Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou-Chapter 246 - 244: Are the Two Little Babies Illegitimate Children of the Saint Heir?
Regarding the shock of the Thunder Sect disciples, Chu Xin and her brother Chu Chen didn’t mind at all, both keeping their hands behind their backs as if strolling through a market, wandering aimlessly on the third floor.
"Sister, are we done? Can we start now?"
Chu Chen asked in a low voice.
"Yes, we’ve finished exploring the Hidden Skill Pavilion."
Chu Xin thought for a moment and said, "However, before we act, we need to lay down an Illusion Array using Holy Level Illusion Array Stones to ensure they don’t notice us."
"Okay!"
Chu Chen nodded his little head and walked around the third floor again, stealthily dropping one or two Illusion Array Stones when no one was paying attention. After roaming the entire third floor, a compound Illusion Array integrating over a dozen Illusion Array Stones was perfectly formed.
As he manipulated the gestures with his chubby little hands, the compound Illusion Array activated silently. Those disciples still recovering from their shock and those engrossed in selecting Cultivation Methods all fell victim without realizing it.
Moreover, this compound Illusion Array, set up using Holy Level Illusion Array Stones, was difficult to detect even by a Peak Martial Saint momentarily.
"Done!"
Chu Chen patted his chubby hands and said excitedly, "Sister, can we start now?"
"Yes."
Chu Xin nodded her head and then, together with her brother, they waved their little hands, collecting every Top Grade Cultivation Method into the Sumeru Ring, even taking the ones that disciples were currently looking at right out of their hands. Those within the Illusion Array had no idea what was happening.
"Let’s go to the second floor."
After scanning the third floor and confirming nothing had been missed, Chu Xin then moved down to the second floor while Chu Chen went directly to the first floor.
As before, they wandered aimlessly through the market, dropping Holy Level Illusion Array Stones until the compound Illusion Array was activated silently, sweeping away all the Cultivation Methods on the first and second floors without any disciple noticing anything amiss.
"Let’s go to the Treasure Pavilion."
Chu Xin, acting as if nothing had happened, led Chu Chen out of the Hidden Skill Pavilion.
"Did you select so quickly?"
The Guardian, leisurely drinking his wine, saw the two little tots coming out so soon and couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Chu Chen scratched his head and said innocently, "Grandpa, we can’t read."
"..."
The Guardian paused his drinking, staring at the two little tots for a long time. It was normal for three or four-year-olds not to be able to read.
But, unable to read and yet holding the Saint Son Token to select Cultivation Methods? And to pay three hours of Sect contribution all at once as if the Saint Son’s Sect contribution came easily?
Well, being the illegitimate children of the Saint Son after all, he should help them out, he thought.
With that thought, the Guardian laughed and said, "How about I help you select a couple of Cultivation Methods?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xin quickly shook her head and waved her hands, "No need, grandpa. We didn’t look around for long, so could you please return our Sect contribution to us?"
"Return the Sect contribution?"
The Guardian was stunned, having never heard such a request in his hundred years as a Guardian Elder.
"Can’t it be returned?"
Chu Xin blinked her round eyes, her tiny face looking puzzled yet adorably dumbfounded.
"Of course it can’t be returned."
The Guardian shook his head, but then, with a gleam in his eye, he smiled, "However, I can personally transfer some Sect contribution to you."
As a Guardian Elder, he received a significant amount of Sect contribution every year, and at his level, the contents of the Treasure Pavilion and the Hidden Skill Pavilion were of no use to him, so transferring some Sect contribution to the two little tots didn’t affect him much.
These two little tots holding the Saint Son’s Token, whether they were the Saint Son’s illegitimate children or not, had a close connection to the Saint Son, and getting on their good side was beneficial for him.
"Thank you, Grandpa,"
Chu Xin said, thanking the elder before handing over the Token to the Guardian.
The Guardian took out his own Sect Token and pointed a finger at it, a beam of light drifted from his token and entered the Saint Son Token.
"All done," the Guardian said with a smile.
"Thank you, Grandpa, goodbye, Grandpa."
Chu Xin and Chu Chen waved to the Guardian and then, with their little legs, hopped and skipped away.
"Such adorable little darlings,"
Watching the cheerful figures of the siblings, the Guardian’s face broke into a smile, "Once the Saint Son becomes the Holy Master, having these little darlings speak a word or two for oneself will make becoming the confidant of the new Holy Master much easier."
Being a Guardian Elder, though seemingly high in status, was actually a role few wished to occupy. Because the Guardian Elder needed to always stay here, unable to go anywhere else--not only was it boring and tedious, but it also precluded the chance to seek opportunities for breakthroughs.
If he could become the confidant of the new Holy Master, he would be able to cast off the status of the Guardian Elder and go wherever he wished.
Little did he know, these two little darlings were not an opportunity to escape his predicament, but rather little demons come to unleash disaster upon him.
Following the route previously directed by Lei Wanjun, the siblings visited the Treasure Pavilion, Elixir Pill Pavilion, and the Spiritual Medicine Garden in succession. At each location, they dropped dozens of Top Grade Illusion Array Stones to set up complex arrays, and subsequently put all the treasures, elixirs, and spiritual herbs inside the Sumeru Ring.
"Sister, where to next? The Demon Beast Garden or the Forbidden Land?" Chu Chen asked excitedly.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Xin said, "Let’s go to the Forbidden Land. We have eaten plenty of Demon Beasts, but Thunder Fruits are unique to the Thunder Sect and can’t be found anywhere else."
"Right, then let’s devour all the Thunder Fruits, no, empty out all the Thunder Trees,"
Chu Chen, with his chubby little hand waving, dashed off.
"Dummy, wrong way, it’s this way,"
Chu Xin, slapping her smooth forehead, said with a speechless expression.
"Oh oh!"
Chu Chen scratched his topknot and then flew back, chuckling, "Sister, maybe you should lead the way."
Chu Xin rolled her eyes at him and said with annoyance, "Dad was right, you’re good for nothing except chopping and grilling."
Chu Chen pouted, mumbling, "The rest is too hard, nowhere near as fun as chopping and grilling."
Chu Xin rubbed her forehead, finally understanding the frustration their father had felt when teaching her brother. In their father’s words, utterly hopeless.
"Let’s go,"
With a sigh akin to an adult, Chu Xin shot through the air.
"Wait for me,"
Chu Chen hurriedly followed.

"Halt, entry to the Thunder Sect Forbidden Land is not allowed,"
Just as they arrived at the entrance of the Forbidden Land, they were stopped by two Forbidden Land Guards.
These Forbidden Land Guards actually had the strength of early-stage Martial Saints--a level that would be enough to be an Elder in other factions, and in many smaller factions, even the Sect Master was at this level. Yet the Thunder Sect was merely using them as guards for the Forbidden Land.
"Uncle, we are here to exchange for Thunder Fruits,"
Chu Xin handed over Lei Wanjun’s Sect Token.
"A Saint Son Token?"
The two Forbidden Land Guards were taken aback, looked closely at the token, and then lowered their gaze to the two little darlings in front of them, secretly guessing, "Could these two little darlings holding a Saint Son’s Token actually be the illegitimate children of the Saint Son?"
