During his time at home, Shen Wang dispatched You Huang to investigate the situation.

You Huang, originally a Demon Emperor, was perfectly suited to go to Yun Province, where the Demon Race was dominant. Even without showing up himself, he could easily gather information just by ordering his subordinates.

In less than three days, all the details about Yun Province, including the situation of Celestial Travel Sect, were gathered.

Currently, the Celestial Travel Sect is surrounded by the Sixth Prince's forces, and now it's also besieged by the Demon Race army. Compared to the Sixth Prince's siege, which didn't attack, the Demon Race was much more brutal. Even with the protection of large formations, the sect has lost a significant number of people in just one month.

As for Liu Shan whom Shen Wang wanted to find, since the target was too minor, You Huang was still secretly having his underlings search for them.

Before figuring out the situation, Shen Wang didn't act hastily and instead stayed home, consuming Five Elements Pills for cultivation while waiting for news.

He began to focus on helping his fourteen wives improve their cultivation levels, especially Jia'Er, whose cultivation was low.

Through dual cultivation, the cultivation of all the women rapidly increased with Shen Wang's help.

Before receiving news about Liu Shan, Shen Wang first received a piece of good news.

Lan Kui was about to give birth.

Shen Wang was overjoyed by this, as this was the longest gestation period for a child so far.

If Lan Kui hadn't absorbed the essence from the Dragon Pearl, the gestation period could have been extended further.

"Kui Kui's child is finally going to be born."

"Been pregnant for several years, the little one's talent must be extraordinary."

"Kui Kui is a Dragon Girl, so wouldn't this child also have a True Dragon Bloodline?"

"It absolutely will. Who knows, their talent might surpass Jingzhe's."

A group of women chattered excitedly, all happy for Lan Kui.

Lan Kui did not disappoint and successfully gave birth to a chubby baby boy. At birth, the atmospheric water gathered, and a five-colored auspicious light appeared, making this the most dramatic birth among the children.

Shen Wang observed the changes in the sky: "Wind follows the tiger, cloud follows the dragon, this little one's talent is quite impressive."

"Hahaha, I've given birth, I've finally given birth."

The room echoed with Lan Kui's joyful laughter.

Shen Wang also walked in with a smile, watching Lan Kui hold her son and grin widely.

At this moment, the baby in swaddling opened his mouth and said: "Hahaha, I finally made it out too."

Shen Wang's smile faded, and the other women beside him also stared at the baby in astonishment.

Such a small child, and he could already speak at birth?

Lan Kui was startled, "Oh my, you aren't a demon, are you?"

"Mother, I'm your son. I've been listening to you all, yet unable to speak. Do you know how anxious your son has been?"

The baby's face showed a look of grievance as he said: "Do you know how I've gotten through these years?"

"Wow, this child learned to speak while still in the womb."

Paper Kite exclaimed in surprise.

Jia'Er nodded: "It must be because the pregnancy lasted too long, this child learned to speak directly in the womb."

"Don't worry, sister Lan Kui, how could what came out of your womb be a demon? If it were a demon, it would make sense since you're a demon too."

Molan teased.

"Mother, I'm not a demon, please don't drop me."

The child said fearfully.

Lan Kui sighed in relief, pinched her son's cheek, "You're such a child, you scared your mother to death."

"Mother, where's my father?"

The child asked curiously.

"At the door."

Lan Kui adjusted her son so he could see Shen Wang walking over.

"Father, I finally see you."

The baby said in a soft voice.

"You, little one, were born extraordinary."

Shen Wang took his son: "However, even if you are born extraordinary, you are still counted from your birth time, you're our sixteenth child, named Lansheng."

"Mm-hmm."

Lansheng didn't have too many thoughts, he could speak, but just barely like a three or four-year-old child.

Shen Wang also glanced at the system.

[Name: Shen Lansheng]

[Talent: Extraordinary, possessing top-grade Gold and Water Attribute fused Spirit Root (in gestation), top-grade comprehension (inactive), True Dragon Body (in gestation)]

There were no other issues; the child was in normal condition, purely learned to speak due to the prolonged gestation period.

"His talent is the best among the sixteen children. It seems Lan Kui's family is quite remarkable."

Shen Wang mused. His own talent, no matter how formidable, couldn't ensure offspring with top-tier talent.

Lansheng's exceptional talent likely originated from Lan Kui, especially the True Dragon Body, undoubtedly from his mother.

"This child is so smart."

Jia'Er sighed, comparing to her own son, who was far behind.

"You must be the eldest sister, I remember your voice." Lansheng identified everyone present by voice alone, earning him much praise.

The cat transformed by You Huang observed everything with surprise.

What kind of family is this? Ordinary maids, a saint from a sect, and even Lan Kui, a genuine Dragon Girl, with a child born able to speak... they truly have the hallmarks of a great cultivation family.

And such a mysterious family, she had never heard of before.

"If this continues, within a hundred years, this family will undoubtedly be renowned throughout the continent."

You Huang thought to herself.

The joy lasted a few days before settling down, Shen Wang's cultivation progress increased by five percent, saving him decades of hard cultivation.

Combined with the cultivation he gained usually from training and rewards, his cultivation progress reached 20/100, advancing well from early-stage Nascent Soul to mid-stage.

With a bit more time collecting rewards and another child, breaking through to mid-stage Nascent Soul wouldn't be difficult.

Of course, the speed was still somewhat slower compared to before, but after a year, with another batch of eight children being born, he would advance significantly.

Just by staying with his wife and children, Shen Wang steadily increased his power. His desire to venture outside diminished, only the matter concerning Liu Shan and another issue required resolution for him to consider heading into danger.

A few days later, You Huang finally discovered the information Shen Wang wanted.

Maintaining her cat form, she reported the situation back to Shen Wang: "It's the people from the Celestial Travel Sect and Yun Family planning to retrieve some treasure from the Demon Cave. Failing to acquire the treasure, they instead captured your people and are now studying them."

"Studying?"

Shen Wang was intrigued by this news: "Are they attempting to absorb demonic Qi for cultivation?"

"Possibly, since some of your kin resort to any method to become stronger. I reckon they wouldn't resist."

You Huang taunted.

"If that's the case, I must go take a look." Shen Wang also believed some members of the Yun Family and Celestial Travel Sect were playing with fire.

The demonic Qi cannot be absorbed by ordinary people. It's all well and good if they simply lose resources, but it could provoke other troubles, like the sealed entity within the Demon Cave.

"I need to make a trip, make sure to look after the house well. I'll pamper you when I return."

Shen Wang decided to go personally.

You Huang replied speechlessly: "Are you suggesting I bear your child too?"

"Why not?"

Shen Wang teased, stroking You Huang: "You see the members of my family, we even have a True Dragon. Adding a cat-eared girl like you isn't much."

"You... you can't do that." You Huang said nervously.
