Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 197: Jiu Ji Gives Birth (22)

[You have successfully cursed Cai Ziyin, causing his forehead to turn black, bringing bad luck upon him, and causing him to lose ten years of cultivation.]

"Hoo--"

"Hoo--"

"Hoo--"

By the time the prompt appeared, Chen An was already exhausted, his whole body drained.

The difference in cultivation level was too great.

With his current strength at the seventh level of the Gold Core, it was quite difficult for him to curse a ninth elder at the same level as the sect master.

Not just difficult, but very difficult!

"Spells and Law Weapons are ultimately just enhancements. In the end, it still relies on cultivation level. I need to speed up my cultivation progress," Chen An thought to himself.

Time flies like an arrow.

Days and months pass like a shuttle.

The days went by like this, one after another.

Without realizing it, a month had already passed.

During these days, Chen An diligently refined spiritual stones for cultivation.

He was very diligent.

However, his cultivation didn't increase much.

The path of cultivation is long.

Each breakthrough in realm requires decades or even hundreds of years of effort.

Just a month of effort can be considered close to zero.

"Too slow," Chen An sensed his cultivation growth and couldn't help but shake his head with a sigh.

He had been spoiled by the system.

If he couldn't break through a realm within half a year, he felt as slow as a snail.

"No, relying solely on refining spiritual stones for cultivation, I'm afraid I won't be able to break through to the Soul Formation Stage," he said.

"I still have to rely on my daughters."

"But now, I've already taught them everything I can teach. What else can I teach them?"

Chen An fell into contemplation.

His two daughters were still young, and there weren't many skills they could learn. He had already taught them everything he could teach.

What was left were some high-level skills.

The two little ones were still less than ten years old, so teaching them high-level skills would be a bit premature.

While he was deep in thought, a prompt suddenly appeared before his eyes.

[Your daughter, Chen Yike, has had her Fire Spiritual Root upgraded to Immortal Grade. You are rewarded with fifty years of cultivation, and your Fire Spiritual Root has also been upgraded to Immortal Grade.]

[Name: Chen An]

[Cultivation: Eighth level of the Gold Core]

[Fire Spiritual Root: Immortal Grade]

"?" Chen An had a question mark above his head.

What's going on?

Why did my silly second daughter's Fire Spiritual Root suddenly skyrocket in quality?

Chen An was a bit confused. After a moment, he immediately spread his divine sense to cover the entire Cave Mansion and found his silly second daughter's figure in the corner of the kitchen.

He used Earth Escape Technique to quickly appear there.

What he saw was his silly second daughter sitting on a rock, happily eating an egg she was holding in her arms, with oil dripping from her mouth.

"Dad, am I amazing? I learned to cook eggs by myself!" Chen Yike said proudly when she saw her father appear.

After speaking, she peeled off some eggshell, revealing a steaming piece of egg white, and handed a palm-sized piece to her father, saying, "Dad, try it quickly. It's delicious!"

Chen An looked at the piece of egg white handed to him by his silly daughter and almost fainted.

Damn it!

This is the egg of the Three-Legged Golden Crow!

How did this melon child cook this egg!

How did the old tree not notice the egg!

Chen An picked up his silly daughter and took her to the side of the Sage Tree, questioning Sage Tree in a cold voice.

"Old Tree, what's going on?"

"I asked you to take care of the bird's egg, but you let it be eaten like this?"

"It ended up in Second Miss's mouth!"

"This, this, this!"

Seeing the half-eaten bird's egg in Chen Yike's arms, Sage Tree's eyes widened, full of horror, and said, "Second Miss, you said you just wanted to touch the egg, how did you end up cooking and eating it when I wasn't paying attention? I'm so confused!"

"I didn't know!" Chen Yike pretended to be innocent. After speaking, she even broke off another piece of egg white and stuffed it into her mouth, eating it with relish.

Sage Tree was at a loss, trembling with fear, and begged Chen An, "Dashing and handsome sir, I'm so sorry!"

"I shouldn't have believed the lies of the beautiful and charming Second Miss!"

"The Second Miss said she just wanted to touch the egg, so I let her touch it. I didn't expect her to sneak into the kitchen while I wasn't paying attention and cook and eat the egg. I'm so confused!"

"It's all my fault. Please, wise and mighty sir, punish me!"

"As long as you don't burn me as firewood, no matter how you punish me, I deserve it!"

Sage Tree flattered while begging for mercy, showing a strong will to survive.

Chen An sighed again and thought it over. He decided to let it go. He would still need the Sage Tree to teach his two daughters in the future, so he would just scold the Sage Tree a little and move on from this matter.

The Sage Tree was overjoyed and flattered Chen An excessively. His voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of the women in the house.

"Husband, what happened?" Song Huaying was the first to ask after coming over.

Chen An briefly summarized the situation to his wives and concubines, explaining that the Sage Tree had not properly protected the egg and it had been taken by Chen Yike and cooked.

When Wen Zhiyun heard what had happened, her expression immediately turned cold as she looked at her foolish daughter.

Chen Yike was scared and trembling, hiding in her father's arms.

Seeing this, Chen An sighed and said, "Forget it, if she ate it, she ate it. This is the egg of the Three-Legged Golden Crow, which can nourish the fire spirit root in Xiaoyike's body. It's not a waste for her to eat it."

After speaking, he patted his second daughter's sturdy buttocks and said to her, "Don't just think about eating it yourself, share some with your mother and sisters."

"Yes, yes, yes," Chen Yike nodded frantically.

Although she wanted to eat it all by herself, she wasn't stupid. She knew that secretly cooking and eating the egg was a heinous act and she needed to share it to appease everyone's anger.

She quickly climbed down from her father's arms and ran to Gu Xinyue's side, asking her to cut the egg and distribute it to everyone.

"Husband, you spoil her too much. She will be spoiled sooner or later!" Wen Zhiyun complained.

Chen An calmly said, "It's okay. After she finishes eating the egg and digests it, you can take her into the room and give her a beating."

Wives and concubines: 6.

On the other side.

Chen Yike in the kitchen was still unaware that she might be facing her mother's scolding next. She was still drooling and asking Gu Xinyue to cut her portion of the egg into more pieces.

Soon enough, the whole family sat together to eat the egg.

Half an hour later.

Everyone had finished eating.

The egg was delicious.

But no one dared to say it was delicious.

After all, it was the egg of the Three-Legged Golden Crow, and the reason they could eat it was because Chen Yike had caused trouble.

"Go back to the room with your mother."

Wen Zhiyun wiped her foolish daughter's mouth and then, under her puzzled gaze, carried her into the room and closed the door.

Immediately, a burst of crying like a pig came from the room.

"Waaah, waaah, waaah..."

...

Time flies.

Months later.

Unbeknownst to anyone, Jiu Ji has been pregnant for over nine months now, her belly protruding high and looking even bigger than Wen Zhiyun's belly when she was pregnant for a year.

On this day.

Jiu Ji feels a little uncomfortable and rests in her room.

Everyone is concerned about her health and comes to visit her in her room.

She is very touched and says, "Sisters, you are so kind."

"Jiu Ji, why is your belly so big? It's almost twice the size of mine when I was pregnant with Xiaoyuejian. Is there something wrong?" Song Huaying worries.

She feels that Jiu Ji's belly is abnormally large and is worried that it will affect Jiu Ji's health.

Jiu Ji smiles with her beautiful eyes slightly curved and says, "Sister Song, don't worry. My husband checks the condition of the baby in my belly every day with his spiritual consciousness. The baby is very healthy, there is no problem, it's just that, like me, the baby is born with nine tails, so it inevitably makes my belly bigger."

"I see, as long as everything is fine."

Song Huaying breathes a sigh of relief, but she can't help but feel a little envious of Jiu Ji, envious that she is carrying a genius in her belly.

Gu Xinyue sits by the bed, holding Jiu Ji's jade hand and asks with concern, "Jiu Ji, is there anything you want to eat? Sister Gu will go to the kitchen and make it for you."

"Thank you, Sister Gu, for your kindness. I am in the final stage of pregnancy now, so it is not advisable to eat other food. I just need to absorb a little bit of my husband's essence every day," Jiu Ji says with a faint smile.

When Wen Zhiyun sees that it's almost time, she says to everyone, "Alright, it's getting late. Everyone should leave and not disturb Jiu Ji's rest."

Upon hearing this, the others gradually leave the room.

Before leaving, Shen Qingyi says to Jiu Ji, "Jiu Ji, if you need any help in the future, you can find me anytime."

"Yes, I know. Thank you, Sister Shen."

Jiu Ji smiles slightly.

Soon, there are only Jiu Ji, Wen Zhiyun, and Chen An left in the room.

Wen Zhiyun looks at Chen An and says, "Why are you still lingering here?"

"What do you mean by lingering here?" Chen An says helplessly, "I am Jiu Ji's husband, of course I want to stay and accompany her."

Wen Zhiyun glances at him and says, "Jiu Ji doesn't need you to accompany her. It's better for you to leave quickly. I'll be here to keep her company."

"Wen sister, you misunderstood." Jiu Ji smiles and speaks for her husband, "He didn't bother me. It was my initiative to serve him. Sister Song taught me many ways for women to get along with their husbands during pregnancy. I can make use of them now."

"Yinger, you always like to study those embarrassing things. It's fine if you study them yourself, but you also like to teach others. Look, you've been influenced by her."

Wen Zhiyun looks a little annoyed.

Chen An laughs after hearing that and can't help but tease her, "That sounds nice. I think you've also learned a lot from Yinger about those embarrassing things. You've been quite diligent in using them at night."

"You better watch your mouth!" Wen Zhiyun's secret is exposed, and her face turns red instantly. She feels a bit embarrassed and says, "Get out of here quickly, don't stay here and be a nuisance!"

Chen An smiles and doesn't say anything. With a thought, he uses the Earth Escape Technique to leave.

Just as he left the room in less than a second, Wen Zhiyun's voice rang out, "Husband, Jiu Ji's water broke, she's going into labor!"
