46: One more junior sister

In the room, the Mysterious Person reached out and urgently tapped the nearby table, in a terrible mood.

For that woman, he paid a huge price and plotted for a long time, but he didn't expect a mistake to occur at the last moment.

"Should we go to the Lin Family and bring her out?" the figure in the darkness continued.

The Mysterious Person sneered, "Heh, that's a Immortal Family, do you really think it's that easy?"

"That plan cannot fail. I have an acquaintance in the Lin Family who can help inquire about the news," the other party continued.

"If the Lin Family knows she's from the Bai Family, then everything will be too late," the Mysterious Person said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, I will do it without anyone knowing," the other party replied.

The Mysterious Person stopped, drew a circle on the table, and said, "Master doesn't have that much patience to wait for us, hurry!"

There was no response from the darkness; that person had already left.

As for the Mysterious Person, he got up and walked out of the small courtyard, leaped up, and disappeared into the night.

...

Time flew by in a flash. In the blink of an eye, Bai Zhiyan had been at Zhou Garden for over a month.

Perhaps because of the hug that night, she clearly developed other feelings for Zhou Luo, an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

So much so that during this time, she didn't dare to look into his eyes, and even intentionally or unintentionally avoided him.

Besides Zhou Luo, her relationship with others had improved by leaps and bounds, especially with the children.

This group of little ones would chase after Bai Zhiyan every day, calling out "Sister, Sister," clearly treating her as their closest person.

On the other side, Lin Qinghan, who had been pregnant for a long time, finally welcomed the day of childbirth.

Zhou Luo and a group of concubines waited silently outside.

Even Bai Zhiyan brought a group of little ones along.

This group of little ones stood there obediently, their little faces full of anticipation, waiting for the birth of their younger brother or sister.

Waa waa—

Clear cries echoed from the room.

Zhou Luo, holding the Snow Mountain Spirit Cat, also heard the System's notification sound.

[Congratulations to the host on the birth of your seventh offspring, gaining a thirty-year lifespan bonus!]

[Because this offspring possesses an Eight-Rank Spiritual Root, the host gains two Aptitude points!]

[Current Aptitude: Nine-Rank Spiritual Root (5/100)]

Zhou Luo's mind was shaken.

He didn't expect to have an Eight-Rank Spiritual Root descendant.

Moreover, he gained two Aptitude points, one more than from a Nine-Rank Spiritual Root.

It was simply unexpected.

Thinking about it, Lin Qinghan is a Seven-Rank Spiritual Root, and he is a Nine-Rank Spiritual Root. Giving birth to an Eight-Rank Spiritual Root, although the probability is not high, is still possible.

It seems his luck is good.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Bai Zhiyan next to him.

If he were to combine with a Six-Rank Spiritual Root, would he be able to produce a Seven-Rank Spiritual Root descendant?

In that case, his Aptitude points might become three points.

If he was lucky enough to have a child with a Six-Rank Spiritual Root, the Aptitude points added might be even more.

After all, that is a Mid-Grade Spiritual Root.

If this continues, wouldn't breaking the hundred-point mark be just around the corner?

Zhou Luo increasingly felt that marrying a wife with a high-Aptitude Spiritual Root would greatly enhance his own improvement.

The door opened, and the midwife came out, holding the baby with a happy face, "Congratulations, congratulations, it's a daughter."

Zhou Luo put down the Snow Mountain Spirit Cat and carefully held the little one in his arms.

The other little ones also gathered around, wanting to see this younger sister.

"Since it's a daughter, her name will be Shiwen," Zhou Luo had already thought of a name.

"Father, Father, we want to see our younger sister."

At his feet, Xiao Chang'an was hopping.

Zhou Luo smiled and squatted down. The other little ones gathered around, looking curiously at this new member.

The other concubines also smiled sweetly, praising the child one after another.

This warm scene fell into Bai Zhiyan's eyes, stirring a wave of emotion in her heart.

She was originally a soft-hearted girl; otherwise, she wouldn't be so fond of playing with children.

Now, seeing such a large Family living in harmony, she became increasingly envious and couldn't help but think of her parents and Family far away.

For a moment, her eyes turned red.

Just then, a fair and soft hand held hers.

Bai Zhiyan turned her head and found it was Lin Feiying.

"You will have your own children too," Lin Feiying said with a light smile.

She thought Bai Zhiyan was feeling sad because she didn't have children yet.

Bai Zhiyan knew the other party had misunderstood, but upon hearing this, she subconsciously looked towards Zhou Luo over there, then quickly retracted her gaze, her cheeks flushing.

Holding the child, Zhou Luo walked into the room.

"You've worked hard," he said, sitting by the bed and gently stroking Lin Qinghan's slightly pale face.

Lin Qinghan smiled and shook her head.

...

The addition of a new member made the entire Zhou Garden lively once again.

Zhou Luo also temporarily put aside Cultivation and Pill Refining, focusing on accompanying his Family.

On this day, he went to Master Lin Zhishou's manor as usual to learn Pill Refining.

After so long, he finally decided to display his First-Order Mid-Grade Pill Refining level to increase the Zhou Family's attention to him.

Arriving at Shouchun Garden, he skillfully passed through the front courtyard and made his way to the main building.

It's a pity that Lin Zhishou wasn't here; he was probably focused on Pill Refining.

So he continued walking inward and arrived at the back courtyard.

As soon as he reached the back courtyard, he saw a graceful figure sitting upright in the pavilion.

That figure wore a gorgeous ruqun, her cloud-like hair lightly coiled, and her makeup was light and simple, yet it couldn't conceal the nobility about her.

Zhou Luo recognized the other party.

She was still that arrogant, just like when she seriously injured him without a word back then.

When he looked over, the other party also noticed him, and a hint of displeasure appeared on her indifferent and delicate face.

Since he was discovered, Zhou Luo naturally couldn't ignore the other party.

After all, she was the Lin Family's Third Miss, Lin Xin.

So Zhou Luo walked over, smiled, and bowed, "Third Miss."

"You are Zhou Luo," Lin Xin looked at him and asked coldly.

Clearly, she had forgotten the incident from two years ago and did not recognize that the person in front of her was the one who had almost collided with her.

"Yes," Zhou Luo replied respectfully.

Although his status had undergone earth-shattering changes compared to two years ago, in front of the other party, it was still not enough.

Coupled with the fact that he belonged to the Great Elder's faction, he was even more cautious to avoid angering the other party.

For a long time, the other party did not speak again.

Zhou Luo also didn't dare to make any other moves and could only stand there silently, bowed.

"Zhou Luo is here."

Just then, Lin Zhishou's voice came from behind him.

Zhou Luo felt relieved.

He turned around and cupped his hands in greeting to the other party, "Master."

Lin Xin also got up and bowed slightly in greeting.

"Mm, come and sit," Lin Zhishou walked into the pavilion and sat down.

Zhou Luo also followed suit and sat down next to him.

"Disciple, from now on, the Third Miss will be my Disciple."

As soon as he sat down, Lin Zhishou said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Luo's mind went blank with a bang, as if struck by a bolt from the blue, and he looked up at Lin Xin, who had an indifferent expression, in disbelief.

She became Master's Disciple?

Then won't he have one more Senior Sister from now on?
