47: Chapter 47 The Third Son, the God of Wealth Descends

After sending away the Ziyang Saint, that courier, Li Xuan's days returned to peace.

A peace like a salted fish.

His daily life consisted of nothing more than checking in, taking care of the children, and sunbathing.

Ever since he sacrificed a Saint, the Luck of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty had been growing rapidly.

The concentration of Spiritual Qi in the Divine Dynasty was no longer inferior to those blessed lands.

One could dig up Spirit Medicine just by scratching the ground.

Every citizen of Great Xia benefited.

Ordinary people were free from all illnesses and had strong bodies.

Cultivators who had been stuck in a Bottleneck for years might even have a Breakthrough just by drinking a sip of cold water while walking down the road.

Li Xuan was very satisfied with all of this.

He lay on a rocking chair in the backyard, with iced Spirit Fruit and freshly brewed Enlightenment Tea placed on a small table beside him.

These days were wonderful.

Not far away.

Three-year-old Li Changsheng could already run and jump.

He was holding the ziyang divine tower, which had already acknowledged him as its master and could change size at will, playing happily.

He placed a hard iron walnut on a bluestone and raised the palm-sized purple tower.

"Ha!"

The little guy shouted in his milky voice, imitating the heroes in storybooks, and slammed the tower down onto the walnut with a bang.

The might of an Imperial Weapon was no trivial matter.

Let alone smashing a walnut, even a light touch should have instantly turned the bluestone and the walnut into powder.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out.

The iron walnut shattered in response, revealing the fragrant kernel inside.

The bluestone beneath it remained intact, without even a scratch.

If the Saints outside were to see this exquisite control of power, they would be ashamed of their own inferiority.

Li Changsheng cheered, picked up the kernel, and trotted over to Li Xuan.

He raised his little hand.

"Father, eat!"

"Good boy."

Li Xuan smiled, patted his head, took the kernel, and tossed it into his mouth.

On the other side, two-year-old Li Qingyue was much quieter.

She squatted by the lotus pond, resting her chin on her fair, tender little hands, curiously watching a red carp in the pond.

The carp seemed to be bewitched by something, constantly trying to get closer to her.

Li Qingyue extended her finger and pointed at the carp from a distance.

A beam of pure Lunar Power silently merged into the carp's body.

The carp gave a sudden jolt.

Two small bumps bulged on its smooth fish head.

Two long, thin whiskers like Dragon whiskers also grew beside its mouth.

An ordinary carp was actually transforming into a Dragon Carp.

Li Xuan was enjoying his leisurely parent-child time.

A palace maid ran over quickly, her face a mix of joy and urgency.

"Reporting to the Retired Emperor! Consort Su has gone into labor!"

Li Xuan's expression turned serious.

He put away his laziness, and his expression became gentle.

He stood up from the rocking chair and vanished instantly.

When he reappeared, he was already outside Su Muxue's sleeping quarters.

The sleeping quarters were brightly lit.

Dozens of the most experienced midwives and imperial physicians looked nervous.

Outside the sleeping quarters, the Human Emperor Li Ye and the Empress were pacing back and forth.

"Grandfather!"

Li Ye saw Li Xuan, and as if he had found his backbone, he quickly stepped forward.

Li Xuan nodded at him without saying a word.

His gaze penetrated the palace wall and landed on the inner chamber.

Sweat soaked the temples on that face, which was gritting its teeth to endure the labor pains.

He did not go in, but simply stood outside the door.

A gentle yet powerful aura enveloped the entire sleeping quarters.

Su Muxue's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and the pain in her body lessened significantly.

Time passed.

Finally.

"Wah!"

A loud cry of an infant rang out from the sleeping quarters.

The crying instantly spread throughout the imperial palace and even spread outside the Imperial Capital of Great Xia.

This cry was full of energy and actually triggered a resonance with the Dao.

Everyone who heard the cry, no matter what they were doing, felt their minds clear.

Some difficult problems in their cultivation suddenly became clear at this moment!

Everyone had not yet recovered from this wonder.

The real anomaly began!

Above the clear and cloudless Imperial Capital of Great Xia, wind and clouds gathered.

They were not dark clouds.

They were boundless golden auspicious clouds.

The auspicious clouds rolled, with ten thousand rays of golden light and a thousand strands of auspicious Qi.

The entire Imperial Capital of Great Xia was illuminated to be magnificent and resplendent.

Immediately after, a rain of light fell from the auspicious clouds.

That was not rainwater, but golden specks of light condensed from pure Spiritual Qi, falling in abundance.

The light rain fell on the glazed tiles, and the tiles instantly became crystal clear, as if cast from divine gold.

The light rain fell on the flowers, plants, and trees, and ordinary plants grew rapidly, instantly blooming with Spirit Flowers and exotic fruits containing the rhyme of the Dao.

The light rain fell on people, and a warmth exuded from the inside out, making them feel comfortable throughout, and their cultivation even secretly improved.

This was not the end!

As the light rain fell, a gurgling sound came from deep underground in the imperial palace.

Something was about to break through the ground.

Boom!

A soft sound.

A spring suddenly appeared on the ground of the backyard.

What gushed out from the spring was not spring water.

It was a white liquid as thick as milk.

As soon as the liquid appeared, it emitted a rich fragrance.

Just by taking a breath of it, the cultivation Bottleneck loosened.

The ground gushed with Spirit Spring!

Above in the sky, the golden auspicious clouds rolled even more violently.

Huge phantoms composed of light and shadow appeared in the clouds.

There were divine iron veins burning with golden flames throughout.

There were colorful glazed mountains that towered into the clouds and were carved from crystal.

There were Dragon-patterned gold mines buried deep underground, nurturing phantoms of divine Dragons.

Countless phantoms of legendary Heaven And Earth Treasure and divine mineral fairy gold appeared in turn above the firmament, emitting treasure light.

The treasury of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty.

The treasury manager and several guards who were counting the accounts were dumbfounded by this celestial phenomenon.

They rushed out of the warehouse, looked up at the strange spectacle in the sky, and were about to kneel and worship.

Suddenly, a guard pointed inside the warehouse and shouted stutteringly.

"Manager! Look! There's a ghost in the warehouse!"

The treasury manager turned his head to look and was stunned.

The piles of gold and silver ingots, which were like mountains, were now all emitting a layer of hazy treasure light.

Fine Spiritual Qi patterns even automatically generated on some of the gold ingots.

"This… has the gold become sentient?!"

A guard gathered his courage and reached out to touch a glowing silver ingot.

As soon as his fingertips touched the silver ingot, pure Spiritual Qi surged into his body.

He jumped up suddenly, his face flushed red.

"Spirit Stone! Manager! These gold and silver are turning into Spirit Stone!!"

The treasury manager stumbled, almost fainting with excitement.

"We're rich! My Great Xia Divine Dynasty is going to be rich!!"

He couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

Outside the sleeping quarters, Li Xuan stood with his hands behind his back.

Looking at this celestial phenomenon caused by the birth of his child, he smiled.

His eldest son was an Ancient Desolate Saint Body, with an anomaly of Sword Qi for three thousand li.

His second daughter was a Lunar Body, with an anomaly of the Lunar Star descending to the mortal world.

This third child he hadn't met yet had caused such a big commotion, with wealth aura soaring to the sky.

This destiny was truly one of a kind.

At this moment, a familiar prompt sounded in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for the birth of your third child!]

[Detected that this child is born with the "God of Wealth Destiny" and possesses the supreme talent of "Treasure Gathering Basin"!]

[Detected the birth of a child, Luck is prosperous, triggering the child's feedback!]

[Reward for Host: Cultivation Empowerment! Congratulations to the Host for a cultivation Breakthrough, successfully entering the first level of the "Venerable Realm"!]

[Reward for Host: Lifestyle Divine Ability — "Midas Touch"!]

Boom!

The System prompt ended.

A powerful force surged into Li Xuan's body and Divine Soul.

This was not a simple increase in power.

It was an essential leap in the level of life.

His body and Soul were forcibly shattered at this moment.

Then, they were reorganized into a higher, more Advanced form closer to the "Dao".

His relationship with this world changed from a tenant to an owner.

Li Xuan opened his eyes.

The world had become completely different.

He could see the lines of Law flowing in the air.

He could hear the rhythmic pulse coming from deep underground.

A thought flashed through his mind.

He could make the dead wood in front of him bloom with brilliant flowers instantly.

He casually picked up a white jade teacup from the stone table.

The moment his fingers touched the teacup.

Hum!

A soft ring.

That ordinary white jade teacup quickly became transparent and pure in his hand.

There was even Spiritual Qi glow circulating inside.

In the blink of an eye, an ordinary teacup had become a Magical Artifact carved from top-grade Spirit Jade.

Midas Touch.

This Divine Ability, regardless of its practicality, was very impressive.

Creak.

The door of the sleeping quarters was opened.

The midwife came out holding an infant in golden swaddling clothes, beaming with joy, and knelt on the ground.

"Congratulations to the Retired Emperor, congratulations to the Retired Emperor! Consort Su has given birth to a little prince, and both mother and child are safe!"

Everyone looked at the infant.

Li Xuan stepped forward and carefully took the little life that had just come into the world from the midwife's hands.

The little guy did not cry or fuss, but just opened his dark, bright eyes, curiously looking around.

He was born as delicate as jade, looking extremely cute.

Li Xuan held him, and a thought actually arose in his heart.

Today, his financial Luck would be especially good, the kind where he could pick up treasures when going out.

The little guy in the swaddling clothes grinned with his toothless mouth and laughed.

Along with his laughter, his tightly clenched little fists slowly opened.

In his palm, a small gold ingot, the size of a fingernail, emitting a soft golden light, appeared out of thin air.

It was engraved with four ancient characters meaning "May wealth and prosperity come to you."

Seeing this scene, Li Xuan also laughed.

"Born with the 'God of Wealth Destiny' and possessing the 'Treasure Gathering Basin' talent… this little guy is indeed a lucky star."

He lowered his head, kissed the chubby little face, and said gently:

"Since you like gold ingots so much, from now on, you shall be called Li Yuanbao."
