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

"Hmph, you, you're just bullying me!" Bixiao stomped her little feet playfully, her pink face instantly turning as red as a ripe apple, making her incredibly adorable.

Her large, bright eyes gleamed with grievance and dissatisfaction as she stared directly at Chen Xuan.

"Hiss, you're trying to kill me!" Chen Xuan's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Then tell me, how did I bully you?"

"You... well, you just bullied me, so whatever I say goes!" Bixiao put her hands on her hips, pouted, and looked completely self-righteous.

However, her flushed cheeks and evasive eyes betrayed her guilty conscience.

"Alright! You naughty woman, let's see how your husband teaches you a lesson!"

"Hehehe, okay, stop fooling around. I, I was just joking!" Seeing this, Bixiao quickly smiled and begged for forgiveness, taking a few steps back.

But Chen Xuan was not about to let her go. He pressed her relentlessly and soon cornered her against the wall.

"Don't touch my armpits! Waaah! Not even the soles of my feet! Husband, I was wrong!" Bixiao was so frightened that her laughter mixed with her pleas for mercy echoed in the room.

"Too late!" Chen Xuan laughed and stretched out his hand. In an instant, the whole room was filled with laughter and screams from women.

……

After Chen Xuan's lecture, Bi Xiao sincerely realized her mistake and said she would not repeat it.

"I really owe you, you little devil!"

"Hehe, you said it yourself, so I'll make you owe me... for a lifetime!"

"..."

The two were truly helpless about Nezha's impending arrival, and there was nothing they could do to stop it; in the end, they could only let nature take its course.

Although Chen Xuan felt a little guilty and timid at the thought of facing Zhao Gongming in the future, he couldn't keep running away, could he?

"By the way, what kind of things does the Great God Nezha like?" Chen Xuan suddenly asked.

"Hmm? Why are you suddenly asking about this?" Bixiao asked, looking puzzled.

"Well, guests from afar are all honored. They've come all this way and gone through so much trouble to come with you, so it's only right that I don't neglect them, isn't that reasonable?"

Upon hearing this, Bixiao glanced at Chen Xuan again and said with a hint of teasing, "That's true, but speaking of which, what good things can you prepare for him? Or is there something that Nezha is lacking?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan was speechless and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Faced with his wife's teasing gaze, he gritted his teeth, quickly opened the system shop, and redeemed all sorts of dazzling sparkling water without hesitation.

"Huh, what are these things?" Looking at the pile of novel objects she had never seen before, Bixiao couldn't help but ask curiously.

Chen Xuan smiled mysteriously and then introduced the products to her one by one: "This is called fruit juice sparkling water. It is rich in various vitamins and trace elements and has the effects of beautifying the skin, cooling down and relieving summer heat. Of course, for us cultivators, it's just a taste."

As he spoke, he took a bottle of sparkling fruit juice from the shelf and handed it to Bixiao. Bixiao took the bottle, opened the cap, and a rich fruity aroma wafted out, making her unable to resist taking a small sip.

"Mmm, it really tastes good!" Bixiao's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaim.

"These are creamy sparkling waters, with a delicate and smooth texture, which are very popular with children."

"This is called coffee sparkling water. It has a rich and mellow taste and is suitable for coffee lovers."

"coffee?"

"This is the 'fat otaku's happy water,' and its taste... is loved by fat otaku."

"A fat otaku?" Bi Xiao's beautiful eyes were full of confusion, which made Chen Xuan's mouth water. He took a sip of imported sparkling water to calm his nerves.

……

And so, Chen Xuan led Bi Xiao to try all sorts of different flavors of sparkling water.

"How about it? Not bad, right?" Chen Xuan asked with a smile.

Bixiao nodded, looking satisfied, and said, "Yes, it's really good, much better than I imagined."

"Of course, look who did it." Chen Xuan laughed smugly.

"Alright, stop getting so smug." Bixiao rolled her eyes at him, then continued, "Are you planning to use this sparkling water to entertain Nezha?"

Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "Of course not. Although these sparkling waters do taste good, the Great God Nezha might not like them. We can't just use these little things to appease him, can we?"

"So how will you entertain them?"

"At least in my memory, this person probably likes... joining in the fun!"

"join in the fun?"

"Yes, whenever there's a major event in Heaven, although this person isn't always at the forefront, they still do their best for Heaven... but they often end up making things worse. If someone steals the tower, then..."

"Huh? I didn't know you knew so much! He contributed a lot to that monkey and its apprentice back then!"

"I bet he's just bored in Heaven and got all restless!"

"So how do you plan to join in the fun? He doesn't care about these petty squabbles in the cultivation world!"

"I have a brilliant plan!"

As Chen Xuan spoke, he gave Bixiao another kiss before leaving.

"However, he did not go out into the outside world, but came to the mortal realm, to the region where the little penguin lived."

On this mysterious land, there is a mortal kingdom that he specially designated.

At this very moment, this nation is undergoing an unprecedented and immense transformation. Because it is located in the realm of cultivation, it possesses a unique advantage: under the guidance of penguins, its people have miraculously skipped the steam age and the electrical age, directly entering the astonishing age of spiritual power!

Looking around, one can see novel inventions everywhere in the streets and alleys. The so-called spirit-powered carts do not require human or animal power to pull them; they can travel at lightning speed simply by injecting a trace of spiritual energy.

And then there's that spirit saw... to put it bluntly, it's a chainsaw, except its energy source is spiritual energy, along with other miscellaneous things like spirit lamps.

Even in terms of diet, all the workers' energy source depends entirely on absorbing spirit stones. Whether it's the physical strength needed for work or the daily need for food, it can all be satisfied by absorbing the spiritual energy from the spirit stones.

However, the food is still a little different.

Penguins simply modified the small rice balls, imbuing them with spiritual energy. These thumb-sized rice balls can then be swallowed directly by mortals to nourish themselves and achieve the effect of fasting.

Of course, for ordinary people, it cannot replace eating meals by consuming it for a long time. If they don't eat it for a long time, their health will suffer serious problems.

However, although there have been reforms, it is still in its early stages, and many things are still lacking.

For example, there is no advanced radio communication equipment here, so long-distance real-time communication is impossible. Although there are things like sound transmission stones, they ultimately have no visuals, and ordinary people cannot operate them. This is not the penguin's purpose.

Furthermore, while the various pieces of furniture are practical, they still appear somewhat rudimentary and crude compared to the convenient designs of modern society.

Of course, given that the penguins have only been here for a short time, just three years, it's normal that there are many things they can't do yet.

"Oh, big brother, what brings you here?"

Chen Teng was somewhat surprised to see Chen Xuan suddenly appear.

"Nothing much, just checking in to see how your business is going, and if you need any help from me."

"That's exactly what we need!" Chen Teng looked at Chen Xuan, his eyes shining.

“You know, big brother, among that group of people, although there are a few smart ones, the rest can only do manual labor and can’t do research and development work. In addition, the inheritance in my mind is intermittent, so many things cannot quickly surface…”

"Tell me, what do you need?" Chen Xuan rubbed his temples.

"Satellites! I need one... no, I need five satellites!"

"That's ridiculous! How do you even know about satellites? And how do you know I have one?"

"Even when I was still an egg, I could sense all sorts of random things nearby, including satellites!"

Chen Xuan's expression was complicated.

"Are you trying to build a modern nation?"

"No, I just want to create a game, then make a killing, fleece players, and use game mechanics to make them unable to stop playing, to the point of despair, to the point of impotent rage, yet to have no choice but to keep playing after cursing!"

"Ah~~~"

"I can already imagine how satisfying it will be when I get yelled at!" Chen Teng said with a look of pure bliss, letting out a comfortable groan.

"..."
