Lu Chen looked at Lu Zian, who was almost fat, and said, "I never expected you to achieve much, nor did I think about how far you could go in your cultivation. I just want you to live a few more years."

"Do you think I asked you to practice in order to become strong? Practice is just to increase your lifespan."

"To put it bluntly, if your cultivation is too low, some methods of increasing life span cannot be used on you."

There are indeed many means in the world of immortal cultivation that can increase lifespan, such as elixirs, but low-level means of increasing lifespan have their limits. Even emperors have their limits, let alone ordinary cultivators.

However, some advanced methods of increasing lifespan usually have certain requirements on the cultivator's cultivation level. If the cultivation level is too low, he will not be able to withstand the means of increasing lifespan.

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Lu Zian lay on the ground and said no more.

He could naturally see that their father was very good to his children. It was also because of his father's "teaching by words and deeds" that he, the idle prince, also treated his children very well.

Seeing that Lu Zian did not continue to quibble, Lu Chen sighed deeply, and then continued: "You like beauty, that's right, your father, the emperor, has so many wives and concubines, and it is impossible for me to restrict you."

"But you have to understand that there is no free lunch in this world. Those who give you beautiful women have their own purpose. Don't you understand it at all?"

Lu Zian seemed to understand something and said quickly: "Father, I have never betrayed the Great Xia Dynasty."

Lu Zian was not a fool, of course he understood why some people approached him, but he always just accepted favors from those people. He never did anything to help them after receiving the gifts. Anyway, the things were given to him by others, so he would rather take them than refuse them.

Lu Chen asked: "Let me ask you, with your status, what do you want? What are you lacking?"

After hearing what Lu Chen said, Lu Zi felt relieved. Indeed, with the wealth he had, he had everything he wanted, and he was not short of beautiful women, so there was no need for him to accept benefits from those people.

Lu Chen continued, "Even if you accept the gifts but don't do anything, in the eyes of others, as long as you accept the gifts, those who give you the gifts are your people. If the person who gave you the gifts commits a crime, how do you think people will view it?"

Lu Zian was sweating profusely. He understood what Lu Chen meant. Even if he did nothing, as long as he accepted the gifts, it meant that he accepted the support of those people. Since he accepted the support of those people or forces, there would inevitably be people who would do bad things under his name, and then all the blame would be put on him.

At this moment Lu Zian suddenly reacted. So, his father was not angry because he had more than a hundred wives and concubines?

Is it just because he didn't handle his relationship with those who gave him gifts?

Thinking of this, Lu Zian said quickly: "Please rest assured, Father. From now on, I will never accept gifts from anyone casually. Except for gifts from my aunt and brothers and sisters, I will not accept any."

Lu Chen sighed slightly. Although he was indeed a little angry about what Lu Zian had done, he was always tolerant of his children and he was reluctant to punish Lu Zian severely.

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen asked: "How many children do you have now?"

Lu Zian replied: "Father, one hundred and twenty-three."

This……

Hearing Lu Zian say the number in full, Lu Chen's emotions became even more complicated.

Lu Zian has more than a hundred children, which means that there is not much blood power left in Lu Zian. His talent and aptitude were not good to begin with, and so many children have taken away his luck and blood power, making it even more difficult for Lu Zian to practice in the future.

However, Lu Chen was also somewhat relieved. Lu Zian was able to instantly say that he had 123 children, proving that he treated children very well.

This was similar to what Lu Chen knew. Lu Chen asked the Jinyiwei to find out and found out that Lu Zian was indeed very kind to every child, whether it was a boy or a girl.

This aspect is inherited from Lu Chen's genes.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen said: "From now on, you are not allowed to have children. More than a hundred is enough. If you must have children with someone, you must tell your mother."

This… Lu Zian was stunned for a moment, then said, “Yes, Father.”

Lu Zian also knew that his father did this for his own good.

Moreover, his father only told him not to have children, but did not tell him not to continue to be intimate with his wives. For a cultivator, it is too easy to avoid getting pregnant during intimacy.

Lu Chen looked at Lu Zian's fat body again. He couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so he waved his hand and a cool force entered Lu Zian's body.

The next moment, the fat on Lu Zian's body evaporated like water mist, and Lu Zian instantly turned into a strong, handsome man with eight-pack abdominal muscles.

Feeling the changes in himself, Lu Zian was completely stunned. He kowtowed and said, "Thank you, father!"

Lu Chen continued, "You have made a mistake, so you must be punished. From today on, you are not allowed to leave the mansion for three years."

Lu Zian didn’t feel that there was anything wrong. Although he liked traveling, as long as the woman was around, it would be fine for him to stay at home all the time.

"Yes, Father, I will definitely change my ways."

"So be it."

Lu Chen didn't say anything more and turned and left.

Lu Zian said quickly: "Farewell, Father!"

As soon as Lu Chen walked out of Lu Zi'an's mansion, a Jinyiwei soldier came to Lu Chen in a hurry. Lu Chen thought that the Jinyiwei had found out that Lu Zi'an had committed a crime, and his face instantly turned dark.

However, the Jinyiwei soldier quickly said, "Your Majesty, a caravan from the Red Moon Dynasty appeared on the outskirts of the Huangshan Star Region."

Hearing this, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that the Jinyiwei had found out that Lu Zian had done something ridiculous again, and he was about to turn around and beat the child.

Lu Chen asked: "Are you sure it's a caravan?"

There was actually not much communication between dynasties, because most resources could form a stable market cycle within the dynasty.

Lu Chen found it hard to believe that caravans from other dynasties would appear in the Great Xia Dynasty. He doubted whether the other party was trying to enter the Great Xia Dynasty in the name of a caravan and gather intelligence about the Great Xia Dynasty.

The Jinyiwei soldier said: "We can't confirm it either, but there is a large amount of black gold on the other party's immortal boat."

"Black gold?" Lu Chen was slightly stunned.

Black gold is a substance that falls out of the body of a demon after death and can directly hurt the demon. Although the Great Xia Dynasty also has some black gold, the amount of black gold is not large.

Moreover, there are no large-scale demons appearing now, and people are not doing much to develop black gold mines.

However, Lu Chen has always believed that sooner or later the devil will appear again, so it is right to prepare early.

In Lu Chen's opinion, when the celestial demons appear on a large scale, it will be the time when the cosmic catastrophe is about to come. Therefore, it is necessary to eliminate the celestial demons immediately when they appear. In this way, it may not trigger the rejection reaction of the universe, and the catastrophe will not come.

Of course, this is just Lu Chen's speculation.

No matter what, black gold is the most important substance in fighting against the demons.

Lu Chen then said: "Take me to see them." (End of this chapter)
