Chương 510: Chapter 509: A Clear Conscience

Now back at the Holy Land, Ye Chen was unaware of the fiancée's situation. Upon returning, he immediately sought Senior An Miaoyi. He brought her into his small world to admire his Star Pool. Before the Star Pool, An Miaoyi, in her flowing white dress, was shrouded in mist, as if ready to ascend. Her eyes and mouth widened to their limits. No wonder the sight was staggering. At the center stood a Fusang Divine Tree, its golden leaves swaying, radiating boundless golden light.

To one side was an Enlightenment Tea Tree, its leaves shimmering with the charm of the Dao. Next to it, a Moon Laurel Immortal Tree dripped with lunar essence, exuding a familiar osmanthus fragrance. Beside it, even more astonishing sights: A divine herb with fruits blazing like vermilion birds. Another with translucent fruits, vivid kirin shadows within. True dragons, true phoenixes, and at the edge, a Sacred Peach Tree. Each golden peach glowed brilliantly, brimming with proud vital energy.

One bite seemed enough to make the body ascend to immortality. All were immortal roots! Eight immortal roots—when the entire cultivation world held only twelve. How was this possible? Did Ye Chen wholesale them? Seeing Senior An's mouth gape, as it had during detoxification, Ye Chen couldn't help but grin. The final Sacred Peach Tree was from the fiancée's critical hit. A supreme herb for the body, one peach could restore the body's source.

Invaluable for any body cultivation technique, it greatly benefited Ye Chen's Indestructible Scripture. He marveled at the fiancée's prowess. One visit yielded three immortal roots. Now back, he showed them to Senior An first. Knowing her concerns as a clone of the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden, he believed these eight immortal roots would boost her confidence. And they did. An Miaoyi never imagined anyone could gather so many immortal roots. Even the Heavenly Emperor couldn't.

Amid her shock, her heart swelled with emotion. These roots weren't conjured by chance. Even with Ye Chen's heaven-defying luck, they demanded immense effort. All for her. Her eyes shimmered with tears. The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

"Senior An, pretty impressive, right?" Ye Chen bragged. No man disliked showing off. Few could resist that feeling. An Miaoyi, seeing Ye Chen's smugness, smiled warmly.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, you're the most impressive! After being away so long, has the underworld poison flared up?" Before her were immortal roots capable of healing source injuries, yet she mentioned the poison. If these roots had spirits, they'd likely manifest to ask what poison could resist their power. Ye Chen grinned, playing along, collapsing into the Star Pool.

"My poison's still severe. During my battle with Heavenly Intention Holy Son, it flared, nearly costing me the fight!" An Miaoyi, serious, stepped barefoot on the water, approaching him.

"That's grave indeed. Fellow Daoist Ye, don't move. I'll detoxify you!" Ye Chen stayed still, admiring as she produced a treasure made of true phoenix tail feathers and celestial silk. She summoned two white bells with cyan divine patterns, beginning the ritual. Mid-ritual, she spoke, "I still feel uneasy. Even if my Seven Extremes Immortal Body advances, I want to leave children for Yuyi before entering the Immortal Realm. That remnant soul might deceive us. Even with an upgraded physique, I could be devoured."

Seeing her concern for Yuyi, Ye Chen smiled, nodding without refusal. They'd discussed this before. Though uninterested in heirs now, he couldn't deny An Miaoyi's wish. She lowered her head, then looked up.

"One might not be enough. I want two—a boy and a girl—so they won't grow up lonely…" Her natural tone made Ye Chen laugh. He teased, "Two might not suffice. You know I'm surrounded by female cultivators, likely with many heirs… If yours are only two, they might feel isolated. Why not have more? They'd support each other, going further…" He was joking, but An Miaoyi pondered seriously, pausing her detoxification. After a while, she nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Ye makes sense… More does seem better. Yuyi would be pleased." Seeing her earnestly plan a brood, Ye Chen admired her. Truly, Senior An was extraordinary! … One detoxification ended. Knowing the poison's stubbornness, An Miaoyi prepared a second round. But Ye Chen interrupted. As she looked at him, puzzled, he smiled.

"On this trip, I chanced upon the Movement Secret of the Nine Secrets! I wish to gift it to you, Senior. Let's study it together!" In Heavenly Evolution Holy Land, An Miaoyi was the best recipient for gifts. Elder Lin Qingtan's rewards no longer crit, only doubling. But An Miaoyi, with her Seven Extremes Immortal Body, had a 2000x multiplier and could crit. Her gratitude always delivered. The Movement Secret's feedback would surely not disappoint…
