Lin Zaozao, arm in arm with Han Ye, turned around and greeted Ye Yi's father, Luo Xuan. She then couldn't help but survey her surroundings.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
This building was situated atop a mountain. Due to its high elevation, it was extremely cold here.
The cold wasn't what surprised Lin Zaozao. What shocked her was that this place wasn't governed by the laws of this small world.
This area was protected by an array formation.
Otherwise, when she had left this small world earlier, Han Ye and the others, as men who were pregnant, would have certainly been affected by the laws of this realm.
Thinking about this, Lin Zaozao looked at Han Ye and the others' protruding bellies, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.
Since this world rejected the idea of men being pregnant and giving birth, there would undoubtedly be great risks when Han Ye and the others went into labor.
Now, seeing their swollen bellies, Lin Zaozao knew she had to quicken her pace.
She had to find a foolproof method to ensure they could safely deliver their babies before Han Ye and the others went into labor.
And this foolproof method lay with her brother, Xi Luo.
Now, it was time for her to find her brother, Luo Luo.
"Zaozao!"
"Father Luo Xuan," Lin Zaozao responded respectfully, looking at Luo Xuan.
"It's getting dark. I've prepared dinner inside. Let's go in and eat!"
"Alright, we'll go in now."
Lin Zaozao held Han Ye and Gu Shan's hands. After taking two steps, she suddenly seemed to remember something and stopped, turning to address the members of the Baichi Clan.
"My husband Murong Hai will be arriving soon. Please arrange for some people to wait here. When they arrive, bring him to me."
"As you command, Your Highness Ming Zhu," a middle-aged man in a gray robe said respectfully.
"Very well, let's go inside then!"
Lin Zaozao exchanged a glance with Luo Xuan before stepping inside.
As Lin Zaozao truly entered this magnificent building, her suspicions were gradually confirmed.
This place was the backup plan Xi Luo had left for her.
After dinner, Lin Zaozao, guided by Xiao Liuli and Ye Yi, found Luo Xuan.
"Father Luo Xuan!"
"Your Highness Ming Zhu!"
She knew about Xi Luo's cursed body-splitting technique.
A person's soul and body are nurtured by heaven and earth. If he had to split his body into so many parts, the pain of forcibly separating soul and flesh would make anyone tremble with fear.
But to repeatedly divide the separated body and soul... that kind of pain...
Thinking about the agony Xi Luo must have endured when separating his body and soul, Lin Zaozao bit her lower lip, her heart aching terribly.
"Father Luo Xuan, tomorrow, please take me to the eye of the array that your Baichi Clan has been guarding."
Seeing Lin Zaozao's slightly reddened eyes, Luo Xuan nodded silently.
As long as Lin Zaozao could rescue that man encased in ice, their Baichi Clan would have repaid their debt of gratitude.
A thousand years of guardianship could come to an end.
This way, their Baichi Clan would truly be free...
"Ye Yi, Xiao Liuli, have Murong Hai and Dashan come up the mountain? What about Zhao Cai and Jin Bao, those two little wolf cubs? Have they come up?"
"They've all come up the mountain. They're eating in the side hall right now."
"What about Zhao Cai and Jin Bao?"
Speaking of Zhao Cai and Jin Bao, Ye Yi and Xiao Liuli's expressions became a bit unnatural.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Lin Zaozao asked, looking at Ye Yi and Xiao Liuli with confusion.
"Well, Zaozao, Zhao Cai and Jin Bao did indeed come up the mountain. However, Jin Bao was carried up in turns by Murong Hai, Dashan, and the Wizard."
"Why?"
"Jin Bao is pregnant, and Zhao Cai was probably worried about tiring her out. So Zhao Cai kept stopping Murong Hai and Dashan, making them carry Jin Bao up the mountain."
Xiao Liuli couldn't help but smile as she thought about the pitiful sight of the three grown men—Murong Hai, Dashan, and the Wizard—arriving at the top, so exhausted they could barely stand straight.
As for Zhao Cai and Jin Bao?
They were hopping and jumping around in front of Murong Hai, Dashan, and the Wizard. Seeing their smug expressions, the three men were absolutely furious.
Hearing Xiao Liuli's words, Lin Zaozao was momentarily stunned.
Jin Bao was carried up the mountain by Murong Hai, Dashan, and the Wizard?
Jin Bao's body was so large, it must weigh at least four or five hundred jin (about 200-250 kg). With such a heavy load, and considering how steep the path up Nine Sky Mountain was, how on earth did Murong Hai and the others manage to carry Jin Bao up?
Their strength must be absolutely incredible.
She had thought that Murong Hai's ability to lift her 280-jin (140 kg) self with one hand was already the limit of his capabilities.
