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

Chen Xuan's room.

Just as the mysterious woman in the sky wanted to talk to Chen Xuan, a little black cat quietly slipped into Chen Xuan's room.

The mysterious woman put on a stern face.

"Chen Xuan, have you started cultivating?"

Chen Xuan: "..."

"Even if I'm cultivating, you still come here!" Chen Xuan's helpless voice came from inside the house.

Well, thankfully Qingwu left, otherwise this little cat would have given him a real headache.

"Hehe, it's just that I missed you so much! We've been apart for so many days..." Zhu Zhu's voice trailed off.

"Why does your room smell like Qingwu? Was she just here?"

"Hmm, she came over to ask me for some peach blossoms to eat." Chen Xuan felt a little regretful when he thought of Rouwu.

"Why are you making that face? A little romance won't break your heart, will it?" The cat-eared girl sat comfortably next to Chen Xuan and hugged him as she spoke.

"Nothing, I just suddenly felt a bit sentimental."

"How old are you to already sense... wait, why do you smell like Qingwu too?!"

"Chen Xuan! Tell me the truth! What shady things have you been up to?!" Zhu Zhu immediately grabbed Chen Xuan's ear.

"Ahem, she accidentally fell, so I went to help her up!"

"Do you think I'd believe that?" The girl's face was expressionless, revealing neither her joy nor anger.

"I don't care whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway!" Chen Xuan swept him up in his arms.

"Ugh, I hate it!"

"Here, I have a brand new cat grass here. Let me let you try it!"

"I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat..."

The mysterious woman in the sky suddenly blushed and turned her back.

That despicable Chen Xuan, I'll remember this grudge! Wait until you're all alone, then I'll see how I deal with you!

On Yu Gang's side.

Through his and Tang Sirui's tireless efforts, they finally summoned the exclusive immortal souls of the Green Mountain Ancestor and his Daoist partner, Fairy Qinglan.

The fairy's soul is quite unique; it is a rare piece of azure jade, a support-type soul that can provide various enhancements to others or herself.

However, she will not ascend to heaven anytime soon, so she is not the focus of Yu Gang's attention. The focus is on the Green Mountain Ancestor.

His martial spirit was even more unique, consisting of a green hat!

Even Yu Gang fell silent. He didn't know what type of immortal soul this was. He couldn't very well tell the Green Mountain Ancestor that his martial soul was a piece of trash, could he?

Furthermore, what's even more terrifying is that the Green Mountain Ancestor's family inherited a high-level spirit beast as their immortal soul. Although mutations and other issues may occur, this spirit beast, no matter how it mutates, could never mutate into a hat...

So he dared not speak of the Green Mountain Ancestor's background! He feared that if he knew the big boss's secret, the big boss would simply cleave him in two.

"Master Yu, do you understand the significance of the spirit spirit on my hat?"

"Hat Immortal Soul... Hats have defensive capabilities, so your immortal soul is a defensive type! I just don't know what the characteristics of your immortal soul are?"

"Special features? What special features? It's like there's a feeling that everyone around me will really like this hat!"

"So that's the characteristic of your hat. It seems your charm is as strong as ever!" Yu Gang quickly complimented.

"Haha, not at all, I'm already an old man, I'm useless now!"

As expected, after hearing Yu Gang's words, the Green Mountain Ancestor felt extremely comfortable and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Alright, look at you! Your hat's all crooked from laughing. Don't move, I'll put it back on for you!" Seeing her husband like this, Fairy Qinglan couldn't help but move closer and put the hat back on for Old Ancestor Qingshan, scolding him.

"Yes, yes, yes, Fairy Qinglan is right. This old man will listen to you!" Ancestor Qingshan shook his head helplessly.

Then they started talking about serious business.

"Master Yu, what do you think we should do to nurture our immortal souls, Qinglan's and mys? Should we choose demonic beasts?"

"I have several options in mind for Fairy Qinglan's support build, but as for your hat-shaped fairy soul, I really have no clue at the moment. I need to go back and think about it carefully for you, and find the most suitable demon beast for you!"

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Master Yu. This isn't something that's particularly urgent, so don't worry, just take your time!" Old Ancestor Qingshan said with a smile and a nod.

"Okay, I will get back to you as soon as possible!"

Yu Gang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally managed to fool them.

Although he didn't know exactly what type of immortal soul the Green Mountain Ancestor's hat possessed, it didn't look normal at all. He was really afraid that he might not be able to hold back and reveal the truth.

Now that he has the approval of the Green Mountain Ancestor, he is temporarily safe.

"Then the old man will have Master Lao Yu."

"You're too kind, Ancestor. This is my duty!" Yu Gang quickly bowed.

Upon hearing this, the Old Ancestor of Green Mountain remained calm.

He doesn't need to rush now. He just needs to wait for Yu Gang to find a suitable demon beast for his immortal soul, and then he will be able to get a bunch of potentially very powerful help, which will greatly help his future development in the immortal realm.

Even if the skills he acquired were rubbish, he could accept it. After all, given his cultivation level, he didn't care too much about his newly emerged immortal soul; it was just a casual move.

Anyway, this hat is most likely a defensive immortal soul, which sounds pretty good, but what if? What if it has some kind of amazing skill?

In the heart of the Green Mountain Ancestor, although his martial soul was not very powerful, he did not consider it a useless immortal soul.

After all, Yu Gang was right. In this world, anything, if used properly, can play a huge role, including his immortal soul.

"Alright! This is my payment for inviting you, Master Yu. I'll have an even bigger gift after this is done!"

"This... alright!" Yu Gang accepted the storage bag handed over by the Green Mountain Ancestor with a bitter face.

"If there's nothing else, Ancestor, I'll go back and commission a demon beast with an immortal soul for you."

"good!"

……

Soon, Yu Gang and Tang Sirui left the palace and returned to their residence at the academy.

Watching the two leave, Ancestor Qingshan turned to Fairy Qinglan and asked, "What do you think of their group?"

"There's not much to say. That Yu Gang created the system, so he must be someone who has gathered great fortune, but unfortunately, he's a good-for-nothing himself. So... the person with great fortune should be by his side!"

"Who do you think it is?"

"That man in the corner earlier... he gave me the feeling of extraordinary bearing and imposing presence!" Fairy Qinglan immediately thought of Chen Xuan.

After all, they were both Mahayana cultivators, top figures in the cultivation world, and they had a certain affinity for those with great fortune.
