Chapter 6: Seven Daughters
After giving birth to four daughters in a row, Wang Qiuyu indeed had some health problems.
For more than a year that followed, although Wang Qiuyu repeatedly requested to have more children, Li Xiaojun firmly refused each time.
Wang Qiuyu had one obsession: she wanted to give Li Xiaojun a son.
However, it was strange that all four of her children were girls.
Including the two daughters from his late wife, Li Xiaojun now had six daughters.
Li Xiaojun found it very odd that all his children were girls.
He suspected the system was playing tricks on him.
But when he tried to ask the system about it, it completely ignored him.
Time passed swiftly, and soon over six months had gone by.
In June of the year 390 of the Great Scene Dynasty, it was once again the day for the Immortal Sect to recruit new disciples.
To Li Xiaojun’s surprise, the Immortal Master testing spirit roots from Honghe Town this year was his daughter, Li Yuting.
“Are you my dad?”
The 14-year-old girl saw Li Xiaojun, who looked like he was only in his twenties, and was extremely shocked.
“Ting Ting, it’s been eight years, and you’ve grown so much!”
Li Xiaojun gazed at his eldest daughter with a sense of nostalgia.
Hearing Li Xiaojun’s voice, Li Yuting confirmed that the young man before her was indeed her father.
“Dad!”
Li Yuting’s eyes immediately turned red.
“Ting Ting!”
The father and daughter embraced each other with excitement.
“Ting Ting, let me introduce you. This is Wang Qiuyu, you can call her Aunt Wang.” After calming down, Li Xiaojun introduced his wife, Wang Qiuyu, to his daughter Li Yuting!
He did not ask Li Yuting to call Wang Qiuyu mother, as there was no blood relation between them.
“Aunt Wang!”
Li Yuting called out to Wang Qiuyu.
“Hello! Ting Ting.”
Wang Qiuyu felt a bit shy after meeting Li Yuting.
Although Li Yuting was Li Xiaojun’s daughter, her current identity was that of a noble Immortal Master.
Moreover, the Immortal Masters sent by Biyun Xianzong to conduct spirit root testing were at least high-level Immortal Masters in the Foundation Establishment stage.
“Ting Ting, this is your third younger sister, Li Yuxin; this is your fourth younger sister, Li Yuqing; this is your fifth younger sister, Li Yutong; and this is your sixth younger sister, Li Yucen…”
Next, Li Xiaojun introduced several of his daughters to his eldest daughter.
After hearing the introductions, Li Yuting looked at Li Xiaojun with a strange expression, as if to say: Why are they all younger sisters?
Li Yuting stayed at home for a few days and then returned to the Immortal Gate.
She was back because she had reached the Foundation Establishment stage, and the Immortal Sect specially granted her a few days off to visit her family.
During this visit, Li Yuting brought Li Xiaojun five hundred spirit stones. In addition, she also brought a common cultivation technique she found at the market.
The techniques from Biyun Xianzong could not be shared, so Li Yuting could only buy a regular one from the market.
She bought the cultivation technique because she learned from Li Xiaojun’s letter that Wang Qiuyu had inferior mixed spirit roots, so this was a special gift for her stepmother.
As for the five hundred spirit stones, half of them were a gift from Li Yuting to Wang Qiuyu for her cultivation.
Although Wang Qiuyu’s spirit roots were not good, being able to cultivate would still be very beneficial for her health.
If she could reach the first layer of Qi Refinement, living a long life without illness would not be a problem.
The cultivation technique Li Yuting gave to Wang Qiuyu was called the Changchun Method. Li Xiaojun also wanted to try cultivating it, but unfortunately, he had no spirit roots and could not cultivate at all.
Li Xiaojun felt helpless about this situation.
However, thinking that he only needed spirit stones to achieve longevity, he felt relieved.
What do others seek in cultivation? Isn’t it just for longevity?
He could achieve longevity without cultivating, isn’t that great?
Although he didn’t have powerful combat abilities without cultivation, he had excellent daughters.
Now his eldest daughter was 14 years old and had reached the Foundation Establishment stage; who knew what realm she might reach in the future?
As long as his daughter was strong, no one would dare to hurt him, right?
After all, he was just an ordinary person and wouldn’t harm anyone’s interests.
After Li Yuting left, Li Xiaojun absorbed the spirit stones his daughter had brought.
Then, Li Xiaojun’s lifespan surpassed six hundred years.
[System Notification: Detected target as a low-level spirit root user. 1. Option to consume 10 years of lifespan to enhance the offspring. 2. Option to consume 50 years of lifespan to enhance the offspring.]
Just after Li Yuting left, Li Xiaojun couldn’t withstand Wang Qiuyu’s persistent pleas and finally agreed to have another child.
“I choose option 2.”
With ample lifespan, Li Xiaojun naturally wouldn’t mistreat his own child.
Ten months later.
On April 24, 391, Li Xiaojun’s seventh daughter was born.
Seeing that it was another daughter, Wang Qiuyu was not too upset this time.
After so many disappointments, she had gotten somewhat used to it.
The seventh daughter was born in the morning, so Li Xiaojun named her Li Yuchen.
Time quickly arrived at the year 391 of the Great Scene Dynasty in June.
This year, Li Xiaojun’s third daughter, Li Yuxin, turned six years old. According to the rules, she had to participate in the spirit root testing this year.
Li Yuxin was a child born from Li Xiaojun consuming fifty years of lifespan, and no one knew what her talent would be.
On the sixth of June, early in the morning, as the mother, Wang Qiuyu got up to prepare food for the children.
Today was a special day, so Wang Qiuyu gave the servants a day off and had to cook by herself.
As Wang Qiuyu went to the kitchen to cook, Li Xiaojun began dressing his daughters.
By eight in the morning, after the family finished their meal, Li Xiaojun carried one daughter on his back, held another in his arms, and took the hand of another.
Wang Qiuyu also carried one child on her back and held another by the hand, and the close-knit family group set off towards the town square.
When they arrived at the center of the square, many people were already waiting.
“Mr. Li!”
“Hello, Mr. Li!”
After Li Xiaojun’s arrival, the townspeople greeted him warmly.
Time quickly passed and soon it was ten o’clock in the morning.
Around ten thirty, amidst the eager gazes of everyone, a flying boat finally arrived above the town square.
At this time, the town had already organized the children into lines.
Once the Immortal Masters arrived, they immediately began the spirit root testing for the children.
“No spirit roots, next!”
“No spirit roots…”
Time passed slowly.
Before long, a large number of children were tested, and to everyone’s disappointment, not a single spirit root had been found.
Soon, it was Li Xiaojun’s third daughter, Li Yuxin’s turn to be tested.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Li Yuxin placed her delicate little hand on the crystal ball.
As the Immortal Master infused the spell, the next moment, the crystal ball erupted with dazzling golden light.
“Oh my! Top-grade spirit roots.”
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
“Once again, it’s Mr. Li’s daughter, and once again it’s top-grade spirit roots.”
“Oh my!”
“All of Mr. Li’s daughters have top-grade spirit roots.”
When they saw Li Yuxin’s spirit root talent, everyone in Honghe Town was astonished.
No one expected that Li Xiaojun’s daughter would again have top-grade spirit roots.
If they counted Li Yuting and Li Yufei as well, then Li Xiaojun had three daughters with top-grade spirit roots.
Seeing this scene, the spirit root testing Immortal Masters were also taken aback.
They were shocked not because Li Yuxin showed top-grade spirit roots.
Only ordinary people who didn’t understand the testing process would think Li Yuxin had top-grade spirit roots.
As disciples of the Immortal Sect, they knew that the initial burst of dazzling light meant the spirit roots were better than just top-grade.
This testing crystal could only detect top-grade spirit roots, and a talent that was better than top-grade would definitely create an explosion of bright light right from the start.
Thus, in their eyes, Li Yuxin was not a top-grade spirit root user, but rather possessed a talent that was better than top-grade spirit roots.
Perhaps it was earth spirit roots, or even heavenly spirit roots, which were superior to earth spirit roots.
