26: The naughty child deserves to be punished

Though the masked woman’s eyes were as brilliant as stars, they seemed to hold an unresolvable sorrow.

Coupled with her slightly furrowed brows, it made people instinctively feel a desire to protect her.

“Sigh! Forget it, it’s all up to you!”

“Young Miss, why are you always so downcast? Are you still thinking about those troubles?”

“No, not at all! Oh, right, why did you come looking for me?”

“Oh my! I almost forgot about the main business!” Qing Xuan exclaimed, finally remembering there was something important to do, and quickly said, “Young Miss, I met a very interesting person.”

“Who? Tell me.”

Xiao Qing smiled and said, “A person selling Medicinal Pills and weapons came to our shop.”

“Do you know? The Medicinal Pills and weapons he sells are all of supreme quality. Isn’t that strange? Isn’t it very interesting?”

“What’s so special about that? What did you say? All of supreme quality? What grade?”

“First Grade supreme quality!”

“And although those weapons are of First Grade quality, their power is no less than a Second Grade Low Grade Spiritual Artifact!”

Disappointment flickered in the masked woman’s eyes, and she calmly said, “It’s only First Grade, so there’s nothing to it!”

“Young Miss, that person is very young, and his Cultivation is not high. I even suspect that those Medicinal Pills and weapons are all from his hand!”

A bright light flashed in the masked woman’s eyes, and she asked with great anticipation, “What is his Cultivation Realm?”

“He should only be in the Foundation Establishment Realm!”

The masked woman fell silent, thought for a moment, and said, “Since that’s the case, then let’s form a good relationship with him!”

“You acquire his weapons at the price of a Second Grade Low Grade, and all the Materials he buys will be discounted by twenty percent.”

Xiao Qing nodded earnestly and said, “Alright, Young Miss, I’ll go do it now.”

Before Xiao Qing could leave, the masked woman said again, “Wait!”

Xiao Qing asked confusedly, “Young Miss, do you have any other instructions?”

“Here! Give him this too, and tell him that in the future, if he wants to sell or buy anything, he can always come to the Xuantian Business Alliance!”

“Ah! Young Miss, are you serious?”

“This is a VIP card! Anyone who buys something at the Xuantian Business Alliance can get a fifty percent discount?”

“Yes! Give it to him.”

Xiao Qing reluctantly took a black card full of inscriptions and left the ninth floor sullenly.

Xiao Qing returned to the lounge on the first floor. At this moment, the Shopkeeper was settling the bill with Li Daoxuan.

“Wait!” Xiao Qing still decided to obediently follow the Young Miss’s instructions.

Xiao Qing first approached the Shopkeeper and whispered a few words, then took out the black card and handed it to Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan asked confusedly, “What is this?”

“This is our Xuantian Business Alliance’s VIP card. Anyone who…”

Li Daoxuan said in surprise, “There’s such a good thing?”

“Also, all the Spiritual Artifacts you brought will be purchased at the price of Second Grade Spiritual Artifacts. In the future, if you want to sell anything, you must prioritize our Xuantian Business Alliance.”

“Absolutely no problem! I will definitely come to you if I sell anything in the future!”

Surprise! It was truly a surprise!

Because of this, Li Daoxuan purchased a large batch of supplies again, and then happily left.

After leaving the Heavenly Dao Business Alliance building, Li Daoxuan walked aimlessly through Luo City, still guessing the purpose of the person behind the Xuantian Business Alliance.

He thought for a long time but couldn’t come up with a reason, so he stopped thinking about it.

In fact, Li Daoxuan still didn’t know how great his own value was.

Xuantian Business Alliance, ninth floor. After receiving Li Daoxuan, Qing Xuan was no longer in the mood to receive guests and ran back again.

“Young Miss, I really don’t understand, why are you doing this?”

The masked woman looked at the conflicted Qing Xuan, her troubled mood eased a bit, and she shook her head, saying, “You don’t understand!”

Li Daoxuan didn’t stay in Luo City for too long. After buying his things, he left Luo City.

As soon as he returned to the Li Family in Tianshui City, Qing Xuan knew, and Qing Xuan and Zi Ling came out to welcome him together.

“Senior Brother, why did you come back so quickly? Was the journey smooth?”

Li Daoxuan stepped forward and gave them both a big hug, smiling, “It was very smooth, and I also prepared a lot of Cultivation resources for you two this time.”

“Especially Zi Ling, who has just embarked on the path of Cultivation and needs a lot of resources.”

Zi Ling said emotionally, “Thank you, Husband, I will definitely Cultivate diligently. Oh, right, Husband, I have already reached the Late Stage of the Qi Gathering Realm.”

“Oh my! That’s impressive!” Only then did Li Daoxuan realize that Zi Ling had already reached the Late Stage of Qi Refining. This speed was simply too fast. Li Daoxuan felt like crying just watching it.

Li Daoxuan pulled out a large pile of things and gave them all to Zi Ling. Looking at the Medicinal Pills, Spirit Stones, and Spiritual Artifacts, Zi Ling couldn’t help but get teary-eyed again, saying emotionally, “Husband, you are so good!”

Li Daoxuan didn’t give much to Qing Xuan, mainly because her Realm was too high, and things suitable for her were too expensive.

Li Daoxuan’s life became peaceful again. He often stayed at home with his children, and when he had nothing to do, he practiced Artifact Refining, Alchemy, and studied Formations.

However, Artifact Refining, Alchemy, and Formations had all entered a Bottleneck.

Cultivating was impossible, so at night, he would go to Qing Xuan’s room to Cultivate together.

This morning, Qing Xuan pouted her small mouth and said angrily, “Senior Brother, I… I’m pregnant again! What should I do?”

“What? Are you saying you…”

“Mm-hmm!”

Li Daoxuan, Zi Ling, and Xiao Man and Xiao Yu who were standing nearby, all broke into smiles. The Li Family was about to welcome new members; this was a good thing!

In the blink of an eye, several months passed again.

At this point, Li Daoxuan truly had nothing to do. The Materials Li Daoxuan had prepared were already used up, but Li Daoxuan had not gone to Luo City to purchase more.

Because Zi Ling was about to give birth, and Qing Xuan was also pregnant, Li Daoxuan was worried and hadn’t dared to leave.

However, the more he anticipated, the more disappointed he became.

With the delivery imminent, the little one seemed to be playing a joke on its parents, simply refusing to come out.

Li Daoxuan could only take care of Zi Ling every day.

Li Daoxuan even secretly wondered if he would give birth to a monster, like Nezha, who was pregnant for more than three years before being born.

Since the baby wouldn’t come out, Li Daoxuan could only focus his energy on his other children. He had bought some Spiritual Liquid suitable for children from Luo City last time, so Li Daoxuan began to Cultivate his children from a young age.

As for whether they would be sent to the Heavenly Dao Sect in the future, or cultivated using Family resources, that would depend on their own choices.

Calculating the time, Zi Ling had long passed her due date, which made her very uneasy.

However, Li Daoxuan was familiar with this kind of thing; our Old Li was a storyteller.

So, the Xuanhuan version of Nezha’s birth came about. Li Daoxuan vividly narrated the story of Nezha, and also said that the longer the pregnancy, the higher the Aptitude of the child born, which made Zi Ling overjoyed.

Qing Xuan, however, said, “Senior Brother, what if Zi Ling Sister also gives birth to a mischievous child like Nezha?”

Zi Ling: “…”

“Beat him!”

“Mischievous children just need a good lesson!”

“Hahahaha…”
