Guan Zilan was doing alright; she just had a slightly better impression of Qin Changqing, finding him quite interesting upon their first meeting.

Huang Miaoying, however, was different. Perhaps it was because they had a child together, but watching Qin Changqing's handsome profile as he focused on storytelling made her heart race and her cheeks blush.

Qin Changqing also noticed the figure outside the window. After finishing the story, he came out, glanced at the child in her arms, and shook his head, saying, "You can't hold her like that. Although the child has an extraordinary constitution and exceptional talent, she's still too young and will feel uncomfortable. Look, she's about to cry!"

Huang Miaoying let out a surprised "ah" and fumbled a bit, "Then... how should I hold her?"

Being a new mother, there were still things she didn't quite understand.

Qin Changqing chuckled and took the child into his arms to demonstrate.

Strangely enough, as soon as the child was in Qin Changqing's arms, her previously scrunched-up little face relaxed instantly, and she grasped his finger tightly, giggling.

"She's laughing! She's laughing!" Huang Miaoying exclaimed in delight.

Qin Changqing smiled and said, "Taking care of a child is a skillful task. You need to be attentive and understand why she's crying or what she wants. You'll gradually learn as you spend more time with her."

The child gently swayed in Qin Changqing's arms, her eyelids drooping, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.

Huang Miaoying stared at Qin Changqing, who was now radiating the glow of a loving father, and couldn't help but be entranced.

She had to admit, a man who knows how to take care of a child is very charming. At that moment, Huang Miaoying thought that perhaps spending her life with Qin Changqing like this wouldn't be so bad—a harmonious family of three, a scene that felt warm just imagining it.

"Changqing..." Huang Miaoying suddenly spoke, her voice indescribably gentle, "This child doesn't have a name yet. How about you give her one?"

Qin Changqing was taken aback, glancing at her in surprise, "You want me to name her?"

"Yes!" Huang Miaoying's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Qin Changqing pondered for a moment.

Although he had many children, there weren't many he had personally named, especially those with great talent, many of whom he hadn't even met. This was a regret for him.

Now, the most talented child was the one in his arms, and having the opportunity to name her made Qin Changqing particularly cautious.

"Xi... How about calling her Mengxi?" Qin Changqing suggested, "Xi represents the morning sun, symbolizing the sun still asleep in the water, gradually revealing itself. Once it rises, it will surely illuminate the world!"

Qin Changqing didn't mention the surname, knowing well that with his current status, the Huang Family would never allow the child to take his surname.

"Mengxi... Mengxi!" Huang Miaoying murmured the name, her eyes shining brightly, and softly said, "Alright, from now on, the child will be called Mengxi!"

"Mengxi..." In the room, Guan Zilan also murmured, her eyes lighting up, "It's quite a nice name!"

...

Time flew by, and during these days, Huang Miaoying would occasionally bring the child to visit Qin Changqing. The family of three would stroll in the courtyard, their laughter ringing like silver bells, and it was evident that Huang Miaoying was very happy now.

As for Guan Zilan, she didn't stay cooped up in the house all the time. She would occasionally come out for a walk, seemingly inadvertently calling Qin Changqing aside for a game of chess, then casually chatting about topics she was interested in, or having Qin Changqing secretly add more chapters to "The Legend of the Immortals."

"So... what happened to Lu Xueqi in the end? Did she end up with Zhang Xiaofan?"

"Even the fairy knows about 'The Legend of the Immortals'?"

"...I overheard bits and pieces. If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine."

"It's just a story. Since the fairy likes to listen, I'm more than happy to share."

...

In the blink of an eye, three months passed.

Qin Changqing finally absorbed all the spirit stones.

[Lifespan: 1,624,378]

As night fell, just as Qin Changqing was about to go to bed, he suddenly caught a whiff of a captivating fragrance. Turning around abruptly, he found Guan Zilan had somehow entered his room.

"Fairy Guan!"

Qin Changqing had long anticipated this day would come, but when Guan Zilan stood before him, he couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.

After all, she was an Elemental Infant cultivator!

How could a mere Qi Refining cultivator like him dare to dream of galloping on the back of an Elemental Infant True Lord... what kind of audacity was that?

"Are you ready?"

Today, Guan Zilan wore a simple yet elegant pleated gauze dress, adding a touch of allure to her cold beauty. Under the candlelight, she appeared even more enchanting.

Qin Changqing's heart itched. Who wouldn't be moved by such a fairy?

Even though he had developed a certain immunity to beauties, facing the supreme Guan Zilan, he felt as if he were eighteen again, filled with youthful excitement.

"I'm ready!"

Qin Changqing took a deep breath and nodded gently.

Guan Zilan sat somewhat awkwardly on the bed, speaking softly, "Then let's begin. I don't have much experience..."

"Understood!" Qin Changqing smiled, extinguishing the candlelight. In the darkness, his gentle voice sounded, "Fairy, relax. Leave everything to me!"

"Alright."

Her voice, tinged with nervousness, carried a hint of tenderness, her breath fragrant as orchids:

"Tonight, you may call me Zilan..."

Qin Changqing smiled slightly, leaning close to her ear, and couldn't help but say, "Zilan, call me brother!"

Guan Zilan, already somewhat intoxicated, chose to follow Qin Changqing's lead, "Bro... Brother!"

Hearing the Elemental Infant True Lord call him brother with a tender tone was like opening a volcanic eruption, unleashing unprecedented power in Qin Changqing.

The long night stretched on, the beauty like a dream, the humble abode welcoming a guest, layers of jade petals unfolding...

As Qin Changqing reveled in the joy of conquest, the system forcibly pulled him back to reality, and the familiar multiple-choice question reappeared.

[Detected that the partner possesses an Earth Spirit Root, please choose:]

[1. Consume a ten-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with a High-grade Spirit Root]

[2. Consume a hundred-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with a Supreme-grade Spirit Root]

[3. Consume a thousand-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with an Earth Spirit Root]

[4. Consume a ten-thousand-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with a Heaven Spirit Root]

[5. Consume a hundred-thousand-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with multiple attribute Heaven Spirit Roots]

[6. Consume a million-year lifespan enhancement seed to give birth to a child with a Perfect Variant Spirit Root]

"666, choose 6!"

"Hurry and get lost!"

After making his choice, Qin Changqing directly dismissed the system, this emotionless thing that didn't understand romance.

At this moment, who had the mind for answering questions? He still wanted to hear Guan Zilan call him brother.

In the depths of passion, Guan Zilan was very obedient, calling him smoothly.

Qin Changqing even went further, asking her to call him "baba," and the entranced Guan Zilan complied without hesitation.

In this world, everyone calls their father "dad," but she didn't know what "baba" meant.

Although Guan Zilan didn't understand, Qin Changqing knew the meaning, satisfying his personal little interest, boosting his combat power to 999...

Other things couldn't be so obvious, so he could only add sound effects in his mind, like "Elemental Infant True Lord, huh?" "I'll show you Elemental Infant True Lord," "Still an Elemental Infant True Lord?" "Do you yield?"...

Throughout history, sages have always been lonely!

Qin Changqing reached the realm of sages, everything as calm as water.

He also began to ponder the issue of spirit roots.

During this time, Qin Changqing had learned a lot about the grades and qualities of spirit roots.

Spirit root attributes are divided into the basic five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Heaven Spirit Roots represent a perfect, pure single-attribute spirit root.

It's the best-known spirit root talent.

However, above Heaven Spirit Roots, there are even better ones.

Above them are multiple attribute Heaven Spirit Roots.

Multiple attribute Heaven Spirit Roots mean possessing two or more perfectly pure attribute spirit roots simultaneously. This talent allows for the same cultivation speed as Heaven Spirit Roots but offers multiple choices.

Each additional attribute means one more power, one more path. In the later stages of cultivation, the advantages become more apparent, surpassing cultivators of the same level.

Above that, Perfect Variant Spirit Roots are fused Heaven Spirit Roots, perfectly merging multiple pure attributes, stronger than Heaven Spirit Roots, such as Thunder Spirit Roots, Yin Spirit Roots, Yang Spirit Roots, etc.

Perfect Variant Spirit Roots not only represent terrifying cultivation speed but also possess special abilities distinct from the five elements, rare and powerful.

They signify formidable combat power, sweeping through cultivators of the same level and even fighting across realms.

In the later stages, cross-realm combat becomes extremely valuable.

After all, the higher the cultivation level, each small realm is like a chasm, just like Guan Zilan, an Elemental Infant cultivator, who often takes decades or even centuries to advance a small realm.
