Chapter 143 Mother in law is Celestial phoneix?

March 19th, 2023.

Zhang Wei eagerly prepared himself for another exciting day, filled with anticipation as he got dressed to pay a visit to Lin Ruoxi.

Although his original plan was to see her early in the morning, the slight delay only heightened his excitement.

Meanwhile, as Zhang Wei was getting ready, Yu Lei was also preparing for her day at the company. After integrating her bloodline, her very essence seemed to have transformed.

Although there were no noticeable changes in her physical appearance, her aura radiated a newfound confidence.

Her skin appeared smoother, creating a subtle glow, while her hair shimmered with an increased level of luster.

=====

Status:-

Name: Yu Lei

Age: 25

Body Rank: Mortal

Cultivation Level: None —> Initial stage of Qi Gathering realm

Bloodline: None —> Vermillion Phoenix

Spirit beast: None

Cultivation talent: Mundane —> Divine

Spiritual root rank: Divine

======

'Her talent directly increased to divine?' Zhang Wei asked with curiosity as he peeked at her new status.

[Host, spiritual roots and talent generally can't be changed. The only way to increase a person's talent is by possessing a superior Bloodline. As for spiritual roots, there is currently no way to increase them. However, through a forbidden procedure, you can swap the spiritual roots of two entities], replied the system.

'Oh,' Zhang Wei was surprised by the swapping of spiritual roots.

Doesn't it mean it's similar to heart transplants?

]Host, don't think of swapping spiritual roots. It's the cruelest punishment you can ever give to any cultivator, stripping them away of their spiritual roots], warned the system.

'Why are you telling me this?' asked Zhang Wei, wondering why the system was bothered by it. Did it think Zhang Wei was going to swap Feng Xinyue's Heavenly rank roots for Yu Lei's?



If so, Zhang Wei never considered doing that. He felt that divine was enough.

[The original Vermillion phoenix has a heavenly rank spiritual root. The warning was just to caution the host not to try catching her merely for this reason. It's not as easy as catching a bird, especially with the host's current strength.]

Zhang Wei's brows rose. 'Do you always need to remind me how weak I am? It's not like I don't cultivate, but simply the qi is too thin here. I can't level up in just a few days.'

While cursing the system, Zhang Wei remembered something. 'System, didn't you say there was only Feng Xinyue with Heavenly spiritual roots? How does this Vermillion phoenix also have that?'

[Host, I didn't account for mythical beasts in it. Among mythical beasts, there are many with such peculiar characteristics, but they normally don't come out of their territories. By the way, host, Feng Xinyue is descended from the original celestial phoenix.]

'What?' Zhang Wei spoke, unable to process.

Did he hear something wrong, especially the last part?

[Host, your mother-in-law should be the Celestial phoenix. Be careful in the future. She was used by the Sky god to give birth to superior children, but even after two attempts, she was unable to provide him with a worthy son for his legacy. So both Feng Xinyue and Feng Ruoyan are her direct descendants. Normally, mythical beasts don't give birth as they are immortal, so you have stumbled upon a treasure with Feng Xinyue unknowingly, but also a potential time bomb.]

Zhang Wei nodded, contemplating whether the system was warning him against the Vermillion phoenix or subtly encouraging him to capture her.

After all, he would have never known about the Vermillion phoenix's heavenly spiritual roots if the system hadn't revealed it to him.

But it was Zhang Wei's own mind that always found a way to twist things towards evil.

As for Feng Xinyue being a descendant of a phoenix, it only fueled his desire to grow stronger and unleash his true power. As for her being a potential time bomb, he didn't care.

After all, he was already at odds with her sister, and now he might as well have an angry mother-in-law on his back. It wasn't like she wouldn't end up in his bed eventually.

It was just a matter of time.

If the system's newfound revelation wasn't enough, Zhang Wei soon stumbled upon a peculiar scene. One creature, Yu Lei, was carefully observing another creature, Feng Xinyue, with intense scrutiny. Yu Lei would occasionally poke her cheeks, excitement lighting up her eyes.

"Can you please leave her alone?" Zhang Wei urged, feeling a twinge of concern.

"No," Yu Lei stubbornly denied, not even bothering to look at him.

Zhang Wei let out a sigh, realizing he may have made a mistake by exposing Feng Xinyue to Yu Lei. Now, he knew he had to be even more cautious with his precious "Little milk factory."

Zhang Wei wasn't just sharing his bed with Yu Lei; he had also bought Feng Xinyue, requiring her Yin essence extraction at night.

However, Yu Lei's curiosity about the title of Celestial Princess led him to ask the system to remove the illusion surrounding Feng Xinyue, eager to see her true appearance.

The result was expected. To Yu Lei, it seemed as though she had discovered a magnificent spirit beast in the form of Feng Xinyue.

Of course, the little Nizi, furious and protective of herself, didn't allow Yu Lei to even touch her. However, due to exhaustion from Zhang Wei's extraction of her Yin essence earlier in the night, Feng Xinyue was now peacefully asleep, unaware of Yu Lei's intentions.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Lei fully immersed herself in observing the slumbering beauty.

"Hey, Zhang Wei," she called out, her eyes fluttering with curiosity, "... Would our daughter be just as adorable as her?" Yu Lei asked, her voice filled with anticipation.

Zhang Wei furrowed his brows, his mind racing to catch up, only to have a sudden revelation.

'So she's not interested in Yue, but rather our future daughter?'

However, another wave of confusion washed over him, "Why a daughter?" he mused, settling onto the bed with a hint of curiosity.

Naturally, he had never given Yu Lei much choice in the matter. He had never planned on allowing her to have a son. Yet, he hadn't shared this idea with her, so how had she arrived at this conclusion on her own?

Yu Lei's head bobbed with a sense of certainty, her words flowing effortlessly, "So you would love our daughter just as much as you love me...?" Her head tilted to the side, a flicker of doubt passing through her puzzled expression. She wondered if she had said something wrong, and why Zhang Wei was looking at her with such a strange gaze.

Her eyes blinked twice, unable to conceal her confusion.

"..."

Zhang Wei was left speechless, his hand automatically reaching up to pat his head in a feeble attempt to process what was happening. A stiff smile adorned his lips as he couldn't help but wonder, 'What really goes on in her head?'

Of course, he knew the answer already. It was him. She seemed to only think about him.

But this terrifying conclusion was not one Zhang Wei was ready to accept.

It felt as though he had entered her mind, only to be greeted by an overwhelming display of his own portraits hung everywhere.

It was terrifying to think that perhaps a narcissist would revel in such a sight, but it was not his cup of tea.

Regardless of his inner turmoil, Zhang Wei let out a resigned sigh, preparing to make his exit from the room early. However, Yu Lei halted him in his tracks, extending a file towards him.

Zhang Wei's eyebrows rose in surprise. The last time she had brought him a file, it had marked the beginning of trouble for him.

"What is this, Yu Lei?" he asked, attempting to maintain a gentle smile, while inwardly hoping that it was not something absurd.

Yu Lei responded matter-of-factly, "It's a contract to transfer shares. I had it drafted by the lawyer yesterday. With this, you can have all the shares of Lin Group under your name."

...

Her voice had a profound impact on Zhang Wei, causing him to reassess his perception of her. Suddenly, his eyes shimmered with a newfound light, as he contemplated, 'Maybe she is not as troublesome as I thought.'

He had actually intended to draft a similar document himself, but had never found the time to do so. He had planned to address it once Lin Ruoxi's training had been completed.

However, it seemed that Yu Lei had already taken the initiative.

She hadn't been slacking off in her duties.

She had efficiently handled everything in advance.

Her level of preparedness made him question whether she had been pretending all along.

Despite his initial doubts, Zhang Wei rewarded her with a warm embrace.

However, once she had wrapped her arms around him, she seemed unwilling to let go.

It took him quite some time to eventually extricate himself from her grasp.

As he walked towards the front door, he couldn't help but cast an interested glance at Guo Xiaomei.

Surprisingly, she had seemingly grown accustomed to their presence and showed no resistance or curiosity regarding Lin Ruoxi.

This left Zhang Wei slightly perplexed.

Little did he know that cultivators generally didn't leave witnesses alive after kidnapping someone. Often, they would eliminate them to ensure no trace was left.

Zhang Wei's assurance of returning Lin Ruoxi safely had become the final straw that convinced Guo Xiaomei.
