Chapter 2464 - 2154: What Did You Do to Our Princess?

Wu Qi coldly asked, "Have you made up your mind?"

Wu Qi glanced at Lu Chen and saw that Lu Chen seemed absent-minded, yawning. Wu Qi’s expression turned even more unsightly.

At this moment, Ji Yunmeng spoke, "I’ve already told you the location of the Ancient Ruins. If you want to enter, then just go in directly."

Hearing Ji Yunmeng’s words, Wu Qi sneered and said, "Even if you hadn’t told us, we could still find the location of the Ancient Ruins. What we want is the method to enter them."

After Sun Bai led the people of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty into the Border Wilderness, they quickly learned the location of the Ancient Ruins.

However, when they arrived at the entrance of the Ancient Ruins, they found that their people simply could not enter.

Their soldiers would turn to ashes the moment they touched the black unknown force at the entrance of the Ancient Ruins.

But, after their investigation, they discovered that no forces from the Outer Domain could enter; only Ji Yunmeng and the people from Zhen Nan Prince Manor had entered the Ancient Ruins before.

So, they concluded that Ji Yunmeng must know a certain method to enter the ruins.

They believed that if they knew the method to enter the ruins, perhaps they could enter, too.

Thus, Sun Bai sent Wu Qi to the Great Zhou Palace to ask Ji Yunmeng to hand over the method to enter the Ancient Ruins; otherwise, they would destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Sun Bai had already understood the situation in Dazhou, knowing that Dazhou had several Heavenly Realm strong persons. However, Sun Bai did not care, as they had quite a few Heavenly Realm members who entered the Border Wilderness, and in terms of numbers alone, their Heavenly Realm surpassed Dazhou’s.

Moreover, these Heavenly Realm individuals were merely Border Desolate Natives. Even if they broke through to the Heavenly Realm, their strength probably wouldn’t be noteworthy.

Therefore, Sun Bai didn’t consider Dazhou a threat.

Upon hearing Wu Qi’s words, Ji Yunmeng calmly stated, "To enter the Ancient Ruins, no method is needed. But not everyone can enter those ruins—only those with special constitutions can."

Wu Qi was stunned, special constitution? Is it true?

He soon realized that some Ancient Ruins or Secret Realms in Central State indeed required special constitutions to enter.

The Secret Realms left by Great Powers often aimed to select heirs, so they would set restrictions according to their preferences, allowing only qualified people to enter the Secret Realms they left behind.

This made sense. However, if that’s the case, doesn’t it mean they will be unable to enter the Ancient Ruins and seek the Ancient Inheritance?

Upon thinking this, Wu Qi immediately realized and stared intently at Ji Yunmeng seated on the Dragon Throne, then said, "I heard you entered the Ancient Ruins, which means your constitution meets the requirements of this Secret Realm."

"If that’s the case, then help us find the Ancient Inheritance inside and bring it out to give to us."

"The Great Yan can give you a chance to become a subordinate force."

Upon hearing Wu Qi’s condescending words, Ji Yunmeng slightly clenched her Jade Fist and immediately wanted to strike Wu Qi.

As the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she also had her pride. Since becoming the Empress, no one except Lu Chen had dared to speak to her in such a tone.

Sensing the murderous intent in Ji Yunmeng’s eyes, Wu Qi sneered and said, "What? Do you want to strike me? Could it be that you think just because you’ve become a Heavenly Realm, you can compete with the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty?"

Just then, Lu Chen unexpectedly released his pressure, and that pressure was solely targeted at Wu Qi. Wu Qi was immediately forced into a half-kneeling position, unable to move due to the King Realm pressure.

Feeling the terrifying pressure, Wu Qi’s face changed drastically, his pupils contracted sharply, and he said in disbelief, "K-King Realm?"

How could this be possible?

The Border Desolate Land having a Heavenly Realm was already astonishing.

Though a Heavenly Realm could barely be explained, considering the restrictions in the Border Wilderness were gradually disappearing.

And with so many people in the Border Wilderness, there would eventually be one or two talented individuals.

But in their eyes, such a place could never possibly produce a King Realm.

Breaking through to the King Realm requires consuming a massive amount of resources, even in Central State it’s not easy to break through to the King Realm, let alone in this remote land with thin spiritual evil.

This man absolutely could not be from the Border Wilderness; he likely came from Central State. It seemed a Central State Power had taken control of the Great Zhou Dynasty before them.

No wonder the Great Zhou Empress would lay in this man’s arms, remaining indifferent to his advances.

Wu Qi gritted his teeth and coldly asked, "Who are you? Why can you enter the Border Wilderness?"

Wu Qi couldn’t help but wonder if the restrictions in the Border Wilderness had weakened after they left Central State, allowing even a King Realm to enter the Border Wilderness.

If that were the case, King Realm powerhouses of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty would soon be able to enter the Border Wilderness.

Upon hearing Wu Qi’s words, Lu Chen casually said, "I am originally from the Border Wilderness, so why speak of entering the Border Wilderness?"

Wu Qi immediately said, "Impossible, you can’t possibly be a Border Desolate Native."

He wouldn’t believe a Border Desolate Native could break through to the King Realm in such a desolate place, and looking at this man, he seemed not even 50 years old.

A 50-year-old King Realm, what kind of joke is that?

If what this man said was true, then how terrifying must his talent be?

At this moment, Lu Chen calmly said, "Out of consideration for your Princess, I won’t kill you. Leave Dazhou immediately."

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, Wu Qi’s mind jolted, considering on behalf of their Princess—is it possible this man knows their Princess?

Thinking of this possibility, Wu Qi immediately asked, "Does your Excellency know where our Princess is now?"

After entering the Border Wilderness, their most important task was to find their Princess Junwan.

Yet, they’ve been in the Border Wilderness for some time without specific news of their Princess; they only knew she disappeared after coming to the Great Zhou Capital.

Later, the Great Zhou Dynasty sent soldiers to search for their Princess, but all efforts were in vain.

They thought their Princess was hiding due to fear of being found by the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Now that someone knows their Princess, it proves that this person must have met their Princess.

Moreover, this person’s words sounded as if he had a connection with their Princess.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Of course I know; your Princess is at the Zhen Nan Prince Manor."

Lu Chen didn’t hide anything. Now that he was in the King Realm, dealing with a few Heavenly Realm was merely a one-handed task.

If the people from the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty dared to run to the Zhen Nan Prince Manor to rescue Wu Junwan, he could capture them all in one go, saving him the trouble of going to find them.

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s answer, Wu Qi was briefly stunned.

After entering the Border Wilderness, they had been collecting intelligence about the Border Wilderness, and they knew that besides Ji Yunmeng, there was another person in Dazhou worth their attention: the Princely Heir of the Zhen Nan Prince Manor.

Rumor had it that the Heir of the Zhen Nan Prince Manor was very lecherous, wanting to abduct any beautiful woman he saw.

Originally just a wastrel, in a few short years, he broke through to the Heavenly Realm, becoming the strongest in Dazhou, even Ji Yunmeng, the Empress, had to listen to him.

Wu Qi realized that the man before him was the Heir of Prince Zhen Nan.

With a gloomy expression, Wu Qi asked, "What have you done to our Princess?"

Wu Qi wasn’t stupid. Their Princess was so beautiful, and now she had fallen into the hands of someone like Lu Chen, who had a reputation for being lecherous. It wasn’t hard to imagine what their Princess might be facing.
