Chapter 247: Chapter 242 I Have a Son! (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)

Looking at the two kneeling men, Lu Xuanji felt a bit stunned and couldn’t help but ask, “Are they my sons?”

“Of course, they are your offspring!”

Ye Wanyi said.

“Wait a minute, my head is a bit confused!” Lu Xuanji closed his eyes to clear his mind, and after about five breaths, he opened his eyes with a trace of uneasiness and restlessness, and said, “I just went into seclusion for thirty years, how come I have sons now?”

“Just before you went into seclusion, we were intimate once, and at that time I intended to have your offspring. Three months later, I was indeed pregnant.”

“After about a three-year pregnancy, they were born, a pair of twins who gradually grew up!”

“They are twins, but they look different and have different personalities. The elder is lively, the younger is steady. The elder is named Lu Xian, and the younger is Lu Fan.”

“Wanyi, why are you so impulsive! Your aptitude was already relatively poor, even if you have condensed an Ice Spirit Root, the aptitude is not that good. Bearing offspring for me would harm your essence, making forming a Golden Core even harder!”

Lu Xuanji did not look at the two sons on the ground but instead stepped forward to hold Ye Wanyi’s hand and said softly.

“I originally agreed that when I reached the Golden Core stage, I would then have offspring. Why be so rash!”

Ye Wanyi laughed and said: “Originally I planned to have offspring during the Foundation Establishment Stage, but it got delayed. Now that I’m at the Purple Mansion, it’s the best time, and I don’t want to wait any longer! Family cultivating immortality, family cultivating immortality, husband doesn’t even have a son, how could we talk about family cultivating immortality!”

“Husband often encourages clan cultivators to marry more Dao companions, take more concubines, and have more offspring. But you only have me, not even a concubine, let alone a son. Husband, that’s a typical double standard, words don’t match actions!”

Lu Xuanji was speechless.

Looking at the two sons on the ground, they were trembling slightly.

To this father, they felt a sense of strangeness, a sense of awe, but not a sense of closeness.

“Stand up!”

Lu Xuanji said.

The two then stood up.

Looking at the two grown sons, Lu Xuanji felt like he was in a dream; he just went out once, just thirty years, and upon returning home, he had two sons.

The sons have grown up, they’re over twenty years old, ready to marry and have children.

“Lu Xian, Lu Fan, call me father!”

“Father!”

“Call me father again!”

“Father!”

After calling a few times, Lu Xuanji said, “Remember to come to the Cave Mansion tonight, and I’ll give you some guidance. As for now, I need to spend some time with your mother and discuss a few things!”

After instructing them for a while, he bid farewell to the two sons and headed to the Cave Mansion.

…

Reunion is sweeter than newlywed.

After thirty years of separation, it was indulgent joy.

This kind of happiness makes saying ‘I love you’ or other sweet words redundant; only merging together is perfect reality.

After a long time, they stopped.

Lu Xuanji said, “Wanyi, you were impulsive!”

“I know! I’m not as good as some people, so I need to bear offspring for you and live on in some people’s memories!” Ye Wanyi said, “Husband, I know you care for me, always wanting to enhance my cultivation and let me live forever, bringing me into Golden Core, even Nascent Soul!”

“But I know my own weight, I know my aptitude, I just didn’t want to be too much of a burden to my husband! It wasn’t until the late Purple Mansion stages that I realized the difficulty of forming a Golden Core, then I thought of leaving descendants for my husband!”

Touching Lu Xuanji’s face, Ye Wanyi spoke tenderly.

At the time of spirit root testing, being detected as an Ice Spirit Root, many cultivators would praise and rejoice because the Ice Spirit Root is a genius;

But reaching the Purple Mansion Realm, the Ice Spirit Root wasn’t anything special, very average, very ordinary.

Most of those who entered the Purple Mansion were either Dual Spirit Roots or Anomalous Spirit Roots, mere Ice Spirit Root was nothing.

However, in these years, her growth was rapid, reaching the Ninth-Layer of the Purple Mansion at just three hundred and fifty years old, surpassing many peers.

Yet all this came at a cost, continuously consuming Supreme Pure Yang Pills and also consuming Fourth Grade Spirit Cleansing Lotus, such treatment many Golden Core offspring didn’t receive.

As a price, Lu Xuanji delayed cultivation time, gave up many things, and cultivated more slowly, now only at the Seventh Layer of the Purple Mansion.

“Wanyi, here is a booklet explaining how to form a Golden Core, you have to remember it!”

Lu Xuanji thought of something, took out a booklet, and handed it over.

It described how to form a Golden Core.

“I understand!”

Ye Wanyi glanced at it roughly and set it aside.

“Husband, there is one good news and one bad news?”

“Then tell the good news first!”

Lu Xuanji pondered.

Ye Wanyi said, “Xian’Er has a Celestial Spirit Root!”

“Excellent, excellent, the eldest has a Celestial Spirit Root, it looks like my Lu Family’s fortune is turning, there’s a successor!” Lu Xuanji smiled joyfully.

For any clan, the birth of a Celestial Spirit Root assures at least one Golden Core.

Additionally, due to the Celestial Spirit Root, cultivation progresses quickly, allowing ample time to hone the foundation, with a probability of forming a Nascent Soul far exceeding ordinary cultivators.

“Yet there’s bad news, Fan’er is a Five Spirit Roots!” Ye Wanyi said, “They were born at the same time, now twenty-seven years old, Xian’Er is already at Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, and this is with me constantly suppressing to let him refine his foundation. But Fan’er is only at Qi Cultivation Second Layer.”

“They’re full brothers, but the difference in aptitude is vast, a gap as wide as heaven and earth!”

“In my plans, the focus is on nurturing Xian’Er, prioritizing him with resources, aiming to make him a Golden Core, even Nascent Soul; as for Fan’er, his aptitude is poor, not much value to cultivate, at most reaching Foundation Establishment, better to marry many and have children, continuing the family line!”

“Now, Fan’er already has three wives, all with Three Spirit Roots.”

Ye Wanyi spoke, laying out the arrangements for their two sons.

They were born in succession, same mother same womb, but due to different aptitudes, their future paths diverged greatly.

The strong go eastward conquering, guarding the family; the weak reproduce offspring, continuing the family line.

“This is not fair to the younger one!”

Lu Xuanji said, “Everyone named something Fan is a strong one, I don’t think our son is useless, what does Five Spirit Roots matter, I will still cultivate him into a Golden Core. Back then, with insufficient resources and shallow cultivation, I could only watch helplessly as my mother and father passed away.”

“But now, I’m wealthy, and I must defy fate for Fan’er, ensuring his entry into the Golden Core!”

“As for Fan’er, he must cultivate immortality… I don’t want to watch my son grow white-haired in a hundred years, and then see him pass away!”
