At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

These people were all high-level officials under Empress Yunzhi, and each of them had a flattering look on their face.

When these people saw the child in Empress Yunzhi's arms, they all showed shocked expressions.

"Hey! Why is it a boy! Master, why didn't you tell us earlier? We all missed the birth of this child!"

"Oh, look at my memory, I didn't even recognize him. He actually looks like our sect master."

…

A group of people were chattering, looking at the swaddled baby in surprise.

Empress Yunzhi looked around at the crowd and felt irritated. She never thought that all her subordinates were just outsiders.

"You all get lost. I don't need your help."

Empress Yunzhi waved her hands in disgust, signaling them to leave quickly, but she was ignored by these people.

When Lin Chen saw this, he frowned and was about to speak when he saw Yun Jinglin step forward and block in front of him. He snorted coldly: "Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to interrupt? Get out of here!"

"Get out! It's none of your business here!"

A white-haired old man came out, scolded angrily, and slapped Lin Chen on the face, "You brat, don't think that just because you are the sect leader's husband, you can be so presumptuous, get out of here! Otherwise, I'll take it. Your damn life!”

The old man's speed was extremely fast, and he had already slapped Lin Chen on the face in the blink of an eye.

Snapped!

With a crisp sound, Lin Chen was whipped out. Half of his face was swollen and bright red.

"You are looking for death!" Yun Jinglin was furious, and just as he was about to take action, Empress Yunzhi stopped him and said, "Jinglin, stand down!"

Although Yun Jinglin was not angry, he did not dare to disobey Empress Yunzhi's words and stood aside obediently.

"Are you OK?"

Empress Yunzhi asked hurriedly when she saw Lin Chen standing up with his face covered.

"Plop!"

Lin Chen knelt directly on the ground, kowtowed to Empress Yunzhi, and begged: "Sect Master, I want to marry you!"

"What?"

Everyone was in an uproar and stared at Lin Chen in disbelief.

No one expected that Lin Chen would make such a request.

This is crazy!

"Asshole, are you mentally ill? You are my husband now, and you still want to marry my sister?" Yun Jinglin was furious.

"Shut up!" Empress Yunzhi cursed, and then looked at Lin Chen, "I promise you! But you have to think clearly. After you and I get married, you will stay with me to take care of our mother and son. Are you willing? ?"

"I do!" Lin Chen nodded without hesitation.

"Are you really willing? Aren't you afraid of being spurned?" Empress Yunzhi frowned.

She is not a pedantic person. If she really fell in love with Lin Chen, she might be able to accept Lin Chen, but now, she only feels that Lin Chen is too despicable and hypocritical!

She does like this child very much, but this does not mean that she will be wronged to marry a man she does not love at all because of a child.

"I believe that as long as you follow me, one day you will change your mentality and fall in love with me! At that time, you will understand why I want to marry you!"

Lin Chen insisted.

In fact, he was also muttering in his heart about how he could save Empress Yunzhi and her child.

"Bah! How shameless to say such a thing. Sect Master, just ignore this shameless guy and just kill him!" Yun Jinglin cursed angrily.

Lin Chen glanced at him and said indifferently: "If you want to die, just give it a try!"

Yun Jinglin choked and his momentum weakened, but he refused to admit defeat and said: "What do you mean, threatening me? You are a useless person, what can you do to me?"

Lin Chen shook his head and said calmly: "If it weren't for Yunzhi's sake, you would be dead by now. I advise you to be wiser, otherwise, you will definitely die."

His voice was bone-chilling and chilling.

Yun Jinglin was so frightened that he took a few steps back and looked at Lin Chen as if he had seen a ghost.

This person's cultivation level is only the fifth level of Sainthood. Logically speaking, there is nothing to be afraid of.

But at this moment, he actually saw a hint of cold murderous intent in Lin Chen's eyes!

At that moment, he even felt that this ordinary-looking guy was a ferocious beast. If he continued to mess with him, he might die!

Yun Jinglin's face twitched fiercely, and he couldn't help but swallow, feeling extremely fearful in his heart.

At this time, Lin Chen looked at Empress Yunzhi and said sincerely: "Sect Master, I hope you can marry me! I know that you may not listen to what I say now, but I still want to say, I love you, please marry me!"

After Lin Chen finished speaking, he knelt on the ground again.

Empress Yunzhi was stunned and looked at Lin Chen. She couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. A warm current surged in her heart.

She didn't expect that this guy was willing to sacrifice everything for himself and his son, and he didn't even care about his life.

She originally thought that Lin Chen only married her because he was greedy for her beauty, but now it seems that it is obviously not the case.

"Do you really want to leave with me?"

Empress Yunzhi took a deep breath and asked slowly.

Lin Chen solemnly said: "I do!"

"Okay! I promise you!" Empress Yunzhi nodded, glanced at Yun Jinglin and said, "From now on, he is the master of our Shengyuan Sect, and you are his slave!"

"Slave? Master, are you crazy? He is a waste, how can he be qualified to be the master of our Shengyuan Sect!"

Yun Jinglin was dumbfounded, and was so anxious that he turned around. He didn't understand why the sect leader suddenly changed his mind.

"I said he deserves it, and he deserves it!"

The Yunzhi Queen said in a domineering and sharp tone. She looked at everyone around and said, "From now on, Yun Jinglin is the young sect leader of my Shengyuan Sect. Anyone who dares to disobey him will be an enemy of my entire Shengyuan Sect!"

Everyone was shocked.

"Welcome to the young sect leader!" Behind the Yunzhi Queen, the elders and disciples knelt on one knee and said in unison.

The Yunzhi Queen nodded and said, "From today on, Lin Chen is the new sect leader of Shengyuan Sect."

After that, she gave some instructions and left with Yun Jinglin and others, and Lin Chen naturally became the new sect leader of Shengyuan Sect.

"Lin Chen, you said before that you came here for me? Why?"

The Yunzhi Queen sat on the edge of the bed and stroked the tender face of the baby in her arms.

Although she was the head of a sect and was high above everyone else, she was still like a kind and gentle mother when facing her child.

"To save you!" Lin Chen said seriously.

"What!"

Empress Yunzhi looked at Lin Chen in surprise and said in disbelief: "How could this happen?"

Although she announced to the public that Lin Chen was dead, she had sent people to look for him, but she didn't get any news.

A strong sense of loss suddenly rose in her heart.

If, before, Lin Chen was just a little better to her, but after the last incident, he was undoubtedly a peerless strong man to Lin Chen!

This peerless strong man, in her heart, was like a god in the sky, and could not be blasphemed.

And this strong man was actually the father of her child!

She felt as if her heart was pierced by a needle, and the pain was unbearable!

Empress Yunzhi's reaction fell into Lin Chen's eyes, making him slightly surprised.

Immediately, he sighed and said, "I have only been in this world for more than ten years, but you are already over a hundred years old. If nothing unexpected happens, I estimate that I will die in a dozen years, or I will stay at the peak of the Saint Realm forever, and I will not make any progress in my life."

"And you? You are already a strong man in the early stage of Tongtian Realm, with a lifespan of more than 8,000 years, and your child has just been born!"

Lin Chen paused and said bitterly, "If I die, your child will be alone forever, with no one to take care of him. I don't think you want him to become an orphan, right?"

"You..."

When Empress Yunzhi heard this, a sad look appeared on her pretty face. She knew that she was indeed not qualified to blame Lin Chen.

She really hated Lin Chen in her heart, because Lin Chen killed her master, who was also her father!

But at this moment, she heard that Lin Chen was willing to give up his life for his own safety.

In addition to guilt, her heart also produced waves of ripples.

"Thank you." Finally, Empress Yunzhi whispered to Lin Chen, and then walked into the next room with the baby in her arms.

At this time, the black-clothed woman who had been following Empress Yunzhi suddenly stood beside Lin Chen.

"Who are you?" Lin Chen looked at her.

"I am the maid of the Sect Master, you can just call me Xuehen. The Sect Master needs a quiet environment for her to recuperate now."

The black-clothed woman looked at Lin Chen and said, "The Sect Master said that if you are willing to go with her, you can follow me."

After that, she turned and left.

"Uh..."

Lin Chen was stunned and a little confused.

He could see that Empress Yunzhi loved her child very much and cared about him very much, otherwise she would not have risked helping him.

But since she wanted to see him, she should have taken him away directly just now, without beating around the bush.

And now, she actually asked him to follow her, which made him suspicious.

"Let's go, follow me."

The black-clothed woman walked in front and led Lin Chen towards another palace.

The architectural style of this palace is similar to that of an ancient imperial palace, except that the walls are carved from jade, which makes it look extremely luxurious, and the layout is simple and elegant.

The woman in black led Lin Chen through the courtyard and finally entered the hall.

Lin Chen looked at the palace and found that it was actually an empty city, and it was full of spiritual energy, which was suitable for cultivation.

Empress Yunzhi sat on a chair, looked at Lin Chen, and said, "Lin Chen, I want to ask you something, tell me the truth!"

Lin Chen thought to himself, could it be that what he just said was heard by this empress? But he said calmly, "You ask."

Empress Yunzhi hesitated for a moment and asked, "What is the relationship between you and me?"

Lin Chen blinked and said in astonishment, "Are you saying you are my woman? Then we are husband and wife!"

"Puff!"

Empress Yunzhi almost choked on her own saliva. She glared at Lin Chen and said, "I don't care what the relationship between you and me is. Anyway, I hope you can treat me and Xiaochen well."

She was ashamed and angry that she actually had a son with Lin Chen.

This completely overturned her worldview!

However, she was completely relieved that Lin Chen would never hurt her child.

Hearing this, Lin Chen heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed that Empress Yunzhi had misunderstood.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Hehe, don't worry. But you have to remember, don't call me a heartless man in the future."

He thought for a while, and then said, "Now, your strength has surpassed that of the former emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, and you are no longer controlled by others. From now on, you can be with us openly."

Lin Chen felt a little sorry, after all, he occupied the body of Empress Yunzhi.

Although he did it voluntarily, he still felt a little guilty for taking away her identity and happiness.

"I don't want to be an emperor!" Empress Yunzhi shook her head.

"Huh?" Lin Chen was stunned.

"My dream is to roam freely in the world of martial arts. This palace is too depressing." Empress Yunzhi said firmly, and then added: "Didn't you also roam freely in the world of martial arts?"
