"Senior Long Hun."

"Grandpa Long Hun."

"Perverted Dragon Long Hun."

Ling Yun raised an eyebrow when Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi greeted Long Yun.

Liao Shuzhen addressed Long Hun as a senior. Bai Xuanyue addressed him as a grandfather. Dongfang Qinzhi addressed him as a pervert. Although Ling Yun agreed that the old dragon was the biggest pervert in the universe, he was surprised by the way the Zither Dao Immortal addressed him. ’Hmm? It seems like there was a story between them in the past?’

"Haish!" Long Hun hissed, looking at Dongfang Qinzhi. "Little Qinzhi, I have repeatedly told you that the events of the past were not intentional, and Huang Hao has already said that it was her fault. Why do you still call me a pervert now? Do you want me to die and become a wandering spirit?"

"Humph!" Dongfang Qinzhi softly snorted. "Aren’t you a wandering spirit with an incomplete soul now, Big Pervert?"

"Tch!" Long Hun’s mouth twitched. "Even though I’m a wandering spirit with an incomplete soul, I can still spank your ass!"

Dongfang Qinzhi’s neck shrank, and she instinctively covered her buttocks with both hands. "Once a pervert, always a pervert; even after death, still a pervert!"

"Cough." Bai Xuanyue pretended to cough. "Grandpa Hun, how could Ling Yun and Sister Ming’s daughter be born immortal?"

"Isn’t it because of my bloodline?" Long Hun returned the question. "Ling Yun has long possessed pure immortal energy within his body, and my bloodline has perfectly fused with his. Besides, he has obtained almost all of my body parts, except for my dragon heart and dragon core. Sheng Ming was wrong to say that he was half immortal, and he should be three-quarters immortal now. When he evolves into the next Primordial Chaos Dragon, he will become a true immortal."

"Is that true, Old Dragon?" Ling Yun, who had been silent for a long time, finally asked.

Long Hun looked at him. "How many decades has it been since you obtained immortal energy? The immortal energy in your body is already too thick now, and you only need to fuse with my last two body parts to achieve true immortality."

"Sigh." Ling Yun sighed heavily because he never wanted to be an immortal, especially since the majority of his women were mortals. Among them, only Ling Xi and Sheng Ming were immortals, and he obtained the immortal energy after the former sacrificed Invidia for him.

"Hey, kid!" Ling Yun looked up at Long Hun. "Even without those events in the past, you will still transcend immortality if you manage to defeat my father and take over his position in the future. My father is omnipotent, and you will inherit everything from him."

Ling Yun nodded slightly. "Hey, Old Dragon! Do you think I can turn all my wives and children into immortals if I defeat your father later?"

"Regarding this matter, I don’t have an answer for you, but I don’t think you’ll be able to do it."

"Why?"

"I don’t know how my father created those immortals, but I know the process has to start from the very beginning. As for your wives and children, they’re quite old now, so I don’t know whether you can turn them into immortals or not." Ling Yun grew gloomy every time he thought about the matter. "If you want to know the truth, you’ll have to ask my father directly because I have no knowledge of his abilities."

"Forget it." Ling Yun stood up with a gloomy expression. He approached Sheng Ming and their daughter, kissed them, and left the room. Long Hun didn’t linger in the room and re-entered his body.

Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi looked confused at the expression on Ling Yun’s face as he left because they could see the gloominess and sorrow there.

"Sister Ming, why does your husband react like that regarding immortality?" Dongfang Qinzhi asked.

Liao Shuzhen thought for a while. "I think his expression has something to do with his wives and children."

"His wives and children?" Bai Xuanyue puzzled.

Sheng Ming sighed and created a qi screen, showing the three women all of Ling Yun’s wives and children. "See? My husband has dozens of wives and twenty children. Among us, only Ling Xi and I are immortals, and the others are mortals. He never wanted to become an immortal because of them, but the lust spirit sacrificed the envy spirit for him, and the immortal energy within his body continues to grow stronger with each passing moment. He loves them very much, and he doesn’t want to lose them, so the issue of immortality always makes him gloomy. They will be reincarnated if they die, and we can help him find their reincarnation, but he doesn’t like that because they are no longer the same people after their reincarnation."

"Eh? Luxuria sacrificed Invidia for him?"

Sheng Ming nodded. "Luxuria sacrificed Invidia after she did some things to some of his wives in the past, and he has obtained her immortal energy ever since."

"Luxuria is truly insane!"

"She sacrificed her race members for love."

"The spirit emperor must have been eager to kill her in the past."

"Haha," Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi looked at Ling Xi, who had just appeared in the room. "What do you three know about love?"

Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi frowned, but they did not argue with Ling Xi because they had never experienced what it was like to fall in love like her and Sheng Ming.

Ling Xi continued directly. "You guys have never experienced the feeling of falling in love, and in your eyes, there is only cultivation and a boring life, so you will never be able to understand my feelings. I have lived much longer than you three, and I have felt the pain of losing someone I love. After his death, I swore never to fall in love again, but fate brought me to my current husband, and he managed to make me fall in love with him. Since I was immortal and I didn’t want to lose my second love, I decided to sacrifice Invidia, who happened to have made a big mistake at that time."

"You’re right, I don’t know anything about love. However, I will never sacrifice a member of my race for my own selfish interests." Dongfang Qinzhi shook her head as she spoke.

Liao Shuzhen asked her. "Is it worth sacrificing a member of your race for him?"

"Your husband clearly has no interest in becoming immortal, but you force him to become one." Bai Xuanyue’s tone was cold.

Ling Xi smiled at them. "Worth? It’s really worth it! Sacrifice? I know more about sacrifice than the three of you! Invidia? I did sacrifice her in the past, but I dared to do so because I knew she would be born again, especially with the feeling of envy in the hearts of all living creatures."

"Hmm?" Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi frowned deeper.

"Invidia has been reborn, and she is in this domain now." Ling Xi created a qi screen that showed Invidia’s existence. "See? She is the current spirit of envy, and the current one is much better than her past. As long as all living beings have the seven deadly sins in their hearts, we seven spirits born from them will never die."

"What if all living creatures no longer had the seven deadly sins in their hearts?"

"We seven spirits will die! However, do you think something like that can happen? Do you believe that all living creatures in this universe can banish the seven deadly sins from their hearts?" Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi answered Ling Xi with a shake of their heads. "See? As long as all living creatures remain as they are now, we seven spirits will never die."

Liao Shuzhen furrowed her brows. "Does that mean you’ll continue to sacrifice the other six to turn them into immortals?

"No," Ling Xi denied. "As I said before, I sacrificed Invidia because she made a grave mistake in the past, and she almost ruined the future of one of his wives, so I had no qualms about sacrificing her at that time. The other five spirits never did anything to us, so I would never use them as sacrifices."

Ling Xi considered using the soul link on Bai Xuanyue, Liao Shuzhen, and Dongfang Qinzhi, but decided against it since Ling Yun didn’t want it. She immediately disappeared from the room after speaking to them.

Sheng Ming spoke to them. "You guys don’t know Ling Xi and my husband yet, and they will never sacrifice the innocent for their own sake. Invidia has already made amends for her past mistakes with death, so they won’t do that to her again. By the way, do you three want to stay in this residence for a few days?"

Liao Shuzhen nodded at her. "There’s never been an immortal baby before, so I’ll stay a few days to play with your daughter, Sister Ming."

"Me too." Dongfang Qinzhi sat down on an empty chair and took her zither from her back. "You haven’t heard me play the zither in a long time, right, Sister Ming? I’ll play it for you and your daughter today."

"I’ll take a look around the residence first, especially the pagoda, and I’ll come back later." Bai Xuanyue disappeared from the room after she finished speaking.

Thereafter, Dongfang Qinzhi began to play her zither, and the melodious strains of her music quickly spread throughout the residence, giving everyone living there peace.

Sheng Ming listened to Dongfang Qinzhi’s music while looking at his daughter’s face. ’Her music always brings peace to everyone! Even my daughter can feel it! If she agrees to be my husband’s wife, we can listen to her music every day.’
