166: Cultivate Bai Ran to talk again! I came here after washing it.
When it came to Cultivation, Ye An actually didn't feel much about it!
After all, his Cultivation before was basically completed by the System!
He had almost no time for genuine self-Cultivation!
The only time was when he was in the Heavenly Mansion Realm.
The most profound impression that Cultivating with Medicinal Pills left on him that time was one word: slow!
So, when he Cultivated with an Essence Stabilizing Pill again, he realized that it wasn't that he felt slow, but that Cultivating with Medicinal Pills was inherently slow!
Otherwise, some people wouldn't have spent over a hundred years Cultivating and still only be in the Heavenly Mansion Realm!
Ye An took five Essence Stabilizing Pills in one afternoon!
However, by evening, he found that his strength had only increased by a small fraction.
Strictly speaking, it was probably only about one-fifth!
And this was still under the circumstance that he didn't frequently take Medicinal Pills!
If the number of Medicinal Pills taken increased, the Impurities in his body would accumulate, and the absorption of the Medicinal Pill's effects would also slow down.
At the same time, as his strength increased, the amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi required would also increase!
Given this, his Cultivation speed would likely become even slower.
And calculating at this speed, to advance from the first level of the Golden Core Realm to the second!
It would probably take a full month!
Each subsequent level would only take longer than a month!
“Damn it, System Cultivation speed is indeed faster!”
“What's the point of Cultivating at this speed? I might as well go find my wife and farm merit points!”
Thinking this, Ye An stopped Cultivating. Anyway, it was already dark, and if he didn't go accompany his wife, she would probably have complaints!
So, for the next two days, Ye An relaxed his mindset.
He would Cultivate for two hours each in the morning and afternoon, improving his strength as much as possible!
At noon, he taught Ye Mier, Ye Tonger, and Xu Yin Alchemy!
In the evening, he brought the three girls, along with Ye Xinlian and Ye Yinger, to impart his Mental Energy Cultivation insights to them!
As for the night, that was naturally the joyful merit point farming time!
Besides that, at other times, Ye An would also occasionally go see Jiang Yu!
To foster their relationship!
Just like that, two days flew by.
After earning another 360 Karma, that evening, the System finally made a sound!
【Ding! Congratulations, Host! Your wife Liu Bairan has been pregnant for three months!】
【Please Cultivate her Physique as soon as possible, Host!】
Hearing the System's voice, Ye An was delighted and immediately got up, making his way towards Liu Bairan's room!
A moment later, in the room!
“Is there something at this late hour?”
Liu Bairan sat cross-legged on the bed, speaking indifferently, clearly in the midst of Cultivating!
Ye An heard her and said with a helpless expression!
“Can't I come find you if there's nothing wrong?”
“You can't be like this, cursing the cook after a full meal!”
“So, you don't want to see me after you've had your fill, huh?”
Liu Bairan rolled her eyes at Ye An upon hearing this and said indifferently.
“I have revenge to seek. How can I be like you, only knowing about romance all day long!”
Ye An laughed upon hearing this.
“Oh, now you're saying I only know about romance?”
“You weren't saying that on the bed two days ago!”
“Are you looking for death?”
Liu Bairan's eyes turned cold, and her voice became several shades icier!
Ye An quickly waved his hand and said.
“Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore!”
“I'm here to help you Cultivate the child's Physique!”
“It's been three months as agreed, the time is up!”
Liu Bairan was startled upon hearing this, only then remembering that it had unknowingly been a month since she arrived at Ye Family Pass!
“Then you may begin!”
Liu Bairan stopped Cultivating and looked at Ye An!
Ye An didn't waste words, he came close to Liu Bairan and placed his palm on her belly!
Sure enough, the System's voice quickly rang out!
【Ding! The System has detected that wife Liu Bairan currently possesses a Heaven-Grade Spiritual Root!】
【This cultivation can invest a maximum of 1500 merit points!】
【After birth, a maximum of 3000 merit points will be returned!】
【Would you like to invest?】
Hearing the System's voice, Ye An also glanced at Liu Bairan, then shouted in his mind!
“Invest!”
Sure enough, the System's voice followed suit.
【Ding! 1500 merit points have been deducted this time!】
【Your current remaining merit points are: 1810 points!】
Hearing the System's voice, Ye An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
Thankfully, his merit points weren't completely drained!
But now that the child was cultivated, Ye An's heart couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Looking at Liu Bairan, who had her eyes closed and an expression of enjoyment, Ye An couldn't help but ask.
“Bai Ran, can I ask you a question?”
Liu Bairan was startled upon hearing this, and couldn't help but open her eyes!
Normally, Ye An called her 'wife' or 'dear'!
He even used 'my love'!
Goodness, for him to suddenly call her by her name today really made Liu Bairan unaccustomed!
“What do you want to ask?”
Liu Bairan asked.
Ye An thought for a moment and said.
“After the child is cultivated, will you leave?”
Liu Bairan was stunned upon hearing this; she had never considered this question!
It seemed that during their month of cohabitation, she had unknowingly grown accustomed to life with Ye An!
She swore it was truly just a habit of this kind of life!
Absolutely not for any other reason!
But hearing Ye An ask about this now!
Liu Bairan only then remembered that she actually had a grudge to settle!
She hadn't yet avenged herself against the three enemies who had suppressed her back then!
But if she were to leave just like this, to be honest, she was truly a little reluctant!
Just as Liu Bairan was thinking about how to speak, Ye An spoke again.
“You don't need to feel awkward!”
“If you truly want to leave, I won't force you to stay!”
“After all, your strength is greater than mine, there's no reason for you to always protect me!”
“Logically, I am a man, I should be the one protecting you!”
“But you also know, I've only just started Cultivating not long ago!”
“It's not that I'm not working hard!”
“I just hope that while you seek revenge, you'll also consider the child more!”
“Let's just say, does this revenge absolutely have to be taken?”
“Or, what if we wait until our strength reaches the ninth rank before seeking revenge?”
“Furthermore, if you trust me, then stay. Give me some time, and when I become stronger, I can even avenge you!”
“For the sake of our child, will you consider it?”
As Ye An spoke, he also looked at Liu Bairan.
He then realized that Liu Bairan was also looking at him.
Seeing Ye An look over, Liu Bairan asked.
“Are you afraid you won't have a soft-rice life anymore?”
Ye An was startled, then smiled and said.
“Something like that!”
“We've known each other for so long; to say I have no feelings for you would be a lie!”
“But I also know, I might not be able to keep you!”
Liu Bairan said upon hearing this.
“Stop being so sentimental. You got my belly big and now you're telling me this?”
“Are you trying to shirk responsibility?”
“I'm not, I swear to Heaven!”
Ye An quickly said.
Liu Bairan smiled at his reaction.
“That's more like it!”
“Alright, stop overthinking. With my current strength, going for revenge would be courting death!”
“Don't worry, I won't be leaving anytime soon!”
“But you can't always live off me either!”
“Otherwise, when the child is born, if they still rely on me for protection, what would I gain by being with you?”
“And I need a lot of resources to recover my strength!”
“You'll have to take responsibility for all of that!”
Ye An was delighted upon hearing this and quickly said!
“Leave this to me!”
“Leaving Cultivation aside for now, your man is absolutely top-notch when it comes to making money and… that other aspect!”
At this point, Ye An also smiled and asked.
“So, about that!”
“The child's Physique has been cultivated; why don't you let me stay tonight?”
As he spoke, Ye An also shyly lowered his head.
Liu Bairan looked at his roguish appearance, feeling both annoyed and amused!
She kicked him off the bed, then said!
“Go take a bath!”
“You smell!”
Ye An was delighted upon hearing this, immediately got up, and laughed.
“I guessed it long ago!”
“I already showered before I came!”
Saying this, Ye An pounced towards the bed, simultaneously laughing.
“Little Bai Ran, I'm coming!”
