503. The Feelings of Pregnancy
Seeing Xiao Yan looking at her earnestly with genuine confusion in his eyes, Little Fairy Doctor was both embarrassed and anxious. She immediately grabbed a medical book from her desk to cover her face, not wanting Xiao Yan to see that her face was completely flushed, and muttered, "You, you're so stupid!"
"Why don't you drink this? Let me make you a new one..." Xiao Yan said, but suddenly thought of a possibility. Little Fairy Doctor herself was also knowledgeable in medicine. One mistake was one thing, but could she have made a mistake with so many medicinal herbs? Xiao Yan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and the teacup slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.
"Wait... Xian'er..." Xiao Yan's hand froze in mid-air, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.
Little Fairy Doctor had already thrown herself into Xiao Yan's arms, her ears bright red. She pulled Xiao Yan's right hand to her stomach and whispered in his ear, "Do you understand now?"
Xiao Yan finally understood what Little Fairy Doctor meant. He smiled subconsciously, a bright smile on his face, yet still puzzled: "I understand, I understand, but... when did this happen?"
Little Fairy Doctor raised her head and pretended to be angry, saying, "Of course you don't know. Our young master is so busy, he certainly doesn't remember when he entered my room."
Xiao Yan himself certainly remembered that he had indeed entered Little Fairy Doctor's room several times during his time in the Pill Tower, the last time being about three months ago.
Then Xiao Yan seemed to remember something: "Xian'er, your Calamity Poison Body, the child..."
"It's solved!" Little Fairy Doctor saw Xiao Yan's immediate reaction and knew that he was already concerned about her. She smiled softly and said, "It was that pill that Aunt Xuan gave me. Otherwise, I would have had a hard time getting pregnant in this life."
As Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he could no longer suppress the smile on his face: "Hahaha, how amazing, I'm actually... going to be a father like this?"
"Tomorrow, I'll go search for a complete set of pills to help him have a safe pregnancy... No, that's too slow... The Pill Tower definitely has them, I'll go ask Aunt Xuan tomorrow."
"Of course, I'll leave all these things to you!" Little Fairy Doctor could no longer suppress the smile on her lips.
"But we haven't had our wedding yet... How about this, we go back to Starfall Pavilion right now and call Father, my eldest brother, and my second eldest brother from the ancient clan?"
Little Fairy Doctor shook her head earnestly, pressing her graceful body against Xiao Yan's. Her eyes held no more mockery, but rather a serious expression as she instructed, "I don't care about these worldly formalities. Knowing your sincerity is enough for me. You can't leave before the Pill Gathering. The only reason I'm telling you now is because the Spirit Clan's behavior is too abnormal. I want you to be careful during the Pill Gathering; the child and I need you..."
Xiao Yan was also deeply moved. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
The two embraced, and at that moment, tears welled up in Little Fairy Doctor's eyes. Nearly twenty years had passed, and she had finally felt at home again by Xiao Yan's side. She had known before that Xiao Yan had feelings for her, but it was only romantic love; now, it was tinged with the warmth of family.
"I wonder how happy my father would be if he knew this news."
"You should think about how to explain this to Xun'er!"
"Well..."
……
In another part of Saint Pill City, Wei Jiangyuan, who had been in seclusion in a secret chamber for a long time, finally opened his eyes. A tiny needle appeared before him. The Soul Needle was only one finger long and was pale gray in color.
This is the only Heaven-rank Soul Skill in the Soul Skill Pavilion of the Pill Tower—Hidden Shadow Needle!
After more than a month of relentless cultivation, Wei Jiangyuan finally succeeded in condensing the Hidden Shadow Needle. Three Hidden Shadow Needles can be stored in the Sea of Souls in advance; with this first experience, the later ones won't be as troublesome.
Wei Jiangyuan was also very satisfied at this moment. This Hidden Shadow Needle was too inconspicuous and inconspicuous. Anyone who did not take precautions in advance would probably easily overlook it.
"Lingzhuo, Lingzhuo, consider this a gift I've been keeping hidden for so long to give you as a greeting."
Wei Jiangyuan stretched and yawned. He had made up his mind that he would never leave the secret room until he had successfully cultivated, and now he could finally leave.
Upon opening the door, Wei Jiangyuan saw Venerable Mingshui guarding him outside. He excitedly exclaimed, "Junior Brother, I'm out of seclusion! I was so bored!"
"Congratulations, Senior Brother, on achieving such success in such a short time." Venerable Mingshui immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Teacher is right, everyone would be envious of your talent."
Wei Jiangyuan took out a fruit and took a big bite, letting the juice soak his mouth. Because of chewing, he said somewhat unclearly, "What talent? This is pure hard work. If you work harder, you can do it too."
Having spent so much time with Wei Jiangyuan, Venerable Mingshui was already used to his temperament and simply rolled his eyes at him: "While you were in seclusion, my teacher went to the outside of the Pill Domain and heard about Xiao Yan's situation. Since you were in seclusion, he asked me to pass on a message to you."
"What, does the teacher also want to take Xiao Yan as a disciple? Hahahaha."
"No, not at all," Venerable Mingshui said. "But my teacher asked me to tell you that Lingzhuo is backed by the Spirit Clan, so it's normal for you to lose. Don't feel pressured."
"Hey, this old man," Wei Jiangyuan complained, "At his age, he still uses such low-level reverse psychology. How boring!"
"I feel that what the teacher said might actually make some sense. During your seclusion, the Dan family also joined the Spirit Clan. In the Pill Gathering, there were more than five eighth-grade alchemists helping him. I won't be participating, and your only ally is Xiao Yan. You must be under a lot of pressure."
"By the way, now that the Dan family is gone, all your information has been exposed."
Wei Jiangyuan was taken aback upon hearing this, then remained silent, finished the fruit in his hand in a few bites, clapped his hands, and got up from his seat.
"It's alright."
"Um?"
"I gave you your name at the time."
"Senior brother, this... is truly shameless..."
"Junior brother, you may not believe it, but even if the Dan family joins the Spirit Clan, I still feel that my real rival for the championship is Xiao Yan."
"I don't think so. Although Xiao Yan got first place on the Heavenly Talent Ranking, I think he still benefited from the strange fire and secret techniques. In the final ranking of this Pill Gathering, I think it's highly likely that you and Ling Zhuo will compete for first place, and Xiao Yan will take third place."
"I really want to gamble with you again, but unfortunately, I have the most confidence in myself." Wei Jiangyuan walked into his cultivation room without looking back.
Where are you going?
"Keep working hard, we can't really embarrass ourselves then. Call me again three days before the Dan Conference starts, junior brother."
"By the way, keep an eye on the Spirit Clan's movements. After subduing all five major families, I have a feeling they will have something else to do next."
"The grand spectacle of the Dan Conference is truly about to begin..."
