Chapter 2564 - 2254: After Eternal Night Ends, I Will Personally Make a Trip

For a strong person in the Emperor Realm, killing someone in the Emperor Realm is as easy as crushing an ant.

But if an Emperor Realm indeed does this, and other Emperor Realms find out, it’s highly likely they’d mock them.

Yun Xianxian, being the Supreme Elder of the Wind and Cloud Tower, still holds some reputation in Central State, so she wants to save face.

Qin Lichuan asked her to take a trip to the Border Wilderness, but she naturally wasn’t willing to go.

Noticing Yun Xianxian’s inappropriate mood, Qin Lichuan hurriedly said, "Honored Master, that Lu Chen can instantly kill those in the Saint Realm; his strength is almost at the Emperor Realm."

"If we dispatch another Saint Realm, they might not be his match. Only if an Emperor Realm personally takes action can we dispose of him."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xianxian fell into deep thought.

If Qin Lichuan was not lying, then this Lu Chen is indeed extraordinary.

A native of Border Wilderness can, with just a raise of a finger, leave not a trace of a Saint Realm.

This strength is indeed near the Emperor Realm.

But how can someone in the Emperor Realm be this strong?

Very likely, this native obtained some Magic Treasure, using it to kill their Wind and Cloud Tower Elder.

Regardless of the reason, a native of Border Wilderness killed their Wind and Cloud Tower Elder, in the Saint Realm, and this cannot be left as it is.

If let those in Central State see that their Wind and Cloud Tower did nothing, they’d mock the Wind and Cloud Tower and suspect it has weakened, which is not a good thing for the Wind and Cloud Tower.

In a place like Central State surrounded by wolves, once a force shows signs of weakening, those Super Forces would swoop in.

The Wind and Cloud Tower itself is relatively weak compared to other Super Forces; and if they cannot even deal with a Border Wilderness native, after Eternal Night ends, those forces will definitely test the Wind and Cloud Tower.

However, sending an Emperor Realm person personally to Border Wilderness would also be laughed at if word spreads.

Nevermind, let them laugh.

This world is indeed survival of the fittest, so what’s wrong with the strong bullying the weak?

Moreover, though Lu Chen is in the Emperor Realm, he possesses the strength of a Saint Realm.

Various forces in Central State witnessed Lu Chen killing their Wind and Cloud Tower Elder.

They can no longer treat Lu Chen as an ordinary Emperor Realm Spirit Martial Artist.

Coming back to her senses, Yun Xianxian said, "After Eternal Night ends, I will personally take a trip. If there’s nothing else, you may leave."

Seeing Yun Xianxian agree, Qin Lichuan was pleased and immediately said, "Yes, Honored Master, your disciple bids farewell."

As his words fell, Qin Lichuan turned and left the hall.

In the blink of an eye, another two years have passed.

During these two years, Lu Chen struggled daily to quickly restore his strength.

Unfortunately, even with full effort, not a single one of his women became pregnant in these two years.

Lu Chen understood the reason; it’s likely that breaking into the Saint Realm makes pregnancy more difficult as the realm gets higher.

This made Lu Chen regret refining the Undying Bone so quickly. If he were still in the Emperor Realm, perhaps he would already have a child.

During several years of Eternal Night, countless people died in Central State, but the people of Dazhou continued to live peacefully.

The two Small Worlds have been fully developed, with crops filling the worlds. But under Eternal Night, there is no sun, and the entire world is dark, relying only on oil lamps for illumination.

In such oppressive conditions, even if fed and clothed, most people still feel hopeless, with quite a number of Border Wilderness folks not dying from the mysterious but via suicide instead.

In the Great Zhou Palace, inside the Imperial Study Room.

Ji Yunmeng straddled Lu Chen, her white lotus-like jade hands wrapped around Lu Chen’s neck, and her whole body seemed clung to Lu Chen.

Ji Yunmeng sought Lu Chen to discuss important matters, but Lu Chen insisted on such a way to discuss.

Ji Yunmeng felt helpless, knowing that during the past two years Lu Chen has become increasingly obsessed with these matters, spending nearly all his time on them apart from eating and sleeping.

At this time, Lu Chen spoke up, "Speak, what did you call me here for today?"

Ji Yunmeng sighed deeply, whispered in his ear, "The Border Army sent word; recently, quite a few people from Central State have arrived in Border Wilderness."

After Dazhou unified Border Wilderness, they established some posts in the north.

These posts were responsible for monitoring the situation in Central State.

There is a Saint Realm guarding Border Wilderness, and with Chu Yuqin personally dealing with a Saint Realm and sealing a large wave of Deceit Tide, the mysterious beings of Central State dare not tread into Border Wilderness anymore.

Yet, ordinary people of Central State remain in misery, and quite a number discovered that the Deceit Tide is absent in Border Wilderness, thus migrating towards it after their cities fell.

The situation in Border Wilderness spread further, leading to more and more people leaving Central State for Border Wilderness.

Migration under Eternal Night is an extremely dangerous endeavor, with risks of encountering Deceit Tide.

But to survive, these people have no choice, as they can neither join Immortal Cities nor gain the protection of Super Forces.

With limited resources, no Holy Land or Immortal Dynasty is willing to sustain so many people.

Several posts and cities in Dazhou have found people coming from Central State.

Upon receiving this news, Ji Yunmeng knew it was not easy to handle, so she called for Lu Chen to understand his stance on the matter.

While Dazhou lacks neither food nor resources, the influx of so many people presents logistical challenges.

Moreover, no one knows when Eternal Night will end, and whether more refugees from Central State will continue flooding into Border Wilderness.

If even more people come and Dazhou runs out of food, what then?

Crucially, more people could attract Deceit Tide.

The mysterious beings of Central State, seeing so many people evacuate to Border Wilderness, might also rush to Border Wilderness.

Upon hearing Ji Yunmeng’s words, Lu Chen asked, "Why are people from Central State coming to Border Wilderness?"

Ji Yunmeng replied, "These people, having heard from somewhere that Border Wilderness is free from disturbances by mysterious beings, having no way to survive in Central State, they came to try their luck."

Lu Chen said, "I see, then what do you plan to do?"

Ji Yunmeng responded, "I want to ask for your opinion, should we take them in or turn them away?"

"Though Dazhou isn’t short of food, if we embrace Central State refugees, undoubtedly, more will flood into Border Wilderness."

Lu Chen stated, "This is good news; if the people of Dazhou grow, the dynasty’s Qi Fortune will rise, and your strength will greatly increase."

Ji Yunmeng said, "But we may not be able to support so many people."

Lu Chen grabbed Ji Yunmeng’s hips with both hands, pausing a few times, then said, "Huff... How about this, first take in some refugees, meanwhile gather intelligence about Central State."

"Those two Small Worlds enjoy ample light, high grain yield, sustaining billions more is feasible."

Seeing Lu Chen’s decision, Ji Yunmeng said, "Alright, I will heed your advice."

As her words fell, Ji Yunmeng leaned entirely onto Lu Chen’s chest, breathing heavily, speaking no more, allowing Lu Chen to handle as he pleased.

After Lu Chen finished, leaving the Imperial Study Room, Ji Yunmeng promptly issued orders to send messages to Border Wilderness posts, receiving refugees from Central State.
