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

When Chen Xuan arrived outside, the place was still in ruins, but Tang Haotian had not yet returned.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully uniting with the luck of... Chu Yinyao. Rewards: 100000 Destiny Points, 1 Purple Sun Spirit Fruit, 1 Traceless Divine Wood, 1 Heavenly Fragrance Orchid, 1 Star Grass, 1 Mysterious Ice Flower, 1 Phoenix Perching on a Wutong Tree, and 100 lottery draws."

"Holy crap, it's all plants! And what's the last one? A phoenix perched on a parasol tree! What's it for? I don't have a phoenix to give it a place to live!" Chen Xuan complained.

"Ding! The Phoenix Perching on the Wutong Tree is the highest divine tree in the world. As long as it is planted in a place with abundant spiritual energy, it can absorb the spiritual energy of the world and transform it into the purest energy in the world, providing a habitat for the divine beast Phoenix."

"I see, but I don't have a phoenix with me!"

"Returning to the host, long-term residence here can enhance the resident's all-round abilities."

"you mean……?"

"That's right, even if you don't have a phoenix, you can still plant this tree to enhance your overall abilities!"

"Wow... awesome!"

"Then hurry up and plant the phoenix tree in my house first. The rest can be scattered throughout the world!"

"Ding, deploying... Deployment complete!"

"Chu Yinyao, you are truly my precious treasure. I gave you 100000 Destiny Points directly."

"Since she has 100000, then... Tang Haotian should have that number too. Plus, all the other chosen ones have already been killed by me, so... Tang Sirui's kill threshold is almost here!"

As he pondered, Chen Xuan casually picked up a seed and held it in his palm. The seed quickly began to sprout and take root, just like the one Chu Yinyao had sprouted.

Afterwards, he put on makeup, and a "battle-damaged" Chen Xuan who had experienced a major battle appeared in the secret room.

Several more days passed, and Tang Haotian, reeking of a foul odor, finally returned. Looking at the ruins of Tang Hammer Sect, his heart sank.

The next moment, he rushed to the secret room where Chen Xuan was settled, wanting to see if his Chu Yinyao was alright.

"Big brother, why are you so late! I've been waiting so long, my sister-in-law is so grateful!" Chen Xuan said weakly, then offered up the plant in his palm, his neck tilted to the side, and he fainted along with the plant.

"Yin'er! Yin'er! Chen Xuan, how dare you throw my Yin'er on the ground!" Tang Haotian stared at the plants on the ground, his eyes widening instantly, his face showing shock and anger.

He couldn't believe his eyes. Chen Xuan had casually tossed his precious silver coins onto the ground!

An uncontrollable rage surged within Tang Haotian, his voice becoming sharp and frantic as he glared at Chen Xuan with murderous intent.

But this wasn't the time for him to settle accounts with Chen Xuan. He rushed towards the plant without thinking and tried to pick it up.

But whether it was fate or because he was too eager and his movements were a bit clumsy, just as he was about to pick up the silver, he accidentally bumped into the table next to him, causing the plant to fall to the ground again.

Tang Haotian was stunned, his eyes filled with despair and helplessness, while the unconscious Chen Xuan smiled.

"Yin'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I brought back the spirit soil, I'll transplant you onto it right now!" Tang Haotian completely ignored the unconscious Chen Xuan, hurriedly took out the spirit soil and transplanted the plant in his hand onto it.

The plants, which had been wilting, immediately regained their vitality the moment they took root in the spiritual soil. Tang Haotian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

He carefully cradled the plant, his eyes filled with tenderness and love. Gently stroking its leaves, he felt its vitality, his heart overflowing with joy.

"She's alive! Yin'er is finally..." Tang Haotian was so excited that he was speechless for a long time before he returned to normal.

"Chen Xuan, how dare you treat my Yin'er like this!! I'll make you..." He looked at Chen Xuan with a ferocious expression, raised his hand, and finally slowly lowered it.

There was no other way; he needed Chen Xuan's life force.

When Chen Xuan "awakened" again, the two found themselves in an unfamiliar city.

"Big brother! Where is this? I'm not dead!" Chen Xuan exclaimed happily.

"This is Killing City. With me here, you will naturally not die!" Tang Haotian said coldly.

"By the way, where's my sister-in-law? How is she now? Has she recovered? Brother, have you found any spiritual soil...?"

"Enough! This is not a question you should be asking! From now on, you'd better forget about this forever and don't tell anyone!" Tang Haotian said sternly.

If he didn't still need Chen Xuan's life force, he would have erased Chen Xuan's memories long ago.

Of course, whether it can be deleted is still quite uncertain.

"Ah? Oh!"

"Tell me, what happened to my Tang Hammer Sect? I went out for a while, and it ended up like that!"

"Oh, brother, you don't know this. That day, I was doing my best to save my sister-in-law, but a group of people came from nowhere, saying they were from the Flying Immortal Sect. They came to our Tang Hammer Sect and wreaked havoc, killing disciples and even arrogantly undergoing tribulation on the spot!" Chen Xuan cried.

"What?!" Tang Haotian roared in fury. "The Flying Immortal Sect? How dare they!"

“Yes, brother,” Chen Xuan continued, “and they were disrespectful to you, the sect leader, and started cursing you out. They were saying really nasty things. I couldn’t stand it in the secret room, so I protected my sister-in-law and went up to argue with them. But they just attacked me, and I… I was no match for them!”

"Then how did you survive?" Tang Haotian asked.

"Brother, in a moment of panic, I used a secret technique to detonate a magical artifact, intending to perish together with them. As a result, they all died, but I was lucky enough to survive."

However, my spiritual power was also exhausted. I desperately burned myself to try and save my sister-in-law, which led to what happened next..."

Tang Haotian looked at Chen Xuan with a complicated expression. He hadn't expected that Chen Xuan would value the Tang Hammer Sect so much!

Furthermore, he detonated the magic weapon to save Yin'er, so I should be grateful to him, but... his actions angered me, and I cannot forgive him.

"Forget about that for now. What we need to do now is find a safe place as soon as possible so your sister-in-law can recover." Tang Haotian ultimately decided to give up on pursuing the matter.
