Chapter 238: He's Pregnant!

Tyler didn't turn back and run because there wasn't any point in doing that. Instead, he hastily called out to the system and purchased an instant power-boosting pill that he had used many times already in dire situations. It was just that he had used this thing the last time on himself when he had a human body. At that time, it hadn't taken a toll on his body. But this time, his body was much, much weaker. So, without thinking about how much it would affect his body, he just went on and used it on his body.

Just then, the power-boosting pill materialized in his body and made him energized. He suddenly felt a tremendous amount of energy flowing everywhere in his body as he gripped the sword tightly. He squinted his eyes at the monster before his eyes and smiled. Now let's see who will win this battle.

After that, he went ahead and started attacking the monster crazily. His first hit had such an impact on the monster's body that it was pushed back a few steps. The latter was stunned and didn't move for a few seconds, as if asking all the Gods why a human was stronger than a monster! Then, anger rose in its chest as it growled loudly.

The male lead heard that noise, and the level of anxiety in his chest increased rapidly. He concentrated on keeping up with his own pace.He really wanted to protect his baby, but the distance between them and Tyler was too far, so much so that it took them almost ten minutes to reach that place!

He gritted his teeth and quickened his steps. Even if he died here, it would be worth it!

Tyler could tell what was going on in his senior's head even from a distance. So he was determined to finish this monster off within ten minutes.

His hand carrying the sword again moved to attack the monster. His sword slashed the latter's spiky hands swiftly at such a faster pace that no one could see Tyler's figure. He flashed like a shadow from one place to another until all the spikes were out of the monster's body.

When he was done, he jumped back on the ground. By this time, others had already appeared in the vicinity. They could see green liquid on the sword and multiple spikes on the ground. The monster roared in anguish. The pain of getting separated from its body parts was too much! It glared at the ger before him with red eyes.

The monster was determined in its heart that it would surely get its revenge today!

The male lead could tell that this monster was really furious. So he ran fast and stood right before Tyler before even his Empress could react. He gritted his teeth and raised his sword. "Qiao'er, stand back. "I'll take care of it."

Tyler didn't want to leave this monster with his seniors, but now that he'd taken away its most dangerous weapon, he walked back and stood beneath a tree. But things didn't really go as planned.

It turned out the monster had another dangerous weapon, its saliva. Wherever it spat on the ground, that part would start burning as if someone had just poured a volcanic substance here.

So, Liang Deming had no choice but to retreat many times, but he didn't give up. He had to protect someone close to his heart, after all! How could he stand back and run away like a fool? So he gestured to several soldiers to circle this monster and used special battlefield techniques to suppress this thing. But the fact that the beast was spitting out such stuff didn't make it any easier for them.

Finally, Tyler couldn't stand anymore, and his body flashed toward the monster. At this moment, everyone was busy covering up their faces from the saliva that rained over their bodies. So they didn't even get a chance to attack. They could only continue dodging that monster's attack. But Tyler was different. No one was really watching him.

So when he flashed right and appeared before the monster, it was surprised and paused all its movements. That was the right time to make a move! Tyler used his sword to cut the monster's neck, blocking the path of breathing. After what felt like hours, the monster finally descended to the ground with a thud and died.

The male lead was still stunned to find out that the monster had been killed by his baby as the latter saved them in the end. But before he could say anything, he noticed Tyler's body suddenly fall to the ground. Stunned, he rushed toward his Empress and gathered this person in his arms. "He Qiao!"

But Tyler was in no condition to move. That pill indeed took a toll on him. When the power of the pill ended, all the energy from Tyler's body was sucked away, and he couldn't even blink his eyes after that!

"He Qiao, are you alright?" The male lead kept asking as he realized that something wasn't right. His male Empress wasn't replying! If it weren't for the fact that Tyler was still breathing, he would have probably gone insane.

Liang Deming took a deep breath and tightened his arms around his Empress, and got up with a dark expression on his face. The guards around him saw his face and lowered their heads. At such a time, it was better to stand back and act like they didn't exist until the Emperor himself called them.

***

When Tyler opened his eyes, he was already in his room, covered up with his blanket. He groaned and got up. Just as he was about to step out of his bed, a maid suddenly walked inside the room. "Your Majesty! Don't! The imperial doctor told us not to let you walk until he would come and diagnose you."

Tyler tilted his head and laid back on his bed. The condition of the doctor was strange, but he didn't think too much about it. He quietly closed his eyes and waited for his senior and doctor to come in. Soon, they both barged into the room.

"He Qiao!" The male lead had an anxious expression on his face when he came inside the room, whereas the doctor had a smile on his lips that he tried his best to suppress.

Tyler squinted his eyes at them. It was clear that this doctor was hiding something from the Emperor, and he could probably guess what it was!

Still, he suppressed his query and kept staring at them blankly. Liang Deming took hold of his hand and asked, in a worried tone, "How do you feel?"

"Good enough."

The Emperor felt a sigh of relief after hearing that and glanced at the imperial doctor. "You can check up on him then."

Then, after giving Tyler a lingering glance, he walked out of the door. A few maids stayed behind to assist the doctor. But the doctor didn't do as the Empress had expected. He didn't check out the ger's body at all and instead asked, in a serious tone, "Are you feeling nauseous?"

".... Yes." Now that he thought about it, he did feel like vomiting. A frown crossed his forehead before he realized what was happening.

Was he pregnant?!

He glanced at the smiling doctor with understanding. This explained why this doctor was acting like this and why he hid this thing from the Emperor. It turned out that he wanted to talk to him about it first!

And as expected, the imperial doctor opened his mouth. "Your Majesty, you're pregnant."

"I see."

The maids gasped in surprise as they started whispering to each other, but the lack of reaction on Tyler's face made it awkward. Even the imperial doctor scratched his neck and sighed before checking the ger's pulse. "It has been a week since you got pregnant. So I'll get you some meds. Just ask your maids to take care of it."

"Thank you. I'll tell his majesty when he comes."

Why did he feel like he had forgotten something important? Just then, a thought entered his head.

Where the heck was the herb that he had been carrying along with him in his sleeves?! After falling unconscious, he didn't know what the male lead did while getting them all back to the palace. He didn't even know how many days it had been since they fought that monster. He pursed his lips and suppressed his anxiety before asking a maid, "Send the Emperor in."

Everyone left the room as Liang Deming entered with a worried look on his face. He was as anxious as before, which clearly meant that he didn't know a single thing. So Tyler also didn't bite the bullet and came straight to the point. "I'm pregnant."

Before the male lead could register those words, Tyler stood up and asked, solemnly, "But there's an important question I need to ask you."Where's the herb that I had uprooted before we killed the monster?"

It took a while before the male lead could remember what this guy was talking about. Back then, they were so anxious and worried that they didn't even remember seeing a herb in Tyler's sleeves. They had hurried back to the palace in the shortest route possible before the maids changing the Empress's clothes found it. The Emperor then remembered the herb that Tyler had painstakingly taken out and asked the servants to plant it in the central garden.
