Jiang Hanyun was also taken aback, and glanced at the ’Divine Conch’ in front of her before scanning the crowd, "The Artifact Spirit of this Divine Conch seems to have recognized as its master."
But she hadn’t done anything, and the ’Divine Conch’ had taken it upon itself to lock onto her Primordial Spirit’s aura, recognizing her as its owner.
After the death of Xinyuelian, it seed quite pleased, eagerly coming over to pledge allegiance to her—
The reaction of the people on the Earth Altar, however, was calm and unrippled.
Xinyuelian had died at the hands of Li Xuan, thus the ’Divine Conch’ naturally belonged to the Li family.
Whose hands it ultimately fell into within the Li family was not their concern.
Although several among them also envied, could they really forcibly snatch it from Li Xuan’s hands?
Jiang Yunqi’s brows slightly lifted, visibly delighted. He knew how great a help a genuine divine treasure like this would be to Jiang Hanyun.
Li Xuan himself dared not utter another word, knowing that if he forcibly intercepted it, in the end, he would have to hand it over to Jiang Hanyun.
The one beside him most suited for this item was this violent little fox.
By this ti, everything had settled, and everyone, including Jiang Yunqi, had departed one after another.
They were actually very curious about what changes Luo Yan, after refining Xinyuelian’s True Spirit, would undergo.
This was, after all, the first since the Enter the World and Open the Earth, where an Extre Heaven dignitary tried to seize a body but ended up being swallowed and refined.
But everyone knew their limits, aware that it wasn’t quite appropriate.
On the Earth Altar, very soon only Li Xuan, Yu Hongchang, Jiang Hanyun, Lv Qiluo, and a few others remained.
In Li Xuan’s arms lay the unconscious Yue Qianqian, making him feel sowhat nervous.
Just now, he really hadn’t been thinking about anything; it was just that Yue Qianqian happened to fall close to him.
Li Xuan subconsciously caught her in his arms, with not a single stray thought in his mind.
Yet regrettably, the way the crowd looked at him just now was a bit peculiar, as if they were looking at scum, making Li Xuan himself feel uncomfortable as well.
Li Xuan was very helpless, on one hand thinking that his mind could reflect the sun and moon, and on the other worried that this could trigger a new Shuraba.
Fortunately, Yu Hongchang, for so reason, turned a blind eye to the scene of him holding a beauty, showing no reaction; Jiang Hanyun probably hadn’t thought that much into it.
It was only about three Shichen later that Luo Yan finally awoke from her ditation.
The mont she opened her eyes, the surrounding spiritual force went into chaos, causing a massive vortex to appear.
In the world around, there was a sudden surge of wind and cloud, and lightning flashed with thunderbolts.
This was a sign from heaven triggered by Luo Yan entering the sub-heavenly level, as she adapted to this world and the world to her.
To Li Xuan’s joy, Luo Yan’s once white hair had turned from white to black.
—Although Luo Yan with white hair was also attractive, offering a different charm on the bed, this was always a hurdle in Li Xuan’s heart.
So black hair was better; in the future, he could maybe let Yan dye it.
When the spiritual vortex around her cald, Luo Yan finally opened her eyes.
In her gaze, however, shone a brilliant blue brilliance, bearing the imprint of Xinyuelian.
Li Xuan’s thoughts sank slightly, "Yan, how do you feel now?"
"I’m alright!" At this mont, the unusual light in Luo Yan’s eyes gradually dissipated, becoming clear, "But my Primordial Spirit still needs to stabilize. I may need to go into seclusion for quite a while to secure my mind, to avoid any future problems."
Luo Yan then noticed Li Xuan’s intense inquisitive gaze and couldn’t help but laugh softly.
She knew her Xuan was actually very curious.
Luo Yan pondered for a mont, her lips lifting slightly into a smile.
"I now completely possess her mind—"
She didn’t speak but directly used Buddhism’s ’Telepathy’, conveying her intended ssage into everyone’s ears.
Li Xuan and Yu Hongchang couldn’t help but solemnize, having just felt their minds touched and invaded.
Although Luo Yan’s ’mind’ power certainly couldn’t compare to Xinyuelian in her pri, without a doubt, it was now at the level of great Divine Skills.
"I also now understand what sealing is!"
With a flick of the hand, Luo Yan placed nurous seals on a leaf falling from the sky, binding it with layers upon layers of seals.
"If I wish, I could also be Bodhisattva Xinyuelian!"
When Luo Yan put her hands together, her form beca dignified and glowed like clear lustrous crystal, surrounded by waves of chant and fragrant scent.
But shortly after, Luo Yan lost interest in the Bodhisattva Dharma Phase and instead retrieved a pair of Hongxiu Knives, infusing them with Zhenyuan.
"The Great Heavenly Position and the Extre Heavenly Level are within my reach, but this requires systematic accumulation; it cannot be rushed."
Then, with excitent, joy, and gratitude in her eyes, she looked at Li Xuan.
"But now, I am still myself!"
This was most important to her; she dared not imagine what her future would have been like if her True Spirit and consciousness had been taken.
The thought that she might have left her child behind forever had rendered Luo Yan’s heart to skip a beat—
It was at this mont that Luo Yan finally noticed Yue Qianqian lying in Li Xuan’s arms, causing her smile to stiffen involuntarily.
But then she let out a quiet sigh and averted her gaze.
Luo Yan really couldn’t be bothered to feel jealous or concerned anymore.
Although this man was a complete scoundrel when it ca to his love life, he was reliable in all other aspects.
Like a stable mountain, he brought a sense of security to anyone who leaned on him.
She knew Yue Qianqian’s feelings and understood that they were unstoppable; after all, Qianqian had done a great favor for her this ti.
Moreover, she now had little Pingan.
’Pingan’ was the nickna Luo Yan had given her son, hoping that after a life of too many twists and turns, her son could live peacefully and safely.
Luo Yan was thinking of her child when her expression suddenly changed.
Without another word of thanks to Li Xuan, she tore open the Void leading to the Tianxingtai and rushed in hastily: "The child is crying, he must be hungry. Xuan, we will talk later."
Previously, to assimilate the remnants of the Xinyuelian’s spirit, she had fed her child and handed him over to Dugu Biluo for care.
By now, seven whole Shichen had passed.
Yu Hongshang, having had a child herself, was not surprised by Luo Yan’s reaction.
In the past, her heart had been all about Li Xuan.
But ever since she had Youlong, she started to see n as—hah!
This scoundrel would soon realize that his importance was diminishing day by day.
Her eyes carried a deep aning as she glanced at Li Xuan, and then, with a lazy stretch, she stood up and said, "I need to return to the palace as well. Although Mr. Fulong is taking care of Youlong for , I still worry. You don’t need to concern yourself with the ’Divine-Repressing Array of the Twelve Heavens’ here; others will take care of it."
Jiang Hanyun scratched her head, "I need to study this thing too."
She gestured to the Divine Conch in front of her: "Although the Artifact Spirit has acknowledged as its master, there are still remnants of the Xinyuelian that it greatly dislikes. It wants to quickly infuse it with my blood essence and refine the remnants of Xinyuelian."
Lv Qiluo cast a sidelong glance at Li Xuan, then flew off: "I’m going to visit the Shen Nong Institution; it’s been a while since I’ve been there."
Before long, only Li Xuan and Yue Qianqian were left on the altar.
Li Xuan also wanted to check on little Pingan, but he still had soone in his arms.
Now was not the ti to go inside the Tianxingtai; Mr. and Mrs. Yue were working there, helping him forge the second ’Solar Furnace’.
If they saw their daughter unconscious, who knows what their reaction would be?
Li Xuan felt guilty; being scolded by them didn’t worry him, but if Mr. and Mrs. Yue got too upset and abandoned their work, he would not be able to find another Artifact Refiner of their caliber to create the Solar Furnace for him.
After thinking it over, Li Xuan decided to take Yue Qianqian ho and entrust her to the care of his own mother.
Recently, Mother Liu had a conflict with his older sister-in-law, Su Zhaojun, and was so aggravated that she moved into the Fen Yang Prince Mansion.
Being the prince’s mansion’s lady, she enjoyed a comfortable life, commanding and directing with ease, with Lady Jiang and Madam Xue, two relatives, coming and going, living delightfully well.
The only regret was that she couldn’t see her eldest son and grandson.
When Li Xuan returned, Mother Liu was perusing her dowry account book.
Upon seeing Li Xuan, she lit up with joy: "Xuan, how is little Pingan now, and when can you bring the child over to visit?"
By then Mother Liu had seen Yue Qianqian in Li Xuan’s arms; she was taken aback, and then she thought that her son Xuan truly was worthy of the Li family, where a son or anything else mattered less than a woman.
If it had been any other woman, Mother Liu would have been enraged, but Yue Qianqian was, apart from Hanyun, her favorite girl.
Li Xuan realized that Mother Liu’s gaze on him was as if looking at a troublemaker. He helplessly explained, "Just now, in the efforts to save Yan’s life, Qianqian expended a great deal of her vital essence and might be unconscious for several days, requiring constant care. It is inconvenient for now, so I can only ask Mother to help look after her.
As for little Pingan, I will visit him shortly. When the ti is right, Yan will bring the child to the mansion."
Mother Liu’s face brightened slightly, and then she rembered sothing: "Right, there’s one more thing—your third uncle’s family has agreed to let you inherit their family line for them. Yan doesn’t need to visit her parents, and the child doesn’t need to be sent to them. It’s enough to have their morial tablet in the ancestral hall."
Although they had planned to marry Luo Yan into the family using the inheritance of the family line, the matter had been in discussion until now.
Mother Liu would never allow her own child to call soone else grandpa and grandma, not even a cousin.
She brought up the topic today as a hint to Li Xuan to marry sooner rather than later!
Li Xuan felt a tinge of disappointnt upon hearing this, "Is that the only family we’ve settled with?"
"Not just them, we’re still negotiating with your ninth uncle’s family, and they’re the only suitable ones currently—"
Mother Liu answered subconsciously, but then her face stiffened, and she scolded with a dark expression: "How many family lines do you intend to inherit? Do you want several families among our clansn to end up without heirs?"
Li Xuan too felt that he had misspoken, which was inappropriate, shaful, and not very honorable.
He gave a sheepish laugh, about to say sothing, when a maid rushed in hurriedly.
"Lady!" The maid brightened upon seeing Li Xuan, "Perfect timing, the Prince is here. The Young Heavenly Master is about to give birth—"
Li Xuan perked up, and then resignedly thought, is it a race to the next event?
He also secretly felt relieved, fortunate that he had returned from the Outer Void in ti and hadn’t missed the most important mont of his child’s birth.
