impeccable, making her an irresistible beauty that any normal man would find hard to resist.

"Um... Qian Renxue, please have some self-respect."

Zhou Chen said sternly and righteously.

However, he neither broke free from Qian Renxue's jade-like arm nor moved his feet; he simply spoke with righteous indignation.

"You're interested."

Qian Renxue chuckled softly, as if encouraged, and pressed her entire upper body against Zhou Chen, her jade arms wrapping around him even tighter.

"Qian Renxue, you're playing with fire."

Zhou Chen continued his righteous and indignant speech, but he felt his heart beating a little faster, and his little Zhou Chen was also showing signs of rising.

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue smiled smugly, slightly raising her head and resting her delicate, snow-white chin on Zhou Chen's shoulder. She parted her small, red lips and breathed hot air into Zhou Chen's ear, saying in a seductive, soft voice, "I'm ready, so come on!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen felt his blood boil, and even his strong will began to crumble.

"Ah! What are you doing?!"

Suddenly, an angry scream interrupted Zhou Chen and Qian Renxue's impending intimacy.

Xue Ke, dressed in a golden dress, draped in a golden-red cloak, and wearing Golden Diamond Radiant Sky Crown, was staring at Qian Renxue and Zhou Chen with fiery eyes. Her pretty face was completely out of control.

Upon hearing Xue Ke's scream, Yu Tianmeng, who had accompanied her, thought that Qian Renxue wanted to assassinate Xue Ke. In a panic, she moved slightly and came into the house from outside.

"How..."

Before she could finish her question, Yu Tianmeng's gaze fell on Qian Renxue and Zhou Chen, who were embracing each other. Her expression quickly shifted from anxiety to shock, from shock to anger, and then from anger to numbness.

OK!

I sent you here to check on Qian Renxue's situation, and what did you do? You actually got involved with this jerk in such a short time!

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, so awkward that it felt like the air itself was about to freeze!

At this moment, Qian Renxue was the first to react after her initial shock.

Her pretty face flushed red, and she quickly pulled the blanket over her head, trying to avoid seeing it.

But in doing so, her two smooth, straight, and fair legs were exposed.

Originally, a film queen with such superb acting skills as Qian Renxue would not have been afraid of being caught in bed with another man.

However, Xue Ke was, after all, her father and brother's killer, and being witnessed by her enemy still made Qian Renxue feel somewhat embarrassed.

Moreover, and most importantly, Qian Renxue's divine power has been sealed. At this moment, she's weaker than even an ordinary Soul Master. What if Xue Ke gets angry and decides to beat her up?

Therefore, Qian Renxue quickly and silently crawled into the quilt.

Seeing that Qian Renxue was covered, Xue Ke suddenly woke up.

She first glared at Zhou Chen with a sharp, knife-like gaze, then rolled up her sleeves, revealing her two snow-white arms, and angrily walked to the bedside, intending to lift the covers and drag Qian Renxue out.

As Soul Saint- level expert, Xue Ke was confident that she could beat the sealed Qian Renxue to death!

However, this idea is rather arrogant.

Regardless, Qian Renxue is a god-level powerhouse after all. Her body has long been energyized, has no vital points, and is almost impossible for humans to kill.

Even Peerless Douluo couldn't kill Qian Renxue, whose divine power had been sealed.

Seeing that Qian Renxue was about to be dragged out of bed and beaten, Zhou Chen quickly exchanged a glance with Yu Tianmeng, signaling Yu Tianmeng to stop Xue Ke.

He was also thinking of recruiting Qian Renxue, the Angel God, as a top combat force for the Heaven Dou Empire!

If Xue Ke really beat up Qian Renxue on the spot while she was only wearing pajamas, then Qian Renxue would be socially dead.

In that case, Qian Renxue would be extremely ashamed and indignant, and would never compromise with them.

Yu Tianmeng glared at her husband, but considering the bigger picture, she quickly pulled Xue Ke aside and advised:

"Ke'er, that's enough, it's not that bad, calm down, calm down..."

"How can we just let it go?!"

Xue Ke's eyebrows furrowed, and she was so angry she almost cried. "That Qian Renxue is too wicked, too shameless! She killed my father and still wants to seduce my husband..."

"Sister Xue Ke, I won't accept that!"

Qian Renxue suddenly poked her head out from under the covers, looked at Xue Ke, and sneered, "His Highness the Prince and I are mutually in love, and we couldn't help ourselves, do you understand?"

"Shut up and go back to your place!"

Zhou Chen interrupted Qian Renxue's attempt to add fuel to the fire, pressing her head back under the covers. He then looked at Xue Ke and said seriously, "Ke'er, I have nothing to do with her. What happened just now was just..."

"Just what? Did she seduce you?"

Xue Ke's eyes were filled with tears. If she hadn't been an emperor for so long and was able to barely control her emotions, she would have almost burst into tears.

"It's clearly mutual affection, how can it be called seduction?"

Qian Renxue crawled out of bed once again, this time not only her head but her entire body.

Immediately afterwards, she crumpled the quilt into a large ball and placed it on her fair and slender thighs, pressing the quilt down with her elbows and resting her chin on her wrists, and said in a slightly mocking tone, "Sister Xue Ke, men all like beautiful women with good figures. Your chest, which looks like it's been run over by a carriage, probably doesn't attract men."

"Why are you so talkative? Shut up!"

Zhou Chen suddenly shouted coldly, and a golden Soul Ring slowly rose from beneath his feet.

The next second, Qian Renxue realized that she couldn't open her mouth or make a sound.

This is the Soul Skill that Zhou Chen just activated— By the By Heaven's Mandate, the Yellow Emperor's Decrees.

The function of this Soul Skill is to issue a divine decree to any living or non-living being, forcibly compelling the other party to obey.

Of course, activating this Soul Skill requires spending some Gold Soul Coins.

If Qian Renxue still possessed the strength of First-Level God, the required Gold Soul Coins would undoubtedly be an astronomical unit. However, since she has now been sealed, the amount of Gold Soul Coins she consumes is significantly reduced.

After Zhou Chen used his Soul Skill to shut Qian Renxue up, he immediately felt that Xue Ke's angry eyes softened and calmed down.

Calmness doesn't mean she's not angry; perhaps Xue Ke is just hiding her anger deep inside.

Especially now that Xue Ke is the emperor, she is exposed to all sorts of manipulative tactics every day, and her cunning is becoming increasingly deep, almost unfathomable.

Therefore, Zhou Chen carefully considered his words and said softly, "Ke'er, I..."

"My lord, I have come here to quickly incorporate the Purple Pearl Pirate Group into the Empire Fleet, so as to facilitate future attacks on the Star Luo Empire."

Xue Ke stopped mentioning Qian Renxue and instead changed the subject, talking about important imperial matters.

"Zi Zhenzhu, come in."

Yu Tianmeng, who was standing to the side, clapped her hands at the opportune moment and said.

The next second, the usually fiery Zi Zhenzhu walked in with her head bowed and eyes lowered.

She had changed out of her pirate outfit, which could barely cover her delicate figure, into the standard imperial guard armor of the Heaven Dou Empire. The armor was exquisitely crafted and shimmered with gold, which only accentuated her heroic and dashing appearance.

Previously on Purple Pearl Island, after subduing Zi Zhenzhu, Zhou Chen Soaring Cloud Riding Mist, carrying Zi Zhenzhu and Xiao Bai, traversing most of the Heaven Dou Empire, and returned to Heaven Dou City.

After learning about the situation of the human and the beast, Xue Ke appointed Xiao Bai as Royal Tribute of the empire, completely disregarding the fact that Xiao Bai's true form was Sea Soul Beast called the Demon Spirit Great White Shark.

In order to win over Xiao Bai and make him a loyal henchman of the royal family, Xue Ke ordered the construction of a huge artificial saltwater lake as Xiao Bai's habitat.

As for Zi Zhenzhu, Xue Ke didn't pay much attention to her at first. A mere Soul Emperor was not worthy of her attention as the Tiandou Empire Empress.

However, when Xue Ke learned that Zi Zhenzhu was the leader of a pirate group that ravaged the coast of Vast Sea City, and that she had a large number of warships and pirates who were familiar with the water, she immediately began to take her seriously.

Because Yu Tianmeng had already discussed a battle plan with her to attack the Star Luo Empire.

The battle plan was to attack by sea, not by land, but by building a large number of warships, training sailors, transporting a large army, and attacking directly along the coastline!

This approach not only bypasses the heavily fortified Star Luo Empire's numerous fortresses and cities, avoiding a brutal, meat-grinding battle, but also prevents the Spirit Hall from providing timely assistance to the Star Luo Empire.

Most importantly, as the military classics say, "Strike unexpectedly, attack where the enemy is unprepared." By attacking by sea, we can strike a blow into the heartland of the Star Luo Empire, a region with weak defenses but a thriving economy, catching them completely off guard!

At that time, as long as Zhou Chen takes action to entangle the Rakshasa God Bi Bi Dong who is coming to the rescue, and Yu Tianmeng deals with the Evil Eye Saint King, they can easily break through the weak defenses of Star Luo City and take the opportunity to destroy the entire Star Luo Empire.

The plan was excellent, but the problem was that the Heaven Dou Empire's fleet was far from sufficient for a long-range military transport and escort mission.

Even if we start building warships and training sailors now, it will take many years.

However, with the Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire on the verge of war, and the Douluo God Realm watching closely, it's impossible to slowly prepare a fleet.

Therefore, Xue Ke was overjoyed when Zi Zhenzhu, the pirate leader with a large fleet and sailors, defected to her.
