Chapter 2473 - 2163: Didn’t Expect You to Be Someone Who Dares Act But Not Admit It

Wu Junwan felt that even if she wandered for a few more months, she wouldn’t find the Ancient Inheritance.

So she decided not to waste any more time and left the Ancient Ruins, returning to the Zhen Nan Prince Manor.

The first thing she did upon her return was to see Lu Chen.

At this moment, Lu Chen was busy in Xue Linglong’s room.

After reaching the King Realm, Lu Chen found it even harder for women to get pregnant by him.

Even now, Wu Junwan’s child was born, yet Xue Linglong hadn’t conceived his child.

It was also difficult for the other women to conceive, despite Lu Chen sharing his favor with them equally over the past few months.

Yet, there was no reaction from their wombs at all.

Of course, it might be possible that they quietly cleansed their bodies, yet Lu Chen watched their states closely and found they had no such thoughts.

In other words, it was mainly because of his high realm that conceiving offspring became difficult.

Lu Chen suddenly regretted reaching the King Realm so soon.

If he hadn’t refined the Undying Blood and Undying Bone and had saved those things, waiting to refine them after gaining more rewards would have maximized his benefits.

But it’s too late to talk about that now.

Just as Wu Junwan arrived at Xue Linglong’s courtyard, she heard Xue Linglong and Lu Chen’s voices from inside: "Darling, this concubine knows she was wrong."

"Nngh, darling, don’t..."

"Phew... The Demon Sect Sorceress is truly something else..."

Hearing the intermittent sounds from the room, Wu Junwan’s brows furrowed slightly.

Although she understood that doing such things with Lu Chen could make them lose self-control, hearing Xue Linglong’s voice,

always gave Wu Junwan the feeling that the demoness’ voice carried an intense allure.

If Lu Chen were subjected to the demoness’ long-term seduction, he might develop a liking for her.

This was not a good thing.

Wu Junwan then said toward the room, "Master Lu, I have returned. Can I see you?"

Hearing Wu Junwan’s voice outside, the immersed Xue Linglong immediately snapped back to reality.

Xue Linglong instantly felt displeased. This obnoxious woman came to interrupt at such a time.

Before Lu Chen could speak, Xue Linglong immediately said, "Since you want to see Master Lu, then come in."

Hearing Xue Linglong’s words, Wu Junwan’s expression instantly turned cold. The Demon Sect Sorceress was indeed shameless. She might be shameless, but Wu Junwan still had dignity.

There’s no way she would go in.

After all, she’s a princess of the Immortal Dynasty.

A demoness is a demoness, with no sense of boundaries.

Wu Junwan couldn’t be bothered to argue with Xue Linglong and silently waited for Lu Chen’s response.

Seeing that Wu Junwan didn’t speak at the door, Lu Chen finally said, "Wait a moment, I’ll be right out."

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, Xue Linglong’s voice came from the room, "Ah, Master Lu, you’re so fierce..."

"No, Master Lu... this concubine..."

Hearing Xue Linglong’s flirtatious voice, Wu Junwan’s expression became even more unpleasant.

She snorted coldly, flicked her sleeves, turned around, and left Xue Linglong’s courtyard, heading back to her own to see Lu Feng.

She had been away for several days, and although the child was cared for, being absent for days might have made Lu Feng long for his mother.

As Wu Junwan just returned to her room, perhaps sensing her return, Lu Feng began to cry loudly.

Wu Junwan hurriedly went over to pick Lu Feng up, gently rocking him while saying, "It’s my fault, Mother shouldn’t have left for so many days. From now on, Mother won’t leave you alone again."

After Wu Junwan’s soothing, Lu Feng finally stopped crying.

About two hours later, Lu Chen finally arrived leisurely.

Seeing Lu Chen, Wu Junwan put the child down on the cradle and then asked with an indifferent expression: "Is the Ancient Inheritance with you?"

Lu Chen asked, "What Ancient Inheritance?"

Wu Junwan said, "You can’t fool others. There’s nothing in it."

"If the inheritance isn’t with you, who else would have it? You wouldn’t want to say there was never any inheritance in the first place, would you?"

Hearing Wu Junwan’s words, Lu Chen smiled and said, "You guessed right; there’s indeed no such thing as an Ancient Inheritance inside."

"When I first went in, I found there was nothing, and it confused me greatly."

"But later I figured out what was going on. The best thing left by that Ancient Great Power was that so-called Ancient Ruins, and as for the inheritance, it’s certainly just a rumor."

Hearing this, Wu Junwan frowned. This guy truly lies without blushing.

The location of the Ancient Ruins was deduced by Tianji Pavilion; how could it not contain an Ancient Inheritance?

Tianji Pavilion’s information has never been wrong.

Seeing that Wu Junwan seemed not to believe him, Lu Chen continued, "Didn’t you notice? The spiritual evil is dense in those ruins."

"Though I’ve never been to Central State, I believe the spiritual evil concentration even in your Central State’s Holy Lands couldn’t match the dense spiritual evil in that Small World, right?"

After hearing Lu Chen’s words, Wu Junwan thought that Small World was indeed extraordinary. The spiritual evil concentration in Central State couldn’t surpass that Small World’s.

She had a breakthrough just upon entering.

But that Ancient Great Power made such efforts to set a huge restriction in the Border Wilderness, prohibiting Earth Realm experts from entering that world to prevent others from entering that Small World?

What a joke?

Impossible, there must be something inside.

Wu Junwan looked at Lu Chen disdainfully and said, "I thought you were formidable, but didn’t expect you to be someone who dares to do but not admit it."

She thought Lu Chen was a fearless man, but now it seemed he, too, feared death, not even daring to admit he took the Ancient Inheritance.

Lu Chen’s refusal to admit it was because if he did, once the Border Wilderness restrictions disappeared, the Outer Domain Forces would surely come to trouble him, demanding he hand over the Ancient Inheritance.

Picking up on Wu Junwan’s disdainful tone, Lu Chen chuckled lightly and said, "There’s indeed no Ancient Inheritance in it, but an existence terrifying enough to be sealed."

"When I entered that Small World, I immediately resealed that terrifying existence."

"If it weren’t for me, once that terrifying existence broke its seal, the entire world would face total destruction."

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, Wu Junwan’s mind slightly shook.

Sealing a terrifying existence?

Could it be true? The more this guy talked, the more absurd it sounded?

Lu Chen continued, "Honestly, whether you believe it doesn’t matter to me."

"I also know that even if I told the truth, once the Border Wilderness restrictions are lifted, the Central State forces will still believe the inheritance landed in my hands, besieging me to demand the Ancient Inheritance."

"So, it doesn’t matter whether I admit the Ancient Inheritance is with me or not."

"But at times like this, do you think I have any reason to lie to you?"

Wu Junwan was momentarily silent.

Lu Chen wasn’t wrong in saying that even if he didn’t admit it, others would think the Ancient Inheritance was with him. So, indeed, he had no need to deceive her.
