Two hundred spirit stones, this reward was already quite generous, and it could extend his life by two hundred years.
Finally, after years of hard work, he was seeing the fruits of his labor!
"Brother Changqing, there's something I'd like to discuss with you." Qin Family Elder Qin Xiaohe pondered, "With Qiming's excellent aptitude, he will surely reach Foundation Establishment, and it's not impossible for him to reach the Golden Elixir Realm. The family's resources are limited, after all. We want to send him to the Taixuan Sect. What do you think?"
In truth, there was no need to consult Qin Changqing about this. He was just a live-in son-in-law, and the Qin family had the right to decide the fate of his children.
But now, Qin Changqing's performance in terms of fertility was indeed astonishing. His first child was detected to have a high-grade spirit root, and with such high output, who could guarantee that there wouldn't be more immortal seedlings in the future?
Such a person was enough for the Qin family to take seriously. Now, all the Qin family children had a great relationship with Qin Changqing, which everyone could see. If they acted arbitrarily and caused dissatisfaction from Qin Changqing and the children, it would be a loss.
Qin Changqing thought for a moment and nodded, "This is also a good thing for Qiming. The family can decide."
Well done!
The Qin family members immediately beamed with smiles, finding Qin Changqing more and more agreeable.
He was prolific, produced high-quality offspring, conducted himself well, and contributed significantly to the enlightenment of the Qin family children. Qin Changqing was simply full of virtues!
"In that case, I'll come to pick up Qiming in three days," Qin Xiaohe nodded, "Spend these days well together. Once Qiming joins the Taixuan Sect, he might not have many chances to return."
This old fellow was quite considerate and thorough.
After staying a while longer, the Qin family members rose to take their leave, and Qin Changqing saw them off with a smile.
***
Three days later, Qin Qiming was sent to the Taixuan Sect.
"Father, Mother, I will come back to see you!"
Qin Qiming stood on Qin Xiaohe's artifact flying sword, waving vigorously at the two, his little face flushed red as he tried hard not to cry.
Qin Weiwei cried like a pear blossom in the rain, and Qin Changqing could only comfort her by the side.
He also felt a bit uneasy. After all, Qin Qiming was his first child, and the feelings were naturally different.
He was fine, as he had the system, and would have many opportunities to see Qin Qiming in the future. But Qin Weiwei was a mortal body and would eventually grow old.
For cultivators, decades or even a hundred years were just a snap of the fingers, but for ordinary people, it was a lifetime.
"Let's go!" Qin Xiaohe sighed, picked up Qin Qiming, and instantly soared into the sky.
"Brother Changqing, congratulations, your son will be a disciple of the Taixuan Sect in the future!" Get faster updates on novelping.com.
"Brother Changqing is truly blessed, having such a promising son. You won't have to worry in the future!"
People around congratulated him, offering the gifts they had prepared long ago. Even the usually aloof Jia Qiang squeezed out a smile to offer his congratulations.
Qin Changqing didn't refuse. They were just small gifts, and accepting them wouldn't hurt. If he acted too high and mighty, others might think he had become aloof after having an immortal seedling.
The news of Qin Qiming being sent to the Taixuan Sect quickly spread throughout the family, with some feeling envious and others jealous, marveling at Qin Changqing's good fortune.
***
A year passed quietly.
Qin Changqing's eldest daughter, Qin Mengrou, was again detected to have a high-grade spirit root and was sent to the Taixuan Sect. Qin Changqing received another two hundred spirit stones as a reward from the family.
Everyone envied Qin Changqing's luck, but they weren't too surprised yet.
In the same year, at the Qin family square, the annual aptitude testing was underway as usual.
Qin Wenbo's gaze fell on a little girl entering the field, and he immediately showed a kindly smile, "Mengxue, come to Uncle."
This little girl was Qin Changqing's second daughter, Qin Mengxue.
As soon as Qin Mengxue appeared, the field fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on her, the atmosphere turning solemn.
"Isn't this girl also Qin Changqing's daughter? I wonder if she has a spirit root too?"
"I don't think it's likely. Qin Changqing has already had two children detected with high-grade spirit roots. If this one is also an immortal seedling, that would be too extraordinary!"
"Exactly, having three children with spirit roots in a row, how much virtue did this guy accumulate in his past life?"
There was a murmur of discussion in the field.
Qin Changqing was naturally among them, giving a reassuring look to the somewhat nervous Qin Mengxue.
The moment Qin Mengxue placed her small hand on the spirit-testing stone, it burst into a dazzling light, blinding everyone present.
"My goodness, it's another high-grade spirit root, how is this possible?!" New chapters come out on g.com first.
"It doesn't make sense, it's not fair! Three immortal seedlings in a row, I seriously suspect Qin Changqing has some special method!"
Qin Wenbo's face was also full of shock, his gaze sweeping towards the calm and composed Qin Changqing on the stage.
Having three immortal seedlings in a row was unprecedented in the entire history of the Qin family.
Soon, Qin Xiaohe came to Qin Changqing's residence again, entering with cupped hands and congratulations, "Brother Changqing, you've truly given us a great surprise, another high-grade spirit root!"
Qin Changqing smiled wryly, "Just luck, just luck. Perhaps the Qin family has a good foundation, and I'm just riding the wave."
Qin Xiaohe shook his head. If the Qin family truly had such a bloodline, they wouldn't have remained in this small Xianyang Mountain for so many years; they would have long become the number one cultivation family in the Jing Kingdom.
"This is the family's reward for you, as usual, two hundred spirit stones!" Qin Xiaohe flicked his sleeve, and a box filled with spirit stones appeared on the table.
"Shall I come to pick up Mengxue for the Taixuan Sect in three days?" Qin Xiaohe asked.
Qin Changqing nodded, "I trouble the elder to make the trip."
After Qin Xiaohe and the others left, Qin Weiwei came out from the back hall, sighing, "Is Mengxue going to be sent away too?"
Although Qin Mengxue wasn't her biological child, she was still their child. Qin Changqing had a good family atmosphere, and the children got along well with both their birth mothers and the concubines.
On the other side, seeing Qin Changqing's children being sent away one by one, Qin Rongrong felt both happy and sad.
Qin Changqing turned back with a smile, "It's a good thing for the children to join the Taixuan Sect. Madam should think positively."
Qin Weiwei raised an eyebrow, looking at Qin Changqing suspiciously, "Did you already know, husband?"
Indeed, after so many years together, she understood Qin Changqing well.
Qin Changqing's heart skipped a beat, but he put on a wry smile, "I'm not a spirit-testing stone, how could I know? I just don't want you to be too sad. We have so many children, and there might be more joining the Taixuan Sect in the future. You should get used to it."
This was to give her a little forewarning.
Qin Weiwei gave him a sidelong glance, somewhat resentful, "Isn't it because you're too prolific? Among the entire Qin family, your wives and children are the most numerous."
Qin Changqing felt a bit embarrassed.
My system brother is just that powerful, what can I do? I can't control it!
