406: Chapter 407 You Look a Little Different!

In any case, he now had many wives and concubines and a flourishing number of descendants, so selecting a few suitable ones from the next generation to Cultivate this Cultivation Technique could not be more appropriate.

"I'll see later if the children are interested in this Cultivation Technique."

"If they are willing, I will pass it down; if they are not, I won't force them."

Ye Changge had made up his mind, and only then did his expression soften.

He carefully reviewed the contents of the "Dragon Treasure Manual" a few more times, and after confirming that no key information was missing, he properly stored this Legacy in his Sea of Consciousness.

However, this thing required an immense amount of financial resources and energy, and it was by no means something that could be accomplished in a single day.

Ye Changge silently calculated in his heart that the Materials required to Cultivate just one Dragon Dao Soldier would be enough to bankrupt an ordinary Qi Refining Family, not to mention the many other steps involved, such as coordinating Formations, Secret Arts, and Spirit Beast cultivation.

"If, in time, I could have eight or ten of them, they would certainly become a major asset to the Family."

Ye Changge shook his head, temporarily suppressing this thought. Although Dragon Dao Soldiers were powerful, they were not something he could realize immediately.

He collected his thoughts, preparing to carefully examine what other benefits this "Immaculate Heavenly Fragrance Sacred Body" might have.

He closed his eyes and sank his Divine Sense into his body, carefully perceiving the spiritual body he had just received as feedback from his daughter's birth.

Beneath his skin, a faint, ethereal Qi seemed to be slowly flowing; wherever it passed, the subtle Impurities in his Meridians were quietly washed away, and even his breathing became clearer than usual.

Not only that, he faintly felt that in every gesture he made, there seemed to be an indescribable, natural rhythm that made people want to take a second look.

"This effect... why does it seem a bit like..."

Just as Ye Changge was pondering this, he suddenly heard faint footsteps behind him.

He turned his head and saw Xia Qingyue walking out from the inner room.

Xia Qingyue was wearing a plain white dress today, her long hair loosely tied at the back of her head, with no excessive decoration, yet she possessed a naturally cold and otherworldly aura.

When she saw Ye Changge, her footsteps faltered slightly. Her clear, water-like eyes held a hint of confusion as she gently looked him over, then let out a soft "Hmm?"

Seeing this, Ye Changge took two steps forward and asked gently, "Qingyue, what's wrong?"

After spending these days together, Xia Qingyue had indeed opened up to him much more than in the beginning, and was no longer as distant as before.

Hearing this, she tilted her head slightly, as if choosing her words, and after a long moment, she said:

"It's nothing, Changge... well, I just feel like your aura seems to have changed a bit."

She didn't sound too sure, her brows lightly furrowed, as if she couldn't quite articulate what the change actually was.

But just a moment ago, when she glanced over, Ye Changge was standing by the window, and the morning light was slanting in, falling on his profile. His already handsome face now faintly revealed a very warm, lustrous glow, like fine jade that had developed a rich patina after being handled for many years.

Ye Changge's heart stirred upon hearing this.

He had just been pondering the effects of the Immaculate Heavenly Fragrance Sacred Body.

Coupled with what he had just seen on the System panel—that his daughter possessing this spiritual body was described as having a natural talent for charm—Ye Changge increasingly felt that this spiritual body likely carried some sort of innate charming effect.

If that were the case... Ye Changge couldn't help but mutter to himself, wouldn't he have surged forward a great distance on the path of "becoming the man of every Fairy's dreams in the Cultivation World"?

He was secretly amused, but remained composed on the surface, smiling and saying, "Hmm, it might be because a Cultivation Technique has made some progress."

Xia Qingyue nodded upon hearing this: "I see. I didn't expect you, Changge, to still have the mind to spend time on such things."

Naturally, she knew that Ye Changge had always been Cultivating techniques similar to those for beauty and maintaining one's appearance.

After all, so many years had passed, and Ye Changge showed almost no signs of aging; on the contrary, he was becoming younger, his skin glowing with a lustrous sheen like fine jade, and with his sword-like brows and star-like eyes, he was becoming even more handsome and otherworldly.

However, such Cultivation Techniques were mostly specifically practiced by female Cultivators; it was indeed very rare for men to study them, which was why she hadn't realized it at first.

Ye Changge laughed: "Haha, everyone appreciates beauty. If you are interested, Qingyue, I could pass the Cultivation Technique on to you."

He deliberately looked Xia Qingyue up and down, his eyes filled with amusement: "But it seems you don't really need it, Qingyue, you are already so beautiful."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyue's originally cold expression broke slightly, the corners of her mouth curling up, though she quickly suppressed it and chided, "Smooth-talker."

Ye Changge smiled and reached out, taking the opportunity to pull her into his arms.

Xia Qingyue did not resist, her body just stiffened slightly before slowly relaxing.

After these days of getting along, she had indeed lost some of her initial shyness and had gradually become accustomed to this closeness with Ye Changge.

Xia Qingyue rested her head on his shoulder, her nose twitching slightly, before suddenly looking up at him in confusion: "Changge, why do you have such a pleasant fragrance on you?"

Ye Changge was stunned for a moment, lowering his head to sniff his sleeve, but he couldn't smell anything.

He knew in his heart that this was likely another side effect brought about by the Immaculate Heavenly Fragrance Sacred Body, so he casually said: "Hmm, it's also caused by a Breakthrough in my Cultivation Technique."

Xia Qingyue didn't ask further, just feeling that the fragrance smelled very comfortable, like the breeze of a spring morning brushing over a field of flowers, making one inexplicably feel at ease.

She leaned back into his arms, gave a soft "Hmm," and didn't speak again.

The two snuggled quietly for a moment, then Ye Changge looked down at her and said gently: "Qingyue, I plan to go into seclusion for a few days to Cultivate."

Xia Qingyue nodded: "Hmm, it just so happens that I also want to go see the children."

Her tone was flat, but Ye Changge felt a warmth in his heart as he heard it.

He knew that Xia Qingyue had always wanted a child that belonged to the two of them.

Before, when they were together, she had mentioned this thought, and Ye Changge had naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

However, it was not as easy for Cultivators to have descendants as it was for Mortals, especially since they were both currently at the Foundation Establishment Perfection level of cultivation; the higher the cultivation, the more difficult it was to conceive. In the end, this matter also depended on fate.

"Hmm, go ahead." Ye Changge gently patted her back and released his embrace.

Xia Qingyue adjusted her collar, restored to her cold and dignified appearance, and turned to walk out of the courtyard.

After walking two steps, she stopped again, looked back at Ye Changge, the corners of her lips curving slightly, and without saying anything, she turned and left.

Ye Changge watched her figure disappear outside the courtyard gate, then withdrew his gaze, shook his head, and turned back to his own Immortal Cave.

Inside the Immortal Cave, the Restriction closed, isolating all sounds from the outside world. Ye Changge sat cross-legged on the prayer mat, slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and sank his mind into his body.
