A Man Who Could Become the Empress's Husband Had to Be Extraordinary! [Please Bookmark and Vote]

"Daddy! Daddy! Hurry up and give me a ride home!"

Xuanyou's chubby little hands tugged at Lin Xuan's ears as she anxiously swung her legs.

Before Lin Xuan could recover, Xuanzhu took his hand and said, "Daddy, come home with us."

"That's right, Daddy. Let's go!"

Xuanxi and Xuanhan looked just as eager.

Looking at their innocent, hopeful eyes, how could Lin Xuan bear to refuse?

Besides, staying here really wasn't suitable.

So many women came to propose marriage every day. It couldn't be good for the children.

"All right. Daddy will go home with you." Lin Xuan affectionately patted each of the four little girls on the head.

A faint, nearly imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Donghuang Ziyou's mouth.

Lin Xuan asked, "My darlings, what are your names?"

After spending so much time getting close to his four daughters, Lin Xuan had wanted to know their names for ages.

Xuanzhu raised her hand. "Daddy, I'm Xuanzhu!"

Xuanxi held out the flower petals in her hand. "I'm Xuanxi!"

Xuanhan grinned sweetly. "I'm Xuanhan!"

"And you?" Lin Xuan lifted Xuanyou down from his head.

Xuanyou wrapped her arms around Lin Xuan's arm, unwilling to jump to the ground. She dangled in midair, swinging back and forth. "Daddy, I'm Xuanyou!"

"All right, got it."

Lin Xuan memorized each daughter's name and distinguishing features.

With the Perfect Dad Tutorial, he could tell his four daughters apart at a glance.

He mainly went by their appearance and personalities.

From what Lin Xuan had observed,

his eldest daughter, Xuanzhu, was the most courteous. Every move she made carried the noble bearing of royalty.

His second daughter, Xuanxi, was an adorable little sweetheart. Her chubby cheeks dimpled with lovely dimples whenever she smiled.

His third daughter, Xuanhan, was rather shy. She seemed quiet and refined, and when she grew up, she would surely be a pure white peony.

His fourth daughter, Xuanyou—well, there was no need to say more. She was a little devil.

Anyone else tasked with looking after these four daughters would probably have been overwhelmed from the start.

But Lin Xuan was confident and completely unafraid of whatever challenges lay ahead.

"My darlings, Daddy has something to take care of. Go play over there for a while." Lin Xuan then asked the four girls to step aside.

Xuanzhu immediately led her three younger sisters away.

Lin Xuan said to Donghuang Ziyou, "I can go with you to Northern Profound Heaven, but you have to agree to two things."

Donghuang Ziyou nodded. "Go ahead."

"First, let Uncle Zhao come with me." Lin Xuan glanced at Zhao Wanfu.

Uncle Zhao had been at the Lin Family since before Lin Xuan was born, and had always taken meticulous care of him and the Lin Family.

Now that Lin Xuan was going to Northern Profound Heaven, bringing Uncle Zhao along to enjoy a comfortable life would be a way to repay him.

Zhao Wanfu shook his head. "Young Master, I won't go. An old man like me is attached to the familiar. I just want to stay here."

"All right, then."

Lin Xuan looked back at Donghuang Ziyou. "Uncle Zhao practiced martial arts when he was young. Is there any way you can help him become stronger?"

He figured that with so many people coming to the Lin Family every day, Uncle Zhao would be under even greater pressure once he left.

If anyone tried to cause trouble, Uncle Zhao would need to be able to keep them in line.

Donghuang Ziyou smiled faintly. "That's easy."

She waved her jade hand and produced a jade slip, its entire surface swirling with immortal energy.

"The cultivation method in this jade slip is a Saint-tier technique."

"Although you're at the Profound Connection Realm, and your potential is limited,"

"with this technique, you can reach the Spirit Soul Realm in at most a month."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Wanfu was stunned. He hurriedly accepted the jade slip.

In the martial world of the Azure Dragon Continent, cultivation realms were divided with extreme precision.

Profound Connection, Spirit Wheel, Spirit Soul, Venerable, Emperor Realm, Great Sage, Ancient God, Heavenly Lord...

A single cultivation method could let him soar from the Profound Connection Realm to the Spirit Soul Realm. It was a speed almost like a miracle.

In the past, Zhao Wanfu wouldn't even have dared to dream of it.

After all, his talent was limited, he was no longer young, and his natural aptitude had long since settled.

But none of that was a problem for Empress Donghuang Ziyou.

Zhao Wanfu knew that if the cultivation jade slip in his hands got out, the entire continent would go mad fighting over it.

"And the second thing?" Donghuang Ziyou then looked at Lin Xuan.

"I want to say goodbye to my father." Lin Xuan's gaze dimmed.

A cemetery in Fragrant City.

Lin Xuan stood before his father's gravestone, holding the hands of his four daughters.

"Dad, I have wonderful news to tell you. I have daughters now—and four of them!"

"You never would've dreamed you'd have four granddaughters, would you?"

"Too bad you left so early. You never got to see these adorable children with your own eyes."

Lin Xuan took a deep breath and bowed:

"Today, I'm taking the children away from here. Don't feel lonely by yourself. Uncle Zhao will come visit you often."

After speaking, Lin Xuan turned and left with his four daughters.

Not far away, Donghuang Ziyou stood watching them intently.

When they drew near, she formed a hand seal.

She took Lin Xuan and the four girls with her, pierced through the void, and shot toward the northern sky as a streak of light.

Northern Profound Heaven.

A boundless white world.

Everything was draped in silver, and crystalline snowflakes danced everywhere.

Streams of pure white spiritual energy drifted through the air, making the place seem like an icy paradise of immortals.

To Lin Xuan's surprise, the temperature wasn't low at all. It was quite pleasant.

Donghuang Ziyou flew with him for thirty million li before they finally arrived at the Profound Ice Palace, the seat of the highest authority in Northern Profound Heaven.

"This is my palace," Donghuang Ziyou said calmly.

She then brought Lin Xuan and the children down to the ground.

The palace guards saw her arrive and immediately dropped to one knee in reverence.

Donghuang Ziyou led Lin Xuan and the children through the palace toward the rear courtyard.

Everyone who saw Lin Xuan along the way looked at him with envy and admiration.

Becoming the man of Empress Profound Ice was the dream of every man in Northern Profound Heaven—even throughout the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.

Lin Xuan had accomplished what countless men wouldn't even dare to imagine. It would have been a lie to say they didn't envy him.

Of course, everyone at the Profound Ice Palace believed that a man who could become the Empress's husband had to be extraordinary.

So although they envied him, not one person resented or viewed Lin Xuan with hostility.

Lin Xuan soon arrived with Donghuang Ziyou at the Crystal Palace in the rear courtyard of the Profound Ice Palace.

"This Crystal Palace covers an area of one million li. It's where the children live day to day."

"You can stay here with the children from now on."

Donghuang Ziyou summoned the Crystal Palace guards and servants.

After telling them who Lin Xuan was, she ordered them to obey him completely from then on.

As soon as she finished making the arrangements, Ruoying emerged from a black light and bowed.

"Your Majesty, there's been unusual activity in the Heavenly Devil Realm. The ministers are waiting for you in the front hall to discuss it."

Donghuang Ziyou looked at Lin Xuan. "I'm busy with official matters. You'll have to take care of the children from now on."

"Mm." Lin Xuan nodded.

Donghuang Ziyou then left with Ruoying.

Lin Xuan looked at his four adorable daughters. "My darlings, why don't you show Daddy your rooms first?"

To be the perfect dad, he had to start with the children's everyday routines.
