Streams of emerald-green life energy continuously flowed through Little Fairy Doctor's meridians and flesh, quietly improving her aptitude from the inside out.
After roughly ten minutes, the green radiance enveloping her body gradually dimmed, finally merging completely into her skin and dissipating.
In that instant, her aura surged—directly breaking through to the peak of four-star Dou Zun.
It was a pity she didn't directly step into five-star Dou Zun, but judging from the lingering vitality in her body, that breakthrough wouldn't be far away.
Among all his women, Little Fairy Doctor was the easiest to level up in terms of cultivation speed, yet she was also the one they envied the least.
Every bit of her strength had been earned through blood, sweat, and enduring unimaginable pain.
They had all personally witnessed her cultivation scenes—toxins that could instantly kill any of them were calmly absorbed into her body and refined into pure Dou Qi.
Because of this, they held immense respect for Little Fairy Doctor.
In their eyes and hearts—aside from Xun'er—Little Fairy Doctor was the true "big sister" and master of the harem. She was gentle, kind, understanding, and always gave her all whenever anyone needed help, offering meticulous care without ever asking for anything in return.
"Xian'er, how do you feel? Any discomfort?" Xiao Jietian asked softly.
Amid Medusa's small exclamation of surprise, he directly picked Little Fairy Doctor up and carried her over.
"No, I feel full of vitality all over. Most importantly… I can now control the Calamity Poison Body much more easily than before."
Little Fairy Doctor stood up, moved her limbs lightly, and spoke with genuine emotion.
Then she noticed the thick layer of black impurities covering her skin, carrying a faint unpleasant odor.
She, who had always loved cleanliness, couldn't tolerate such things on her body—of course, except for the "gifts" Xiao Jietian occasionally left behind.
With a slight flush on her cheeks, she hurriedly circulated Dou Qi to expel the impurities, separating them cleanly from her skin.
"I'll go wash up first. I'm all sticky."
As she spoke, she didn't forget to shoot Xiao Jietian a glare—clearly blaming him for being the root cause of her current state.
She turned and walked toward the bathing pool.
But before she could take more than a few steps, a large hand wrapped around her waist and lifted her straight off the ground.
"I'm happy to help. I'm very professional."
Little Fairy Doctor turned her head and met Xiao Jietian's smiling face.
"I don't think you're helping out of kindness. I'm not going to expose you."
Medusa's slightly sour yet playful voice floated over from the side.
But inwardly she was grumbling: *Damn guy, didn't you see that I also need a bath? You bad thing, why aren't you offering to help me? Hmph.*
Xiao Jietian glanced at Medusa's expression and immediately understood what she was thinking. They all knew each other too well.
"Then, my respected Queen, would you also like my professional assistance?"
Xiao Jietian extended his other hand toward Medusa with a bright smile.
"This Queen does not need it."
Yet her actions completely contradicted her words—she grabbed his outstretched hand, refusing to meet his eyes, lips pursed in a tiny pout.
"Don't think too much. This Queen is only reluctantly giving you this opportunity because you asked so sincerely."
Xiao Jietian looked at the woman who was clearly eager on the inside yet stubbornly refusing to admit it, and simply tugged her hand firmly.
In the next moment, Medusa fell straight into his arms.
Little Fairy Doctor, still cradled against his chest, watched the two of them and couldn't help laughing softly.
"You always say you respect Fei Yan, yet you never hold back any strength in normal times. You're so bad… but I like it."
"That's right. Can you call that respect?"
Medusa immediately pinched Xiao Jietian hard when she heard Little Fairy Doctor's teasing.
"Ah~ It hurts me to death~"
Xiao Jietian cried out dramatically as though he were mortally wounded, then quickly carried both women toward the bathing pool.
"Plop!"
A huge splash erupted as the three of them fell into the water, sending waves rippling outward.
With Xiao Jietian's "help," the two women thoroughly cleaned their bodies.
Afterward, in repayment for his "hard work," they rewarded him with a long, tender springtime session.
After all, one cannot only take without giving—this was unacceptable.
Having grown up under the red flag, he firmly believed that when others gave, you must give back in return so that relationships could develop in a friendly and harmonious manner.
…
The next morning.
Xiao Jietian slowly woke up.
He carefully moved aside the two smooth, beautiful legs draped across his body on either side.
Just as he sat up, the bedroom door was gently pushed open.
A green-haired girl in a light green dress walked in quietly.
"Young Master, Qing Lin has come to serve you for washing up."
It was Qing Lin.
She placed the washbasin on the nearby shelf, selected a set of clothes from the rack, and began gently helping Xiao Jietian dress.
"Qing'er, why are you here? Have you been waiting outside the whole time?" Xiao Jietian asked softly as he looked at her.
"Qing Lin is Young Master's exclusive maid. Serving you is my duty." Qing Lin's small mouth flattened slightly as she continued in a soft voice, "But Qing Lin hasn't been able to serve Young Master for washing up in a long time."
As she spoke, her gaze discreetly drifted toward Medusa and Little Fairy Doctor, who were still sleeping soundly on the bed. A faint trace of envy flickered in her eyes.
*Young Master hasn't favored Qing Lin for several days…*
But Qing Lin didn't feel much jealousy.
They had already explained things to her before, and Young Master had also said it wasn't suitable for her to become pregnant right now.
Xiao Jietian opened his arms, comfortably enjoying Qing Lin's gentle service.
Although she tried to hide it, he still noticed the aggrieved look on her face—pursed lips, slightly lowered eyes. She looked so adorably pitiful that he really wanted to bully her a little.
After Qing Lin finished helping him dress, Xiao Jietian suddenly wrapped his arms around her slender, unbearable waist, pulling her soft body flush against his.
He lowered his head, kissed her gently on the lips, then leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"Tonight, your Young Master will come find you."
Qing Lin's eyes instantly brightened.
A wave of joy surged through her, and with it came an unconscious burst of fatal charm—the innate allure of her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.
"Can… can Qing Lin call Sister Yue along?" she asked softly.
After speaking, she seemed to remember something and hurriedly added in a small voice:
"Qing Lin is afraid… afraid she can't endure it alone."
"Of course."
Xiao Jietian naturally welcomed the suggestion even more.
Finally, under Qing Lin's careful service, he simply washed up and walked out of the bedroom.
Qing Lin stayed behind to tidy the room.
Leaving the palace and arriving at the main hall of Eternal Heaven Palace, he saw Yun Yun, Ya Fei, Han Yue, Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ding, Xue Lan, and the others all gathered inside.
(Eternal Heaven Palace was divided into two main areas: the huge front hall for receiving guests, and the private back palace for the harem.
In the future, they would simply refer to them as the front hall and back hall.
There were maids stationed in the front hall, but at the women's request, none were assigned to the back palace—mainly because they were worried someone might not be able to control themselves, and having maids around would be inconvenient.)
His two daughters were currently being held: one in his grandfather Xiao Zhan's arms, the other in his sister-in-law Xue Lan's.
Xiao Jietian walked over to Yun Yun and the others, sat down beside them, and asked softly:
"Yun'er, Feier, is there any discomfort in your bodies?"
Both women gently shook their heads.
Ya Fei leaned her head against Xiao Jietian's shoulder, gazing at her daughter—who was giggling happily as everyone teased her—and smiled contentedly:
"No discomfort at all. Right now… I just feel so happy."
Thinking back to how she once worried endlessly about her uncertain fate, and now she had given birth to a child for the man she loved, her face was filled with deep satisfaction.
Her life truly held no regrets.
Yun Yun beside her nodded in quiet agreement.
Han Yue, however, showed a trace of envy in her eyes.
At that moment, Qing Lin—who had finished tidying up—also walked into the main hall.
