Ling Xue looked around at the people nearby and softly called out, "Xiu Er." Xiu Er hurried to the bedside, concern etched on her face. "Madam, is there anything you need?"
Ling Xue frowned slightly and replied, "I want to rest for a while. You all can leave now."
Xiu Er hesitated, saying, "But Madam, you just woke up. You need someone to take care of you."
Ling Xue gently shook her head. "I'm fine, just a bit tired. I want to be alone for a moment. You can all go out; if I need anything, I'll call for you."
With a reluctant sigh, Xiu Er said, "Alright then, Madam. Please rest. If anything comes up, make sure to call us."
Ling Xue nodded as Xiu Er led Cui Er, the Nanny, and the other Nannies out of the room.
Alone in her chamber, Ling Xue suppressed her inner excitement and silently summoned the system. *Ling Xue (thinking): System, are you there?* After a moment, a voice echoed in her mind.
System: "I am here."
Ling Xue: "Why does this system feel different from before?"
System: "Your current situation is different; thus, the system has also changed."
Ling Xue: "Why is that?"
System: "Because you are the chosen one."
Ling Xue: "The chosen one? What does that mean?"
The system did not respond. Ling Xue opened the skill menu.
System Name: Phantom Charm System.
System Introduction: Enhances the host's Charm ability to gain more advantages in both social and combat situations. Provides real-time monitoring of fetal health during pregnancy and offers professional advice on prenatal training and nutrition to ensure smooth delivery. Facilitates the fusion of spiritual energy between the host and their partners to improve training efficiency while ensuring safety during the fusion process. Supports child development by assessing talent, formulating training plans, and guiding inheritance. Reward Mechanism: Each time a child is born, a lottery ticket is awarded; the quality of the ticket depends on the child's talent level.
Opening the system backpack revealed a beginner's lottery ticket and a skill book titled *Yin Yang He Huan Gong*.
Upon clicking to use it, Ling Xue learned that *Yin Yang He Huan Gong* was the core technique of the He Huan Sect. It required the fusion of Yin and Yang energies between male and female practitioners to enhance their cultivation. Practitioners needed to find suitable partners to train together in *Yin Yang He Huan Gong* to reach higher realms. During training, they had to maintain balance and coordination between Yin and Yang energies; any imbalance could lead to severe consequences or even threaten their lives.
The effects of practicing *Yin Yang He Huan Gong* were significant but came with risks. If practitioners chose unsuitable partners or encountered issues during training, they could fall into madness and lose their cultivation completely.
Her interface displayed: Ling Xue. Sect: None. Technique: *Yin Yang He Huan Gong* (Entry-level technique of He Huan Sect). Level: Qi Into Body. No other information available.
Opening the lottery wheel revealed several items: one Dragon Essence and Tiger Might Pill, one Mysterious Weapon, one Jue Si Dan, one Foundation Pill, another chance at a draw, one Boutique Fashion Men's Suit, and one Zhu Yan Dan.
Ling Xue cursed at the system: "What are all these? The Mysterious Weapon doesn’t fit this era! I can tolerate the pills but no technique? And what's with this fancy men's suit?"
System: "Warning to the host: If disrespect towards this system continues to be detected, your lifespan may be confiscated! If you disobey me further, I will risk my own existence to ensure we both face destruction together!"
Ling Xue thought inwardly that she was truly frightened now. *Respectful system,* she pondered, *what would be most beneficial for me right now?*
The system's avatar transformed into a Giant Bug and replied: "The Dragon Essence and Tiger Might Pill, Zhu Yan Dan, and Mysterious Weapon are all valuable items! The Mysterious Weapon is a powerful tool! Since you respect this system so much, I will make an exception and directly give you the Dragon Essence and Tiger Might Pill."
In an instant, the wheel transformed into a beam of light that materialized into a pill in Ling Xue's hand. She thought in confusion: *I haven’t even made my choice yet! What does this Dragon Essence and Tiger Might Pill do? It’s not something that enhances male performance is it? This system seems off; I feel like I'm heading down an unusual path... Also, how do I proceed from here?*
The Giant Bug took a puff of smoke and said: "To thrive in this world, you must at least become an emperor or the strongest being! However, I see your potential is moderate; once I can take form through you giving birth to a highly talented child, this system will help you soar high!"
With that said, it added with a chuckle as it prepared to leave: "Oh dear! Someone's coming! I must go now!"
With a flash of light, everything vanished, leaving only the sound of someone knocking at the door. "Madam, please help me," came a voice that seemed to belong to Cui Er.
Ling Xue responded, and Xiao Cui fell to her knees with a thud. "Madam, please save me! The master wants me to accompany him tonight. Since I entered the manor, I've heard of several sisters being called by the master and never returning. Their bodies were thrown into the nearby graveyard. I'm terrified!" Xiao Cui exclaimed. "Xiu just got called to the study as well, and she hasn't returned yet. I'm afraid for her life!"
Ling Xue put away her elixir, her face showing signs of anger. "How could he be so heartless? Even the servants are not spared. Help me up and take me to the master's study." Despite feeling weak and unsteady, she gritted her teeth and pressed on, determined to move forward. The nanny quickly draped a thick shawl over Ling Xue's shoulders and came to support her, saying nothing but seemingly wanting to help Ling Xue save someone.
As they reached the door without entering, they heard Zhao Gang's laughter echoing from inside. "Haha, Xiu! I've been patient with you for too long. Your former mistress was pregnant and you had to serve her; now that she's given birth, it's time for the master to cherish you! Hahaha!"
Ling Xue pushed the door open and saw Xiu Er in tattered clothing, her back turned to Zhao Gang's robust figure. She was drenched in sweat, biting her lip tightly, her eyes shut as if enduring immense pain.
Upon seeing Ling Xue, Zhao Gang halted his actions and scrutinized her from head to toe. "Well, well! You were just an ordinary person before, but now it seems you've changed," he remarked. "You know I practice a special Gongfa that requires daily dedication; otherwise, it can be dangerous. These maidens can't withstand it. Since she is yours, I'll let her go today."
With that, Zhao Gang turned and left. Cui Er hurried over to support Xiu Er, who was gasping for breath, her complexion pale and clearly unwell. Ling Xue also stepped forward to help lift Xiu Er up.
