Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1873: Chapter 1873: Xiao Wan Gives Birth

Su Yuanyuan didn’t want Bi Luo to follow, but Qi Hong said there was no problem, and she was happy to see the couple’s good relationship.

The two first went to Jingzhou City, and the people there already knew that the master had arrived and had been waiting.

The City Lord personally came out to greet them.

”City Lord Shangguan, sorry to disturb you.”

”Master, you are too kind, I’ve been awaiting your arrival.”

”City Lord Shangguan, I’m here not only to fulfill my promise, but also to ask the City Lord for a favor once again.”

City Lord Shangguan was troubled. ”Master, this matter really puts me in a tough spot.”

”City Lord Shangguan, no need to worry, please tell me your conditions.”

City Lord Shangguan hesitated and then made a decision. ”Since the master has requested, refusing would make me look petty. I’ll offer another stretch of a thousand miles, including Yuhua Mountain.”

Qi Hong had already looked at the map here and knew that what this City Lord Shangguan was offering was indeed substantial—a thousand miles in all directions, including Yuhua Mountain.

”Thank you, City Lord Shangguan. Whatever you need, feel free to ask.”

”Master, my current cultivation is at the level of an Immortal Monarch, and I have several concubines in the City Lord Mansion. However, none of them can bear a child for me.”

City Lord Shangguan was truly anxious. He even sought out mortal women, but they still couldn’t conceive.

He knew that his high-level cultivation and advanced age might mean his body was not functioning well. He had tried many methods, but none worked.

Having heard that Dong Yong had two more children, how could he not be excited? What did offering a thousand miles matter? Besides, with the master here, the Xuantian Sect would surely prosper in the future, and he could benefit from this connection.

Qi Hong smiled, ”City Lord Shangguan, I’ll need to take your pulse and check. If it truly is a problem with you, even that fruit will be useless.”

”Of course, having the master examine me is my honor.”

Qi Hong mainly used his Divine Sense for examination, which was still feasible. However, he couldn’t directly give the fruit to outsiders.

”City Lord Shangguan, I can’t guarantee success, but we can give it a try.”

”Thank you, Master. Even if it doesn’t work this time, I’ve shown my sincerity. In the future, I’ll keep trying. If Dong Yong can do it, so can I.”

They immediately prepared a room for the master. Bi Luo embraced Qi Hong’s neck, ”Will my husband become the Immortal of Childbirth in the future?”

Qi Hong hugged his wife’s waist and laughed. ”Indeed, in the future, it could bring us many benefits.”

Such childbirth had no impact on him, and it could enhance his reputation and bring benefits. Such matters were worth it.

City Lord Shangguan brought over the Elixir Recipes and Immortal Plants required for concocting two kinds of elixirs.

The quality of the Immortal Plants was quite impressive.

The couple immediately went into seclusion, and City Lord Shangguan waited anxiously outside, very eager.

Qi Hong focused on concocting elixirs while Bi Luo read books beside him, thinking that even though she couldn’t do much else, she should at least be familiar with Immortal Plants, given her husband’s status as an Alchemy Master.

The two kinds of elixirs were relatively simple for Qi Hong, and he also had ideas about another elixir. A day later, all the elixirs were a success.

However, only two Hope Pills were given—one for a man and one for a woman to each take.

Upon receiving the elixirs, City Lord Shangguan’s excitement was evident on his face.

”Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master.”

”City Lord Shangguan, I can’t guarantee anything, so proceed with caution, especially in selecting a female cultivator. It’s best to consult a physician to ensure good physical condition.”

”Yes, I’ve noted it. Thank you, Master. I’ll send someone to find Mr. Chen.”

Qi Hong nodded, ”Very well. City Lord Shangguan, I’ll bid farewell now. If there’s anything I can help with in the future, feel free to find me. I can help the City Lord once.”

This promise was a significant one. City Lord Shangguan felt that his decision was indeed the right one.

He respectfully presented a Storage Bag containing two hundred pieces of Immortal Marrow. This wasn’t Immortal Crystal; it was quite rare, usually held only by high-level cultivators, and seldom seen by junior cultivators.

Qi Hong didn’t refuse and left Jingzhou City with his wife.

This time, they headed to Ningyuan City. Xiao He personally came out to greet them as well.

Qi Hong’s approach was the same, and he clearly told Xiao He that City Lord Shangguan offered a thousand miles and Yuhua Mountain.

”Lord Xiao, please favor me as well.”

Xiao He wasn’t a fool and knew that Shangguan Hong must have gained some benefit.

The two were quite familiar with each other, and while Xiao He wasn’t as keen as Shangguan Hong for descendants, exchanging a thousand miles and half of Yuhua Mountain for a child was acceptable.

”Alright. Since the master has requested, I’ll certainly honor it. Like City Lord Shangguan, I’ll also give a thousand miles and Yuhua Mountain, so your Xuantian Sect will have an entire Yuhua Mountain Range.”

”Lord Xiao is generous. Does Lord Xiao have any other requests?”

”Yes, I have two kinds of elixirs that need the master’s expertise, and I, too, wish for offspring and hope the master can provide a method.”

Qi Hong also assessed Xiao He’s physical condition.

”My promise to Lord Xiao is the same: it’s worth a try, but no guarantees.”

”Alright, I trust the master.”

Qi Hong said nothing further and, a day later, provided the elixirs.

The local authority had already gone to find Chen Rushi, showcasing significant generosity.

Qi Hong didn’t stay outside longer, knowing his wife’s belly was large and outside was ultimately unsafe.

Returning to the Xuantian Sect, Pishi was already setting up arrays; the area had expanded considerably now.

They returned just in time for Xiao Wan to give birth, and Bi Luo was truly a bit apprehensive. She hadn’t heard much when Xiao Ya gave birth, but Xiao Wan’s painful groans were unmistakable.

”Don’t worry.”

”Yes, it’s just some pain, so what?”

Xiao Wan gave birth two hours later. Su Yuanyuan no longer hoped for a girl; the fruit hadn’t worked once. Seeing another grandson, she was somewhat disappointed.

Not only was she disappointed, but Qi Xuan was as well.

The Tan Family knew they had another child and were, of course, quite pleased. Xiao Rue specifically returned, looking at the red-cheeked little brother and smiling. This little guy was quite amusing, with eyes sharp and bright.

Bi Luo looked at the child in her husband’s arms. ”Actually, he’s quite handsome; his features resemble Qi Xuan’s.”

”Yes, the brothers do have similarities.”

They had already checked the nephew’s body, and he seemed to have a Fire Spirit Root, just like his father.

With the child born, Su Yuanyuan felt somewhat relieved and, upon confirming Bi Luo’s news, knew there wouldn’t be issues soon, so she went to the border to set up the array with Pishi.

This speed would be much quicker, and they needed to study the array further to improve it—this was the Xuantian Sect’s reputation on the line.
