Chen Li called his other wives and fiancées to enter the pagoda, and they were quickly huddled together on the first floor. Even though they were still exhausted after their hard training, they seemed very enthusiastic about dual-cultivating with him, especially since their cultivation was still in the core realm.
Chen Li smiled in amusement at seeing them lying naked side by side on the bed, and neither of them felt embarrassed about it. He then dual-cultivated with them in turns, except for Yun Qing and Su Mengyao, but he supplied them with his yang qi.

Three women sat together in one room, and Luo Yi asked Liu Ying. “Why don’t you join them? Haven’t you been ready to become his wife a long time ago?”
“Yes, but I was embarrassed to join them.” Liu Ying then asked her back. “Aren’t you the same as me?”
“Haha.” Luo Yi laughed awkwardly at his question. “At first, I still felt uncertain about being his wife, but somehow their harmony made me jealous, so I decided to accept my feelings. However, Chen Li was still too focused on his training, so I chose to wait first.”
“En.” Liu Ying also agreed with that, and she herself also chose to wait for Chen Li to be free first. “What about you, Susu?”
“What do you mean?” Song Susu asked Liu Ying back with a raised eyebrow.
“Are you not interested in Chen Li?” Luo Yi asked her. .
Song Susu shook her head. “Even though I’ve lived with him for some time now, our relationship is still so-so, so I don’t have any interest in him yet.”
Hearing her answer, Liu Ying and Luo Yi exchanged glances for a moment, and they were thinking the same thing. ‘I should ask Chen Li to be more active with Susu.’
“What are you two thinking about?” Song Cucu asked them with a look full of suspicion, especially after she saw their strange smiles.
The two women shook their heads at Song Susu. “Nothing.”

Elsewhere, three women were also gathered, but the expressions of two of them were so gloomy. “Why do you two like this? Is there something bothering you guys?”
“Hey, Victoria! Have you ever fallen in love with a man?” Yan Qiu asked her.
Victoria was taken back for a moment. “I’m an angel, and I’m not used to such a feeling, so I don’t know what it’s like to fall in love.”
“Is that true?” Zhao Ying asked with a suspicious look. “You might not realize it, but I often saw you looking at Chen Li, so I thought that you had fallen in love with him.”
“I often looked at Chen Li, but I didn’t fall in love with him.” In fact, Victoria had long felt a strange feeling towards him, especially after he removed the effects of the Lust abilities on her, but she still didn’t understand that feeling.
‘This woman is truly innocent!’ Both women inwardly exclaimed, and Yan Qiu asked Victoria again. “Don’t you want to evolve like Noelle and Sylvia?”
“Your question is really unnecessary, right?” Victoria asked back, shaking her head. “To evolve higher is every angel’s dream, but I won’t depend on humans for that, and I only need to wait for the right time to evolve.”
“Wouldn’t the process take a long time?”
“Yes.” Victoria answered with a nod. “Back then, I wasn’t sure that I would have time to evolve, but I’ve become a cultivator like all of you now, and I can live longer than other angels, so I’m confident that I have a chance to evolve. Anyway, we don’t need to talk about me, and you two can go to the pagoda if you guys are so eager to become his wives.”
Hearing that, Yan Qiu and Zhao Ying’s expressions turned gloomy, especially since Chen Li still maintained a distance from them, even though their relationship had improved a lot now.
Victoria didn’t speak further after she saw their expressions, and she closed her eyes to rest, as they still had to undergo strenuous training for some time to come.

Meanwhile, Feng Bing’er stood alone on a hill in the Tianyi Realm, but her eyes kept looking towards the pagoda, and she also kept sighing to herself.
“Why are you so stubborn, Bing’er?”
“Hmm?” Feng Bing’er turned to Xiao Kong’er, who suddenly appeared behind her. “What do you mean by that?”
Xiao Kong’er shook her head before speaking to him. “We all know that you love Long Wang, and Chen Li is his reincarnation, so you don’t need to hold back your feelings all the time, right?”
“No.” Feng Bing’er immediately denied it. “Even though he is Long Wang’s reincarnation, Chen Li is still a different individual, and I have no interest in him.”
“Humph! Who do you want to lie to?” Xiao Kong’er said that with a soft snort. “We are sisters who have been together for a long time, and I know your character very well. Chen Li is a different individual now, but I know for sure that you are interested in him, or else you have frozen him out after he kissed you.”
Feng Bing’er fell silent after she heard that, but she then let out a sigh. “Perhaps you are right, but I will never accept him unless he only loves me alone.”
“Aren’t you too selfish, Big Sis Bing’er?” Xiao Huoli asked as she appeared beside them. “Chen Li is your big sister’s husband, and they were destined to be together since ancient times, so it’s impossible for you to separate them. Moreover, he also has several other wives now, and your selfishness will hurt their feelings.”
“My feelings are indeed selfish, so I can’t care about their feelings.” Feng Bing’er answered decisively. “Chen Li has to leave them if he wants to get me, or we will never be together.”
After she said that, Feng Bing’er immediately flew away, leaving them behind, causing Xiao Kong’er and Xiao Huoli to sigh helplessly.
“It’s useless for you two to persuade Bing’er to accept our master.” Both women immediately turned to the three other spirit women, and Xiao Hei spoke again. “She is an ice phoenix, so it’s natural that her feelings are cold and selfish, but she’s not that bad either. That’s why she chose to avoid and hide from Long Wang for thousands of years, and she also chose to bury her feelings because she didn’t want to hurt Xian’er and the others’ feelings.”
“I agree with Big Sis Hei.” Xiao Diqiu said as she nodded. “However, I think our master can do something to make Big Sis Bing’er accept him, even if he has to use force to do so.”
Xiao Jianyi joined in. “Our master already has many women, and he also obtained many Jiu Feng techniques, so he should be able to do that. However, he doesn’t seem to intend to use them on Big Sis Bing’er, or else she would have fallen into his arms by now.”
They nodded in agreement with that, but Xiao Kong’er then said to them. “Chen Li might not want to do it now, but he probably will after he obtains Hermit Long’s memories, and Bing’er will definitely fall by then.”
“I hope our master doesn’t become as crazy as Hermit Long, or the situation would be bad if that happened.” Xiao Huoli and Xiao Jianyi agreed with Xiao Diqiu’s words.
Unlike them, Xiao Hei and Xiao Kong’er are not too worried about Hermit Long’s influence on Chen Li, but they are more worried about the influence of Long Wong’s other reincarnation because that one is the worst among all his reincarnations, especially since he didn’t have any human side.

After a long time, Chen Li came out of the pagoda, and he went straight to his mother’s room in the bamboo house area. However, she found Lin Qingzhu knitting baby clothes, and he immediately sat beside her while asking. “Why don’t you sleep and knit instead, Mom?”
“Hehe.” Lin Qingzhu giggled and told him. “Back then, your grandmother knitted baby clothes for you and Meiyi, so I also want to do the same for my grandchildren. However, I’m unsure whether to knit baby clothes for a boy or a girl, especially since we don’t ‘don’t know the gender of your child yet.”
“I see.” Chen Li then embraced Lin Qingzhu. “What if you knit for both genders?”
“I think you’re right.” Lin Qingzhu replied with a nod of approval. “All right, I will knit baby clothes for a boy and a girl.”
Chen Li smiled and whispered to his mother, causing Lin Qingzhu to drop her knitting and look at him with an expression full of surprise, and he rubbed her cheeks while asking. “Are you happy to hear that?”
“Are you serious about that?” Even though Lin Qingzhu asked that, the joy on her face couldn’t be hidden, and she was so elated after hearing the news.
“Yes.” Chen Li nodded at her. “Meiyi has already confirmed it, so I think it’s really true.”
Lin Qingzhu became even more excited after hearing her son’s answer, and she then picked up her knitting from the floor. “If that’s really true, then I should knit more baby clothes, and everything will be ready when your child is born.”
“Ha ha.” Chen Li laughed at her mother’s expression. “Anyway, I want to discuss with you Xing’er and Xian’er’s ideas, but I don’t know if you will agree with their ideas.”
“Hmm? What are their ideas?”
