Xun'er Is Pregnant, Grade 8 Pill!

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, four days had passed.

Having not seen Xiao Cang for seven years, Xun'er had missed him deeply.

Thus, for four consecutive days, neither of them stepped out of the room even once.

Even for meals, they simply took the Grain-abstaining Pills refined by Xiao Cang.

After four days of Xiao Cang's tender care, Xun'er's complexion was rosy, and her entire body carried a faint pink flush.

"Brother Xiao Cang, Uncle Ying should be back today. Starting tonight, we should sleep separately."

Early that morning, Xun'er nestled in Xiao Cang's arms and spoke reluctantly.

As Xiao Cang looked at Xun'er's skin, which appeared incomparably fair beneath the morning light, a lingering, unsatisfied look appeared in his eyes.

"It's all right. If two hearts are bound for the long run, why must they be together every day and night?" Xiao Cang gently stroked Xun'er's fragrant shoulder and said softly.

"If two hearts are bound for the long run, why must they be together every day and night... Brother Xiao Cang is so wonderful!"

Xun'er murmured the words, deeply moved by Xiao Cang's affection, and her love for him grew even stronger.

Yet just then, a notification sounded in Xiao Cang's mind.

[Ding! Gu Xun'er has been detected to be pregnant. Distributing rewards...]

???

The instant Xiao Cang heard this, surprise and an odd expression flashed through his eyes.

Pregnant?

So soon?

Xiao Cang found it hard to believe. Some days ago, in order to get Yao Ye pregnant, he had practically exhausted himself and even had Yao Ye take a Fertility Pill, yet there had been no movement from Yao Ye's stomach.

But this time, he had barely put in any effort, and Xun'er had gotten pregnant?

Xun'er's luck with pregnancy was simply too good, wasn't it?

[Ding! Gu Xun'er has been detected to possess a Divine Grade Dou Di Bloodline, triggering an Advanced reward!]

[Congratulations, Host, you have obtained:]

[Peak Grade 8 Pill: Emperor Blood Coagulating Heart Pill!]

[Low-grade Heaven Tier Dou Technique: Heaven Overturning Emperor Exterminating Spear!]

[Weapon reward: Divine Wrath Overlord Spear!]

[Cultivation reward: Three-star Dou King cultivation!]

[Ranked twentieth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking: Nether Poison Fire!]

[Dou Zun Experience Card x1!]

"Hiss!"

Looking at the six rewards, Xiao Cang could not help drawing in a sharp breath.

As expected of an Advanced reward!

Not only was the quantity high, but the quality was utterly terrifying as well!

What did a Peak Grade 8 Pill represent?

Across the entire Dou Qi Continent, any alchemist capable of refining Grade 8 Pills was a figure renowned throughout the continent.

Their numbers were unquestionably scarce.

Even in the Yao Clan and Danta, which excelled in alchemy, there were only a handful of Eighth-grade Alchemists.

It was no exaggeration to say that an Eighth-grade Alchemist would be treated as an extremely distinguished figure wherever they went.

Even in the Hun Clan and Gu Clan, an Eighth-grade Alchemist would absolutely be a top-level core figure.

This showed just how precious and terrifying Grade 8 Pills were!

He had never expected to obtain such a terrifying pill while only at the Dou King realm.

His eyes immediately burned with intense excitement.

He promptly checked the pill's effects.

[Emperor Blood Coagulating Heart Pill: After consumption, it can restore any lost Dou Di bloodline to its original state and permanently prevent the purity of the bloodline from being damaged.]

Xiao Cang was instantly stunned.

Restore a Dou Di bloodline?

Wait...

Could this pill be meant for Xun'er?!

Only then did Xiao Cang suddenly recall something.

The reason Xun'er was the Proud Daughter of Heaven of the Gu Clan was not merely because she was the treasured daughter of the clan chief, Gu Yuan.

More importantly, the Dou Di bloodline within Xun'er had reached the exceptionally rare Divine Grade!

In other words, Xun'er had the potential to reach at least the Eight Star Dou Saint level.

Perhaps she might even reach the level of a Nine Star Dou Saint in the future! At that time, with two Nine Star Dou Saints, the Gu Clan would surpass the Hun Clan in one stroke and become the number one clan on the continent!

However, Divine Grade Bloodlines had one drawback—though it could hardly be called a drawback.

That was, before breaking through to Dou Saint, one could not lose one's virginity.

Once that happened, the bloodline would be contaminated, causing its grade to plummet!

The moment Xiao Cang thought of this, cold sweat covered his forehead. He no longer even felt like looking at the rewards below.

Damn it!

I accidentally ruined Xun'er's Divine Grade Bloodline?!

Good thing Ling Ying had been sent away.

Otherwise, Gu Yuan would probably have already led the Gu Clan's experts here and razed the entire Northwest Corner of the continent to the ground!

And even though Ling Ying did not know about this, it could not be kept hidden for long.

After all, Xun'er was already pregnant. At most, it would be exposed in a few months.

Fortunately, the system was considerate enough to issue this pill in time. It could repair Xun'er's Divine Grade Dou Di Bloodline.

That way, even if Gu Yuan learned that his precious daughter was pregnant, he would not be too furious as long as her bloodline had not been damaged.

As long as Xiao Cang could display talent and strength that satisfied Gu Yuan by then, he should be able to make Gu Yuan accept him as his son-in-law.

"Brother Xiao Cang, what's wrong?"

Noticing the slight change in Xiao Cang's expression, Xun'er hurriedly asked with concern.

Seeing Xun'er's innocent expression, Xiao Cang realized that she might not yet understand the seriousness of the matter.

That made sense.

Before Gu Yuan had sent Xun'er here, she had still been too young. It was very likely that he had never told her about her bloodline.

This silly girl did not even know what she had sacrificed.

Xiao Cang could not help but feel heartache.

He gently rubbed Xun'er's head and revealed a tender smile. "It's nothing. In a while, Brother Xiao Cang will refine a pill for you. Remember to take it—it'll be good for your body."

As for the pregnancy, Xiao Cang decided to tell Xun'er only after she had taken the Emperor Blood Coagulating Heart Pill.

"Mhm, mhm."

Xun'er smiled sweetly.

"Brother Xiao Cang... time is precious. We have to cherish it properly."

"You little rascal, you've learned bad things so quickly? Just watch how I deal with you."

Xiao Cang immediately laughed, rolling over and pinning Xun'er's fair wrists to the bed with both hands as they cherished their final day before Ling Ying returned.

Toward evening, Xiao Cang personally escorted Xun'er back to her room before returning to claim his rewards.

"System, claim the rewards!"

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion rang out in Xiao Cang's mind as all the information regarding the Low-grade Heaven Tier Dou Technique, the Heaven Overturning Emperor Exterminating Spear, flooded into his mind. He comprehended it completely and directly mastered the technique.

Immediately afterward, the cultivation of a Three-star Dou King poured into Xiao Cang's body like an overwhelming infusion.

Xiao Cang's aura surged wildly like bamboo shoots after rain. In a short time, he broke through the thresholds of Six Star Dou King and Seven Star Dou King, stabilizing at Eight Star Dou King!

The next instant, Xiao Cang abruptly opened his eyes. A sharp glint flashed through them as boundless Dou Qi surged within his body.

But that was not all. Xiao Cang's vision blurred, and a silver-white spear embroidered with golden patterns appeared before him.

"Clang!"

The incomparably domineering spear slammed heavily into the ground, piercing several inches into it.

"This spear... is truly domineering!"

Xiao Cang's gaze sharpened.

Merely glancing at the spear, he felt an overbearing majesty rushing toward him.

Looking closely, he saw that the spear was straight and imposing, its tip razor-sharp. Golden patterns covered its shaft, forming profoundly mysterious and obscure inscriptions.

After staring at the spear for several seconds, he heard successive roars, like the low growls of gods. They filled all living beings with fear and shook Xiao Cang's mind until he felt dizzy.

"Damn! What a terrifying spear! It really sounds as if gods are roaring in fury."

Xiao Cang hurriedly withdrew his gaze, his eyes filled with shock.

He reached for the spear shaft. The instant he gripped it, he sensed the unmatched power contained within it. It could bring the Dou Qi he poured into it to its absolute limit!

"With this spear, my combat strength will rise drastically!"

Xiao Cang excitedly swung the spear, whipping up howling gusts of wind. Even without infusing the slightest bit of Dou Qi, the spear itself radiated an unmatched aura of power.

Below the Dou Ling realm, one would likely die and vanish with a single light sweep from this spear!
