Like every reader, I hate info dumps.
But I feel like just an appropriate amount is necessary.
Also, I don't know if so readers would be comfortable with the content up ahead or not, but please try to look past it.

Sun Ruan poured Wei Jun piping hot green tea into a special ceramic cup from the looks of it. Wei Jun quietly sat opposite him, trying to cope with the pressure Sun Ruan was emitting.
Wei Jun didn't ask for the tea and even when asked, Wei Jun declined, but Sun Ruan poured it anyway. The reason was simple, Sun Ruan was trying to throw him off. Showing him that Wei Jun didn't have the power to refuse him.
And that was what the subtle waves of Qi around him also suggested. However, Wei Jun could only accept whatever was given at the mont. That was the only option after all.
"I heard you had a pleasant eting with lissa. How is she?" sun Ruan said and asked.
"She seed fine when she left." Wei Jun replied. He knew that wasn't what Sun Ruan had asked but that was to show that he was off the balance just like Sun Ruan was hoping.
"What I ant to ask was how did you find her? Was she alright for your taste?" Sun Ruan repeated his question.
The subtle smile on his face showed he was happy with his work. However, Wei Jun could also spot so tension in his words. As if Sun Ruan had no power over lissa.
"Good, good. She's a good woman. You will like her." Sun Ruan said and leaned back with his cup in his hand.
"Are you suggesting sothing, grandfather?" Wei Jun asked. Being thrown off was one thing, being entirely stupid was another and Sun Ruan was hoping for the forr, not the latter so Wei Jun showed a little bit of intellect.
"Of course, I am." Sun Ruan said before he added with a serious expression, "Make a child with her."
"What?" Wei Jun was taken aback. Making a child and marrying were two different things. Still, Wei Jun asked just to clarify, "You an to marry her?"
"No. Just make a child. You don't have to marry her. Of course, you will have to seduce her for that first." Sun Ruan elaborated.
Wei Jun's expression turned cold but only on the inside. He made sure to keep his expression of that of shock on the outside as he said, "But… how can I do that? I'm already engaged."
Wei Jun was confident in his acting and he was sure he could act the way Sun Ruan expected him to.
"No need to worry about that. It's not like you would be marrying her, just make a child. Your fiancée won't have any issues with that." Sun Ruan replied, not bothered by the morality of the situation.
Now Wei Jun understood where the drive of Liu Yu's obsession was coming from. However, it still didn't matter to him. What only mattered was the fact that his will was being undermined, being controlled by soone else.
Still, Wei Jun kept up the act, "But… Still…" He was speechless and acted that way to show his hesitation to Sun Ruan, to show him the ridiculousness of the situation.
"No need to be surprised. It's nothing new and it's nothing last as well." Sun Ruan replied.
The first part of the sentence ant that this had been done before, almost as if it was a norm and the second part suggested that Sun Ruan wasn't done yet with his commands. There was still sothing more.
So Wei Jun waited for Sun Ruan to speak and finally, after a few tense monts, he finally spoke up, relaying his command, "Also, make a child with Lin."
Wei Jun's eyes widened. This ti, he was truly surprised. No acting of any kind. After all, wasn't Sun Ruan asking for sothing super taboo?
"What? What is there to be so surprised about?" Sun Ruan asked seeing the expression of pure shock on Wei Jun's face.
Wei Jun composed himself and asked, "Lin, as in my sister?" Wei Jun asked just to be sure because, of course, there could be many nad Lin out there.
"Of course, who else would I be talking about." Sun Ruan said it like a fact and then added, "Also, she isn't your sister. She is just a soul I saved so she could repay for this day. Her purpose since she ca to this house was to bear your child. Her having a good talent in cultivation was just a blessing on top."
Sun Ruan couldn't have sounded more inconsiderate but magnanimous in one sentence. He was acting like he had done Lin Ruan a favor in her life like he was a ssiah to her, a deity whose commands were absolute to her. As for how inconsiderate he was, could be seen by how he talked about her. He didn't even consider her a human being. Just a breeding machine.
"So you brought her in this house to be your breeding puppet?" Wei Jun asked coldly. There was no hesitation in his voice, no acting, just pure, chilling coldness.
Sun Ruan was montarily taken aback before he smiled and said, "No wonder your replies earlier felt fake. They were fake."
Wei Jun had been caught since the beginning, of course, there was also a possibility that he wasn't and Sun Ruan was making sure of that.
"There's nothing to be surprised about. Make as many heirs as you can. Now that you're a cultivator, your child would be all the more special. And a child with a mana user would be all the more amazing. Of course, that was if she managed to bear it and not die like all the others before her." Sun Ruan began to talk but he wasn't interested in listening to what Wei Jun had to say.
"Marry who you want, knock out who you want. Just make sure to make as many children as possible. No need to worry about the useless matters of morality. No need to worry about seducing Lin as well, just make a child with her tonight." Sun Ruan continued while Wei Jun just coldly stared at him.
Inwardly, he was also having a conversation with the system about this.
[He is right; you know]
[This isn't the first ti it has happened]
[Even I had seventy-three wives but only two children out of all of them]
Putting the point of seventy-three wives aside, Wei Jun was more interested in two children. How was that possible with all that?
[Logically speaking, that's how it goes]
[Cultivators have very low birth rates]
[Male cultivators practice the power of yang which is hot]
[Although it makes your virility tenfold, it also burns your essence clean]
[The sa goes for won who practice the power of yin]
[The more they practice, the more their womb becos inhabitable for children]
[There are unique cases when n practice yin but for that, they have to cut off their yang organ]
[I an their manhood by that]
[Sa goes for won]
[That is why it is better to stick to the logic of the world]
[Yang for n and yin for won]
[Also, the fact that male cultivators can only have children with female cultivators is also another problem]
[You see; a normal womb won't be able to bear your essence if it didn't manage to burn all the way clean]
[If you were to have a child with Xia Lu, it would kill her]
[The greater your power, the greater your yang burns]
[Just look at what happened when you discharged your Qi into that human yesterday]
[What do you think would happen when you let sothing from your inside, hot as hell, inside a normal woman who doesn't have a yin agent to cool it off?]
[She would lt from the inside]
While Sun Ruan sat silently after he had said his part and left Wei Jun to process everything, Wei Jun received a lengthy and precise explanation from the system. The fact that he was being asked to screw his adoptive sister and that he would have to make a child with a mana user wasn't still answered.
[That is nothing to be surprised about]
[In my ti, marriages between siblings or even other relatives as your brother's daughter or your aunt were normal]
[It was to keep the bloodline pure]
[It wasn't just between cultivators but a practice all around the world except for a few religions]
[As for the matter of the hybrid with a mana user or with any other power user]
[There has only been one case of a hybrid throughout history]
[Other than that, countless lives had been lost, mostly won while trying to make a hybrid]
Wei Jun digested all the information and simply asked, 'Is it possible?'
[Like I said, only one case ever]
[Even the hybrid's children weren't hybrids but one was a cultivator while one was a mage]
[In your case, I don't really know]
[lissa might survive if her power increased a bit and her body was made stronger through various ans]
[But I doubt the child would be able to receive the necessary power to survive in the womb]
Done with receiving the lengthy information from the system, Wei Jun simply sighed to all of that. Most of the information to Wei Jun was useless. He didn't need to know whether interfamily marriages were okay or not. He didn't need to know whether he could have a child with another power user or not.
All that mattered was how it affected him and it didn't affect him positively at all. His life was his and his alone. That was the principle of his life. He turned his eyes to Sun Ruan after so ti.
Sun Ruan didn't expect anything but a yes but he was surprised to know when Wei Jun simply uttered. "No."
