The addition of Wei Liangnu brought about the biggest change for the Chu family, as it significantly increased the enthusiasm for cultivation among the concubines.

As a scholar at the level of a little genius, it would take a year of cultivation for them to reach the seventh level of Qi Refining. However, concubines like Ning Xiangyue, who were the earliest to follow Chu Shen and start cultivation, have already reached the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining. Chen Ying, who has undergone some "changes," has even reached the seventh level of Qi Refining... It feels like everyone is not much different from the little genius.

"I can do it too!"

In essence, that's the case.

Chu Shen is not the only one benefiting from the system. His concubines also share in the benefits brought by the system. The most typical example is that concubines who have given birth to children receive the system's "Multiple Children, Multiple Blessings" gift package.

The gift package definitely includes benefits such as increased lifespan, improved aptitude, and enhanced spiritual essence. This not only prevents the concubines who have given birth from suffering a decline in vitality, but also benefits their physical and mental health, defying fate.

The system is truly... crying to death. It's really like the V50 model for inducing childbirth.

This, in turn, gave Wei Liangnu a little shock. If the sisters who have given birth to children are so motivated, what reason does she have to be lazy?

Until she was developed to a certain extent by Chu Shen and also received rewards from the system.

Besides the shy and comfortable experience brought by her husband, she unexpectedly had opportunities as well?

Motivation +10!

Compared to the adorable one who is blissfully ignorant, Xiao Hongling's emotions are much more complicated.

She has also been developed to a similar extent and has also benefited from the system's welfare.

No doubts, after all, the system in Dongxuan Heaven is also within the category of opportunities. When Chu Shen asked her to help find a female cultivator with the Five Elements Spiritual Root, he mentioned that he had obtained a special opportunity that would benefit both him and the woman. Now that she has benefited, it can only be said that Chu Shen did not deceive her.

She is increasingly troubled and feels that she made the wrong choice. Wouldn't it be great if she had joined the Chu family earlier?

Now, she has to help Chu Shen find a female cultivator with the Five Elements Spiritual Root. It feels frustrating to willingly give away her own opportunity.

What's even more frustrating is that finding a female cultivator is much easier than expected. The number of open-minded female cultivators far exceeds her imagination, making her feel like the only one pretending to be reserved.

There are many scholars on Chongxue Peak, and naturally, there are many female scholars as well. Regardless of gender, the greatest wish of scholars is to become formal disciples of Langxuan Tian Gong. If that's not possible, they still want to stay on Chongxue Peak, leaving themselves a glimmer of hope and a possibility for their family behind them.

Especially for many people who are certain that they have no hope of promotion, they are not just idling away their days. They constantly study the loopholes specified by Langxuan Tian Gong, trying to exploit the bugs in order to stay on Chongxue Peak.

People like Yuantao are representatives of those who have found a way, but they are more selfish and only think about their own interests, thus taking the wrong path.

There are also people on this path who have found a more correct direction, and that is marriage.

If Xiaohongling is a typical representative of the idea of "independent women," then among the scholars on Chongxue Peak, there is another highly overlapping group, the "marriage maniacs" and the "childbirth maniacs."

The thinking of the "marriage maniacs" is similar to "marriage for a green card." If they have no hope of promotion, then marrying someone who has the potential to be promoted is also a method!

Even some scholars who are about to be expelled due to failing the assessment will use marriage to become the family members of a qualified scholar on Chongxue Peak, in order to avoid their own and their family's fate of being expelled.

The "childbirth maniacs" are the same. If they can't do it themselves, they rely on the next generation. It's human nature, and cultivators are no exception. Having more children is like drawing more cards. With a larger base, they can always draw a good card with excellent aptitude, right?

So if the child stays, does that mean I can stay too? Does that mean the family can stay too?

It's just that this group is very low-key, or rather, the people who know these methods are very low-key, because they also worry that if there is too much commotion, it will alarm the Langhun Heavenly Palace and block these methods.

If Xiao Hongling hadn't helped Chu Shen find a suitable female cultivator and thus come into contact with a group she had never encountered before, she wouldn't have known about these more secretive matters.

But after knowing, she wanted to slap herself twice even more.

How could she have missed such a simple truth? How could she have repeatedly rejected Chu Shen's kindness?

She really ruined a good opportunity for herself!

There is no regret medicine, and what's done is done. She can only swallow the bitterness in her mouth and focus on her own affairs. Otherwise, if she can't even handle her own matters well, it would be the time when Chu Shen loses interest in her and she becomes completely worthless.

No, there is still one more method!

Xiao Hongling looked at her own belly and her expression changed. In the end, she made up her mind.

... Seeking flowers...

While Xiao Hongling was trying to find a way to make up for her life, the news she spread out caused quite a stir within a certain range.

In the outside world, cultivators often have a sense of arrogance. They possess extraordinary powers and feel superior to ordinary people.

But on the Chongxue Peak, scholars who are constantly being attacked by geniuses and even arrogant geniuses, especially those scholars who have no hope of being promoted to formal disciples of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace, burst their own mediocrity.

Why was Xiao Hongling initially so resistant to Chu Shen's proposal to take her as a concubine?

Because she still felt young, extraordinary, and capable of turning the tables.

Many experienced scholars would not think like this. They have a better understanding of themselves and would more coldly weigh the pros and cons.

0........

So when they learned that Chu Shen, the alchemy genius of the Alchemy Academy, who had recently dealt with several ambushers, was privately looking for a suitable female cultivator as a concubine, many people who received the news were evaluating their own conditions and whether they could climb this visible high branch.

Indeed, it was a high branch. Chu Shen's talent in alchemy and combat power were much stronger than ordinary scholars. It seemed very hopeful for him to be promoted to the formal disciple status of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace. If one could climb onto him, there was a great possibility of becoming a family member of a formal disciple in the future!

The only trouble was that Chu Shen didn't accept just anyone. He had certain requirements for the age, appearance, and spiritual root attributes of female cultivators.

Some older female cultivators hated it. They were already cultivators, so why were they still so concerned about age? Do older leftover women have no rights?

Chu Shen: Don't bother, why does this old woman act like a virgin?

After all, some female cultivators who stayed on Chongxue Peak looked young but were actually seventy or eighty years old, or even older. Even if we consider the lifespan of low-level cultivators, they have already entered the middle and later stages of their life cycle.

Perhaps after several decades or even hundreds of years, Chu Shen, who has become accustomed to the significantly longer lifespan of cultivators compared to ordinary people, would be able to accept it. But for now, as a young man, he really couldn't accept it.

In addition, these female cultivators of this age are still low-level cultivators, with limited potential and basically reaching their limits. Aren't the young and beautiful female cultivators with more potential more attractive? Why should he punish himself?
