"Jiang... Jiang Che, that Ten-Aperture Exquisite Heart you gave me last time..."
Shen Yu hesitated, her words trailing off.
"What about it? Was it useful?"
"Very. Especially for formations—it allows ten simultaneous mental processes, speeding up inscription by more than tenfold."
"Good to hear." Jiang Che flashed a carefree smile and wrapped his arm around Shen Yu’s slender waist.
"I... I have a request. Could you... give me another Ten-Aperture Exquisite Heart? I... I want one for the baby."
Shen Yu stammered, her usually aloof demeanor breaking as she made her first-ever plea.
"Oh? Since when do you come begging to me?" Jiang Che was genuinely surprised.
He never imagined Shen Yu would ask for something for their unborn child.
Motherly love!
This girl, born emotionally detached, was now nurturing maternal instincts. Didn’t that mean she’d soon fall for him too?
Jiang Che really was a genius—this child was his ultimate trump card!
Kid, once I win over your mom, there’s nothing in this world I won’t get for you.
"This is maternal love. I can feel it clearly—a bond transcending the physical. I even tested it myself! Even when my soul left my body, I still worried about the baby."
"Perhaps it’s not just maternal love. All human emotions seem to exist beyond mere hormonal reactions."
"Now that I’ve developed this love for the child, I’m also gradually starting to love you."
Shen Yu spoke with deadpan seriousness, her pregnant belly prominent as she pulled out a chart.
"This is a linear graph tracking my emotional fluctuations toward you. It shows a directly proportional upward trend. Projections indicate I’ll fully fall for you in... ten thousand years."
Jiang Che: "..."
Ten thousand years? And she made a spreadsheet? Who the hell quantifies romance this meticulously?!
Then again, ten millennia was both an eternity and the blink of an eye.
With his grasp on immortality, it was nothing more than a fleeting moment.
"Of course, after the baby is born, new variables may affect our relationship—nursing, teaching, watching them grow up..."
"Factoring those in, my projected timeline for loving you drops to between 2,000 and 2,500 years."
"Professor Shen, enough with the calculations! My head’s spinning!"
Jiang Che couldn’t take it anymore.
Shen Yu picked up her blueprint titled A Ten-Millennia Plan to Fall for Jiang Che.
Admittedly, the title had a weirdly poetic ring to it.
She pointed to a marked entry:
[Request child-enhancing treasures from Jiang Che—estimated +5 Love Points.]
???
Self-guided romance? No system, just DIY emotional progression? How does that even work?!
"I’m out of Ten-Aperture Exquisite Hearts!" Jiang Che snapped.
"Oh. Then my timeline extends by five years..." Shen Yu scribbled a small 'X' on her chart.
Pfft—
If this were Mo Lianxing, I’d think she was blackmailing me!
But he knew Shen Yu’s personality—this was just how she operated.
"No Ten-Aperture Hearts, but I’ve got other treasures!" Jiang Che felt like she’d be the death of him.
"Chaos Immortal Physique! Void Immortal Physique! Six Paths Reincarnation Physique! Fate Immortal Physique... All 108 supreme physiques are in my collection! And how about a Supreme Bone? Or Supreme Pupils? Just pick—I’ll mix three immortal bloodlines for the baby, deal?"
Jiang Che had come precisely to forge an unparalleled physique for the child. Infusing these before birth ensured perfect fusion—and would even grant Shen Yu traces of their power.
"Oh~"
Shen Yu added +10 Affection Points in her notebook.
"You’re unbelievable..."
Whatever. No point arguing with her. With her emotional numbness, she’d stay calm while I rage myself to death.
"Chaos Immortal Physique—one for the baby!"
Ding! 500 million points spent.
"How about a Supreme Bone? Born a supreme being, innately wielding supreme runes."
Ding! 200 million points spent.
"Fate Immortal Physique—what do you think, Shen Yu? This is the rarest in my system. Cost me 1 billion points—I couldn’t even bring myself to buy it for me!"
Ding! 1 billion points spent.
After a whirlwind shopping spree, Young Master Jiang had blown 2.2 billion system points.
[System, round it down to 2 billion?]
[...]
[Ding! Host successfully spends 2 billion points on immortal physiques...]
[Ding! Host scams the system, gains 500 million points.]
Not bad—a steep discount.
...
The Chaos Immortal Physique, Supreme Bone, Fate Immortal Physique, and assorted divine blessings—any one of these would rank a cultivator among the top ten prodigies across the Nine Heavens.
But what happens when they all converge in one unborn child?
Absolute pandemonium.
Chu Yuan, with just the Chaos Immortal Physique, had become a Chosen One of Heaven.
[Jiang Che!!! I’ll bear your child—please, give me one!!!]
From the soul-nurturing ring, Mo Lianxing’s voice shrieked with envy.
This is insane! I knew he was hiding more trump cards!
Compared to these physiques, those "premium spirit stones" she’d traded her virtue for were utter trash!
"Shut it!" Jiang Che barked.
Dropping over 2 billion points on his firstborn made his paternal heart bleed.
[Wuuu... Jiang Che, if I got pregnant, would you spoil me like this too?]
"Sure—if you can even conceive!" he taunted.
Mainly, he couldn’t set this precedent. Once started, there’d be no end—his household would soon teem with children like a rabbit warren.
[Hmph! Just you wait—one day I’ll sneak your essence when you’re drunk...]
Jiang Che: "..."
What kind of shameless threat is that?!
His gaze returned to Shen Yu’s belly, where the baby kicked energetically.
"Tch... Let your old man grant you destiny’s favor!"
With a wave, he channeled the essences of Chaos, Fate, and the Supreme Bone into Shen Yu’s womb.
Instantly, terrifying phenomena erupted across the Dragon Palace!
BOOM!!!
Multicolored auroras morphed into dragons and phoenixes, swirling around Shen Yu as celestial harmonies shook the Nine Provinces.
Most shocking of all—her belly became a black hole, voraciously devouring the surrounding spiritual energy!
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought.
