Chapter 351: Chapter 349: It’s Okay, He Loves to Listen!
“How do you plan to deal with Shi Feifei?” Sally said as she stuffed food into her mouth.
Both pregnancies had already reached their rapid development stage, and according to Xiaomei, she needed to eat a lot! So much that she felt like crying.
“Wu Liye has taken her back home,” Frans replied, “and they are preparing to form an alliance with the Gouldings by marrying her off to Kales, the Holy Executor you met during the Holy War.”
Sally sipped some meat soup boiled with Spiritual Liquid, “With this alliance, won’t their power be too great? Could it affect you?”
“It’s still within controllable limits.”
“Take it slowly then. What about Luo Chuan, has it been resolved?”
“Luo Chuan’s intentions have been clear since ten thousand years ago; he wants to eliminate the Offspring System from the continent. As for the Abyssal Beasts, it is better to guide them than to block them. I will give him five desolate and barren continents for the Abyssal Beasts to reproduce and thrive. If they can evolve into Demi-Spiritual Beasts and stop raiding the Beast Clan, it might be worth a try.”
“Keep an eye on it; he may not be able to control all the Abyssal Beasts.”
“I know.”
“As for the Offspring System, it’s too powerful, affecting the bigger picture with even the slightest change. Besides, the Holy War has just ended; there shouldn’t be another Holy War for at least a few centuries, allowing all the continents to heal and recuperate.”
“You mean to leave it be for now?”
“Yes. Right now, neither you nor I have the strength to contend with the Offspring System, not to mention the contract with the Beast God. But that’s not what really matters; the true terror is the Insect Clan calamity. Until it’s certain not to happen, it’s better to preserve our strength. I do not wish to wander for another ten thousand years.”
“I will never let you leave us again,” Frans said as he cut a piece of fresh fish for Sally.
“Mhm, I’ve had my fill of wandering,” Sally said after trying a bite, then she picked up the plate and started eating freely, too busy to even speak.
Frans looked at her with eyes full of love, “Yanyan eating, you’re just too adorable.”
“… There’s nothing attractive about wolfing down food.” Sally’s pretty face turned slightly red, but her eating pace didn’t slow down in the least…
…
Ethan closed the door of his small diner and entered the Holy Palace.
“What?” He thought he had misheard, “You want me to find rare culinary ingredients?”
“Yes.” Frans gave him a Storage Bag, “There are some Curse Stones inside. I want to stay with Yanyan and can’t go looking for ingredients myself, so I’m asking for your help.”
“Alright, I’ll set off now.”
“You’ve got it tough, we’ll have a drink together when you get back.”
“It’s a deal.”
Ethan went forth on his mission.
When Sally found out, she felt somewhat apologetic, “You sure give your friend orders without any reluctance.”
“He stays cooped up in that little diner every day without stepping out. I feel restless just watching him, so a bit of a push for him to move forward with a task like this is nothing.”
“Okay then.” Sally looked at him and laughed, “You know, your daughter has been quite troublesome lately.”
“Xiaoshi?” Frans immediately became excited.
“Yes, she’s very clever. Among the children, only Xiaoqi can compete with her, the rest are just played around by her.” Sally sighed.
Frans: …Her words almost sounded like she was complaining to him!
No problem, he loved to hear it!
“Xiaojiu loves her comfort, won’t move if she doesn’t have to. Little Shisan loves food, and only the best at that. As long as you cater to their preferences, they are quite obedient. But your daughter, even Xiaomei has a tough time with her; it’s love, hate, and worry all mixed together.”
“Heh, I’ll make sure to educate her properly in the future,” said Frans with a chuckle. His favorite was also this daughter, but the most pampered was Little Shisan. Xiaojiu was destined to be the future Holy King, naturally subject to strict discipline. Whether it was love or pampering, it was always more subtle.
“When you meet her, you’ll understand, this little girl is pretty quirky,” said Sally, rubbing her belly. “I’m hungry.”
Frans nodded, “Alright, I’ll have someone prepare the meal.”
Watching Frans go to prepare the food, Sally took out some elixirs used to enhance talent that she had bought with points.
[Xiaomei, the Spiritual Demon Fetus is alright, isn’t it?] She was always worried about this child, feeling that it wasn’t the right time to be carrying him.
Xiaomei was silent for a while before saying, [Both children are very healthy.]
[Good, as long as they’re healthy.] Sally knew that Xiaomei couldn’t check the talent data of naturally conceived offspring.
Xiaomei hesitated before adding, [Host, the Spiritual Demon Fetus leans more towards the Demon Fetus.]
Sally nodded, [I was thinking the same. Welly’s talent is higher than mine; the child will definitely take after him more. I just didn’t expect it to be not a Human Clan, but of the Demon Clan.]
[Welly’s lineage is also more of the Demon Clan, but he chose to be Human, not Demon.]
[Then this child is going to be somewhat problematic. By the way, Xiaomei, who is Welly’s biological mother? And the Beast World doesn’t seem to have pure humans.]
[Did you forget about the Teleportation Gate, Host? This thing once belonged to the Demon Emperor.]
[The one from the Demon Realm?]
[It’s highly likely.]
[Then she must be a beautiful woman, Welly doesn’t resemble the Demon Emperor in the slightest.]
…
Shi Feifei entered the Holy Palace and followed a Palace Attendant to the Holy Palace Garden.
She saw a pregnant female with a large belly, holding a huge red fruit almost as big as her face, munching on it.
“Your Holiness, the Holy Queen,” Shi Feifei greeted with respect. Although the Holy Queen ceremony hadn’t been held yet, since everyone addressed her as such, she followed the convention.
Sally looked at her and took another bite of the sweet fruit with a ‘crunch~’, “Sit down.”
She could have let her die quietly in the Holy War. But, after all, they came from the same world, and even though not from the same century, there’re still a sense of fellowship among those adrift in a foreign place. In the end, Sally chose to adopt the same attitude as she had with Lena, observing their destinies from the sidelines. Whether they lived or died was none of her concern.
“Well, it’s a bit presumptuous, but I am getting married,” Shi Feifei said somewhat shyly, offering a red, gold-embossed wedding invitation to Sally.
Putting down her fruit, Sally wiped her hands before accepting the invitation, “Congratulations, when is the event?”
“The fifteenth of next month,” Shi Feifei glanced at her bulging belly. “Your Holiness, if it’s inconvenient, it’s fine if you don’t come.”
Sally smiled, “Thank you for your understanding, Feifei, the soon-to-be bride. If I don’t make it, I’ll have His Majesty stop by.”
“Thank you, Your Holiness,” Shi Feifei expressed her gratitude.
Sally looked at her, recalling something, “I heard that you blocked your memories to participate in the Holy War and lived for a year on the Mortal Beast-grade Continent, is that right?”
“Yes,” Shi Feifei’s smile became complicated as she remembered her past, “It was a place called the Shafen Continent. Not far from the Shafen Continent, there’s Tieshan Continent…”
Sally listened quietly.
A rebellious girl, who didn’t want to have children, so she escaped from her own continent to another, where she met another girl who also didn’t want to be a tool for childbirth.
From friendship, the two girls gradually crossed a line… but in the end, they were still defeated by destiny.
The Holy War separated them, without even a chance for a goodbye.
“So now, do you still despise the Offspring System?” Sally asked.
