An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad

Chapter 101

“Ah!”

Crack! Crack!

Li Hao lifted his foot in satisfaction after Li Junfeng’s face was bloody and the prison floor was covered in bloodstains.

“The feeling of trampling someone underfoot is really great! But Li Junfeng, don’t pass out, there’s still a good show to come! Hehe!”

Saying this, Li Hao walked into the adjacent cell.

Inside was one of Li Junfeng’s concubines.

“Ah! Li Hao, damn you! I’ll kill you, Li Hao! Bastard!” Li Junfeng, lying on the ground, cursed loudly.

Even though his teeth were knocked out and his speech was unclear, the sound of his grief and indignation was piercing.

At this time, in a dark, unseen corner of the dungeon, Yang Chen’s lips curled into a playful smile.

“Hao’er, you are indeed a pervert Even more perverted than me! Truly surpassing your teacher! But since you like to play so much, let me give you something more exciting! Hehe!”

Yang Chen flicked his finger, and a beam of light entered Li Junfeng’s body.

Then, Li Junfeng, who was lying on the ground, stood up.

The seals on his body were undone, and his weak aura rapidly strengthened.

“Li Hao, I’m going to tear you apart!”

“Li Junfeng, you! How is this possible? Ah! Li Junfeng, I’m sorry!”

Crack!

“Help!”

A series of miserable cries echoed through the dungeon.

However, Li Hao had previously ordered that no one was to enter no matter what sounds were heard.

Additionally, the dungeon was excellently soundproofed. Even the fluctuations of spiritual energy could not be sensed outside.

Yang Chen did not watch Li Hao’s misery. He silently left the dungeon. Returning to Zhao Shirou’s palace.

“Hmm! Husband!” Zhao Shirou murmured, turning over. Although she was asleep, her cheeks were flushed, and the charm in her eyes was fully displayed.

Yang Chen’s lips curled into a playful smile.

“Hao’er, you can go in peace! I will take good care of your mother and brother! Hehe!”

***

The next day, At dawn.

The system’s voice echoed in Yang Chen’s mind:

[Ding! The host has killed the Protagonist, Li Hao, and has received a gift pack!]

Yang Chen was stunned.

What the heck, how many hours had passed? He had even slept! Was Hao’er only dying now? Didn’t that mean he suffered all night? Oh my, Hao’er, Hao’er, you wouldn’t blame your father, would you? It wasn’t intentional. After all, who could have known that Li Junfeng was so perverse, tormenting you the whole night?

But Hao’er, even though you died, it was worthwhile; the gift pack is a good thing. With the system’s reward, I can better protect your mother and brother. Rest in peace in the underworld. Hehe.

“Open the gift pack!” Yang Chen commanded in a low voice.

[Ding! Gift pack opened successfully! The host has obtained a Nine-Colored Poria!]

Hmm?

Yang Chen was astonished.

Nine-Colored Poria?

It’s actually nine-colored!

This is a legendary item!

Poria, a spiritual herb that could nurture a cultivator’s soul, was already precious! Ordinary Poria only has one color. However, among Poria, there can occasionally be a King Poria.

The medicinal effect of a King Poria is a hundred times that of an ordinary Poria. And for every hundred cycles of sixty years that a King Poria grows, it undergoes a lightning tribulation. After the lightning tribulation, if it survives, it gains another color. And Nine-Colored Poria, has grown for at least fifty thousand years and undergone eight lightning tribulations!

According to records in the Xuantian Sect’s history. Tens of thousands of years ago, a sect master who had reached the Tenth stage of the Soul Transformation realm but couldn’t break through to the Void Refinement realm.

Later, he accidentally obtained a Six-Colored Poria.

As a result, he smoothly broke through and reached the Void Refinement realm, dominating the Northern Spiritual Realm for thousands of years.

Afterward, this sect master even left the Northern Spiritual Realm for the Central Continent!

If a Six-Colored Poria had such a miraculous effect, then a Nine-Colored Poria would be even more extraordinary! For a cultivator’s soul, this is a once-in-a-lifetime holy item!

Yang Chen’s cultivation progress had been rapid recently, reaching the Eight stage of the Nascent Soul realm. He wasn’t far from the Soul Transformation realm.

However, his soul power had not kept up. Breaking through to the Soul Transformation realm required cultivating the Nascent Soul, which was the soul power.

Only by condensing the Nascent Spirit and communicating with heaven and earth could one break through to the Soul Transformation realm.

This step had stumped countless cultivators. In the Northern Spiritual Realm, there were many forces with cultivators at the Tenth stage of the Nascent Soul realm. However, few managed to break through to the Soul Transformation realm.

Most cultivators at the Tenth stage of the Nascent Soul realm found it difficult to successfully condense their Nascent Spirit in their lifetime.

They ultimately died of old age.

But once they crossed this step, it was like a fish leaping into the sea, a bird soaring into the sky, entering another world.

This was also why Li Tengshan spent so much effort, over hundreds of years, nurturing Zhao Shirou as a furnace.

To break through from the Nascent Soul to the Soul Transformation realm, one must cross a chasm. And now, with the Nine-Colored Poria.

Yang Chen didn’t need to deliberately cultivate his soul power. The Nine-Colored Poria could continuously nourish and enhance his soul. When the time came to break through to the Soul Transformation realm, there would be no barriers for him.

Sitting cross-legged, Yang Chen looked at the small flower with nine colors in his hand, covered by a natural seal. It isolated the astonishing soul power of the Nine-Colored Poria.

Once the seal was removed. Suddenly, an immense soul power enveloped Yang Chen. Nine-colored light burst forth. The light almost felt tangible.

Then, the Nine-Colored Poria directly entered Yang Chen’s soul palace in his mind. The soul palace was the most secret and important place for a cultivator. The Nascent Soul resided there.

The Nine-Colored Poria directly took root in Yang Chen’s soul palace, rendering the entire palace in nine colors. The nine leaves of the Nine-Colored Poria began to spread.

The red leaf seemed to flow with fire.

The blue leaf seemed to form ice.

The silver leaf resembled countless sword rays traversing.

The black leaf was like a black hole, emitting a deep glow.

Each color of the Nine-Colored Poria represents a different soul attribute.

This is what made it most precious.

The nine-colored light filled the soul palace, and Yang Chen felt his soul power growing at a visible rate.

Moreover, the nine soul powers with different attributes from the Nine-Colored Poria, born of heaven and earth, refined through numerous lightning tribulations over millennia, were extremely pure.

They not only enhanced Yang Chen’s soul power but also continually refined it. This was a qualitative enhancement.

In the future, when he broke through to the Soul Transformation realm, the Nascent Spirit he condensed would be extraordinary!

“Brother Chen!” Beside him, Zhao Shirou’s soft voice made Yang Chen open his eyes.

“Brother Chen, such powerful soul power!” Zhao Shirou’s body was also radiant. In the palace, the soul power released by the Nine-Colored Poria was absorbed by her as well. Her charming face had an intoxicated look.

“Rou’er, I just opened a treasure I got before! It contains a large amount of pure soul power! It can help us both enter the Soul Transformation realm without any barriers!”

Upon hearing Yang Chen’s words, Zhao Shirou was stunned.

“Enter the Soul Transformation realm without any barriers? What kind of heavenly treasure has such an effect?”

“Rou’er, hold me tightly!” Yang Chen suddenly said.

“You’re annoying!”

Zhao Shirou coquettishly said, then wrapped her jade arms around Yang Chen’s neck. Her delicate body clung to him.

“Ah!” Zhao Shirou exclaimed.
