429: Five years later, the child found the jade pendant

The next day.

The sun tore through the clouds, casting warmth upon the cold, snow-covered earth.

Su Yongchun, who was tending to herbs in the medicinal garden, glanced at Sun Hanliu, who was holding the Child and basking in the sun. With a thought, he summoned the System panel.

Last night, he had just discovered that the System had updated to version 2.0.

The main update was a new feature: Family Mall.

It took him a whole day, and only now did he have the leisure to browse this System Mall.

One-Click Max Level Card: 990,000 Experience Points (Usable by Sun Hanliu)

One-Click Max Level Card: 10 Experience Points (Usable by Su Xuan)

Realm Advancement Card: 1,200,000 Experience Points (Usable by Sun Hanliu)

Realm Advancement Card: 100 Experience Points (Usable by Su Xuan)

In the Family Mall, there were only four purchasable options.

After reading the descriptions of these items, Su Yongchun let out a long sigh of relief.

Before, he had been wondering how to improve Sun Hanliu's strength.

After all, for strength to improve, resources and talent are indispensable.

He could guarantee Sun Hanliu's resources, but her ultimate potential still depended on herself.

Now, there was no need to worry.

The System's One-Click Max Level Card could instantly elevate everything Sun Hanliu was currently learning—Formations, Martial Arts, Puppet Technique—to the Perfection Realm!

Once she learned other new Martial Arts, the One-Click Max Level Card would refresh again.

It would consume a corresponding amount of Experience Points to purchase, based on the Martial Arts Sun Hanliu learned!

The Realm Upgrade Card was even easier to understand; it directly elevated one major Realm level.

Currently, Sun Hanliu was in the Upper Spirit Venerate Realm. She would only need 1,200,000 Experience Points to advance to the Lower Spirit Lord Realm!

Within the System's Family Mall, with just Experience Points, he could mold Sun Hanliu into an unparalleled Empress!

As for his son Su Xuan's cards, Su Yongchun merely glanced at them casually.

He bought a 10-Experience-Point One-Click Max Level Card as a test.

Having only been born for one day, where would a 10-Experience-Point Max Level Card apply?

With a playful spirit, Su Yongchun threw the card towards the Child in Sun Hanliu's arms.

As the card approached, it suddenly dispersed into a curtain of light that converged upon Su Xuan.

Initially, Sun Hanliu was slightly startled by this change.

However, seeing Su Yongchun in the distance and realizing he was behind it, she couldn't help but give him a reproachful glance.

And in the next moment, the Child, who had been playfully squirming in the woman's arms, gradually quieted down.

With each inhalation and exhalation, clusters of spiritual Qi were drawn in by his breathing.

Spiritual Qi purification!

Witnessing this scene, Su Yongchun's eyes narrowed slightly.

It seemed his One-Click Max Level Card had activated some kind of Heaven-Defying Physique inherent in his Child.

In the original novel, the protagonist Dragon Xuan also possessed a terrifying Physique.

The Xuanyuan Dragon Body.

It was a super Physique that grew stronger with each battle and allowed for Breakthroughs during combat.

However, the protagonist Dragon Xuan only awakened this Physique at the age of 16, when his Family was annihilated and he was driven to the brink of madness.

It was from that moment on that he went on a rampage, killing gods and Buddhas alike.

But now, his Child, just one day old, had awakened his inherent Heaven-Defying Physique with a Max Level Card.

What did this count as?

Sixteen years ahead of the original protagonist?

Turning to look at Sun Hanliu, two cards appeared in Su Yongchun's hand: "Liu'er."

Seeing the woman look over, Su Yongchun also tossed out the two cards.

The next moment.

A spiritual Qi vortex, formed by the Breakthrough from Spirit Venerate to Spirit Lord Realm, gathered in the sky, centered around Sun Hanliu.

Half a day passed.

Su Yongchun, holding Su Xuan, looked at Sun Hanliu, whose aura was stable without any hint of instability, and another card appeared in his hand.

With years of accumulation, plus the 900 million Experience Points brought by Su Xuan, Su Yongchun's current assets had reached a staggering 1.1 billion!

First, let Sun Hanliu become an Immortal, unrivaled in the Great Yong Continent... Five years later.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"

The seawater continued to crash against the coastal reefs as always.

However, if an elder were to observe closely, he would notice that the current sea level seemed to be slightly lower than it was decades ago.

The scorching sun baked the earth to a fiery heat.

Children running barefoot outside, no matter how energetic, also sought shelter in the shade.

"Daddy, Mommy! Mommy!" A fair and delicate Child, clutching an item in his hand, skipped joyfully into a wooden house.

"Where did you run off to play again? Why are you so dirty?" Sun Hanliu wore coarse cloth clothes, dressed like a common village woman.

"Mommy, where's Daddy?" The Child searched everywhere in the house, wanting to find Su Yongchun's whereabouts to share his day's harvest.

"Your Daddy went fishing at sea. What is it? Did you pick up some more junk?" Sun Hanliu brushed the dust off Su Xuan's clothes, her expression a mix of amusement and helplessness.

Her own Child was running around everywhere at three years old.

At four, he started to enjoy picking up discarded items everywhere.

Even now, at five, he still had an endless fascination for what others wouldn't even glance at as junk.

And every time he found something he considered good, he had to share it with his parents.

Hearing that Su Yongchun wasn't around, Su Xuan's excitement waned by half.

But he still opened his hand to Sun Hanliu and said, "Mommy, look, I found a jade pendant by the sea!"

"A jade pendant?" Sun Hanliu took the jade pendant, her beautiful eyes pausing slightly.

She saw that within this jade pendant, there was actually a wisp of a strong expert's remnant soul hidden.

Of course, 'strong expert' was relative to the people of the Great Yong Continent.

This was the remnant soul of a Peak Sealed Position Realm expert.

"Buzz ~"

Swept by a powerful Divine Sense, the old man's remnant soul in the jade pendant looked utterly terrified.

"What's going on? Isn't this just an ordinary commoner Family?!"

"Such terrifying Divine Sense! This Child's mother is actually stronger than he was at his Peak!"

"Mommy, is this worth a lot of money?" Su Xuan raised his head: "If we sell him, Daddy won't have to go fishing every day, right?"

If it had been before, upon hearing Su Xuan wanting to sell him, the old man's remnant soul would have surely manifested in anger, showing the Child what a great fortune and Opportunity it was to encounter him.

But now.

The old man's remnant soul dared not make a sound.

Are you kidding?

This Family's mistress was at least an Immortal!

Who was he in comparison?

In the eyes of an Immortal, if she called him trash... he couldn't even refute it.

However, she wouldn't really sell him for some mundane money, would she?

To think of him, the Great Chu Pill King, a Peak existence in the Kingly Dao of the Sealed Position Realm, he shouldn't be so down and out as to be worth less than a few taels of silver... right?

Feeling uneasy, the old man's remnant soul huddled like a timid chick, not daring to make a sound, waiting for his fate.

"Keep this jade pendant for now. When your Daddy comes back, show it to him." Sun Hanliu put away the jade pendant and then looked at Su Xuan: "You little silly boy, although our Family doesn't have much money, it's enough to raise you. Why do you always worry about grown-up matters?"

"Come, time to eat."

After washing Su Xuan's hands, Sun Hanliu brought out the leftover food.

"Aren't we waiting for Daddy?" Holding his chopsticks, Su Xuan looked at his mother.

Sun Hanliu put some dishes on Su Xuan's plate: "No, we're not. He'll eat when he gets back later."

"Oh." Looking at the vegetables in his bowl, Su Xuan sighed inwardly.

The Family's conditions were truly difficult. They rarely ate meat in a year, eating unfamiliar and unpalatable wild vegetables every day.

He needed to pick up more things to give to his parents to sell for money and improve their lives.

However, at this moment.

In the jade pendant on the table, the Great Chu Pill King's eyes were already wide with shock!

"Seventh-grade Spirit King Ganoderma, eighth-grade Willow Wood Heart, ninth-grade Undying Grass!"

"Heavens! Are these things meant to be eaten as vegetables?!"

"What a waste, what a terrible waste!"

One must know that even the lowest grade of these vegetables was incredibly difficult for him to obtain even at his Peak, no less difficult than ascending to heaven!

Yet this Child was eating them reluctantly, with a twisted expression.

Simply, simply unbelievable!

At this moment, the Great Chu Pill King wished he could transform into a dog in the house, begging for a few scraps of leftovers!
