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

"Big brother, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for a long time. I didn't know your wife was coming too. I'm so sorry for my rudeness." Chen Xuan looked at Xia Chuwei, his eyes filled with a question.

Seeing this, Xia Chuwei lowered her head and remained silent.

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!" Yu Guili didn't want to pay any attention to Chen Xuan.

"Turtle Fish! How dare you talk like that? He's calling you 'Big Brother,' and you're still not giving him a friendly look!" Xia Chuwei was immediately displeased when she saw Yu Guili not giving Chen Xuan a friendly look.

"Chu Wei, he's just a little..."

“That won’t do either!” Xia Chuwei said softly.

Before she finished speaking, she had already taken light steps and walked up to Chen Xuan. Her beautiful eyes were filled with affection as she gazed at the young man before her.

"Xiao Xuan, please don't take his words to heart. That's just how he's always been. If he does anything that upsets you, you must tell your sister-in-law, and she... will make it up to you!"

As Xia Chuwei spoke, she lowered her head slightly, and a blush crept onto her fair, jade-like cheeks.

Even though they were about to leave, this woman was still playing with fire.

Looking at his sister-in-law's shy and adorable appearance, Chen Xuan couldn't help but grin: "Hehe, sister-in-law, what are you saying! My brother is just being kind by taking me out to broaden my horizons. He's so good to me, you really don't need to worry!"

Hearing Chen Xuan's words, Xia Chuwei nodded gently and replied softly, "Yes, that's good. I came here specially this time, but there's nothing else to do, I just wanted to see you off, brother."

"Oh, I see! Brother, look how kind and considerate your wife is! To be able to marry such a gentle and virtuous woman is truly a blessing from a past life!" Chen Xuan said to Gui Li with a big smile.

Upon hearing this, Yu Guili's lips curled up slightly, and he snorted, "Hmph, do I need you to remind me? It's getting late, let's hurry up and get going, lest we miss something."

"Yes, yes, let's hurry up and set off, it wouldn't be good if we were late," Chen Xuan quickly agreed. And so, the two embarked on their journey together, their figures gradually disappearing into the distance.

……

After saying goodbye to Xia Chuwei, Chen Xuan and Yu Guili quickly disappeared into the distance.

Not long after, Yu Guili waved his hand, summoning several obsequious-looking lackeys. These men followed Chen Xuan and Yu Guili with fawning expressions, and the group marched in a grand procession toward the central spatial tunnel.

The spatial tunnel was located at the core of the entire Immortal Realm, surrounded by swirling clouds and mist, making it mysterious and unpredictable.

From afar, it resembled a gigantic silver vortex, radiating a chilling light. When the group finally arrived at the spatial tunnel, a powerful energy surge washed over them, leaving them utterly awestruck.

Chen Xuan curiously examined the magnificent building before him, secretly marveling at it. At that moment, Yu Guili spoke, "This place was built by the Space Immortal Venerable with countless efforts. Its purpose is to provide access to any corner of the Immortal Realm. If you wish to travel or undertake missions in the future, you will need to use this spatial tunnel."

However, you must remember one thing: anyone wishing to use this spatial tunnel must obtain my or the Immortal Venerable's personal permission. Otherwise, unauthorized intruders will be severely punished.

"Now, let me personally demonstrate to you how to use this thing!"

As he spoke, he stepped forward and walked to a huge stone tablet next to the space tunnel.

He stretched out his right hand and gently pressed it on the stone tablet, chanting incantations. After a moment, the stone tablet suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and then a complex and mysterious rune pattern slowly emerged.

As the rune patterns appeared, the spatial tunnel slowly opened, its interior shimmering with light, as if beckoning everyone.

Upon seeing this, Yu Guili took the lead and stepped in first, followed closely by Chen Xuan, and then the lackeys followed in single file.

After a dizzying moment, the group arrived inside a huge palace and then walked out.

Outside the palace was a bustling and lively place.

The surrounding area was decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, exuding an antique charm. The people coming and going were all dressed in fine clothes and had an extraordinary air about them, clearly indicating that it was an upper-class gathering.

Yu Guili strode forward with his head held high. Chen Xuan looked around curiously and saw that in the courtyard ahead, a group of people were sitting together, enjoying tea and music, chatting and laughing.

A middle-aged man in a brocade robe saw Yu Guili and stood up, smiling, "Brother Yu, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for a long time." Yu Guili nodded slightly in greeting, and then instructed Chen Xuan:

"This is a good opportunity for you to broaden your horizons. See the guards over there? I've already spoken to them beforehand. You can go directly over and hand over your duties. Just be careful not to let anyone disrupt the order of the gathering."

After saying this, Yu Guili didn't want to hear what Chen Xuan had to say and left directly.

"They really treat me like a bodyguard! But that's fine, it makes it easier for me to do some of my own things." Chen Xuan said, then dropped a seed in a corner before walking towards the bodyguard team.

"Boom!"

The next instant, dark clouds filled the sky, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.

"This is... a heavenly tribulation? Who is this fellow cultivator undergoing tribulation here?"

"Yes, judging by its power, it seems quite formidable! Whose prodigy is this?" Many noble families exclaimed in admiration.

"But this person doesn't know how to pick a place. This is a place for us to enjoy ourselves, but someone undergoing tribulation has come..."

In an instant, a fierce wind howled, causing everyone's clothes to flutter loudly. Large raindrops pounded down with the wind, plunging the world into chaos.

The tribulation clouds in the sky were like a black mountain, pressing heavily on everyone's heads. Lightning flashed and purple lightning crisscrossed within them. Every lightning bolt was accompanied by a deafening roar, as if it would tear the heavens and the earth apart.

Besides the highly skilled members of the powerful families, the onlookers also gasped in surprise. Some looked terrified and hurriedly retreated, while others stared wide-eyed at the sky, their faces filled with shock and envy.

However, a carefree male guard in the corner didn't even look up, just happily eating the delicious food in his hand.

"This lightning tribulation... is no ordinary lightning tribulation!" an old man said.

"Yes, just which powerful being is undergoing tribulation here?!"

Just as everyone was discussing this, a figure slowly rose from the center of the lightning tribulation; it was Chen Xuan.
