Although the Daxia Dynasty was created by Lu Chen, for most cultivators in power, they are more inclined to believe in the strength of Empress Tianhong.

After all, Empress Tianhong possesses the Slaughter Path.

However, Lu Chen doesn't mind these things. Whether or not the people of the Daxia Dynasty are willing to believe in him doesn't matter; after all, Empress Tianhong is also his woman.

They are one as husband and wife, and believing in Empress Tianhong is the same as believing in him.

Of course, with the Immortal Spirit Umbrella, even if they don't believe in him and want to betray the Daxia Dynasty, they can't leave.

Lu Chen had already mobilized the power of the Immortal Spirit Umbrella to separate the Daxia Dynasty from other Star Domains. To go out or come in, one must break through the barrier constructed by the Immortal Spirit Umbrella, otherwise, they can only stand before it with a blank stare.

In the great hall.

Lu Chen glanced at the people attending the meeting, then said, "If any of you have anything to say, you can bring it up now."

Upon hearing this, one Quasi-Emperor immediately said, "Your Majesty, should we take the initiative to attack or prepare defenses and wait for the enemy to come to us?"

With a Great Emperor skilled in slaughter within the Daxia Dynasty, many have some confidence, and some are even thinking of launching an offensive.

Upon hearing this question, Lu Chen said indifferently, "Naturally, we should focus on passive defense. The Shenyue Dynasty has over a dozen Great Emperors publicly and probably more secretly. There is no need to clash with them head-on."

"As long as we stay within the Daxia Dynasty, without a Heavenly Emperor, the Shenyue Dynasty cannot break the restrictions I have set."

Speaking of restrictions, Lu Chen paused for a moment, then asked, "I guess you're all aware of the restrictions around the Daxia Dynasty by now?"

Everyone in the great hall looked around at each other, finally turning their eyes to Lu Chen.

They had indeed noticed the existence of this restriction. Currently, except for the soldiers of the War Dragon Army, no one can leave the Daxia Dynasty, and outsiders cannot enter either.

At this moment, Pei Shuhua, seated on the right side of the hall, asked, "Your Majesty, can this restriction really withstand a Great Emperor's attack?"

Lu Chen replied calmly, "To be precise, it can block any Great Emperor's attack, unless the opponent is a Heavenly Emperor, otherwise it's impossible to threaten the safety of the Daxia Dynasty."

With these words, the entire hall fell silent, with expressions of disbelief on everyone's faces. If what the Heavenly Emperor said is true, hasn't the Daxia Dynasty already become undefeatable?

But can Emperor Xia truly set such a formidable restriction?

At this time, Jiang Qingfeng spoke, "The restriction set by Your Majesty has already been tested. Two Great Emperors have attempted to break through it, trying all sorts of methods, yet they couldn't breach the barrier."

As he spoke, Jiang Qingfeng raised his hand, and a projection appeared in the hall.

In the image, an Emperor Dharma Form relentlessly attacked the Fengyang Star Domain, but every attack seemed to be blocked by a blue barrier, which remained unharmed.

The scene then shifted, showing a black-robed Great Emperor attacking the Fengyang Star Domain, but again the result was the same; the barrier remained unaffected.

Seeing the efficacy of this barrier firsthand, the people in the hall felt more confident about defeating the Shenyue Dynasty.

After Jiang Qingfeng withdrew the projection, Lu Chen asked once more, "Does anyone have any other thoughts? If not, go back and prepare."

Once again, everyone looked at each other. Seeing there were no more comments, they all stood up in unison and said:

"Your subjects take their leave!"

After the formalities, they began to leave one by one. However, just as everyone turned to exit, one person looked back in Lu Chen's direction.

At this moment, just about to leave, Pei Tianlu seemed to notice something, so he glanced over, finding Pei Shuhua looking conflictedly at Lu Chen.

Seeing this scene, Pei Tianlu immediately understood what was going on. With a smile, he turned and quickly left the hall.

Once everyone had left, only Lu Chen and Pei Shuhua remained in the great hall. Pei Shuhua continued to gaze at Lu Chen without speaking.

Seeing Pei Shuhua staring at him, Lu Chen understood that his main body would soon be busy.

Today, Pei Shuhua wore a green silk gown, with an exquisite lotus belt encircling her waist, accentuating her voluptuous figure.

The silk gown clung to her body, hinting at the skin beneath. Her hair was styled in a bun, with strands flowing over her fragrant shoulders, giving her a gentle and graceful look.

With a smile, Lu Chen asked knowingly, "Shuhua, is there something on your mind?"

Pei Shuhua did not immediately respond; her expression showed a hint of struggle. To be honest, she wasn't sure of her feelings towards Lu Chen.

If it was love, she felt it wasn't; it was more gratitude.

She had been pondering for years whether she should offer herself to Lu Chen as a way to repay his immense help.

At her level, romantic affairs weren't particularly important. Being close with Lu Chen wasn't something she resisted deep down.

But she felt unsure and conflicted, considering Lu Chen had many women and didn't need another like her. Was it necessary to willingly submit herself?

Lu Chen knew that Pei Shuhua's inner resolve was wavering and that she merely needed a bit of courage. At this moment, someone needed to give her a push.

With this in mind, Lu Chen didn't hesitate for a moment. Flashing forward, he appeared right in front of Pei Shuhua.

His abrupt appearance left Pei Shuhua momentarily stunned. Instinctively wanting to retreat, but Lu Chen suddenly reached out, firmly pulling her soft body into his embrace.

Pei Shuhua tried to struggle but found herself unable to resist.

Lu Chen's strong hand wrapped around her willow waist, leaving her powerless to push him away.

Lu Chen slightly lowered his head, his determined gaze meeting Pei Shuhua's eyes. "Shuhua, become my woman."

Lu Chen avoided grandiose words, knowing he only needed to be slightly proactive with Pei Shuhua, and she would agree.

Coming back to her senses, Pei Shuhua looked calmly at Lu Chen and asked, "Is this an order from Your Majesty?"

Lu Chen smiled and replied, "You can think of it that way."

Pei Shuhua said, "In that case, I have no choice."

Lu Chen said, "You're correct. The moment I laid eyes on you, you could no longer escape from my grasp."

Pei Shuhua said, "Your Majesty truly is domineering. Your Majesty's women must have been seized in the same manner."

At this moment, Lu Chen's hand slowly moved along Pei Shuhua's waist, gradually moving downwards.

"Some are, some aren't."
