Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1797: Chapter 1797: Confirmation

Everyone’s eyes were fervently fixed on the Tan Family members. At this moment, the Upper Manor Master directly stood up and cupped his hands towards Qi Hong.

"Young friend Tan, could I ask you to perform alchemy? We’ve already prepared the Immortal Plants; please could you lend your expertise?"

Qi Hong looked at the Shangguan Family Master.

In fact, this was the effect they wanted, ensuring some protection for themselves while they were not yet strong enough.

Others might not know what kind of elixir Hua Lingyun’s was, but the Shangguan Family Master did, and he needed this kind of elixir.

Their ancestor and Hua Lingyun were injured together; this was a secret between two families, never to be revealed, fearing that others might cause trouble, which would greatly weaken the strength of both families.

It seems Hua Lingyun has healed. Their own ancestor endures that kind of torment daily; there’s hope now, so naturally, they won’t miss the opportunity.

The Bai Family Master and the Chen Family Master also stood up and cupped their hands towards Qi Hong, each hoping he would assist with alchemy.

Everyone here fixed their gaze on Qi Hong, awaiting his response.

"Young friend Tan, name your conditions. For anything concerning the Upper Manor in the future, we will face fire and water without hesitation."

Qi Hong nodded. The two quickly exchanged sound transmissions, discussing what elixir the Shangguan Family needed.

Qi Hong nodded, and the Shangguan Family Master turned around excitedly and quickly cupped his hands, "Young friend Tan, could you come to the Upper Manor? All the Immortal Plants are there."

Qi Hong shook his head, "Let’s stay here, but not at the Hua Family; we’ll go to the cave outside."

Hua Lingyun quickly intervened, "Young friend, there’s another villa at home; I’ll have someone arrange it immediately; having it there would be convenient."

Tan Shaoting pondered and did not refuse; there was no need to be too clear right now, which wouldn’t be beneficial to them.

The Shangguan Family Master had no choice but to immediately relay a sound transmission to his family, instructing them to inform their ancestor and send over the Immortal Plants.

The Tan Family arrived at the villa, and it was indeed quite nice here.

They finally felt settled; barely had they arrived when the Bai Family Master and the Chen Family Master already reached them.

"Young friend Tan, we are also here seeking elixir."

Qi Hong invited them to sit down and looked at the elixir recipe handed over by the Bai Family Master. "It is possible to refine."

"That’s good, that’s good; thank you, young friend Tan. What about the effort cost?"

"Ten pieces of Immortal Marrow will suffice." Knowing the immortal power of Immortal Marrow is strong; Gu Ersheng’s advancement requires merely one piece of Immortal Marrow.

The Bai Family Master gritted his teeth and nodded; these Immortal Marrow pieces aren’t easy to come by. They have barely a hundred pieces available and will certainly need many more in the future. Yet, such an alchemist is rare and precious, so they cannot miss the chance, forcing himself to agree, "Alright. Young friend Tan, I will prepare accordingly."

After the Bai Family Master left, the Chen Family Master handed over an elixir recipe.

Qi Hong cast a glance, "This kind of elixir is extremely simple."

"Young friend Tan, we know this, yet we have no trustworthy individuals; you do not belong to any faction, even if someone knew, it wouldn’t affect us."

"Qi Hong nodded, I will keep it confidential, but my minimum requirement is ten pieces of Immortal Marrow."

"I am willing; I will go prepare right now."

Seeing the Chen Family Master out, Qi Wen laughed, "Second Brother, you are really popular now."

At present, Gu Ersheng is eager to be alone with his wife, yet he is also concerned about Qi Hong, so he patiently waits. Now that everything is in order, he pulls Qi Wen into their room before entering space.

"Qi Wen, is it true?"

"Look for yourself."

Gu Ersheng is scared, truly scared; he’s dared not to while her mother was pregnant.

They have been together for a year now, and only now realize there is a child. Could it be a Divine Embryo?

"What’s wrong?" Qi Wen asked curiously as she saw Gu Ersheng hesitating.

"I’m afraid, Qi Wen, I’m afraid, afraid of causing you harm."

Qi Wen smiled, "What harm could there be? Using Divine Sense to probe will reveal everything."

She gently guided his Divine Sense inside, and Gu Ersheng felt extremely excited.

"Are there two?"

"Yes, there are two."

Gu Ersheng’s Divine Sense slowly withdrew.

He carefully embraced his wife.

"Qi Wen, I am so happy, truly."

Gu Ersheng really didn’t know how to express his joy.

Qi Wen leaned into his embrace, a smile gracing her face. Now, there’s no more uncertainty; thinking of the child within her belly, it is indeed their child, one she will give birth to?

She loves children dearly—Qi Hao, Qi Xuan, and little Rue, Xiao Ya—all of whom she particularly cherishes, acknowledging the blood ties.

And now there are two closer-related children, her mind imagining what they might look like. If they were two beautiful little girls, how wonderful! They would certainly resemble their mother; dressing them beautifully.

The current atmosphere between the two was warm and serene. "Qi Wen, would you like to sleep a bit?"

"Sure."

Indeed, there wasn’t anything pressing now. Once they learned about the child, she hadn’t felt particularly fatigued, but now, the knowledge made her feel rather languid, desiring rest.

Gu Ersheng hugged Qi Wen as they lay down, soon observing her as she fell asleep.

Quietly, he got up and went out, looking to check at Treasure Pavilion for introductions related to Divine Embryo.

Now, it could be said he knows little, already a year passed and the child just a tiny bit emerged; if he couldn’t sense them, it would have been worrisome.

Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting returned to their room, discussing the news of Qi Wen’s pregnancy.

Tan Shaoting’s expression was very complex; he didn’t know how to truly describe it.

He was cheerful that the young woman was going to be a mother, pleased she had finally become an adult.

Tan Shaoting, after all, lived in the Mortal World for a while; those thoughts still lingered within him. He believed having a family and children truly made someone an adult.

His discontent lies in seeming like a bad lad made the young woman pregnant.

Su Yuanyuan didn’t bother arguing with him, letting him ponder; she was quite happy anyway. She has always loved children, having birthed six of them herself. With Xiao Rue raised at her side, even ascending together.

Now, two little ones are coming along again, especially since they originated in the Immortal World, which surprises her. It seems that fruit was indeed effective.

Upon hearing Gu Ersheng’s voice outside, Su Yuanyuan went out, Tan Shaoting following her.

"Mother, I want to go out and see if there’s anything about Divine Embryo."

"Divine Embryo?"

"Yes, my impression is that even in the Immortal World, childbirth would mostly take five years. Judging by how Qi Wen’s been pregnant for a year now, that’s still her state. I’ve heard it said that a Divine Embryo requires twenty years."

Su Yuanyuan frowned, "All right, go and take a look."

Once Gu Ersheng left, everyone from the Tan Family came out. They hadn’t had a chance to speak when they returned, now finally informed.

Qi Hao laughed warmly, "I’ll be an uncle; mother, will they be nieces?"

"I don’t know, they’re just two little ones." Su Yuanyuan hopes for two little girls, as girls are indeed more affectionate.

Everyone’s face bore smiles, even Qi Yan’s seldom seen smile appeared.
