The Birth of the Fifth Daughter, Excellent Root Bones

The birth of his fourth child brought Xian He wheat seeds.

Xian He decisively cleared one of the four empty plots in the New Courtyard and planted the wheat seeds.

The climate in the Inner World was mild, like spring all year round, so the wheat should mature quickly.

Unexpectedly, by the next day, the wheat hadn't even sprouted.

Based on a series of concurrent rewards, Xian He speculated that the wheat must be a graded spirit plant.

Graded spirit plants generally have a relatively slow growth rate.

The reason the Crystal Pomegranate Tree matured immediately upon being planted was that the empty plot had never been used before.

As for the plot where the wheat was planted, he didn't know how many crops of wild vegetables had been harvested from it; the soil conditions were no longer sufficient to support the rapid maturation of wheat.

Although the ungraded wild vegetables grew quickly, the food cooked from them could only satisfy hunger and could not provide any special buffs.

However, Xian He still needed the three remaining empty plots to grow wild vegetables and harvest their seeds to feed the chickens.

The two Chicken Coops were already bursting at the seams, each having reached the capacity limit of two hundred, unable to accommodate any more Cloud Ying Chickens.

The daily consumption of four hundred chickens was immense. Relying solely on wild vegetable seeds was not enough to feed them, but fortunately, the amount of wood powder produced every day was sufficient.

Half a month later.

Just as Xian He was waiting for the wheat to mature, his fifth child was born.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host, Madam Xiao Xue has successfully given birth to an heir with Good Bone Root!]

[Congratulations to the Host for gaining 100 years of lifespan. Current remaining lifespan: 180 years.]

[Congratulations to the Host for gaining 100 Strength and 100 True Qi, reaching the level of a White Obsidian One-star martial artist.]

[Congratulations to the Host for upgrading Bone Root to Good, increasing cultivation speed tenfold!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a High Grade Three pill—Superior Enlightenment Pill!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining eight mu of Spirit Field!]

"One hundred years of lifespan? White Obsidian One-star? Good Bone Root?" The happiness came so suddenly that Xian He found it hard to process for a moment.

Xiao Xue was truly his lucky star!

With his lifespan increased by one hundred years, he could have at least fifty more children, earning at least fifty system rewards.

His strength had increased to 690, making him a peak White Obsidian One-star martial artist. He was only ten points of strength away from breaking through to White Obsidian Two-star. The gap between him and that dog Li Zhen had narrowed further, and the day for revenge was drawing closer.

Furthermore, with his increased strength, his confidence in winning the Qingguang Tournament had grown even greater.

Furthermore, his strength had increased, allowing him to store heavier items into the Mountain River Society Diagram each time.

With his Bone Quality upgraded to Good, not only would his cultivation speed improve, but the number of buildings he could replicate would also increase by one, and he would unlock administrative permissions for the Mountain River Society Diagram.

"System, now that my Bone Quality has improved, what new permissions has the Mountain River Society Diagram granted me?"

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining Surveillance Authority!]

[The Host can conduct 360-degree, all-encompassing surveillance of every person within the Inner World. Currently, you can only monitor one person at a time. As your Bone Quality improves, the number of people who can be monitored simultaneously will also increase.]

"Surveillance? That's interesting!" Xian He rubbed his chin. "What is that little rascal Xian Dabao up to right now?"

As a thought crossed his mind, a rectangular pop-up window appeared, hovering half a meter in front of him.

Xian Dabao was currently smearing pot ash onto his sleeping younger brother's face!

He was just too naughty!

"You can tell a person's character at three and their future at seven. He's only five and already this wicked; what will he be like when he grows up? Who the hell did he learn this from? He just had to go and learn how to bully people from that idiot Li Zhen!" Xian He rolled up his sleeves, determined to beat the brat's bottom into eight pieces in a moment.

Closing the surveillance screen, Xian He went into the room to check on Xiao Xue.

People's constitutions are different; despite this being her first birth, Xiao Xue hadn't passed out from exhaustion and was still in high spirits.

"Xian He, I want to eat pomegranates. Go pick some for me!" Xiao Xue pouted her rosy, adorable lips and ordered coquettishly.

"Alright, you wait here, I'll go pick some for you!" Xian He stood up and gently kissed Xiao Xue on the forehead.

Taking the opportunity while returning to the Old Courtyard to pick the pomegranates, Xian He caught Xian Dabao and treated him to a sound spanking.

"Stop hitting him, stop hitting him, he's just a child!" Someone had tipped off Grandma Chen and brought her over.

Xian He glanced at her sideways and said coldly, "I'm disciplining my own son; I don't need you to interfere. Why don't you go find somewhere cool to rest? Sister Pomegranate, hurry up and take Grandma Chen away to rest!"

"Yes!"

Sister Pomegranate dragged the nagging Grandma Chen away.

"Stop! Don't hit him!" No sooner had Grandma Chen left than the mastermind behind the scenes, Yun Ling, appeared.

Xian Dabao seemed to have found a lifeline; he reached out with his chubby little hands and cried out loudly, "Mom! Save me, Dad is going to beat me to death!"

"He was smearing pot ash on Erbabao's face. Tell me, does he deserve a beating?" Xian He looked at Yun Ling with a straight face and asked coldly, "Last time he almost kicked Erbabao's little bird into oblivion, and I spared him once. Now he's acting up again; if I don't beat him, should I keep him around?"

Yun Ling was speechless.

After a moment of thought, Yun Ling walked over, and the couple joined forces in a tag-team beating.

"Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I won't dare do it again! I really won't!" Xian Dabao begged for mercy repeatedly. His little bottom felt like it had been beaten into eight pieces. After this painful lesson, he never dared to bully his younger brother again.
