Chapter 214: Chapter 114: 70 Children’s Draw, Profound Origin Bead!_3
Lu Miaoge gave Lu Changsheng a peck on the cheek and then threw back the covers.
A pair of slender, jade-like legs stretched out, and the crystal-clear, crescent-moon like feet touched the ground, presenting her beautifully curved figure as she quickly dressed.
She restored herself to the usual ethereal beauty, as pure as snow and as elegant as a celestial.
However, at this moment, the tenderness on her face made her seem less ethereal than usual.
“Changsheng, I will head there first.”
Lu Miaoge said gently.
“Alright, Sister Miaoge, be careful.”
Lu Changsheng nodded.
With the beautiful lady having departed, Lu Changsheng also got up, exhaled softly, and dressed himself.
He could feel that, although Lu Miaoge was close and intimate with him,
she seemed to be indulging and appeasing him a bit.
Or rather, Lu Miaoge didn’t entertain the idea of marrying him.
Therefore, she tried to accommodate him in other aspects, as a form of compensation.
“After all, we are missing a certain opportunity.”
“Or perhaps, the young lady has a hurdle in her heart she can’t overcome.”
Lu Changsheng had a rough idea of why Lu Miaoge behaved this way.
One reason was the issue with the Fourth Elder and Lu Miaoyun, which Lu Miaoge didn’t know how to face.
The other was having children.
Lu Miaoge still harbored the ambition of the path of cultivation.
Aiming for a slim chance at Foundation Establishment.
Having children would undoubtedly delay and affect her cultivation.
“Sigh, I don’t necessarily need to have children either.”
Lu Changsheng shook his head.
As for having children, he also left it to personal choice.
If Lu Miaoge truly didn’t want to, he wouldn’t force her to do anything.
After all, he very much understood such matters for cultivators.
However, in his case, with many wives, concubines, and maids, children were plenty.
Any woman marrying him was likely influenced, feeling the need to have at least a couple of children.
“But now I have to stay here for half a year, the matter of having children will have to be put aside.”
Lu Changsheng sighed.
He thought of how he had sent back to Qingzhu Mountain all his maids with Spiritual Roots.
Now, in Nine Dragons Marketplace aside from Xiao Qing, the other maids did not possess Spiritual Roots.
Under such circumstances, his plans for superior progeny became somewhat challenging.
“Do I need to visit the White Jade Tower again?”
Lu Changsheng pondered to himself.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve performed a good deed, I’ll take it as doing something good.”
After considering, Lu Changsheng decided to make a trip to the White Jade Tower after all.
After all, his efforts at breeding superior offspring mustn’t cease.
Counting Lu Miaoge, he only had eleven wives, concubines, and maids with Spiritual Roots.
Meanwhile.
Red Leaf Valley.
“Senior, are you saying that you are willing to lend a hand to the Chen Family!”
Chen Family Patriarch Chen Shuisheng asked the petite youth before him, with respect.
“Indeed, I have an old grudge with someone from the Lu Family.”
“Hearing that there is a blood feud between your Chen Family and the Lu Family, and with the Lu Family Ancestor about to pass away, I’ve come to settle this grudge and, by the way, claim a share of the spoils.”
Meng Xiaochan said aloud.
“That would certainly be acceptable, may I know what conditions or requirements you have, Senior?”
Chen Shuisheng continued respectfully upon hearing this.
After all, despite his unimpressive appearance, the slim youth before him was a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator.
….
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.
Lu Changsheng had also added three maids in his courtyard at the Nine Dragons Market.
They were, of course, the unfortunate souls he had rescued from White Jade Tower.
All three possessed Spiritual Roots.
However, their Spiritual Roots were not high, only Ninth Grade Spiritual Roots.
It wasn’t that Lu Changsheng had run out of Spirit Stones.
He thought that since he couldn’t afford maids with Middle Grade Spiritual Roots anyway, he might as well save some money.
He also just wanted to see how much his Middle Grade Spiritual Root would influence his children’s Spiritual Roots.
“Phew! With this pace, in half a year, I should be able to break through to the Eighth Level Energy Refinement.”
Inside the Spiritual Talisman Shop, Lu Changsheng, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
Having such a cultivation speed was partly thanks to the assistance of the Tender Embrace Technique.
Another reason was that he continuously spent money and boosted his progress with Elixir Medicines.
But with this speed of cultivation, Lu Changsheng still wasn’t satisfied.
After finishing his cultivation session, Lu Changsheng stood up and went to the Talisman Room, ready to draw talismans.
Although he had come to Nine Dragons Market to take charge, the number of talismans he had to draw every month had indeed increased.
He also had to spend quite some time each day drawing talismans.
Just as he had taken out the talisman-making materials and was about to start the talisman making process,
a system prompt rang out.
[Congratulations to the host for having seventy descendants, you have earned one lucky draw chance!]
“Hmm? Really twenty portions of Child Money?”
“In that case, by the looks of it, will the next one be at ninety or a hundred children?”
Hearing this system prompt, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and speculate.
“However, this time, neither Jiang Louyue nor Yu Yao’s children have Spiritual Roots.”
The next moment, Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly.
He clearly remembered who the mothers of his sixty-ninth and seventieth children were during this period.
But neither of the children had shown signs of Spiritual Root pulsations, indicating that they did not possess Spiritual Roots.
“System, draw the prize.”
Without giving it too much thought, Lu Changsheng silently uttered in his mind,
wondering if this time the lucky draw could bring him a pleasant surprise.
Immediately, the great spinning wheel of the system appeared.
“Begin the lucky draw!”
Lu Changsheng said without hesitation.
The spinning wheel was aglow with golden brilliance as it began to turn.
It then slowly came to rest on the ‘Treasure’ section of the lucky draw panel.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a rare treasure: Profound Origin Bead!]
[The reward has been sent to the System Space, and the host can check it at any time]
A pattern of a deep blue bead, along with the system prompt, appeared.
“A rare treasure, the Profound Origin Bead?”
Seeing the reward he had drawn this time, Lu Changsheng was somewhat curious.
He immediately looked towards the System Space.
To check out what this Profound Origin Bead was.
[Profound Origin Bead]
[Grade: Third Rank]
[Description: Born from the Profound Origin Waters, it can absorb nature’s spiritual energy on its own, store Spiritual Energy, and after refinement, it is like a cultivator’s second Qi Ocean Core. It allows an Energy Refinement Late Stage cultivator to be comparable to Foundation Establishment, and a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator to be comparable to False Core!]
“Ss, it can absorb nature’s spiritual energy on its own, and after refinement, it acts like a second Qi Ocean Core. Late Stage Energy Refinement comparable to Foundation Establishment? Late Stage Foundation Establishment comparable to False Core?”
Lu Changsheng, looking at the description of this rare treasure before him, was taken aback.
He had previously thought about whether he could draw something that would quickly enhance his strength.
But that was just wishful thinking, without much expectation.
To his surprise, the system had now awarded him a Third Rank rare treasure, the Profound Origin Bead.
After refinement, Late Stage Energy Refinement would be comparable to Foundation Establishment.
Late Stage Foundation Establishment comparable to False Core!
Such effects were truly astonishing!
