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

"Hey, brother, you're really lucky!" Jin Dafu sighed.

"Why do you say that, my dear brother?"

"Look at you, not only do you have a daughter who is outstanding in every way, but your sister-in-law is also as beautiful as an angel... right? If it weren't for my wife being unattractive, I, Jin Dafu, might be able to rule a large city by now!"

“Indeed, indeed! We were all once people of the Zhou Kingdom in the Mountain and Sea Realm. Now, our Emperor has rebuilt the Zhou Kingdom in this world! Brother Zhu, do you know why?” Qin Minghao laughed.

Zhu Ying shook his head blankly.

“It’s his daughter! He has two daughters, both in… my son-in-law’s house. Now, do you understand?”

"But Wen Yurou is ultimately..."

"Brother Zhu, those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles! We know Chen Xuan all too well!"

"You have no idea, he brought all those who had shown him even the slightest kindness back in the Mountain and Sea Realm to the Upper Realm. Do you think someone like that would abandon us once he becomes successful?"

"That's right, Master Chen is a true grandmaster. You don't think he won't be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future, do you? If he does ascend, won't we all become rich along with him?!"

"This……"

Zhu Ying is a self-disciplined person. Normally, he would trade if there were huge profits to be made, but this time was different. He had no idea what Chen Xuan's personality was like. In addition, Wen Yurou's identity was special. If he offered her up rashly, he was afraid that Chen Xuan would be displeased and offend him.

That was the real reason for his hesitation.

"Brother Zhu, go for it! Don't wait until your son-in-law ascends to the celestial realm and meets a real fairy. By then, even if you slap your thigh, it won't be of any use!"

“But I’m worried that if I do something wrong, it might backfire and upset my son-in-law…” Zhu Ying shook his head with a wry smile, telling the two of his concerns.

"Don't worry, Master Chen is a good person in every way. It's just that he's too soft on women. If he were a bit more assertive, he might even accept his fate!" Qin Minghao said.

“That’s right, it’s fate’s arrangement. That’s a good saying. Isn’t this just fate’s arrangement?” Jin Dafu clapped his hands and laughed.

"Fortune favors the bold! That's all I have to say. The Qin family wants us to be recognized as family members, so I won't stay any longer. Farewell!" Qin Minghao cupped his hands in farewell and left the secret room.

His situation is a bit different. Jin Dafu is the legitimate father of Chen Xuan's concubine, with a very strong backing. But for him, it becomes quite awkward.

None of the members of the Qin family had any dealings with Chen Xuan. The only one, Qin Tian, ​​was seriously at odds with Chen Xuan. Even so, Chen Xuan was willing to bring his Qin family up. He had done everything he could. The rest was up to their fate.

And so, now that they've arrived in the upper realm, just as they were getting sleepy, someone brought them a pillow.

The Qin family in the upper realm didn't know the details of the Qin family in the lower realm, so they were eager to recognize them as relatives. This was exactly what they wanted, which led to the ceremony of recognizing their ancestors and returning to their clan.

"Brother Qin, don't go! I'll go with you!" Jin Dafu also left.

Zhu Ying watched the two walk away, and it took him a long time to react.

"Damn it, I'll risk it! Even if I fail, it shouldn't be a big deal. Fortune favors the bold, and besides, I'm not in any danger here!" Zhu Ying gritted his teeth and took out the communication stone.

Inside Ning Yuewan's palace, Wen Yurou, who was resting, was awakened by the communication stone.

"What is it?" she asked impatiently.

"The family needs your help."

"Just say it!"

"I want you to go and confront Chen Xuan..."

Wen Yurou: "???"

"No, did you take the wrong medicine or what?" Wen Yurou's face flushed red, whether from anger or guilt was hard to tell.

"I haven't lost my mind. I'm just asking you... This is a command from the Heavenly Oath! If you accomplish this, there will be no more Heavenly Oaths to bind you in the future!"

Wen Yurou immediately cut off the contact, leaned weakly against the wall, and breathed a sigh of relief.

“This time, it’s Zhu Ying’s request, and it’s also my chance to break free from the oath of Heaven…” Wen Yurou murmured to herself.

Chen Xuan had not told her that the Heavenly Oath would disappear upon entering the small world, so she was unaware of it at this time.

However, she wasn't stupid. She could tell from Chen Xuan and Ning Yuewan's conversation that Chen Xuan possessed the means to block the oath of Heaven, and he had used it on Ning Yuewan. She just didn't know if he had used it on herself.

Wen Yurou's current weakness was caused by Chen Xuan, but she couldn't be angry about it at all, and even felt that it was somewhat... indescribable.

She recalled the scene and couldn't help but complain:

"Hmph, why are you acting like a child who's never had candy before, grabbing me and stuffing your face with it! Even Ning Yuewan can't be bothered with you, am I really that charming?"

"Hey, what are you thinking about?!"

……

"So... I can't gamble, right? I have to... complete the task given to me by the family!" She muttered to herself, her face growing even redder.

I can't fool myself after all. That damned Chen Xuan, why is he so outstanding...?

……

While Zhu Yingjian was feeling uneasy because Wen Yurou hadn't denied it, Jin Dafu and Qin Minghao were chatting and laughing in the Jin family in Baihu City.

“Brother Jin, you can’t lie to your brother about anything. That Master Chen, he really does have feelings for Wen Yurou…”

"Look at you! This is a matter of great importance, how could I be careless! Last time my daughter came to see me, she went to greet that Empress Ning. When she came back, she told me that Wen Yurou is just a lamb to the slaughter for my son-in-law, but my son-in-law hasn't made a move yet!"

"Brother, do you mean that no matter whether we try to persuade Zhu Ying or not, Wen Yurou has no chance of escaping?"

"Of course! We're all men, so it's obvious what we're thinking. Someone like Wen Yurou, no one can fool anyone else!"

Now that we've acted as the behind-the-scenes manipulators, once Zhu Ying reaps the benefits, we should at least get a share!

"No, Chen Xuan has been so good to you, aren't you satisfied?!" Qin Minghao asked in surprise.

The reason the Qin family couldn't get anything good was because there was no one Chen Xuan wanted. But Jin Ruoyan was different; she was Chen Xuan's beloved concubine, so the Jin family couldn't possibly lack anything, and that was indeed the case.

"Have you ever counted how many women my son-in-law has had? Those women are no pushovers; behind them are countless families. Once a precedent is set, the consequences..."

"I understand, thank you for clearing up my doubts!"

"Now, it all depends on Zhu Ying's performance!"
