Chapter 498: Chapter 496: Only if I’m Willing
…
Divine Realm, Tianhu Mountain.
You Hao set up a cool pavilion at the entrance to the Fox Hole.
Every day, cradling two Nine Heavens Kunpeng Eggs and a Little Black Mouse, he lay on the lounging chair beneath the pavilion, utterly content and satisfied.
“Divine Monarch, shouldn’t we go back? We’re blocking the entrance to the Heavenly Fox’s Hole. If they come back, we might have yet another house demolition and tree uprooting. It’s rather inappropriate,” Uncle Xiang advised.
You Hao stroked Little Beibei, “Let them demolish. I was thinking of building a new house, even prettier than before. It must not fall short of the Beast Emperor’s Palace.”
“Divine Monarch…” Uncle Xiang wanted to urge further, but sensing something, he looked up at the sky and saw a strange object descending from above, sharp at both ends and wider in the middle, resembling a weaver’s shuttle.
It finally landed precisely on the open ground in front of the Fox Hole.
Sally got out from inside and waved, “I’m back now.”
Not just Uncle Xiang, but even You Hao gaped in astonishment, “Yanyan, what is this?”
“I went on a mission, Huanhuan had a sudden realization, she’s in retreat inside,” Sally replied.
Curious, You Hao peered into the Shuttler, and sure enough, Qing Linghuan was meditating deeply, totally unaware of what was happening outside.
“Such a sudden realization at his old age, quite remarkable!”
Sally, “…”
He’s older than him, right?
Taking Little Beibei from his arms, “The little guy has grown quite a bit, chubby and round.” A little patch of fat had even formed on its belly.
“It’s because you gave birth so well.” You Hao gazed at her intensely, almost threadily.
Sally gave a light flutter of her lashes in response, flirting back, “Not possible~ I’m pregnant.”
Others were manageable, but You Hao was too wild, she couldn’t handle it now.
You Hao was startled, and after a while, turned to look at her belly, “…The fox’s?”
“Mhm.” Sally settled down on the lounging chair he’d previously been lying on, adjusting the angle comfortably and closing her eyes, “It’s so much more comfortable down here.”
“Yanyan… all the Ancient Divine Clan in the Divine Realm are looking for you. If they find out how easily you’ve conceived a Divine Embryo, it could cause great chaos.”
“Easily?” Sally shook her head, “It’s not easy at all. It requires my willingness! Whether I wish to conceive now is entirely up to me. If I don’t want to, nobody can force me.”
Isn’t that easy! So many want to conceive but can’t…
“Why have another child with that stinking fox?” His advantage of having one more child would be gone!
“What you said isn’t true, Huanhuan isn’t smelly at all; he’s quite fragrant and has a thing for cleanliness. He can’t tolerate other people’s marks on me,” Sally said, smiling.
But Qing Linghuan had endured it, perhaps he stayed with her before for the sake of Little Shisi and Little Shiwu. Now, he truly considered her his partner. No matter where she went, he would follow with the children, and this affection was something she could not ignore, otherwise, this pregnancy wouldn’t have happened naturally.
“I can’t tolerate it either,” You Hao replied. “Then you should have another one for me too.”
“Your first and second are still unhatched.” Sally looked at Little Beibei in her hands, who was licking her palm.
With a thought, a piece of jerky appeared in her palm.
Little Beibei looked at the jerky in surprise, sniffed it, then tentatively took a bite… and her eyes widened in astonishment!
Sally couldn’t help but chuckle at her reaction, “Try it, is it tasty?”
After munching on a piece and swallowing it, Little Beibei eagerly continued to devour it.
“The Rat Clan likes dry and hard food that makes a satisfying crunch. Stock up on some for it,” Sally took another nut.
Little Beibei liked it even more, and after a few crunchy bites, she was done, then looked at Sally with expectant eyes.
Sally handed her a strip of jerky, and Little Beibei chewed it with delight.
You Hao looked at her in surprise, “I’ve always fed her milk. Can she actually eat solid food?”
“Once they have teeth they can eat… How long have you been back in the Divine Realm?” asked Sally.
“Half a year now, and tomorrow is the final battle in the Divine War. So far, the Divine Clan has ten wins and nine losses,” You Hao told Sally.
Sally asked Xiaomei, “I wasn’t in District Nineteen for very long, was I?”
Xiaomei replied, “Originally, it could have been faster to return, but Qing Linghuan had an epiphany, and the Host said to fly more steadily, so it was slower.”
“Right, I took a long nap in between, so now the timeline is all fuzzy to me.”
“So the Asura Realm is nine wins, ten losses,” Sally said, looking at You Hao, “If the Asura Realm wins tomorrow, everything will stay the same, and no one will get the chance of freedom in the Lower Realm.”
“Yes. But the Divine Monarch of the Dragon Domain entering the field tomorrow is Xuan Qiu, who is a new appointee from the Ancient Divine Clan. He is no less powerful than me and has a great chance of winning.”
“A new appointee? What about the previous one?”
“The previous one was Jiang Bi, but three months ago, the Great Elder of the Primordial Qilin Clan suddenly came out of seclusion, led people to the Dragon Domain to clean house, bound his direct disciple Jiang Bi, and publicly executed his most trusted guest officer Ruan Lang with a thunder strike. Uncle Xiang inquired later and said that Jiang Bi was sent to the Bone-Penetrating Cliff, a place the Primordial Qilin Clan uses to punish rebels. If he didn’t die, he’d lose at least half his life.”
When the topic of Primordial Qilin came up, Sally thought of her own son, “Xiaomei, Little Shier is alright, isn’t he?”
Xiaomei responded, “Little Shier has finished his seclusion and is now very active.”
Sally paused, then requested, “Summon him over.”
She felt that Jiang Bi’s punishment was somewhat odd and suspected Little Shier might know something. Moreover, she hadn’t seen Little Shier for some time and was really missing him.
“Alright, Host,” Xiaomei answered, “Then, may Little Shier play in the game for a few days? I’ve developed a new storyline.”
“Sure, wake up Little Shisi and Little Shiwu as well,” Sally said.
“Yes, Host.”
Sally released Little Shisi, Little Shiwu, and Little Shier from the System Space.
Little Shisi and Little Shiwu stretched out big yawns, rubbed their eyes… but when they saw Little Shier was there, they instantly perked up.
“Brother Shier, you’re back… Huh? Isn’t this my home?” Little Shiwu looked around the familiar Fox Hole, spotted Sally, and immediately ran over to her to act spoiled.
Sally hugged her and kissed her, then placed Little Beibei on her back, “Take your little sister with you and play.”
Little Shiwu protected Little Beibei with her Divine Power.
Little Shier, who had been busy reading and doing exercises, was suddenly summoned, still a bit dazed, but when he saw Sally, he let out a wild cry and pounced on her. 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
“Mom~ Did you get the letter I wrote? Why didn’t you summon me? I missed you so much. How is Dad doing…?”
Sally, embracing the overly enthusiastic Little Shier filled with questions, reassured him, “My dear~ Mom missed you too, but you were in seclusion, so I didn’t want to disturb you. Now that you’re awake, Mom summoned you right away.”
“Yeah! Mom, I want to take the monthly exam, I’ve been studying hard.”
“Of course, Mom will summon your brothers and sisters to the Divine Realm and you can take the monthly exam here, how about that?”
Little Shisi walked up to Little Shier with small steps, sniffed the strong scent of ink on him, and snorted, “Showing off! Be careful not to embarrass yourself if you don’t do well!”
Then, swaying his fluffy and beautiful tail with a dignified air, he walked into the Fox Hole…
But the next instant upon entering the den, he Teleported at high speed to his and Little Shiwu’s book cave, working hard to catch up on studies!
