Many descendants

……

"Why is her soul so weak?" Zhu Yin, the patriarch of the Qilin Academy, saw Su Yan's problem at a glance.

Zhu Sanlang said, "Could it be related to the fetus? She's currently pregnant with twins."

"Yours?" Zhu Yin looked at him with surprise and excitement.

“…Uh, no, it’s not mine.” Zhu Sanlang hurriedly waved his hand.

“That’s right. Having a child as good as Xiao Twelve is already a great blessing. We shouldn’t ask for more.” Zhu Yin transferred his pure and powerful spiritual energy to Su Yan.

A moment later, Su Yan's pale complexion became rosy and full, as if she could wake up at any moment.

Zhu Yin's forehead was covered in a fine sweat. He raised his sleeve to wipe it away and said to Zhu Sanlang, "There shouldn't be any problems for now. When she wakes up, ask her whose child she's carrying. It's best to solve this problem at its root, otherwise, since she's only in the early stages of pregnancy, she might suffer later."

"Okay, I understand." Su Yan opened her eyes and slowly sat up. "Thank you for your help, Ancestor. I will definitely repay you handsomely in the future."

"No need, no need. You are Xiao Twelve's biological mother, and you have passed on the pure bloodline of our Qilin clan. We owe you a great debt of gratitude. If you ever need our help in the future, just say the word, and our Qilin Academy will do everything in its power to assist you."

"Thank you, Ancestor." Su Yan looked at Zhu Sanlang with gentle eyes and full of trust. "I want to go back to Yunmeng Island."

"Mm." Zhu Sanlang nodded.

Zhu Yin took out a bottle of pills from the alternate dimension. "This is a Soul Nourishing Pill. You can take one if you feel your soul power is weak."

"Thank you, Ancestor." Su Yan accepted it.

After leaving Qilin Academy, Su Yan stayed on Yunmeng Island for more than two months.

The spiritual power that Zhu Yindu gave her was almost entirely absorbed by Wen Jin's child. She also began to need Soul Nourishing Pills to maintain her daily lucidity.

"Sanlang, I'm going to the God Realm. Is there anything you'd like me to bring back for Xiao Shier?" Su Yan asked Zhu Sanlang in the garden as they planted some rare and precious seedlings.

Zhu Sanlang handed a small storage bag to Su Yan, saying, "Please give this to him for me."

"Okay." Su Yan accepted it.

"By the way, when you summoned Little Twelve last time, Yuanzu even came to him."

"Ah!? Maybe Little Twelve didn't tell Yuanzu about being summoned to participate in the monthly exam. It was my oversight. I will handle this matter personally."

"Just let Little Twelve explain it to Yuanzu."

"It's alright, I know what to do." Su Yan said, smearing a little bit of the flower-planting mud on Zhu Sanlang's cheek.

Zhu Sanlang was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Yan Yan is naughty."

Su Yan tiptoed and kissed the other half of his cheek. "Cultivate well, I will come to accompany you again."

"Mm." Zhu Sanlang nodded, his handsome face full of reluctance.

“Sanlang…” Su Yan gently pulled the corners of his lips up into a smile, “Wait for me with a smile until we meet again, okay?”

"Yan Yan!" Zhu Sanlang pulled her into a tight embrace. "You don't need to worry about me. Before I met you, I was also cultivating every day. The path of cultivation is inherently lonely. Knowing that Yan Yan is thinking of me, and that my son is waiting for me in the God Realm, fills me with joy. Cultivation has become full of anticipation, and I no longer need to ask for anything more."

“But Little Twelve still wants a younger sister from the same father.” Su Yan looked up at him. “Don’t you want one?”

“If pregnancy is so difficult and life-threatening, I would rather you not give birth.” Zhu Sanlang sighed softly. “Your well-being is more important than anything else. There are already many younger sisters of Little Twelve. Although they are not my biological children, I treat them as my own.”

"Sanlang, you're so kind." Just like Xiao Shier, he doesn't compete or fight.

Aside from angering him by sending Xiao Jiu and Xiao Shi away, she never argued with him again.

Zhu Sanlang shook his head. "No, Yan Yan, I'm the same as them. I also want to have you all to myself, but I know it's impossible. It's your job to upgrade your cultivation through the childbirth system and give birth to a child with even greater talent."

"...Little Twelve is just like you." Su Yan's heart ached slightly; being too obedient makes one easily overlooked. "Wait for me to come back, okay?"

"I've always been here."

……

The realm of gods, Tianhu Mountain.

Su Yan looked at Su Ji's residence, which was now tightly closed.

Some time ago, Yu Hao asked Qing Linghuan to deliver a message to her, saying that he was going back to the Divine Lord's Mansion to go into seclusion.

There is a precious cultivation ground there, where he will do his best to nurture Yangyang and Xiaoxiao. Little Bei'er is also beginning to cleanse her bones and marrow little by little, so that even if she doesn't have talent in the future, she can still cultivate other techniques.

Su Yan had no objection to Yu Hao's arrangements.

He will definitely treat the child well; that alone is enough to put her mind at ease.

Qing Linghuan was not in the fox den. And judging from his appearance, he hadn't returned to his fox den for some time.

I don't know where they went to get food.

Su Yan then temporarily stayed in the fox den, waiting for Qing Linghuan.

Xiao Mei analyzed the Soul Nourishing Pill and discovered that it was entirely condensed from divine soul power and could not be synthesized using material things or data.

Su Yan wants more Soul Nourishing Pills, so she might need to find someone.

[Host, Wen Jin should be able to refine Soul Nourishing Pills.]

Ever since we returned from the Dark World Continent, he's been acting strangely, always keeping his distance from me.

"Is he jealous?" Xiaomei asked. "His emotional fluctuations are similar to Qing Linghuan's when she's jealous. Only he expresses it outwardly, while she keeps it to herself."

【Impossible.】 Su Yan didn't think Wen Jin was jealous. He was only interested in her ability to bear children, nothing more. A little flirting and intimacy could help with conception, but it didn't necessarily mean anything emotional; it was just a matter of lust.

"Can we pause the development of this fetus? Let's focus on raising one child first," Su Yan asked.

"Sure," Xiaomei replied.

Su Yan touched her slightly protruding belly. [I should go back and see Wen Jin first. If he can refine a large number of Soul-Nourishing Pills, then I'll continue the pregnancy. But if it's discovered that this fetus is affecting Little Celestial Fox, then I'll immediately halt its development.]

"Okay, host." Xiao Mei replied, "There will absolutely be no problem."

Su Yan sighed wistfully, "Why are all Wen Jin's children so troublesome?"

[Host, every challenging pregnancy is an opportunity for the childbirth system to upgrade and evolve.]

"I know." Su Yan got up from the fox den. "Then let's go back to the Beast World first. Little Fourteen and Little Fifteen are in the Beast Emperor's Palace. Huanhuan might go straight back to the Beast Emperor's Palace and not come to Heavenly Fox Mountain."

Su Yan returned the portal to Qing Linghuan so he could use it when he needed to fetch food.

So now, Xiaomei is the one who sends her around.

But, just as she was about to leave...

Suddenly, his body was uncontrollably enveloped by a teleportation beam.

"Xiao Mei, what happened?" Su Yan asked anxiously.

Xiao Mei did not respond.

Su Yan's consciousness immediately entered the system space.

But all they saw was complete darkness within the system space!

It's like a city that was once brightly lit with colorful neon lights suddenly losing power, leaving only silence and darkness.

"Who are you?" A powerful voice, filled with the sound of thunder, rang out.
