Zhou Zhuqing immediately nodded, "Yes, you're right, that's your child!"

"Mm." Lin Chen nodded, looking at Zhou Zhuqing. "Are you okay with all the back and forth? Are your wounds alright? Did they reopen?"

Zhou Zhuqing suddenly leaned closer to him, blinked her eyes, and smiled. "It was fine originally, but now that you've asked, I suddenly feel a bit of pain. How about you help me check if the wound has reopened?"

"Don't try to tempt me, I have no self-control." Lin Chen spoke honestly.

Ever since they returned from the border between gods and demons, there had been occasional hints of ambiguity between them. Lin Chen naturally knew what that meant.

However, he refrained from making any moves due to her wounds.

But Zhou Zhuqing felt that the timing was about right. She leaned in, smiled, and even sat directly on Lin Chen's lap. "Is that so? You have no self-control? Why do I feel like you're restraining yourself?"

"Zhou Zhuqing, that's enough." Lin Chen's gaze darkened.

He wasn't made of wood. Wouldn't all this rubbing and teasing eventually ignite a fire?

Zhou Zhuqing wrapped her hands around his neck. "Is it enough? Do you think it's enough?"

Before Lin Chen could say anything else, she lowered her head and fiercely kissed his lips!

At this point, what was there for Lin Chen to hesitate about?

He immediately regained the initiative, charging forward, ravaging passionately...

Late at night.

After fooling around for most of the day, the two of them cuddled on the bed. Zhou Zhuqing lazily leaned against Lin Chen's chest. "Am I going to live in your house from now on?"

"If you're willing, of course you can. If you're not willing, it's up to you." Lin Chen gently touched her cheek and smiled tenderly.

Just after their passionate encounter, both of them were now most attached to each other.

Zhou Zhuqing turned around and lay on his chest, looking at him curiously. "Why are you different from the men I've met before?"

"That's because you've met few men. You'll know in the future that they're all the same." Lin Chen chuckled and kissed her. "You're originally the young miss of the Zhou family. Should you give up your freedom and brilliance because of me? No, I can't bear to see you like that. I hope you can still be the shining young miss of the Zhou family, just like before."

Zhou Zhuqing had never heard such words before.

The reason she had been diligently cultivating and unwilling to find a man was largely because even in the immortal sect, they couldn't escape conventions.

They naturally believed that cultivation was something men should do, and even their cultivation level should be higher than women's.

But Lin Chen was different from those men, very different. It seemed like he inherently respected women.

She couldn't understand. "Do you really think that way?"

"Yes." Lin Chen nodded, pressing her head down. "Go to sleep."

Zhou Zhuqing nestled in his arms, feeling a wave of shyness. But both of them were exhausted, and at this point, they could do nothing but sleep.

The next day, early morning.

The moment Zhou Zhuqing opened her eyes, she felt countless spiritual energy rushing into her dantian, and her vision became clear.

She immediately put on her clothes and sat up. Sure enough, her True Qi was vibrating, directly breaking through the Foundation Building stage and entering the early stage of Gold Core.

She widened her eyes in disbelief, repeatedly testing her cultivation level to confirm that she had indeed broken through the bottleneck. She was filled with excitement.

Although I knew before that spiritual cultivation can accelerate progress, I never expected the effect to be this good!

Could it be because the duration of spiritual cultivation is longer?

Thinking about the absurdity and shyness of yesterday.

There was no trace of Lin Chen in the room, but the hot breakfast was still on the table.

Zhou Zhuqing sat down, took a bite, and saw the note that Lin Chen left for her: "Finish eating and come find me in Nanyuan."

A wave of shyness and sweetness filled her heart. She finished everything on the table.

Nanyuan.

Zhou Yuan has been living here with the child during this time.

At first, Medicine Master Liang was somewhat resistant to the child, but later found that this little girl was different from ordinary children. She rarely cried and was very well-behaved when he threw her into the medicinal field and played by herself all day.

"No wonder you value this child so much. Her talent is indeed extraordinary," Medicine Master Liang smiled and looked at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen looked at his precious daughter rolling in the medicinal field and smiled, "I have nearly twenty children, but only one daughter. Even if she only had ordinary human talent, I would still cherish her."

Upon hearing this, Medicine Master Liang nodded, "The little disciple you gave me is really exceptional. She has already memorized all the medicinal materials in just over ten days. She's much better than you."

"You can praise her without belittling me," Lin Chen said discontentedly.

But Medicine Master Liang said confidently, "If we don't compare, how can we highlight her excellence? You are indeed lacking!"

"How am I lacking?" Lin Chen snorted, "I can remember all those medicinal materials you have, I just don't know how to use them."

Thanks to the blessing of dual elemental roots, Lin Chen had already reached the stage of photographic memory.

"Do the Eternal Immortal Sect know about your plan to establish your own sect?" Medicine Master Liang asked curiously.

Lin Chen took a sip of herbal tea, shrugged, and said casually, "I am not a member of the Eternal Immortal Sect, nor do I have any relationship with them after leaving the mountain. I will do whatever I want and tell them what to do."

Although he said that, it couldn't be simply implemented like that.

Medicine Master Liang seemed to have thought of something and smiled, "I advise you to think twice before acting. These prestigious sects stand in the sunlight one by one. When they kill you, you won't even see the knife."

This statement made a lot of sense.

Lin Chen knew that in this world, there was no absolute righteous or demonic path. Everything depended on people's hearts.

"You have never belonged to any immortal sect. Why? Have you been injured?" Lin Chen looked at Medicine Master Liang curiously.

Medicine Master Liang didn't continue this topic and said in a low voice, "I heard that the demon realm has been chaotic recently. It seems that their Demon Lord has gone missing."

"What?" Lin Chen cried out in amusement, "How could the Demon Lord go missing?"

"You don't know. Although that little girl has high cultivation and a fierce personality, she is actually a glutton. In the demon realm, there is nothing delicious, so she always sneaks out to steal food," Medicine Master Liang blinked at Lin Chen. "You became famous after killing a ninth-grade demon beast. If you could capture the Demon Lord..."

"Are you trying to kill me?" Lin Chen rolled his eyes directly. "Isn't that a hot potato? If I encounter her, I won't even have time to hide. Am I crazy to approach her?"

"Don't mention me. Even if the major sects join forces, they wouldn't dare to kill the Demon Lord at will! Besides, you are already quite old. Why are you still so curious?" Lin Chen showed a hint of disdain.

He had known that he would react like this.

Medicine Master Liang snorted, "Forget it, forget it. Let's pretend I didn't say anything."

"I didn't hear anything in the first place." Lin Chen shrugged casually, but his eyes changed, becoming more vigilant.
