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

"Have you noticed how high the level of spiritual energy here is? I feel like it might be approaching the legendary immortal energy! Is this the world of immortals?" Qing Lanyu asked curiously.

“Indeed, but spiritual energy is spiritual energy, not immortal energy. The place we came from should not be the immortal realm,” Chen Xuan said calmly.

Could it be... that he misunderstood?

"It seems we've arrived in an unknown place. I wonder what this place is?" Qing Lanyu looked around and asked curiously.

"I don't know either. Let's look around," Chen Xuan said, shaking his head.

The two then began to explore the area.

"This, this is dragon blood grass! And a whole patch of it! How could there be dragons here?" Qing Lanyu was suddenly surprised.

Dragons have always symbolized nobility and mystery. Even as a Mahayana cultivator, she knew very little about them. She never expected that dragon blood grass would exist here. It means that a dragon died here!

"Why worry about so much? Hurry up and put it away!"

While Qinglan Yu was pondering, Chen Xuan had already begun harvesting. This stuff contained dragon blood, which would be very beneficial to the body after consumption, so he wanted to harvest more so that his family could also try it.

"I..." Qing Lanyu looked at the money-grubbing Chen Xuan and wanted to mock him, but she immediately remembered their previous bickering and gave up.

She has already lost too much in order to obtain Chen Xuan's secrets, and now a celestial being has suddenly appeared. She must persevere!

"I only need 20 plants."

"Sure, whatever's yours is mine anyway, no need to be so particular." Chen Xuan had no objections.

"What do you mean by 'what's mine is yours!' What's mine is mine!"

"You're already like this, aren't you going to marry me?"

"Marry... Bah! Who wants to marry you! Go find someone else!" Qing Lanyu's face flushed slightly. After all, she was now the Daoist partner of the Green Mountain Ancestor, so how could she agree to Chen Xuan's absurd suggestion?

Seeing this, Chen Xuan didn't say anything and started collecting treasures on his own.

After collecting everything, the two left the spot and headed to another location.

"Hey, why aren't you saying anything? Are you angry?"

Chen Xuan remained silent the entire way, and Qing Lanyu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, her heart feeling empty.

Chen Xuan did not respond, continuing to walk silently on this unfamiliar land.

Qing Lanyu suddenly felt a little lost. Before, when Chen Xuan bullied her or even argued with her, she was only embarrassed and angry, not really angry. But this time, Chen Xuan's silence made her feel like she had done something wrong.

But she was the victim! Why was Chen Xuan angry? She felt wronged.

As time went on, she even began to reflect on what was wrong with her. She was a Mahayana cultivator and the Daoist partner of the Green Mountain Ancestor; she should be high above everyone else, maintaining a proud demeanor at all times. Why was she so humble in front of this junior?

She recalled what Chen Xuan had said before, and it seemed that she had unknowingly developed feelings for this young man that she shouldn't have.

This feeling terrified her, because she knew she shouldn't feel this way.

But she couldn't ignore this feeling; it made her feel at ease, and when Chen Xuan ignored her, she felt a little panicked.

"Hey, Chen Xuan."

Qinglan Yu called out softly.

Chen Xuan still did not respond; he seemed not to have heard Qing Lanyu's shout.

"Are you angry? I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I just couldn't accept it for a moment." Qing Lanyu lowered her tone and said softly.

She really felt hopeless. She had done nothing wrong, yet she had to apologize to a junior!

Seeing this, Chen Xuan chuckled inwardly.

He wasn't so despicable as to bully this little girl and then ignore her. He did this mainly to see what Qing Lanjue was really thinking.

Now, if I ignore her, she rushes over to apologize. It seems like I'll have her wrapped around my little finger when the time comes.

Chen Xuan suddenly stopped and turned around to look at Qing Lanyu.

“What did you say?” he asked.

"I said, I didn't mean it just now, I'm sorry," Qing Lanyu repeated.

"Oh, it's nothing," Chen Xuan replied casually.

Seeing this, Qing Lanyu felt even more disappointed. She couldn't understand why. Did she really care so much about his attitude towards her?

"then you......"

"Leave me alone, I'm thinking about something," Chen Xuan replied casually.

Qing Lanyu felt even more uneasy and continued to press, "What are you thinking about?"

“I’ve been thinking about what to name our 100 children. Chen Qing? Chen Lan? Or Chen Yu? I think this name is pretty good,” Chen Xuan finally spoke up.

"You...you bastard! Jade is the name of Fairy Qinglan, how could you..." Qinglan Yu's face flushed red. She didn't expect Chen Xuan to suddenly bring this up.

"Haha, just kidding, just teasing you." Chen Xuan laughed heartily.

"Hmph, you bastard, how could you say such blasphemous things!" Qing Lanyu said angrily.

"Alright, let's see what other treasures are here. Since that immortal hasn't come looking for me, we don't need to worry about it anymore." Chen Xuan pinched Qing Lanyu's cheek and said with a smile.

......

After a day of exploration, they arrived at the foot of a majestic mountain.

"There seems to be some kind of force suppressing me here, preventing me from flying up, and even limiting the extension of my divine sense," Qing Lanyu said, frowning.

For cultivators like them, the inability of their divine sense to extend too far is as painful as being blind!

“Yes, I feel the same way,” Chen Xuan nodded.

"Do you think there were immortals living here before, which is why there is such a powerful aura?" Qing Lanyu asked curiously.

"It's possible. Let's keep watching," Chen Xuan said.

Just then, a fierce fighting sound came from ahead.

"There's a battle going on ahead?" Qing Lanyu's expression changed slightly, and she wanted to take Chen Xuan over to check it out.

Perhaps some rare and precious treasure has appeared in the world, causing people to scramble for it!

From afar, the two saw a group of people fighting around Dai Dabai.

“It’s Dai Dabai!” Qing Lanyu looked at the people and Dai Dabai, then turned her gaze to Chen Xuan.

"No rush, let's see what happened first!"

"But... isn't he your teammate? Why don't you go...?"

Snapped!

"Just watch, why ask so many questions!"

"Oh."

Qing Lanyu gave Chen Xuan a coquettish look, then nodded obediently, looked at the fighting crowd, and said nothing more.

Hmph, Chen Xuan is truly wicked! Once we're out of the secret realm, I'll definitely teach him a lesson!
