Chapter 2449 - 2139: Lu Chen’s Threat

Ji Yunmeng, realizing something, said to Lu Chen, "Those people from the Great Yan Dynasty also don’t know where Wu Junwan is hiding."

"Since we started sealing off the Capital city and capturing those people from the Outer Domain, the Great Yan Empress has lost contact with those from the Great Yan Dynasty. No one knows where she is hiding; if we want to find her, we will have to search for her ourselves."

Lu Chen said, "Is that so? Then, as soon as you have any clues about her, let me know immediately."

Ji Yunmeng asked, "Aren’t you going to capture her yourself?"

Lu Chen said, "I’ve been a bit busy lately, no time."

Ji Yunmeng sneered coldly, this guy’s so-called being a bit busy means lying on top of a woman every day?

At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, although you’re now the Emperor, you should still spend more time with Heng’er as his mother."

Ji Yunmeng said, "You really have the nerve to say that. Heng’er is also your child, and you barely spend time with him."

If anyone spent the least time with Lu Heng, it was surely Lu Chen. This guy stays with other women all day and seldom comes to the Imperial Palace, especially this month—he’s only come once, today.

Moreover, as soon as he arrived, he went straight to the Empress Dowager’s quarters, not even looking for his son, and now he’s lecturing her? This guy is pure scum.

Lu Chen said, "If I have time, I will definitely spend more time with him."

Ji Yunmeng couldn’t be bothered to argue with Lu Chen about this. She coolly asked, "Do you have any other business? If not, then go mind your own."

Hearing Ji Yunmeng’s words, Lu Chen did not leave; instead, he walked towards the desk.

Soon, Lu Chen stood by Ji Yunmeng’s side.

Seeing Lu Chen suddenly approach, Ji Yunmeng became wary. What is this guy trying to do?

At that moment, Lu Chen leaned close to her ear and whispered, "My dear, I’ve neglected you this month, it’s my fault. I’ll make it up to you today."

Ji Yunmeng’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately tried to get up and flee, but Lu Chen grabbed her wrist in an instant, pressing her against the desk, turning her back to him.

Ji Yunmeng turned her head and glared at Lu Chen fiercely, then said, "When I have the strength to surpass you one day, you’ll pay for this."

Ji Yunmeng understood Lu Chen. Once he had something in mind, she definitely wouldn’t escape.

So she didn’t intend to resist, just giving him harsh words to try to comfort herself.

As for Ji Yunmeng’s harsh words, Lu Chen couldn’t care less. He had heard plenty of them from her before.

But if Ji Yunmeng’s memory didn’t recover, it would be difficult for her to surpass him in Realm.

Lu Chen bent down and kissed her red lips.

Perhaps because it’s been too long since she last saw Lu Chen, this kiss immediately stirred her inner desires, causing Ji Yunmeng to become restless for a moment.

Realizing her loss of control, Ji Yunmeng hurriedly forced herself to steady her mind. How could she harbor thoughts for this man?

No, no, she must control herself.

But as Lu Chen continued to tease her, ultimately, she couldn’t control herself.

A few days later.

In a room of a tavern in the Great Zhou Capital.

Wu Junwan peered through the crack in the window, watching the Great Zhou soldiers coming and going below.

She could clearly feel that the Great Zhou soldiers were searching for someone these days.

Since the last time Great Zhou cleared out the people from the Outer Domain, it had been a long time since they made such a big move.

Wu Junwan couldn’t help but think, could it be that Ji Yunmeng discovered she was also in the Capital and wants to find her?

If that’s the case, then it’s troublesome.

Although the Capital is large, as an Earth Realm Spirit Warrior, even if she could hide her aura, it’s likely that other Earth Realm Spirit Warriors could detect her.

And judging by the stance of those soldiers, they wouldn’t give up until they found her.

Of course, this was just her guess; she wasn’t yet certain if Great Zhou was really looking for her.

But either way, she could no longer stay in the Capital; she must leave quickly.

Originally, she planned to take advantage of Ji Yunmeng’s attack on Anhe County to escape the Capital.

But at that time, the Capital was under lockdown, and with Lu Chen stationed there, she didn’t dare to escape easily, missing the opportunity as a result.

Later, she heard that Lu Chen had actually gone to Anhe County too, but by the time she learned of it, he had already returned.

Now with so many Heavenly Realm in the Capital, if she showed herself, she would surely be caught; she had to think of a safe way.

However, just then, a terrifying pressure descended from the sky.

The next moment, a man’s voice echoed above the Capital, "Great Yan Empress, your subjects are looking for you. Are you willing to abandon them and hide in the Great Zhou Capital without returning?"

Hearing Lu Chen’s voice, Wu Junwan was slightly stunned.

Indeed, the recent increase in patrolling soldiers in the Capital was to find her, and now it’s troublesome.

But what puzzled her was why Lu Chen would directly call out to her? Did he not fear alarming her and making her hide deeper?

Or was Lu Chen trying to alarm her deliberately, causing her to make a wrong move out of panic so he could catch her more easily?

If that’s the case, then she had to be cautious.

Recently, she shouldn’t think about escaping from the Capital. If she tried to escape now, the other side probably laid a trap, waiting for her to step into it.

Just as Wu Junwan was pondering, Lu Chen’s voice came again, "Great Yan Empress, could you come out to meet me? I assure you, Great Zhou won’t harm you."

"After all, you’re a monarch of a nation, hiding in the Capital of another country. What does that look like?"

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Wu Junwan was unimpressed.

She indeed was a nation’s monarch, but the Emperor’s identity was dispensable to her.

Thinking a few statements could provoke her to show up? Dream on.

Meanwhile, in the sky, Lu Chen released his spiritual evil, examining the entire Capital, attempting to determine where Wu Junwan was hiding via deceitful evil fluctuations.

After sensing for a while, he didn’t detect Wu Junwan’s aura.

At this time, Lu Chen continued to urge the spiritual evil, saying, "Great Yan Empress, you wouldn’t wish to see your Great Yan Immortal Dynasty people die, right? Those who followed you to the Border Wilderness must be your confidants. If you let your confidants die by my hand without saving them, when you return to the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, I’m afraid no one will dare to follow you again."

"From now on, if you don’t show up, every two hours, I’ll kill one person."

With that, Lu Chen raised his hand, a spiritual evil controlling a Great Yan Immortal Dynasty soldier floating into his hand.

Hearing this, Wu Junwan clenched her fist slightly, this Border Desolate Native was truly despicable, using Great Yan Immortal Dynasty soldiers to threaten her.

However, he was miscalculating. Even if he killed all the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty soldiers, she wouldn’t come out to save them.

After all, she was a Princess of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, and for people of such noble identity, one’s own life always came first, and it was impossible to risk everything for some subordinates.
