Chapter 2542 - 2232: I Can Sense a Terrifying Mysterious Presence in Central State

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s response, Chu Yuqin’s brow furrowed slightly.

It was just as she thought; Lu Chen could switch to cultivating the Creation Dao and other Daos as well, indicating he couldn’t be completely trusted.

The Memory Pearl must never fall into Lu Chen’s hands; if other Memory Pearls emerge, she must seize them before Lu Chen does.

If one day Lu Chen turns against them, she will immediately help those Ancestors of the Strange recover their memories.

I just hope that day never comes.

As Chu Yuqin was lost in thought, Lu Chen’s large hand was already gently untying her sash.

Perhaps influenced by the memories in the Burial Furnace, Lu Chen couldn’t wait to revel in joy with Chu Yuqin.

Noticing Lu Chen’s subtle actions, Chu Yuqin didn’t mind.

Originally, she had intended to say something, but at that moment, Lu Chen leaned down to claim her fragrant lips.

Mmm...

Again in such intimate contact with Lu Chen, Chu Yuqin immediately felt as if her entire body was electrified.

Fortunately, she quickly adapted to this intimacy.

Lu Chen kissed her while stroking her body; within moments, they found themselves on the bed.

Though it had been a long time since their last intimacy, past memories were already engraved within their souls, making everything so practiced. Lu Chen adeptly undressed her, and Chu Yuqin coordinated skillfully.

Soon, they entered the mood.

Chu Yuqin wasn’t shy; while kissing Lu Chen, she began absorbing his vitality.

As the vitality of the living entered her body, it quickly transformed into her own Mysterious Power; she could distinctly feel her strength growing.

Additionally, as it was currently Eternal Night, the world’s suppression of the Mysterious was weaker, allowing her cultivation state to increase rapidly. This sensation of swift cultivation improvement made her quite enamored.

Chu Yuqin had a premonition that she would soon be able to break through to the Emperor Realm.

Of course, the Emperor Realm of this world is different from the Great Emperor of the Mysterious World.

The Emperor Realm of this world is merely a title; it isn’t truly the Great Emperor, similar to how the Immortals in the Burial Furnace aren’t genuine Immortals. The Emperor Realm of this world is incomparable to the Great Emperors of the Mysterious World.

However, upon becoming an Emperor Realm cultivator, she can better understand the heavenly laws of this world.

This might afford her the chance to find a way to leave this world.

...

At this moment, outside the bedchamber.

Yun Yudie, dressed in a long blue dress, stood outside Chu Yuqin’s bedchamber, without knocking, listening to the activity inside, her face slightly darkened.

Earlier, upon seeing Chu Yuqin return, Yun Yudie sensed Chu Yuqin might possess something she desired, prompting her visit to Chu Yuqin’s chamber.

Unexpectedly, Lu Chen was in Chu Yuqin’s room, and they were indeed engaging in such acts.

Chu Yuqin was of the Saint Realm, whereas Lu Chen was merely Emperor Realm; how did they end up together?

The two had just gone out briefly and immediately began indulging upon returning.

Where had they gone earlier?

Why would Chu Yuqin, a powerful cultivator of the Heavenly Profound Sacred Land, willingly be subdued by such a man?

At this moment, heavy breathing emanated from the room.

Yun Yudie gathered her thoughts, eventually turning and leaving.

She could sense the item crucial to her inside the room, but with Lu Chen and Chu Yuqin occupied, there was no way she’d interrupt them.

Moreover, with Lu Chen there, if he realized the item could threaten him and prevented Chu Yuqin from handing it over, it would be problematic.

It’s better for her to return after they’ve finished their matters to seek out Chu Yuqin.

The next morning, Lu Chen stretched lazily at the window.

In past times, he and Chu Yuqin would remain in bed for days before getting up.

Yet now, he was less infatuated with pleasures of the flesh than before.

Chu Yuqin was of the Saint Realm, making pregnancy challenging; appropriate pleasure was sufficient.

However, he had to admit, Chu Yuqin’s body was as soft as before, making it irresistible.

Just holding her felt reassuringly pleasant.

Chu Yuqin lay on the soft couch, body covered with a thin blanket.

Opening her eyes gradually, she sat up, gazing towards Lu Chen by the window.

Lu Chen had arisen before her, which genuinely surprised her.

In the past, even if awake, this man wouldn’t extricate himself so early.

Lu Chen turned to look at Chu Yuqin on the bed, smilingly saying, "Awake? Tired from last night, why not sleep a bit longer?"

Chu Yuqin calmly replied, "I am, after all, Mysterious; sleep is unnecessary."

After regaining her memory, Chu Yuqin’s internal Mysterious Power gradually returned, and her body increasingly transformed into a Mysterious Body.

As a pure Mysterious being, she doesn’t require sleep for restoring energy.

For the Mysterious, merely absorbing vitality suffices.

Then Lu Chen spoke, "Since you’ve regained memory, do you know how you arrived in this world?"

Chu Yuqin responded, "We cornered the Netherworld Evil Emperor to a Forbidden Land, intending to find you in the Spirit Realm."

"When we reached the Spirit Realm, we discovered it had already been destroyed."

"Later, we found the entrance to this world in a certain void; initially, we didn’t plan to enter. The Ancestors of the Strange waited at the entrance, hoping you would one day leave this world."

"But one day, the entrance’s suction increased dramatically, pulling all present Mysterious beings into this world."

Curious, Lu Chen asked, "Were you drawn into this world and then lost your memory?"

Chu Yuqin replied, "Yes."

Lu Chen said, "Seems this world can suppress both my original powers and Mysterious Power."

He continued from behind her, "Apart from you, have any other Ancestors of the Strange regained memory?"

Chu Yuqin said, "I can sense a terrifying Mysterious presence in Central State, perhaps an Ancestor has regained memory."

"Aside from that presence, there are no other Ancestors’ presences."

Lu Chen thought to himself, with just the two Ancestors having regained memory, it was manageable.

Moreover, Chu Yuqin wasn’t truly an Ancestor of the Strange; she was merely a clone.

Lu Chen suddenly realized something. He looked into Chu Yuqin’s eyes, asking, "Ancestors’ memories should be sealed in Memory Pearls; how did you regain your memory?"

"Could it be because you’re a clone, your memory wasn’t stripped?"

Chu Yuqin stated, "Not so; my memory and Yunzhi’s are sealed within a single Memory Pearl."

Lu Chen said, "Then you also regained memory by absorbing a Memory Pearl."

"Curious, when did you obtain the Memory Pearl?"

Since arriving in the Border Wilderness, she mostly stayed by his side, never venturing elsewhere.

He couldn’t understand where Chu Yuqin had acquired Chu Yunzhi’s Memory Pearl.

Chu Yuqin didn’t conceal anything from Lu Chen and responded, "Yunzhi’s Memory Pearl is sealed in the Ancient Ruins outside the Capital city."

Lu Chen was momentarily stunned, then said, "Impossible, what’s sealed there is Ji Yunmeng’s Memory Pearl, and I already possess it; how could there be a second Memory Pearl?"
