The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

After taking in these orphans, the Holy Master Yunxuan took Chen Xuan to the Elders' Hall and allowed a veiled woman to enter his cave.

“The Ninth Elder is at the Tribulation Transcending stage. I know you can expel her at any time, but if you do, she will wait for you outside. As soon as you show your face, she will... understand?”

"I see! It's not bad to have these people in my secret realm. When I have nothing to do, I can go and have some fun in their mortal kingdom!"

"They are not all ordinary people. Most of them are at the Qi Refining stage. After all, their ancestors included great cultivators, so their cultivation techniques couldn't be bad."

"Oh, that's fine then. At least it's all the same to me."

"If there's nothing else, you can leave now."

"..."

"No, I really don't have any reward?"

"Didn't you say you wanted the red plum blossom? Don't tell me you didn't get it!"

"That's alright then."

After saying that, Chen Xuan left the Elders' Hall and returned to Xiao Hongmei's room.

Yunxuan went deep into the Elders' Hall and came to a quiet room where a soul lamp was placed.

"Senior Sister Mu Li, where are you?! Your soul lamp has been burning all these years, but you haven't returned to the sect!"

Until recently, your soul lamp was almost invisible, but now it's shining brightly again, which means you've escaped danger. However, with your talent, why haven't you appeared yet? We've searched for you in the cultivation world for 1000 years, but we haven't found a trace of you. What exactly happened to you...?

She spoke to the spirit lamp about her recent hardships, but no one answered her.

……

On Chen Xuan's side.

"What are you planning to do next, my wife?"

"No, don't talk nonsense! Who's your wife?" Xiao Hongmei said shyly, but still obediently massaged Chen Xuan's shoulders.

"Huh? You wicked woman, you dare to do it but not admit it, huh? What did you say back then?"

"Hmph, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything at all!"

"Fine, fine, I see you're really asking for trouble. Here's what you're going to do!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, my husband. I won't do it again. I've been away from the Zhang family for a while now, and I have to go back there. I can't spend time with you."

"Then tell me, you've wasted so much of my time, and in the end I still failed to successfully contract a Celestial Soul. I've suffered such a great loss. How are you going to compensate me?"

"Actually...actually, there really are Azure Peak Deer in the sect. I didn't lie to my husband!"

"Then why didn't you bring it to me?"

Xiao Hongmei gave Chen Xuan a coquettish look.

"These are all minor matters. Even if I finish what I asked for, it's still the same to get your martial arts skills! Now that you're at the Nascent Soul stage, you can acquire four martial arts skills. Do you think I need to prepare them all for you?"

"Let's see what the first one is first."

"Uh-huh!"

"By the way, there are other family members in my secret realm. Would you like to go and take a look?"

"Well... let's forget it. Given my current status, it's not appropriate for me to meet with them!"

"So what? Many of them are just like you, and some I even snatched away!" Chen Xuan chuckled, thinking of Lin Qingxue.

He's been quite busy these days and hasn't had time to deal with her. But it's not too late; it doesn't matter when he deals with her—she's just meat on the chopping block.

"Hmph! You're such a bad guy!" Xiao Hongmei couldn't help but pinch Chen Xuan.

"Don't you like it?" Chen Xuan grabbed the beautiful female cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm with his other hand.

Xiao Hongmei: "..."

Not long after, in the evening, Chen Xuan and Xiao Hongmei finally arrived at the Beast Taming Hall, where they had chosen the Azure Peak Deer.

Originally, their Thousand Falls Holy Land did not have such a place, but with the sudden emergence of Yu Gang's Beast Taming and Soul Transformation Technique, people from various forces had to collect more demonic beasts to raise and then slaughter them.

This has led to a great war between the demon race and the human race, and the two races are currently locked in fierce combat.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as the Beast Taming Sect among humans.

They were originally based on demonic beasts, and each of their battle pets was carefully trained by them. Naturally, they would never harm their own battle pets. So, during the great war, they unsurprisingly sided with the demon race.

"Look, this is the Azure Peak Deer. They are all transformed from spiritual treasures. You can choose a few," Xiao Hongmei said, pointing to the herd of deer in front of her.

Instantly, the entire deer herd erupted in chaos; they clearly understood the two men's conversation.

However, there were exceptions among the riotous deer herd. Several low-level deer were leisurely eating their sixth uncle (spiritual herbs). After all, with their useless abilities, they didn't have to worry about being slaughtered.

"What skills can I acquire from this little deer? Don't make it the same as yours, it's not suitable for me."

"Actually, my husband, you're probably just like me. After all, you're a peach tree, and you also need to release your fragrance!"

"..."

"I feel these are all too ordinary, I don't want them!"

"My husband, listen to me. What suits you best is the best. You can't force a relationship!"

"Is it really not sweet?" Chen Xuan suddenly looked at Xiao Hongmei.

The latter reacted instantly, blushing and stomping on his foot.

"I, I'm different. I'm not one to force things! I was out of my mind at the time, and you used a little trick on me... You'd better hurry up and choose, I still need to teach you how to fuse them when we get back!"

"Fine, fine, I really can't do anything with you!" Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly.

He also wanted those awesome monsters, but he wasn't the main character, and the current situation meant he had the best monster resources he could get.

After all, even if the Thousand Fallen Holy Land is in decline, the things it offers will definitely not be bad for him!

"Ding, host can choose which one."

The system suddenly appeared and locked onto a small deer that was calmly nibbling on its second uncle.

"It? What special skill does it have?"

"The Stardust Grass transforms into a deer, and during its growth, it absorbs Weak Water, making its potential limitless!"

"Stardust Grass? You mean the kind of Stardust Grass that can slightly increase one's luck?" Chen Xuan exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right, it's Stardust Grass," the system confirmed again.

"Wait, I was just mentally complaining that I wasn't the main character, how did this pop up the next moment? My character has been ruined, system!"

"Ding! After killing several chosen ones, your luck is already quite high. This opportunity is perfectly normal!"

"..."

"Husband, have you made your choice yet? Why are you suddenly showing so many different expressions? One minute you're shocked, the next you're overjoyed, and then you're speechless!"

Chen Xuan suddenly pulled Xiao Hongmei into his arms and kissed her face so hard it was distorted.
