Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

```

"So many?"

Chu Xin was somewhat surprised, for this was even more than the Divine Water that had been born from the absorption of Resentment Energy from the Ancient Divine Corpse.

"Could it be that the Blood Demon Energy is of an even higher level than the Resentment Energy of an Ancient God?"

She muttered to herself and then looked towards Chu Chen, urging him, "Quick, take it out, two drops each for us to eat."

Chu Chen shook his head and brought all four drops of Divine Water to Chu Xin, saying, "Sister, you take all four drops. Dad said that breaking through to Martial Emperor is a transformation that requires a tremendous amount of energy. Let's give all the energy to you first, and after you break through, then I will eat. This way, sister's chances of breaking through are even greater."

"How can that be? Dad said that we are siblings, and we should share good things together."

Chu Xin first shook her head, then spoke again, "But what you said isn't wrong either. Concentrating all resources on one person to break through does increase the chances. So, these four drops of Divine Water, let's have the little brother eat them. Dad also said that I am the elder sister, and I should indulge my little brother."

Having said that, she pushed the four drops of Divine Water back towards Chu Chen.

Chu Chen kept shaking his head and waved his hand, saying, "But dad also said that I am a little man and should protect my sister, so you should eat it, sister."

Chu Xin scratched her head and looked at the four drops of Divine Water that had returned to her again. Her round eyes rolled about as she suggested, "Little brother, why don't we play rock-paper-scissors? Whoever wins gets to eat, alright?"

"Okay!"

Chu Chen happily agreed upon hearing this.

"Rock-paper-scissors."

The siblings placed their small hands behind their backs, chanting the command in unison, and then both extended their right hands at the same time.

Chu Chen had rock, Chu Xin had paper.

"Yay! I lost."

Chu Chen cheered and urged, "Sister, eat quickly, you can't go back on your word."

This was probably the first time he was so happy to lose.

"Ah, alright then."

Chu Xin sighed like an old soul and swallowed all four drops of Divine Water, then immediately sat down on the spot to begin assimilating them.

Chu Chen hopped onto a large chair nearby with his small body. While eating grilled meat and drinking Beast Milk, he protected his sister during her cultivation.

Hum!

About an hour later, Divine Runes began to rise from within Chu Xin's body, totaling thirteen. A powerful aura rose from within her, sweeping across the entire Ye Residence.

"What's happening? Is a strong enemy approaching?"

Ye Hongxue, who had been resting in her room, and Long Yufei, who had just returned to the Ye Residence, sensed this dreadful aura and rushed over.

"Auntie Ye, Auntie Long, keep your voices down; my sister is cultivating," Chu Chen said, placing his chubby finger to his lips, speaking in a lowered tone.

"Ai Chirou? Is she about to break through?"

Ye Hongxue, looking at Chu Xin sitting on the ground surrounded by Divine Runes, tiptoed to Chu Chen's side and whispered.

Long Yufei looked up at the sky outside, shaking her head, "There are no signs of a Heavenly Tribulation coming, so it's unlikely she'll break through."

"Right."

Chu Chen glanced at Chu Xin, nodded and said after sipping some Beast Milk, "Her strength will increase a lot, but it's still not enough for a breakthrough."

"The momentum she's emanating far exceeds that of a Peak Martial Saint."

Ye Hongxue was greatly surprised. If it were a common cultivator, they would have probably attracted a Heavenly Tribulation by now, yet this little girl still hadn't met the conditions to break through.

Long Yufei was also taken aback and muttered, "It doesn't just far exceed a Peak Martial Saint, even those half-step Martial Emperors in Longzhou don't match up to her. She seems to be cultivating something called Divine Rune Power, right? Incredibly mysterious and powerful, I've never seen it before."

Of course, the information relayed by her avatar included special details about the unique energies the two youngsters were cultivating.

She had searched the royal family's Book Storage Pavilion but found no records related to it.

It was then that a dazzling golden light illuminated from Chu Xin's hands and torso, gradually forming a Divine Rune.

```

One in each hand, a total of two Divine Runes were added.

Now, Chu Xin possesses a total of fifteen Divine Runes. Her strength has been greatly enhanced, but she still hasn't met the conditions for a breakthrough.

What exactly is this energy?

Ye Hongxue and Long Yufei's faces were filled with shock and confusion.

Whoosh!

The fifteen Divine Runes concealed themselves as Chu Xin slowly opened her eyes, and the aura she emitted instantly disappeared without a trace.

"Aunt Ye, Aunt Long, what brings you here?"

Chu Xin hopped up from the ground and asked in surprise.

"I just came to take a look,"

Ye Hongxue said with a smile.

Long Yufei took out a Sumeru Ring and said, "This contains all the Ancient Treasures with Divine Power from the Royal Treasure Pavilion. I've brought them all to you, hoping they might help you achieve a breakthrough."

Chu Xin took the Sumeru Ring, and her round, big eyes suddenly lit up. She said with a giggle, "Whether we can breakthrough or not, we'll only know after we try."

"Sister, you eat them all," Chu Chen said in a babyish voice.

"Mhm!"

Chu Xin nodded her head, this time not refusing any further.

After all, she had already consumed four drops of Divine Water; eating these Ancient Treasures containing Divine Power would naturally be even better for her.

She took out an Ancient Sword Treasure and was about to stuff it into her mouth.

"Are you really eating it?"

Ye Hongxue and Long Yufei exclaimed in unison, surprised. Find your next read at My Virtual Library Empire

They had thought the two little toddlers were just joking and that they actually absorbed the Divine Power from the Ancient Treasures through some Secret Technique, but unexpectedly, the little toddler was really going to eat it with her mouth.

Those were Ancient Treasures containing Divine Power. Although they weren't on the level of Emperor's Artifacts, they were still far from ordinary treasures. Could they really be eaten?

"Actually, it's not necessary to eat them."

Chu Xin paused and said with her childlike voice, "Before, Daddy would have us hug the Ancient Treasures while sleeping. After one sleep, we would have absorbed the energy contained in the Ancient Treasures. If one sleep wasn't enough, we'd just sleep a few more times."

Hugging Ancient Treasures to sleep could increase one's strength?

Ye Hongxue and Long Yufei opened their mouths wide, utterly bewildered.

They had heard about many special physiques that greatly increase the speed of Cultivation, but they had never heard of improving strength by sleeping with treasures. What kind of physique did this little toddler have?

"But hugging them to sleep is too slow, eating them directly is much faster,"

Chu Xin added, and then she stuffed the Ancient Sword Treasure into her mouth.

A gentle bite from her tiny, white teeth, and a crunch was heard—the Ancient Sword Treasure was bitten into.

Chu Xin's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her round, big eyes showed a touch of dislike as she muttered, "It tastes so bad."

Gurgle!

Both Ye Hongxue and Long Yufei simultaneously swallowed, feeling a tingling sensation in their throats.

But for Chu Xin, anything that reached her mouth would be transformed into pure energy and absorbed by the Divine Runes.

The only difference was the flavor of each item.

Some tasted good, some tasted bad.

This Ancient Sword Treasure, like most of the Ancient Treasures, fell into the bad-tasting category.

However, to achieve a breakthrough to a realm on par with a Martial Emperor in the shortest time possible, she had to eat them no matter how bad they tasted.
