Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1840: Chapter 1840: Birth

Chu Hanqing didn’t know what to say. Watching the woman quietly sitting on one side reading the alchemy books, he turned and left.

Back in his room, a steward reported what happened during the time he was away.

He really was speechless about Wei Lingyun.

From the first meeting, he didn’t favor Wei Lingyun among the sisters. What did she imagine herself to be? Beggars can’t be choosers?

He gave some instructions and busied himself with his own affairs.

Wei Lingyun only found out the pavilion master had returned a few days later.

She approached the steward wanting to meet the pavilion master.

"The pavilion master said he’s not seeing anyone. And don’t make things ugly, it’s disgraceful."

Wei Lingyun felt her face burn; was this a warning? Was she being looked down upon?

In fact, this was truly a very humiliating situation. If her cousin weren’t involved, she might not feel as embarrassed. After all, he was the Immortal Emperor and also the pavilion master of Treasure Pavilion.

But with her cousin having been his woman before her, now she was being rejected.

Returning to her room, Wei Lingyun’s expression was already distorted. Why did it happen this way? What was wrong with her?

In the lower realm, the elders in the family always prioritized her cousin. Over the years, even the cultivators and elders were the same, even Su Yuanyuan who shared laughs with her cousin was very cold towards her.

She worked especially hard, wanting everyone’s recognition and hoping someone would care about her. Therefore, she never fell behind in cultivation.

Sisters ascending together was such great glory.

She believed she wasn’t behind her cousin in terms of cultivation or alchemy. Why did everyone treat her like this?

The more she thought, the more desolate she felt, but it didn’t matter, not being esteemed was fine, she still clung to Tan Qihong, thinking there would surely be a chance in the future. Her cousin had no chance at all. Who knows what might happen in the future?

Tan Qihong’s potential was unmatched; he was surely going to succeed.

Wei Lingyun kept comforting herself. It was the only way not to go crazy.

At night, she couldn’t cultivate no matter what. The next day, she went to the Wei Family.

This time, the array was tightly closed; she knocked on the array, and eventually Meteor came out.

"Senior, I want to see Senior Su."

"I don’t know; when you knocked, only I came out, they must all be in seclusion." Wei Lingyun was helpless. She wasn’t coming over to see Su Yuanyuan originally, but now since she couldn’t meet her, she couldn’t make any moves, fearing she’d be disliked and unable to make amends later.

Inside the room, Su Yuanyuan could hear Wei Lingyun’s thoughts and found them truly unpleasant.

Perhaps it would be indifferent if it concerned others, but her imagination involved her son, which was different.

As they ascended from the same realm, she didn’t want to openly rupture the relationship, and decided not to meet her in the future.

Wei Lingyun came again a month later; this time, she didn’t even enter the array.

She wasn’t foolish; in fact, she was quite scheming, realizing Tan Family members didn’t wish to see her.

Hatred surged immeasurably within her heart. How could they treat her like this? Why did they treat her this way?

Suddenly, a voice echoed beside her ear "Do you want to obtain Tan Qihong?"

This voice kept reverberating in her ear, slowing Wei Lingyun’s pace, how could she not want him, she dreamed of it.

"As long as you agree, let me control your body, and I’ll help you obtain Tan Qihong."

The voice was very soft and seductive. Initially, Wei Lingyun struggled against it. But the voice didn’t change, relentlessly echoing in her ear.

Ultimately, she inexplicably agreed. She felt as if her body had become light, ethereal. Suddenly, her divine soul was imprisoned, and it was impossible to break free.

Now Wei Lingyun was anxious. But she couldn’t escape no matter what. She attempted to control her body, but it was beyond her control.

She felt her divine soul was gradually weakening. Terrified, she didn’t dare to struggle.

She could only watch as her body was controlled by another.

Wei Lingyun’s divine soul could perceive everything happening outside but couldn’t resist or control.

She gazed at her body returning to the Treasure Pavilion, heading directly to see Wei Lingxi.

The other divine soul inside her body laughed heartily "What a pure body. I like it."

Wei Lingyun realized, was it talking about Wei Lingxi’s child?

Suddenly, she didn’t want to stop it.

"Haha, aren’t you terribly jealous of your cousin? No worries, I’ll help you. Whatever you dislike, I’ll eliminate, and what you desire, I’ll help you obtain."

Wei Lingyun said nothing.

Wei Lingxi was cultivating, Wei Lingyun couldn’t enter, making her quite unhappy.

"It seems you’re really not well-received."

Wei Lingyun withdrew, he could say whatever he wanted.

Three years later, Su Yuanyuan was staying with Chen Xue Man, not going anywhere or cultivating.

Her belly was already very large, knowing it wouldn’t be long until she gave birth.

Qi Yan was the same, unable to do anything but stay by his wife’s side.

Honestly, the child was important, but a wife was indispensable.

Chen Rushi was no longer excited, only nervous left.

The Tan Family members were quite nervous but didn’t show it, fearing Chen Xue Man would become more anxious.

This tense atmosphere persisted for more than half a year, and this day Chen Xue Man went into labor.

Everyone was on high alert; the child in Chen Xue Man’s womb was notably domineering, especially since there were three. She’s managed over ten years, which was quite commendable.

Qi Yan and Su Yuanyuan mother and son were inside.

"Don’t be afraid, it’s alright."

Qi Yan held his wife’s hand, continuously communicating with the children.

Su Yuanyuan had some experience, but still felt she couldn’t be of much help.

Thanks to Qi Yan’s communication, the children were much calmer.

Thus, Chen Xue Man wouldn’t suffer as much.

After the first child was born, a thunderous clap was heard outside.

"Is there an anomaly? Qi Yan, you take care of Xueman, I’ll go have a look."

"Mom, be careful."

Su Yuanyuan instantly appeared outside, observing the sky almost pressing down.

She couldn’t tell if it was an anomaly or divine punishment, but it looked truly terrifying.

Su Yuanyuan stood straight, staring fixedly.

Tan Shaoting appeared by his wife’s side. "I think it looks like divine punishment."

"Nothing matters unless it harms our children, otherwise I’ll defy the heavens."

Chen Rushi was next to them, ready to stand in front, no matter what.

A second crying sound came from the room. At this moment, heavenly thunder directly struck towards the room.

Tan Shaoting’s Divine Punishment Sword swung out, colliding with the descending thunder.

Chen Rushi’s sword arrived as well. Although the heavenly thunder was terrifying, it would never thwart their determination to protect the children.
