In these past few years, Su Hanyan spent most of her time at Misty Immortal Sect, but whenever Lu Chen came to Black Dragon City, he would summon Su Hanyan.
As for what he summoned her for, that was obvious.
Moreover, after the annual Cultivators’ conference, Su Hanyan would stay for a month at the Imperial Palace in Black Dragon City.
During that month, Lu Chen would not favor any other wives or concubines and would only attend to Su Hanyan.
With Lu Chen’s help, Su Hanyan’s Cultivation State had reached the tenfold of the Yin-Yang Realm, just one step away from breaking through to the All Law Realm.
Initially, Su Hanyan thought that once she reached the All Law Realm, she would immediately find a way to escape the Tianchen World.
But as the frequency of those intimate acts with Lu Chen increased over the years, she found herself unable to leave him.
However, even though her body and heart belonged to Lu Chen long ago, every time she saw him, her heart still felt panicked.
On one hand, she always felt like Lu Chen could see through her inner thoughts, knowing she wanted to run away; on the other hand, she was still somewhat afraid of the joy he brought her.
She was becoming increasingly depraved, and if she continued to indulge in joyful pleasures without consequences, she feared that one day she would indeed become a slave to desire, never able to break free from this man.
When Su Hanyan saw herself turn pale at the sight of him, Lu Chen asked with a smile, "Sect Master Su, why do you look so unwell upon seeing me? Am I that frightening?"
Su Hanyan composed herself and responded indifferently, "Your Majesty is under a misconception."
Lu Chen said, "Oh? Is that so?"
As his words ended, in the next moment, Lu Chen’s body appeared beside Su Hanyan, causing her delicate frame to shiver involuntarily.
Lu Chen glanced at Wu Junwan and Li Qianrou. The two women instantly understood his meaning and rose from their stone seats. Wu Junwan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Qianrou and I have matters to attend to, so we won’t disturb you."
Once their words had ended, the two women left Changning Palace together.
Seeing her two direct disciples leave her behind like this, Su Hanyan felt a surge of anger within. After all, she was their Honored Master, and yet they simply left her alone with Lu Chen.
Su Hanyan remained seated, feigning calm as she picked up a teacup and took a sip. She then said, "Your Majesty, it’s still daytime. May I know why you’ve come to see me?"
Lu Chen leaned down, wrapped his arms around Su Hanyan’s waist, and whispered in her ear, "You’re just one step away from breaking into the All Law Realm. I’ve naturally come to assist you with your Cultivation."
Su Hanyan scoffed internally. Assist her Cultivation? This man clearly just wanted her body.
After spending all these years with Lu Chen, she had come to realize that regardless of whether he was cultivating someone to take on a catastrophe, this man was truly lascivious.
Initially, she thought his lasciviousness was an act, a disguise to prevent his wives and concubines from sensing his true intentions. But now it seemed that his lasciviousness was something no ordinary man could feign.
Most of his time within a year was spent in bed.
This kind of person!
While Su Hanyan was inwardly disparaging him, suddenly, her vision went dark, and when she became aware again, she indeed found herself pressed beneath him on a soft couch.
Su Hanyan didn’t struggle in the slightest; she had grown accustomed to it over the years.
Lu Chen raised his hand and gently caressed her exquisitely graceful face, before saying, "After you break through to the All Law Realm, do you plan to escape from Tianchen World?"
At his question, Su Hanyan’s heart jolted. Did he truly know her inner thoughts? Did he really have the ability to read minds?
Why was it that he could always guess her thoughts?
Regaining her senses, Su Hanyan looked into Lu Chen’s deep eyes and asked, "Are you afraid I’ll run away?"
"If you’re afraid I’ll escape, just seal my Cultivation State and imprison me. There’s no need to help me break through to the All Law Realm."
Realizing that Lu Chen knew all her thoughts anyway, denying them was pointless. She decided to lay her cards on the table; she wanted to escape. Either Lu Chen would kill her or imprison her.
Lu Chen’s hand grasped her delicate chin gently, gazing into her clear beautiful eyes as he smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I’ve always said I won’t imprison my wives and concubines. They can go wherever they wish, as long as they remember to come back."
"If you want to return to Bixia World, then go. However..."
He paused before continuing, "The All Law Realm only allows passage between worlds. Although you can leave Tianchen World, at most you can reach nearby worlds. To return to Bixia World is not so easy."
"Perhaps Bixia World is very far from Tianchen World. Without an Immortal Boat, relying on opening a passageway between worlds to return to Bixia World might not be an easy task."
This...
Listening to Lu Chen, Su Hanyan also realized that indeed, once her Cultivation State broke through to the All Law Realm, if she just wanted to escape from Lu Chen, she only needed to flee to a nearby world within Tianchen World.

But if she wanted to return to the Bixia World, not having an Immortal Boat was a great difficulty; she, a Cultivator of the All Law Realm, lacked the ability to procure an Immortal Boat.
Thinking this, Su Hanyan’s mind blanked; why was she following Lu Chen’s line of thought? When Lu Chen said that, wasn’t it just to make her stay by his side, especially since he himself had an Immortal Boat?
Afterwards, Su Hanyan stared into Lu Chen’s eyes and said, "Do you think by saying that, I won’t leave you?"
Lu Chen replied indifferently, "I certainly don’t have such thoughts."
"I’m simply reminding you, wanting to return to the Bixia World can’t be done on the strength of the All Law Realm alone."
"Right, I should also remind you of something, I have many women by my side, I’m not a man lacking in women."
Su Hanyan’s brain was shaken.
She instantly understood the meaning behind Lu Chen’s words. He was saying not to deem herself too important, with so many women by his side, one more or one less wouldn’t make any difference to him.
If she were to run away, she would be the one at loss, the one to suffer.
Thinking of this, Su Hanyan felt a surge of anger.
In these past years, she had spent the majority of her time in the Misty Immortal Sect, so she was very clear—if she didn’t spend a long time by this man’s side, she would deeply miss him, constantly recalling the things that had happened between them.
Although she always tried to suppress those thoughts, no matter how she resisted, it was futile. The only thing that worked was to see this man again and reunite with him in joy; doing this, she was able to keep from missing him for a long period.
Clearly, she was becoming dependent on this man.
Whether it was something this guy did to her or a spell he cast, she had developed a dependency on him that couldn’t simply be shaken off with words.
Once she thought of this, Su Hanyan’s heart felt defiant—how could she, a righteous Cultivator, become trapped by such matters!
Seeing Su Hanyan silent, as if contemplating something, Lu Chen didn’t waste any more time; he leaned forward and captured her red lips.
After who knew how long, a "ripping" sound echoed in Su Hanyan’s ear, leaving her speechless—this guy was, as always, impatient.
Soon, her consciousness also began to blur, and she once again fell into the joy Lu Chen brought her.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Spiritual Power surged from Lu Chen’s body, and the next moment, the Sea of Consciousness in his brain expanded wildly, his entire body radiating golden Spiritual Energy.
Perhaps influenced by Lu Chen, Su Hanyan was also on the brink of a breakthrough; she felt as if she had broken through some barrier, with countless patterns of dao appearing around her body.
Su Hanyan quickly composed herself, steadying the restless Spiritual Energy within her body as they both made their breakthroughs.
One broke through to the Yin-Yang Realm, while the other reached the All Law Realm.
After her breakthrough into the All Law Realm, Su Hanyan found her connection with Lu Chen had somehow grown even more intimate. She felt as if there was a visible yet intangible thread between her and Lu Chen.
Su Hanyan suddenly jolted awake—this was a thread of causality!
This was bad...
At first, she hadn’t thought much of it, but now she recalled her Honored Master’s words: a Cultivator must be cautious not to entangle with too much karma.
If she couldn’t resolve the heavy karma, she might never become an emperor.
She glanced at the thread of causality between herself and Lu Chen; it was as thick as half a thumb—what a tremendous karmic connection.
Now she was completely unable to rid herself of this man.
To resolve such karma, she didn’t know how much effort it would take.
But wait, although she had benefited from Lu Chen, he had also benefited from her—didn’t that count as resolving karma?
So what should she do now in order to resolve this karmic debt?
Seeing Su Hanyan’s hazy, misty eyes fixed on him, Lu Chen smiled and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? What, thinking of running away after just breaking through to the All Law Realm?"
Su Hanyan remained silent, savoring the joy Lu Chen brought her. After a while, Su Hanyan sighed faintly.
Well, might as well continue to stay by this man’s side; after all, she couldn’t return to the Bixia World right now.
Already entangled in karma, she wouldn’t have it easy in the future even if she left Lu Chen’s side. Better to stay with this man.
She wanted to see why this man nurtured so many wives and concubines, if it was to have them shield him from calamity.
Not wanting to ponder any further, Su Hanyan slowly raised her jade arm, wrapped it around Lu Chen’s neck, and then took the initiative to seal Lu Chen’s mouth with her own.
