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

After dealing with Chen Wenwen, Chen Xuan left the Blue Star Secret Realm.

They've been here quite a while this time. If they stay any longer, the Zhao family will probably get worried.

The moment he appeared in his own yard, he was instantly locked onto by a powerful aura. Only after recognizing Zhao Lingwu did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Where have you been? Do you know how worried the Zhao family is? Do you know how anxious they are?!" Zhao Lingwu glared at Chen Xuan.

"I've been in the courtyard the whole time! With my strength, where could I possibly go!" Chen Xuan smiled as he approached and embraced the beauty.

"Don't touch me! Do you think I don't know your strength? You just won't tell me the truth, huh!" Zhao Lingwu gently pushed Chen Xuan, but when she found she couldn't push him away, she let him be.

As Chen Xuan's lawfully wedded wife, she naturally knew many of Chen Xuan's secrets. Calling him a good-for-nothing was simply the most ridiculous thing ever!

"Hehehe, my wife, don't be angry. Your husband will make it up to you properly later!"

"Pah, are you trying to get compensation? I don't even want to call you out on it! Besides, I'm already pregnant!"

"Well, it was my oversight, my husband. Well then..." Chen Xuan whispered in her ear, and Zhao Lingwu's cheeks instantly turned bright red.

"Go away, I don't want to reward you. I've noticed you're getting more and more perverted! Where did you put Wenwen?" Zhao Lingwu asked, pouting.

"Well, I'll explain it to you slowly. By the way, here's something to help me contact you." Chen Xuan swept Zhao Lingwu into his arms and carried her into the house.

As Zhao Lingwu began to sing, Huang Meihua next door also breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that you're back. Now I can carry out my plan!"

……

The next morning, Zhao Lingwu was still in a state of slight shock.

Part of her shock stemmed from the fact that Chen Xuan possessed a secret realm, while another part was the astonishment she felt at Chen Xuan's ability to forge new paths, which left her...

Chen Xuan didn't care about this. After all, the little fairy was already free of any impurities, so he could freely use his talents.

Just as Chen Xuan was grinning mischievously, about to impart some more cultivation insights to Zhao Lingwu, there was a knock on the gate of his courtyard.

"Who is it? So annoying so early in the morning!"

"I guess it's that woman!" Zhao Lingwu said with a smile. Then she broke free from Chen Xuan and pushed him off the bed.

She refused to call Huang Meihua "sister-in-law".

For the past three months, Huang Meihua has frequently visited, specifically requesting Chen Xuan's guidance on her cultivation. However, the results have been minimal each time, a world apart from Chen Wenwen's progress.

Although she didn't say anything, Chen Xuan knew in his heart that she wouldn't give up so easily, and that's why she came to bother him again.

"Ugh, this is such a hassle! What kind of trouble is this?!"

"Alright, alright, she is what she is, you go ahead! I won't see her, otherwise she'll insist I call her sister-in-law!"

"Alright!" Chen Xuan stood up, kissed Zhao Lingwu's forehead, and then left.

"What a clingy little husband he is!"

……

"Sister-in-law, you're here today too? I wonder what questions you have?" Chen Xuan smiled as he approached Huang Meihua, then frowned.

Her outfit today is so formal that not a single inch of skin is showing!

Although Huang Meihua's makeup was exquisite and elegant at this time, with soft eyebrows and light powder, she exuded the confidence and composure of a mature woman.

Wearing an elegant dark blue dress adorned with delicate lace trim, she exuded a noble air.

But! Normally, she would always try to get me to look at her more than once, so why did she suddenly change her style today!

"Hehe, I'm not here to see Young Master Chen today!" Huang Meihua giggled.

"Oh? You're not here to see Ling Wu, are you?"

"Exactly."

"May I ask what you need her for?"

"Of course, after all, you are my little sister's husband! You can just pass on a message to her, saying that today is the day to collect the resources and she needs to go there in person."

"I see. Well then, thank you in advance, sister-in-law!" Chen Xuan suddenly realized.

The Huang, Zhao, and Gao families, as lackeys of the Zhou royal family, serve the royal family and are naturally entitled to some "salary" from the royal family. Today is the time to "receive their salary".

Because the salary is quite high, it is usually the strongest members of each family who go to collect it together. Zhao Lingwu is currently the strongest among the younger generation of the Zhao family, so this responsibility naturally falls to her.

"No, no, we're all... family!" Huang Meihua turned her back, a look of madness flashing across her face.

That wretched Chen Xuan! In these three months, she tried almost every method, but still couldn't find out how Zhao Wenwen cultivated!

Furthermore, he wasted his own time, giving her haphazard guidance in cultivation. Most importantly, he practiced singing with others at home every day, making her never have a moment of peace!

Do you know how much this disturbance makes her, someone who hasn't had a drink of water for over ten or twenty years, suffer?! Do you even know that?!

Today is her chance, her chance to get revenge on Chen Xuan! If she seizes this opportunity, she and the Huang family might even rise to great heights!

Seeing this, Chen Xuan had no doubts and went back to his room to inform Zhao Lingwu.

"Oh no! I, how could I forget that today is for collecting resources! It's all your fault, you've been so clingy!" Zhao Lingwu hurriedly straightened her clothes while kicking him with her white jade pendant.

"Alright, alright, it's all my fault. My Lingwu never makes mistakes. Is this okay?" Chen Xuan grabbed the white jade and said with a smile.

"Let go of me! She's still outside. You just wait for me at home! If you get bored, you can go inside and keep them company..."

After giving some instructions, Zhao Lingwu left the Zhao family with Huang Meihua and headed to the collection point.

Watching Zhao Lingwu leave, Chen Xuan felt somewhat at a loss. Now, apart from Lin Shuiyao, all the women in the secret realm were pregnant and in seclusion.

After all, Chen Xuan's cultivation level was improving every day. If they didn't want to experience life and death with him, they had to work hard to cultivate, improve their cultivation level, and increase their lifespan!

Even the maid Liu Yun unexpectedly became pregnant at an unexpected time. In addition, since his cultivation has a cooldown period, he will probably only be facing a series of cultivation rooms when he goes in now.

"Well, I've got nothing to do, so I'll cultivate for a while and browse the shop to see if there's anything good."

……

Unbeknownst to Chen Xuan, several of the Zhao family's retainers were gathered together, discussing something unknown...
