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

"Oh dear, what a tragedy! What sins did I commit in my past life to end up with a... villainous young man like you!"

From Chen Xuan's simple and cramped stone house came Zheng Yaqin's soft sigh.

It had been a full month since she last went to work. During this long period, she had to stay by Chen Xuan's side day and night, assisting him in his cultivation.

Even when it was time to leave work and go home, she still had to return to his place with Chen Xuan and live with the two senior colleagues.

However, to her astonishment, in just one month, her cultivation level had soared to the eighth level of the Human Immortal Realm!

All of this is thanks to Chen Xuan's incredible support abilities, which are truly terrifying!

"Hey, you woman, how dare you say you've suffered? Have you forgotten? Last time, I don't know who it was, crying their eyes out, begging me to guide your cultivation!" Chen Xuan said with a slight smile.

Hearing this, Zheng Yaqin immediately became furious, her eyebrows furrowing in anger. She scolded playfully, "You scoundrel! Last time it was clearly you... Humph, you despicable villain, you're the best at playing tricks on others in the world!"

Before she could finish speaking, a blush instantly spread across her pretty face, making her look extremely alluring.

Immediately afterwards, she raised her delicate pink hands and kept pinching Chen Xuan, as if she wanted to vent all the shyness and anger in her heart.

"Look at this blue-silver flower that will never fade. I picked this out especially for you."

"If you ever encounter any trouble in the future, just look at this flower and gently call my name, and I will surely come to your aid!" Chen Xuan said with a smile, gazing tenderly at Zheng Yaqin.

"Hmph, stop bragging! You're just a minor True Immortal. In this Immortal Realm, there are countless powerful beings. What role can you possibly play?" Zheng Yaqin said coquettishly, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up, revealing an undisguised joy.

She gently took the blue-silver flower and carefully placed it into her cascading hair, instantly making her even more radiant and beautiful.

The two of them laughed and joked around like that, seemingly forgetting everything around them.

After a moment, they smiled at each other, understood each other perfectly, stopped their playful banter, and began to seriously cultivate.

It should be noted that at this moment, Zheng Yaqin and Chen Xuan's compatibility has reached a true 100%, so there is no need for many words, they can understand each other perfectly.

As an immortal, I am well aware of the preciousness of time.

Of course, Chen Xuan wasn't idle, and neither were the Immortal Kings outside.

At this time, the outer perimeter of the Immortal Mine had already gathered the vast majority of the Immortal King's troops. Among these people were not only his capable generals and carefully taught disciples, but also some relatives and family members.

Everyone present now clearly understood the objective of this operation—to eliminate Chen Xuan!

Therefore, everyone seemed eager to try, rubbing their hands together as if they were just waiting for a command to rush into the immortal mine and wreak havoc.

Among this group of people, two women stood out. One was a beautiful woman wearing a bright red robe and equally fiery red boots, with her fiery red hair flowing in the wind.

The other woman was dressed in a black outfit, with a graceful figure and stunning beauty, exuding a mature and sophisticated aura.

The beautiful woman in red robes was named Yan Nishang. She came from the renowned Crimson Flame Clan in the Immortal Realm and was the eldest legitimate daughter of the clan, so her high status was self-evident.

However, compared to her family background, what is more well-known to the world is her other, more illustrious identity—the beloved wife of the Green Source Immortal King.

For this reason, people outside the family usually respectfully call her Lady Crimson Flame.

Lady Crimson Flame possesses an extremely fiery personality. Not only does she have astonishing strength, but she also advances rapidly through her exceptional cultivation, closing in on the legendary Immortal King realm.

Such achievements made her the most talked-about and proudest asset of the Green Source Immortal King.

At this moment, Lady Crimson Flame stood with her arms crossed in front of her chest, her graceful figure radiating an invisible pressure.

Her beautiful eyes flashed with an extremely sharp and cold light, as if capable of freezing one's soul. The chilling killing intent contained within them sent shivers down one's spine.

"Hmph, that Chen Xuan is nothing but an insignificant ant, yet he dares to be so audacious as to offend the supreme majesty of a Celestial King? He truly doesn't know what's good for him! Since I, his wife, am personally taking action today, I will ensure that he never returns and dies here!"

Upon hearing this, Leng Ruoyun, a sophisticated woman dressed in black, let out a soft, cold laugh. A hint of disdain and mockery appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.

"Lady Crimson Flame, you'd better not underestimate your opponent. My father emphasized to me that Chen Xuan is no ordinary person. I've heard that he possesses extraordinary skills and his actions are quite unpredictable."

"If you are careless and negligent... hehe, you might even fall into trouble yourself!" At the end, Leng Ruoyun deliberately giggled, her clear and melodious laughter echoing in the air, adding a strange touch to the originally tense and solemn atmosphere.

"Hmph, why should a greenhorn like you have a say in this matter? If you're scared, you can just wait outside. I'm actually hoping that none of you will dare to go in, so that I'll be the only one to enter!"

"When that time comes, once I capture Chen Xuan and successfully obtain the time reward bestowed by the Immortal Venerable, I will instantly ascend to the position of Immortal King and enjoy unparalleled glory!" Lady Crimson Flame also spoke sarcastically, her face full of disdain.

Upon hearing this, Leng Ruoyun's expression darkened, but fearing that the two sides would start fighting before even entering, she refrained from retorting further for the sake of the overall situation.

However, Lady Crimson Flame had no intention of letting it go. She continued to mock, "What, you dare not speak now? If it weren't for your father being a Celestial King, I would definitely show you today just how cruel and ruthless this Celestial Realm can be!"

"You shameless woman, don't push your luck!"

"Who are you calling shameless?!"

"What's wrong with me talking to you!"
