Chapter 5: Daughter, Still a Daughter
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, ten months had gone by.
After ten months, Wang Qiuyu successfully gave birth to a baby girl for Li Xiaojun.
The baby girl, born after consuming fifty years of lifespan, looked no different from any other child and appeared quite ordinary.
“Dear, I’m sorry. I will definitely give you a son next time.”
Seeing that she had given birth to a daughter, Wang Qiuyu felt a bit guilty.
“Fool, I actually prefer daughters over sons,” Li Xiaojun smiled and comforted his wife.
In this world, the mindset of valuing males over females was quite severe, but Li Xiaojun favored daughters instead.
With Li Xiaojun’s reassurance, Wang Qiuyu did not feel too guilty anymore.
After Li Xiaojun welcomed another daughter, soon countless people came to congratulate him.
A month later, Li Xiaojun named his daughter Li Yuxin.
Just one month after his daughter’s birth, it was now the year 385 of the Great Scene Dynasty, in June.
On the sixth day of June, when the Immortal Masters from Biyun Xianzong arrived, Li Xiaojun entrusted them to deliver two letters for his two daughters, along with some delicious food he had personally prepared.
What Li Xiaojun did not expect was that his two daughters also sent things back with their senior brothers and sisters from Biyun Xianzong.
It was still a wooden box!
Upon opening the wooden box, he found two letters and one hundred spirit stones inside.
Li Xiaojun first opened the letters.
He read both letters from his daughters, which mainly described their situation at the Immortal Gate.
Then, regarding the spirit stones, elder daughter Li Yuting originally intended to contribute one hundred spirit stones solely by herself. However, after the younger daughter learned about this, she insisted on contributing half.
As a result, this time, the sisters each contributed fifty spirit stones.
After reading the letters, Li Xiaojun felt speechless. Couldn’t they just each contribute one hundred spirit stones? Then he would have two hundred spirit stones!
However, he was already very happy to have one hundred spirit stones.
Quickly, Li Xiaojun had the system absorb them and convert them into energy points.
He then exchanged all these energy points for lifespan.
Under these circumstances, although the system did not display his lifespan, Li Xiaojun believed he could live at least over one hundred fifty years.
Yet soon, Li Xiaojun’s lifespan decreased by another fifty years.
Because, his wife Wang Qiuyun was pregnant again.
Time flew, and once again, ten months slipped by.
Ten months later, Wang Qiuyun gave birth to another daughter for Li Xiaojun.
“Dear, I’m sorry! I…”
“Fool, I told you, I like daughters the most…”
After having another daughter, Li Xiaojun comforted Wang Qiuyu once again.
Li Xiaojun did not think there was anything wrong with having daughters.
However, Wang Qiuyu, who had been brainwashed by the mindset of valuing males over females since childhood, felt very guilty towards Li Xiaojun.
“It’s okay, we still have plenty of time. We can have a son later,” he reassured her.
“Mm!” Wang Qiuyu nodded obediently.
For their second daughter, Li Xiaojun chose the name Li Yuqing.
……
Soon, time moved to June of the year 386 of the Great Scene Dynasty.
On this day, Li Xiaojun again asked the Immortal Masters to send letters to his two daughters and received items from his daughters in return.
There were two letters and one hundred spirit stones.
In the letters, after learning that Li Xiaojun had married another wife, the two daughters did not have a strong reaction.
They understood that after cultivating, it would be difficult for them to honor their father, so they were also understanding about him finding a new wife.
In the letters, the two daughters asked if his health had improved after absorbing the spirit stones.
Li Xiaojun had looked like he was in his fifties when he was actually in his twenties, which made the two children very distressed.
Now that they learned the spirit stones could heal their father’s illness, they were more than willing to help him.
The one hundred spirit stones were once again converted into one hundred years of lifespan by Li Xiaojun.
After Li Yuqing was born, Li Xiaojun did not sleep with Wang Qiuyu for the next six months.
The reason behind this was that he hoped Wang Qiuyu could take good care of herself!
However, after six months, Li Xiaojun ended up having relations with Wang Qiuyu.
Wang Qiuyu was too clingy; she was eager to give Li Xiaojun a son. After Li Xiaojun refused to sleep with her, she thought he no longer liked her.
Although Li Xiaojun explained repeatedly, Wang Qiuyu did not believe him.
This situation continued for six months.
[System Notification: Detected that the target has low-level spirit roots.
1. You can choose to consume ten years of lifespan to enhance the offspring.
2. You can choose to consume fifty years of lifespan to enhance the offspring.]
Receiving the System Notification, Li Xiaojun finally reacted.
“I choose 2.”
Li Xiaojun reluctantly made his choice.
Now, he had plenty of lifespan, so he did not want to shortchange the next generation.
Quickly, Li Xiaojun’s lifespan decreased by another fifty years.
However, fortunately, he still had a lifespan of at least one hundred fifty years, so even with the loss of fifty years, he had more than a hundred years left, which did not change his appearance much.
A few months later, it was June of the year 387 of the Great Scene Dynasty.
His daughters Li Yuting and Li Yufei sent one hundred spirit stones to Li Xiaojun again.
This made Li Xiaojun’s lifespan exceed two hundred years.
After a few more months, Wang Qiuyu gave birth to another daughter for Li Xiaojun.
Upon learning that it was another daughter, Wang Qiuyu nearly broke down.
Fortunately, after Li Xiaojun continuously comforted her and showed that he preferred daughters more, Wang Qiuyu calmed down.
“Dear, for the next year, you need to take care of your health. We can’t have any more children for a year; your health is the most important…”
“Aren’t you the one who wants a son? Maybe it’s because your body hasn’t recovered. After a year of resting and taking care of yourself, we can try for a son then…”
After giving birth to their third daughter, Li Xiaojun earnestly persuaded Wang Qiuyu.
After Li Xiaojun’s constant persuasion, Wang Qiuyu believed him and decided to spend a year taking care of her health.
Li Xiaojun named their third daughter Li Yutong.
For the next year, Li Xiaojun and Wang Qiuyu indeed did not have any more children.
During this year, their elder daughter Li Yuxin turned three, and their second daughter Li Yuqing was over two years old.
So during the year, Li Xiaojun focused on teaching his daughters to read.
By November of the year 388 of the Great Scene Dynasty, Wang Qiuyu forced Li Xiaojun to have another child.
After abstaining for more than a year, during the following year, Li Xiaojun experienced long-lasting happiness.
Ten months later, in September of the year 389 of the Great Scene Dynasty, Wang Qiuyu gave birth to another daughter for Li Xiaojun.
This time, it completely broke Wang Qiuyu down.
So for the next half month, Li Xiaojun did nothing but comfort his wife and instill the idea of gender equality in her.
In 388 and 389, his two daughters at the Immortal Sect again sent a total of two hundred spirit stones to Li Xiaojun, allowing his lifespan to surpass three hundred fifty years.
Mainly because Li Xiaojun had consumed fifty years of lifespan; otherwise, he would have surpassed four hundred years.
Half a month later, Li Xiaojun named his youngest daughter Li Yucen.
