Chapter 252: Lu Zhen's Coronation

Lu Zhen looked at himself in the mirror. He wore a long black formal silk robe that reached the floor, with a five-clawed dragon pattern embroidered on it. Even on his bulky frame, it fully covered him, concealing his muscular body.

In his long black hair, there was a hairpin that gathered all his hair in one place.

"How is the training going, Li Nan?" Lu Zhen muttered.

Suddenly, a shadow materialised into a woman as she bowed towards him.

"It is going well, Young Master," Li Nan said expressionlessly.

"Good. Has anyone shown any talent?"

"Well…" Li Nan handed him a document that was carefully sealed.

Lu Zhen took the document and opened it to see the contents inside. As he read through the document, he became more and more satisfied the further he read.

"It looks like you have really done a good job," Lu Zhen said with a nod.

"Thank you, Young Master," Li Nan said with an excited tone, which made Lu Zhen smile.

"Tell me what you want. I will do it if you want."

"Young Master, it is my greatest honor to be-"

"Don't do such stupid things like this. Tell me what you really want," Lu Zhen said with his crimson gaze fixed on her.

Li Nan suddenly felt a terrifying pressure descend on her, making her feet cave into the ground. She looked at this with astonishment.

"Tell me what you want?" he asked again in a simple tone.

Hearing this, she gritted her teeth with a resigned expression, which left Lu Zhen speechless.

"Young Master, I would like to free my friend from the clutches of the patriarch…"

"Hmm," Lu Zhen had a contemplative expression when he heard this, making Li Nan nervous.

"Did I ask too much?" she thought with a frown on her face.

"Young Master, I was just jok-"

"Hmm, it might take me a month to do that. Is that fine?" Lu Zhen suddenly interrupted her.

"Re- really, Young Master?" Li Nan asked with a trembling figure, her eyes teary.

"Of course. You think I will treat my servant poorly?" he asked with a frown on his face.

"Thank you, Young Master," she said with a bow, her voice full of excitement.

"Alright, you have done your job well. You can take a rest," Lu Zhen said with a smile as he left the room.

"Thank you," Li Nan sobbingly thanked Lu Zhen as she saw the broad back of Lu Zhen, which made her feel a sense of security, as if even if the entire world fell, he could just casually pick up the whole world with just his hand.

….

Lu Zhen walked out of the room, greeted by the passageway and servants there to guide him.

He just nodded his head expressionlessly to the servants, and the servant guided Lu Zhen to the main hall.

When he reached the main hall, he saw a large throne surrounded by all the superpowers of Phoenix City.

At the front of the room, there was a huge throne with its armrest shaped like a dragon's body, positioned between Lu Huang and Lu Ying, who were sitting on the left and right of the throne.

Although their thrones were also extravagant and huge, compared to the middle one, they could only be said to be lacklustre.

Lu Zhen nonchalantly walked up to the throne.

Every step he took made the onlookers' hearts sink as they lowered their gaze in front of Lu Zhen.

Lu Zhen touched the smooth surface of the armrest and the dragon head, marvelling at the spectacular throne. It was simply a work of art. Slowly, he sat down on the throne, and every power in the room avoided his gaze in submission.

While Lu Ying nodded her head, sitting to his right, and Lu Huang, sitting to his left, remained entirely expressionless.

"From here on, Lu Zhen is officially declared as the leader of Phoenix City. If you have any objections, come forward." Suddenly, a youth materialized from the portal and looked at everyone with a business-like smile on his face; he was Lu Ming.

Everyone was silent, as if they had already acknowledged it.

"Good. It doesn't matter if you guys acknowledge it or not, but let's do it formally anyway." Lu Ming said with a still-business-like smile on his face. However, his words caused everyone's hearts to sink.

"Bring in the concubines," he said with a smile.

"I am finally going to be a great-grandpa now," Lu Ming muttered with an excited tone.

While Lu Zhen was speechless, "I am marrying, not you. Why are you so excited?"

Xia Mei and the other three entered from the door with mischievous smiles on their faces and walked up to Lu Zhen.

"Hmm?" Lu Zhen was confused, seeing them standing in front of him with mischievous smiles.

They nonchalantly sat in Lu Zhen's lap, as if it were the most natural thing for them, resting their heads on his warm chest. Since Lu Zhen was already a giant, the four girls all fit comfortably on his lap.

"So you guys are sitting on my lap now…" Lu Zhen muttered with a warm smile.

"Of course, we are sitting on your lap after all we've done for you. We don't have this much right?" Xia Mei said with a frown on her face.

Hearing this, Lu Zhen chuckled. "You're right. I have treated you a little rough. I guess you can take advantage of me for now. However," an evil smirk morphed on Lu Zhen's face.

"Get ready to face the consequences as punishment tonight," he whispered, just loud enough for the four of them to hear. This caused the four women to blush almost simultaneously, appearing flustered.

Soon, from the door, a flood of beauties entered, each with a unique aura and demeanour that made them admirable even to look at them from a distance. Lu Zhen looked at all these beauties with a smile on his face.
