165: Chapter 165 System Double Strike: Congratulations, Host, on your double kill!

"Hahaha! Refreshing!"

Xu Chen's hearty laughter echoed over the empty ruins, sounding exceptionally heroic.

Hearing this, the muscles on the Dan Tower Great Elder's face twitched again, his heart bleeding. Seeing Xu Chen's "I'm ready to stock up" posture, he silently pulled a spare Fast-Acting Heart-Saving Pill from his sleeve and popped it into his mouth.

"Young Master Xu... this way, please."

The Great Elder forced a smile and bowed, leading Xu Chen toward the Treasure Pavilion in the deepest part of the Dan Tower like a subservient brothel servant.

"Um, Hanyan, Xiao Yu, you two go pack your things first."

Xu Chen turned back and winked at the two women. The meaning in his eyes couldn't be clearer:

Your husband is going to collect the betrothal gifts. Wait for me obediently, and we'll go home to have babies later.

Liu Hanyan and Xiao Yu exchanged a glance, seeing the shyness and sweetness in each other's eyes. They nodded obediently and turned to pack their belongings.

...

Dan Tower Treasure Pavilion.

When the heavy bronze doors slowly opened, a medicinal fragrance so rich it almost turned into liquid wafted out.

Piles of jade boxes and bottles met his eyes, along with various rare medicinal herbs shimmering with precious light.

10,000-year Lingzhi were piled in corners like weeds, Nine Revolutions Golden Pills were placed casually on shelves, and there were even seven or eight legendary Saint-rank Cauldrons.

"Is this the accumulation of the Dan Tower over countless years?"

"System, stop playing dead. Get to work."

He muttered in his heart.

"Detect what good things are here suitable for nourishing a pregnant woman's body and mark them all for me."

[Ding! Detecting that the host is performing a "restocking" action. The system is very pleased.]

[Scanning Dan Tower treasury...]

[Found: 10,000-year Blood Ginseng King (Top-tier fetal protection). Recommended to collect.]

[Found: Heavenly Heart Soul-Nourishing Grass (Soul repair). Recommended to collect.]

[Found: Ancient Dragon Whale Oil (Artifact for removing stretch marks). Recommended to collect.] [...]

Hearing the system's string of notifications, Xu Chen's grin reached his ears.

"Take them! Take them all!"

With a wave of his hand, the Primordial Space opened like a bottomless pit, frantically devouring the treasures on the shelves.

The Great Elder stood aside, watching his treasury become empty at a pace visible to the naked eye, tears welling in his eyes.

"Young Master... that was left by the ancestor..."

"Oh? Left by the ancestor? Then it must have even more sentimental value. I'll take it back to enshrine it." Xu Chen casually stuffed that Saint-rank Cauldron into his ring.

"Young Master... that was prepared for the next Tower Master..."

"It's fine. The current Tower Master is already my wife, so the next Tower Master will definitely be my son. I'll collect it for him in advance." Xu Chen spoke righteously as he took another row of jade slips.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The originally dazzling Dan Tower treasury had become cleaner than the Great Elder's face.

"Phew... that feels good."

Xu Chen clapped his hands and looked contentedly at the spatial ring that was now nearly full, feeling that this trip to the Central Plains was a massive profit.

Just as he was about to turn and leave to take his two new wives home.

The system in his mind, which had been playing dead, suddenly exploded again without warning.

And this time, it was an unprecedented double notification!

[Ding! Congratulations to the host! It has been detected that the Dan Tower Master, Liu Hanyan, has successfully conceived!]

[Life fluctuations detected... Congratulations to the host! It is a pair of Dragon and Phoenix Twins!]

[Offspring Talent Assessment: Inherited Mother's Wood Spirit Body + Father's Primordial Bloodline = Primordial Medicine God Body (Natural Pill Dao Supreme)!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host! It has been detected that the Dan Tower Saintess, Xiao Yu, has successfully conceived!]

[Life fluctuations detected... Congratulations to the host! It is a pair of Dragon and Phoenix Twins!]

[Offspring Talent Assessment: Inherited Mother's Heavenly Fire Physique + Father's True Dragon Bloodline = Saint Flame Fire Spirit Body (Natural God of Fire Control)!]

"Holy crap?!"

Xu Chen's foot, which had just stepped out, suddenly froze in mid-air.

He was completely stunned, the expression on his face becoming incredibly vivid.

"Double... double kill?!"

"And they're all Dragon and Phoenix Twins?!"

Xu Chen could hardly believe his ears.

Although he knew he was the host of the "Many Children, Many Blessings System" and his success rate was ridiculously high.

But... this was too exaggerated, wasn't it?

A double play? No, it was a quadruple play!

Liu Hanyan was pregnant with two, Xiao Yu was pregnant with two, plus Jiang Liuli at home who was already pregnant with two...

Xu Chen counted on his fingers.

"Good heavens... I only came out once, and now there are six more mouths to feed at home?"

"Who the hell can afford this!"

Although he complained, the corners of Xu Chen's mouth wouldn't stop curling up.

Those were six children with top-tier talent!

And they were all Dragon and Phoenix pairs, both sons and daughters!

If he took them back to the Imperial Clan, his father Xu Changsheng, who had been longing for grandchildren so much his eyes were turning green, would probably be so happy he'd pass the Clan Leader position to him on the spot and go take care of the grandkids himself.

[Ding! Since the host has simultaneously made two heroines with a score of 90+ pregnant with Dragon and Phoenix Twins, a hidden critical hit reward has been triggered!]

[Calculating rewards...]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: God-grade Fetal Protection Pill x 10 (Specially for stabilizing fetal energy; even giving birth on a battlefield would be as steady as Mount Tai)!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Emperor-rank Technique "Yin-Yang Creation Scripture" (A dual cultivation divine skill that significantly increases conception rates and offspring talent)!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Special Building Blueprint — [Palace of Many Children and Many Blessings] (Pregnant women living in the palace will have +100% happiness and +200% postpartum recovery speed)!]

"Good stuff!"

Xu Chen's eyes shone as he looked at the rewards in the system space.

Especially the "Yin-Yang Creation Scripture" and the God-grade Fetal Protection Pills—they were practically tailor-made for his current situation.

Jiang Liuli's situation was critical. Although she had the Nine Revolutions Replenishing Heaven Pill to save her life, her physical foundation was weak. With these God-grade Fetal Protection Pills, it would be double insurance!

"No, I have to get home quickly!"

"If I don't go back soon and those pregnant women at home find out I've produced four more children out here, they'll probably tear the roof off."

Xu Chen shuddered, a sense of crisis about the impending Shura Field instantly surging in his heart.

He turned and looked at the Great Elder, who was still dazed and confused about what had happened, and suddenly revealed an incredibly bright smile.

"Great Elder."

"Ah? Does the Young Master have any other instructions?" The Great Elder subconsciously clutched his storage bag, fearing this man wouldn't even let go of his meager private savings.

"Don't be nervous. I'm not going to rob you."

Xu Chen stepped forward and patted the Great Elder's shoulder forcefully, the strength nearly rattling the old man's bones apart.

"I'm here to tell you some great news."

"Your Dan Tower... is going to have heirs!"

"And there are four! Four future Pill Emperor candidates!"

Great Elder: "???"

Before the old man could react to where these "four" had come from.

Xu Chen had already turned into a streak of golden light and rushed out of the Treasure Pavilion.

"Hanyan! Xiao Yu! Stop packing! We don't need those scraps!"

"Quick! Get on the ship! We're going home!"

"I have urgent business! A matter of extreme joy and urgency!"

His voice still echoed in the air, but Xu Chen's figure had already vanished, leaving behind a bewildered Great Elder standing in the empty treasury, lost in the wind.

"Four... Pill Emperor candidates?"

The old man pondered for a long time, then suddenly, as if struck by lightning, his eyes widened.

"Holy crap! The Tower Master and the Saintess... are both pregnant?!"

"And with twins?!"

"Heavens! Ancestors! My Dan Tower... is really going to take off this time!!!"
