LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 492: What, missing your little lover?
Lu Chen's first letter was an intelligence report on the barbarian tribe to the north. The spy mentioned that the Barbarian Tribe Goddess seemed to have invented some kind of war formation with immense power.
When the Barbarian Tribe used this war formation, they could even conjure up some illusory entities that could directly destroy a mountain peak.
Lu Chen thought to himself, War formation?
Although there were war formations in the world before, they were just ordinary offensive and defensive tactics.
Normal war formations couldn't conjure up any tangible entities.
Such illusory things didn't seem like they belonged to this world at all.
Could it be that this Barbarian Tribe Goddess...
Came from the Misty World?
The prohibitions of the Misty World had loosened long ago. Since Wu Junwan and the Yue Emperor could return from the Misty World, it was naturally possible for other people from the Misty World to come out as well.
Perhaps, that Barbarian Tribe Goddess was a powerful being who had escaped from the Misty World.
Lu Chen suddenly felt the pressure mounting. A war formation capable of destroying a mountain peak, he wondered if a Celestial could destroy the Barbarian Tribe's war formation.
It seemed he needed to hurry and unify the major dynasties. If the Barbarian Tribe were to invade the south and destroy Great Jue, it would be much more difficult for him to conquer Great Jue once it was occupied by the Barbarian Tribe. He had to seize Great Jue before the Barbarian Tribe could destroy it.
With these thoughts, Lu Chen tore open the second report and began to read it carefully.
Reading the content of the report, Lu Chen frowned again. After an investigation by the Brocade Guard, it was found that the source of the epidemic in Great Qian came from the southern seas.
Fishermen, while fishing, found a golden box. They initially thought they had struck it rich, but that very night, the entire fishing village where the fishermen lived broke out with the epidemic. The initial outbreak spread from that golden box.
Seeing the contents of the report, Lu Chen thought that there seemed to be something in the southern seas of Great Qian.
He wondered whether the epidemic could be eradicated. If the epidemic in Great Qian couldn't be resolved, how could he take over the territory?
After contemplating for a moment, Lu Chen looked at Qin Yushan and said, "Commander Qin, come here."
Hearing this, Qin Yushan thought of the scene he had just witnessed, and curious about what Lu Chen had done to Dongfang Longyue, he walked towards Lu Chen.
Approaching Lu Chen, he saw Lu Chen raise his hand, concentrating spiritual power at the tip of his fingers, then once again used the Enlightening Divine Ability.
The next moment, Qin Yushan's mind was filled with a vast amount of knowledge about bacteria and viruses. His pupils shrank, feeling utterly astonished.
However, at that moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt as if the spiritual power within him had been drained, and he instantly became weak all over.
Then the system notification sounded.
[The number of times the host can use Enlightenment within a day is related to the host's realm. As the host has not yet broken through to the Celestial Realm, you can only use the Enlightening Divine Ability twice a day.]
Lu Chen thought to himself, no wonder his body felt so weak all of a sudden; using divine skills consumed so much spiritual power. But it didn't matter, he could still enlighten quite a few people each day, imparting modern knowledge to many.
As Lu Chen was thinking about enlightening two people each day, Qin Yushan quickly knelt on the ground to give thanks, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting your subject knowledge!"
Lu Chen said indifferently, "Stand up. I have a very important mission for you."
Qin Yushan replied, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."
In his heart, Qin Yushan had already guessed what mission Lu Chen was referring to. By imparting so much knowledge about bacteria and viruses at this time, it was clear that he intended for Qin Yushan to investigate the epidemic in Great Qian, preparing for Great Sum's future conquest of Great Qian.
Lu Chen then said, "I plan to send you to Great Qian to investigate the characteristics of the epidemic. Find out what exactly it is, whether it's bacteria or a virus."
"This mission is rather dangerous, so you must be extremely careful once you're in that place,"
Qin Yushan immediately responded, "Yes, I will definitely ascertain the specific situation of the Great Qian plague."
Lu Chen said, "Alright, go prepare. I have already taught you the methods to prevent the plague. Once you arrive in Great Qian, pass on these plague prevention techniques to the other Jinyiwei Guard soldiers, and ensure they remain vigilant at all times."
Qin Yushan said, "Thank you for Your Majesty's concern."
"I take my leave!"
As soon as the words fell, Qin Yushan rose and left the Imperial Study Room. Watching Qin Yushan's departing figure, Lu Chen hoped that the plague in Great Qian was caused by bacteria or viruses.
If it weren't these things but something beyond his understanding, then it would probably not be so easy to eradicate the plague when the time came.
At this thought, Lu Chen felt a headache coming on.
At that very moment.
Mysterious Moon Palace.
Atop a mountain peak, Yun Xianxian in white robes that outshone the snow, stood quietly on the mountain summit, gazing at the distant green hills.
Then, Chen Wanrong appeared behind Yun Xianxian, "Honored Master, I plan to go down the mountain."
Yun Xianxian's face remained expressionless as she spoke, "What, missing your little lover?"
Chen Wanrong said, "Before returning to the Mysterious Moon Palace, I told my junior brother I would go see him this year."
Hearing Chen Wanrong refer to Lu Chen as her junior brother, Yun Xianxian let out a cold snort, "You're not focusing on cultivation, just indulging in the pleasures of the opposite sex, it will harm you sooner or later."
"When you go down the mountain, pass a message to that wayward disciple. Tell him that the prohibitions in the Mist Region are about to break, and within twenty years, the restrictions in the Mist Region will start to disappear. He needs to hurry up and prepare."
"The Mist Region has many powerhouses surpassing the Celestial Realm. With his current strength, he is completely incapable of contending against the powerhouses of the Mist Region."
Hearing Yun Xianxian's warning, Chen Wanrong was taken aback.
Twenty years?
Isn't that too short? Could Lu Chen grow strong enough within twenty years?
As soon as Chen Wanrong recovered from her shock, she hastily thanked her, "Thank you for the reminder, Honored Master. I will descend the mountain immediately to inform my junior brother of this matter."
Yun Xianxian said nothing more and continued to look into the distance.
After Chen Wanrong turned and departed,
Yun Xianxian finally continued to speak, "I wonder where the other wayward disciple has run off to, not having shown up for so many years."
"Could it be that she ran off to the Misty World when the restrictions loosened last time?"
The other wayward disciple mentioned by Yun Xianxian was not Lu Chen's mother, Chu Yue, but her Registered Disciple, who was also the Celestial who hunted Grandmasters decades ago.
It was because of that disciple's existence that the number of Grandmasters in this world had drastically decreased, with many Grandmasters going into hiding and not daring to show themselves casually.
Although rumors had it that she had returned to the Mysterious Moon Palace for seclusion, in reality, she had only returned to say farewell to Yun Xianxian, but at that time Yun Xianxian was in closed-door cultivation and did not see her leave.
It was only after Yun Xianxian ended her seclusion that she found out the Registered Disciple had already left the Mysterious Moon Palace, her whereabouts unknown, with no news even up to now.
