BTTH: Bearing Children to get Reward, I'll Create the Strongest Family

'System, extract the Nether Soul Banner!' Chenfeng commanded again, his anticipation growing.

In the next instant, a black, ominous flag materialized in his hand.

The Nether Soul Banner was entirely jet-black, with intricate, eerie patterns etched across its surface. A faint black mist swirled around it, exuding a sinister aura that seemed to whisper of malevolence.

Chenfeng examined it closely, unbothered by its dark and foreboding nature.

'Evil or not, it doesn't matter,' he thought, a slight smirk playing on his lips. 'As long as it serves its purpose.'

To him, tools were defined by their utility, not their morality.

'This thing should be able to deal with Yao Chen, right?'

As the thought of Yao Chen's soul body crossed his mind, Chenfeng's eyes glimmered with intrigue.

The Nether Soul Banner opened up a world of new possibilities, and a bold idea began to take shape.

If he could capture Yao Chen—a wandering "Alchemist Master" soul—and turn him into his soul slave, the benefits would be immense.

With Yao Chen under his control, he would have an endless supply of medicinal pills and alchemical expertise at his disposal.

The prospect was too tempting to ignore. A wicked smile crept across Chenfeng's lips as he entertained the thought, his mind already strategizing how to make this ambition a reality.

He gave his word to Xiao Yan back then, promising that taking the "Qi Gathering Powder", he will regain his talent within three months.

Now perhaps Xiao Yan's talent can return early.

However, this matter needs to be planned very carefully. After all, Yao Chen was once the famous "Saint Yao Chen", an eighth-tier alchemist.

Even if he is seriously injured now and is only a soul body, he still cannot be dealt with easily.

However Chenfeng's confidence grew as he assessed his current assets.

He had Ling Ying, a loyal and formidable subordinate, and the Rank 6 magical beast, the Purple Electric Marten, as his pet and guardian.

Now, with the recent acquisition of the Nether Soul Banner, a tool specifically designed to restrain and dominate souls, his strength had taken a significant leap forward.

If he were to face Yao Chen head-on, Chenfeng felt certain he would hold the upper hand. With his combined forces and the banner's soul-binding power, even a soul as formidable as Yao Chen's would struggle to escape his grasp.

But Chenfeng was not one to act recklessly. He always prioritized stability and preparation in every endeavor.

'If I can get Xiao Xun'er pregnant and secure another wave of rewards, I'll be completely certain of my ability to deal with Yao Chen,' he mused, a calculated gleam in his eyes.

Thinking of Xiao Xun'er residing in the small world, Chenfeng couldn't help but feel a flicker of excitement.

Today, he resolved he must explore this proud daughter of the ancient clan thoroughly.

With that thought in mind, he adjusted his attire, ensuring he looked impeccable, and left the guest room. Once on the bustling streets of Wu Tan City, Chenfeng busied himself purchasing various daily necessities.

If Xiao Xun'er becomes pregnant, Chenfeng also plans to let her raise her baby peacefully in the small world.

Therefore, a comfortable environment must be provided for her and the unborn child.

Originally, he did not need to do the purchasing himself, he only had to ask the people at the Miteer Auction House to do it for him.

But if the news reaches Ya Fei, it will be a difficult matter to explain.

An hour later, Chenfeng returned to the manor, his storage ring filled with all the items he had meticulously chosen during his shopping trip.

Wasting no time, he summoned the two maids who had attended to him earlier and instructed them to prepare a bucket of hot water.

Xiao Xun'er had endured an exhausting night, both physically and mentally, and even after that, she had selflessly attended to him. It was only natural that she, too, deserved a thorough and relaxing bath to restore her strength and composure.

The two maids exchanged puzzled glances. Hadn't Chenfeng just finished his bath? Why would he need to bathe again so soon?

Before they could dwell on it, Chenfeng spoke calmly, giving them another instruction.

"If Miss Ya Fei comes looking for me after she wakes up, tell her I had some errands to attend to and will return later tonight," he said, his tone measured but firm.

He wanted to avoid causing Ya Fei any unnecessary concern. lest she woke up and didn't find him only to worry all over again.

"Yes, Young Master Chenfeng."

After the two maids departed, Chenfeng focused his thoughts, and in an instant, he transported himself—and the bathtub filled with steaming hot water—directly into the small world.

...

In the small world.

Xiao Xun'er sat on the ground, her slender arms wrapped around her knees, and her head resting against them. Her once neat and lustrous hair now hung in disarray, and her usually bright eyes were dim and unfocused.

Beside her stood Ling Ying, silent and steadfast, continuing his duty as her "loyal" guardian.

Yet, despite his presence, Xiao Xun'er felt an overwhelming loneliness settle deep within her heart. Her gaze was hollow, and an indescribable emptiness consumed her, leaving her spirit adrift.

For some reason, she suddenly wanted Chenfeng to return to the small world.

It was so deserted and empty everywhere she looked that she felt cold all over.

"Xiao Xun'er, why are you crying again?"

At that moment, Chenfeng's voice rang out softly from behind Xiao Xun'er.

Startled, she lifted her head, and a faint trace of joy flickered across her previously sorrowful face. Though subtle, it was unmistakable.

The moment Chenfeng appeared, an inexplicable sense of comfort washed over Xiao Xun'er, dispelling the loneliness that had gripped her heart.

"Master, you're here..." she murmured, her voice carrying a mix of relief and quiet emotion.

At this moment, her fair and delicate face was covered with tears. It was obvious that she had been crying for a long time after Chenfeng left.

"Why are you crying? Did you think of something sad?"

Chenfeng showed a smile on his face and came to Xiao Xun'er's side.

He reached out his hand and gently wiped away the tears on the girl's face.

'Such a beautiful face... it's a shame to see it stained with tears.'

Looking at the haggard and disheveled girl before him, Chenfeng felt a pang of tenderness in his heart. Without hesitation, he stepped forward and gently pulled Xiao Xun'er into his arms, enveloping her soft and delicate frame in his embrace.

"Master... Master, what are you doing?"

Startled by his sudden action, Xiao Xun'er looked up at Chenfeng with wide, uncertain eyes, her voice trembling with a mix of confusion and shyness.

"Look at how dirty you are, doesn't it bother you? Come, let me help you wash your body"

Chenfeng hugged Xiao Xun'er and walked directly towards the tub.

At the same time with a thought in his mind, he sent Ling Ying out.

If he wants to do ecchi things later, naturally he can't have an audience on the side cheering him on.

Held gently in Chenfeng's arms, Xiao Xun'er glanced toward the steaming tub of hot water nearby. Her delicate eyelashes fluttered as a wave of emotion swelled in her chest.

As someone who had been pampered since childhood and maintained a meticulous sense of cleanliness, Xiao Xun'er naturally held a deep love for tidiness.

On any given day, she would change outfits multiple times to ensure she always felt fresh.

Now, however, her current state left her feeling utterly uncomfortable. Dirt and sweat clung to her skin, amplifying the sensation of unease.

It was as though countless invisible ants were crawling over her body, making her long for the cleansing embrace of the warm water before her.

"Come, take off your clothes."

Chenfeng reached out to untie Xiao Xun'er's purple skirt.

"No... But.. I can't."

"Master.. I can do it myself."

Seeing Chenfeng's attentive actions, Xiao Xun'er instinctively took a step back, her cheeks flushed, and the tips of her ears turning bright red.

"No need to be shy, let me help you." Chenfeng said softly, his voice tinged with care, though he couldn't entirely hide his enthusiasm. He smiled warmly, exuding a sense of understanding that made it difficult for her to refuse.

Eventually, under Xiao Xun'er's firm insistence, he relented with a sigh of mock helplessness and turned his back to her.

"Master... you're not allowed to peek," Xiao Xun'er warned, her face still a deep shade of crimson as she stole a glance at him.

To ensure her privacy, she carefully positioned herself on the opposite side of the tub, creating a safe distance in case Chenfeng decided to turn around suddenly.

"Do I look like the type of person who would do that?" Chenfeng responded with exaggerated righteousness, though a faint smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.

Reassured by his words, Xiao Xun'er hesitated briefly before beginning to remove her soiled clothes, her movements cautious and deliberate.

A trace of flawless, delicate jade white skin peeked out, smooth and radiant as if crafted by the gods themselves.

Her delicate curves, perfectly proportioned, exuded an ethereal charm that seemed to defy earthly standards of beauty.

Her figure was a masterpiece, each curve and contour sculpted with breathtaking precision. The gentle slope of her shoulders, the slender lines of her waist, and the graceful arc of her back—all combined to create a vision so mesmerizing it felt almost sacred. She was like a celestial artwork: something to be admired from afar but never touched, for even the thought of doing so felt like a sacrilege.

As the soft rustling of fabric continued behind him, Chenfeng couldn't help but feel a subtle restlessness stir within him, an itch that refused to be ignored.

Then he seemed to have thought of something, and a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

With a thought in mind, he took out the Image Recording Crystal and activated it.

Such a beautiful scene must of course be recorded so he can enjoy it later.

Noticing that Chenfeng acted very honestly, Xiao Xun'er finally stood up, her movements swift yet graceful. She stepped into the bathtub, her dainty, jade-like foot sinking into the warm water first, followed by the rest of her delicate figure.

Soon, she was submerged, leaving only her small, flawless face above the water's surface.

Hearing the sound of water splashing as she settled in, Chenfeng turned around with a charming smile and walked toward the bathtub.

"Good Xun'er, would you like me to help wash your back?" he teased, his tone playful.

"No!" Xiao Xun'er shook her head quickly, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

"Then how about I help you wash your hair?" Chenfeng pressed, his smile deepening.

"I said no!" she exclaimed, shrinking further into the water in an attempt to hide.

As she huddled in the tub, the gentle ripples danced across the surface, subtly revealing and concealing her lithe, graceful figure. The movement only seemed to draw Chenfeng's gaze further, though he maintained his teasing demeanor.

"Master, can you look away, I..."

Chenfeng looked at Xiao Xun'er, who was lying sitting inside the tub, staring at him with bright eyes.

Xiao Xun'er's face was rosy, her arms were folded in front of her chest and pink slit, trying her best to hide her delicate body in the water.

He couldn't help but swallow dry spit when he saw Xiao Xun'er's smooth and white rabbits.

So full!

Xiao Xun'er couldn't stand Chenfeng's gaze no more, she shouted pitifully: "Master... please."

Chenfeng came back to his senses and reluctantly looked away.

"Okay."

Observing Xiao Xun'er's pretty face, the slap marks has not completely dissipated.

Chenfeng felt a little unsightly.

After thinking about it, he took out a jade bottle from the ring and poured some liquid into the water.

"Master... what are you..."

Xiao Xun'er shrank back, a trace of vigilance flashing in his beautiful eyes.

Based on her understanding of Chenfeng, this liquid was definitely not a good thing.

"What are you afraid of? Do you think I will harm you huh?"

"This is Purple Jade Liquid, very suitable for healing... You have quite the imagination girl..." Seeing Xiao Xun'er's reaction, Chenfeng rolled his eyes.

This girl doesn't think she's given some shady drugs, does she?

Am I that kind of person?

Hearing Chenfeng's teasing words, Xiao Xun'er's face flushed a deep crimson, the color quickly spreading to her delicate ears, which turned as red as ripened cherries.

"I'm sorry, Master..."

Her embarrassment was mixed with slight nervousness, afraid Chenfeng will be dissatisfied and angry with her.

Her feelings were so intense that she could barely meet his gaze, instead sinking a little lower into the water in an attempt to hide her body and face. 

"Okay, okay, you can wash yourself slowly, I won't disturb you anymore."

Seeing Xiao Xun'er's appearance, Chenfeng waved his hand and walked not far away.

"Thank you, Master!"

Relived Chenfeng was not angry, Xiao Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps it was because she had grown accustomed to Chenfeng's forceful and domineering treatment during this time that his sudden display of generosity and gentleness left her momentarily stunned.

A strange warmth stirred in her heart, an emotion she couldn't quite identify. As her gaze lingered on Chenfeng's broad back, a faint sense of fondness emerged unbidden. For the first time, she found herself thinking that, despite everything, Chenfeng had moments where he treated her with surprising care.

At that moment, Chenfeng suddenly retrieved a large, plush bed from his storage ring. Its surface looked soft and inviting, with a slight bounce as he pressed it down.

He placed a neatly folded set of clothes, prepared specifically for Xiao Xun'er, on the bed with deliberate care.

"I've put a change of clothes here for you," he said with a calm but knowing tone. "After you're done washing, just lie on the bed and wait for me."

Chenfeng sat on the edge of the bed, testing its elasticity with a light bounce. Satisfied with its comfort, he leaned back slightly, glancing toward Xiao Xun'er with a playful smirk that carried a hint of mischief.

Then, without another word, Chenfeng vanished from the small world, leaving behind an air of anticipation.

"Wait for him on the bed...?"

Looking at the big bed left by Chenfeng, Xiao Xun'er had a bad feeling in her heart, and her face instantly fell.

"He can't be..."

Some embarrassing pictures flashed through her mind, and a faint blush flashed across her fair and delicate face, but Xiao Xun'er's beautiful eyes were filled with sadness.

Could it be that she couldn't escape fromher master's clutches in the end?

"Master?"

Xiao Xun'er called out to the void as her delicate body shrank in the water.

After calling a few more times, confirming that Chenfeng had really left, Xiao Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to rub her white and tender skin.

Meanwhile, in the room.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Chenfeng injected his soul power into the Universe Treasure Box, and immediately saw an extremely captivating scene, and felt restless in his heart.

He sighed in his heart, this Xiao Xun'er is indeed a popular heroine in the original work, she is indeed extraordinary.

Still at a young age, her body has already begun to take shape towards greatness.

"Finally clean..."

After some time had passed and noticing that Xiao Xun'er seemed to have finished washing, Chenfeng, filled with anticipation, couldn't hold back any longer. With a single thought, he re-entered the small world, his expression brimming with eagerness.

In the small world, Xiao Xun'er had finished scrubbing her body clean. Her delicate skin, still glistening with droplets of water that had yet to be wiped away, radiated a soft, alluring glow. It appeared even purer and more flawless than the finest white jade, a vision of perfect beauty.

Her captivating eyes glanced around, ensuring that Chenfeng was nowhere to be seen. Satisfied that she was alone, Xiao Xun'er carefully climbed out of the tub. Her body, exposed to the cool air, seemed to shimmer with a fresh, elegant fragrance, reminiscent of a blooming flower in spring.

She hesitated for a moment as her gaze fell upon the clothes Chenfeng had placed on the bed. With a soft breath, she stood on tiptoe and slowly moved toward the bed, her movements graceful and tentative, as if unsure of what would come next.
