The Entire Lineage Has Heavenly Spirit Roots

Within the Su Family's inner courtyard, screams rang out from time to time, continuing for nearly an hour.

The members of the Su Family sat weakly on the ground, all their direct descendants having been elevated to Heavenly Spirit Roots by Su Chen.

Of course, this was only the first step. Su Chen would continue improving their aptitudes later.

The direct descendants of the Su Family were all wild with joy.

"Heavenly Spirit Root? I actually have a Heavenly Spirit Root now!"

"Aptitudes of this level don't exist in the Five Great Cities at all. I heard that even throughout the Jinghong Empire, only two or three people have this kind of aptitude."

"Good heavens, hit me quickly. I feel like all of this is just a dream."

"Smack!"

"Su Kongshan, you actually hit me? Do you think I don't know whether it's real or not? I only wanted to express my shock. The key is, you hit me so hard! Just tell me, you did that on purpose, didn't you?"

Su Kongshan looked aggrieved. Wasn't it you who told me to hit you?

Su Qingyun was likewise ecstatic. With such a group of Heavenly Spirit Roots, how could the Su Family fail to flourish in the future?

He suddenly said, "The Young Clan Leader has improved your aptitudes. Hurry up and thank him."

Although they had no idea how Su Chen had managed to accomplish such an outrageous feat, that was no longer important.

The Su Family would certainly belong to Su Chen in the future. Having the younger generation build a good relationship with him now would benefit them even more later.

The younger generation immediately came to their senses. They rose one after another and saluted. "Thank you, Young Clan Leader."

At that moment, the way they looked at Su Chen changed. Their eyes held a trace of awe and gratitude.

Su Chen did not refuse. He merely smiled and nodded.

Su Qingtian suddenly said sternly, "No one is allowed to leave. Everyone is to go to the Great Elder first."

The other elders immediately understood Su Qingtian's intentions. Today's events could not be spread outside. Otherwise, the Su Family would face absolute annihilation.

Even though they had read countless ancient texts, they had never heard of anything that could improve a person's aptitude.

There were only some heaven-defying treasures that could strengthen the body and raise one's limits.

But the help Su Chen had brought them was completely different. He had truly and utterly changed their aptitudes. These were two entirely different concepts.

Therefore, Su Qingtian planned to use the Soul-Sealing Curse on all the direct descendants, forcibly restricting their souls. Only then could he ensure that today's events would not be leaked.

Su Yunqian also spoke up. "Come with me."

Some of the direct descendants were dumbfounded, not knowing what they were supposed to do. Others were clever enough to understand the reason, but none of them showed any resistance.

In their eyes, today's events absolutely could not be spread.

After they had all left, Su Chen glanced at Ruoxi beside him and said calmly, "Ruoxi, you come over too."

Ruoxi was slightly stunned, but she immediately understood. Her face instantly filled with wild joy.

"Thank you, Young Clan Leader!"

Before long, Ruoxi began rolling all over the ground and screaming in agony.

Improving Ruoxi's cultivation was actually very simple for Su Chen. This little girl was extremely loyal to him, and her ability to handle affairs was decent. After raising her cultivation, she would be able to help him with more matters.

Only Su Chen and Ruoxi remained in the courtyard.

Not long afterward, the pain vanished from Ruoxi's face. Feeling Spiritual Energy rapidly surge into her body, her pretty face brimmed with excitement.

From now on, I have a Heavenly Spirit Root too!

Ruoxi hurriedly knelt before Su Chen, her voice full of respect. "Ruoxi thanks the Young Clan Leader for this gift."

Su Chen said indifferently, "I have bestowed a Heavenly Spirit Root upon you because I hope you will work hard. Do not disappoint me."

Ruoxi's heart tightened. With a solemn expression, she said, "Please rest assured, Young Clan Leader. Ruoxi will belong to you in this life and the next. I will never betray you."

She understood very clearly that what the Young Clan Leader valued was definitely not ability, but loyalty.

With Su Chen's status, if he wanted someone to work for him, there were countless people more capable than her.

Yet he had still chosen to improve her aptitude. That showed that what Su Chen valued was her loyalty.

Ruoxi's heart was filled with excitement. This meant that as long as she remained loyal to Su Chen, she would be valued.

From the moment she began serving Su Chen, she had become his person. Loyalty was the most basic requirement.

Besides, she was now willing to die for Su Chen. What difficulty could loyalty possibly pose?

Su Chen said indifferently, "I hope those aren't just words."

He turned and returned to his room. Ruoxi watched his back, lightly biting her lip. Her face flushed as she said,

"Young Clan Leader... do you need this servant to attend your bed?"

Aside from taking care of her master's food and daily life, a maid also had to attend his bed when necessary. This was perfectly normal in the Su Family.

Su Chen raised an eyebrow and turned back into the room.

Ruoxi was ecstatic. The Young Clan Leader had not closed the door, which meant he was telling her to enter.

Her face filled with excitement and eagerness. She hurried after him. Seeing Su Chen lying on the bed, she walked over, gently removed her clothes, and climbed onto it.

Remembering the instructions from the Su Family's steward, Ruoxi's face became covered in rosy clouds. She gently undid Su Chen's clothes, and then...

A night of springtime bliss.

At dawn, the world was shrouded in misty rain, carrying a cool, refreshing air.

Su Chen walked out of the room looking refreshed. Ruoxi followed behind him, her steps somewhat unnatural. Clearly, she had suffered a crushing defeat the previous night.

Su Chen felt incomparably comfortable. He was no saint, after all.

Since he had transmigrated, he naturally had to enjoy life properly. Was he supposed to remain single all his life and become a monk?

The things most attractive to men were power, money, and women.

Only children make choices. I want everything!

That was why, when Ruoxi had taken the initiative to ask to attend his bed, he had not refused.

However, one person in the Su Family had yet to have his spirit root improved.

Su Hongyuan.

The old man had just broken through to the Void Refinement stage, and his realm was somewhat unstable. Thus, he had gone into seclusion as soon as he returned to the Su Family. Su Chen could only find time to improve it for him separately.

Several days later, Su Hongyuan stabilized his realm and emerged from the underground passage.

To celebrate, the Su Family held a grand banquet. However, it was only for the family and was not open to outsiders. Su Chen took this opportunity to elevate the old man's spirit root to a Heavenly Spirit Root.

Bright Moon City.

Su Chen lay on the bed wearing a thin white robe, while Ruoxi gently massaged him from the side.

"Reporting to Young Master, someone outside is looking for Ruoxi. She says her name is Li Qingqing."

Ruoxi's hands suddenly stopped, but she quickly resumed her normal expression and continued massaging Su Chen.

"Go out and see her. It's fine," Su Chen said.

Ruoxi looked hesitant. After struggling with her decision for a while, she stood up. "Thank you, Young Master."

Su Chen waved his hand, and Ruoxi turned and left the courtyard.

In front of the Su Family's main gate, a woman in her early twenties paced back and forth, her face filled with anxiety.

Before long, Ruoxi came out.

Seeing Ruoxi's figure, Li Qingqing seemed to have spotted her savior and hurried over.

"Little sister, please, you have to help me. Something happened at home."
