483: Five years later

Wang Yuwei's so-called thinking was actually just a delaying tactic.

In her heart, she had already made a decision.

That was to agree with Zhou Luo's words and treat the child as a "tool" to temper her own state of mind.

This might sound a bit cold, but isn't that how Immortals are? What's more, Wang Yuwei Cultivated the Supreme Forgetfulness Sutra.

Zhou Luo also understood her meaning.

He inwardly hoped to keep this child.

It wasn't because the child could increase his lifespan and Aptitude points; purely as a Father, he hoped all his children would have smooth sailing and grow up safely.

This was one point where he differed from other Immortals.

In terms of dealing with others and handling affairs, he had a touch more human emotion than others.

So even if the earliest group of wives and concubines no longer spent Time with him, they still didn't have any dissatisfaction towards him; instead, they expressed understanding.

Three Nian later, Wang Yuwei finally decided to give birth to the child.

Anyway, she couldn't go back to the Sect now. When the Time came to give birth to the child and then return to the Sect, her Revered Master probably wouldn't know.

After making her decision, her state of mind stabilized again.

And due to the pregnancy, Zhou Luo temporarily gave up Dual Cultivation with her, allowing her to rest and nurture the fetus.

In the blink of an eye, it was Time for Wang Yuwei's delivery.

[Congratulations to the Host on the birth of your seventy-fourth descendant, gaining one hundred Nian of lifespan bonus!]

[Due to this descendant possessing a First-Grade Spiritual Root, the Host has gained one hundred Aptitude points!]

[Current Aptitude: Seventh Grade Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) (500/5000)]

Outside the room, accompanied by the clear cry of the infant, the System's notification sound also echoed in Zhou Luo's ears.

His face lit up with joy, and his heart was filled with excitement.

He had once again fathered a descendant with a First-Grade Spiritual Root.

This luck was truly Heaven-Defying.

In an instant, he suddenly felt fortunate that Wang Yuwei chose to keep this child. Otherwise, if he had missed a descendant with a First-Grade Spiritual Root, he didn't know how long he would regret it.

Moreover, with the birth of this child, he had completed one-tenth of the distance to his next Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) Breakthrough.

Although it was still a long and arduous journey, as long as he continued to grow, one day, he would complete the Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) Breakthrough.

Entering the room, Wang Yuwei, who was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, although her face was slightly pale, had not suffered much damage.

She leaned against the headboard, holding an infant in swaddling clothes in her arms.

A rare trace of tenderness appeared on her indifferent face, and her gentle eyes carefully watched the wailing little one, full of affection.

Zhou Luo strode over, looking at her with a smile on his face: "You've worked hard."

Wang Yuwei shook her head and asked: "It's a girl, what do you think she should be named?"

"Zhou Shiyu," Zhou Luo gave his answer.

He chose one character from her name as the child's name, which could also be considered a commemoration of her.

Wang Yuwei's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and her right hand gently stroked the little one's skin, saying softly: "That's good too. If she has Cultivation talent in the future, she can be sent to Azure Spring True Sect."

Although she gave birth to this child for her emotional tribulation, Wang Yuwei still hoped to fulfill her duty as a Mother in the future.

"Okay, I will let Ye Qian raise her," Zhou Luo nodded.

He and Wang Yuwei had already discussed it. From now on, this little one would recognize Ye Qian as her Mother. If possible, this little one might never know who her biological Mother was for her entire life.

Hearing this, Wang Yuwei's smile froze, and her state of mind became unstable again.

But soon, with the help of the Supreme Forgetfulness Sutra, she gradually regained her composure.

During this nearly one Nian period, the problems she had previously encountered with the Cultivation Methods had gradually been resolved, and she had also passed her emotional tribulation very smoothly.

Now, even giving her child away and no longer acknowledging her only caused a slight fluctuation, without much reluctance.

"Okay."

After speaking, she handed the child over.

Perhaps it was because she knew she was about to leave her Mother, the child's crying became louder.

Zhou Luo held her, gently coaxing her.

...

Five Nian later, when Zhou Shiyu was five Nian old, a major event occurred in Azure Spring True Sect.

The Personal Disciple of True Person Bishui, the current Sect Head, was kill during an outdoor training session.

As soon as this happened, the entire Azure Spring True Sect was shaken.

That True Person Bishui was even more furious, unleashing her thunderous wrath to avenge her Disciple.

Because this Disciple was her most favored and most anticipated one, she had been counting on this person to increase the influence of her faction and inherit her mantle in the future.

Unexpectedly, she died prematurely like this.

After this incident occurred, Azure Spring True Sect immediately locked onto the Killer Tower.

Although the Killer Tower was widely known and long-renowned, True Person Bishui was truly enraged.

She directly declared to the outside world that she would completely destroy the Killer Tower organization in Jinyun Continent and issued numerous orders for her Disciples and Elders to search for traces of the Killer Tower.

When this matter reached Zhou Luo's ears, he realized that Wang Yuwei should also be leaving soon.

Because the Killer Tower had succeeded.

It was just that he hadn't expected that the person the Killer Tower had ordered Wang Yuwei to assassinate was actually the Sect Head's Disciple.

It seemed that the internal factional struggles within Azure Spring True Sect were just as fierce.

During these five Nian, through Dual Cultivation with Wang Yuwei, he finally broke through the shackles and successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Stage.

And Wang Yuwei was also getting closer to condensing a Golden Core.

At the same Time, during these five Nian, she had basically completed her emotional tribulation. Whether facing Zhou Luo or her biological daughter, she could face them calmly.

So just a few days ago, after giving a few instructions, she returned to Azure Spring True Sect.

After this departure, it was unknown when they would be able to meet again.

In the backyard of Zhou Residence, Zhou Luo was holding Xiao Shiyu and enjoying the flowers.

During these five Nian, under Ye Qian's care, Xiao Shiyu also displayed Heaven-Defying Cultivation talent. Just like her Elder brother Zhou Changtian, she had already begun to absorb Qi into her body at a young age.

It was just a pity that he, as her Father, didn't give her as many benefits as he did to his other children.

In these five Nian, he had fathered a total of six descendants.

These descendants were all born to his concubines, so their talent could only be described as average.

And in these six draws, he once again drew four rewards for his descendants, as well as a High Grade Foundation Establishment Cultivation Methods and a top-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Artifact.

Now that he possessed a Spiritual Artifact, he no longer cared for this small Spiritual Artifact.

So he simply gave it to Zhou Changtian, who possessed a First-Grade Spiritual Root.

The current Zhou Changtian was almost twenty Nian old. Under Zhou Luo's guidance, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, and he was already at the ninth level of Qi Training at a young age.

If it weren't for Zhou Luo worrying that his Cultivation was too fast and his foundation wasn't solid, he would probably already be in the Foundation Establishment Realm by now.

This was the terrifying aspect of a First-Grade Spiritual Root.

This speed, even he himself couldn't match.
