Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

A lot of things happened during Ruan Chuyin's pregnancy.

Upon learning his wife was pregnant, Wei Shizhang immediately changed his mind and moved Qingfeng Pavilion to the border of Nanxing and Dayong. There was a Jinguang Mountain Range there. Aside from being farther from the Zhenbei Palace, the location was no less attractive than the Meteor Mountain Range. Furthermore, it was only a five-day drive from Liangcheng, a full half the distance compared to taking the official road.

Not only that, he also planned to focus on developing the shipping industry in Dayong. This idea was strongly supported by the new Emperor of Dayong, Jiang Wenzhou.

As the shipping giant of Beiyue Licheng, Qingfeng Pavilion was able to shift its industrial focus to Liangcheng, playing a crucial role in the local economic development. This would significantly increase tax revenue for Dayong and boost Dayong's shipping industry.

Jiang Wenzhou had just ascended the throne and urgently needed to achieve political achievements that would earn him recognition. This was undoubtedly a golden opportunity for him, and so Qingfeng Pavilion was relocated a full three months ahead of schedule.

In comparison, the relocation of the ghost realm was not so smooth.

Because Ruan Chuyin was pregnant, Meng Huali traveled back and forth between Liangcheng, Yangcheng, and Chaoge. During the relocation process, he still did not forget to avenge the Tenth Elder and dragged the Nine Elders into a battle against the Corpse Sect.

He didn't kill them, but he crippled three elders of the Corpse Sect, forcing Ge Yinghan to leave the East Palace and go back to help.

The two sects fought for half a year until Ruan Chuyin rushed to Xicang with a big belly to mediate, and Meng Huali agreed to a truce with Xu Qingxiao.

Ruan Chuyin showed her sincerity by not only gifting the Baiyun Mountains in the south of Dayong to the Corpse Sect, but also spending a huge amount of money to build a sect for them. From pavilions and towers to the pebbles laid out on the ground, she paid for everything.

As long as the Corpse Sect wants to come, they don’t need to bring anything and can check in as soon as they arrive.

This move moved Xu Qingxiao and the ten elders so much that they secretly wiped away tears. After discussion, they unanimously decided to move to Xinshantou for development.

In Xicang, they are still the largest sect.

With Dayong free from the threat of the Ghost Realm, the Corpse Sect turned its attention to the Xuantian Sect, the world's largest sect, and the Wangxi Sect, home to Qi Ruyi, the world's foremost expert. He persevered in his pursuit of the sword, at one point forcing Yan Shanting to leave his wife, leaving him furious and nearly exchanging blows with the Corpse Sect.

Afterwards, for the sake of the Empress of Dayong, Xu Qingxiao temporarily removed the Xuantian Sect from the list of imaginary enemies and focused all his attention on the Wangxi Sect.

Of the twelve peak masters of the Wangxi Sect, aside from the hot-tempered Cuizhu Peak Master Zuo Jinghe and the naturally belligerent Duzha Peak Master Shang Henian, the other ten were quite indifferent, none of them eager to accept a challenge. Furthermore, with the Corpse Sect's strongest, Ge Yinghan, not among them, the sword-asking mission fell entirely upon these two peak masters and Sect Master Fan.

Fan Yu was so annoyed that he immediately invited Xu Qingxiao to join the United Sect. He also changed the United Sect Summit, which was held every three years, to be held every three months, so that other sects could also contribute a little.

In the years that followed, because Xu Qingxiao kept asking about sword skills, he forced out all the powerful people who had long since retired from the united sects, and also made the young talents in the major sects, who were in a period of transition, emerge and grow vigorously as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Ten months later, a new heir was born in Dayong - Crown Prince Jiang Gongqiu.

Ruan Chuyin named his son himself, hoping that his son would become a wise ruler with great political achievements and be praised by the people.

Jiang Wenzhou was overjoyed and once again defied his ancestral teachings by bringing the child with him every day to feed him personally. Before he knew it, he had lost two pounds.

Ruan Chuyin recovered well during this period. In the next two years, she married seven more times. Her wedding to Ji Zhiya was the simplest. Since he had no parents and no sect, the two knelt before heaven and earth and swore their vows, witnessed by the Golden Anaconda and the Sky-reaching Python.

Over the next fifteen years, she bore children for each of her husbands.

Among them, a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, were born to Prince Linhuai. When the imperial physician confirmed the pregnancy, Jiang Xuanzhou was so overjoyed that he was almost lost in thought, feeling dazed and lost for days. It wasn't until Ruan Chuyin's belly became larger than any other pregnancy that he truly realized she was pregnant with two children.

Before the birth, Ge Yinghan specially concocted a double-strength abortion pill for his disciple. With Ji Zhiya accompanying her throughout the birth, Ruan Chuyin gave birth quickly and happily. Both children were healthy, each with a rosy complexion and narrow, long eyelids. Even with their wrinkled eyes, it was easy to see that they would have good looks in the future.

Ruan Chuyin had a total of eleven children in her life: eight sons and three daughters.

She gave birth to a daughter for Qin Guanzhi and Wei Shizhang respectively.

The Duke and his wife had three sons, so Qin Guanzhi felt no pressure and stayed with his daughter every day. He had chosen a master for her three days after she was born, arranged a series of learning courses in advance, and sent her to the Wangxi Sect to learn martial arts when she was four years old.

Wei Shizhang adored his daughter. On the day the child was born, he embraced his wife and burst into tears. Wei Yanli stared blankly at her granddaughter for a long time, unable to recover. After shutting herself in her room for three days, the moment she opened the door, she finally understood and decided to hand over Qingfeng Pavilion to her, training her to become the world's greatest female shipping tycoon.

Xiang Yunchi was the most fortunate of the nine husbands. His first child was a son, fulfilling his grandfather Wu Daozi's wish and successfully returning to his ancestral family name, "Wu." Just two years later, Ruan Chuyin gave birth to another son, to the delight of the Zhenbei Palace and all the in-laws. The pressure on their shoulders instantly vanished, and they were filled with hope for the next crown prince of the Zhenbei Palace.

Yan Shanting, Wei Jiusi, Ji Zhiya and Meng Huali each had a son.

Wei Jiusi had endured immense hardship since childhood. He had gnawed on rotting corpses and drunk blood to survive, and he couldn't bear to see his son suffer in Yueying Pavilion. So, Ruan Chuyin transferred all of her restaurants to him, training him in business.

Yan Shanting's goal was very clear. He wanted to train his son to be the next leader of Xuantian Sect, hoping that in a few years he would be able to stand out from the competition within the sect.

Meng Huali was the last to have a child, fearing his son would have the same enchanting eyes as himself. His fears proved true, and his son inherited the same violet eyes. This incident left him feeling guilty and withdrawn for a long time. Therefore, of all her children, Ruan Chuyin treasured this child the most, showering him with the most maternal love.

The nine elders of the Ghost Realm were very happy. Having these eyes meant that the sect could continue to communicate effectively with the Tongtian Python.

Surprisingly, the golden anaconda was actually a female, and it had laid two eggs with the Territory Guardian Beast. With their consent, one of the eggs was given to the Ghost Territory. Thus, the purple-eyed baby grew up with the little divine beast and was naturally trained as the next lord of the Ghost Territory.

Ji Zhiya had no expectations for his son. When he was eight, he handed him two secret manuals, telling him that if he could master the technique, he would be given the Fufeng Sword. If not, he would still have a treasure and a life of ease and comfort. Thus, the child grew up free of pressure and in happiness. Due to his exceptional talent and inherited Ji Zhiya's good fortune, he achieved great success in his studies by the age of eighteen. But to everyone's surprise, he entered the civil service.

Of his eleven siblings, he was the most gifted and committed to studying. This innate talent was reflected in his life: he consistently passed the provincial, metropolitan, and palace examinations with flying colors. Though he could have relied on his parents, he chose to remain anonymous and take the civil service exams, ultimately becoming the youngest prime minister in the history of the Great Yong Dynasty, as well as the wealthiest and most skilled swordsman.

Many years later, whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Ruan Chuyin would often look up at the big silver plate in the sky and recall the past.

Everything I have experienced in this life is so magical, it’s like a dream, a beautiful dream that I never want to wake up from.
