9: Chapter 9 Journey to the Human Kingdom
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host, offspring conceived successfully. Reward obtained: fifty years of cultivation, Azure Dragon Bloodline + 70.]
Yuan Chen walked out of the room feeling refreshed.
Last night, he had used seven fixed-target pills before finally settling the child.
But the result was good in the end.
The rewarded fifty years of cultivation settled upon him; although his Realm did not see a Breakthrough, he could clearly feel that his strength had improved significantly.
His Azure Dragon Bloodline had also reached 260.
There was still some distance to go before promotion to Silver Dragon.
However, he was not in a rush.
At this rate, he would be able to rank up with just eleven more offspring.
And they didn't even need to be fully born.
As for what rewards might come after birth, that was uncertain.
"Yuan Chen!" Just as he was deep in thought, a small voice came from under the covers.
Yuan Chen turned around, watching with amusement as the other person poked a small head out from under the quilt.
"What is it?"
"Nothing, just a bit hungry."
Yue Ying rolled her eyes, speaking in a mischievous manner.
Yuan Chen chuckled.
How could a Golden Core Cultivator still feel hungry?
But he did not expose her.
Perhaps it was because the two were not very familiar with each other, and she wanted to chat more in this way to get to know his personality.
Before they married, the two had never met.
And yesterday, once the mood was right, Yuan Chen didn't engage in any unnecessary foreplay and went straight to the main point.
Now that he thought about it, it was indeed time to Cultivate their relationship more.
"You wait here, I'll bring you something to eat."
"Mm!"
Yue Ying covered half her Face with the quilt and nodded at Yuan Chen.
Yuan Chen got up, went out, and had a servant bring over some fresh spirit fruits.
When he entered the room, Yue Ying was already dressed neatly and sitting in a chair.
Seeing Yuan Chen look over, she smiled faintly.
"Wait a moment, the servants will bring it over immediately."
After saying this, Yuan Chen sat down next to Yue Ying.
Yue Ying nodded with poise.
"Yuan Chen, I heard from Father that you cannot Cultivate. Is that true?"
Yuan Chen looked at her with a smile.
"That's right. From now on, I'll have to rely on you to protect your husband."
Yue Ying was the same age as Yuan Chen, only eighteen years old.
Seeing someone of his own age, Yuan Chen couldn't help but tease her.
Yue Ying gave a faint smile, her eyes immediately curving into a beautiful arc.
"Alright, I will protect you in the future."
Yuan Chen couldn't help but take another look at her.
After chatting for a few sentences, he realized that although she was only eighteen, she was much more mature than Ye Lingling.
There was a hint of playfulness within her poise.
It was very charming.
After opening up, the two became much closer.
As their interaction deepened, they also became more relaxed.
At the same time that the two were building their relationship.
In Luo Li's room.
Xue Lin's figure appeared.
"Sister Li, the token of the Great Yan Dynasty has shown movement; it has sent a message."
"Oh?"
Luo Li frowned.
Before she became a Cultivator, she lived in the Great Yan Dynasty.
Later, after her cultivation achieved success, her Family also soared, embarking on the path of cultivation.
Plus, out of respect for her as a Divided Soul expert.
The Luo Family had also stepped by step become the number one military Family of the Great Yan Dynasty.
Furthermore, when she first embarked on the path of cultivation, the imperial Family had provided a lot of help.
Therefore, when she left, she specifically left a token with the Great Yan Dynasty and made a promise that she could help the Great Yan Dynasty once in the future.
But later, the token remained silent, so Luo Li just threw it to Xue Lin for safekeeping.
Unexpectedly, after a hundred years, just when she was about to forget about it, it lit up again.
"What is the content?"
Luo Li asked.
Xue Lin said.
"The Great Yan Dynasty is about to launch a National War against the Damo Dynasty, and they hope Sister can go and assist."
Luo Li frowned.
Has it developed to this stage already?
Once a National War is initiated, it is a situation of life and death.
"When?"
"November of this year!"
Luo Li calculated.
There were seven months remaining.
"Does Sister intend to go?" Seeing Luo Li fall into silence, Xue Lin couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"How could I not go!"
Luo Li muttered to herself.
She had promised them.
The Cultivation World values promises very highly.
If one breaks a contract, one will suffer corresponding backlash when Undergoing Tribulation.
Moreover, even without this promise.
Her relatives were there; she could not ignore them.
But at the same time, a trace of dissatisfaction arose.
Why launch a National War?
If they fail then.
Not one of her relatives would be able to escape.
And she could only watch helplessly, unable to intervene.
Every place has its own rules.
The Mortal Realm is the same.
"Prepare yourself; we will depart in one month."
"I will go tell my husband."
After instructing Xue Lin, Luo Li went to find Yuan Ji.
The next day, Yuan Chen was also called over.
"Chen'er, come with Mother to the Great Yan Dynasty."
As soon as they met, Luo Li got straight to the point.
"What's wrong?"
Yuan Chen was stunned, looking at his mother in confusion.
He even felt a bit 'flattered'.
In eighteen years, the two of them had never taken him out.
"You will know once you go."
Luo Li did not explain, pulling out a large pile of Magic Treasures from her storage ring.
"Pick a few!"
She was also helpless inside.
Due to the rules there, without Yuan Chen, she wouldn't be able to intervene at all.
"I'm not going!"
Yuan Chen shook his head and said.
Why run so far?
It would delay his time for taking wives.
Now that Yue Ying was pregnant, he was already prepared to continue taking wives.
Luo Li was stunned.
She did not expect him to refuse.
In the past, he had always clamored about wanting to go out and see the world.
Why had he changed now?
"Chen'er, this is serious business. Help Mother with a favor!"
Yuan Chen asked: "What serious business?"
Having babies is the only serious business.
Luo Li had no choice but to explain the matter.
Yuan Chen was puzzled.
"Then why must I go?"
"This is the rule set there; those at the Nascent Soul Realm and above cannot intervene in the affairs of the Mortal Realm."
Luo Li explained helplessly.
"Oh! I see!" Yuan Chen suddenly realized: "Are there many beautiful women there?"
Luo Li: "..."
After a long while.
"Many!"
"And, Xue Lin is also going this time."
In order to coax Yuan Chen into going, she had used every possible means.
"Sister..." A faint sigh came from the air.
Yuan Chen's eyes lit up.
This was actually good.
Moreover, the influence of his past life was still there.
He also hoped to go back to the Human Realm to look around; of course, it would be even better to have human girls accompanying him.
He looked at Luo Li with righteous indignation.
"What does Mother take me for?"
"With Mother's major matter of Undergoing Tribulation at stake, how could I turn a blind eye?"
"Rest assured, I will definitely help with this favor."
"Fine, fine, fine! Hurry up and pick a few Magic Treasures!"
Luo Li responded helplessly.
Yuan Chen nodded, then picked through the dozen or so Magic Treasures.
He stood up and looked at Luo Li.
"Can't I have them all?"
Luo Li was stunned: "That is also fine."
"Then what's there to pick?"
With a wave of his large sleeve, all the Magic Treasures were swept into his storage ring.
