The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

Chapter 654 Rescuing Ling Ruoli

"Could this purple aura have such miraculous effects?" Chen Xuan muttered to himself.

He then snapped his fingers, and the figure of the Purple Spirit Goddess slowly appeared.

He looked at the Purple Spirit Goddess, whose face was rosy and whose eyes were full of love as she looked at Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan gently pulled her into his arms and said softly, "Ling'er, you've worked hard."

Zi Ling leaned against him and whispered, "As long as I can lend my husband a hand, Ling'er will be content."

Chen Xuan hugged Zi Ling Goddess and Chen Zi'er tightly, but in his heart he was thinking about the reason behind his "becoming whole".

"By the way, sir, what's with the tower that's mysteriously appeared outside the house lately?" Chen Zier suddenly asked.

"A tower? If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have completely forgotten. There's still a big fish inside that we haven't eaten yet!"

As Chen Xuan spoke, he led the two women back to the front of the villa.

Looking at the towering Xuanyu Tower before him, Chen Xuan instructed Xiao Zi, "This is a trial tower. When you get back, you can inform your sisters and tell them to come and try it when they have time."

"But right now, I have things to do, so you should go back and play with your sister Ling'er first."

"Oh, I understand." Chen Zier nodded obediently.

Zi Ling'er glanced at Chen Xuan and then led Chen Zi'er back to the villa.

After the two women left, Chen Xuan slowly stepped into the tower.

"Hey, you little spirit girl, I'm here to save you!"

"I'm not called 'Hey,' I'm called Ling Ruoli!" The figure of the innocent and beautiful woman slowly appeared, glaring at Chen Xuan with a look of dissatisfaction.

Chen Xuan didn't say much. He smiled confidently, and the purple aura around him surged up instantly, like a purple torrent rushing wildly into the Xuan Yu Tower.

Wherever the purple aura reached, the tower trembled slightly and emitted a series of humming sounds.

Seeing this, a hint of tension flashed in Ling Ruoli's eyes.

"What...what are you doing? Stop!" Her voice trembled slightly.

Chen Xuan did not respond, but focused intently on manipulating the purple energy.

The purple aura, like a nimble snake, swiftly burrowed into every crevice of the Xuan Yu Tower, intertwining and colliding with the spiritual energy within.

"Stop! I don't need you to save me!" the beautiful woman said with a strange expression.

However, as the purple energy continued to flow in, the light of the Xuan Yu Tower became increasingly intense, and the surrounding space began to distort and deform.

Suddenly, a sharp cry came from inside the tower, and Ling Ruoli's body was uncontrollably pulled by a powerful force, slowly drifting towards the outside of the tower.

Her eyes were tightly closed, her face contorted in pain, as if she were enduring immense torment.

"Hang in there, it'll be over soon!" Chen Xuan shouted, increasing the output of his purple energy.

"I'm in so much pain!"

"We have to put up with it!"

Finally, thanks to Chen Xuan's tireless efforts, Ling Ruoli's figure was successfully extracted from the Xuanyu Tower.

Her entire soul collapsed to the ground, her face still bearing the lingering terror of surviving a catastrophe.

But she soon realized Chen Xuan's intentions.

"You...you pulled me out of here? I'm no longer a spirit?"

"Yes."

Chen Xuan quickly stepped forward, helped Ling Ruoli up, and took out a Jianmu fruit that emitted a mysterious light from his pocket and handed it to her.

"This is the fruit of the Jianmu tree. Eating it will allow you to regain your body and also improve your aptitude."

Ling Ruoli stared in shock at the Jianmu Fruit that shimmered with a strange luster before her.

"This...this is too precious, why are you giving it to me...being so kind to me?" She raised her head and looked straight at Chen Xuan.

"We've known each other for a while now, which is quite a coincidence. Besides, you've been trapped in this Xuanyu Tower for a long time. Now that I've helped you escape, consider this Jianmu fruit as compensation for you."

"compensate?"

Ling Ruoli hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted the fruit of the Jianmu tree.

She took a small bite, and instantly, a cool, sweet juice flowed into her throat, while a powerful force rapidly spread throughout her soul.

Ling Ruoli felt as if this power was like countless nimble threads, weaving and reshaping within her soul. She kept her eyes tightly closed, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat, her face alternating between pain and relief.

As the power of the Jianmu Fruit was continuously absorbed, a faint halo gradually appeared around her soul, and within the halo, the outline of flesh and bones began to emerge.

First, the slender limbs, like newly sprouted twigs, gradually solidify; then the torso, with lines that become smooth and powerful.

Finally, her delicate features became clear, with her eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth all becoming distinct.

Chen Xuan stood to the side, intently watching Bai... cough cough, protecting her.

Before long, the halo suddenly intensified, enveloping Ling Ruoli entirely.

As the light faded, a beautiful, living woman appeared in the spot.

Her skin was as white as snow, so delicate it seemed to break at a touch, and her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall.

She slowly opened her eyes, a hint of confusion flashing across them, which was quickly replaced by surprise.

"I...I really have a body!" Ling Ruoli looked at her hands excitedly, feeling the surging power within her.

"Chen Xuan, thank you. I, Ling Ruoli, will never forget this kindness."

"Not at all, it was nothing! Besides... I can never repay your kindness!" Chen Xuan said, and in a few steps he came to the beautiful woman's side.

"Isn't it over yet? Why isn't it over yet?"

"Ahem, I misspoke just now. It was you who has already paid it back."

"You've paid it all back? When did I..."

“Because… the Xuanyu Tower is mine now!” Chen Xuan said with a sly smile.

Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, Ling Ruoli was first surprised, then anger surged within her, and her face flushed red.

"The Xuanyu Pagoda belongs to my family, passed down for tens of thousands of years. How can you just take it as you please! No, this is not acceptable. You can mention anything else, but the Xuanyu Pagoda... I absolutely cannot give it away to someone else!"

"Anything else is fine?"

"Oh dear, don't get so angry. Look, now you're the only one left in the Ling family. You're all alone here, and it's so hard for you to guard this Xuanyu Tower. Why don't you give it to me? I promise I'll take good care of it."

"you!!"

"I said I would repay your kindness, but this Jade Pagoda is an exception!"

"No, no, I want this tower! Or you, I'll take it!" Chen Xuan smiled calmly.

But in Ling Ruoli's eyes, that expression was incredibly slutty.

She was both ashamed and angry, her teeth clenched. Unable to contain herself any longer, she swiftly formed hand seals, her spiritual energy surging as she attacked Chen Xuan.

"You scoundrel, today I'll show you what I'm capable of!"

However, Chen Xuan was prepared. He dodged her attack with ease and took a step forward, restraining Ling Ruoli and rendering her unable to move.

Ling Ruoli was both anxious and angry, and struggled desperately: "Let me go!"

Chen Xuan chuckled and leaned close to the beautiful woman's ear, saying, "Don't struggle anymore. I have a good idea. Do you want to hear it?"

"What's a good idea?"

"How about... you give me a child, and when the child grows up, he can inherit the Xuanyu Tower. That way, he can stay in your Ling family, and someone can take good care of this treasure. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
