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

"Ahem, well, back then it was in the lower realm of the Zhang family. That's when I met Zhu Zhu. I was being bullied, and Miss Zhu Zhu came to my aid," Chen Xuan explained briefly.

"I see. It seems you two are destined to meet." Zhu Zhu's mother, Wen Yurou, nodded slightly. "Since you are friends, you should get along well and help each other from now on, understand?"

"Yes, I will, please don't worry, Auntie." Chen Xuan nodded in agreement.

"Well, that's good. Since there's nothing else, Young Master Chen can take his leave now. I have some things to tell Zhu Zhu," Wen Yurou said with a smile.

"Understood, then I shall take my leave." Chen Xuan didn't linger and left immediately.

This still-attractive woman must have noticed something.

Watching Chen Xuan's departing figure, Wen Yurou breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Chen Xuan was alright; in fact, he was quite handsome, the kind of person you couldn't help but like. Too bad, he was a puppet...

"Ah? Mother, how could you send the guests away!" Zhu Zhu was very dissatisfied.

"You think you can just kick him out? Have you forgotten who you are? He's a man, how dare he come into your yard?"

Wen Yurou shook her head.

The precious daughter she raised is definitely not a fool. The reason why Chen Xuan was able to enter her daughter's courtyard must be because Zhu Zhu had feelings for him that she shouldn't have!

"Mother, you're overthinking it. I, I'm just ordinary friends with Young Master Chen. We're just gentlemen. What's wrong with letting him into my courtyard?" Zhu Zhu said, blushing.

"Really?" Wen Yurou asked with a smile in her eyes.

“Of course it’s true! If you don’t believe me, you can ask Young Master Chen!” Zhu Zhu said firmly.

“Alright, then Mother believes you. However, Young Master Chen is a man after all, so you should still be careful in the future and not let outsiders notice anything amiss,” Wen Yurou said earnestly.

"Yes, I understand, Mother. Thank you for reminding me." Zhu Zhu nodded.

Then Wen Yurou pinched her face.

"Did they give themselves away?"

"Where did you slip up... Wen Yurou, you tricked me!!!"

"You're such a filial daughter, you even dare to call your mother by her name!"

"You...you you you!!!" Zhu Zhu pointed at Wen Yurou, unable to utter a single word.

The mother and daughter just stared at each other, neither willing to speak to the other.

Finally, Wen Yurou sighed.

"Zhu Zhu, you should know your future fate. There is absolutely no possibility between you and him!"

"Mom, I really don't like that Dai Dabai. I... I just want to be with Chen Xuan!"

"Have you considered the Zhu family? Do you know what the consequences will be for the Zhu family if your affair with Chen Xuan is exposed?"

Zhu Zhu lowered her head and remained silent.

"I, Chen Xuan and I will not implicate the Zhu family! We have our own plans!"

"Heh, you silly girl, if only things were that simple! You think that by scheming to elope with him and creating a false impression, my Zhu family would be completely unscathed and bear no responsibility?!"

"No, isn't that how it is? To outsiders, it looks like I've been kidnapped!"

Wen Yurou sighed again, hugged Zhu Zhu, and left her courtyard, ordering her not to leave the courtyard at all.

......

On Chen Xuan's side.

After receiving Ning Yuewan's suddenly changed answer, he returned to the small world, found Fairy Bixiao, and told her everything.

"Huh? You want to bring a woman back? Someone else's?!" Upon hearing this, Bixiao reached out and grabbed Chen Xuan's ear.

After falling into Chen Xuan's trap, she was no longer the emotionless and desireless fairy she once was, but couldn't help but feel extremely jealous.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, my wife, please spare me, my wife, please spare me!"

"Hmph, will you dare to do it again next time?"

"Just this once (this year), there won't be a next time!!"

"Really?" Bi Xiao glanced at Chen Xuan. She knew what kind of person Chen Xuan was. This time, he would definitely take back the woman he had his eye on.

"It's real, really real, even more real than real gold!"

"Alright, since you've begged me like this, I won't hold it against you!"

"That...that woman carries a Heavenly Oath, how can I...?"

"A Heavenly Oath? That's easy! Just put it into your little world, and you'll be the Heavenly Dao here. The Heavenly Dao of this little cultivation world has no say in your affairs!"

"Huh? Me, am I that good?"

"Hmph, you should be glad that this world is too primitive. They didn't make that woman swear an oath of Dao heart! Otherwise, this would be the most difficult thing to deal with. Although it violated the oath of Dao heart, it's just not fatal."

"I see! Brilliant!"

"But don't get too excited yet. Theoretically, that woman is still loyal to the royal family. Even if you open the portal, she can't go in with you!"

"Ah? Why is this happening?!"

"Then how can I let her in?"

"We'll just use force to suppress her. Defeat her first, then capture her. That way, there won't be any problems! By the way, what's her cultivation level?"

"To unite, to merge..."

"..."

"I can't help you with that. Although she can't beat me, I can't bring myself to steal my love rival away!"

Chen Xuan: "......"

Then, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Hey, my dear wife, could you teach me your method for suppressing your cultivation?"

"just you?"

Bixiao laughed.

"She's two levels higher than you, and you still want to suppress her cultivation?!"

"Anyway, I have my own methods, so teach me!" Chen Xuan directly used Nightmare Entanglement on Fairy Bixiao.

"Well......"

In the outside world, seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Xuan, aside from sending peach blossoms to the outside world, has remained secluded for the past 70 days.

He didn't waste those 70 days; through diligent cultivation, he finally helped Bixiao break through to the Refinement of Emptiness realm and unlocked the seal for him.

Without hesitation, he found a place and broke through his cultivation level in one go. His long-term accumulation directly propelled him to the sixth level of the Void Refinement Realm, and his foundation was extremely solid.

Today is another day to send peach blossoms to Ning Yuewan.

Of course, it's also the day for picking peach blossoms. (I love peach blossoms.)
