"This servant greets Your Highness."

Just then, a voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

Immediately after, Xia Tianpeng strode in.

He quickened his pace, jogged up to Xi Wanru, and smiled, "Wanru, why are you up?"

"How have you been taking care of Madam? Didn't I tell you not to move around freely? If anything happens to Madam, you'll see how I deal with you."

Xi Wanru waved her hand and said, "Xia Tianpeng, no need. I'm going to die anyway, so what difference does it make whether I die sooner or later? I just want to come out and see this world before I die, is that not allowed?"

Xia Tianpeng's body stiffened instantly.

He said, "Wanru, what nonsense are you thinking? You are the mother of my child, my first child. I want to watch our child grow up with you, and grow up to get married and have children."

Xi Wanru pushed Xia Tianpeng away, her face instantly turning cold.

She snorted coldly, "Xia Tianpeng, stop talking. I know what you mean. Do you think it's fun to keep lying to me? I, Xi Wanru, am the dignified Five Elements Saintess. I was indeed deceived by your sweet words before, and even had a child with you. But now I've figured it all out."

"You clearly want my Five Elements Immortal Scripture; my pregnancy is just an exception."

"I really am stupid."

"I didn't think of that before, but I only realized it now. It's too late."

"I know I cannot escape death. The moment my child is born will be my death day. I only ask one thing of you: after I die, treat our child well. I can tell you all the Five Elements Immortal Scriptures I know."

Having said all that, Xia Tianpeng obviously had no need to pretend anymore.

He took a step back and looked at Xi Wanru, saying, "You know everything."

"In that case, I can grant your request. As long as you obediently tell me all the Five Elements Immortal Scriptures you need to know, I can treat your son well."

Xi Wanru suddenly fell silent.

She turned around and said, "You can go now, I'm tired."

"After I give birth to the child, I will tell you the last sentence of the Five Elements Immortal Scripture that I know. I also hope that you will treat Yi'er well. Yi is the name I have chosen for the child. Let's call him Xia Yi."

Xia Tianpeng nodded and looked at Xiao Cui.

He said in a serious tone, "Did you tell Madam?"

Xiao Cui respectfully said, "Young Master, it wasn't this servant who said it, but Madam herself who discovered it."

Xia Tianpeng nodded. "I'll believe you for now, but you'd better not lie to me."

Xiao Cui shook her head and said, "This servant wouldn't dare."

"Hmph." Xia Tianpeng snorted coldly and said, "You'd better not dare."

Return to the room.

Xiao Cui did not follow.

Xi Wanru clearly had not given up on escaping this place.

Unfortunately, this was the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, the Great Yu Immortal City, which was protected by countless great formations. At this moment, she couldn't even send out a distress signal.

"But when she thought of the child in her womb, the child who was about to be born, she couldn't make up her mind."

"That means killing the child in my womb, restoring all my cultivation, and escaping this place."

Just as Xi Wanru had this thought.

Inside the palace.

Just as Chu Feng had chosen his treasure and was about to leave, the system beeped.

[Beep beep beep, the chosen one is in trouble and may die. Please help as soon as possible.]

"No." Chu Feng was a little confused.

"System, what do you mean? You can kill the Chosen One at will?"

[Yes, for example, Xia Yi, who was still in the womb. His destiny and fate had not yet fully coalesced and were in a dispersed state, which was also his weakest moment. Killing him would not attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao, making it the best time to kill him.]

Chu Feng's eyes lit up, and he immediately laughed, "You mean, if I go and kill the Chosen One now, wouldn't I be able to get the Chosen One's reward without having to suppress him five times?"

[Host, aren't you overthinking this? The Chosen One's destiny hasn't fully materialized yet. Killing him won't bring any rewards, unless it happens after he's born.]

"Okay, I understand. You want me to keep this chosen one from dying."

[Host's answer is correct. See how good this system is to you, how thoughtful it is for you? Keep it up, complete more tasks, kill the Chosen One, and collect the Daughter of Destiny. This system has high hopes for you.]

"roll."

Chu Feng naturally knew who this chosen one was and where he was.

Zhenbei Palace.

Come to think of it, he had killed the Prince of Zhenbei.

I wonder if the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion has made any moves.

There's a saying that goes, "If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze."

He had already planned to visit the Prince of Zhenbei's residence, and now he was even more determined to go.

next moment.

Take one step forward.

Chu Feng appeared inside the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.

In the room where Xi Wanru was, she was going through the most intense struggle in her heart. Gently stroking her belly, she said to herself, "Yi'er, it's not that your mother is heartless, but if I give birth to you, your mother will die, and I will also have to reveal the most core inheritance of my Five Elements Holy Land. Your mother will become a sinner of the Five Elements Holy Land. So I'm sorry, your mother has no choice but to sacrifice you."

Just as Xi Wanru was preparing to kill Xia Yi, the unborn chosen one.

Chu Feng appeared.

"I'm saying, you're really planning to kill your own son."

"who."

Xi Wanru was shocked.

Although she was pregnant and her cultivation level was temporarily reduced to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and her actual combat strength would be even lower, it did not prevent someone from appearing in front of her without her noticing.

"I."

Chu Feng appeared directly in front of Xi Wanru.

What did Xi Wanru think of the moment she saw Chu Feng?

She knelt down before Chu Feng with a thud and respectfully said, "Junior Xi Wanru greets Senior."

Chu Feng was quite surprised and said, "You know me."

“This junior does not know you,” Xi Wanru shook her head and said, “but this junior knows that you are definitely not a member of the Zhenbei Prince’s Mansion, and may even have a grudge against the Zhenbei Prince’s Mansion.”

"Oh."

Chu Feng smiled and asked, "How did you know?"

Xi Wanru said, "It's a feeling."

"I had this feeling from the first moment I saw my senior."

"good."

Chu Feng said, "A woman's sixth sense."

"interesting."

Xi Wanru continued, "This junior would like to ask the senior to save me. I don't want to die here, and I don't want to reveal the secrets of the Five Elements Sacred Land."

"I, Xi Wanru, will repay your great kindness and virtue with my whole life."

Chu Feng shook his head and said, "No need for repayment. I have one principle when it comes to saving people: you have to be useful to me. Otherwise, why should I save you? Do you think what I said makes sense?"

Xi Wanru gritted her teeth and said, "This junior is willing to exchange a secret for this junior. Please save this junior, senior."
