Chapter 5 — Lin Yan’s Heavenly Spirit Root, My Son Won’t Be Inferior! Returning to the Sect!
The next day, Yang Chen woke up at noon. After breaking through to the Golden Core realm, his endurance had increased significantly. So, he had slept very late last night.
Lin Xilan was nowhere to be seen by his side. It wasn’t because Lin Xilan had better physical fitness than Yang Chen, but because she had to get up to feed the baby.
Thinking about it, Yang Chen felt quite sorry for his son. He was actually competing with him. Sigh. Guilty as charged. Son, don’t blame Daddy. Even if there isn’t much left, it’s still enough for you to eat.
When Yang Chen walked out of the room, he saw Lin Xilan who was already holding the little one in the yard.
“Chi’er, Daddy’s here! Look at Daddy!” Lin Xilan walked to Yang Chen’s side while holding the child. At this moment, she oozed maternal radiance, completely different from last night.
“Come, son!” Yang Chen took the little one. Suddenly, the baby started crying.
“Oh, you don’t want Daddy to hold you?” Helpless, Yang Chen had to hand him back to Lin Xilan.
“When this little one is three years old, we’ll start testing his spiritual roots!”
“So early?” Lin Xilan was surprised because ordinary tests for spiritual roots were usually done around the age of six.
“Mainly because I’m somewhat looking forward to it! His elder brother Lin Yan possesses Heavenly Spirit Root, so I think my son’s talent won’t be inferior! We’ll do a preliminary test by then!”
Yang Chen was looking forward to it. After all, his son had directly plundered 3000 points of providence luck from his elder brother Lin Yan. His spiritual roots shouldn’t be too bad. Even if he’s not as good as Lin Yan, he should still have Earth Spirit Roots.
Son, your spiritual roots must be good. Also, grow up quickly. Father is still waiting for you to protect him. If your elder brother wants to kill me, you must stand in front of me. Let your elder brother understand that you don’t want to be fatherless like him.
So, Yang Chen stayed in this small courtyard for another half year. After half a year of hard work, Lin Xilan’s belly showed signs of movement again.
“Wife, let me listen!”
“So annoying, it’s only been two months, what can you hear?” Lin Xilan coquettishly scolded. But her hands gently pressed against Yang Chen’s head, her face full of tenderness.
“Husband, how long will it take for you come back, when you go back to the sect this time?” Lin Xilan’s voice was full of reluctance. She really didn’t want to leave her husband for a moment now. She wished she could fall asleep holding her husband every day.
Yang Chen stood up and hugged her. “I’ll be back in at most half a month! By then, I’ll take you and our son to live in the sect!”
Lin Xilan lowered her head. “I, a mortal, going to an immortal sect, is it appropriate? You are the Holy Son of the Xuantian Sect, but you have me, a mortal, as your wife! I’m worried that the elders of the Xuantian Sect won’t allow it, and others will laugh at you!”
“Who dares!”
Yang Chen’s voice suddenly became serious.
“Whoever dares to say that, I’ll kill them!”
“Don’t be like this, husband, as long as you don’t mind, it’s fine!” Lin Xilan nestled her small head in Yang Chen’s arms, showing a hint of cuteness and softness.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile. Damn it, am always so easily excited.
“Wife, I’m leaving, don’t you want to show me some … affection?”
“Show? Show what?” Lin Xilan raised her head, her eyes somewhat puzzled.
“What do you think?” Yang Chen raised his eyebrows at her.
After more than a year of married life, a gesture meant everything to the other person. Lin Xilan’s cheeks turned red immediately.
“Forget it, husband! I’m pregnant!”
Yang Chen patted her head, smoothing the strands of hair on her forehead and tucking them behind her ears. This simple and warm gesture made Lin Xilan’s cheeks flush instantly with a blush of fire. After more than a year of married life, she was very clear about what this gesture meant.
“You’re so annoying!” Lin Xilan coquettishly scolded. Then, Yang Chen raised his neck. The reason why Yang Chen didn’t bring Lin Xilan with him this time when he returned to the Xuantian Sect was because he had some things to take care of.
Because, according to the original plot, the female lead Shen Xueyan had already broken through to the Golden Core realm. Shen Xueyan herself looked down on him, the Holy Son of the sect. Now that she had broken through to the Golden Core realm, her pride would be as one could imagine.
In the original work, as soon as Shen Xueyan broke through to the Golden Core stage, she wanted to divorce him. According to their agreement, as long as Shen Xueyan could defeat him, Yang Chen had to agree to the divorce unconditionally. Therefore, the reason why Yang Chen went back this time was to fulfill Shen Xueyan’s wish and divorce her.
In passing, he would also humiliate her. After all, his current realm was the Fifth stage of the Golden Core realm! Moreover, after returning, he had another important matter to prepare for: his wedding with Lin Xilan.
After all, the two had the actual status of husband and wife and had a child, and even in their daily address to each other, they still referred to each other as the same. However, Yang Chen had not given her a proper wedding. More importantly, with a proper wedding, he would truly be the legitimate stepfather to his Junior Brother Lin Yan!
