115: How many children do you want to have?

Walking out of the Cultivation Room, Liu Xuan's aura slowly settled, his heartbeat steady and powerful, returning to a normal state. He looked no different from an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator.

The door to the Talisman Quiet Room next to him was tightly shut, with two small children squatting at the entrance, playing with stones.

One was a small boy, the other a small girl, both around two years old, dressed in luxurious brocade, like immortal children.

"Xiao Fu, Xiao Le, where are your mothers?"

The two children were Qin Yun's son, Liu Daofu, and Yan Qingyao's daughter, Liu Lingyue.

"Daddy!"

"Daddy!"

Little Lingyue dropped the smooth small stone in her hand and happily ran over to hug Liu Xuan's leg.

Little Daofu was more reserved, but he also ran over, still clutching the stone in his hand.

"Why are you two playing here alone? Where are your mothers?" Liu Xuan squatted down, picked up Lingyue, and asked.

Little Lingyue's smiling face disappeared, her mouth curving slightly downwards, and she said aggrievedly, "Mommy is very busy and doesn't have time to play with Yue'er."

Little Daofu also added, "Auntie Yan needs to Cultivate, draw Talismans, and practice Spells. Usually, my mother plays with us."

He pointed his small hand towards the Talisman Quiet Room, "Today, Mommy also needs to draw Talismans, so we're playing by ourselves."

Liu Xuan understood. Yan Qingyao was dedicated to Cultivation. Ever since she was poisoned by the Spirit Dispersion Water, she almost never missed an opportunity to improve herself. It was normal for her to neglect her daughter's care.

When Lingyue was an infant, it was fine; Yan Qingyao wouldn't just leave her alone.

But once Lingyue was over a year old and could walk on her own, Qin Yun basically looked after both children simultaneously.

If Qin Yun also had something to do, then the children could only play by themselves.

After some thought, Liu Xuan carried his daughter, held his son's hand, and walked into the Talisman Quiet Room.

Qin Yun was concentrating on drawing a Talisman when she was disturbed by the movement at the door. A Talisman was instantly ruined, turning into wisps of black smoke.

"Husband?"

Qin Yun looked at Liu Xuan in confusion.

"Senior Sister Qin, I plan to take these two children back to the Liu Family in the county town for their upbringing. Are you willing, Senior Sister?"

Daofu has a Ninth-Grade Spirit Root, and Lingyue has a Seventh-Grade Spirit Root. Both are children with Spiritual Roots, and their education cannot be neglected.

"This..."

"Does Husband have time to look after them?"

Qin Yun wasn't overly reluctant; she was just worried that Liu Xuan also wouldn't have time to care for them, and then the children would be bullied in the Sect.

"My elder sister is very fond of children. When I'm not around, I'll entrust them to her care."

"The Liu Family has many maids and servants, making it convenient to care for children. Moreover, there are many children in the manor, and we've hired special teachers for group instruction. Being with other children will also help them grow better."

Qin Yun thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright! We'll do as you say."

The Liu Family is not far from White Crane Lake. If she misses her son, she can go see him anytime.

When she has time, it's not impossible to bring her son back directly.

"Daddy!"

"Are you sending us away? Yue'er doesn't want to leave Auntie Qin, doesn't want to leave Mommy."

Lingyue's small face looked even more aggrieved, but she didn't cry.

"How could Daddy send Yue'er away?"

Liu Xuan pinched her little face and said with a smile, "Daddy is taking you to a good place where there are many brothers and sisters to play with you."

"And if you miss Auntie Qin or Mommy, Daddy can bring you back again."

"Really?"

Lingyue was both a little longing and a little worried, but more than that, she was reluctant to leave her mother.

Yan Qingyao didn't spend much time with her, but being with her mother was when she was happiest.

"Of course it's true!"

Liu Xuan carried his children out of the Talisman Quiet Room and then went to inform Yan Qingyao.

Yan Qingyao didn't hesitate and agreed immediately. She had long considered this plan; even if Liu Xuan hadn't mentioned it, she would have brought it up to him later.

She didn't have time to care for her daughter, but she also hoped her daughter could be happy and grow up well... Liu Family.

Liu Xuan led little Daofu and little Lingyue into the backyard and immediately heard a burst of children's laughter.

The number of children in the Liu Family was no less than in the Sect's Talisman Master's Small Courtyard: children of the maids, She Xiaorong's children, Xia He's children, Bai Zhiwei's children... a total of more than twenty, big and small.

Xia He and She Xiaorong were usually quite busy, and some of the maids who had work to do were also busy, so they all entrusted their children to the care of servants, under the unified supervision of Liu Xuan's elder sister, Liu Miao.

"Little brother! How many children do you intend to have? Aren't you Cultivating?"

There were over twenty children in the Liu Family, and he heard that the number of children in the Sect was about the same, at least forty or fifty.

How many years has it been?!

From time to time, several maids in the manor would get pregnant again. Liu Miao was completely numb!

"Isn't it good to have many children?"

Liu Xuan pointed to the group of children in the courtyard, "They are all the hope of our Liu Family. Look how cute they are!"

No sooner had he spoken than a child suddenly burst into tears. A servant immediately ran to comfort him, "Young Master Daoyun, what's wrong?"

The child was She Xiaorong's son, Liu Daoyun. He wiped his tears and pointed at another child nearby, "He snatched my toy!"

"You're lying, it's clearly mine!" The other child was Ye Manqing's son, Liu Daodan. Although he was physically smaller than Liu Daoyun, he could easily snatch the toy.

"Wah wah wah~"

"I'm going to tell Auntie to spank your bottom!"

Little Daoyun cried for a while, then ran angrily towards Liu Miao to complain.

"Daddy?"

"Daddy is back!"

Suddenly, he saw Liu Xuan next to Liu Miao, instantly forgetting what had just happened, and ran to Liu Xuan, shouting.

The shouting quickly attracted the other children.

"Daddy!"

"Daddy!"

...A group of children gathered around.

Daofu and Lingyue were confused!

Wasn't Daddy *their* Daddy? Why were they all calling him Daddy?

A group of children looked at Liu Xuan eagerly, their eyes filled with excitement.

Liu Xuan took out a jade box from his sleeve, inside which were small, dark pills.

"One for each of you, and no snatching, understood?"

"Understood!"

"Understood!"

...The voices were perfectly synchronized.

The black pills were made from black crystal honey combined with some gentle Spirit Medicine. They weren't Medicinal Pills, but rather sugar pills, perfect for children to eat.

With something to eat, the children finally quieted down, each licking their sugar pill, showing expressions of enjoyment.

Liu Xuan also took one himself and put it in his mouth, then handed the rest to Liu Miao, "It's quite delicious and also beneficial for the body. Sister, you should try one too."

After spending some time with the children, Liu Xuan explained Daofu and Lingyue's situation to Liu Miao and asked her to give them extra attention.

Liu Miao was kind-hearted and loved children. Liu Xuan felt very relieved entrusting his children to her care.

This was recognized by Xia He, She Xiaorong, and all the maids in the Liu Family; otherwise, everyone wouldn't have felt comfortable entrusting their children to her care.
