Chapter 207 Children
At the Leng family's Spirit Medicine Pavilion, the clan's physician elder was a young old man in the late Golden Core stage. Qiu Yue stood guard at the pavilion's entrance. Leng Huan had deliberately avoided Fu Xun today to seek a consultation with the clan physician.
"Congratulations, Miss! You're over a month pregnant..." The elder checked Leng Huan's pulse and confirmed that she was in good health. He stroked her beard and nodded. "Yes, the fetal breathing is still shallow, but everything else is fine. Miss is very healthy."
"..." Seeing the elder's gratified expression, Leng Huan's anxiety finally subsided.
He hastily said "thank you" and fled. With half a month to go before Leng Yan's wedding, Leng Huan had already prepared everything, waiting only to attend the ceremony and then depart for the Ice Plains.
This disrupted her plans again. She had only noticed fluctuations in her spiritual energy, and she tried to convince herself not to think about it. After a few days, she finally went to the elder to have her pulse checked.
No, my goodness, wasn't it agreed that it wouldn't be easy for her to get pregnant?
Leng Huan looked up at the sky, silently giving a friendly thumbs-up.
Qiuyue looked up at the sky and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"Plans can't keep up with changes." Leng Huan sighed and turned to leave. Qiu Yue hurriedly followed.
"Kid, kid, I really didn't want to have a second child~ Hey, Leng Huan's heart is full of waiting for Yun Du to grow up so that she can be free."
Suddenly, I feel like Fu Xun isn't reliable either. How could someone with their cultivation level possibly...?
"Miss, what brings you to the training ground? Aren't you going back?"
"It's nothing, I just want to take a walk and stroll around the park."
Leng Huan crossed the square via the edge path without disturbing the deacon instructing the disciples on their homework.
With the arrival of spring, the garden is filled with auspicious trees and flowers. Leng Huan stands in the viewing pavilion, where he is greeted by a riot of colorful flowers. He takes a deep breath and smells the rich fragrance of winter plum blossoms from the north.
Feeling a bit better, Leng Huan sat down against the railing, put his hands in his pockets, and quietly touched his stomach. It was still flat. Who knew that another little life was growing inside?
My mind seems to be filled with everything, yet also with nothing at all; my thoughts are like tangled yet drifting smoke, hard to define.
As noon approached, the sunlight fell upon her, warm and comforting. Leng Huan suddenly took out a magic mirror, and with a flick of his spiritual energy, the mirror finally reflected her face.
Leng Huan looked at herself, facing her reflection in the mirror. The fairy-like beauty in her eyes and brows carried a hint of memories of time.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, her clear eyes brimming with emotion, her expression calm, even aloof. A smile suddenly appeared on her fair face, then quickly faded as she put away the mirror.
Looking up at the seemingly endless mansion of the Leng family, Leng Huan felt a pang of melancholy. Would cultivating immortality make one forget about home?
Is someone as nostalgic as her... unsuitable for cultivating immortality...?
and many more!
Leng Huan's expression suddenly changed to one of surprise.
Was I ever this sentimental before?
Quack?
Leng Huan suddenly stood up, wondering what he was thinking!
Who cares about ascension, the past, or the future... as long as you live each day as you earn it, then there's absolutely no problem.
All my worries and troubles have disappeared!
Qiuyue: "Young Miss, shall we go back?"
"Okay, go see if Yun Du has returned."
Fu Xun took him to the Leng Family Academy for early childhood education this morning, and the "early education" should be almost over by now.
When they arrived at the training ground, the disciples had already finished their lessons and dispersed, but a group of people were walking towards them.
"The eldest young master and the fifth young lady have returned from their training!" a disciple shouted.
Leng Huan looked up and saw Leng Feng and Leng Yan leading their disciples over from afar. Ten days ago, they went to the Beilan Forest, which was 600 miles away, for training.
"Sister Xue!" Leng Yan saw her and ran over happily. "Are you alone? Where's Yun Du?"
"Hmm, he didn't come. Is your training going smoothly?" Leng Huan asked curiously.
“It went smoothly. By the way…” Leng Yan suddenly whispered, “I think I saw Senior Shen Hanyan earlier.”
"Huh?" Leng Huan asked in surprise, "Where did you see that?"
"It's just outside the Northern Forest, there's a rocky valley to the west. I think she went there, but she was too fast, I didn't see her clearly."
The Northern Mist Forest is particularly vast, with continuous mountain ranges. Many low-level cultivators go there to train, but it's unclear why Shen Hanyan went north alone.
"Hmm, it seems like he's all alone."
So Wang Chen didn't come with her? Leng Huan stroked her chin. Logically, this shouldn't be the case. Could it be that Wang Chen really parted ways with her?
-
At this moment, a hundred miles away from the North Mist Forest, in the town of Black Rock, Wang Chen squatted in front of a Golden Core cultivator's stall at the market. He bought some demon beast bones and scales that could be used as materials for making arrays, and casually inquired with the vendor:
"You've been selling things in this town for so long, have you seen the purple-clad fairy who arrived a few days ago? She's probably the spiritual healer from Xinyi Valley."
Shen Hanyan usually disguised herself as a disciple of Xinyi Valley when she went out, making her very conspicuous. This small town was formed by trade, bustling with people, and it was also the last stop Wang Chen tracked down.
The Golden Elixir Boss tidied up his stall. Seeing how generous he was, he thought for a moment and said, "Then you've come to the right person. I've been here for a month, and about three days ago, a fairy in purple did indeed come."
She had browsed this market; many people came here to train in the North Mist Forest. Fellow Daoist, you might want to try asking at those regular stalls again.”
Wang Chen thanked her and went to a general store. After asking the owner, he learned that a fairy in purple had bought a lot of supplies needed for her training.
"That fairy was exceptionally beautiful, dressed in purple. I haven't seen someone like her in a long time. Judging from the items she bought, she's probably going to Beilan."
"Thank you for letting me know." Wang Chen understood, sighed, and had no choice but to head towards the North Mist Forest.
If anything happens to Granny Shen, the Valley Master of Xinyi will kill her!
At that time, Shen Hanyan was in seclusion in the Misty Immortal City for three months and broke through to the late stage of the Golden Core realm. After emerging from seclusion, she went straight north. Wang Chen was caught off guard and was knocked down by her. He fell into a deep sleep for two days and when he woke up, she was nowhere to be found.
Wang Chen regretted it, sitting on the leaf boat and reflecting on his actions: "I should have known better than to say such heartless things..."
She said all sorts of nonsense, such as "I only see you as a younger sister," "We're only good friends," and "We'll break off the engagement once she meets a good man."
Even Miss Xinyi Valley has her pride; how could she not run away?
System: "Surprised host, you have gained the experience of a wife-chasing-after-the-cremation ordeal."
"No way, how can there be such a terrible system like you, gloating over the host's misfortune? I'm going to file a complaint against you!" Wang Chen was already annoyed, and this damn system was even more inhuman.
System: "We suggest the host let nature take its course."
Wang Chen rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache: "I suggest you answer the question I asked you earlier first. Once the male lead's destruction value is reduced to zero, can I really go back to my hometown? Can I go back to the time before the accident happened?"
The system changed the subject, saying, "It is possible to return to Earth, but we suggest you achieve the required milestones first."
Wang Chen felt a wave of disappointment. Every time he asked the system, it gave him the same answer, and he had already guessed the outcome. Now, clinging to his last hope, he asked, "Can you tell me if I can go back to before the car accident, retain all my memories of being reborn, and change my fate?"
System: "After achieving the goal, the host can leave this world... *zzzz*... System malfunction detected. The system will automatically go into hibernation for 24 hours. Please pray for your safety..."
Wang Chen: "Hey! System? System..."
His mind went completely silent, the panel was utterly dark, and even Wang Chen, with his good temper, couldn't hold back any longer. He started swearing: "You son of a bitch...?! You idiot %&..."
He had shown harmony and care for the system's ancestors for eighteen generations, and then fell silent.
He roughly guessed that the system was not of a high level and that it might not be able to send him back to his hometown, or even retain his memories of the time travel. If he got into another car accident, wouldn't it all be for nothing?
Perhaps some causes and effects were predetermined.
