14: My husband, you are amazing! You are pregnant already?
Looking at Ye An's serious demeanor, Ye Yinger and Ye Tonger couldn't help but laugh.
Ye Yinger quickly said, "Alright, alright, let him stand here and praise the Phoenix Feather Chicken. Let's go quickly!"
"Yes, yes, lest someone see us!" Ye Tonger also quickly said.
Then, the two women hurriedly put on their clothes and left the back mountain.
However, the two women left, but Ye An was left to suffer.
Standing alone in the hot spring, he praised the Phoenix Feather Chicken for a full hour.
An hour later, as the sky began to darken slightly, he blacked out and fell into the hot spring pool.
The hot spring water then revived him.
But looking at the surrounding hot spring and the darkening sky, he clearly didn't remember what had just happened.
He only remembered seeing two beautiful women bathing.
Then, his eyes were covered by them, and after that, he completely lost his memory.
"These two must be Immortals, to be able to directly erase parts of my memory!"
"Indeed, in the world of cultivation, if you're strong enough, you can do whatever you want!"
Ye An sighed in his heart, also feeling a bit scared.
If those two women had harbored murderous intent, he would have died a very wrongful death.
"From now on, I must be even more careful in my actions. With my current strength, only by biding my time can I have a future!"
Thinking this, Ye An quickly ran out of the hot spring, retrieved the other nine Phoenix Feather Chickens he had hunted, and hurried towards home… When he arrived home, Ye An saw Ye Xinlian standing at the door, her face full of anxiety.
Seeing Ye An appear, she quickly ran over.
"Husband, where did you go?"
"Why are you so late..."
Ye An raised the Phoenix Feather Chickens in his hand and said with a smile, "These beasts are really hard to catch, so it took some time!"
Seeing that Ye An was fine, Ye Xinlian quickly called out, "You still have to pay attention to the time! You can't do this again next time!"
"Dinner is ready, hurry back!"
Ye An smiled and nodded, his heart filled with warmth.
Having lived for seventy years, this was the first time someone had waited for him to eat dinner together.
The phrase 'home is a haven of happiness' finally materialized at this moment… After dinner, Ye An went to his room early.
Today, his strength had broken through to the third level of the Body Tempering Realm, and he was looking forward to continuing to harvest merit points tonight.
But as soon as he entered the room, he saw Ye Xinlian sitting at the table, drawing something.
Upon closer inspection, Ye An discovered that there were many blank Formation scrolls on the table.
"Is this carving Formations?" Ye An asked curiously.
Ye Xinlian nodded and said, "Didn't you say at noon that you wanted to see it? I'll show you while I have time tonight!"
Ye An quickly sat down beside her.
Then he listened as Ye Xinlian began to explain.
The Dao of Formation emphasizes one word: "hook."
Only by being able to hook the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi can a Formation be considered complete.
And complex Formations, when broken down, are actually simple lines.
But it is precisely these simple lines that, when combined, form powerful Formations.
Ye Xinlian explained, "Carving Formation lines is the foundation of Formations. Only when you can carve Formation lines can you further develop into array deployment or Talismans!"
"Husband, if you want to be a Formation Master, then start from the basics!"
"Start with each stroke, and first achieve the ability to hook the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!"
Ye An found it interesting, so he immediately picked up a brush and began to carve lines according to Ye Xinlian's method.
However, he drew dozens of lines in one go.
He still didn't experience what it felt like to hook the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Ye Xinlian saw this and smiled, "Husband, don't rush. It took me a full week to hook the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi the first time!"
"You can't be too impatient on your first try!"
Ye An sighed helplessly, thinking to himself that it seemed he really had no talent for being a Formation Master.
But he had already taken a seventy-year detour; how could he take another detour now!
At that moment, Ye An called out in his mind, "Formation carving, how much can be invested this time?"
Sure enough, the System's voice immediately sounded.
"Ding! Basic Formation line delineation, 5 merit points invested this time, can master line delineation!"
Listening to the voice, Ye An couldn't help but smile.
He just happened to have 5 merit points left, and he would get new ones soon anyway.
So he wouldn't save them.
Ye An immediately invested these last 5 merit points.
Sure enough, the next moment he felt a stream of information quickly appear in his mind.
It was as if he had already carved Formation lines back and forth many times.
Ye An's eyes lit up, and the next moment he raised his hand and made another stroke on the Formation scroll.
Indeed, as this stroke fell, a seemingly ordinary straight line subtly contained the Spiritual Qi capable of hooking the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
And Ye Xinlian, who was tidying the bed nearby, also noticed the anomaly.
She turned her head and immediately covered her mouth.
"Husband, is this you...?"
Seeing Ye An nod, Ye Xinlian exclaimed, "Husband, you're too amazing! This is only your first time drawing Formation lines!"
"You can actually hook the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!"
Ye An stood up and smiled, "Your husband has many other amazing qualities. Do you want to try other aspects?"
Saying that, Ye An pulled Ye Xinlian into his arms.
Feeling Ye An's strong chest, Ye Xinlian's pretty face blushed, and she playfully scolded, "Husband, you're annoying!"
Ye An smiled, then blew out the candle in the room… Perhaps it was because his strength had reached the third level of the Body Tempering Realm.
Therefore, Ye An was exceptionally unrestrained tonight.
And while Ye Xinlian verbally pleaded for tenderness, when she got wild, she was even more formidable than Ye An.
Finally, after Ye An had gained a full 40 merit points, their 'communication' ended with Ye Xinlian's pleas for mercy.
However, just as Ye An was lying on the bed, considering how to allocate these forty merit points, the System's voice suddenly rang out.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, your wife Ye Xinlian is pregnant! The fetal cultivation function will be enabled after three months!"
"Cultivation merit points input limit: 0/300 points."
"The more merit points the Host invests during the gestation period, the more merit points will be returned at birth. Once the input reaches the limit, further input will not be possible!"
"Friendly reminder: The merit points that can be invested in offspring will increase with the mother's root bone improvement. Please be aware!"
Listening to the System's introduction, Ye An was stunned.
"She's pregnant already?"
"Mother-in-law said the cold Qi didn't seem to be very useful!"
"It seems I need to quickly clear the cold Qi from Lianer's body, otherwise, what if it affects the child?"
"Also, these merit points, earning them with one wife is too slow!"
"But if I suggest taking a concubine now, will I seem too much like a scumbag?"
"Forget it, I'll take it one step at a time!"
Ye An pondered in his heart.
Tonight's 40 merit points were already a bit insufficient.
Tomorrow morning, he would have to go early to gather thirty Phoenix Feather Chickens.
First, he needed to solve Ye Xinlian's favorability issue!
Thinking this, Ye An immediately started operating the Qi Gathering Art to resolve the cold Qi problem in her body.
