All Childhood Tasks Have Been Updated

Upon hearing this, both She Long and Pufferfish, who were guarding outside the hall, felt a chill run down their spines.

You cannot awaken your Martial Soul here!

The young master's Martial Soul is most likely Six-Winged Angel.

If Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul were to awaken here, that would be a huge disaster.

Xue Ye continued, "If this child's Martial Soul quality is exceptional, then I will grant your wish."

"If this child's Martial Soul quality is mediocre, or his Soul Power is very low, or even if it's a Trash Martial Soul, then you can take back what you said today, how about it?"

Upon hearing this, both the Empress and Noble Consort Liu smiled with schadenfreude.

Noble Consort Liu's son, the Second Prince, was the most promising candidate to become the Crown Prince, but he died suddenly, and Xue Qinghe naturally became the Crown Prince.

She naturally harbored resentment towards Xue Qinghe.

The Empress disliked Xue Qinghe entirely because her son, Xue Qinghe, Xue Beng at odds with him.

The Empress sneered, "What kind of beautiful Martial Soul could a country bumpkin's child, found from who-knows-where, possibly possess? Crown Prince, you'd better not let this child's self-esteem be damaged in public. He's your adopted son; can you bear to do that?"

Qian Renxue smiled and replied, "That's hard to say. What if Luo'er's Martial Soul is very strong?"

She emphasized the word "very strong".

Xue Ye seemed intrigued. "Qinghe, would you dare to make a bet with your father?"

Qian Renxue bowed. "Father, let's do it another day. This child caught a cold on the way and is weak and frail. Releasing his Martial Soul for the first time is very taxing."

Xue Ye didn't press the matter. "Alright, let's talk about it another day. We'll also discuss the matter of the young master another day."

Xue Ye revealed a subtle smile; he could tell that the Crown Prince simply didn't dare to gamble.

However, he wasn't lying; bestowing the title of heir apparent without cause might cause resentment among the royal family and nobility.

Therefore, it's best not to seal it off.

After Qian Renxue left with Lin Luo.

The Empress looked at Xue Ye: "Your Majesty, can't you see that the cold is just an excuse? Why not let him awaken his Martial Soul here?"

Xue Ye stroked his beard. "I can tell that the Crown Prince cares a lot about this child. Since he doesn't want to hurt the child's self-esteem in public, I'll give him a way out."

The Empress scoffed, "The Crown Prince is far too frivolous. He treats such a lowly bloodline as his adopted son, as if the title of Heir Apparent is as cheap as cabbage. He should really make that child awaken his Martial Soul in public to deflate the Crown Prince's arrogance."

Consort Tan: "But I don't think that child has the bearing of an ordinary person."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was glared at by the Empress and shut her mouth in fear.

Pretending not to hear, Xue Ye patted his stomach and complained, "The food in the imperial kitchen has been getting less and less to my liking lately, Eunuch Song!"

"This old servant is here!"

Xue Ye: "Find an opportunity to select cooks from the common people to come to the palace. I want to taste what the flavors of life are like."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

On the way back to the palace, Qian Renxue held Lin Luo's hand as they walked through the Imperial Garden. She turned her head and asked, "Do you want Mommy to carry you?"

Lin Luo looked up. "No need."

Qian Renxue was amused and squatted down to look at him. "You've grown up, haven't you? Don't want to tire Mommy out anymore?"

"The relationship between men and women is not clearly defined."

Lin Luo spoke jokingly and smugly, saying that he finally had the right to say those words now, whereas before he was just a baby and had no right to.

Qian Renxue poked Lin Luo on the forehead with her hand, and said with a strange smile, "Oh, now you're quite the smooth talker."

Lin Luo snorted, didn't respond, and ran to the roadside to pick flowers.

At this moment, She Long and the Pufferfish arrived. Qian Renxue regained her composure and said to them:

"Send a message to the Spirit Hall, saying that something big has happened: Luo'er's Martial Soul is about to awaken. Ask if they want to send someone over to see it for themselves."

The important event she was referring to was naturally Lin Luo suddenly turning six years old.

She Long replied, "Young Master, His Holiness the Pope and the Fifth Offering arrived at the Heaven Dou Temple yesterday. Should we have them come over first?"

Qian Renxue was taken aback, then burst out laughing, "Fifth Grandfather? I'm truly impressed! He really did sneak off with Mom after all!"

She then said seriously, "No, inform everyone. Aren't they curious about Luo'er's Martial Soul? Now is the opportunity."

Here you go!

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the side Qian Renxue looked down and saw that Lin Luo had picked a flower from the roadside and was handing it to her.

Qian Renxue was overjoyed. She immediately and secretly transformed back into her original form, smiling as she squatted down in front of Lin Luo, deliberately putting her hands behind her back.

"Hmm, it's a pity Mommy doesn't have hands, so Luo'er has to put them on for her herself~"

Lin Luo didn't mind anything; he just felt that a six-year-old's body was much more comfortable than that of an infant, so he was in a good mood.

"Mom, you're so childish."

Lin Luo commented speechlessly, then reached out and tucked the white flower behind Qian Renxue's ear.

Qian Renxue immediately turned her head, waiting for praise, "Isn't it beautiful?"

Lin Luo: "Beautiful."

"Really? Flowers or Mom?"

Before Lin Luo could respond, She Long immediately shouted, "Young Master! Someone's here!"

Startled, Qian Renxue quickly transformed back into Xue Qinghe, plucked the flower, and guiltily tossed it into the flowerbed. She then swayed as if nothing had happened, whistling.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince"

A group of palace maids bowed in greeting.

"Um."

Qian Renxue quickly straightened her back and responded in a deep, affected voice.

After everyone left, she silently breathed a sigh of relief and smiled helplessly at Lin Luo.

She Long and the Pufferfish exchanged a glance, and the two almost burst out laughing.

After returning to her palace, Qian Renxue went to handle her work, while Lin Luo took off his pants, his buttocks bare, and sat alone on the three-meter-wide bed.

He quietly sensed the activity emanating from the system.

[System update complete]

[Growth System Version 2.0 - Childhood at Your Service]

Lin Luo swiped the interface, examining the main quest interface.

[Current Period: Childhood]

[Remaining Childhood Duration: Four Years]

[Childhood Development Main Quest: Collect Emotion Points]

[Note: One million Emotion Points can be exchanged for one level of Soul Power]

[Emotion Points begin to accumulate]

[Current cumulative Emotion Points: 56]

Lin Luo noticed that the number "56" was slowly increasing, meaning that at this very moment, other people were being influenced by him and were constantly experiencing different emotions.

For example, the affection Qian Renxue felt for him, and the longing Bibi Dong and Guang Ling felt for him.

As previously guessed, the main task of his childhood growth was to collect Soul Power, as Lin Luo himself was unable to cultivate Soul Power.

Soul Power is exchanged for Emotion Points generated by others because of him.

However, this "exchange rate" is terrifyingly high.

One million Emotion Points are needed to exchange for one level of Soul Power.

Lin Luo scrolled through the system interface again and found the system side quest interface.

As expected, this interface still features a large spinning wheel.
