1: Lucid dream? Or time travel?

' What's going on? '

' Where did this beauty come from? '

On a bed five meters long and three meters wide, Liu Xuan stared in bewilderment at the stunning woman in ancient attire in his arms.

The woman was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate features, wearing a light green ancient-style long dress, her beautiful hair draped casually over her shoulders, looking like a Fairy who had stepped out of a painting.

He turned his head to look around.

Wooden furniture with exquisite carvings, porcelain vases that looked very expensive, and candlesticks emitting a bright glow...

An unfamiliar environment and an unfamiliar person gave him a mild sense of insecurity.

Subconsciously, he withdrew his hand from around the beauty's waist, sat up on the bed, moved back a little, and asked her: " Beauty, who... who are you? "

" Brother Xuan, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly stop? " The young girl adjusted the clothes at her chest, her pretty face slightly flushed, with a hint of resentment in her tone.

" Miss Qingyao? "

Liu Xuan's mind suddenly flashed with the girl's name, along with some fragmented information.

The girl was named Yan Qingyao, and he knew her; the two of them seemed to be... seemed to be classmates? Fellow townsfolk?

His head felt a bit dizzy, and Liu Xuan felt that his mental state was a bit off; his thoughts were very scattered.

Shaking his head slightly, he steadied himself and thought about his current situation.

' Transmigration? Dreaming? '

' My most recent memory is... '

He remembered! He was a college student who had just graduated on Blue Star, and his most recent memory was staying up late reading a novel...

He hadn't been hit by a truck, hadn't been electrocuted by a leaky power strip, and hadn't fallen into the water while trying to save someone.

He wasn't dead! He was just sleeping.

It definitely wasn't Transmigration; it must be a dream!

' A lucid dream?! '

" What a great opportunity! "

" Brother Xuan, what's wrong? " Yan Qingyao also sat up and leaned closer to Liu Xuan, checking his body with concern, " Are you feeling unwell somewhere? Should I call a doctor? "

So fragrant!

So soft!

So beautiful!

As expected of a dreamscape I imagined myself!

Yan Qingyao's appearance perfectly matched Liu Xuan's aesthetic preferences: willow-leaf eyebrows, large eyes, and skin as tender as a baby's, enough to squeeze water out of.

Her figure was curvaceous and well-proportioned, neither fat nor thin, with a slender waist and long legs, and she had a faint, refreshing fragrance on her body.

A beauty of this level could be called a Fairy without any exaggeration; even those internet celebrity stars with makeup, filters, and beautification were nothing compared to her.

" I'm fine! " Liu Xuan took Yan Qingyao's jade hand and gently stroked it, while carefully examining her stunningly beautiful face.

Sure enough! He discovered a flaw; there was a slight sense of blurriness on Yan Qingyao's face.

It was this slight blurriness that made him even more certain that this was a dream.

The realism was ninety-nine percent; the quality of this lucid dream was quite high!

" That's good! " Yan Qingyao patted her chest, as if relieved, and said coquettishly: " If Brother Xuan is unwell, Qingyao will be very sad! "

" Miss Qingyao, how about... we continue? "

Liu Xuan was in a hurry; he had encountered lucid dreams a few times before, and generally, when he realized he was dreaming, he wasn't far from waking up for real.

Opportunities don't wait; he had to seize the time to get down to business!

" Qingyao is already Brother Xuan's person; you can do whatever you want to me. " Yan Qingyao lowered her head, not daring to look into Liu Xuan's eyes, her small face turning even redder.

How could Liu Xuan be polite? He pulled Yan Qingyao into his arms and began to grope her.

" Mmm~ "

" Hmm? "

This feeling! Isn't it a bit too real?

' Forget it! Enjoy it first, then worry about it later. '

...

" Clang!!! "

Just as he was about to take the final step, a grand bell toll exploded in his mind.

His head was buzzing.

" Hahaha!! This brat actually dares to covet our Miss Qingyao; it's simply wishful thinking! "

" He looks decent enough, but who would have thought he's a lecher in secret. "

" Indulging in illusions and unable to extricate himself, his Heart-Nature is extremely poor; I fear this person won't pass the assessment! "

...

Liu Xuan came to his senses and found himself standing on a white jade platform, surrounded by wisps of white mist.

Below the platform was an ancient-style grand hall and a crowd of people watching him; these people were all dressed in ancient-style clothing, only it looked more luxurious than in TV dramas.

The crowd was discussing him, some glaring at him, some with sneers on their lips, saying things he didn't quite understand.

" What's going on here too?? "

His head hurt even more, as if something was drilling into his brain, and he could barely maintain his thoughts.

' Multiple dream layers? '

' Did the scene change? '

It's just a dream! Unrestrained and imaginative, it's already unreasonable, so changing scenes is very normal; it's just a pity about such a stunning beauty, just one step away!

" Liu Xuan, from a farming family in Yongning, Ninth-Grade Spirit Root, excellent grades at the Dao Academy, Heart-Nature is lowest grade, failed the assessment! "

Just as Liu Xuan was dazed, a talisman paper recording his assessment information flew from below the platform into his hand.

Holding the talisman and looking down, the person speaking was a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe.

This person had an indifferent expression, showing no joy or anger, and had an invisible Aura about him.

Li Hua, an outer sect deacon of the Red Pine Sect and an examiner for the outer sect assessment, with a cultivation level of Qi Refining the fourth layer; when Liu Xuan saw him, his identity information appeared in his mind.

Looking closely at the people around him: Chang Dan, Wang Xiaokang, Ye Xun, Zhao Li, and also Yan Qingyao.

Quite a few familiar faces, they were Liu Xuan's fellow townsfolk from the Yongning Dao Academy, and they had come together to participate in the Red Pine Sect outer sect assessment...

' This isn't a dream?!! '

The Fusion of two memories made Liu Xuan's head dizzy and accompanied by pain; he stood stunned on the platform, a look of pain appearing on his face.

" What are you still standing there for? Hurry down! " Li Hua's majestic voice echoed, and even the people discussing him quieted down.

" Oh, okay! "

Liu Xuan walked down from the white jade platform in a daze, returned to his position, and closed his eyes to rest, his mind in a mess.

" Next, Wang Xiaokang! "

Li Hua called out Wang Xiaokang's name.

Wang Xiaokang was from the same Dao Academy as Liu Xuan, and his position was right next to Liu Xuan; Liu Xuan's performance just now had made him fearful of the assessment, and he dawdled for a while before walking onto the platform.

Liu Xuan had no mind to watch others' assessments, because the sound of the System activating rang in his mind:

[ Ding! Many Children, Much Fortune System activated. ]

[ Many Children, Much Fortune System: The Host can obtain System gifts by conceiving offspring, and the strength of all the Host's children will be added to the Host. ]

System?

Since the System has appeared, it must be Transmigration without a doubt!

Liu Xuan was well-read, and although what happened today was a bit bizarre, he was still able to accept it quickly.

' Many Children, Much Fortune System; as long as I take a wife and have children, I can become stronger. What a good thing! '

Studying it in his mind, this Many Children, Much Fortune System didn't have any newbie gift packs, nor could it communicate; according to the System description, it was estimated that it needed the child to be born to activate.

Failing the assessment is fine; it's no big deal. With this Many Children, Much Fortune System, as long as I stay low-key and have children, I can become stronger. Whether I join this so-called Red Pine Sect or not doesn't matter.
