Urban Demon Refining System

"Is Xiao Chuan alright?" Zhao Dahai asked with a worried expression beside Zhao Baichuan's bedside.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. Xiao Chuan is just entering a deep cultivation state, which is a good thing. It seems that the person inside the sealing stone must be extraordinary, otherwise Xiao Chuan wouldn't have obtained the cultivation technique so quickly." Lin Xueyan said while listening to Zhao Baichuan's breathing.

"That's good!" Zhao Dahai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"However, he may need to lie down for a few days. His first deep training session will take a little longer."

“Yes, I know.” Zhao Dahai nodded. “You went through the same thing back then…” He wanted to say that you went through the same thing back then, but when the words reached his lips, he suddenly felt that it was a bit inappropriate, so he swallowed them back.

"Back then what? What, you still remember what happened back then after all this time apart?!" Lin Xueyan persisted.

"Ahem, let's talk about Xiao Chuan's situation!" Zhao Dahai changed the subject. In truth, he still felt guilty towards his wife.

"Sigh! You're still the same!" Lin Xueyan sighed softly as she looked at her husband. "If we had considered Xiaochuan's situation back then, we wouldn't have ended up separating. It's such a pity for this child; he's never even seen his mother." As she spoke, tears streamed down her face.

"I'll tell him the truth later; it's best not to let him know about it for now."

"I know, I just miss Xiaochuan!" Lin Xueyan held Zhao Baichuan's hand tightly. "It's a pity that my son and I are destined not to recognize each other now."

“Penglai is still a thorn in the side of the Heavenly Court, and Xiao Chuan’s side this time is very likely to be people from the Heavenly Court. You’d better not let her find out.” Zhao Dahai clenched his fist as he spoke. As a man with a strong sense of pride, not being able to reunite with his wife and children was undoubtedly torture for him.

"I will persevere for Xiaochuan's sake. Well, my time to leave is almost up. I must take good care of him!" Lin Xueyan gave her husband and child one last affectionate look before her body slowly became ethereal and finally disappeared completely.

"Sigh!" In the empty bedroom, only Zhao Dahai's sigh, filled with pain and helplessness, remained.

……

Zhao Baichuan felt like he was having a dream. In the dream, he saw his mother, whom he had never met before. However, her body was too blurry for him to see her clearly.

"Xiao Chuan! Xiao Chuan!" the phantom said.

"Mom!" Zhao Baichuan rushed over excitedly, only to find that his mother was nowhere to be seen.

"Mom!" He suddenly turned his head.

"Xiao Chuan! Mom has always been here!" The illusory figure smiled at him. Although he still couldn't see the figure's face clearly, he was certain that it was smiling.

"Mom! Why don't you want me anymore!" Tears streamed down Zhao Baichuan's face without him even realizing it.

"Xiao Chuan, Mom just..." The illusory figure's voice grew softer and softer, and at the same time, her figure slowly faded away.

"Mom!" Zhao Baichuan lunged forward again, but he caught nothing but air.

"No!" he cried out hoarsely as he knelt on the ground, "Mom! Come back!"

"Xiao Chuan! Xiao Chuan!" Zhao Dahai looked anxiously at his son, who was in a frenzied state, by the bedside, and kept slapping his cheeks.

"Hmm..." Finally, Zhao Baichuan groaned and slowly woke up.

"Phew!" Zhao Dahai breathed a sigh of relief. "Did you have another nightmare?"

"No, I dreamt about my mother!" Zhao Baichuan replied.

Zhao Dahai remained silent for a while, then suddenly stood up. "Are you hungry? You've been lying in bed for days. I'll cook you some noodles." Without waiting for a question, he turned and walked towards the kitchen.

"He's been lying down for several days?" Zhao Baichuan was also taken aback. He subconsciously picked up his phone, and the screen clearly showed November 11th!

"Huh, is today Singles' Day?!" He clearly remembered that the day he fell into a coma was November 8th, so how did it become Singles' Day?

"Could it be..." He hurriedly opened the game interface and clicked on his character attribute panel.

Name: Zhao Baichuan

Faction: Baoxiang Kingdom

Titles: Prince Consort of Baoxiang Kingdom, Monster Hunter, Dragon Slayer

Taoist cultivation: 3 days

Realm: First level of Qi Refining

Spirit Coins Value: 31

Items: Sealing Stone (Hundred Flowers Shy), Sealing Stone (Flower Fairy), Sealing Stone (Tricolor Lizard), Demon Refining Teapot, Dragon Soul, Five Elements Sealing Stone (5)

Main cultivation technique: "Hundred Flowers Technique" (Effect halved if gender does not meet requirements)

Everything else remains unchanged, but the cultivation level column, which was previously zero, has changed to 3 days.

"So that's how cultivation is calculated!" Zhao Baichuan finally understood. He realized that cultivation was calculated in this way. But when he thought about it, the great demon cultivators in novels had hundreds or thousands of years of cultivation, which was simply too amazing. If he continued to cultivate at such a slow pace, it would take him forever to catch up with them.

Although the cultivation speed may be a bit slow, it's not without progress. Under the cultivation level, there's now a new "realm" information. Although the first level of Qi Refining Realm is obviously not even as strong as a small shrimp, it's better than nothing. Besides, the Great Wall was built brick by brick, and so is strength.

"The noodles are ready, Xiao Chuan, get up and eat! Fresh egg and gravy noodles!"

"Coming!" Zhao Baichuan got out of bed and walked towards the dining table.

Perhaps because he hadn't eaten for three days, he found the meal particularly delicious.

"Eat slowly!" Zhao Dahai smiled as he watched his son wolf down his food, feeling somewhat relieved. "Xueyan, I will definitely take good care of our child!" he said silently to himself.

"Dad! Your cooking skills have improved recently, much better than before." Zhao Baichuan gave Zhao Dahai a thumbs up while eating.

"Stop talking nonsense, spit it out!"

"Dad knows me best!" Zhao Baichuan chuckled. "I just wanted to ask, so..."

"Ring ring ring..." Just as he was about to ask Zhao Dahai about the paper talisman, his phone suddenly rang.

"Dad, I'm going to answer this phone!"

"go Go!"

"Okay!" Zhao Baichuan went back to his bedroom and answered the phone.

"Hello! Xiao Mo..." It was Lin Xiao Mo who made the call.

"Hey! Zhao Baichuan, I'm downstairs at your place. Are you feeling better? I'd like to come over and see you!"

"Oh! Come on over! Room 602." Zhao Baichuan walked to the window and looked out. Sure enough, he saw a beautiful figure in a school uniform looking in this direction. Who else could it be but Lin Xiaomo?
