After kowtowing to the jade tablet for a couple of minutes, the old man stood up and patted his robes before turning around and walking away from the place.

"This subordinate will come to get you as soon as possible, Master…"

Meanwhile, back inside the Mystic Realm, Yuan sat around the table with the Lan Family as they began their feast.

"Good lord, you appear to have a bigger appet.i.te than even us, Divine Beasts!" Grandma Lan exclaimed when Yuan displayed his eating talents before their very eyes for the first time.

"Hahaha! At this rate, you'll even eat our portions! Well, eat all you want! You're going to need all your strength when fighting the demons." Grandpa Lan said to him.

Sometime later, after the feast, Lan Yingying turned to look at Yuan and asked him, "Your bloodline awakened, right? Do you know what kind of bloodline you have?"

Yuan nodded and said, "Something called Immortal Monarch Bloodline."

"Pft!"

Grandpa Lan directly spat out the tea in his mouth after hearing Yuan's words.

"I-Immortal?! You have an Immortal bloodline?!" He looked at Yuan with disbelief in his gaze.

"There's no way an Immortal's bloodline could possibly be Royal-grade! I am certain about this now!" Grandpa Lan said.

"What's an Immortal's bloodline?" Yuan asked him.

"Immortal bloodlines are special bloodlines that can only be pa.s.sed down by true Immortals in the highest realms at the upper heavens, and these bloodlines usually have heaven-defying powers that can turn even a normal human into a peak cultivation prodigy!" Grandpa Lan explained everything he knew about Immortal bloodlines.

"To tell you the truth, I don't know much about Immortals or Immortal bloodlines except that they are incredibly rare and powerful. If you have an Immortal bloodline, then you're definitely a descendant of a very powerful Cultivator."

"I see… Thank you for the information."

After the feast, Yuan logged off the game and waited for Meixiu to finish preparing dinner.

In the meantime, Yuan tried to see if there was any change to his body after consuming Lan Yingying's Divine Beast blood and awakening his bloodline.

However, he didn't feel any different than before his bloodline's awakening.

Sometime later, Meixiu went into his room with dinner.

"Yuan, did you feel the earthquake inside the Mystic Realm today?" Meixiu asked him.

"Eh? There was an earthquake? I didn't notice it…" Yuan said, as he was too focused on awakening his bloodline to notice the ma.s.sive earthquake.

"The gates to the Mystic Realm suddenly began shaking yesterday, and it caused quite the stir among the spectators."

"I see…"

"You know the crazy part? Apparently, there was also an earthquake in this world sometime this afternoon. It was all over the news." Meixiu said.

"Wow, what a coincidence," Yuan mumbled.

After dinner, Meixiu went to sleep whilst Yuan went to cultivate.

However, for some reason, he felt extremely tired that night, falling asleep a few minutes later.

Furthermore, he had a dream that night— a weird dream where he stood before a ma.s.sive jade tablet that was as large as a small mountain, and there was the word 'Destiny' engraved into this jade tablet.

"Geezer, I'm going to do it one last time."

An unfamiliar voice came from Yuan's mouth as he spoke— or more specifically, the body he was in spoke.

"How long do you think it'll take this time, Master?" An old voice resounded behind him.

And without turning around, the body Yuan was in spoke, "Who knows. It could be a thousand years from now. It could be a hundred thousand years from now. h.e.l.l, it could even be a million years. However, the moment this jade tablet glows, it means I have returned."

"This subordinate will wait for your return no matter how many millennia it may take," said the old voice.

After a moment of silence, the old voice returned, "Master, this may be out of my line, but do you intend on telling 'her' about your departure?"

"I don't…" He immediately responded, and he continued, "I'm sure that she'll be angry at me for keeping her in the dark about this, but I don't want to disturb her cultivation. She's very close to becoming a true Immortal, and any distractions might take that away from her."

"Geezer, if she makes a scene, just let her know what I told you— that I will be back for you guys no matter what."

"Anyways, I'm going to leave now. I'll see you later, Geezer."

It was at this point of the dream when Yuan woke up.

'What a weird dream…' He thought to himself.

However, despite this being his first time experiencing such a dream, he felt oddly nostalgic, almost like he'd seen that exact scene before.

Furthermore, he realized that his limbs became more responsive in the morning, allowing him to move his fingers with less effort. If he tried, he could even lift his arm and legs a little off the bed!

Yuan was filled with excitement by this change, and his antic.i.p.ation for the future grew some more.

Sometime later, Meixiu entered his room to do her daily routine.

"Yuan, let's give you a wash before you play," Meixiu said to him, as it has been some time since she last cleaned him.

"Okay," Yuan said.

Inside the bathroom, whilst Meixiu scrubbed his body down with her soapy hands, Yuan suddenly spoke, "Meixiu, do you know how to make babies?"

"Eh?"

Meixiu nearly slipped on the wet floor after hearing Yuan's sudden question.

"B-Babies? Why are you asking?" She responded in a stiff voice with her face heating up quickly.

"Well, I was in this situation that required me to make babies. However, that person was not human, so the methods were a bit unique, and I have been curious about it since then." Yuan revealed his experience in the Mystic Realm to Meixiu, greatly shocking her.

"D-Did you do it? Make babies with this person, I mean…" Meixiu decided to ask him.

"Yes, I did." Yuan calmly responded, and he continued, "She's a Divine Beast, so it'll take a thousand years for her to give birth— at least that's what she told me."

Meixiu became speechless after hearing Yuan confirm that he had indeed impregnated another ent.i.ty in the game!
