Qin Changqing widened his eyes, looking at Qin Rongrong, who was smiling as she locked the door. "Madam Jia, what do you mean by this?"
As soon as he spoke, he felt a surge of heat rising in his abdomen, his body becoming unbearably hot.
Involuntarily, inappropriate scenes from his previous life began to flash through his mind.
Qin Changqing was shocked and quickly tried to mobilize his spiritual power to resist, only to find it useless. Instead, the spiritual power acted like a catalyst, further enhancing the drug's effect within him.
"Brother Qin!"
Qin Changqing took a step back.
"Madam, please have some self-respect!"
"Brother Qin, even cultivators at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm can't resist this 'Desire Spirit Pill,' so don't bother trying!"
Qin Rongrong swayed her hips as she walked closer, her clothes slipping off piece by piece, gradually revealing her voluptuous, fair body.
Qin Changqing shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his mind, his voice low. "I have no grudge against you. Why harm me?"
Qin Rongrong shook her head. "Brother Qin, you misunderstand. I'm not harming you. I've been with Jia Qiang for so long and haven't conceived. People say it's my problem, but I don't believe it... You're so powerful, I just want you to help me!"
"Madam Jia, please have some self-respect. I'm not that kind of person!" Qin Changqing righteously refused, but the desire within him was becoming harder to suppress.
"Brother Changqing, please help me..." Qin Rongrong pressed herself against him, her soft body clinging tightly to Qin Changqing, her breath fragrant.
"The drug is so strong!"
Qin Changqing's will was gradually overwhelmed by the drug. He was merely a cultivator at the first level of the Qi Refining Realm. Even without the drug, he was no match for Qin Rongrong.
Too difficult!
Impossible to resist!
Qin Rongrong directly lifted him and threw him onto the bed.
Why force me like this!
Heaven bear witness, I am also helpless!
"Brother Changqing, stay rational..."
"Isn't the drug a bit too strong?!"
***
Sounds of indulgence echoed from the room.
After a while!
[Detected partner has a low-grade spirit root, please choose:
[1. Consume a ten-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with a high-grade spirit root.]
[2. Consume a hundred-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with a supreme-grade spirit root.]
Qin Changqing was suddenly jolted. Damn, before, the system always forcibly deducted ten years of lifespan, and now there's an extra choice.
During this time, Qin Changqing had already obtained one hundred seventy spirit stones, all exchanged for lifespan, meaning he had gained an additional one hundred seventy years of life. After using seventy years to enhance seven children, if he consumed another hundred years, he would be left with his original lifespan.
Damn it, is it easy to save up spirit stones? They were all hard-earned!
After hesitating for a while, he finally chose the second option. After all, it's his child. If he's going to have one, he should give them the best qualifications!
No matter how poor, don't skimp on the foundation; no matter how hard, don't let the child suffer.
Lifespan can be earned again!
Now that he was a father, his mindset had indeed changed.
"Brother Changqing..."
Qin Rongrong's cheeks were flushed as if drunk, conquered by Qin Changqing, lazily resting her head on his chest.
Because of you, I suffered a great loss this time!
Qin Changqing immediately turned his anger into strength and continued the punishment.
***
After the storm passed, Qin Rongrong dressed, covering her alluring body, and threw a bag to Qin Changqing from her sleeve.
Her cheeks were red as she said, "Brother Changqing, rest assured, I won't tell anyone about this. If I do get pregnant, you'll be my benefactor!"
Benefactor, my ass. Just don't come back to trick me, and I'll thank the heavens.
Qin Changqing rolled his eyes inwardly, watching Qin Rongrong's swaying figure as she left.
He opened the bag!
"Ten spirit stones, at least you have some conscience."
Qin Changqing felt a bit better.
***
After the incident with Qin Rongrong, he understood that the system's enhancement could indeed be improved, but the lifespan consumed would increase exponentially.
If the other party is a mortal, the enhancement limit is high-grade.
If they have a low-grade spirit root, the enhancement limit is supreme-grade.
If they have a mid-grade spirit root, it should be an Earth Spirit Root, high-grade... hiss... Heaven Spirit Root...
Qin Changqing couldn't help but click his tongue inwardly. At this rate, wouldn't it defy the heavens!
However, this would also greatly consume his lifespan. It's not even enhancing himself, so it's not worth it. It seems he must be careful in the future, not to mess around, and focus on gathering more spirit stones.
***
Half a month later, Qin Changqing received an invitation from Jia Qiang.
Although he already knew the outcome, Qin Changqing couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
What a sin!
Jia Qiang, having swept away the previous gloom, held a grand banquet at home, finally clearing up the rumors about his own issues.
The Qin Family also took this seriously because both were cultivators with spirit roots, increasing the chances of giving birth to a child with a spirit root!
Qin Changqing also attended the banquet. While toasting, Jia Qiang casually said, "Brother Changqing, you already have ten children, and I only have one. Although my wife and I both have spirit roots, we still can't compare to your numbers. I truly admire you!"
The implication was clear: our child might have a spirit root, while your wives and concubines are mere mortals. No matter how many you have, they're still useless!
The atmosphere instantly became a bit cold, and the other guest elders were somewhat displeased. Wasn't this an insult to them as well?
Qin Changqing was helpless, only smiling awkwardly.
Jia Qiang wasn't wrong. No one knew better than him about the qualifications of the child in Qin Rongrong's womb.
"Drink, drink! You are all guest elders of the Qin Family, and your children will surely be talented geniuses with spirit roots!" Qin Wenbo raised his glass to ease the atmosphere, and everyone drank in one go.
Qin Rongrong stood beside Jia Qiang, secretly winking at Qin Changqing when no one was looking, her alluring demeanor making Qin Changqing's heart race.
This woman is crazy. What if someone sees!
***
Two months later, Qin Changqing's two concubines gave birth to daughters, whom he named Qin Mengrou and Qin Mengxue.
At the same time, he took in two more concubines, making it twelve in total, exactly one per month.
His number of wives and concubines was the highest among his peers, causing envy and jealousy, but envy was useless. Despite having so many wives and concubines, he could still balance them all.
***
Another half a year passed, and Qin Rongrong successfully gave birth to a boy named Qin Qipeng, symbolizing a great roc spreading its wings and soaring into the sky.
Now, Qin Changqing had nine children, with almost one born every month, currently six boys and three girls.
The boys were named: Qiming, Qifeng, Qihong, Qiyang, Qichen, Qize.
The girls were named: Mengxue, Mengrou, Mengyao.
"Indeed, I have many children, but my own talent is quite touching..." After finishing a day of cultivation, Qin Changqing couldn't help but complain inwardly.
Damn system, can't you give me some benefits? What's the use of only having enhancement seeds!
His talent was indeed lacking. After a year of cultivation, he was still stuck at the first level of the Qi Refining Realm. With a low-grade spirit root, even reaching Foundation Establishment was difficult. Fortunately, he had the system, and as long as he had enough spirit stones, he could almost live forever.
He gradually accepted reality, spending most of his time on his children. His children all had at least high-grade spirit roots, with promising futures. As long as he treated them well, when they grew up and became powerful figures, wouldn't they provide him with spirit stones?
If cultivation talent is lacking, then take a different path. As long as he can live forever, does it matter how he achieves it?
