Eternal Life by Dual Cultivation

Chapter 479: Chapter 268: Su Qinglian: Dual Cultivation Is a Duty, and a Responsibility...

However, this wasn’t set in stone. It also depended on the efforts of the Immortal Seed themselves, as well as the fortuitous encounters they might have while traveling.

If they were diligent enough, or if they had a great stroke of fortune, it wasn’t impossible for them to break through their original Life Chart.

If Ling Changqing chose to favor certain individuals, such as those naturally beautiful Female Cultivators, their Life Chart and Fate would quickly undergo a complete metamorphosis.

Ling Qiyue looked it over, then took a blank Jade Scroll and copied down the names of all the Female Cultivators marked in light gold or higher. There were ninety-four in all.

She then copied the list of Female Cultivators whose names were marked in yellow, a total of two hundred and sixty-three.

"Sister Qiyue? What do you plan to do with these?"

Standing beside her, Tang Qiu Yao blinked and asked, having a faint idea of Ling Qiyue’s intentions.

"Go and make the arrangements. Have all these Female Cultivators brought here so I can have a look at them."

Ling Qiyue said.

"Of course."

Tang Qiu Yao acknowledged the order and left the Inner Study, taking Ling Yulu and Qin Yun along with her.

Before long, more than three hundred young women, led by Tang Qiu Yao, flooded into the Inner Study with apprehensive looks on their faces.

Ling Qiyue looked up, a hint of satisfaction on her face.

The young women were all impressive in both appearance and disposition. With their almond eyes, peach-blossom cheeks, bright eyes, and pearly teeth, it wasn’t rare to find a few truly stunning, Top-Grade beauties among them.

After all, they were the elite selected from trillions of mortal subjects; their qualities in every respect were truly outstanding.

After looking them over, Ling Qiyue gently raised her fair wrist. Thirty fist-sized orbs of brilliant light materialized from thin air, slowly coming to a stop above the heads of thirty of the young women.

Among them were the three who had the potential to reach the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm. Each was a young, devastatingly beautiful woman with an enchanting figure—and all were virgins whose primordial yin remained intact.

"Alright, you will stay. The rest of you may return to your Cultivation."

Ling Qiyue instructed.

The unselected women inevitably looked disappointed. They clearly understood that those who remained would surely receive better treatment.

Once they had left, Ling Qiyue addressed the thirty remaining peerless beauties:

"From now on, you are Ling Changqing’s Maids. Serve him well, and you will all have the chance to reach the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm, or even the Divinity Transformation Realm."

"Yes! We will obey the Patriarch’s command!"

The young women’s fair faces flushed red, but they still bowed and replied in unison.

This move from Ling Qiyue was, of course, to counterbalance the influence of the women from the Liu Ying Clan and Lu Hua Palace. In Ling Changqing’s harem, women from the Ling Family had to be the majority.

...

「In the Inner Garden Flower Hall.」

After taking a few Grade Four Spirit Pills, Ling Changqing’s nearly depleted Essence, Qi, and Spirit rapidly recovered. It wasn’t long before he was back to his Peak state.

"You must be hungry, Husband. Should I have a meal served?"

Ling Bingyun asked softly from his side.

"Yes, please."

Ling Changqing agreed.

Song Xuelan immediately went out to instruct the Maids to prepare everything.

Moments later, a long line of maids in colorful attire entered, carrying magnificent trays. They covered the large banquet table with an array of meticulously cooked exotic delicacies.

These days, the family’s private pantry, reserved exclusively for Ling Changqing, was primarily stocked with Quasi-Rank Four and Rank Four Spirit Beast and Spirit Bird Meat, as well as all sorts of rare mountain treasures, Spirit Fruits, and Spirit Flowers.

Of course, there was also a large amount of Spirit Wine Nectar of various vintages, all brought over by Liu Ying Ziyi and Qin Mengxuan, which filled several storehouses to the brim.

A moment later, Ling Qiyue, Ling Yulu, and Qin Yun had finished their business and were invited over by the Maids.

"Alright, ladies, please take your seats!"

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ling Changqing said warmly.

And so, the women all began to eat. Cups were raised and laughter was shared, creating a truly harmonious atmosphere.

"...Husband, didn’t you say last time that once the Immortal Seed selection was over, you could Dual Cultivate with us?"

Liu Ying Meng Luan spoke up after three rounds of drinks, her beautiful face flushed crimson.

Su Qinglian immediately chimed in. "That’s right! Dual Cultivating with our husband is our responsibility and our duty. You can’t put it off any longer!"

Ling Changqing: "..."
