30: Chapter 30 Who knows how many fathers this child actually has?
The Mandarin Duck Pavilion's Cultivation Technique, to say it's highly confidential, is absolutely impossible.
To enter into feelings, one must truly invest emotions.
In this process, there are bound to be some who succumb to the word 'love' and leak some of the Mandarin Duck Pavilion's secrets.
So, it's clear that the side effects of the Mandarin Duck Pavilion's method of entering into feelings are probably a well-known secret among major powers.
In this situation, female Cultivators of the Mandarin Duck Pavilion absolutely cannot seek out Cultivators with good talent and Spiritual Roots to enter into feelings with.
If one has a good Spiritual Root, even if they are not from a major power, they will be recruited by one.
It's not difficult to obtain some hidden information about the Mandarin Duck Pavilion from within a power and thus deduce the identity of the woman who entered into feelings with them.
For that female Cultivator who enters and breaks off feelings, this would be a catastrophic disaster.
With her life tied to one person, she would inevitably have to compromise.
She might even be forced by people from major powers to prolong this state of having her life tied to one person.
If the Mandarin Duck Pavilion doesn't want to be controlled, they must never seek Cultivators with good Spiritual Roots, much less those from major powers.
Loose Cultivators, ordinary and unremarkable Loose Cultivators, became the first choice for Mandarin Duck Pavilion female Cultivators to enter into feelings with.
But Loose Cultivators also die easily.
Therefore, they must choose Loose Cultivators with slightly better Spiritual Roots, slightly higher cultivation, and cautious temperaments; such Loose Cultivators are very resilient.
Youth is also an important factor in selection; if they don't die in danger but die when their Lifespan is exhausted, that's also a major pain point for the female Cultivator who entered into feelings.
What Luo Yunkai displayed back then met all the standards for a Mandarin Duck Pavilion female Cultivator to enter into feelings with.
Who knew he was such a big liar!
Su Ninger glared resentfully at Luo Yunkai, making him extremely awkward.
Well, this matter, it was indeed his fault.
But how much better was Su Ninger?
She wasn't just using him to Cultivate.
Beauty Yu saw through Luo Yunkai's thoughts and snorted, "While we do use you male Cultivators to Cultivate when we enter into feelings, it's not without reciprocity. Purifying Spiritual Roots is a great Opportunity, something many male Cultivators yearn for but cannot obtain."
Luo Yunkai thought about it, and it seemed to be true.
He said that when he was over fifty, stuck at Qi Condensation Sixth Layer and unable to Breakthrough to Qi Condensation Seventh Layer, he decided to give up and start a family, only to find his chosen wife gone and his cultivation Breakthrough.
He thought it was because his wife ran away and his Heart-Nature improved, allowing him to Breakthrough the shackles of Late Stage Qi Condensation, but it turned out to be due to his Spiritual Root being purified.
Presumably, if Su Ninger hadn't helped, he might still be at Qi Condensation Sixth Layer now.
However, at Qi Condensation Sixth Layer, there would be no possibility of Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, so perhaps he wouldn't have failed the Breakthrough and had his Lifespan greatly reduced.
The Karma in this is truly inseparable and tangled.
Beauty Yu didn't know what Luo Yunkai's flickering eyes were pondering; she just wanted to fight for the person beside her.
"Do you know, what truly harmed Ninger wasn't your Lifespan issue."
Luo Yunkai was surprised, "Not a Lifespan issue? Then what is it?"
"You made Ninger pregnant!" Beauty Yu said, word for word.
Luo Yunkai looked at Su Xin, speechless, "This isn't, between a man and a woman, it's very normal..."
"Normal my ass!" A beautiful woman suddenly swore.
Luo Yunkai was dumbfounded.
Beauty Yu stared intensely at Luo Yunkai, "I don't know how you managed it, but after Cultivating our Mandarin Duck Pavilion's Cultivation Technique, there's no possibility of pregnancy. How did you get Ninger pregnant?"
"All her cultivation was ruined because of the pregnancy, and she can no longer advance!"
That's why after all these years, Su Ninger is still at Qi Condensation Sixth Layer.
Luo Yunkai's eyes widened, and he glanced at Su Xin again.
Su Ninger Youyou said, "Don't look, Little Xin is our child."
Luo Yunkai believed the System's judgment, so, why?
Could it be that besides the System, he also has some Golden Finger that makes anyone he touches pregnant?
Thinking of Xiao Yueqing, thinking of Su Ninger, it seems they both hit the mark in one go.
Especially Su Ninger, who couldn't get pregnant due to her Cultivation Technique, still got pregnant in one go.
Luo Yunkai suddenly felt his scalp tingle.
He hadn't neglected his second brother all these years, if there really was such a Golden Finger, then his Bloodline...
It might be more numerous than he could imagine!
Immediately, Luo Yunkai became excited.
He realized, his Bloodline meant Spirit Stones, meant cultivation.
He's rich, he's rich!
Luo Yunkai's breathing suddenly became heavy, making people inexplicably confused.
"You..."
"Say no more!" Luo Yunkai waved his hand, "I will make up for what I owe their mother and son."
Luo Yunkai looked earnestly at Su Xin, this eldest son by circumstance who made him realize he might have many other Bloodlines out there, with a kind and gentle gaze.
"A-Xin, Father has a way to cure you."
Su Ninger suddenly lifted her head from Luo Yunkai's shoulder. Seeing Luo Yunkai's serious expression, she immediately shook off the old man and pounced to Su Xin's side.
"Little Xin, call him Father!" Her voice was resolute, no longer as soft and weak as before.
Luo Yunkai smiled; he knew it.
What he had fancied back then wasn't just a weak woman.
Su Xin was still a bit awkward, "You want to acknowledge me?"
He actually didn't have any issues with Luo Yunkai. He understood the ins and outs of his parents' past, and his mother had never demonized Luo Yunkai as his father.
It was just that back then, when he first learned he had a father, he excitedly went to find him, only to witness a rather comical scene.
Next to Luo Yunkai's Immortal Cave, a Flower Maiden brought a child in swaddling clothes, looking for someone to take responsibility. Luo Yunkai said at the time, "Who knows how many fathers this child has?" Su Xin then didn't dare to acknowledge him.
Even though his mother's Cultivation Technique was broken, and she could no longer Cultivate through Dual Cultivation, she became a pure Beauty Yu in the Mandarin Duck Pavilion, but...
He was afraid of hearing words like "Who knows how many fathers this child has?" from his biological father.
Luo Yunkai looked at Su Xin seriously, "Of course, you are my son, how could I not acknowledge you?"
Su Xin still didn't speak, which made Luo Yunkai anxious.
If this child doesn't acknowledge him, the System won't give him Spirit Stones!
"A-Xin, you don't want to acknowledge Father? Why?"
Su Ninger watched anxiously, why was this stubborn child refusing such a rich father!
"Little Xin, didn't you always want a father when you were little? When Mother told you about your father when you were sixteen, you were very happy and went to look for him, weren't you?"
Luo Yunkai was surprised; this eldest son by circumstance, who always looked gloomy and disliked him, had once yearned for him as a father?
He saw Su Xin's face turn crimson from Su Ninger's words. The blush dispelled the gloom on his face, making Su Xin look like a normal, shy eighteen-year-old boy.
He even looked a bit familiar...
"I've seen you!" Luo Yunkai affirmed.
Su Xin pursed his lips.
Luo Yunkai looked at him like this and felt even more familiar. Memories from that time surfaced.
He instantly understood the child's hang-up and couldn't help but laugh and cry.
He strode over, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at his stubborn eldest son by circumstance who refused to look at him. Luo Yunkai chuckled, "You've been bothered by one sentence from Father for so many years?"
Su Xin lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes obscuring his gaze, and shadows fell beneath his eyelids, revealing a hint of gloom.
Luo Yunkai laughed, "That Flower Maiden back then, I was the one who found her."
Su Xin's eyes widened in surprise.
