Strengthen your offspring. All my descendants are big shots in the fairy world.

Chapter 27: Can you… take me away?

Through clouds and rain, spring returns again and again; in dreams, I’m drunk on you, but the dream ends and my soul is lost.

Qin Changqing looked at Guan Zilan, who was curled up in his arms like a kitten, fast asleep, and couldn't help but gently stroke her face.

Perhaps only in this state of complete relaxation would this aloof Elder of the Taiqing Sect reveal such a posture.

This also filled Qin Changqing with a sense of accomplishment.

“Huh? I’ve actually reached the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage!”

Only now did Qin Changqing feel the change in the spiritual power within his body, which had directly risen from the first level of the Foundation Establishment stage to the third level, a situation that caught him completely off guard.

Looking at Guan Zilan in his arms, Qin Changqing guessed that it must have something to do with her, probably because her cultivation technique had some benefits for her Dao companion in the art of dual cultivation.

Coupled with her accumulation of hundreds of years, it allowed Qin Changqing to leap across two minor realms overnight!

It was indeed an unexpected surprise.

With this benefit, Qin Changqing became even more infatuated with Guan Zilan.

Not only was she beautiful and powerful, but galloping with her also provided cultivation feedback, a double dose of happiness!

Such a woman is too precious!

…

Sunlight streamed through the window lattices, and the sounds of children playing gradually drifted in from outside.

Guan Zilan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes, immediately seeing Qin Changqing looking at her with a gentle expression, causing her fair face to flush red.

“Are you not asleep?”

Seeing Qin Changqing looking so radiant, Guan Zilan couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Last night, they had tossed and turned for so long… how could he still be so energetic?

Although Guan Zilan was experiencing this kind of thing for the first time, she still knew that the art of dual cultivation was extremely draining on a man's body.

Qin Changqing said softly, “I couldn’t bear to sleep, I wanted to look at you more!”

Guan Zilan paused, a touch of tenderness flashing in her eyes, and she pursed her lips without speaking, then leaned her face back against Qin Changqing's chest.

The two remained quietly for a while, but eventually, Guan Zilan gently pushed Qin Changqing away, sat up, and quickly dressed, concealing her alluring figure.

Once again clad in her robes, Guan Zilan regained her aloof and noble temperament.

“Forget about what happened last night.”

Guan Zilan had once again become the aloof Elder of the Taiqing Sect.

Qin Changqing sighed inwardly and nodded.

After all, she was a Nascent Soul True Monarch. Although she had experienced the joy of being a woman last night, she was able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, so her self-control was naturally extremely strong, and it was impossible for her to be easily moved by emotions, otherwise she wouldn't have avoided having a Dao companion for hundreds of years.

Now that her purpose had been achieved, she naturally wanted to draw a clear line between herself and Qin Changqing.

To Guan Zilan, Qin Changqing was just a rather special passerby in her life, who would ultimately become a memory after a hundred years.

Seeing that Guan Zilan was about to turn and leave, Qin Changqing suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her jade arm: “Zilan, wait a moment.”

Guan Zilan's spiritual power flickered slightly, gently shaking off Qin Changqing's hand, and said lightly: “From now on, call me Elder Guan!”

She really does deny people after getting what she wants…

Qin Changqing was a little speechless, but he still nodded, “Alright, Elder Guan.”

“What else is there?”

“Can you… take me with you?” Qin Changqing stared at Guan Zilan, his eyes filled with deep affection.

“You… want me to take you away?”

Guan Zilan's heart seemed to have been struck, and she was stunned, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

In fact, she had been observing Qin Changqing for the past three months and did not dislike him. On the contrary, her impression of him became deeper and deeper.

This man was very special. Facing her, a Nascent Soul True Monarch with profound cultivation, he always behaved neither obsequiously nor arrogantly. The words he occasionally spoke even made her secretly admire him.

Although his cultivation was not high, he possessed a clever and astute mind. He could make ingenious toys and weave many fascinating stories. It seemed that apart from cultivation, there was nothing he was not proficient in!

Qin Changqing's request at this moment was also an affirmation of her charm.

Originally, after discovering Qin Changqing's ability, Guan Zilan had the idea of taking him away, but it was different now that Qin Changqing himself had brought it up.

This kind of being needed, this response of love, allowed her, who had always been aloof and strong, to experience the long-lost warmth and happiness between people.

Of course, Guan Zilan would not show all of this.

“Why do you want me to take you away? Life here is peaceful and comfortable. I see that you live a carefree life every day. Isn't that good?” Guan Zilan suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and asked somewhat doubtfully.

Even if she took Qin Changqing away, she would definitely use Qin Changqing's abilities to continue cultivating spiritual root seedlings, which would not be much different from the current situation.

Of course, Qin Changqing understood this. Even if he went with Guan Zilan, he would still be a tool person.

But the situation was very different now that he had taken the initiative to bring it up. Not only did he gain the initiative, but he would also win Guan Zilan's favor.

After more than ten years, Qin Changqing planned to be sincere for once. In the past, he had no choice. He had been used too much, and he had become somewhat numb. He had always been driven by lust rather than love.

But for Guan Zilan, he was really a little moved, and besides, from a benefit point of view, if he could really develop feelings with her, it would also be a guarantee for himself.

Hugging a big thigh is not shameful!

Of course, there was also an important reason: Qin Changqing wanted to consider his children.

Now that he was staying in the Qin family, although he was superficially free, he was still controlled by the three major families like livestock, without much room for choice, and it was difficult to even see many of his children.

Moreover, the three families were, after all, only small families with limited resources, and Qin Changqing had too many children to take care of them all.

For example, most of the children by his side had superior spiritual roots, but because there were too many immortal seedlings above the extreme spiritual roots, these children born to mortal wives did not receive much resource care.

The children were still young now, but they would eventually embark on the path of cultivation in the future. Continuing to stay in the Qin family would definitely be unpromising and would only delay the children's growth.

Moreover, Qin Changqing's cultivation was linked to his children. A good cultivation environment for his children would also be beneficial to him in improving his strength.

In short, choosing Guan Zilan had too many benefits for him, and the advantages outweighed the disadvantages!

If he was going to be a tool person anyway, why not choose a bigger stage to be one on?

Qin Changqing had already thought this through.

Guan Zilan did not know his little thoughts and said in a deep voice: “Do you know that even if you come with me, you will still have to repeat your current life and continue to nurture spiritual root seedlings for the sect?”

“I know! Although it’s all the same, I think I should be happier following you.” Qin Changqing's eyes were filled with tenderness.

Guan Zilan's eyes were somewhat complicated. After looking at him for a long time, she nodded lightly: “Alright!”

After saying that, her figure flashed and disappeared into the room.
