Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

After coming out from Qin Yuwei's courtyard, Lu Chen called for Xuanyuan Chaoge and then took some people to the outside of the city.

He believed that Xue Linglong had already gathered all the people from the Taiyin Divine Sect and was ambushing them somewhere outside Yan County.

As long as he appeared, those from the Taiyin Divine Sect would show themselves, and then they could be captured all at once.

Indeed, the people from the Taiyin Divine Sect had already set up an ambush on a road that Lu Chen was set to pass, whether they could capture the North Prince or not depended on this attempt.

In fact, there was no need for Lu Chen to leave the Prince's Mansion this time; all of the Taiyin Divine Sect's people had been lured to one place by Xue Linglong, and Lu Chen simply needed to have Xuanyuan Chaoge take people to deal with them.

However, Lu Chen thought about some of the martial artists in the Taiyin Divine Sect who possessed profound skills, considering it a waste to kill them so easily and forgo their valuable abilities.

It might be better for him to also go and see the situation, absorb their skills, and after he had absorbed enough, he could transfer those skills to his own wives and concubines.

...

After the people from the Taiyin Divine Sect reached the designated place, they waited quietly. The forest was particularly silent, and hardly a sound could be heard.

After an unknown amount of time, a scout returned, excitedly saying, "The North Prince is really coming this way, and he only has one Grandmaster with him, the rest of the soldiers are not very strong."

Upon hearing this, the hearts of those from the Taiyin Divine Sect raced with excitement.

They had not expected such a good opportunity today. If there was only one Grandmaster, then wouldn't they be able to easily capture the North Prince and take him to the south?

Cao Xianya was a Pseudo Celestial; a Pseudo Celestial could easily hold off a Grandmaster. It wasn't just holding off a Grandmaster; even killing one was not impossible.

As long as Cao Xianya could hold off that Grandmaster, then their Saintess and the other Elders could directly capture the North Prince. Although the North Prince had some abilities of his own, those paled in comparison to their Saintess and the several external Elders.

The sect members prepared themselves for battle, only waiting for the North Prince's convoy to arrive.

After an unknown period, Cao Xianya sensed the sound of hooves coming from not far away; obviously, the North Prince was on his way.

Cao Xianya's lips curled up slightly, her wrinkled face revealing a sinister smile, surprised at how easy this mission seemed.

While the people of the Taiyin Divine Sect held their breath, the approaching carriage suddenly came to a stop.

This caught the people of the Taiyin Divine Sect off guard. What was going on?

Xue Linglong said at this moment, "Something's not right. Stay here and don't move; I will go up front to scout the situation."

As her voice fell, Xue Linglong slowly approached the front, and Cao Xianya did not have any doubts since she had never suspected that Xue Linglong might betray the Taiyin Divine Sect.

After Xue Linglong headed to the front, she directly approached Lu Chen's convoy. Liang Zong recognized Xue Linglong instantly.

Since Xue Linglong had already come over, they did not have to worry about hurting her, and then Liang Zong said, "Attack!"

Just when the people from the Taiyin Divine Sect were waiting for their Saintess's command, countless cannonballs suddenly fell from the sky, and the members were blasted into the air.

Cao Xianya shouted, "No good, we've been discovered!"

Although Cao Xianya realized they had been discovered, she did not run away. Rather than running, she even allowed herself to get closer to Lu Chen's convoy.

Although the weapons of the North Country had great power, they could not harm her, a Pseudo Celestial. This was the best opportunity to capture the North Prince, and she would not let it slip away. If she missed this chance, the North Prince would surely become much more cautious in the future.

Xue Linglong quickly noticed Cao Xianya's approach and immediately pretended to attack Liang Zong.

Liang Zong seemed to understand the ruse and pretended to fight back.

Liang Zong shouted, "Who are you people? How dare you attempt to assassinate the Prince!" Find exclusive stories on empire

Seeing that Liang Zong was tied up, Cao Xianya did not waste any time. She glanced at the convoy and locked onto the most luxurious carriage in the middle.

Without a doubt, the North Prince was inside that carriage.

The next moment, Cao Xianya charged towards that carriage. Liang Zong pretended to be nervous, shouting, "Assassins, protect the Prince!"

Although Liang Zong's shouts were fierce, none of the surrounding soldiers approached the carriage.

Up to now, Cao Xianya had not realized anything was amiss. After she approached the carriage and cleaved open the door, a young man came into view.

The young man had a smile on his face as he said, "Old lady, at such an old age, shouldn't you be at home taking care of your grandchildren, enjoying your later years, instead of running around playing bandit?"

Seeing that the North Prince was not at all panicked, Cao Xianya scoffed and then said, "Worthy of the North Prince, such courage."

"Now, please accompany this old lady on a trip!"

As Cao Xianya was about to grab Lu Chen, at that moment, Lu Chen's aura burst out, "To ask this Prince to go on a trip, we'll have to see if the old lady has the ability."

Feeling the aura released from Lu Chen, Cao Xianya froze for a moment.
