Chapter 316 Unique Charisma (1/2)

”Grandfather, we just met and are no different than strangers. How can you ask me to conceive a child with him? Not to mention our situation...” Lan Yingying said to him.

”So what if you're strangers? Your relationship won't matter regardless since he'll be leaving in a month whether you like it or not!” The old man said.

”Even if you say that… What about his opinion on this matter?” Lan Yingying turned to look at Yuan, who looked very confused about the current situation.

”Do we even need to ask him? Who could possibly refuse our beautiful granddaughter? And why do you seem so reluctant? If you don't continue our lineage, who will take care of the Lord's stone tablet in the future? Who will be here to greet the Lord when he returns?” The old man sighed.

”W-Wait a minute…” Yuan suddenly interrupted. ”What do you mean by your last words? Hasn't it been hundreds of thousands of years since the Lord 'disappeared' from this place? Can a human even live that long?”

The old man chuckled after hearing his words, and he spoke a moment later, ”Of course not— no human would be able to live that long. However, the Lord is not dead, and while we say he 'disappeared', the Lord merely left the Mystic Realm and hasn't returned since then. Although we don't know where he went or what he's doing outside, with his heaven-defying talents, we're certain that he could reach the peak of cultivation and become a real Immortal.”

”True Immortals can live millions of years with ease, nor are they affected by the passage of time. They also can't die from natural causes such as diseases or old age, and the only way they can die is if someone kills them, but even that requires some effort.”

”And as long as the Lord is alive, he'll definitely return to this world in the future. That's what he promised my ancestors right before he left, after all.” The old man said with a confident smile on his face.

Yuan was speechless. He was simply amazed by their loyalty to this Lord person. If he had to wait hundreds of thousands of years, even potentially millions of years for someone to return, he would've probably lost faith long ago.

”Anyways, thank you for teaching me so much about this world, but I have to leave now, as I still need to regroup with my team,” Yuan said to them a moment later.

”What? You're leaving already? But you still haven't done anything with our granddaughter! At least sow your seeds in her before you leave!” The old lady quickly said.

”Umm… I'm not exactly sure what you mean by that…” Yuan then said.

The old couple exchanged looks with each other. What kind of life has this young man been living that made him so innocent? What about his parents?

”Ahem!” The old man cleared his throat and said, ”In other words… I want you and my granddaughter to have a child together.”

Yuan's eyes widened with shock. While he doesn't know anything about giving birth since nobody has taught him about the subject, he at least knew how much responsibility it was to have children.

”B-But I won't be in this world in a month… And I don't think I am ready to bear so much responsibility…” Yuan said to them a moment later.

”It's fine even if you leave. We aren't asking for you to take responsibility, either. You simply need to impregnate our granddaughter so that our lineage will continue. We'll take care of everything else after that.” The old lady said.
