Immortality Starts With Investment

Inside An Miaoli’s cave abode on Holy Son Peak in the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land.

Seven-colored divine light flowed behind An Miaoli. It was completely different from Yan Ruyu’s seven-colored divine light.

Yan Ruyu’s was gentler and leaned toward defense, neutralizing all attacks in the world.

An Miaoli’s seven-colored divine light was colder and sharper, with a far more terrifying killing intent. Its offensive power was unrivaled, as if it could destroy everything in existence.

The two were complete opposites.

Ye Chen examined the current Senior An and frowned slightly. He worried whether the Seven Extremes remnant soul had hidden anything. Now that Senior An’s physique had revived, would the Seven Extremes return to cause trouble?

At that moment, a system notification sounded in Ye Chen’s mind.

”Detected that the recipient An Miaoli’s multiplier has changed…”

”An Miaoli: Eight thousand times elevated to thirty thousand times!”

Ye Chen was shocked when he saw the multiplier.

Thirty thousand times? Was this real?

Not long ago, he had still been worrying about having too few ten-thousand-times female cultivators and had been reluctant to act. Now they were breaking ten thousand one after another.

Senior An had directly reached thirty thousand. That meant the Seven Extremes Immortal Body alone provided a full twenty-two thousand times.

According to the remnant soul, this was not even the complete version. If it could reach great completion in the future, it would rise even higher.

Moreover, Senior An was only one of the seven avatars of the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden. If all seven avatars reached great completion and merged back together in the future, what kind of multiplier would the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden achieve? It might even break a million!

What kind of monstrous talent would a million-times multiplier require? No wonder the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden had played so boldly, splitting herself into seven parts without fear of failure. The returns were simply too enormous.

At the same time, An Miaoli finally opened her eyes. Seven colors flickered briefly within her pupils before fading away. Her beautiful eyes looked at Ye Chen as she spoke softly, just as always, ”Thank you for protecting me, Fellow Daoist Ye. You must have been waiting anxiously!”

She then gave An Yuyi a gentle glance but said nothing.

An author’s work, reposted without consent. The original chapters are on their own page, not here.

From her voice alone, Ye Chen knew there were no hidden issues. Still, he carefully scanned her with his double pupils. Only after confirming everything was fine did he smile and shake his head. ”Not anxious at all. Not even a little!”

Upon hearing this, the coldness on An Miaoli’s face vanished. She shot Ye Chen a reproachful glance. Then, in a rare display, her voice carried a hint of coquettishness as she spoke, ”Can’t I be anxious?”

She had truly waited far too long!

The corners of Ye Chen’s mouth curved upward. Senior An was usually so cold and aloof. This side of her was extremely rare and made him unable to resist teasing her.

With a sweep of his large hand, Ye Chen pulled Senior An into his arms.

An Miaoli gently closed her eyes and let him do as he pleased, gradually sinking into the moment. But soon, she furrowed her brows slightly and opened her clear eyes to look at Ye Chen.

She did not speak, but her gaze said everything.

Ye Chen shook his head, putting on an expression as if he was thinking for her sake. ”Yuyi is still right beside us. Isn’t it inappropriate for us to do this? Maybe we should wait until next time!”

An Yuyi, who had been happily watching her aunt from the side: ???

An Miaoli bit her teeth and pushed Ye Chen down with one hand.

”You didn’t say it was inappropriate when you were dispelling your poison earlier. You didn’t say it was inappropriate when you made me teach Yuyi how to dispel your poison…”

The usually cold and aloof Senior An had been provoked by Ye Chen into bringing up old accounts.

Without waiting for Ye Chen, she switched directly into self-service mode.

A moment later.

Ye Chen let out a long breath as a system notification sounded in his mind.

”Congratulations, host, for gaining a new Dao companion: An Miaoli!”

”An Miaoli: Thirty thousand times. Critical hit feedback and heart strike possible…”

Ye Chen smiled.

After waiting many years for this day, a smile also appeared on An Miaoli’s usually cold face.

An Yuyi on the side smiled as well, happy for her aunt. In the past, she had always been the busy one while her aunt assisted from the side. Now the time for repayment had come.

An Yuyi became proactive, busying herself around the two of them and helping out. Everyone was exceptionally occupied.

…

In this manner, a full seven days passed before everything finally calmed down.

An Miaoli’s face was flushed like a blooming flower, glowing with spring hues. Recalling what had happened earlier and how she and Yuyi had looked side by side, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. But she quickly adjusted her mindset. She only wanted a bloodline.

Nothing more. She had a clear conscience.

She lowered her head and looked at her own belly with anticipation. She had carried so much. She wondered whether she would succeed in one go and get her wish. And if she did have a child, would it be a boy or a girl?

Lost in these thoughts, An Miaoli fell into deep contemplation.

An Yuyi looked at her aunt with some envy. Then she moved closer to Ye Chen. ”Uncle, I also want…”

However, Ye Chen waved his hand without hesitation. ”No, you don’t.”

Ye Chen had no interest in offspring. That was why he had always taken care of it. Otherwise, even though cultivators found it difficult to conceive, given the number of times and the number of female cultivators around him, he would have had children long ago.

This time with Senior An, he had naturally not taken any measures. After all, Senior An was too special and had suffered for far too long. He could not refuse her.

But for other women, the answer was simple: they should not even think about it. He had an infinite future ahead and hopes of achieving eternal life. Why would he need offspring to inherit anything?

As for Senior An, Ye Chen was not optimistic. After all, the stronger a cultivator was, the harder it became to conceive. Senior An might have to wait decades or even a century before her wish could be fulfilled…
