Secret Room Renovation Plan.

"Teacher, Mistress, I beg of you." Bibi Dong pleaded once more as she saw Qian Xunji fall into deep thought.

Qian Xunji had not expected the situation to develop in such an interesting way.

He knew that Bibi Dong was not being sincere.

After all, in the original story, had Qian Xunji done little for Bibi Dong?

Yet in the end, he still met his demise at her hands.

If not for Bibi Dong, Qian Xunji might not have died at all.

But he also knew that even if Bibi Dong was not sincere, she would feign sincerity just to survive and leave the secret chamber.

Was this not a very interesting turn of events?

Leng Lingyuan was now nine months pregnant, so it was indeed not suitable for her to look after Qian Renxue.

They could discuss it again after Leng Lingyuan's child was born; for this month, he would let Bibi Dong feed Qian Renxue herself.

Regardless of anything else, Bibi Dong possessed the cultivation of a Soul Emperor, so the quality of her milk would not be poor.

Moreover, with Xue Ying watching, Bibi Dong would not be able to pull any tricks.

As Leng Lingyuan's personal maid, Xue Ying's talent and cultivation were not low; her status as a Soul Saint was enough to suppress Bibi Dong.

Qian Xunji agreed, "Lingyuan, our child will be born in at most a month, so let's let Bibi Dong look after little Xue for now."

"Little Xue is still small, and she is prone to fussing at night, which might affect your health and mood."

"Once our child is born, we can bring little Xue to our side."

"Besides, with Xue Ying watching, I doubt Bibi Dong would dare to play any games."

"Lingyuan, what do you think?"

"My husband's words are reasonable. Let Bibi Dong look after her for now; once our child is born, we can bring her over to raise and educate together."

"To be honest, I felt a connection with little Xue the moment I saw her, and I am quite fond of the child."

"Mistress, give her to me."

"I won't let Bibi Dong do anything reckless." Xue Ying, being very perceptive, took Qian Renxue from Leng Lingyuan's arms and handed her to Bibi Dong.

"Little Xue, my sweet daughter." Bibi Dong took Qian Renxue into her arms, her face filled with happiness and doting affection.

"Lingyuan, let's leave first." Qian Xunji took Leng Lingyuan's hand and left the secret chamber.

Martial Soul Hall, Pope Palace.

"Lingyuan, I intend to move the Pope Palace out of the Martial Soul Hall and rebuild it on a mountain within Martial Soul City."

"The Martial Soul Hall is, after all, crowded and full of prying eyes, which is quite inconvenient." Qian Xunji voiced the idea he had been brewing for a long time.

Leng Lingyuan instantly saw through Qian Xunji's intentions and retorted coquettishly, "Husband, you just want to expand the secret chamber!"

"Are you not satisfied with having one Bibi Dong?"

"Lingyuan, you don't understand. The God of Incense's divine trials have high requirements for offspring; one Bibi Dong is not enough!"

"I want to aim for the high-end path. After all, my energy is limited, and I cannot waste it on ordinary women."

"And to follow the high-end path, those women might not necessarily look upon me favorably, so I have no choice but to resort to secondary measures."

"Does my husband already have targets in mind?"

"I do have quite a few targets in my heart."

"For instance, the hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast by Tang Hao's side. It is rumored that children born from the union of a human and a transformed soul beast are guaranteed to have Innate Soul Power of level ten, though I do not know if it is true or false."

"It just so happens I can use the transformed soul beast by Tang Hao's side to test it."

"Or perhaps Bo Saixi of Sea God Island."

"Or Tang Weiwei of the Clear Sky Sect."

"Or Zhang Jinfeng of the Blue Lightning."

"They are all excellent choices."

"Husband, you really are greedy!" Leng Lingyuan could not help but roll her eyes.

She then added, "Husband, I can help you cover your tracks, but these people must be under my unified management, and they must be kept in the secret chamber."

"If you agree, I will help you; if you do not, then I won't."

"Very well, Lingyuan, everything shall be as you wish."

"Since that is the case, let me handle the reconstruction of the secret chamber. As a woman, I know how to push the secret chamber to its absolute limit."

"However, we must wait until our child is born."

"Furthermore, our children must never appear inside the Pope Palace in the future."

"Let us build a Saint Son Hall and a Saintess Hall not far from the Martial Soul Hall instead."

"A fine idea, my lady, let us do exactly that," Qian Xunji agreed immediately.

"Husband, you should still take on some concubines when you have the time, if only to pull the wool over people's eyes. After all, having too many children appear at the same time will inevitably invite suspicion."

"Mm, Leng Lingyuan, your words are reasonable."

"By the way, husband, the concubines you take in the future must also be under my management. I will ensure they are absolutely loyal to both you and me."

"Of course, along with them, I grant you the power of life and death over them as well."

"Only in this way can I keep them in check and let them know who the true master of Martial Soul Hall is."

"My lady, everything shall be as you wish," Qian Xunji thought for a moment; letting a woman manage other women was indeed a sound strategy.

"Husband, you must not be agreeing to my request just to coax me into a good mood now, only to be unable to bear it when I actually resort to killing them later."

"Leng Lingyuan, you are my virtuous helper; how could I ever bear to deceive you?"

"In the future, feel free to handle the management of the concubines as you see fit," Qian Xunji promised immediately.

"Husband, with those words from you, I can rest easy. Let us first have people renovate the Pope Palace; the matters of the secret chamber and the concubines can wait until after our children are born," Leng Lingyuan suggested.

"Very well, Leng Lingyuan, it shall be as you say. I will go find Yue Guan and have him handle this matter first."

As he spoke, Qian Xunji escorted Leng Lingyuan back to her room to rest, then summoned Yue Guan to organize the workforce to construct the three halls within Martial Soul Hall: the Pope Palace, the Holy Son Palace, and the Saintess Hall.

Once the three halls were completed, Martial Soul Hall would expand from its original two palaces to five.

As construction on the palaces began, the days passed one by one.

One month later.

Leng Lingyuan went into labor.

A large crowd of people bustled about.

Even Qian Daoliu had arrived.

After all, this was his grandson or granddaughter.

With the sound of a cry, Qian Xunji was the first to enter the delivery room.

Xue Ying walked up to meet him and offered her congratulations: "Master, Great Protector, they are two princesses."

Qian Xunji took the child from Xue Ying's hands, his face beaming with constant smiles.

Xue Ying had only brought one child, the slightly older Qian Renxue.

As for Leng Lingyuan's child, she was held in Leng Lingyuan's own arms.

Qian Xunji walked toward Leng Lingyuan.

Leng Lingyuan spoke up: "Husband, give our two daughters names."

Qian Xunji feigned deep thought, and after three or five seconds, he spoke: "Leng Lingyuan, let the slightly older one be called Qian Renxue, and the slightly younger one be called Qian Renshuang."

"Little Xue, Little Shuang, you have names now. Are you happy?" Leng Lingyuan teased the little faces of Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang.

The moment Qian Xunji spoke the name Qian Renshuang, the system's voice followed.

Qian Daoliu also entered the delivery room, feeling quite happy; after all, having two granddaughters at once was a joyous occasion in life!

However, when he saw Qian Renxue and Qian Renshuang, his face involuntarily darkened.

Did he really think he couldn't tell that Qian Renxue had been born a month early?

Qian Renxue was clearly not Leng Lingyuan's child; whose child she was went without saying.

Simply beastly!

Qian Daoliu suppressed his rage and dragged Qian Xunji out of the delivery room.
