#434 - I want to adopt them as my adopted daughters!

Chapter 434: I want to adopt them as honorary daughters!

Zhao Tiankuo felt a chill run down his spine, a lingering fear.

Fortunately, the Old Ancestor appeared in time; otherwise, if he had really acted, he would have been utterly beyond redemption!

Chixinzi said, "You immediately summon all female cultivators within our territory who possess spiritual root talent. The higher the talent, the better. Of course, their looks must also be good; no ugly ones!"

"Ah?"

Zhao Tiankuo's mouth widened, his face full of astonishment.

What did the Old Ancestor suddenly want so many female cultivators for, and not only those with good qualifications but also beautiful ones?

Could it be that the Old Ancestor was really practicing some kind of evil art, extracting yin to supplement yang…

Zhao Tiankuo's thoughts ran wild.

Pa!

He was slapped on the back of the head again, and Zhao Tiankuo landed face-first on the ground, his nose, which had just stopped bleeding, gushing blood again.

Zhao Tiankuo wanted to cry but had no tears.

I didn't say anything, why the beating again?

Chixinzi knew from this guy's expression that he wasn't thinking good things, and he snorted coldly, "Do as I say. Later, call all the clan elders over; I have something to tell them!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Tiankuo retreated pitifully.

Soon, the high-level members of the Zhao family gathered in the secret chamber.

As an extremely powerful family force in the Central Region, standing for such a long time, the Zhao family's foundation is naturally needless to say.

There were six Tribulation Transcension stage cultivators alone, and more than thirty Integration stage cultivators. At this moment, all of them were gathered here.

Chixinzi naturally sat in the main seat, his gaze sweeping over everyone with a cold look.

The others looked at Zhao Tiankuo, whose face was a mess and looked pitiful, with some surprise, not knowing why the head of the family was in such a state.

"Family Head, who beat you like this? So ruthless!"

Someone asked.

"That's right, daring to touch someone from our Zhao family, and the Family Head at that, isn't that courting death!"

"Family Head, you can't swallow this anger. This is not just hitting your face, but the face of our entire Zhao family. You tell us, and I will kill his entire family, ensuring that not even a kun is left!"

The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, shouting one after another.

Zhao Tiankuo's face turned black.

Kill his entire family?

Then you should kill yourself first!

Chixinzi said, "Tiankuo was beaten by me. Who among you wants to avenge him?"

The expressions of the crowd froze, and the entire secret chamber was silent.

After a moment, the crowd shouted one after another, "The Old Ancestor beat him well. The Family Head must have been disobedient; he was beaten too lightly!"

"Beaten well, beaten wonderfully, the Family Head was beaten until he howled!"

"Old Ancestor, you didn't beat him symmetrically. How about I come and help? One here too?"

Hearing that it was the Old Ancestor who did it, the attitude of the crowd suddenly changed greatly, and their spearheads all pointed at Zhao Tiankuo, as if the other party had really done something that angered both heaven and man.

Zhao Tiankuo's face turned green with anger.

I am, after all, the Family Head, don't I deserve any respect?

"Enough nonsense!"

Chixinzi waved his hand and looked at Zhao Tiankuo, saying, "How is the matter I asked you to handle?"

Zhao Tiankuo quickly turned his hand over and took out a jade slip, handing it over, saying, "This is the family tree, including the collateral lines. All the bloodline branches are recorded within. I have already subdivided them, and all the female cultivators who meet the requirements are listed separately. Please take a look, Old Ancestor!"

Chixinzi nodded in satisfaction.

It must be said that Zhao Tiankuo's efficiency and ability in handling affairs are impeccable; otherwise, he would not have been appointed as the Family Head.

The others were confused.

What female cultivators who meet the requirements?

What does the Old Ancestor want female cultivators for?

Chixinzi sank his divine sense into the jade slip and examined it carefully, his brow slightly raised.

The family has developed and grown so much over such a long period, and the descendants born are naturally extremely numerous, even the direct bloodline has a lot.

Including the collateral lines, the entire Zhao family has a population of over one million.

This is still because the cultivation resources are limited, deliberately controlling the population. After all, as long as they are from the Zhao family, they will receive a considerable amount of cultivation resources even if they do nothing, which adds up to a huge fortune.

The larger the population, the greater the consumption.

So the larger the family, the more it must control the population.

Otherwise, over so many years, it would be easy for the Zhao family to have a population of over 100 million.

"Two female cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots, one of whom is from the direct line, and the rest are from the collateral lines. Thirty-two female cultivators with earth spiritual roots, nine of whom are from the direct line, and the rest are from the collateral lines…"

Chixinzi narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling emotional in his heart.

Although the family has been passed down for so many years, it is really too rare to have good spiritual root descendants.

Only two heavenly spiritual roots have appeared in so many years!

With a slight frown, Chixinzi opened his eyes and asked, "Are all the female cultivators within the territory here?"

Zhao Tiankuo hesitated and said, "Didn't the Old Ancestor say to only include the female cultivators within the family? There are still many within Gan Prefecture who are not from our family, so I didn't list them."

Chixinzi was silent for a moment.

Sending female cultivators to the Evergreen Alliance is naturally best if they are the family's blood relatives. With this blood bond, the relationship will naturally be different.

"Are there any female cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots or above within the territory?"

Chixinzi asked.

Zhao Tiankuo thought for a moment and said, "There are still three female cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots, and one female cultivator with multi-attribute heavenly spiritual roots!"

Multi-attribute heavenly spiritual root!

Chixinzi's eyes lit up and he said directly, "Good, bring them here immediately! I want to adopt them as honorary daughters!"

Zhao Tiankuo was stunned, and the crowd was even more shocked.

Could it be that the Old Ancestor has some special hobby?

I haven't heard of it for so many years!

Seeing the strange gazes of the crowd, Chixinzi was also a little speechless. Anyway, they still had to know about this matter, so he no longer concealed it and explained, "The vice-leader of the Evergreen Alliance, Qin Changqing, has an extremely special heaven-defying ability…"

He explained the matter once.

After listening, the entire secret chamber was silent.

Everyone was staring at Chixinzi with extremely suspicious eyes.

Old Ancestor, this joke is not funny at all!

Someone can conceive spiritual root descendants?

I wouldn't dare to dream of doing that!

"Old Ancestor, you wouldn't have been bewitched by that Evergreen Alliance, would you?" Someone raised a question.

"That's right, how could there be such a strange person in the world!"

Zhao Tiankuo was also full of disbelief.

Chixinzi's face sank: "Am I joking? Bewitching me! Who in this world can do that! I saw it with my own eyes. There are no fewer than thirty children with immortal spiritual roots in the Celestial Mansion now, and there are many more children with this talent in the Evergreen Alliance!"

Hiss!

Looking at Chixinzi's determined expression, the crowd immediately gasped.

No fewer than thirty children with immortal spiritual roots!

Immortal spiritual roots!

That is the legendary spiritual root talent. The crowd has never even seen it.

Thirty of them suddenly went to the Celestial Mansion, and I'm afraid there is no other explanation except what the Old Ancestor said.

Thinking of this, the expressions of the crowd instantly changed from suspicion to extreme excitement and agitation.

"Old Ancestor, although my granddaughter only has top-grade spiritual roots, she is beautiful. Do you think she can cut in line and arrange it in advance!"

"Old Ancestor, I have an adopted daughter who has earth spiritual roots…"

"You fart, when did you have an adopted daughter who has earth spiritual roots?"

"It's none of your business, I'll have one in a while. The Old Ancestor can adopt them, why can't I!"
