At the time, Leng Hong Xiu and Yun Ri Yang were having their daily dinner and discussing the situation outside with Leng Hong Xiu.
This night's snowstorm was especially fierce. However, the other courtyards around the courtyard area, including the streets outside, were abnormally bustling because this was the last day of the Lunar New Year's year, which was also the New Year's Eve.
However, because Leng Hong Xiu was a future human, coupled with the fact that even the entrance to this world of ice and snow could not open, there was naturally no festive atmosphere of the new year. Yun Ri Yang was the prince of the Rising Sun Country, and the Rising Sun Nation's New Year's Eve was on the last day of December.
Since he was in another village, it was too late for him to think of his family. Naturally, he could not be happy either, so the shopkeeper, in order to thank them for wrapping around his inn for such a long time, sent out a table full of delicious dishes for them to cook for New Year's Eve dinner.
He only felt the wind and snow blowing against the windows of the inn, and it gave him a desolate feeling.
The so called story of the situation outside was told to Leng Hong Xiu, but right now it was the same time in the entire country for the new year, what could there be to talk about?
In fact, Leng Hong Xiu also knew that it was very rare for a man to put down his status and take care of a woman like her, the target of Yun Ri Yang, the favoured son of heaven. If a man had to spend one or two days with a woman, it meant that he was trying to cheat her. If a man treated a woman well every day, it meant that he was sincere.
Regardless of whether she believed in love or not, after so many days, Yun Ri's sincerity towards her was still obvious. She was not unmoved by it, no matter how many years she had been cold and distant, towards this kind of care that did not ask for anything in return, there was still a faint ripple in her heart.
Actually, if she really wanted to abandon the pain that she had experienced in the past and end up in a family with a man like Yun Ri Yang, it seemed like a pretty good choice.
However, in her heart, she was unwilling to make such a decision no matter what. She could not say a single word that was warm to him, and always felt that something was wrong.
She didn't know if it was because her stomach kept getting bigger, but even though she hated seeing her own stomach, she still had to watch it most of the time. She even had to think about that stupid snake along with her stomach.
Counting the time, it had already been seven months. Her chances of knowing whether or not Sen Luo would still be alive were lower and lower. She also didn't know why she was staying in Falling Moon City.
Actually, if she really wanted to find out the whereabouts of someone, she could do it, but she hadn't made a single movement these days. Leng Hong Xiu didn't know if she wanted that stupid snake to live or if she wanted him dead.
The more she thought about it, the more confused she felt. She didn't know that at this moment, Sen Luo had already been tormented to the point where he was almost completely exhausted. Even her memories of her were gradually fading and disappearing.
She only knew that suddenly, her stomach began to hurt violently. The pain, which she hadn't experienced for a long time, was a pain that Leng Hong Xiu hadn't experienced for months, but now it was starting to move violently. She didn't think that it was a sign that she was going to give birth.
Damn it!
"Yun Jiu, this damned child is about to come out. Are you going to give birth?"
Leng Hong Xiu tried her best to take a deep breath to relieve the pain. Although it was useless, it could still hypnotize and comfort her psychologically.
Even though she admitted that she was not afraid of anything, she had never experienced this before. She was afraid that all women would possess this ability, and that was to give birth to a child.
Yun Ri Yang also stood up in panic. He didn't expect that his child would arrive so soon, and the weather was also like this. Where would he go to find a midwife?
However, he himself would never give birth to a child! What should he do?
After hesitating for a few seconds, Yun Ri Yang finally stomped his feet on the ground and quickly picked up Leng Hong Xiu and put her on the bed. He held her hand and said with a tremble, "Listen, Red Sleeve, I will go and find the midwife now, I have already investigated the locations of a few midwives and found a place to stay. There is one that is not far from here, and I will be back in about an hour. Endure it for now, remember to not use too much strength.
Leng Hong Xiu was in excruciating pain, but she did not want to waste any more time speaking. She only opened her eyes and looked at Yun Ri Yang who was sweating profusely.
Seeing her nod, Yun Ri Yang gave her a stiff smile. Without even putting on his robe, he opened the door and quickly ran out.
There weren't many people on the street. Although it was a festive day, the wind and snow were too heavy. However, it didn't affect the commoners. One by one, they looked through the windows to enjoy the snowflakes flying outside.
At the end of the street, there were two people wearing bamboo hats and heavy cloaks. They were rushing on their way and one of them was chasing after the other person's footsteps while calling out softly, "Gongzi, think twice. If you want to go back to the capital at this time, you will undoubtedly fall into the trap of being a traitor. You can't go! "
"Enough, don't try to dissuade me. I have already made all the preparations, the army is in his hands, all I have is those Demon Destroying Families with special spiritual energy, although doing so will cause panic among the people in the country for a long period of time, but as long as I can regain the throne, everything will calm down!" Do you want me to hide like a turtle in hiding and wait for the so-called opportunity? "Hmph, you must know that the longer Dugu Qing Kuang sits in his throne, the more consolidated his power and position will be. At that time, how can I possibly regain my throne?"
The one at the front seemed to be very excited. Although his voice was low, every word was tough. The one at the back knew that his words and actions were too radical, but he couldn't think of anything else to say to dispel his plans. He could only keep chasing after him.
At this moment, Yun Yang, his hair in disarray, was rushing forward against the wind from the other side of the street.
Because of his panic and the opposing wind, as well as the bamboo hat worn by the person in front of him, Yun Ri did not realize that these two people were the master and servant Feng You Ran that Leng Hong Xiu had been wanting him to find.
Feng You Ran walked in front. Because he was filled with anger and unwillingness, he did not notice who the person he passed by was; however, he felt that the man who had ran past him looked familiar, but because he had expected that Yun Ri Yang and Leng Hong Xiu had not received any news for so many days, he fell into the mysterious Cloud Blue Mountain. He thought that they would definitely die, so how could he have imagined that Yun Ri Yang would walk alone through the streets on such a day?
So even though he felt it was familiar, he didn't immediately tell Feng You Ran about it. It was already five days later when he mentioned it to Feng You Ran.
Although he had been hesitating on whether or not he should find a midwife to give birth to Leng Hong Xiu, he, who was usually meticulous and cautious, had already enquired about the addresses of several midwives in Falling Moon City. He paid particular attention to the midwives who lived alone or those who lived in a small home, because once Leng Hong Xiu gave birth to a monster, he would have to silence the midwife.
First, it was very close to the inn where they were staying. Second, she was very old, and her husband had already passed away in her early years. Her son had given her away since he was young, so she was the most suitable person to stay alone for many years.
Thus, when Yun Sun Yang barged into the midwife's house and said that his wife was about to give birth, the old woman, although a bit flustered, quickly took her things and followed him.
Yun Yang felt that she was walking too slowly, so he carried her on his back and quickly used his lightness techniques to travel. Thankfully, he managed to travel with the wind and spent less time than he had when he came. Indeed, less than an hour had passed.
In the room, Leng Hong Xiu's hair and clothes were drenched in sweat. Her hands were tightly clutching the bed sheets, and she didn't even utter a sound of pain.
The midwife quickly stepped forward and pulled off the quilt. She pulled down her pants and looked at Leng Hong Xiu's groin and immediately turned to command Yun Ri Yang, "Young master, go get someone to bring some hot water. Your wife is indeed in urgent need of a baby."
Not long after, he came back with a large bucket of hot water. The midwife took a look and saw that it was a huge tub, and secretly praised this young master for his slim figure and his great strength. She naturally did not know that he had used inner force.
"Young master, it's enough. You should hurry and leave. Leave the rest to me!" As he said that, he pressed his hand on Leng Hong Xiu's stomach and smiled, "Madam's birthplace is very good, and the child is not small either. You don't have to worry about it."
Yun Ri Yang did not leave. He wanted to confirm whether or not Leng Hong Xiu was giving birth to a human child, and if there was a monster, he would kill the midwife before she could scream. If he went out and made her scream, what would happen?
Therefore, with a slightly pale face, he stood at the head of the bed. "Old man, my wife is naturally timid. If I'm not here, I'm afraid of her. Just let me stay. I want to stay with her!"
As she said that, she held onto the hand that was holding onto the bedsheet tightly, and Leng Hong Xiu more or less understood the reason why Yun Yang left behind, and indeed, she herself was also extremely afraid of what kind of monster would be born, so it was necessary for her to have him stay, thus, she did not make a sound, much less retort.
The midwife, on the other hand, was more or less hesitant. "Young Master, the house where the woman has children is filled with blood and bad luck for men. Are you sure you don't want to go out?"
"Elder, you should quickly start. I'm not afraid of the unlucky. Just let me stay behind. My wife is about to die from pain. Hurry up!" Yun Yang saw that Leng Hong Xiu's body was convulsing in pain, his eyes were red, and he immediately shouted.
"Good, good. Young master, do not worry, the delivery path has not been fully opened. Pain is a must, it will be soon!" The old granny had delivered babies for many years, so naturally she had a lot of experience.
The so-called midwife was the embodiment of the obstetrician and gynecologist. Although Leng Hong Xiu was about to lose patience from the pain, she knew that at this time, she could only rely on this midwife to deliver her child.
When Leng Hong Xiu was in so much pain that she wanted to sit up herself, cut open her stomach and take out the evil seed, the midwife was already happy and shouted, "It opened! It opened! The birth canal was open! "Madam, please listen to my password and start to use more strength!"
As he said that, he opened up both of Leng Hong Xiu's legs and placed a hand on her stomach, gently pushing down from top to bottom, shouting: "One, two, three, use your strength!"
When Leng Hong Xiu heard her shout three times, she started to use strength, she felt her lower body swelling and pain, as though her body was about to split open. And in her stomach, that damn little evil being was actually still constantly waving his fists and kicking, it was so tormenting that she could not even speak. However, in order to quickly relieve the pain and suffering, Leng Hong Xiu still clenched her teeth and continued to breathe deeply, listening to the midwife's orders to use her strength.
The midwife dipped her hands in hot water and washed them clean, doing her best to expand the entrance of her cold red sleeves so as to make the birth canal larger. She then continued to shout, "Madam, just use a little more strength, we've already seen the child's head, quick —"
At this moment, Yun Ri Yang also became nervous. He tightly placed one hand on the back of Leng Hong Xiu's hand while the other hand was filled with inner strength. He was prepared to kill her if she gave birth to a child that did not have a human form.
Wasn't Leng Hong Xiu the same?
The snow outside seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. This New Year's Eve was destined to be an unusual night. Could it be that the State of Moon's Descent, representing a new year, would also be as restless as the night's snowstorm?
When the child's clear and resonant cry rang out in the room, Leng Hong Xiu and Yun Yang simultaneously let out a sigh of relief. The two of them simultaneously looked at the child in the midwife's arms that was stained with the placental fluid.
Her snow-white skin, her slender limbs relative to a baby's, as well as the continuous crying sounds, all of these did not fail to prove that she was a normal human child.
The midwife did not notice the unusual nervousness Yun Ri Yang and Leng Hong Xiu had before, and only smiled happily, "Congratulations young master and madam, you are an extremely handsome young master. Once I have washed my son, I will carry you to the master and madam for a closer look."
At this moment, Leng Hong Xiu felt a little tired and closed her eyes, feeling extremely lucky in her heart. Luckily, it was a humanoid child, if it really gave birth to a snake, she would immediately shoot it.
After the midwife had carefully cleaned out the baby's body, Yun Ri Yang hurriedly handed over a piece of soft silk to the midwife. After she finished wrapping it up, he then handed her a red and gold colored package that he had prepared a long time ago.
After she was completely surrounded and hugged, she made sure that she would not catch a cold before sending it into Yun Ri Yang's embrace. Only then did she begin to take care of the aftermath of the production for Leng Hong Xiu.
By the time everything was ready, it was already dawn and the blizzard had already stopped.
Yun Ri Yang gifted a cat's eye gem that he brought out from the stalactite cave, gave it to the midwife, and only after a thousand thanks was he able to send her away.
Once again, only two people remained in the room: Leng Hong Xiu and Yun Ri Yang, as well as a newborn child.
Yun Yang looked at the three parts that looked like cold red sleeves and the seven parts looked like children from Shinro. He couldn't help but feel mixed emotions as he asked Leng Hong Xiu, who still had her eyes closed, "Hong Xiu, what are you going to do next?"
He knew that she had not slept. After experiencing such a big thing, he believed that with his understanding of Leng Hong Xiu, she would not be able to sleep.
Sure enough, when Leng Hong Xiu heard his voice, she said lightly: "Go find Sen Luo!"
"Then what about this child?" Yun Yang was not surprised by her answer. After all, she was not the kind of person who would easily retreat. It was really inconvenient for her to bring a baby with her.
"It doesn't matter if you send him away or throw him into the wilderness, I don't want him." Leng Hong Xiu did not even look at him and instructed him coldly.
"Leng Hong Xiu, you —"
