493: Chapter 493 Stable

The matter of Li Xuanxuan was merely a small interlude; though this man had targeted him for many years, he had never once regarded the other party as a rival.

If not for this unexpected incident, Liu Xuan would have almost forgotten about him!

When horizons differ, the perspective on things changes; Li Xuanxuan had long since ceased to be worth the energy it took to deal with him.

There was no great pleasure of revenge, only a faint sense of sentimentality.

"Liu Xuan!!"

"Where is the follow-up to the Cultivation Technique you promised me? Hand it over."

In the backyard of the Liu residence, while Liu Xuan was feeling sentimental, Bai Jie charged in aggressively.

A few days ago, Bai Jie had completely comprehended the Foundation Establishment portion of the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture, but Liu Xuan had been slow to give her the Golden Core portion.

"I promised to give you the follow-up last time, and I've already given you the Foundation Establishment part. I never promised to keep giving it to you!" Liu Xuan said leisurely, looking calm and composed.

"You..." Bai Jie's willow-leaf brows arched; she knew it was impossible for Liu Xuan to give her such a high-level Cultivation Technique for nothing.

"What do you want me to do? Just say it!"

After comprehending the Foundation Establishment part of the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture, Bai Jie was certain that this was a Yao Race Cultivation Technique that was super compatible with her cultivation; she had to get it from Liu Xuan no matter what.

"What do I want you to do?"

Liu Xuan stood up with a thoughtful expression, then leaned toward Bai Jie. "I don't want you to do anything else. Give birth to a child for me first."

"No way!" Bai Jie flatly refused, then stammered, "Change... to another condition."

"Then there's nothing to talk about?" Liu Xuan spread his hands. "For such a precious Cultivation Technique, if you won't bear a child, what else can you trade with?"

Bai Jie stared at Liu Xuan, hesitating for a long time. "Anyway, it's just a no. You must change the condition."

Liu Xuan was starting to get impatient when he suddenly saw his Yu Chi, Yu Chi, sitting properly at a small table learning to write. His heart stirred.

"I'll give you one more chance. Become the technique teacher for my daughter, Yu Chi, and the Golden Core portion of the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture can be yours."

Yu Chi possessed the fifth-rank Chi Tiger Bloodline, so the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture was very important to her—unlike Tong Xiao, who had a top-tier sixth-rank Bloodline and for whom the technique was optional.

Liu Xuan was busy with many affairs and couldn't focus on teaching. Since Bai Jie was cultivating the True Dragon Fate Reversal Scripture, she could serve as his daughter's exclusive teacher.

"And what about the complete Cultivation Technique?" Bai Jie pressed.

Liu Xuan's expression darkened slightly. "Teacher Bai, as a Yao, one shouldn't be too greedy. I've said it before: if you want the complete technique, you must bear a child!"

"I don't have much patience; you should understand that!"

Bai Jie had followed Liu Xuan for so many years by order; how could she not know his temperament?

Either she gave up the technique, or she could only agree to Liu Xuan's conditions. There was no other choice.

"Fine! I will be your daughter's teacher."

"As for the complete technique... allow me to consider it for a while."

Bai Jie was actually wavering; it was just that a long-held conviction was collapsing, and she needed time to slowly accept it.

She had cultivated Human Race techniques for many years. Besides her persistent beliefs, she also harbored doubts and worries about the future Liu Xuan promised.

When cultivating Human Race techniques, the Dao Heart is extremely important. Once a conviction is abandoned, there is no turning back.

Liu Xuan nodded with satisfaction, walked over to his daughter, crouched down to pat her shoulder, and then pointed at the approaching Bai Jie. "Little Yu Chi, how about Daddy lets this Teacher Bai teach you your lessons?"

Yu Chi looked back at Bai Jie twice, then looked steadily at Liu Xuan, her large black eyes welling up with a layer of mist.

"Daddy, don't you want Yu Chi anymore?"

The slightly sobbing, cute voice, combined with a wronged expression as if she were about to cry, made Liu Xuan's heart ache.

The lethality of a cute child was indeed extraordinary, making this old father Liu Xuan feel terribly distressed.

"How could Daddy not want Yu Chi?" Liu Xuan reached out and patted her small shoulder to comfort her. "Teacher Bai was specially invited by Daddy to teach Yu Chi her lessons. That way, you won't be lonely when Daddy isn't around!"

"Really?"

"Teacher Bai looks so scary; I'm afraid!"

The little girl shrunk into Liu Xuan's embrace. Her gaze toward Bai Jie didn't seem like fear, but more like curiosity.

"Don't be afraid!"

"If she bullies you, tell Daddy, and Daddy will help you teach her a lesson!"

Liu Xuan glared at Bai Jie, gesturing for her not to look so cold and icy, as she was scaring the child.

Bai Jie was helpless and forced a strained, awkward smile onto her face as she stepped forward to help coax the child.

To think that she, a dignified Nascent Soul Demon Lord, was actually being made to be a teacher for a small child by this fellow Liu Xuan—it was simply ridiculous!!

However, strangely enough, looking at Liu Xuan, it didn't seem like he was trying to humiliate her or had some other motive; he really just wanted to better teach his daughter her lessons!

Having followed Liu Xuan for so many years, Bai Jie could understand many things he did, except for the degree of importance he placed on his children, which she could never fathom.

...

Half a year later.

During this half-year, the Liu Family had constant happy events. Liu Dao Long and Liu Ling Feng both achieved a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment. Along with the tenth-ranked Dao Ping and the fifteenth-ranked Dao An, four Foundation Establishment Cultivators were born in just half a year.

The next few years would be an explosive period for the Liu residence's younger generation to break through to Foundation Establishment. The older ones had accumulated enough, while the younger ones had better talent. Coupled with the increasingly better conditions provided by Liu Xuan, many disciples were accelerating their Breakthroughs.

It couldn't be helped! The Liu Family's conditions were too good!

The Enlightenment Tower, Body Tempering in the underground Yin Fiend Hall, a Nascent Soul True Lord personally preaching the Dao, customized high-rank Medicinal Pills...

Any one of these was a resource that even Core Disciples of great Sects would find hard to obtain, yet in the Liu Family, most people could get several, or even all of them.

Furthermore, the most Heaven-Defying thing was the foundation establishment pill Liu Xuan gave them. As long as they could touch the Foundation Establishment Bottleneck, they were certain to break through. It was practically a mass-produced cheat.

To this day, the number of Liu Xuan's offspring with a cultivation of Foundation Establishment or above had reached twenty-five, along with three hundred Qi Refining Cultivators and hundreds of Martial Arts Cultivators who had not yet begun cultivating techniques.

Although the Eldest Son Dao Yuan was still far from the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, he had already entered the threshold of the Great Five Elements Hunyuan Method. Future Breakthroughs were only a matter of time.

The one whose cultivation grew the fastest was Tong Xiao. This kid was at the Peak of Foundation Establishment and was about to touch the Golden Core Bottleneck. If he broke through, Liu Xuan would immediately advance to the Late Golden Core Stage.

Actually, even without him breaking through, Liu Xuan was close to the Late Golden Core Stage; it would be a matter of two years at most.

"The number of offspring is nearing nine hundred; I'll get another grand prize then. One thousand is also close, which will be a super grand prize!"

"Stable and peaceful development is truly wonderful!!"

If the war were to subside now, the 'lying flat' life Liu Xuan dreamed of would basically be realized.

His eight hundred offspring were growing stronger every day. He didn't have to do anything, and his cultivation was increasing at every moment.

He just needed to keep having children to continuously obtain rewards, with the occasional achievement grand prize. It was delightful.

As the saying goes, blessings do not come alone. Before the celebration ceremony at the residence had even ended, Yun Yao ran over excitedly to tell Liu Xuan some good news.

Yun Xian was pregnant!

The Liu residence had a total of two Golden Core Late Stage female cultivators. Shen Yunshu was the most open and proactive, while Yun Xian was quite resistant and had been avoiding Liu Xuan.

Unexpectedly, she was the first to get pregnant!
