Chapter 386 Sweet Treats
Twenty days have passed since Shen Yao's pregnancy was discovered.
With her father's help, Feng Yu created a gestation chamber for nurturing fetuses.
They're just waiting for the baby in her womb to grow a little bigger before transferring it to the maternity ward.
However, the fetus grows extremely slowly, abnormally slowly.
From its initial tiny size when it was discovered, it is now only the size of a grain of rice.
An ordinary female cultivator would show her pregnancy within twenty days.
Jiang Ming consulted many experienced pharmacists, but none of them could find the cause.
The fetal heartbeat is steady and strong, and the baby is very active.
However, its development is extremely slow.
In addition to having a larger appetite, Shen Yao also felt sleepy and often vomited at night.
Jiang Ming asked her, "Was it like this when you were pregnant with Shi Bao?"
Once you tell one lie, you have to tell more to cover it up.
Shen Yao had no choice but to lie: "I didn't have any symptoms when I was pregnant with Shi Bao, and I only found out I was pregnant after the baby was born."
She covered up her lie so easily, but it made Jiang Ming feel incredibly uncomfortable.
He felt guilty for not protecting her in the Thunderous Secret Realm.
I also blame myself for not discovering her in Chongcheng sooner.
After analyzing the situation with the pharmacists, they unanimously agreed that Shen Yao's constitution was special and her gestation method was different from that of other female cultivators.
We can only observe for now.
When he left, he left two pharmacists behind: "Lian Yi and Xu Qin stay here, just in case. If anything happens, send me a message and I will come immediately."
Shen Yao felt sleepy again, so she hummed in agreement, closed her eyes, and fell asleep instantly.
Jiang Ming was genuinely worried and needed to urge the Second Elder to come to Chongcheng as soon as possible.
He didn't wait to awaken as an Immortal Venerable. Once the Second Elder arrived in Chongcheng, he wanted to complete the handover as quickly as possible and come to be with her.
Feng Yu felt guilty because she had figured out how to use the gestation chamber, but she couldn't get the baby out.
He often apologized to Shen Yao, regretting that he shouldn't have been so lustful, which caused her to suffer the pain of pregnancy.
Shen Yao had already figured it out; she couldn't blame him entirely, after all, she had also indulged in pleasure.
Pregnancy is so difficult for high-ranking couples; many couples go for hundreds or even thousands of years without having children.
She was still a nun and thought she couldn't have children, but who knew she would get pregnant so easily.
Since you're already pregnant, you have to give birth properly, no matter how much suffering you have to endure.
In fact, she was originally unable to conceive, but after practicing the "Thirteen Forms of Godslaying," her appearance changed to resemble that of the Divine Venerable Ningyao, and her physique also changed.
But they didn't know any of this.
Knowing that her pregnancy was unusual, Tu Xiaoxiao stopped being angry with her and returned to being a caring and understanding husband.
The one who loves more always gives in first; there's no way around it.
It's because he loves her.
They traveled around, played, and stopped frequently, and still arrived in Licheng in a month.
Licheng is actually a city of peach blossoms.
Peach trees grew extensively from ten miles outside the city to inside the city itself.
The peach blossoms are in full bloom.
When they arrived at the North Gate, they didn't rush in but first strolled around the peach grove outside.
Licheng was taken back three years ago. Tu Xiaoxiao explained, "Back then, all the peach trees inside and outside the city withered and died, and were covered with bloodworms."
"Father set up several large formations in the air. The formations operated for nearly a month before the bloodworms inside and outside Licheng, including in the soil, were completely cleared away."
"The peach grove you see now was replanted by the city's residents and spontaneously nurtured by cultivators with wood spirit roots."
It's truly remarkable that it has recovered to this extent.
In the vast peach orchard, each peach blossom was different: some were still buds, some were withering, some were in full bloom, and some were only half open...
The peach blossoms, pink and white, are all different, yet they meet on the branches.
I wish I could transform into a peach blossom fairy, half-concealing my drooping petals and half-shyly blushing.
The fragrance of flowers was pleasant to Shen Yao, but it made her sleepy after a while.
Sleepiness came suddenly, she stopped walking, leaned on Feng Yu's shoulder, and fell asleep.
Feng Yu carefully picked her up, her heart softening completely.
Lianyi smiled and said, "Of all the pregnant women we've cared for, Shen Xianzun is the most sleepy."
Tu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly: "Isn't being sleepy a bad thing?"
Xu Qin, being older, spoke more calmly: "It's a good thing for pregnant women to be sleepy. The more they sleep, the earlier the baby will wake up and the higher their talent will be."
It turned out to be the case.
Hearing this, everyone was relieved.
Tu Xiaoxiao waved her hand and placed a soft couch under the peach tree: "Since she feels comfortable with the scent of peach blossoms, let her sleep here."
The soft couch was made of sunken wood, and its wide legs sank into the ground, crushing large patches of rotten peach blossoms.
It's still early, the sunlight is warm and gentle today, and there's no wind in the woods, making it a good time for a short rest.
Feng Yu placed her on the couch, spread out a thin blanket to cover her, and then sat by the couch to watch over her.
As her pregnancy progressed, her sleeping posture improved significantly; recently, whatever position she slept in, she would wake up in the same position.
Pink and white petals fell without wind, and Feng Yu gently stroked her crescent-shaped eyebrows, helping her to sleep more peacefully.
Lianyi and Xu Qin exchanged a smile. Ever since they stayed to take care of Shen Xianzun, they had been enjoying each other's company every day.
Although this Wind Immortal Emperor was not talkative, he had a very gentle personality.
Look at his every move towards Shen Xianzun, it's as gentle as water.
The sweetness between them is amazing.
Master Jiang also comes over several times a day, showing concern for everyone's well-being and attending to every little detail.
Rumors circulated that the Wind God Hall Master Jiang of the True God Sect was incredibly tyrannical and terrifying, and the two women were terrified when they were summoned to the Wind God Hall.
When I first met Master Jiang, I was intimidated by his cold and gloomy demeanor.
Unexpectedly, the immortal lord who was rumored to be even more ruthless than evil cultivators was actually as gentle as silk in front of Immortal Venerable Shen.
So sweet.
And then there's the Fox Emperor, even though he's a demon.
But it was quite different from the demons they had imagined.
They are not cunning, wicked, greedy, or unreasonable people.
On the contrary, they were more sensible and knew when to advance and retreat than many of the immortal lords they had encountered.
It is said that the call for harmonious coexistence between immortals and demons in recent years began with this Fox Emperor helping the immortals guard the border.
Why would the mighty Fox Emperor help the Immortal Clan guard the border?
They couldn't understand it before, but now they do: it's all for love.
It's not the conspiracy theory circulating in the public.
This candy is so sweet.
Two pharmacists sat under a peach tree, cracking candy, their eyes sparkling.
Not daring to whisper, the two communicated face-to-face, discussing which of the three fine gentlemen Shen Xianzun preferred...
They were chatting really well at first, it was so sweet and romantic, it was so romantic!
As they chatted... their tone of voice suddenly changed.
As fairies, they both agreed to rank the fox demon third, and then argued about who should be first.
Lianyi said that Hall Master Jiang was better, and Shen Xianzun preferred Hall Master Jiang. All the children were born to Hall Master Jiang first.
Xu Qin said that Shen Xianzun clearly preferred Feng Xiandi.
The two argued and argued, which turned into a quarrel.
Neither of them could persuade the other to change their mind.
When Shen Yao woke up, the two of them were ignoring each other, and their sisterly relationship had almost completely broken down.
On the way into the city, Shen Yao noticed something was amiss.
Her two pharmacists haven't gotten along well since she woke up.
These two sisters usually walk hand in hand.
They walked together, but there was a large gap between them. They turned their faces to look at each other instead of each other.
It's like everyone's on their own, with the road leading to the sky.
Shen Yao tugged at Feng Yu's sleeve and asked softly, "Did they ever argue while I was sleeping?"
Feng Yu shook her head to indicate that she did not know: "I was watching you the whole time and didn't notice them."
Shen Yao then asked Tu Xiaoxiao, "What happened to them?"
The two pharmacists sat under the tree, constantly exchanging messages, behaving strangely. Tu Xiaoxiao used his spiritual sense to see their conversation clearly, but he didn't say anything.
They dare to put him at the very end; they must have too much free time.
Tu Xiaoxiao grasped Shen Yao's left hand and said without any hesitation, "Yao Yao, don't worry about them. I suddenly have a question for you, and you have to answer it truthfully."
Shen Yao told him to ask.
As soon as Tu Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, Lian Yi and Xu Qin wished they could tear their ears off to listen.
"Between me, Feng Yu, and Jiang Ming, who do you like more?"
