In the room, the two locked eyes, each trying to see through the other.
Qin Zhengyang nodded helplessly, "Indeed, after verification, a woman with a low-grade spirit root can give birth to a supreme-grade spirit root, and a woman with a mid-grade spirit root can give birth to an earth spirit root. According to Qin Changqing, the higher the woman's aptitude, the more spiritual qi she can endure, thus nurturing a better quality immortal seedling."
Lin Xiuwen's eyes immediately sparkled with brilliance, and he exclaimed with joy, "If that's the case, if Qin Changqing were to pair with a woman with a high-grade spirit root, wouldn't they be able to produce a once-in-a-millennium... heaven spirit root!"
A heaven spirit root, something said to exist only in the top ten sects, and even then, it's a rare gem, all of whom are the pride of their sect.
Qin Changqing sighed, "It's just a pity that our Qin Family doesn't have any women with high-grade spirit roots... I heard that the Lin Family once had an extraordinary female prodigy."
Lin Xiuwen's expression shifted, "Are you referring to Yuxia?"
Due to her outstanding aptitude, Lin Yuxia had long been accepted into the Taiqing Sect, one of the top ten sects, and had even been taken as a disciple by an elder. Her future was bright, and she was the hope of the Lin Family.
Qin Zhengyang nodded, "Brother Lin, I know Yuxia has a promising future, but we're talking about a heaven spirit root here. Wouldn't you want to give it a try..."
Yes, a heaven spirit root... Lin Xiuwen was deeply tempted.
A heaven spirit root!
No elder's disciple or sect leader's disciple could stand in the way.
He said it!
...
Returning to the Lin Family, Lin Xiuwen immediately sent someone to the Taiqing Sect to summon Lin Yuxia back, citing an important family matter that required her immediate return.
However, returning from the sect wouldn't be quick!
It couldn't be rushed; the message was sent, and the Lin Family could only wait.
"Patriarch, an earth spirit root is also an exceptional aptitude seen once in a century. Why don't we first send a woman with a mid-grade spirit root over?"
An elder suggested.
"Ah!" Lin Xiuwen sighed, feeling a bit troubled, "Do you think I haven't thought of that? But the only woman in the family with a mid-grade spirit root is Xinyao, and she's already married, so it's definitely not possible."
The elder quickly said, "That might not be the case, Patriarch. The couple hasn't had any offspring for years. If they could have a child with an earth spirit root, they probably wouldn't refuse. This is also for the future of the family, and besides, we're just borrowing her, not asking Xinyao to marry over."
The value of an earth spirit root was enough for them to sacrifice some things.
Lin Xiuwen pondered for a long time before nodding, "Go and discuss it with the couple."
"Yes!" The elder left with a smile.
...
In a few days, Lin Xinyao was sent to the Qin Family estate. This well-known immortal seedling from the Lin Family was recognized immediately. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
"Patriarch, isn't Lin Xinyao already married? Why would the Lin Family send her over?"
Qin Zhengyang looked at the voluptuous and charming Lin Xinyao below, his expression twitching slightly, understanding the Lin Family's intentions. They couldn't resist the allure of an earth spirit root!
He instinctively wanted to refuse, but then thought of his own family member, Qin Rongrong, who was in a similar situation, and sighed, waving his hand, "Forget it, send her to Qin Changqing. That kid's really getting lucky."
Qin Changqing, who had seen many women, wasn't told who she was by the Qin Family, only that he had a task. But at first glance at Lin Xinyao, he noticed the similar aura to Qin Rongrong, with her ample curves and seductive posture, even surpassing Qin Rongrong.
Things were getting crazier!
Qin Changqing's heart rarely raced, and he checked himself in the mirror, worried he might have Munchausen syndrome.
Probably not, I just like beautiful women... Qin Changqing thought, realizing that besides liking beauty, he didn't seem to have any other bad habits.
Yes, that's it!
That night, Qin Changqing once again burned the midnight oil, making choices!
...
"Elder, the women being sent over are increasing in number and frequency. I'm feeling physically exhausted. Without a substantial supplement of spiritual qi, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue for long."
"Changqing, whatever you need, just say it!"
"I need more spirit stones!"
"And two days off, I need to spend time with my wife and kids."
Qin Xiaohe felt a bit embarrassed hearing Qin Changqing's request. Their two families had indeed been a bit excessive, focusing solely on family interests without considering Qin Changqing's health and family.
As a man, he understood deeply and nodded, asking, "How many spirit stones do you want?"
Qin Changqing thought for a moment, "To nurture a child with a supreme-grade spirit root, five hundred spirit stones. For an earth spirit root, at least two thousand spirit stones!"
Qin Xiaohe's eyes widened, thinking he was asking for a lot, but he didn't refuse, saying, "I'll go back and discuss it with the patriarch."
After hearing Qin Changqing's conditions, Qin Zhengyang pondered, "A clever woman can't cook without rice. Qin Changqing isn't wrong. This indeed consumes spiritual power and physical strength. Our Qin Family can't be foolish and kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Tell him, I agree!"
Qin Xiaohe nodded.
Qin Zhengyang continued, "Agreed, but our Qin Family shouldn't suffer a loss either. Tell the Lin Family that their share needs to be increased. If Qin Changqing asks us for two thousand, they have to give four thousand!"
The two exchanged glances, sharing a meaningful smile.
A month later, a streak of rainbow light descended upon the Lin Family estate. As the light faded, it revealed Lin Yuxia, who had hurried back.
"Patriarch, what's the urgent matter at home?" Lin Yuxia asked, seeing Lin Xiuwen seated calmly, not appearing to be in a rush.
Lin Xiuwen gestured, "Yuxia, no rush, sit down and let's talk slowly..."
Lin Yuxia sat down suspiciously, listening to Lin Xiuwen's slow explanation. Her eyes widened more and more, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "Controlling the aptitude of offspring, nurturing spirit root immortal seedlings? How could such a person exist in the world? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Lin Xiuwen smiled and waved his hand, and an elder immediately brought over a newborn child, "This is the offspring of Qin Changqing and a woman from our Lin Family. You can test it yourself."
Lin Yuxia immediately took out a spirit-testing stone. Seeing the dazzling spiritual light it emitted, she was momentarily stunned, murmuring, "It's really a supreme-grade spirit root?!"
Lin Xiuwen struck while the iron was hot, gently persuading, "Yuxia, you have the aptitude of a high-grade spirit root. If you were to pair with Qin Changqing, you could give birth to a child with a heaven spirit root. A heaven spirit root! That's a terrifying aptitude that could potentially become a Divine Transformation Heavenly Lord in the future! How many Divine Transformation Heavenly Lords does your Taiqing Sect have?"
Lin Yuxia's breathing quickened, her eyes shining with excitement, but she forced herself to remain calm, saying, "Patriarch, this matter is of great importance, concerning the entire family's interests. You mentioned that Sister Xinyao has already gone to the Qin Family. Why not wait until Sister Xinyao gives birth to a child before making a decision?"
Lin Xiuwen thought it over and agreed, realizing it was safer. Lin Yuxia, after all, was a disciple of a Taiqing Sect elder and had her pride. She couldn't just marry anyone casually.
"Alright, we'll wait for Xinyao to give birth!" Lin Xiuwen nodded in agreement.
A year later.
Lin Xinyao, who had been brought back early, finally gave birth to a chubby baby boy.
All the core members of the Lin Family gathered, holding their breath as Lin Yuxia placed the spirit-testing stone on the baby's forehead.
Whoosh!
Instantly, the room was filled with radiant light, spiritual energy overflowing.
"An earth spirit root! It's really an earth spirit root!"
"Our Lin Family is on the rise, hahaha!"
"Our Lin Family will have an Elemental Infant True Lord in the future. Who would dare provoke us!"
The elders couldn't help but laugh heartily in excitement.
"Not just an Elemental Infant True Lord, perhaps even a Divine Transformation Heavenly Lord..." Lin Xiuwen hinted, looking at Lin Yuxia, who was still in shock.
Lin Yuxia snapped out of her daze, looking at the child in the cradle, and slowly but firmly nodded, "I agree, I'll go now!"
