107: Chat and Incidents

Zhou Garden, the main hall.

Zhou Luo and Lin Jinxuan sat in the main seats, while the other six concubines sat on either side, looking on expectantly.

Listening to the unfolding experience, the wives and concubines felt as if they were there, their emotions changing with the development of events.

For example, because he tested an antidote pill, it led to the Death of an Array Master, and he was later held accountable by the Zhou Family.

The women had heard about this matter, but hearing it from the person involved made them feel somewhat thrilling.

Especially when he was later going to suffer the whipping penalty.

"Husband was doing something for the Zhou Family, this punishment shouldn't have happened," Lin Yiyi said with a pained expression.

In her eyes, Zhou Luo sacrificed one person to save hundreds, preventing losses for the Zhou Family, and should have been rewarded instead of punished.

Now that he had saved people, he still had to suffer punishment, which made her quite dissatisfied.

"It's alright, that Fifth Miss didn't strike heavily," Zhou Luo said indifferently.

Lin Jinxuan's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she softly said, "Husband, you've worked hard. I suppose that Fifth Miss is also a reasonable person."

These words actually carried a hint of probing.

As the granddaughter of the Great Elder, Lin Jinxuan's focus was different from Lin Yiyi's.

She wanted to know more about what that Fifth Miss thought of her Husband.

Zhou Luo understood her intention and smiled faintly, "There always has to be an explanation, otherwise it would chill the hearts of the Zhou Family. Since then, I haven't seen her again."

"What about later? Husband, how is the Immortal Sect?" Lin Yiyi asked with a face full of curiosity.

"I heard that in the Immortal Sect, there are often rays of light, Immortal cranes soar, and the Disciples, the Immortals, are untouched by worldly affairs. It is a true Realm of Immortals," Lin Feiying said with a light chuckle.

The women had only seen descriptions of the Immortal Sect in ancient books, so they naturally felt that the Immortal Sect should be detached from the mundane world.

Hearing this, Zhou Luo couldn't help but think of the Disciple who demanded a "toll fee" when Master brought them into the Immortal Sect.

"It's not that exaggerated, it's just that the spiritual energy is a bit more abundant, and the Cultivators' Realms are a bit higher," Zhou Luo said with a faint smile.

"How could that be? Husband, you must be lying to us," Lin Yiyi said, full of disbelief.

Zhou Luo didn't explain much, he just continued to recount the events of entering the Immortal Sect.

Listening to the description, the women also gained a general understanding of the situation in the Immortal Sect, and expressions of yearning appeared on their faces.

"How wonderful it would be if I could see the scenery of the Immortal Sect in this life."

Bai Zhiyan said softly, voicing the feelings of the women.

The mundane world always yearns for the Immortal Sect; in their eyes, the Immortal Sect is the best and most beautiful place in this world.

Although the reality wasn't far off.

But in Zhou Luo's eyes, the Immortal Sect was just a larger "Zhou Family," no different from the mundane world.

They still needed to eat and rest, and the same human relations existed...

"Sister Zhiyan, your bone structure is good. Perhaps you'll gain status through your child and truly have a chance," Lin Feiying teased.

Among the women present, only Bai Zhiyan and Lin Jinxuan had a Sixth-Rank Middle-Grade Ling Gen (Spiritual Root), giving them the best chance of producing high-quality offspring.

They didn't dare to joke with Lin Jinxuan, the main wife, but teasing Bai Zhiyan was acceptable.

These words immediately caused the women to burst into laughter.

Bai Zhiyan's face instantly turned red, and she lowered her head, not daring to speak.

Seeing this, Zhou Luo smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth and said very directly.

"It's just the scenery of the Immortal Sect. I'll take you to see it in the future."

"Husband, we're taking this seriously!"

Lin Jinxuan tilted her head and looked at him, her beautiful eyes filled with joy.

The others also nodded.

"Of course," Zhou Luo replied.

Afterwards, he recounted the matter of entering the Outer Sect's Pill Refining area for Cultivation.

Hearing that he had made the Lu Family lose face and also lost two Magical Artifacts.

The women all praised their Husband's strong capabilities and even showed a bit of admiration for him.

Even Lin Qinghan, who was usually cold and aloof, kept glancing sideways.

Especially when Zhou Luo mentioned that he was already a First-Order High-Grade Alchemist.

The women were even more shocked, their fair and delicate faces filled with expressions of admiration and respect.

Except for Lin Jinxuan and Bai Zhiyan, they were not highly regarded within the Zhou Family.

In this life, they only thought about giving birth to a better offspring and gaining status through their child.

It wasn't until Zhou Luo displayed his Pill Refining talent and the Quan Family moved to Zhou Garden that they realized they could also gain status through their husband.

Now that Zhou Luo had become a First-Order High-Grade Alchemist, it meant the Zhou Family would focus on cultivating him, and their lives would also get better and better in the future.

This gave the wives and concubines a sense of joy that comes after enduring hardships.

Especially Lin Feiying and her two sisters, their eyes were red-rimmed, and their admiration for Zhou Luo was evident.

"Husband is indeed extraordinary. Our sisters will have good fortune to enjoy in the future," Lin Jinxuan said with a gentle smile.

The women nodded in profound agreement.

As they chatted, unknowingly, it was already evening.

Zhou Luo led the wives and concubines to the dining hall for dinner. The seven children were held in the women's arms, looking obediently at Zhou Luo.

"Father, where is Bai?" Lin Shiyi asked, leaning on her Mother's arm.

Only then did Zhou Luo remember that Bai was still in the pet pouch.

He quickly took it out.

Meow--

It, completely white, leaped up and jumped into Xiao Shiyi's embrace, allowing her to knead it.

"Bai has gotten so much bigger!" Lin Yiyi said in surprise, looking at the little fellow.

After a year of Zhou Luo's feeding, Bai had officially entered its juvenile stage, and its ability to create illusions had greatly increased.

"Eating and drinking well in the Immortal Sect, how could it not get bigger?" Zhou Luo said with a faint smile.

Logically speaking, it would still take a long time for Bai to enter its juvenile stage.

However, with the daily assistance of Pills like Beast Spirit Pills, its growth cycle was shortened.

A harmonious dinner ended.

Zhou Luo came to the front courtyard, looking up at the star-filled night sky.

Lin Qinghan quietly appeared beside him, looking up at the starry sky, "The moonlight tonight is truly beautiful!"

Zhou Luo was startled for a moment, and subconsciously said, "And the wind is gentle?"

Lin Qinghan's expression froze, and she looked at him curiously, "Did you come up with that yourself?"

"Uh, I guess so," Zhou Luo replied.

At least in this world, it was his original thought.

"Hmm, I really like that sentence."

Lin Qinghan responded, tilted her head, and gently leaned against his arm.

Zhou Luo took the opportunity to put his arm around her and pull her into his embrace.

Under the moonlight, the two snuggled together in silence, only the gentle breeze swept by, bringing hints of affection.

"How is the Zhou Family?" Zhou Luo asked softly.

"A few things happened..."

Lin Qinghan knew he wasn't asking about the situation in Zhou Garden, so she softly recounted the events that had happened in the Zhou Family over the past year.

It turned out that not long ago, a large number of Joyful Union Sect Disciples appeared in Maple Leaf City, causing widespread chaos in the city under the banner of revenge.

For a time, there was great alarm.

Seventh Elder Lin Guangping, who was in charge of the city's Zhi'an Hall, led his subordinates in a massive arrest of this group.

As a result, a mistake occurred. He fell into the Joyful Union Sect's trap, suffered a sneak attack, was severely injured, and died a few days later.

This matter shook the entire Lin Family.

Lin Xuanfeng, as the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, temporarily took over the position of Hall Master of the Zhi'an Hall and began to vigorously clear out the remaining Joyful Union Sect members in the city.

By today, Maple Leaf City has finally regained its calm.

However, the impact brought by the Death of an Elder is far from over.

The Zhi'an Hall cannot be without a Master for a day, so the Zhou Family convened the Elder Council to re-elect a new Elder.

Unexpectedly, the Great Elder suddenly went into seclusion.

This caused the Zhou Family to be unable to convene the Elder Council for a long time, delaying the matter of electing an Elder repeatedly.

And Lin Xuanfeng also temporarily took charge of two halls.
