Many Children And Many Blessings, I Am Flourishing In The Immortal Cultivation World
Chapter 12 Returning To The Sect
Early morning, in the backyard of the Chen family.
Several children, accompanied by the rising sun, were following their father's reading in the house, their tender voices sounding particularly pleasant.
Children without spiritual roots would study and engage in business, gradually taking over the Chen family's industry. Children with spiritual roots would study in the morning and practice under the guidance of Bai Ling'er and Su Yunxue in the afternoon, sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and opening their dantian.
"Father is here!"
"Father, I missed you so much!"
"Father, you haven't played with us for the past few days!"
The children were studying when Chen Daoxuan strolled over with his hands behind his back. Upon seeing Chen Daoxuan, the children stood up one after another, and the younger ones pounced on him, acting spoiled.
Looking at these tender faces and feeling the essence of their blood and bones, Chen Daoxuan smiled with a fatherly expression and caressed their heads.
"Father!"
"Father!"
Compared to these tender children, Chen Daoxuan's eldest son and daughter, Chen Qingyang and Chen Siling, although only six or seven years old, already had the demeanor of adults and were much more composed.
Although these two children had average spiritual roots, they were extremely intelligent and had the appearance of responsible older siblings.
"You have worked hard studying these past few days. Take a day off today and go play."
Chen Daoxuan waved his hand with a smile.
"Thank you, Father!"
The children cheered happily around Chen Daoxuan.
"Mr. Liu, can I have a word with you?"
Chen Daoxuan looked at the teacher.
"Yes, Master."
Liu Zhe respectfully replied.
Liu Zhe was a great scholar in the city, knowledgeable in ancient texts and poems, and also had a good understanding of business. Most importantly, ordinary people needed to open their dantian to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for slow cultivation. However, Liu Zhe had no spiritual roots or talent for cultivation, yet through years of research, he unexpectedly entered the Qi Refining Stage through the path of studying books.
Although he could only reach this stage in this lifetime and did not possess any Divine Abilities or techniques, he was far superior to ordinary people. Not to mention greatly extending his lifespan, even a dozen ordinary people couldn't come close to him.
Chen Daoxuan had also spent a lot of money to invite him to teach the children at home.
Chen Daoxuan and Liu Zhe went to a nearby side room and sat down separately.
"I wonder what the Master wants to discuss with me."
Liu Zhe stroked his long beard and asked with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your careful guidance over the past year. My children have made great progress. I would like to ask Mr. Liu, among these children, who is most suitable to take over the family affairs? Who is most suitable for business?"
This was Chen Daoxuan's concern.
As his own children increased, his own strength would also become stronger, and he couldn't personally handle everything.
The family's affairs were complicated, and although Lin Heng, the steward, was extremely competent, he was ultimately an ordinary person and couldn't be in two places at once. It was still necessary to arrange for several children to take over the affairs.
"In my opinion, all of the Master's children are talented and intelligent. If I were to choose the most outstanding ones, it would be Chen Qingyang and Chen Siling. Although Qingyang is only seven years old, he is calm and mature, no less than an adult. He understands many books and is very suitable for managing the family affairs."
"Siling is only six years old, but she is clever and resourceful. She is very suitable for business."
"However... there is one thing that the Master may have overlooked. The children are currently in the enlightenment stage, which is crucial. If the resources are insufficient, their foundation may not be solid."
Over the past year, Chen Daoxuan had shown great respect for Liu Zhe, and Liu Zhe reciprocated the same.
"You are right, Mr. Liu."
Chen Daoxuan furrowed his brows slightly. Although the Chen family had already gained control of Qingyang County, it was only one county and the resources were too scarce to support the cultivation of so many children.
That's right!
Chen Daoxuan's eyes suddenly lit up. When he left the sect, the elders had promised that as long as the children born with spiritual roots, they could go to the sect to receive rewards. With this, the children would have resources for their enlightenment.
If their spiritual roots were good enough, they could also join the sect, and he wouldn't have to worry about their future resources anymore!
Once they completed their studies, they could return to the Chen family to manage the business.
Killing two birds with one stone.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu."
With this in mind, Chen Daoxuan got up and found Bai Ling'er.
"Husband, three years ago, the sect sent a message asking you to go back when you have time."
Bai Ling'er sat next to Chen Daoxuan and smiled gently, "Or is it that my husband is intoxicated by the fragrance of beautiful women every day and has forgotten about this?"
"Madam is so beautiful and charming, I can't help but be intoxicated," Chen Daoxuan joked, then made up his mind, "I will take them back to the sect now."
Half a day later.
A huge carriage pulled by eight Tianlin steeds slowly left the Chen residence. These Tianlin steeds were three times larger than ordinary horses, with scales on their surface and a steady speed that created a breeze under their feet.
It is said that there is a trace of a divine beast, the Qilin bloodline, in the Tianlin steeds.
The carriage itself was made of top-quality sandalwood, resembling a small palace with all the necessary facilities inside. Even if nine children squeezed in, it didn't feel crowded at all.
Seven days later, the carriage stopped steadily at the entrance of the sect.
When Chen Daoxuan and Bai Ling'er arrived in Qingyang County a month ago, it took them a month to travel. Now, it only took seven days, a world of difference.
Chen Daoxuan got off the carriage and took the nine children up the mountain. Although he had left the sect for nearly five years, the sect remained unchanged. Green mountains, clear waters, towering into the clouds, ethereal immortal clouds, and a chorus of cranes.
"Brother Chen, it's been a long time. Are these your children?"
"I heard that Brother Chen married several beautiful wives during his time in the mortal world. It's truly enviable."
On the way, many disciples who knew Chen Daoxuan greeted him, as well as some new disciples who were curious about Chen Daoxuan bringing so many children.
Before long, Chen Daoxuan arrived at the Monster Slaying Palace.
Today, there were many people in the Monster Slaying Palace, with many disciples lining up. Chen Daoxuan took a closer look and instantly understood.
It turned out that these past few days were the outer sect trials. Those who passed would be able to join the inner sect, and these people were here to sign up.
Once they entered the inner sect, they would become inner sect disciples with far more resources than the outer sect.
These disciples saw Chen Daoxuan with so many children and couldn't help but look at him with curiosity.
Chen Daoxuan didn't pay attention to them and went straight to the white-haired old man who was cultivating his spirit with closed eyes. He respectfully said, "Elder, I am Chen Daoxuan, here to receive cultivation resources."
"Oh?"
The elder slowly opened his eyes, took a glance at Chen Daoxuan, and then his gaze fell on the children behind him. He was instantly stunned, "Are these all your children? Do they all have spiritual roots?"
"Yes," Chen Daoxuan replied.
As soon as these words came out, not only the elder, but everyone present was also stunned.
"How...how does he have so many children with spiritual roots?"
"How many concubines did he marry?"
"Isn't it said that the higher the cultivation level, the lower the chance of having children? These are just the ones with spiritual roots, how many without spiritual roots are there?"
"I guess his strength must not be strong. Otherwise, how could he have so many children in just a few years?"
"That's true. I heard that he has been cultivating for eighty years and is still in the Body Refining stage. I'm afraid he knows that his lifespan is about to end, so he indulges in worldly beauty."
The crowd discussed one after another.
Chen Daoxuan heard their comments but ignored them, just looking at the elder in front of him.
The elder frowned slightly and thought to himself.
If it were just one or two children, giving them some resources wouldn't be a big deal. But with a total of nine children, it was no small number.
Chen Daoxuan's cultivation level was probably not high, and the spiritual roots of the children he had were probably very limited, perhaps even inferior spiritual roots that could barely enter the outer sect.
Even if resources were given, it would be a waste.
"Chen Daoxuan, I will give you the reward, but there are too many. I need to inform the sect master and let the sect master decide," the elder pondered for a few seconds and said slowly.
"Then I will trouble the elder," Chen Daoxuan naturally understood what the elder was thinking, so he didn't say much, just glanced at the registration place for the outer sect trials next to him and smiled faintly, "Elder, although I have left the sect and established my own sect, I am still a member of the sect. I believe I have the qualifications to participate in the outer sect trials, right?"
