He'd rather run than be turned into a cannon fodder for the broken engagement.

Chapter 151...!

Just as Leng Huan felt his water break, the restriction was suddenly triggered. He was startled, and his face turned pale instantly.

In a panic, he blurted out, "Don't come in!"

But Fu Xun was very fast, easily breaking through the restrictions and appearing in the cave. Hearing this, he paused and stopped outside the screen.

"I'm sorry! I'm late. How are you?" Fu Xun said, and was about to walk over again.

Leng Huan was so shocked that he couldn't feel the pain anymore. He was sweating profusely and shouted angrily, "Don't come in!"

"Hiss... I can manage on my own, don't bother me, you'll distract me!"

Fu Xun clenched his fist: "But you're all alone..."

Leng Huan was terrified that he would come in, so she gritted her teeth and threatened, "Don't come in before I tell you to. If you dare to disobey, I'll never talk to you again!"

Not understanding why she was so resistant, Fu Xun had no choice but to back down, take a deep breath and agree: "Okay, don't be angry, I'll stay here with you."

As long as he doesn't come to the delivery room, Leng Huan doesn't care about him. He won't listen to her even if she tells him to leave. She just wants to avoid seeing her in such a disheveled state.

She bit the silk handkerchief tightly into her mouth, then closed her eyes...

Separated by a screen of mountains and water, Fu Xun listened to the suppressed cries of pain from the person inside, and felt a strange emptiness in his heart. All the disturbances faded away, and only the thought of hoping that Leng Huan would be safe and sound lingered in his mind.

I don't know how much time passed, but a faint smell of blood wafted in the air. The sky had darkened, and suddenly a bright shooting star streaked across the night sky, its light twinkling, and soon the sky was filled with stars.

“Waaaaah—” The loud cry of a baby finally rang out in the cave.

"Leng Huan?" Fu Xun was excited, but stopped in his tracks.

A tired, hoarse voice came from behind the screen: "I'm fine, don't move!"

Leng Huan, with an unknown amount of willpower, managed to give birth after great effort. She even managed to clean the baby, wrap her in a small blanket, and allow Fu Xun to enter. She had just covered herself with a blanket to hide the bloodstains and mess.

If she could, she really wanted to just faint and end it all, but damn it, cultivators are resilient, and she didn't faint. She blinked her sore eyes and watched Fu Xun walk out from behind the screen.

Fu Xun's expression was slightly dazed and gentle. She reached out and carefully touched her face, not knowing what to say for a moment. Leng Huan was in a very disheveled state, so she could only awkwardly force a smile: "I... I'm not ready yet. You take the child and go next door first."

The blood and grime on her body hadn't been cleaned up yet, and the pain from pressing her stomach so hard earlier had returned. Now she was experiencing mild contractions and was feeling very uncomfortable, with intense dull pain throughout her body. She didn't want him to be there at all.

Leng Huan always thought she was like a monkey that had fallen into the water, ugly and pitiful. In reality, Fu Xun only felt that she was very weak and had greatly damaged her vitality, not that she was like that.

Her face was pale, and her skin was cold to the touch because she had sweated a lot. Of course, Fu Xun would not listen to her now. It was already a concession he had no choice but to make by respecting her wishes and letting her give birth alone.

"Leng Huan, listen to me now." Fu Xun channeled his spiritual energy into her and only felt relieved after checking that she was alright. He glanced at the baby in the cradle beside him.

Thinking that it was a little small, not dirty, and not ugly, she only glanced at it before looking away, and tidied Leng Huan's messy hair: "Thank you for your hard work."

Leng Huan glanced at the cradle Fu Xun had made himself, his feelings complicated, and whispered, "Mother and child are safe. It's a boy."

With a slight sigh, Leng Huan felt incredibly proud of herself for being both a new mother and a midwife, and she wished herself and her baby a safe delivery. She silently gave herself a thumbs-up.

Having survived this ordeal, what else could possibly defeat her?

Today, Leng Huan remains as upright and indomitable as ever!

next second.

"Wait, wait a minute, what are you doing?!"

Leng Huan gripped the blanket tightly, preventing Fu Xun from moving. "Go! Go now! Take him next door! I don't need him..."

Fu Xun ignored her and continued to pull on her blanket. "Listen to me, you need me now. You shouldn't move around too much right now. I'll clean you up."

what? !

Oh my god!

Leng Huan was almost in tears. He was only wearing his undergarments on his upper body, and his lower body was naked. He hadn't even cleaned himself properly, and his bedding was filthy.

———I strongly resist it.

“I really…can do it myself…” she said, clutching the blanket tightly.

Fu Xun kissed her directly, leaving her stunned. He easily pulled off the blanket and used a hot towel boiled with spiritual spring water to wipe her body. Giving birth was equivalent to being seriously injured, and only a beast would despise her.

Leng Huan froze, then stopped struggling. Fu Xun cleaned her up smoothly, changed her into clean nightgown, and looked up to see that the person who had been silent for so long was now full of tears, but she was biting her lip tightly, puffing out her cheeks, and remained silent.

The room was silent.

Leng Huan: My heart is truly dead.

Fu Xun: Still so stubbornly adorable.

A freshly born baby: sucking on its hands, yum yum yum~

—

He was stubborn, but when he looked at her, tears finally began to flow slowly, trickling down her cheeks and onto the pillow.

Leng Huan really cried —

My heart is filled with a violent cry, but in reality I am quiet and still, only tears flowing silently.

I felt myself shatter gently.

Fu Xun was startled and froze for a moment; this was the first time he had ever seen her cry.

He quickly kissed the corner of her eye: "Leng Huan, why are you crying?"

"...Woo."

"Okay, okay, stop crying, it's bad for your eyes."

"...Woo."

"Don't cry, it's all my fault. I'll listen to you next time, okay?"

"...Waaah!"

My image is gone, and my heart is dead.

It feels like your dream goddess has appeared in front of you, but she has sleepy eyes and hasn't washed her face yet, which is incredibly frustrating.

Although Fu Xun is not a goddess.

Leng Huan silently shed tears.

"Senior sister, don't cry. No matter what happens to you, I will always love you."

He bent down and gently kissed her temple, then picked her up and said as they walked, "Let's go to the master bedroom first."

"Really... everything you're worried about will never happen."

Leng Huan remained silent.

The baby in the cradle licked its lips and made soft, baby noises.

Over there, illuminated by the glowing pearl, a cloaked figure was being carried horizontally, revealing swaying, snow-white ankles. The tall, imposing figure stood firm as a mountain, bowing his head to kiss the person in his arms with tender affection, becoming a silhouette of unwavering devotion.

The master bedroom is just next door, not far away, separated by two stone-carved screens.

...

The baby was born with fair skin, but it had turned slightly red from being exposed to air. Its big, round eyes rolled innocently, and it scratched its face unconsciously because its skin was dry and itchy. Its little mouth licked the swaddling clothes that were brought to its lips, making soft sounds.

The little one was wrapped in a soft, off-white fleece blanket; it was tiny and very pretty.

A moment later, a pair of long, strong hands lifted the swaddled baby from the crib, holding him in a standard position, and returned to the master bedroom, placing him next to his mother.

At this moment, Leng Huan, who had been pretending to be dead with his eyes closed, finally gave up, relaxed his tense nerves, and peacefully closed his eyes.

After staying up for a whole day and night, my adrenaline surged, and all that was left was exhaustion. I really wanted to sleep.

Fu Xun wiped her face, tucked her in, and stood there, meeting the baby's tiny, dark eyes. The father and son, not yet very familiar with each other, stared at each other for a moment. Fu Xun hesitated for a moment, then said softly:

"Where in this world can one cross over? Soaring up to the blue clouds."

"I'll call you Yun Du. As for your surname, it can be Leng, Fu, or Yun. You can choose it yourself when you grow up."

Fu Xun straightened the swaddling clothes, wrapped a small hat in a soft handkerchief, and put it on the baby. He breathed a sigh of relief. He was still inexperienced. He had prepared almost everything for Leng Huan, but not enough for the baby.

Once he was satisfied, he turned around and went to tidy up the delivery room next door, and also took the cradle to the master bedroom.

With the activation of the Cleansing Array, the cave dwelling was finally transformed.

-

Waaaaah———

Hearing a baby crying in his sleep, Leng Huan woke up with a start and instinctively touched his stomach, only to find nothing there!

child?

She's already given birth!

But neither the baby nor Fu Xun were there.

When she tried to sit up, she found that her whole body ached and she couldn't move. She forced herself to circulate her spiritual energy to adjust her muscles and bones, to help the deformities that had occurred during the pregnancy to recover as quickly as possible, and to help her internal organs return to their proper positions.

Damn it, getting pregnant is so hard.

With the pain relieved, Leng Huan slowly got out of bed and moved around. As her Xuan power recovered, the stiffness in her body gradually disappeared, and she moved more nimbly.

The temperature in the cave was just right. Fu Xun had covered her up warmly earlier, and she had even broken a sweat, so he simply changed her clothes by performing a hand seal. Leng Huan was about to go out and take a look when the cave door's restrictions fluctuated after she had only taken two steps. Fu Xun appeared, carrying a swaddled baby wrapped up tightly in swaddling clothes.

He looked up in surprise: "Senior sister, why are you on the ground? Go back and rest." Holding the baby in one arm, he pulled Leng Huan to the master bedroom with the other.

Leng Huan followed him, carefully observing his expression and then his current appearance. A new dad?

Has Long Aotian become an old father?

It was a bit surreal. She paused for a few seconds, then asked, "Where did you go?"

"Looking for milk." Fu Xun shook the swaddled baby in his arms. "He's hungry."

Leng Huan: "..."
