753: Born, Su Xuan

Mortals carry a child for nine months, yet Han Xi had been pregnant for nearly five years.

The Immortal Realm.

The Su Family.

Su Chen stood guard at the door. He glanced toward it from time to time; even though he knew Han Xi and the child in her womb couldn't possibly have any issues, he still felt an instinctive worry in his heart.

Outside the courtyard, countless members of the Su Family were gathered. Su Qingtian's face was full of smiles; after so many years, he was finally going to hold a grandson.

He was about to become a grandfather.

Over these years, Su Qingtian hadn't much to do and had intended to give Su Chen a younger brother or sister, but he simply couldn't succeed. The stronger one's Realm, the more difficult it became to produce one's own Bloodline.

“Sigh, Chener has finally done us proud for once.”

“You can say that again. That rascal Su Xiao already has a house full of grandchildren, and Su Chen's child is only just being born.”

“Speaking of which, the Family Head's child must have an Aptitude so Heaven-Defying it's beyond imagination. Won't he be at the Dao Lord Realm right at birth? Only after I broke through to Dao Lord did I realize the vastness of time; even now, I cannot fathom it.”

“That's a given. Time is the Dao of Creation, the Lord of myriad daos—how terrifyingly powerful it is. The Dao I Cultivate has already reached the Rule Realm, and I've gained some insights into the Ancestral God Realm the Family Head mentioned. But even if I break through to Ancestral God, the gap between me and the Family Head would likely still be terrifying.”

Su Xiao spoke to the members of the Family, his voice filled with awe. Over these countless years, he had initially spent his time in secluded cultivation, but later, finding his Breakthroughs too slow, he began to marry and have children.

Even so, he had still broken through to the Rule Realm and was not far from the Ancestral God Realm.

However, breaking through to the Ancestral God Realm via the Great Dao of Time was a completely different concept compared to other Daos.

In truth, for the current Su Chen, he no longer had a Realm. Ancestral God was just a name he had chosen back then; to others, it was merely a Realm.

But for Su Chen, it wasn't a simple Realm.

It meant that Su Chen had completely mastered the Great Dao of Time and become the lord of time.

Su Yuanba suddenly felt quite sentimental: “Thinking back to Bright Moon City, Little Chen was right before our eyes. It feels like just yesterday, yet time has flown by, and countless years have passed.”

Su Yunqian also laughed along: “Exactly. Chener has always been able to do our Su Family proud and resolve our crises.”

The group laughed heartily; clearly, everyone was in an excellent mood.

Almost everyone who came was a core member of the Su Family—the original Direct Line—or their respective wives and children.

Cultivation was originally a very lonely and solitary path, but in the Su Family, they lived quite freely. When they weren't cultivating, they would form groups to go fishing together, the kind where they didn't use any immortal power.

Although these pastimes were quite ordinary, people are naturally competitive. They would compete over who caught more, making it interesting.

The sound of a baby crying rang out, and a middle-aged woman walked out of the room carrying a child.

“He's born! He's born!”

The Su Family members outside the courtyard were all extremely excited.

Su Chen also hurried forward. Standing beside him were his wives, their emotions somewhat complex.

They also wanted a child.

Unfortunately, it was very difficult.

Su Chen took the child. The baby's crying hadn't stopped yet, and a smile played on Su Chen's face.

He finally had a child of his own.

It was a baby boy.

“Husband, why does Xuan'er look so ordinary?”

Lin Yimeng stepped forward, a look of confusion in her eyes.

Su Xuan was the name of the child.

His other wives also crowded around. After sensing the aura within Su Xuan, they couldn't help but frown, confusion flashing in their eyes.

It was very unusual.

Su Chen was so terrifyingly powerful, and so many resources had been consumed during the pregnancy; how could the child be so mediocre?

Su Chen's face remained smiling: “Innate Perfection, a complete Dao. Although Xuan'er doesn't have a Heaven-Defying Aptitude, he is a perfectly complete person. This is an advantage no other Cultivator has. In the future, this child will have a natural affinity for all the myriad daos, and the Daos can be used by him as he pleases.”

There was nothing unusual about Su Xuan—no Chaos Physique, no special abilities—but he surpassed any Physique.

So that was it.

Everyone's expressions finally returned to normal. How could Su Chen's child possibly be mediocre?

Next.

The Su Family celebrated for three days. Su Qingtian made everyone Seal their cultivation and drink heavily. As a result, after just one day, many people were drinking until they were vomiting, and some even slept directly on the ground.

Even Su Chen, who had never been drunk before, was rendered unconscious from drinking after completely sealing his power and turning into a Mortal. Those people took turns pouring him drinks; Su Chen hadn't stopped once, drinking frantically.

The group from the Su Family drank until they were dead drunk and slept there for two whole days before waking up.

Su Chen immediately planned to flee. These people were truly too ruthless. Although drinking like this certainly wouldn't kill anyone, with their cultivation Sealed, the alcohol couldn't be digested. Having it settle in the body was truly uncomfortable.

Especially after drinking so much, it felt like his stomach was about to burst.

“What do you mean? Come back and keep drinking!”

“Little Chen, who gave you permission to leave? Keep drinking with me. It's been a long time since I've had such a satisfying drink.”

“Fill it up for him! Wait, who can get drunk off such a small cup? As the lord of time, Little Chen's drinking capacity is naturally the best in the world. Change it to a larger bowl for him—bring the basin over!”

The crowd seemed to have finally found a way to bully Su Chen. They all started jeering and dragged Su Chen back to continue drinking.

The result was that the group would drink, pass out, wake up, and continue drinking. They drank for an entire month straight, until Su Chen felt like he had been reduced to a heartless drinking machine.

From initial excitement to pain, then to waving them off in refusal, and finally to numbness.

Time flew by, and the Su Family was very peaceful and serene.

That boy Su Xuan grew up to be very handsome, showing the same good looks as Su Chen from a young age. He was also very playful and left the Su Family to go play when he was only three years old.

Although the current Su Family was within the Immortal Realm, they were hidden inside a Grotto-Heaven that no one could find.

Besides that.

The Divine Court still existed, and in recent years, it had appeared frequently in the Immortal Realm and the Myriad Realms, giving off an extremely mysterious vibe.

“Husband, Xuan'er has run off again.”

Han Xi came running over, her face showing a hint of helplessness. Su Xuan was simply too mischievous; he couldn't stay still in the Su Family and thought about running out to play every day.

Su Chen said with a faint smile, “Let him go. It's not like anything could happen to him. If he wants to go out and play, let him. There's no need to restrain him.”

Seeing this, Han Xi didn't say more. In truth, she was mainly worried that something might happen to Su Xuan.

Although she knew such a thing was impossible, as a mother, she still felt an inexplicable worry in her heart.

Although Su Xuan was very young—only a few years old—he was already a veritable Immortal King Cultivator.

Regarding Su Xuan's education, Su Chen had always adhered to the principle that too much is as bad as too little. Therefore, whether in terms of resources or cultivation guidance, Su Chen hadn't given much, trying to let Su Xuan experience things for himself. Otherwise, he would definitely have more than just an Immortal King cultivation by now...
