Chapter 198 - Using Eggs To Give Birth
Chapter 198 Using Eggs To Give Birth
Upon hearing Su Su’s words, Su Wen’s heart ached for her.
Well, she was not wrong. Ni Hongxiao’s laboratory… was indeed full of corpses…
She only knew how to experiment every day.
How would she have the time to care about Su Su?
“Alright! Come home with me today!”
Su Wen had also thought things through. Since she had his bloodline, he would not ignore her no matter what.
Ni Hongxiao frowned at his reply.
Obviously, she could not bear to leave Su Su either.
Su Wen said, “Why don’t I clean up a room at home? Any time you come over, you can stay there with Su Su to save yourself the trouble of staying in your laboratory full of corpses.”
Ni Hongxiao shook her head and said, “There’s no need. The Spiritual Master Residence has an area for us to live in, but I find it troublesome.”
Su Wen looked at Ni Hongxiao and said to Su Su, “Wait for us in the carriage first.”
Little Su Su nodded obediently and followed Su Wen’s finger to climb onto the carriage.
Zhao Jin tactfully drove the carriage further away.
Su Wen asked in a low voice, “Why did you leave behind your bloodline?”
Ni Hongxiao gently stroked her hair and lightly said, “It’s impossible for me to marry in this lifetime, but there are times when I wonder, what is the purpose of living?”
She looked at the sky and stretched out her palm. She said softly, “A country, a human life, good or bad, and even my research might be meaningless. The end of life is just death. One day, I will also die, and my soul will fly to the starry sky. I hope that when that time comes, there will be someone who will shed tears for me and remember my existence. Branding me in their hearts will… at the very least, prove that I once lived.”
“Maybe I can be that person too…” Su Wen began.
Ni Hongxiao glanced at him and said, “With your behavior, the uncertainty is too great. The possibility of you dying before me is very high… So you’re not suitable… but I admire your bloodline, which is also the reason why Su Su was born.”
“Su Su’s life will be very long…”
Ni Hongxiao muttered.
Su Wen smiled and said, “But you can’t let her stay with you all day. How about this? We’ll respect her wishes. If she wants to go to my place, she can go to mine. If she wants to go back, I’ll send her back. How about that?” “Alright!”
Ni Hongxiao agreed as well. The two of them went to the carriage and opened the door. Ni Hongxiao looked inside at the quietly sitting Su Su, “I’m going back to do my experiments. Are you coming with me?”
Su Su looked at Su Wen and shook her head. She said in a childish voice, “I’ll go to Daddy’s place for a while. If I miss Mommy, I’ll go back!”
“Alright.” Ni Hongxiao nodded in agreement. She looked at Su Wen and said softly, “Don’t let her suffer.”
Their eyes met and Su Wen saw pleading in Ni Hongxiao’s eyes… This woman who never cared about anything. “Don’t worry! With me around, no one can bully her!” Su Wen hugged Ni Hongxiao.
This time, Ni Hongxiao did not say anything and gently leaned on Su Wen’s shoulder.
A moment later, she pushed Su Wen away and turned to leave. Su Wen got on the carriage and smiled. “Let’s go home!”
Zhao Jin spurred his horse and the carriage shot out. Su Su let out a burst of laughter at the sudden movement.
Her bright laughter was infectious, cheering Su Wen up.
After a short period of time, they came back to the Su Residence.
Su Wen led Su Su into the inner residence. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Ning Shuang. The moment Ning Shuang saw Little Su, she exclaimed, “Young Master! When did you have a child?”
Su Wen immediately boasted “Looks like I must have been very cute when I was young!”
Ning Shuang nodded seriously and said, “Yes… it was just that you have grown up the wrong way…”
When Su Su heard this, she looked at Su Wen and pursed her lips. Tears welled up in her eyes. “Su Su doesn’t want to be like Daddy… Su Su has to be like Mommy!”
“Um…”
Su Wen was embarrassed! I’m just doing some humble bragging, do you have to be so realistic?
At this moment, the women who heard the commotion also came out.
Yan Luoying and Cui Yumian. Su Wen looked around before asking Ning Shuang, “Yiyi is still cultivating?” Ning Shuang nodded and said with a smile, “That’s right. The cultivation technique Young Master gave her is very effective. Her cultivation speed is extremely fast, and she is about to recover her previous cultivation level.”
What Su Wen gave Xie Yiyi was the Nine Charm Heavenly Fragrance cultivation technique.
Xie Yiyi had originally dispersed all her cultivation to obtain a body of charm. She had tried to recultivate, but for some reason, her progress was slow.
In reality, after she achieved a body of charm, her physique was already different from before. If she cultivated her original technique, the effects would naturally be extremely bad. However, Xie Yiyi’s cultivation started to condense rapidly when she started cultivating the Nine Charm Heavenly Fragrance. At the same time, it did not affect her natural charm.
In just a few days, her cultivation base had improved by leaps and bounds. Cui Yumian walked over and exclaimed when she saw Xie Yiyi, “What a cute little sister…” “Don’t call her sister…” Su Wen covered his head and looked at Yan Luoying. He said helplessly,” She’s my daughter! Su Su!” Cui Yumian covered her mouth lightly, but did not ask what was going on. She only smiled. “Husband, why didn’t you bring her in earlier?”
“Um…” Su Wen didn’t know what to say.
Yan Luoying also squatted down and gently touched Su Su. She smiled and said, “She’s so cute. If only my child would be as cute as her.”
Su Wen lowered his head and stroked Su Su’s head with a smile. “Just call her Mother-Aunt.”
“Mother-Aunt!” Su Su called out sweetly. It made the two girls even more fond of her.
At this moment, Su Su suddenly caught sight of Xue Qianxun.
She frowned and pointed towards her. “Father, this is a bad person!”
Su Wen was caught unawares by her sudden outburst and asked curiously, “Why do you say that?”
“Malicious intent!” Su Su could only express this.
Qianxun got a shock when she heard Su Su’s words!
Su Wen narrowed his eyes and smiled. “It’s fine. Father will punish her later!”
At this moment, Qianxun was already showing some signs of getting a Stockholm Syndrome kink.
Su Wen also noticed it over the past few days.
Xue Qianxun’s loyalty was no longer restricted to having a forced increase of 1 per day.
Instead, it had started to exponentially increase. In fact, every time she was being punished by Su Wen, the points would increase even more… Currently, it had already reached 75.
Even so, Su Su could still sense the malicious intent within her.
Su Wen now realized that Su Su’s spiritual perception was extremely powerful and even surpassed his.
If he were to nurture her well, it would probably be extremely terrifying in the future.
That night, Su Su slept in Su Wen and Yan Luoying’s room.
Tonight was destined to be a peaceful night of rest.
Yan Luoying did not show any hostility to Su Su, nor did she ask about her biological mother.
Actually, she already had a guess in her heart.
After all, Su Wen had gone out with Ni Hongxiao today… And then came back with a child…
However, she did not ask further.
Su Su slept between Su Wen and Yan Luoying. She was very happy!
To Su Su, nights were always cold and lonely. With Ni Hongxiao’s excellent mental strength, it was common for her to do experiments and not sleep for a few days.
In the next few days, Su Su stayed in the Su Residence the entire time. In the meantime, the new version of the Liang Zhu also spread throughout the city without his knowledge.
Compared to the first version, this version was more acceptable.
However, it attracted a lot of praise and surprisingly also contributed quite a bit of Emotional Value to Su Wen.
All in all, it could be considered an unexpected gain.
Finally, the little girl wanted to go back.
No matter what, Ni Hongxiao was still the closest person to her.
At this moment, Su Su had already put on the princess dress, crystal shoes, and a beautiful hairpin that Su Wen had given her.
She resembled a little princess.
Su Wen brought Zhao Jin and prepared to personally send Su Su back.
In the dark, Dou Beiming saw Su Wen coming out and felt even more hatred in his heart!
However, just as Su Wen carried Su Su out of the door, Su Su suddenly said to Su Wen, “Father… I feel malicious intent.” As she spoke, she pointed in Dou Beiming’s direction.
Dou Beiming, who was observing them, was stunned.
Su Wen looked in the direction Su Su pointed and also noticed this fellow.
Su Wen was about to attack when he suddenly stopped. He saw a person beside Dou Beiming, Dou Zhan!
That’s right, it was Dou Beiming’s father!
Dou Zhan stood beside Dou Beiming and coldly said, “You brat, have you been discovered? If I’m not here, I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave alive today.”
Su Wen smiled and ignored the father and son. Instead, he got in the carriage and left.
With Dou Beiming alone, Su Wen would definitely teach him a lesson.
However, if Dou Zhan was included, it would be impossible. Now, the other party was just standing there. If he rashly made a move and fought with a 9th Grade Earth Rank expert, not to mention the outcome, the surrounding people would probably suffer great casualties. And once this matter blew up, he, who took the initiative to make a move, would have to take the blame.
Dou Beiming heaved a sigh of relief and glanced at Dou Zhan before lowering his head. “You’ve been following me?”
Dou Zhan nodded and said, “I know that you won’t be satisfied until you’ve run out of options.”
Dou Beiming clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth. “But I can’t accept this!” “If you’re not willing, then go back and practice martial arts!” Dou Zhan sighed. “I can’t reach the Heaven Rank, but you have a chance. Only by reaching the Heaven Rank will you have the right to speak in this world! If you want to become enemies with the Royal Court with just this bit of strength, you’re courting death!”
“I don’t want to!” Dou Beiming begged. “Father! I really like Xue Qianxun! I beg you, think of a way!”
He kept pleading
Looking at his son begging him, Dou Zhan sighed and said, “The royal court matters still have to be handled in the royal court! Let’s go! Follow me to see someone.”
Dou Beiming was overjoyed when he saw his father concede!
Dou Zhan led him to the Crown Prince’s residence and handed over his name card to announce his presence.
Bright God Sect, Law Enforcement Hall Deacon!
This title was still very useful to the Crown Prince.
The two of them were invited into the Crown Prince’s residence, where he welcomed them with a smile.
“I’ve long heard of Senior Dou’s great name. It’s my honor to meet you this time!”
Dou Zhan hurriedly bowed and the three of them sat down.
After exchanging pleasantries, the Dou father and son explained the whole story. In the end, Dou Zhan said, “Your Highness, if you can help my son save Xue Qianxun… We are willing to serve Your Highness in the future!”
The Crown Prince started to weigh his options.
This deal… didn’t seem to be a loss to him…
However, was it just a small matter? Was that true or false?
Furthermore, they wanted him to fish her out from Su Wen’s hands?
This matter was probably not easy to handle. Looking at how infatuated the brat was with Qianxun, she was probably a beauty…
And now that she had been in Su Wen’s hands for some time…
He couldn’t help but persuade Dou Beiming, “Brother Dou, it’s not that I want to say this, but you should have come earlier. That Su Wen is a pervert. Say, if that woman is very beautiful… I’m afraid she has already been violated by Su Wen!”
Dou Beiming was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
He had never thought that there was such a possibility Perhaps it was because he didn’t dare to think about it…
Snowflakes fluttered… the north wind howled… the world seemed boundless…
(TL Note: Search “A Spray of Plum Blossoms” by Fei Yu-Ching)
“That can’t be, right?” Dou Beiming consoled himself. “How would Su Wen dare to do that? Qianxun is just a thief. Shouldn’t she be handed over to the authorities?”
The Crown Prince consoled, “Brother Dou, you might not know too well… That Su Wen is known to be lecherous in the capital. Even if he were to hand her over to the authorities, he has probably done enough on his way back from your Bright God Sect. Are you sure you want to think of a way to get this woman out?”
“Yes! I must!” Dou Beiming gritted his teeth. “I won’t believe it until I see Qianxun!”
In the Crown Prince’s opinion, it was not difficult to fish up a person.
He smiled. “Don’t worry, as long as Xue Qianxun is in the capital’s prison, it won’t take much effort to get her out! You two stay in the residence first, I’ll send someone to ask!”
“Many thanks to Your Highness.”
How would he know… that the current Xue Qianxun… was no longer being defiled… but had instead been humiliated countless times?
Su Wen personally delivered Su Su to Ni Hongxiao he could feel at ease.
He squatted down and said to Su Su, “Have you remembered the martial arts that Daddy taught you these few days?”
Su Su nodded and said, “Got it! I’ve remembered both! The Heaven & Earth Great Solar Sutra as well as the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword, Su Su has remembered them all!”
(TL Note: Author initially wrote that Su Wen taught her the Great Solar Supreme Policy, but that mystic realm technique cannot be spread to others, hence he changed it later on to the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword in Ch202. Am changing it here as well so the story flows better.)
Su Wen smiled and said, “That’s good!”
With that said, Su Wen stood up and smiled at Ni Hongxiao. “It’s all thanks to you that I can be at ease. Those few at home are still not pregnant. I thought that there was something wrong with me!”
“That’s right, you do have a problem.” Ni Hongxiao hugged Su Su as she said, “The fire elemental energy and life elemental energy in your body is too vigorous, far surpassing that of ordinary humans. I had used special methods to deal with my eggs, as for ordinary people, they will not be able to have children with you…”
Su Wen slowly turned around. “???”
Seeing Su Wen’s dumbfounded expression, Ni Hongxiao blandly continued, “For ordinary people, it will be extremely beneficial for them to mate with you. It can increase their vitality, but it’s basically impossible for them to have a child with you.”
Su Wen did not know that the more powerful a life form was, the harder it was to produce offspring. Previously, he had continuously swallowed and processed the blood essence of vicious beasts from the system, causing his life force to already be above that of ordinary people. In the end, he suddenly obtained the Vermillion Bird bloodline, causing his life level to be elevated above mortals.
It had nothing to do with his strength… “Hehe… hehe…” Su Wen chuckled weakly.
However, he did not feel very sad.
After all, he already had a daughter. Since Ni Hongxiao had a way to give birth to one, she naturally had a way to give birth to a second one.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you if I want children in the future!”
Ni Hongxiao shook her head. “No, it’s hard to do. Unless the child’s mother is extremely powerful, the processed embryo will frantically absorb the mother’s vital Qi, causing the mother and embryo to die together…” If that was the case… then the few at home… except for Ning Shuang… didn’t seem to be too possible.
Su Wen asked, “Then… how strong must she be?”
Ni Hongxiao frowned. “According to Su Su’s experiment… I suspect that it needs a Heaven Rank expert. The life force of that huge egg far surpasses that of a 9th Grade Earth Rank cultivator. If it was an ordinary 9th Grade Earth Rank cultivator, they would be bled dry to death…”
Su Wen’s expression turned ugly.
“If we supplement it with some natural treasures, perhaps we can hold on. But even so, the mother will still be extremely weak after giving birth.” Ni Hongxiao said in a deep voice.
Su Wen’s heart sank.
“There’s another method, which is to similarly obtain a mutated beast egg that contains dense life essence energy! This way, it should be possible. Even if it fails, there’s no need to worry about the safety of the mother.” Ni Hongxiao proposed another idea. “Then it must be from a 9th Grade Earth Rank vicious beast?”
Ni Hongxiao shook her head and said, “It’s hard to say. It depends on how much vitality and essence energy the egg contains. Its strength might not necessarily be at the 9th Grade of Earth Rank. What’s important is its bloodline.”
Wtf?
Su Wen said in a self-deprecating manner, “So I went from a mammal to using eggs to give birth!”
What a f*cking piece of good news!
Thinking about how he had to find an egg every time he wanted a child…
Su Wen did not know whether he should laugh or cry.
After leaving Ni Hongxiao’s place, Su Wen returned to his residence.
He instructed Zhao Jin and Chu He, “Don’t follow me during this period of time. Keep an eye on me at home to ensure there’s nothing wrong. Don’t let anything happen!”
The appearance of the Dou father and son today reminded Su Wen of something.
With Su Wen’s current strength, it was no longer important whether Zhao Jin and Chu He followed him or not. However, he still had to ensure the safety of his family.
If he provoked a lunatic, the consequences would be huge.
As he spoke, Su Wen took out the manuals of Roaming Dragon Sword technique he had prepared.
He said to the two of them, “The two of you might not necessarily have to cultivate this Heaven Rank cultivation technique, but take a look. Perhaps you’ll be able to obtain some insights.”
Zhao Jin and Chu He were overjoyed.
No matter what, Heaven Rank techniques were extremely precious.
This was especially so for Chu He. Although he had challenged many people, there were not many who cultivated Heaven Rank sword techniques!
Su Wen then entered the inner residence and returned to his room. Xue Qianxun came forward and knelt on the ground, gently taking off Su Wen’s shoes. “Master… do you need to punish Slave Xue tonight?”
Xue Qianxun took the initiative to ask.
Su Wen immediately kicked Xue Qianxun and coldly said, “Do I need you to ask what I want to do?” [Ding-dong. The host has incited pleasant in Xue Qianxun. +35 Emotional Value]
Su Wen: “????”
What was going on? At this moment, Su Wen realized that Xue Qianxun’s loyalty had also increased by two points.
However, on the surface, Xue Qianxun looked terrified.
“Slave Xue was wrong! Slave Xue was wrong! Please punish me, Master.” Xue Qianxun knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.
Su Wen walked in and raised Qianxun’s face before slapping her.
“Ah!”
Xue Qianxun fell to the ground as she squeezed her legs tightly together.
(Ding-dong. The host has incited pleasure in Xue Qianxun. +100 Emotional Value]
“Hehe!” Su Wen understood everything now.
This girl’s masochistic tendencies had been completely activated.
Then he would punish her well!
After another round of miserable torture, Su Wen felt refreshed. Xue Qianxun’s loyalty also increased to the point of being deathly loyal.
She laid on the ground like a b*tch in heat, not daring to disobey. “Give yourself ten slaps!”
Su Wen casually said.
Without any hesitation, Xue Qianxun slapped her own face.
“Suicide!”
Su Wen continued.
A trace of struggle flashed across Xue Qianxun’s eyes, but it instantly disappeared as she rammed her head into the corner of the table!
Luckily, Su Wen was holding her back!
“Very good!”
Su Wen smiled.
Was this the power of being deathly loyal? Xue Qianxun looked at Su Wen with infatuation and admiration.
“Slave Xue is willing to offer everything to Master…”
“Hmph! Go and get properly dressed. From today onwards, cultivate well. If anything happens, you must fight with your life to protect the ladies in the inner residence!”
“Yes!”
Su Wen reached out and removed the seal on Qianxun’s body.
Her cultivation level returned.
During this period of time, the Blue Cloud Tiger was also being raised in the inner residence.
This tiger would dare to bare its teeth at anyone except Su Wen. The aura of the Vermillion Bird was too terrifying even in the eyes of this vicious beast.
On the other end, the Crown Prince had already sent people to the government office to inquire about news of Xue Qianxun.
But with this question, he discovered the problem.
Xue Qianxun was not sent to the government office at all!
He pondered for a moment and personally went to find Feng Baichuan.
The two met, and the Crown Prince smiled, “Lord Feng, I have something to ask!”
Feng Baichuan was not interested in the Crown Prince, thus he only replied in a neutral manner, “What’s the matter, Crown Prince?”
“It’s like this. I heard that Lord Feng and Su Wen went to the Bright God Sect together and brought back the person who stole Su Wen’s Blue Cloud Tiger to the capital. Is this true?” Feng Baichuan said, “That’s true! Why did the Crown Prince ask about this?”
The Crown Prince smiled and said, “Then I want to ask, where did the person who was brought back go?”
Hearing this, Feng Baichuan narrowed his eyes.
He had already reported this matter to Emperor Zhou, which included Xue Qianxun’s whereabouts.
Why would the Crown Prince ask this?
Seeing that Feng Baichuan was silent, the Crown Prince smiled and said, “Lord Feng, I don’t think this is any secret, right?”
Feng Baichuan said in a deep voice, “That person was taken away by Su Wen.”
He did not know why the Crown Prince was asking, but since the other party had come over to personally ask, he would just answer. There was no need for him to hide the fact that Su Wen took her away.
The Crown Prince was not surprised to hear this answer…
He stood up and said with a smile, “Farewell! Thank you, Lord Feng!”
With that said, he left the Martial Inspectorate. Feng Baichuan looked at the Crown Prince’s back and sighed. “Don’t provoke that jinx… Whoever gets involved will suffer!”
However, this matter had nothing to do with him, so he couldn’t be bothered to remind the Crown Prince.
After the Crown Prince left the Martial Inspectorate, Dou Zhan and Dou Beiming waited outside. Dou Beiming anxiously asked, “Your Highness, is there any news?”
The Crown Prince shook his head and sighed. “That woman was taken away by Su Wen. At this moment… I’m afraid…”
He looked at Dou Beiming pitifully.
After all, this feeling was not good for a man…
“I… I want to save Qianxun! I can’t let her be humiliated in Su Wen’s hands!” Dou Beiming felt his adrenaline rushing as he raised his sword. He turned to leave!
At this moment, the Crown Prince hurriedly stopped him and said with a bitter smile, “Brother Dou, if you go, won’t you be sending yourself to death? There are countless experts in the capital, and if you go, you’ll be considered as assaulting a court official!”
“Then what should I do?” Dou Beiming’s eyes were bloodshot.
The Crown Prince smiled, “At this point, there’s only one way, and that is to involve His Majesty. This Su Wen taking the criminal away without authorization is naturally not in accordance with the laws of the country. No matter what, it doesn’t make sense in the eyes of my Royal Father! However, it’s not convenient for me to make an appearance in this matter. You can use your status in the Bright God Sect to directly seek an audience with my Royal Father!”
He was naturally unwilling to stand up for these two fellows.
Although he wanted to rope in these two people as external help, if he directly stood out, he would definitely offend Su Wen and Su Changqing.
Therefore, he might as well sow discord between these two parties, letting them directly go to see Emperor Zhou!
