436 Preparing to Return

I'll come find you right away.

Lu Li up, rushed out of the tent, stomped off the ground and soared into the sky, shooting towards Tianchi.

The roar of the high-speed flight echoed through the sky, and the women rushed over to ask what had happened.

Xiao Cha was completely confused. "I don't know either, he left in a hurry."

Xia Weiyin slowly said, "They went towards Tianchi, so something must have happened to the Dragon Girl. Could it be...?"

She's really pregnant!

Everyone was startled and immediately guessed the truth.

Su Qing was utterly shocked. "Lu Li got the dragon pregnant?!"

Golden light surged around Lu Li, and with his Indestructible Will, he easily broke through the wind resistance, unleashing a flight speed of Mach 3, and arrived at Tianchi in less than 10 minutes.

He slowed down and landed lightly in the water, expertly slipping into the mouth of the skeletal dragon, and in the blink of an eye, he was teleported to the Heavenly Pool Spirit Realm.

"Lu Li, you're here~"

Xiao Yu quickly stepped forward and nuzzled Lu Li's forehead and cheek.

Her complexion was slightly pale, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, but she was in good spirits, pointing to her lower abdomen and smiling broadly:

"The little baby is sprouting! I can feel it!"

"I... I felt it too."

Lu Li raised his hand and touched the Dragon Girl's lower abdomen. The moment he touched her skin, he immediately felt a connection with her.

The Xiao Yu's innocent and pretty face was full of joy as she murmured:

"What great luck! It worked on the first try! Mommy won't be forgotten. I love you so much, little baby. Grow up quickly!"

The Dragon Girl was visibly happy, but when Lu Li placed his hand on her lower abdomen, he sensed that the intensity of her life magnetic field had plummeted by 40%!

His pale complexion was clearly not unfounded, Lu Li asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"Yes, the baby took away a lot of energy."

The Xiao Yu didn't seem to mind, and said happily, "Eating so much, you must be very strong!"

The young woman was immersed in the joy of becoming a mother for the first time, forgetting that this was only the early stages of pregnancy, and her energy needs would only increase over time.

Fortunately, Lu Li thought of this and quickly asked, "Shall I get you some spiritual energy?"

"Okay, okay."

The Xiao Yu nodded vigorously. "A clever trick can help the baby grow up faster, otherwise it would have to stay in my belly for decades."

"Okay, you eat these first, I'll find more right away."

Lu Li summoned the Kunlun Mirror and released 200 spiritual energies for the Xiao Yu to eat.

I also wanted to give the remaining 8 Merit Golden Lotus, so Xiao Yu quickly said:

"The baby has not yet developed a sense of self and cannot access the power of will."

Upon hearing this, Lu Li gave up.

After consuming the spiritual energy, a sliver of color returned to the Xiao Yu's face, and it said contentedly:

"I feel much better, thank you, Lu Li ~"

You're welcome, as long as you're comfortable.

Lu Li gently stroked Xiao Yu's silver hair, and Xiao Yu rubbed her head against Lu Li's hand, yawning as she said:

"You've become invincible?"

"Yes, thanks to your dragon blood, otherwise it would have taken at least a year or two."

Lu Li gently stroked the Xiao Yu's back. The Xiao Yu's eyes were glazed over, and its eyelids drooped. Soon it fell asleep peacefully.

As the baby Xiao Yu continuously draws energy from its mother, it instinctively becomes lethargic.

Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Lu Li solemnly said, "We need to hurry up and break through the tribulation."

The Dragon Girl's appearance clearly indicates a significant drop in combat power.

If news of her pregnancy leaks out, or if her pregnancy becomes noticeable later, it will cause a huge uproar!

Just look at the Hengshan Sect; without the Heavenly Monarch's suppression, they would only end up being devoured by others.

Fortunately, the Dragon Girl paved the way, and with the Kunlun Mirror, his Spirit Refinement level increased very quickly.

All I need to do is take that desperate leap and crush the obstacle!

After gently kissing Xiao Yu's forehead to let her rest, Lu Li up and left the Spirit Realm.

~~~~~~~~~~

As soon as he returned to the camp, a group of beauties surrounded him, staring at Lu Li with strange expressions.

Before they could ask, Lu Li readily admitted, "Xiao Yu is pregnant."

A collective gasp filled the arena!

Xiao Cha's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "So it really is possible to increase the probability by trying a few times!"

Even Wan Qing was somewhat eager to try and have a child with Lu Li.

The couple already had a deep emotional bond, and their strong physique brought with it an incredibly strong desire, including the instinct to reproduce.

The thought of having a child caused Xia Weijun to secrete large amounts of progesterone, and she felt a strong desire to have one.

The air was thick with the allure of hormones. Suppressing her burning desire, Xia Weijun said with some concern:

"Women are extremely vulnerable during pregnancy, is the Dragon Girl alright?"

Lu Li knew what she wanted to ask and answered directly, "I will break through the tribulation of lightning as soon as possible."

Anyone who said that would be called arrogant and delusional.

Only when it came from Lu Li's mouth did it sound perfectly normal; everyone thought it was exactly how it should be.

Xia Weiyin didn't have much to say, only instructing, "If there's anything we can do, just let us know."

"I won't be polite."

Lu Li smiled and nodded, then said, "I have to leave for a few days. You should go back first."

This was to return to Blue Star to replenish some spiritual energy. The women were already used to Lu Li's occasional disappearances and didn't react much.

Su Qing was the only newcomer, and her mind raced with wild guesses, but she remained quiet and well-behaved.

Lu Li looked at her and asked, "What are your plans next?"

Su Qing said, "That scoundrel Liu Shan ordered me to seduce you and give you the secret manual. I can't go back too soon; I have to act for a few more days."

Lu Li nodded and said, "Then you can come with me to the Dragon Gate Sect. It'll be like revisiting an old haunt."

"Sure, while you're at it, bring the Shen family's house over too."

Su Qing licked her lips and said, "It encompasses the entire Taihu Lake and also has a small Spiritual Vein. It's quite impressive."

Su Qing is the true "Young Mistress of the Shen Family," capable of not only acquiring a house but also transforming the Shen family into the Lu family.

That was her plan too—serves you right for being stingy with the dowry, Shen family! Now you've squandered it all!

Xia Weiyin and Xiao Cha looked disdainful, but they didn't say anything in front of Lu Li.

Next, we had to part ways.

Last time Lu Li to Blue Star and broke through to the Manifestation, Wan Qing gave him her own Blood Drinker Sword to use, but this time it was the other way around.

Lu Li summoned two flying swords, Broken Mountain and Nine Curves, and handed them to Wan Qing, saying:

"I really can't refine it all myself, please use Dark Matter to cleanse it for me."

This is a required course for flying swords to advance from the fourth rank to the Third Rank, and Wan Qing also Manifestation, which helped to share the burden.

The two flying swords behaved very obediently in front of the mistress, Wan Qing smiled and said, "You can leave them to me."

Lu Li nodded and said, "Then let's do it this way. I'll be back as soon as possible. If anything happens, we can communicate telepathically."

"Take care of yourself!"

"Be safe!"

Lu Li hugged each of his wives, including Yue Ru.

Only Xing Ru a little awkward, and simply gave a Wanfu Ceremony.

Lu Li didn't care; he knew he'd enjoy it eventually.

He's currently preoccupied with figuring out what he should do back on Blue Star.

"Besides replenishing one's inspiration, one can also take the opportunity to 'Thunder Listening'."

In many parts of the Star Alliance Country and the Southern Continent, thunderstorms occur year-round, and there is even a unique spectacle called the "Eternal Storm."

Meanwhile, on the southern continent that Lu Li was thinking about...

The Star Alliance Country forces have surrounded the jungle where Jessica is hiding.
