Chapter 759: Chapter 757: Choose an Auspicious Time for the Child!
Sally had Xiaomei upload the data for the onset of labor to the Main System.
Soon, Sally saw Yan Ze’s hand tremble as he held the trophy, his voice becoming more concise and forceful.
After labor began, the initial contractions were spaced quite far apart and were relatively stable. Having given birth to so many children, she naturally had a good grasp on these things.
The last person Yan Ze thanked, unsurprisingly, was Sally, and he also announced publicly that he would soon become a father.
The crowd erupted into cheers.
For Sally, this was the first time she felt that childbirth was such a grand event.
She was somewhat nervous, but more than that, she was moved, and even when the contractions hit her, she didn’t feel the pain.
After the awards ceremony, there was a dinner.
Sally’s condition made it impossible for her to attend, and being able to sit through until Yan Ze stepped down was already her limit.
After exchanging a few words with his agent and assistant, Yan Ze led Sally out through a private passage.
Sally thought they would return to Yuan Mansion, but to her surprise, Yan Ze took her directly to the Level 12 Civilization World!
In the endless void, there were bubbles, each containing a world with humans, beasts, purely mechanical worlds, living beings, lifeless entities…
Sally raised her hand, wanting to touch a world of beasts.
Yan Ze stopped her, “Giving birth is most important right now, we can visit these worlds later.”
“Are these really worlds?”
“Yes, just like the Beast World you came from.”
Yan Ze picked her up and teleported into a palace.
Sally looked up at the palace whose ceiling was too high to see, “Where is this?”
“My family’s home,” replied Yan Ze, and then he carried Sally into a clean, spacious room.
“Lita, prepare the birthing room,” commanded Yan Ze.
“Yes, master,” a sweet female voice responded.
Soon, the spacious room transformed into a fully equipped birthing room.
Yan Ze placed Sally on the birthing bed.
Sally said, “Every time I give birth, my soul enters a space, very similar to the one we just saw.”
“That is the Soul Space. The System, in self-preservation, prepares it specifically as an absolute protective space for the Host. Even if the body is gone due to external injuries, as long as the soul is alive, the System will not be damaged.”
“So that’s how it is.” Sally lay down and touched her belly, “It doesn’t hurt now.”
“Then rest well,” Yan Ze raised his hand to wipe his brow, “Want to eat something to regain some strength?”
“I’m not hungry. Xiaomei said there was some data she couldn’t see, so she doesn’t know the exact time of delivery. But this baby was conceived with the Pregnancy Elixir, there should be precise data.”
“It is the exact time of birth which matters to destiny; I blocked it.”
“…Oh, like the Eight Characters of Birth.”
“That’s one way to understand it. Its time of birth is related to its future status and the resources it will be able to access. Remember Dr. X?”
“Dr. X… the one from the Ice and Fire World?”
“Right. He was my twin, born just a minute before me. Based on his time of birth, my father determined he had Earth Talent and, as a lower-class citizen, exiled him to the Earth Realm.”
But for the mother, that was her first child; she valued him more emotionally and, given that he was an Earth Talent, it would be better for him to die in the Earth Realm than to suffer if he were to survive by luck.
So she chose to exile me, who was deemed a genius.
But X knew about my existence, so he sent people to watch me in the Earth Realm.
Upon learning that I had developed the World System, he claimed it as his own and told my father it was his own creation. Under his influence, I, as his shadow, managed the System World until I accidentally discovered the truth.
I went to confront my mother, and the result was, X teamed up with her to exile me.
Originally, my mother intended to make me disappear completely, but I threatened X that if I died, the World System would collapse.
They feared damaging the useful tool, and ultimately they did not kill me. But they transplanted the memories from my brain into X, and without those memories, I was eventually exiled to an unknown world.
Now that I think about it, I might even have to thank them, otherwise, I would never have met you.
And even more so… I’m about to have my own child!”
Sally took his hand, “When you put it that way, I should thank Qin Mo. If he hadn’t betrayed me back then, how could I have met Xiaomei?”
Yan Ze leaned down to kiss her lips but suddenly felt her bite down on his!
He noticed Sally’s breath tighten abruptly and bore the pain without moving.
After about ten or so seconds, Sally released him and, looking at the blood on the corner of his lips, apologized, “I’m sorry, I…”
“It’s okay, you can keep biting,” Yan Ze teased with a playful lick of the blood, in a seductive manner.
Sally swallowed hard, “What’s the Earth Realm?”
“The rulers of the Level 12 Civilization are the Yuanzhou Clan. By the way, my father is Duke Yan Youlan of the Yuanzhou Clan. The place we are in now is the Heavenly Realm — the core world of the Yuanzhou Clan. The Earth Realm is similar to the Monster Beast Realm while the Heavenly Realm is akin to the Divine Realm; perhaps that will help you understand better.”
“Ah, I see. So originally, from the Divine Realm, you were thrown into the Monster Beast Realm… Ah~” Sally clutched the handle of the birthing bed, enduring waves of intense pain.
Yan Ze held her hand, “The Offspring System was originally developed for the kings of the Yuanzhou Clan. The ultimate goal of the Holy War was to find an Offspring System capable of bearing children for the king. Actually, I only developed a single Offspring System, which is Xiaomei, or 002. The other Offspring Systems were developed by X after he transplanted my memories.”
“No wonder Xiaomei is different from the rest. The others don’t have upgrade capabilities or creativity.”
“The upgrade functionality was something I intended to develop for Xiaomei but didn’t get the chance. At the time, I was in a rush to ask my mother about my origins, so I just added an Ark System to Xiaomei’s setup. The source code for the upgrade functionality was hidden within the Ark System. Later, Xiaomei unlocked the source code and thus completed the development of her upgrade functionality.”
“That source code, was it your way of making Xiaomei avenge you, to get back at the former Main System Commander X?”
“Heh~ A bit of a wicked pleasure on my part, ensuring X wouldn’t scrutinize the data hidden behind the 002 command and would just destroy her. I’d rather have all my hard work destroyed than let him exploit them.”
“Then what about time reversal, to you?”
“Time reversal has nothing to do with the time within the System World. Yet, it’s this seemingly unrelated aspect that provided my opportunity for a turnaround.”
“Because I, who became bound to Xiaomei, met you?”
“That’s right,” Yan Ze said, kissing Sally’s forehead, full of gratitude.
Sally gripped his hand, taking deep breaths, before a severe bout of downward pain struck, “Choose an auspicious time for the child!”
“Sure!” Yan Ze said with a smile.
To him, no matter when the child was born, it was his greatest treasure, with no distinction between Earth Talent and genius.

…
[This last child, the rewards seem really impressive, huh.] Sally said to Xiaomei.
Xiaomei’s voice trembled with excitement, like a debt-ridden pauper who’d suddenly struck it rich, [I am especially satisfied with these three children!]
