Chapter 464: Cruelty
Su Ya sat next to Lin Fan with her head lowered. Her cheek was slightly red, and she did not dare look at him.
"What is it, Yuan'er?" asked Lin Fan after finishing writing his understanding of Heaven and Earth into a scholarly scripture. He picked up this habit during the Slaughter Trial as a practice to hone his mind and not be affected by the endless killing.
"H-Husband, Yuan'er i-i-is ready to serve you." Her face became even redder than a baboon's butt.
"Oh, what did you cook today?" asked Lin Fan, still looking at the paper in his hand.
"Yuan'er means…to-to fulfill her wife duty."
Lin Fan finally understood her meaning, so he looked at her. He quickly noticed her red cheeks; lust flashed across his eyes for a moment before he quickly hid it.
He softly raised Su Ya's head from her chin and said with a smile: "Yuan'er, you don't have to hurry. I know your memories have not returned, so it is best to wait. There is no need to force yourself."
Immediately, sadness could be seen on Su Ya's face: "Does husband not want me? Is it because I am useless." Tears began to fall from her eyes.
"Of course not," replied Lin Fan, quickly holding her in his arm. "I just want to ensure you're healthy and ready."
Despite his words, Su Ya did not stop crying. Instead, she kept muttering that she was useless as a wife.
"Alright, we will pick a day, and you can serve me."?? ? ?? n ? ???
"Really?" she asked with a smile.
Lin Fan could not resist such a simple yet heavenly smile. Although the corner of her eyes still had tears, she appeared very at the mere thought.
p? ?da n?v el "Of course."
"Then, I will ask Sister Xu Shi for tips to better serve you." She then left the room as joy could easily be detected in each step. As Lin Fan watched all of this, all he thought to himself:
'Once she becomes my woman, this plan has a higher chance of success. And even if she remembers, later on, this will plant a flaw in her state of mind and reduce her threat as a competitor.'
Of course, he planned to kill her if she remembered immediately, but that was not necessary for now.
Three days later, Su Ya dressed in a beautiful dress personally chosen by Xu Shi, and she waited inside their main bedroom. After entering the room, Lin Fan momentarily lost his composure because of her beauty.
Finally, they practiced the Dao of Yin and Yang–literally and metaphorically. Lin Fan knew a few Duel Cultivation Techniques, and he used one of them to bland their Primordial Yang and Yin.
Using its power, he tempered his fleshly body along with Su Ya's.
The following day, she woke up with a smile on her face. However, after feeling slight pain, she looked down to see blood trickling. p??da n?vel
"Husband, is this our first time?" Although she did not have her memory, she did learn some basic knowledge from her Sister Xu Shi.
"Huh, yes, it is. When we married, you were cultivating a unique technique that prevented you from breaking your body until the Primordial Spirit Realm.
"Then, as you know, the terrible battle occurred, and we were busy, so we never had the opportunity."
Lin Fan was also slightly surprised. He thought Su Ya had a lot of experience regarding this matter. It may be because she portrayed herself as a charming little fox. So, although she did not have a partner, he thought she had plenty of experience with men.
'I wonder if the rumors about her were true?' thought Lin Fan before removing this idea from his mind. Now, these things did not matter.
Meanwhile, Wang Wei–who had a front seat to this animalistic mating ritual–frowned after witnessing everything. He thought something would happen during this session, but he was wrong.
So, he focused on the remaining events.
Three months passed. Su Ya rushed to Lin Fan's room and yelled:
"Husband, I am with child."
"What?" ,c,om
Lin Fan instantly appeared next to her before gently using his Divine Sense to check her body. And as expected, he felt a tiny and fragile life growing inside her.
Additionally, he could feel the bloodline connection to this small life.
"I am a father," muttered Ln Fan softly with a daze. Then, a few seconds later, he laughed out loud before roaring.
"I am a father!"
Although he never planned to have children so early, the idea of becoming a father suddenly elated him.
"Congratulation, Sister Zi Yuan. Congratulation, husband," said Xu Shi with a genuine smile on her face. With this child as an anchor, their plans have an even higher chance of success.
Lin Fan secretly notified the Academy of this news but did not tell his family yet. He decided to stay in this place until the child was born to ensure that no problem occurred with Su Ya. After that, the family of three celebrated this news.
He did not want her to visit some place that jolted her memory, making her discover his seal.
So, more than two years passed. By now, Su Ya had a slight belly, but it appeared that she was not close to giving birth. And this was normal.
Unlike mortals, a cultivator's pregnancy is usually between 3 to 9 years. As for the more powerful and wealthy, they can go on for a dozen, a hundred, and even a thousand years.
For example, Yu Yan carried Wang Wei for 184 years before he was born. And the main reason for such a short pregnancy was that she wanted him to be delivered at the right moment.
Female cultivators usually delay their pregnancy to avoid the issue of Karma. For example, they do not give birth to their children until the new generation begins.
This is why most of the Heaven Chosens are born around the same time.
Although three years passed in the projection, only a few minutes passed for Wang Wei. Nevertheless, he observed every single detail. And the only anomaly he noticed so far was Su Ya's gaze when she looked at Xu Shi.
That was the gaze of lust and desire.
Finally, something happened that Wang Wei did not anticipate.
One day, Su Ya told everybody she did not feel well and wanted to be alone. And once she had some privacy, she muttered to herself:
"Let's see if that thing in my memory is useful."
She plunged her hand into her heart to remove three drops of Source Blood. Then, she drew a bunch of scribbles on the ground; it appeared to be some weird ceremony.
After finishing, she plunged her hands straight into her abdomen to rip out something: her unborn and undeveloped fetus. Although it had been over two years, the fetus only had a head and upper torso.
The shape of the other body parts could barely be distinguished.
Su Ya looked at her with cold and indifference. However, sadness and regret could be seen deep in those eyes.
"I'm sorry, little one. But this is the only way for me and sister Xu Shi to be together."
She placed the fetus in the middle of the scribble on the floor.
"Hope this Bloodline Curse is effective."
The room suddenly turned red as the scribbles lighted up, and Su Ya began to chant a very long incantation in a strange language. The fetus disintegrated before turning into a glowing blood-red rune. And at that exact moment, Lin Fan and Xu Shi barged into the room.
He felt that the life force of his unborn child became extremely weak, so he rushed as he feared that something had happened to both of them. And the moment he stepped inside, the blood-red rune rushed to his body.
Lin Fan protected himself with countless methods, but they appeared useless. Noticing that this thing seemed connected to his bloodline, he tried to use Karma to cut it off, but it was useless.
And after entering his body, the curse rapidly began to kill him. His fleshly body, Primordial Chaos Physique, or Law Powers were all useless. So, he began to try all the methods he knew to save his life.
"How could you be so vicious," yelled Xu Shi as she thought that Su Ya had regained her memories.
"This is the only way for us to be together; he has to die.'
Xu Shi did not understand what she meant, but this was not the time. She rushed to Lin Fan's side to see if he could help.
Meanwhile, the latter's face became ashen. He clenched his fist and punched Su Ya, flying away. Lin Fan thought that maybe by killing the caster of this curse, he could get rid of her.
Unfortunately, his strength had reduced too much for his attack to be effective. At the same time, he rapidly approached death, and he did not know what to do--until he remembered something.
