240: Chapter 240 Talent, Profound Rank Top Grade

The fourth ceremony, marrying Liu Rumei.

Three days later.

This time, Gu Qingcheng joined the ranks of those "peeking."

In the projection, Liu Rumei wore a bright red wedding dress, looking as gentle as water.

Lin Yun lifted her Red Bridal Veil; she looked up, her eyes filled with tenderness.

Lin Yun lowered his head and gently kissed her.

Liu Rumei closed her eyes and responded.

In the master bedroom, Gu Qingcheng watched the projection, a faint smile appearing on her face:

"Rumei is truly beautiful."

Ye Qianqian leaned over:

"Qingcheng, you were beautiful back then too."

Gu Qingcheng's face turned red:

"Shut up."

Yun Shu smiled and tried to smooth things over:

"Alright, alright, let's watch the main feature."

The projection continued.

Liu Rumei was gentle, and Lin Yun was gentle as well.

The entire scene was like an ink wash painting, so beautiful it was intoxicating.

The women were mesmerized, even forgetting to speak.

It wasn't until the lights in the image went out that they snapped back to their senses.

Ye Qianqian looked at Gu Qingcheng:

"Qingcheng, it's your turn."

Gu Qingcheng was taken aback:

"What?"

Ye Qianqian smirked mischievously:

"Just teasing you."

Gu Qingcheng's face flushed:

"How boring."

But the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

...

The next day.

By the time Lin Yun and Liu Rumei emerged from the room, it was already noon.

The sunlight was just right, and the breeze was pleasant.

Liu Rumei wore a pale yellow long dress, her long hair flowing, with a lingering blush still on her face.

She held Lin Yun's arm, her smile gentle.

In the dining room, the women were already seated.

Gu Qingcheng sat in a corner, watching Liu Rumei, a hint of envy flashing in her eyes.

Ye Qianqian leaned in and whispered:

"Qingcheng, what's wrong?"

Gu Qingcheng shook her head:

"It's nothing."

Ye Qianqian looked at her:

"Do you want to tease Rumei?"

Gu Qingcheng's face reddened:

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Ye Qianqian laughed:

"Stop pretending, I can tell."

Gu Qingcheng said nothing, just looking at Liu Rumei.

Liu Rumei seemed to sense her gaze, turned her head, and smiled at her.

Gu Qingcheng smiled back, but felt a little disappointed deep down.

When would she get to tease Rumei?

How much longer would she have to wait for the next wedding?

Ye Qianqian patted her shoulder:

"Don't worry, it'll be your turn soon."

Gu Qingcheng's face turned even redder:

"I'm not in a hurry!"

Ye Qianqian smiled without saying a word.

Gu Qingcheng lowered her head, thinking silently to herself:

Should I... tease tonight?

No, no, that's too soon...

Wait a bit longer...

Just a bit longer...

Outside the window, the sunlight was just right.

...

After marrying the four beauties—Yun Shu, Ye Qianqian, Gu Qingcheng, and Liu Rumei—the Lin Family Manor became even more lively.

Sixteen wives, twenty-one children.

Every day for meals, two long tables had to be set: the children sat at one, and Lin Yun and his wives sat at the other.

Life was fulfilling and busy.

On the System's side, the rewards were incredibly generous.

The [Fertility Holy Body] activation progress reached sixteen percent.

His Martial Arts Talent rose from nearly Mystic Grade High-Tier to Xuan Grade Top Rank.

The "Yin-Yang Transformation Secret Record" also upgraded from mystic grade mid-tier to Xuan Grade Top Rank.

Its power surged, and the efficiency of Dual Cultivation doubled.

What delighted Lin Yun even more was that the System rewarded him with four more drops of martial dao golden core liquid.

Adding to the two drops left from before, he now had six.

"Enough, it's enough." Lin Yun looked at the brilliant golden Void Core in his Dantian, calculating silently, "With six drops, the Ten-Perfect Dao Pill should be complete."

In the following days, Lin Yun focused his attention on the four women: Yun Shu, and the others.

Cultivating by day and sowing seeds by night, he neglected neither.

Yun Shu was as gentle as water, quietly cooperating every time, but the tenderness hidden in her eyes could melt a person.

Ye Qianqian was heroic and spirited; though she would say "I don't want to," her body was honest, and she was more invested than anyone each time.

Gu Qingcheng was as cold as frost and had been incredibly shy on their wedding night, but after becoming familiar, she gradually opened up and would occasionally take the initiative.

Liu Rumei was the gentlest, speaking in soft whispers and moving with delicacy, but that kind of gentle trap was the most intoxicating.

Four women, four different charms; Lin Yun thoroughly enjoyed himself.

Through his hard work, over a month later, all four of them had successively become pregnant.

Yun Shu was the first, then Liu Rumei, followed by Gu Qingcheng, and finally Ye Qianqian.

The moment the news was announced, the whole family was in an uproar again.

Su Yingxue counted on her fingers:

"Four more pregnant women added to those already expecting... our family now has sixteen pregnant women?"

Qiao Feifei's eyes lit up:

"Sixteen! By this time next year, our family will have sixteen more children!"

Zhao Yiyi hugged her sister's arm:

"Sister, do you think the one in my belly is a boy or a girl?"

Zhao Muyi stroked her belly, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly:

"Either is fine."

Zhao Yiyi nodded:

"True. With Husband's Fertility Holy Body anyway, the children's talent is bound to be excellent."

The women burst into laughter together.

Lin Yun stood to the side, watching the lively house, his heart filled with satisfaction.

This was the life he wanted.

Wives living in harmony, children growing up healthy, and cultivation steadily improving.

What more could a man ask for?

...

A few more days passed.

Lin Yun finally found time to go to the Nine-Story Cultivation Tower.

At the highest floor, there was ten thousand times gravity and 200 times the concentration of cosmic energy.

He sat cross-legged and took out the six drops of martial dao golden core liquid from his Space Ring.

They glittered with golden light, their aura vast.

One drop, two drops, three drops...

Six drops, swallowed one after another.

The pure energy exploded inside his body like six small suns burning simultaneously, following the path of his Cultivation Technique and surging frantically into the Void Core in his Dantian.

The Void Core vibrated violently, its golden light intensifying!

The Ninth-Grade Void Core, which had already been condensed to the extreme, began to undergo a qualitative change under the influx of this energy.

It didn't get bigger or brighter, but rather...

It became more perfect.

The feeling was like a work of art being repeatedly polished in a craftsman's hands, where every cut was just right and every stroke was exquisite.

Round, transparent, perfect.

Lin Yun peered into his Dantian, watching the increasingly dazzling Void Core, his heart filled with shock.

A single drop of martial dao golden core liquid could raise a true Golden Core by one grade.

He had consumed so many drops, yet he still hadn't raised the Void Core to absolute Perfection.

The Dao Pellet was truly formidable.

Lin Yun opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air.

The cultivation progress of the Ten-Perfect Dao Pill was still a long way from true "Ten-Fold Perfection," but he wasn't worried.

...

After finishing his cultivation, Lin Yun walked out of the Nine-Story Tower.

The sunlight fell on him, feeling warm.

He suddenly remembered that he hadn't gone to see Shen Qingqiu in a long time.

Since returning from the Hunting Competition, he had been busy marrying wives, making babies, and cultivating, having no time to "harass" his teacher.

He missed her quite a bit.

With a slight smile on his lips, Lin Yun's figure flickered as he flew toward the Director of Practical Combat Department's office.

...

The office door was slightly ajar.

Lin Yun knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Shen Qingqiu's cool voice came from inside.

Lin Yun pushed the door open and entered.

Shen Qingqiu was sitting behind the desk, reading a document.

Today she wore a pale blue long dress, her long hair loose; she lacked her usual efficiency but gained a bit more soft beauty.

Lin Yun's eyes lit up at the sight.

"Teacher is truly beautiful today."
