Battle Through the Heavens: Starting with Cao Ying as an apprentice

Next up was the mischievous Zi Yan, who tried to resist but was instantly suppressed;

Then came the enthusiastic Xuan Yi, the gentle Cao Ying, and the kind Liu Muxi…

Su Baichen, like an emperor conquering all directions, advanced step by step, and city after city fell one after another.

This is not a battle; every encounter is an emotional sublimation; every conquest is a testament to the deep love between us.

This earth-shattering "battle" lasted for two days and two nights.

As the last rays of sunlight streamed through the window and fell upon the bed, Jin Xue'er, exhausted, collapsed into Su Baichen's arms and fell into a deep sleep.

Big win.

Inside the room, twelve stunning beauties lay sprawled among the brocade quilts, breathing evenly, their faces flushed with contentment and peace.

Looking at the beauties in his arms, Su Baichen felt no weariness, only endless fulfillment and satisfaction.

He gently tucked them in, kissed their foreheads, and whispered, "It's so good to have you all."

With this profound happiness in his heart, the man who stood at the pinnacle of the continent fell into a deep sleep for the first time without any defenses, a childlike smile on his lips.

Contrary to outside speculation, Su Baichen did not go into seclusion to cultivate diligently after his wedding. Instead, he displayed remarkable "diligence".

Whenever Lady Cailin, Lady Xuanyi, Lady Ziyan were defeated due to exhaustion and declared a truce, five beautiful figures would always fill the gap in time.

It was Ya Fei, Yao Ling, Yao Shi Yu, Huo Zhi, and Fairy Huo Ling.

Su Baichen accepted all the maids who had already developed feelings for him and wanted to serve him in bed.

Just as Cai Lin said on the eve of her wedding: "Husband, if the Su family wants to prosper, it is not enough for just a few of us. This is a major event that concerns the future of the Su family for thousands of years."

Su Baichen wholeheartedly agreed.

Although the Su family now has two genius children, Su Ling'er and Su Mu, to support them, this population size is rather meager for a Dou Di who aspires to conquer the stars and the sea.

"It seems that for the prosperity of the family, I, as your husband, will have to work even harder," Su Baichen said, and then resolutely threw himself into the great cause of the "baby-making plan."

Several months later, good news kept coming from within the White Dust Realm, and a rich vitality and auspicious aura enveloped the entire palace.

The first to conceive a dragon's child was none other than the fiery, domineering leader of the Pill Tower—Xuan Yi.

As she stroked her still flat but pregnant belly, her eyes, usually so strong, were filled with tenderness and maternal love.

As Su Baichen's earliest confidante, she was never able to bear him any children.

In the past, she often secretly envied Cai Lin for holding Su Ling'er and Liu Muxi for holding Su Mu's hand.

Now, this weight has finally been lifted. She can finally stand tall and be a true mother.

Following this, a series of good news arrived in quick succession:

Cai Die, Cao Ying, Zi Yan, Xiao Yi Xian, Yun Yun... all found out they were pregnant.

The most shocking thing is Medusa Queen's Rainbow Scales.

This snake-woman queen is pregnant again after giving birth to Su Ling'er!

When the news spread, the most excited people in the entire White Dust Realm were not Su Baichen, but the two mischievous children who were about to become older siblings.

Su Ling'er excitedly ran around the palace: 【Great! I'm finally going to have a younger brother or sister! I'll have so much to play with!】

Su Mu, looking weary, stroked a non-existent beard: "Brother, or rather, sister, you're finally here! Do you know how I've been all these years? Come and share my burden!"

Looking at the increasingly protruding bellies of the concubines in the harem, Su Baichen felt a great sense of responsibility.

After finally managing to deal with everyone's pleading and "surrounding" attempts, he stepped aside and turned his attention to the entire continent.

At this moment, as Su Baichen's realm stabilized, a brand new "Dou Di Yuan Qi" that was even more concentrated than that of the ancient emperor's cave was drawn out by him from the upper realm and spread throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent.

This source energy is enough to create several more Dou Di!

On the ancient dragon island of Taixu, Zhu Kun stood atop the mountain, watching the surging Origin Qi, and made a decisive choice—to abandon the Emperor Pill and directly refine the Origin Qi of the Dou Di.

"Roar--!"

With a dragon's roar that shook the heavens, Zhu Kun's bones crackled and popped. Originally a late-stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng, he naturally broke through his shackles under the cleansing of Origin Qi, becoming the third native Dou Di of the Dou Qi Continent after Su Baichen!

In the ancient clan, Su Baichen personally presented the precious Emperor Pill to his father-in-law, Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan did not refuse. After taking the Emperor Pill, with the help of the combined effects of the medicine and the source energy, he also helped the ancient clan usher in their own Dou Di.

As for Jin Xueer, she proactively slowed down her breakthrough process for the safety of the fetus in her womb.

She decided to wait until the child was safely born and her physique was stable before attempting to break through to the Emperor Realm, and Su Baichen expressed his full support for this decision.

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

Years later, accompanied by loud cries, Su Baichen's children were all born safely.

Within the White Dust Realm, the sounds of children playing rose and fell. Su Ling'er, along with a group of younger brothers and sisters, transformed this once lofty divine realm into a lively and joyful paradise.

Su Baichen kept his promise and temporarily put aside his cultivation to spend time with his family and enjoy these rare years of family bliss.

Chapter 449 Extra: Qinglin

A few days before the grand wedding, in the White Dust Realm.

The hall was brightly lit with candles and filled with the fragrance of incense. Cai Lin leaned against the soft couch, casually twirling a strand of hair with her fingertips, but her gaze remained fixed on Qing Lin, who stood quietly beside her.

She found this child in the desert.

At that time, Qinglin was thin and bony, his eyes filled with fear and dread.

Over the years, she has helped me manage affairs and mediate between various parties, handling countless official matters for me.

Cai Lin knew in her heart that without Qing Lin, she would never be so composed.

"Qinglin." She suddenly spoke, her voice as gentle as flowing water in the night:

"You've been following me for so long, is there anything you want?"

Upon hearing this, Qinglin immediately raised her eyes, her gaze clear and firm, and shook her head: "My life was saved by Madam, and everything Qinglin has already belonged to Madam."

Cai Lin listened helplessly, sighing inwardly: [This child is too honest; he can't hide even the slightest bit of cunning in his heart.]

She hesitated for a moment, then suddenly laughed, her tone as if she were just saying it casually: "How about this, I think you're not getting any younger, you can't keep following me around forever."

“It’s time for you to settle down. I’ll find you a good marriage, and that will put my mind at ease.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qinglin's expression changed drastically. He shook his head repeatedly, his voice filled with obvious fear: "No! I don't want to get married, and I don't want to leave Madam! I just want to stay by Madam's side forever!"

Cai Lin's smile deepened, and with a swift movement, she appeared before Qing Lin like a wisp of smoke.

The two were so close that they could see each other's reflections in their eyes.

She lowered her voice, a hint of mockery in it: "You really just want to stay by my side?"

The last syllable rose slightly: "You don't... have any other thoughts?"

Qinglin froze, her face turning deathly pale. She hurriedly knelt on the ground, her forehead almost touching the cold floor: "No! I had no other intentions! Qinglin has absolutely no intention of overstepping her bounds towards you, sir! I only wish to serve you, madam!"

Cai Lin straightened up, feigning a sigh, but her gaze quietly fell on Qing Lin's wrist—where her Azure Scale Serpent had originally been coiled.

She said, as if talking to herself, "It seems that what your master told you is not quite the same? Did you make a mistake and give false information?"

Before the words were finished, a streak of emerald light shot out from Qinglin's sleeve and flew out the window in a thin arc.

A faint, serpentine voice drifted through the air: "Oh no! The snake's been sold! My life is at stake! Get out of here!"

Qinglin stared blankly at her empty wrist, then, recalling Madam's words, a thought exploded in her mind like a thunderbolt—[There's a traitor! That disloyal snake Xiaobi actually went to Madam to tell on me behind my back! What did she say?!]

Cai Lin admired the ever-changing expression on her face, and slowly added, "Well, if what Xiao Bi said is true, I would be happy to oblige. After all, it's better to keep the good stuff in the family."

"But seeing how resistant you are now, you must have no feelings for my husband at all..."

She paused deliberately, then sighed with feigned regret: "Never mind, I'll look for someone else then."

"I am willing!"

Qinglin suddenly looked up, her voice not loud, but so clear it was startling.

Her cheeks were flushed like the sunset, but her eyes shone with an astonishing brightness, like a bird that had finally broken free of its shackles.

Cai Lin feigned surprise and leaned closer: "Huh? What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."

Qinglin took a deep breath, as if she had used up all her courage, closed her eyes, and almost shouted, "I do! I do want to marry you, sir! Please grant my wish, madam!"

After shouting, she felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she knelt limply on the ground, her ears burning with shame.

Cai Lin finally smiled with satisfaction and reached out to help her up: "Not bad, you know what's good for you. Come to my room at midnight tonight."

Qinglin nodded dazedly, "Yes, Madam..."

"Still calling me Madam?" Cai Lin raised an eyebrow.

Qinglin was taken aback, and it took her a while to react before her voice was barely audible: "...Sister."

Outside the hall, the night breeze swept through the corridors, and the candlelight flickered gently.

The green-scaled snake that escaped is probably hiding in some corner, thankful that it has survived.

…………

As night deepened, Cai Lin pulled Su Baichen into the inner room, gently tapping his chest with her fingertip, her expression unusually serious: "Let me tell you, you are not allowed to remove your blindfold today, and you are not allowed to use your soul power to spy on me—if you break the rules, you'll be in big trouble."

Su Baichen waved his hand casually, a playful smile curving his lips: "I know, so why are you being so mysterious? What's the surprise?"

"You said you'd give me a big surprise. If you just do a half-hearted job, I'll definitely teach you a lesson."

Cai Lin covered her mouth and chuckled, a sly glint in her eyes: "Don't worry, it will definitely be a surprise."

She led him to the bedside and personally tied the silk ribbon covering his eyes, her movements gentle yet leaving no room for refusal.

Su Baichen felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and his senses were instantly amplified—the soft rustling of fabric, the faint scent of snake orchid in the incense.

Not long after, the mattress dipped slightly, and someone cautiously approached him.

The familiar scent lingering around Su Baichen's nose led him to assume it was Cai Lin, so he leaned over without hesitation and kissed her with his usual aggressiveness.

However—halfway through, his movements suddenly stopped.

The texture doesn't feel right.

The person beneath her had a smaller frame, a more slender waist, and skin that exuded a coolness unlike that of the colorful scales.

Even more noticeable was her body fragrance—no longer the intense and alluring snake orchid from Cai Lin's body, but a clear and cool fragrance like bamboo, carrying a faint, refreshing scent.
