"Y-you, don't come any closer!"
"Do you know who I am?"
"I'm..."
For some reason, held fast by this unfamiliar man, Ju Zi now felt something besides fear.
A kind of excitement, a kind of loneliness, and an indescribable tug of attraction between a man and a woman.
Perhaps even the empress herself had not realized it.
She was desperately starved for affection.
Before others, she was the lofty empress of the Sun Moon Empire.
But in reality?
That bastard Xu Tianran had no manly capabilities at all. He was practically a eunuch.
He had even lost the ability to produce descendants for the Sun Moon Empire.
Living with a man like that...
The torment Ju Zi endured as a young woman in the prime of her youth was easy to imagine.
At this moment, Luo Feng looked domineering.
Yet he knew exactly when to stop.
At least he had not hurt her.
Instead, the aura of strength and youthful vitality coming from him...
Sent Ju Zi's heart swinging like a restless monkey, her thoughts galloping like a wild horse.
She even found herself wanting to move closer.
Luo Feng seemed to sense this too.
So he brought his lips close to Ju Zi's earlobe and murmured like a devil.
"Of course I know you're the empress of the Sun Moon Empire!"
"And I know a few things outsiders don't. Want to hear them?"
For some reason...
Ju Zi, who should have been struggling fiercely, felt his masculine presence...
And a tingling sensation spread through her entire body.
Had her will not resisted so fiercely, she might have gone limp in Luo Feng's arms.
"W-what are you trying to say?"
"Heh, stop pretending, Miss Ju Zi!"
"Living with an impotent man like Xu Tianran, that imperial palace must be a prison to you!"
What?
This was an absolute secret of the Sun Moon Empire.
Even the old emperor had not known.
But how could this man know?
Seeing Ju Zi's expression...
Luo Feng knew his words had struck home.
"Miss Ju Zi, what if the whole world learned that you, the empress of the Sun Moon Empire, were still a virgin?"
"Do you think that would unleash a storm of blood throughout your empire?"
Seeing that he now had her firmly in his grasp...
Luo Feng slowly released Ju Zi's neck.
But he stripped her of all her armor and soul tools.
"W-what nonsense are you spouting?"
"Nonsense?"
"Really?"
"How dare you! Y-you're making baseless accusations! I will never submit to you!"
This woman...
She simply refused to admit anything.
Even though her secret had been completely exposed...
Ju Zi gritted her teeth and refused to concede.
"Heh, then it seems we'll have to invite the empress of the Sun Moon Empire on a little tour of our Heaven Dou Empire!"
Seeing this...
Luo Feng did not want to waste any more words.
Although abducting an empress would not be enough to force the Sun Moon Empire to withdraw...
Handled properly, it could certainly plunge the entire Sun Moon Empire into serious internal turmoil.
This approach might have been a little excessive.
But if it succeeded, it would spare countless lives from devastation!
Whoosh!
The next moment, ignoring Ju Zi's resistance...
Luo Feng took his captive through two consecutive teleportations, swiftly appearing a hundred li away.
This was the Heaven Dou Empire's military camp at the very front.
Although they had yet to clash directly with the Sun Moon Empire...
Swords were already drawn, bows pulled taut.
There was a guard every three paces and a hidden sentry every five.
The instant Luo Feng appeared, a squad of soldiers equipped with flying soul tools flew over to meet him.
"The commander-in-chief is back!"
"Who's this?"
Everyone had originally thought Luo Feng had merely gone to scout the enemy.
But when these soldiers saw the mature, orange-haired beauty before them, their eyes widened.
"Could this be the empress of the Sun Moon Empire?"
"No way! General Luo Feng captured the enemy empress?"
Soon, the news spread throughout the Heaven Dou Empire.
Even the neighboring Dou Ling Empire and Star Luo Empire received invitations.
Luo Feng specifically invited representatives of the other empires' imperial families.
He said he had a surprise for everyone.
If they used it well, they could force the Sun Moon Empire to withdraw.
"What's going on?"
"Luo Feng, what exactly are you planning?"
Soon, Princess Vina of the Heaven Dou Empire arrived at the front.
Princess Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire also came at his invitation.
Meanwhile, with their commander-in-chief captured, the opposing Sun Moon Empire forces...
Had already descended into chaos.
Without several senior commanders keeping the troops in line, a mutiny might have broken out.
"Everyone, I'm glad you could all come!"
"The news I'm about to announce may be rather explosive!"
"So I'd like you all to serve as witnesses!"
As Luo Feng finished speaking...
His wife Nan Qiuqiu, his concubine Ma Xiaotao, and his mother-in-law Nan Shuishui emerged, their faces filled with shock.
Behind them came the tightly bound empress of Sun Moon.
"H-husband..."
"It's actually true. Xiaotao, Mother, and I all examined her. She... she really is still a virgin!"
This was news that would leave everyone utterly dumbfounded.
It was also the bombshell Luo Feng intended to hurl at the opposing Sun Moon Empire.
The empress of the Sun Moon Empire, the woman who shared a room with Xu Tianran every day...
Was actually still a virgin?
Hearing this, the two imperial princesses present first blushed, then immediately gathered around!
"Luo Feng, is what you said true?"
"Absolutely. If you don't believe me, you two princesses can verify it yourselves, or have trusted members of your staff examine her!"
"All right, I'll have everything prepared immediately!"
Princess Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire seemed very excited.
This was a tremendous bombshell.
Xu Tianran might still have been powerful enough to blot out the sky with one hand in the Sun Moon Empire.
But certain lines could not be crossed.
Those were the imperial family's continued growth and the legitimacy of its bloodline.
If the imperial family learned that the man occupying that position was a eunuch incapable of fathering children...
Would they still let him continue issuing orders?
Never mind the members of the imperial family.
Even some generals at the front would probably refuse to accept him!
At that point, forget attacking the Three Great Empires.
How long Xu Tianran could keep his seat would itself become an open question!
"Y-you..."
Seeing the female officials from the Heaven Dou Empire, Dou Ling Empire, Star Luo Empire, and even Shrek...
Ju Zi plunged into despair!
Had she known it would come to this, she would have agreed to Luo Feng's demand to withdraw the troops.
Wouldn't that have prevented all this?
Why had she insisted on fighting until the fish died and the net tore?
The examination was not complicated.
Although the Three Great Empires and Shrek Academy were enemies of the Sun Moon Empire...
The truth could not be made false.
Especially when it concerned an imperial scandal like this.
The news spread rapidly across the entire planet like wildfire sweeping over grasslands.
To rule out fabrication by the Three Great Empires...
They even went through roundabout channels to bring in the Sun Moon Empire's rebel army and opposition.
Through various channels, they obtained this explosive evidence capable of shaking the entire Sun Moon Empire.
Boom!
Before long, the Sun Moon Empire's arsenal at the front mysteriously exploded.
Large numbers of soldiers deserted.
Some furious veteran generals even swore to lead their troops back and force the emperor to answer.
They wanted to find out whether the fellow on the throne was truly a man!
And amid this chaos...
No one was more anxious than the Holy Spirit Cult!
"Damn it!"
"What's going on with Xu Tianran?"
"An emperor who can't produce an heir actually fooled even our Holy Spirit Cult!"
"If this war can't go ahead, won't all our years of planning go straight down the drain?"
"Damn that Luo Feng! He always ruins things for me at the critical moment!"
"Gather every expert in the cult! We're going to assassinate Luo Feng!"
Looking at the chaotic camp around him...
Zhongli Wu had already lost all reason.
According to their original plan...
They would harvest at least a million souls this time, perhaps even ten million.
But because of Luo Feng's series of outrageous maneuvers...
An earth-shaking war had died in the womb just like that?
"Cult Leader, Luo Feng is now the Heaven Dou Empire's Commander-in-Chief of the Three Armies..."
"He has three hundred thousand troops under his command. Wouldn't sending our handful of people against him be like smashing eggs against a rock...?"
