193: Spiritual beauty and spiritual essence breakthrough

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for three descendants entering the Martial Artist path, obtained Second-grade top-tier Talisman Master experience.]

Just as Liu Xuan was instructing his Eldest Son, Daoyuan, a System prompt sounded in his mind.

'Lingxiu and Lingyun, have they made a Breakthrough?'

He swept his Divine Sense toward the martial arts practice field below and sure enough, saw his two daughters meditating in a separate martial arts room.

Both had flushed faces, their bodies wreathed in wisps of Qi and blood energy; it was clear they had just achieved a Breakthrough to the Muscle and Bone Realm.

After three months, these two girls had finally achieved a Breakthrough too!

Although it was much slower than their Eldest Son, Daoyuan, who achieved a Breakthrough in a single day, for other Martial Artists, this was already considered the work of a Genius!

A quarter of an hour later.

Lingxiu and Lingyun grew accustomed to the surging Qi and blood within their bodies, tidied their skirts, and hurried over to inform Liu Xuan.

"Father!!"

"Father!"

"I have achieved a Breakthrough to the Muscle and Bone Realm and become a true Martial Artist!"

"I have also achieved a Breakthrough!"

They wore the Merchant Alliance's martial robes patterned with Black Crystal Bees, their hair tied in high ponytails, looking extremely capable.

Liu Xuan nodded with a smile, "Good! Very good! You both did well; you did not disappoint your father!"

With his two daughters achieving a Breakthrough, he clearly felt his cultivation improve slightly. Within his dao foundation, it was as if three tiny springs had appeared, and with the Cultivation of his three Martial Artist children, his cultivation was improving at every moment.

Moreover, when his children stepped onto the Martial Artist path, the System would also provide gifts. Theoretically speaking, he could just lie flat now and wait for the children to grow up one by one and start to Cultivate.

"I will hold a celebration for you in a few days; let your mother put some effort into preparing it!"

The status of Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang could not compare to Lin Xue'er, and the talent of Lingxiu and Lingyun was not as outstanding as Daoyuan's, so the scale of the celebration would certainly not compare to the previous one.

However, Liu Xuan did not want to appear too biased. No matter what, there had to be at least an internal celebration for the Family so that everyone in the household knew he valued every child.

"Now that you have entered the Martial Artist path, you can begin to take over the affairs of the Merchant Alliance and various Family industries."

"The management of the lakeside Merchant Alliance market, the operations of the Vast Gathering Pavilion, the Spirit Stone fields of White Crane Lake, the orchard managers... what are you interested in? Do you have any plans?"

The Liu Family had many industries, and their businesses were spread wide. Previously, they were all managed by the Yongning immortal-cultivating families that had joined the Merchant Alliance. Now that the children were grown, it was time for them to gradually take over.

Spirit Stones were Spirit Stones, and power was power. Through the Liu Family industries, the children would gain power, and with the massive amount of Spirit Stones in Liu Xuan's hands supporting them, there would be no obstacles on the path of Cultivation.

'Once the matter of True Person Xiao is resolved, these children who have grown up will be able to gradually enter the Sect and control its power.'

'At that time, by radiating from the Sect to cover the thousands of miles of the Red Pine Sect region, the Foundation of the Liu Clan will be completely solidified!'

"Hmm..."

The eldest daughter, Lingxiu, tilted her head in thought, and a moment later she replied, "Daughter is not interested in these!"

She looked at Liu Xuan embarrassedly and fidgeted, "Daughter wants to follow the First Madam and Aunt Miao to teach the younger brothers and sisters."

The First Madam she referred to was Lin Xue'er. At first, Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang called her that, and later, everyone got used to it and followed suit.

Liu Xuan was stunned; he hadn't expected this girl Lingxiu to have such an idea. He looked at Lingyun beside her, "What about you?"

"I am the same as my sister," she said quietly.

In fact, their mother had already talked to them about this today. Teaching the younger brothers and sisters was not actually their own idea, but rather something Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang had instructed them to say.

The future of the Liu Family was limitless; this was something most Concubines could clearly see.

Taking over the Merchant Alliance business and various industries was fine, but how could it compare to working within the Family?

"Alright then!" Liu Xuan nodded slightly, "As long as you like it, just make sure to listen to the First Madam and your Aunt Miao."

Lingxiu and Lingyun had good personalities and treated their younger brothers and sisters very well. Liu Xuan also thought it was good that they wanted to help Lin Xue'er teach them.

"Thank you, Father!"

"Thank you, Father!"

The two women bowed happily, and Liu Xuan waved his hand. They hopped and skipped away to share the good news with their respective mothers.

After Lingxiu and Lingyun left, Zhang Kexin, who was beside Liu Xuan, touched her slightly protruding lower abdomen, "When will my children be able to grow as tall as them?"

This was Zhang Kexin's second pregnancy. Ever since she had been with Liu Xuan, she had immediately accepted all of Liu Xuan's shortcomings. Every day, her mind was filled with thoughts of Liu Xuan. Liu Xuan liked children, so she liked children too.

"You!" Liu Xuan smiled and stroked her hair, "Don't think about these things every day. You have a Third-grade Spirit Root; you should spend more effort on your Cultivation!"

This girl, Zhang Kexin, was the most lovesick person Liu Xuan had ever met. Ever since she became his woman, she didn't do anything all day but want to stick to him.

She didn't care that this delayed her cultivation. If it weren't for Liu Xuan's ability to assist in Cultivation, her cultivation would probably have remained stagnant for the past two years.

"Husband, do you think I'm carrying two boys or two girls? Or maybe twins?"

She raised her pretty face to look at Liu Xuan, clearly not taking Liu Xuan's words to heart.

"You've already asked that eight hundred times!" Liu Xuan said helplessly, "Regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, I like them all!"

Ever since the midwife told her a few days ago that she was pregnant with twins, this girl would ask Liu Xuan this question from time to time.

"Hmph~"

She glanced at Liu Xuan with a coquettish pout, very dissatisfied with his perfunctory attitude.

"Sigh!" She sighed, her expression drooping, "Yun'er's Spiritual Root talent is average. I wonder if theirs will be a bit better!"

Zhang Kexin was talking about her first child, Liu Daoyun, who had just turned three recently and was tested to have only a Sixth-grade Spiritual Root.

A Sixth-grade Spiritual Root was already quite good for many people, belonging to the middle Third-grade Spiritual Roots.

But Zhang Kexin herself had a Third-grade Spirit Root, so she had very high expectations for her children's Spiritual Roots, which had led her to dwell on it these days, feeling sad from time to time.

Mainly, Liu Xuan placed great importance on the children's Spiritual Roots, and she could clearly feel that Liu Xuan preferred those children with good Spiritual Root talent.

"Rest assured!"

"Yun'er's Sixth-grade Spiritual Root is already very good, better than most children's!"

Liu Xuan placed his hand over hers, which was resting on her lower abdomen, and said warmly, "You are carrying my first pair of twins; I predict their talent definitely won't be bad!"

Liu Xuan was very patient with Zhang Kexin and was willing to spend time with her. Unlike most other Concubines, this girl was with him because she truly liked him, not because it was mixed with a large amount of self-interest.

"I hope so!"

Zhang Kexin leaned into Liu Xuan's arms with a happy smile on her face; she could feel that Liu Xuan truly cared about her.

In the past, she cared about Liu Xuan being unfaithful and having too many women, but now she had long since gotten used to it...

She did not ask for Liu Xuan to treat only her well; as long as Liu Xuan had a place for her in his heart, that was enough!
