After everything was over, the night returned to silence.
Nalan Yanran had already drifted off to sleep, her delicate body curled under the blankets, breathing soft and steady.
Her expression was peaceful, tinged with the faint smile of someone cradled in love.
Ye Chen stood at the door, watching her quietly.
His eyes softened as he took in the sight...this proud girl, once distant and unreachable, now lying soundly in his bed, safe and content.
A moment passed.
Then, with a gentle smile tugging at his lips, he turned and stepped out into the night.
The courtyard was still. Moonlight painted the rooftops in silver, and a cool breeze rustled the leaves overhead.
No footsteps. No voices. Just the hushed serenity of the Yunlan Sect asleep.
Ye Chen moved like a shadow, careful and silent.
Though he had the qualifications to go where others could not, even he didn't dare test the rules carelessly.
Being caught near the female disciples' quarters in the middle of the night? That would invite more than just lectures.
But fortune was on his side.
Within minutes, he slipped back into his own courtyard.
He opened the door softly and stepped inside.
The room was dark, but he didn't bother lighting a candle.
His limbs felt heavy. The moment his body hit the bed, he let out a long breath.
Her scent still clung faintly to his robe the soft sweetness of her hair, the warmth of her skin.
He closed his eyes, smiling to himself.
"It really feels like a dream."
Three days later.
Perhaps Yun Yun's instructions had worked....Nalan Yanran hadn't visited, allowing Ye Chen to focus on training. Yet, he secretly missed her presence terribly.
Still, she lived in the female disciples' quarters, so he couldn't simply drop by.
Better to focus on spear training, he muttered, gripping his spear to distract himself.
Then, a series of system notifications rang in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations, host! Nalan Yanran is now pregnant. You have received a system reward package."
"Ding! Since this is the host's first time achieving pregnancy, rewards are doubled! You have received a super reward package. Please continue your efforts!"
Normally, pregnancy would take half a month, but in this magical world, faster results were expected.
Though detection was difficult, the system handled it instantly.
Hit the target!
Ye Chen froze for a moment, then a broad smile spread across his face.
I'm going to be a father!?
The thrill was indescribable. After just one night of effort,
it had succeeded. He had poured every ounce of energy into ensuring Nalan Yanran would conceive.
"All my efforts… finally paid off."
Ye Chen's heart leapt as he turned to check the system rewards.
System… open the Super Reward Package."
Ye Chen murmured the command in his mind, anticipation bubbling.
Ding!
Congratulations, Host! You have received a Nine-Star Dou Sect Experience Card.
Ding!
Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the Advanced Celestial Technique: Yuan-Swallowing Art.
Ding!
Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the Qian-Kun Treasure Box.
Ding!
Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the Dragon-Elephant Physique.
Ding!
Congratulations, Host! You have obtained a Primary Puppet Pill.
A stream of system notifications exploded in Ye Chen's mind. He swallowed hard, unable to hide his excitement.
This Super Reward Package… is unbelievably generous!
Ding!
All items have been sent to the system storage. Please claim them yourself, Host.
Ye Chen gritted his teeth, trying to suppress his excitement. Celestial-level techniques… a Nine-Star Dou Sect experience card!
He inhaled deeply and forced himself to remain calm. Then, he focused on the system storage to examine each reward.
Nine-Star Dou Sect Experience Card: Grants the host temporary Nine-Star Dou Sect strength for the duration of a single incense stick.
Yuan-Swallowing Art: Advanced Celestial Technique capable of absorbing all forms of energy in the world to strengthen the user.
Qian-Kun Treasure Box: Contains a miniature world that can autonomously absorb external energy.
Dragon-Elephant Physique: Grants divine strength; when combined with body-refining techniques, it unlocks the power of the Dragon and Elephant.
Endurance and regeneration are extraordinary.
Primary Puppet Pill: Creatures below the Dou Sect level that consume this pill will obey the host unconditionally while retaining their original memories.
"Absolutely… insane!"
Ye Chen's mind raced. The system was absurdly overpowered.
"System… extract Yuan-Swallowing Art."
He focused, and immediately, a flood of information surged into his mind. It was overwhelming, forcing itself into his brain with a terrifying intensity.
Ye Chen gasped, steadying himself as he absorbed the knowledge.
Yuan-Swallowing Art… can absorb any energy source to enhance cultivation.
Energy sources… like the energy of heaven and earth, magical cores, elixirs, spiritual herbs…
The more he understood, the more his eyes widened.
This is ridiculously strong… with just this one technique, I could become a supreme powerhouse.
Indeed, energy was everywhere. Even the energy released by combat techniques or the mystical flames of the world counted.
Once he mastered the Yuan-Swallowing Art, all of it would become his power.
And this is only my first pregnancy reward. When my first child is born, the system rewards are going to be even crazier…
Excitement surged in Ye Chen's heart.
"Extract Dragon-Elephant Physique."
Instantly, a violent power erupted within him, sweeping through every fiber of his being.
If the Yuan-Swallowing Art refined his soul, this power reshaped his body to its absolute limits.
