201: Family decision! Create an environment for the Divine Child to give birth!

Su Chen looked down.

In his line of sight was Seventh Elder Su's tear-streaked old face, and his arms that were tightly gripping Su Chen's thigh with an absurd amount of strength.

The young man felt completely numb.

Inside Su Chen's mind, bullet comments were flashing frantically at a speed of three hundred sentences per second.

He discreetly exerted force through his legs, attempting to break free from this "hug of love."

However, Su Qi held on far too tightly.

That strength felt as if he were pouring all the expectations for the Family's prosperity over the past several millennia into those old arms.

“Chener! Stop being so humble!”

Su Qi seemed to see through Su Chen's "retreat." He lifted his old face, which was wet enough to be wrung out, and spoke with an incredibly reverent tone, his voice choked with tears.

“This old man knows! You are blaming me for being blind before, for failing to see through your painstaking efforts!”

“I deserve to die! I am guilty! I shall make amends to you right now!”

Before he finished speaking, he actually freed one hand, swinging it in a wide arc as he prepared to slap his own old face!

“Stop, stop, stop!”

You've got to be kidding!

If he really let an Elder slap himself in front of the whole Family, how was he, the Divine Son, supposed to slack off in the Family in the future?

[A devil! Is this old man a devil?! He’s trying to roast me directly over the sun!]

“Seventh Elder, let's talk this through. First, let go and stand up.” Su Chen's tone was filled with the exhaustion of someone whose social energy was about to run out.

Su Qi, however, shook his head like a rattle, his attitude incredibly firm.

“No! Chener, if you do not forgive this old man, I will kneel here until I die!”

Su Chen: “...”

His temples throbbed violently; he felt his blood pressure reaching a critical point.

[I must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck! How did I end up with such a supreme king of over-interpretation for an Elder!]

Just as the scene fell into an awkward impasse and the surrounding Elders and Disciples watched in stunned silence—

Several management Elders finally fully recovered from that world-shaking shock.

They silently exchanged glances, each seeing the same irrepressible wild joy and excitement in the others' eyes as they saw in Su Qi's!

“Enough, Old Seven! Where are your manners!”

The Third Elder, who held a higher seniority, stepped forward quickly and hauled up Su Qi, who was still throwing a tantrum on the ground.

“His Highness the Divine Son has just returned and is weary from his journey. Do not delay His Highness's rest here!”

While the Third Elder scolded with his mouth, the chrysanthemum-like wrinkles on his face smiled even deeper.

He turned his head, his gaze toward Su Chen so gentle it could melt ten-thousand-year-old profound ice, filled with the affection a senior has for a Qilin Son and... supreme gratification.

“Chener, you’ve truly worked hard on this trip.”

The corner of Su Chen's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

[Hard work? Hard work my ass!]

[I had good food and drink every day, watching great dramas with melon seeds and beef. It was a divine life, okay?]

He was already too lazy to waste words with this group of old men whose brain circuits were different from normal people, so he just nodded perfunctorily and lifted his foot, preparing to slip away.

However, the Third Elder was quick to react and grabbed him, while simultaneously shooting a look at several other core Elders.

Instantly, an "Elder encirclement" composed of the Su Family's highest combat power was formed.

“Chener, don't be in such a hurry to leave.”

The Third Elder lowered his voice, a trace of mystery and fervor on his face.

Su Chen was completely bewildered by their mysterious behavior.

[What? What are you doing?]

[With such a big formation, could it be they want to tally my spoils and give me a bonus on the spot?]

[If it’s Spirit Stones... I can reluctantly listen for a bit.]

Just as Su Chen was calculating in his heart how many billions of Spirit Stones he could get—

Su Qi also leaned in. He messily wiped his face and, with a tone a hundred times more fervent than the Third Elder's, frantically sent voice transmissions to the surrounding core high-level members:

“Everyone! Don't forget! Don't forget the background of the Divine Son's parents!”

His voice trembled violently with excitement!

“The Divine Son's father is an invincible Prodigy of the Su Family Main Branch in the Tiannan Immortal Realm!”

“Our Su Family on the Xuan Yuan Continent is, to put it bluntly, just one insignificant Branch among countless branches of the Main Branch!”

“But Chener is different! He possesses the purest Bloodline of the Main Branch! He is the only and the tightest bond between our Branch and the Main Branch!”

Su Qi took a deep breath, his eyes burning as they swept over Ling Qingzhu and Liu Ruyan in the distance, who both had confused expressions.

That gaze looked exactly like he was looking at two peerless Divine Beasts that could lay golden eggs!

“If Chener can sire offspring here in our Xuan Yuan Su Family, what kind of concept would that be?!”

“When the time comes, once this news reaches the Tiannan Immortal Realm, the Main Branch will surely be delighted and bestow immense rewards!”

“Even the forces behind the Divine Son's mother will look upon our Branch with new eyes and bestow supreme Opportunities!”

“At that time, our Xuan Yuan Su Family will no longer be a small Branch!”

“We will soar into the sky! Returning to the Main Branch will be just around the corner!”

BOOM—!!!

Su Qi's "grand blueprint" was like a bolt of divine lightning that split the heavens, striking hard upon the crowns of all the Su Family high-level members!

The breathing of every Elder became incredibly heavy at this instant!

Their eyes instantly turned blood-red!

That's right!

How could they have failed to think of this!

Bloodline!

Offspring!

This was the foundation of the Family's Legacy, the root of eternal immortality!

In an instant, all the Su Family high-level members were completely ignited by Su Qi's analysis!

The way they looked at Su Chen changed completely.

It was no longer the look one gave an excellent Junior.

But rather, they looked at him as a walking, peerless treasure trove that could sustain the Family for millions of years!

“Indeed! What the Seventh Elder says is absolutely correct!” The Third Elder was so excited his beard was trembling. “This matter is the greatest Opportunity for my Su Family in ten thousand years! There must be no mistakes!”

“We must create the best environment for the Divine Son! Let him... sire offspring as soon as possible!” another Elder immediately chimed in!

“Yes! It must be as soon as possible! Raise the security Rank of Divine Son Peak to the highest level immediately! Not even a fly can be allowed to fly in and disturb the Divine Son while he is 'handling business'!”

“Spirit Gathering Array! Move that Emperor-grade Spirit Gathering Array from the treasure vault over there! We must ensure the Divine Son remains 'energetic'!”

“And supplements! Whatever hundred-thousand-year-old Dragon liver and Phoenix marrow, whatever Nine-turn Treasure Medicine, send them all to Divine Son Peak! Three meals a day—no! Five meals a day! We must nourish the Divine Son's body to the level of a Divine Beast!”

A group of old men with an average age exceeding five thousand years were now like a group of pushy midwives on stimulants. One after another, they formulated a "Divine Son Procreation Plan" on the spot that could be described as insane.

Su Chen stood in the center of the encirclement.

Although he didn't understand what they were discussing via voice transmission, seeing their eyes glowing one by one as they looked at him like he was a breeding stud waiting to be fed—

He only felt his skin crawl, a chill rushing from his tailbone straight to the top of his head!

[These old guys... what bad things are they plotting now?]

[Their eyes are so strange, why does it look like they want to drain me dry?]

[No, this place is not safe. If I don't slip away now, my innocence will be lost!]
