Clang—!
A sharp metallic crash rang out, and Jiang Lianxin let out a muffled groan as she was forced to retreat backward.
But for Gu Changqing, this was just the beginning.
Like a violent storm, his sword strikes came crashing down on Jiang Lianxin—fierce, relentless, and rapid-fire.
After about 10 minutes…
When Gu Changqing’s sword was resting against Jiang Lianxin’s smooth, snow-white neck, she stood there in a daze.
She… lost?
And not just lost—but was actually defeated by Gu Changqing, whose cultivation was several levels lower than hers!?
No wonder Jiang Lianxin was so stunned. Until now, she had never encountered a single person in the same realm who could be her match. Even that Saintess of the Canglan Holy Land, she had defeated with just five strikes.
She had never once imagined that one day, someone would defeat her while being at a lower cultivation level.
For a moment, Jiang Lianxin almost thought—
“Have I gotten weaker?”
But she quickly dismissed that idea.
No!
It’s not that I’ve gotten weaker… it’s that my husband is just… too strong!
“A loser?”
This was the so-called “good-for-nothing young master of a minor clan” her elder sister Jiang Baiwei had called him?
Heh…
If Jiang Baiwei knew that the “loser” she looked down on could completely crush her in strength, what would she think?
Wasn’t it Jiang Baiwei who had smugly said she was lucky not to have married into the Gu family, and that it was Jiang Lianxin who ended up there instead?
The more pride she feels now, the more regret she’ll have in the future.
Because her husband… was no minor clan’s young master.
He was a true peerless genius, even more monstrous than she was!
At this point, even Jiang Lianxin felt lucky—lucky that Jiang Baiwei awakened an Earth-element spirit body, or else this husband of hers might’ve been stolen away.
In the days that followed, Gu Changqing fully immersed himself in cultivation.
In the Heavenly Xuan Continent, strength was everything.
It wasn’t just about helping Jiang Lianxin seek revenge—what happened to her had sparked a deep sense of urgency in Gu Changqing’s heart.
“Talent means nothing if you’re weak.”
Was Jiang Lianxin not talented?
She was born with a Sacred Bone, and once she grew, she had the potential to reach the Emperor realm.
And yet, she was still crippled by others.
If not for Gu Changqing, Jiang Lianxin might have stayed that way for the rest of her life. Her Sacred Bone would’ve remained shattered, with no chance of being restored.
The Heavenly Xuan Continent was vast—just the Southern Xuan Divine State alone held nearly a hundred regions. And each region contained countless sects and empires.
So many so-called “geniuses”—and yet, how many could truly rise above the rest and reach the Heavenly Sovereign or Emperor Realm?
Right now, Gu Changqing was still too weak.
So weak that he didn’t even dare pass on the cultivation techniques he obtained from the system to his family.
His current strength wasn’t enough to deal with the possible crises that could arise if those techniques were ever exposed.
Of course, aside from cultivation, Gu Changqing also didn’t forget to put effort into “making babies.”
In the courtyard where Gu Changqing lived, joyful sounds echoed nearly every night.
“If I want to get stronger, then I need to make babies!”
Make them. Relentlessly!
Finally, one day, under Gu Changqing’s hard work and dedication, Jiang Lianxin became pregnant!
“Ding! Congratulations, host, Jiang Lianxin is now pregnant.”
Name: Not yet chosen
Gender: Male
Innate Destiny Attributes:
Burning Flame Spirit Body (Orange Grade Tier 3)
Heir of the Sacred Physique (Purple Grade Tier 6)
“Orange Tier 3! Purple Tier 6.”
An orange-tier qualification! The potential of a future Heavenly Sovereign!
His very first son was already destined to become a future Heavenly Sovereign!
Even though it wasn’t a golden-tier physique, Gu Changqing was already very satisfied.
Well, he had no choice—his wife had insane talent, but he himself was somewhat dragging things down.
Gu Changqing had checked his own qualifications—only a green-tier “Martial Genius.”
That he could father a son with orange-tier Heavenly Sovereign potential was entirely thanks to Jiang Lianxin.
“Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received: Azure Flame Pill Body (Gold Grade Tier 1).”
Holy crap! A golden-tier one just dropped!
By having a Heavenly Sovereign son, he got a gold-tier return!
Azure Flame Pill Body — a sacred physique for the Dao of Alchemy.
Increases pill refinement success rate by +200%.
Greatly boosts chances of refining Pill Mark-grade pills.
Comes with Azure Lotus Heartfire, which can be used for both alchemy and combat.
The only thing that slightly disappointed Gu Changqing was that even though the returned attribute was gold-tier, it was an alchemy-based physique. If it had been a martial one, that would’ve been even better.
But regardless, a gold-tier is a gold-tier.
Just as Gu Changqing was feeling a bit let down, he suddenly noticed—
Below his son’s profile, a new attribute bar was slowly forming.
“Double yolk egg? Oh no… twins?!”
Gu Changqing’s breathing quickened slightly—this batch was twins?!
Name: Not yet chosen
Gender: Female
Innate Destiny Attribute: Purple Heaven Thunder-Eroding Physique (Gold Grade Tier 9)
Gu Changqing: !!!
Gold Tier 9?
Was he seeing things?! The highest quality among gold-tier attributes—Gold Grade Tier 9!
A physique nearly approaching red-tier status—eight levels higher than even the Mystic Water Sacred Physique. A supreme divine body!
If the Gold Tier 1 Mystic Water Sacred Physique had the potential to break into the Great Emperor Realm, then a Gold Tier 9 qualification, as long as she didn’t fall along the way, would definitely become a Great Emperor!
And there was even a faint chance… to go beyond the Emperor Realm!
Gu Changqing, who had been feeling a little bitter earlier about only getting a pill-type physique in return, was now ecstatic.
At this moment, his whole body even began to tremble slightly.
Because he thought of something—
His first son, with an Orange Tier 3 qualification, gave him a gold-tier physique in return.
So then…
“Ding! Congratulations, host. You have obtained: Chaos Sword Body (Red Grade Tier 8)”
Chaos Sword Body – a supreme celestial sword physique:
Cultivation speed: +2000%
Sword technique comprehension: +1000%
Sword technique power: +1000%
Sword Dao realm breakthrough speed: +1000%
And all bonuses increase as the host’s cultivation level rises.
Gu Changqing was numb.
Truly numb.
A red-tier innate attribute?!
Good heavens.
If he remembered correctly, the red tier was the highest qualification ever shown in the system.
Gu Changqing didn’t know whether there was anything beyond red-tier attributes…
But for now, the red-tier—the red-tier qualification—was already the system’s limit! The absolute peak!
Chaos Sword Body paired with the Heaven-Slaying Sword Formation…
Gu Changqing couldn’t even imagine what kind of power he’d possess when the two were used together.
“My darling daughter, you really are… Daddy’s good girl! All those days of backbreaking work—nearly exhausting myself—it was all worth it. Every bit of it was worth it!”
A son and a daughter—
His son possessed the potential of a Sovereign
His daughter was destined to become a Great Emperor!
Gu Changqing was thoroughly satisfied—so satisfied, he couldn’t be more satisfied.
He even started looking forward to his third child already.
Now that he had a Red Grade Tier 8 Chaos Sword Body, and with Jiang Lianxin’s Gold Grade Tier 1 Sacred Physique…
He was no longer dragging the team down—in fact, he was now the core baby-making force!
Gu Changqing didn’t dare imagine how heaven-defying their third child would be.
Who knows—maybe it’d be a child with qualifications beyond even the red tier?
