Volume One, Chapter 12: Mother, Ye Bufan Is Truly Remarkable
In the past, this was incredibly powerful and highly coveted. But now, clearly, if a woman possesses dual spiritual roots, she can give birth to a celestial spiritual root; a single spiritual root can produce a superior celestial spiritual root. Compared to that, the Heavenly Spiritual Root seems rather worthless—neither tasty to consume nor worth discarding.
“Sigh, let’s start with her. Call her over.”
Chen Qing gave the order and then asked, “Ancestor, what exactly is this all about?”
“The details will be explained to you later.”
At that moment, Chen Xinyi arrived.
“Greetings, Ancestor!”
She was currently nineteen years old, at the second level of Qi Refinement.
“Hm, I have a task for you.”
...
When she learned that the task was to conceive a child with a stranger, her mouth dropped open in shock.
“Ancestor, I cannot agree to this.”
Elder Chen furrowed his brows, his voice more authoritative.
“Why not?”
Chen Xinyi knelt under the pressure released by their Golden Core ancestor.
“Ancestor, I... I already have someone I love.”
“Who is it? Tell me, and I will kill him myself.”
Chen Xinyi trembled inwardly, thinking: Do I really dare tell you this?
Usually, the ancestor was never seen and paid no attention to family affairs. What madness had possessed him today to force his great-granddaughter to bear a child with a complete stranger? What was he thinking?
Moreover, she pursued spiritual pleasure and soul fusion—how could she simply engage in such an act with a man she hadn’t even met?
“Ancestor, Ming and I love each other deeply. We would never betray one another, even unto death.”
Seeing her stubbornness, Elder Chen had no choice but to reveal his trump card.
“If you complete this task, I will grant you the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Gold-Binding Pill.”
“Ah!”
“Ancestor, I’m willing!”
In a simply arranged cave dwelling a few hundred meters away from Ye Bufan’s wooden house, Chen Xinyi said, “Why haven’t you made a move yet?”
Ye Bufan chuckled, “Then I shall.”
He stepped forward and embraced her.
It was Chen Xinyi’s first time being held like this by a man. Though nervous, she felt strangely comforted. She wanted to resist but lacked the strength and was reluctant to, for this embrace was warm and soothing.
Their hearts both quickened, each able to feel the rhythmic rise and fall of the other’s pulse.
Chen Xinyi asked, “What’s in your pants pocket?”
Ye Bufan didn’t understand at first, thinking he had nothing in his pocket, but when he noticed where Chen Xinyi was looking—
“Uh!”
Embarrassed, his face immediately flushed red.
Laughing, he said, “It’s nothing.”
“What is it?”
“That’s my gun!”
“Is it some kind of magical artifact? Let me see!”
“All right, you go up first; I’ll show you right away.”
He drew close behind her, grabbing her gently.
Pressing his chest to her back, he whispered, “I’m about to start now.”
Each breath of his warm exhalation brushed softly against her cheek, so vivid and clear.
Half an hour later.

Ye Bufan said, “I choose option five.”
Chen Xinyi laughed, “Your gun’s useless now, no strength left!”
The next day.
At Elder Eight’s family.
“Mother, there’s really no other way this time. We have to ask you to step in.”
On the stage sat a mature-looking woman with remarkably fair and tender skin. She said angrily,
“You unfilial son! You actually want your own mother to do that? I’ll beat you to death!”
Elder Eight dared not resist, running off while saying,
“Mother, please don’t hit me. You’re the best-qualified woman in our family. There’s no other choice.”
“You unfilial son, how dare you talk back! I’ll beat you to death!”
“Ouch, mother, you’re really harsh! Please stop!”
“Wait, listen to me.”
In the end, unable to persuade her, he resorted to reason and facts, explaining the truth to his mother.
“Is what you say true?”
The woman asked uncertainly.
“Of course. This has been confirmed by the Supreme Ancestor. How could it be false!”
“Mother, you have dual spiritual roots. You can give birth to celestial spiritual root children. Think about it—that’s celestial spiritual roots!”
The woman’s heart was moved. Other great families in the sect would surely send their best women as well. Eventually, the sect would be filled with heavenly and celestial spiritual roots, and if her family had none, they would be eliminated. So she had no choice but to go.
Having been a widow for many years, upon hearing this from her unfilial son, a well of hope burst forth within her, impossible to suppress!
“But, can our family gather the 400,000 spirit stones now?”
“Mother, rest assured. I will sell everything we have if I must to raise the 400,000.”
Back at the cave dwelling.
Ye Bufan entered and caught sight of her face.
Her fiery red lips quickly pressed against his!
“Mmm! Mmm!”
“Hmm!”
Who was this? Even more proactive than me!
Of course, he had to respond firmly, not letting her look down on him.
She greedily sought him out!
Ye Bufan wrapped his arm around her waist, pinching gently.
Slowly, one hand slid down to where she was most firm.
Pinching it, he found it very supple!
The beautiful woman said, “Is my butt too big? Do you like it?”
“Haha, of course. I like it big—it’s got a good feel!”
“AndI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
