Ruins Begin Appearing Frequently
[You observed the Entering Sainthood Failure Insights and comprehended the Fusion Art x1.]
Before his eyes, pale blue text floated in mid-air. This was Xu Bai's third Fusion Art. Not long ago, he had once again finished studying his Entering Sainthood Failure Insights and had fused quite a few skills.
The text in the current line is from the last book of Entering Sainthood Failure Insights, the one given to him by Eunuch Wei.
The pale blue text slowly disappeared, and then the new text appeared.
[Matching fusion options.]
Match successful!
The Fusion Art can forcibly categorize and merge unrelated skills.
[Integrating...]
After a while, the text displayed that the fusion was successful.
[Merger successful!]
The pale blue smoke completely disappeared, transforming into lines of information that entered Xu Bai's mind and vanished.
The latest attribute panel appeared before my eyes.
[Name: Xu Bai]
[Realm Level: Ninth Rank Loose Cultivator]
[Myriad Aspects Heavenly Attraction Mountain Sea Art (Transcendent Rank 9.1): Max Level.]
[Bewitching Shadow Great Art (Transcendent Tier 9): Max Level.]
[Strengthening Kidney Returning Origin Method (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[The Myriad Poisons Compendium (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Mechanism Puppet True Explanation (Transcendent Tier 9): Max Level.]
[Water Adaptation Method (Transcendent Tier 9): Max Level.]
[Feng Shui Arithmetic (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Thousand Mysteries Myriad Faces Formless Art (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Yin Yang Coexistence (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Mountain Sea Deity Summoning Method (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Corpse Control Method (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Myriad Attacks (Sainthood Level 1): Max Level]
[Myriad Defenses (Sainthood Level 1): Max Level]
[Myriad Strange Arts (Transcendent Rank 9): Max Level.]
[Comprehension: Max level.]
That's right, it's that simple. The complex skill attributes of the past have been removed, and the panel has become simple. But this does not mean that it has become weaker. On the contrary, it has become very strong.
Both of these new skills have reached the first level of Sainthood.
The Myriad Attacks are composed of the Blade Sword Three Absolutes, Returning Wind Flowing Snow, Soul Extermination Art. After fusing the three, a casual strike now combines all three, making it extremely terrifying.
The Myriad Defenses are composed of the Moving Heaven and Changing Earth, Undying Demon Soul Buddha Body. The defensive power of the two is fused together, which not only provides defense but also has the effect of transfer.
As for the others, no fusion occurred because only two Fusion Art were obtained through grinding.
Xu Bai originally thought that even if three extraordinary ninth-level books were fused together, it wouldn't be enough to achieve sainthood.
Because if he had to work hard, it would have taken him a very long time to reach the Saintly Realm, but now it seems that this fusion is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.
This integration seems to go beyond mere fusion; it also enhances the overall quality.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Xu Bai thought with delight.
Now, he has two Saint-level skills, although both are only at the first level of Sainthood, but he is basically invincible in the Extraordinary Realm.
However, he is now facing a very serious problem.
That's the same problem that's happened before; his True Yuan Power is insufficient again.
Even with his Extraordinary Rank 9 and his saintly skills, it still wouldn't be enough to fully utilize his Strengthening Kidney Gathering Art.
"It seems that in the end, we still need to find a cultivation technique. Unfortunately, I only have one cultivation technique right now. Even if the Fusion Art appears, with whom can it be fused?"
The mental cultivation method is the root, which can strengthen oneself, while skills are the external, which can allow one's strength to be displayed in an extraordinary way.
However, since he obtained the cheat system, all his cultivation techniques have been merged into one book, which means that even with Fusion Art, it is not guaranteed that the fusion will be successful.
This is a headache for him.
Should we opt for liver Fusion Art, or liver-heart treatment first?
That in itself is a choice.
If we talk about liver Fusion Art, he will have more skills to ascend to sainthood, but then a contradiction will arise.
His True Yuan Power will become increasingly insufficient, until finally, it reaches a point where he is completely unable to make ends meet.
However, if we switch to the Liver Heart Method, we cannot fuse it now because there is no Fusion Art. Moreover, even if we had the Fusion Art, the Heart Method cannot be fused.
The speed is also particularly slow; perhaps a dozen books can only be exchanged for 0.1, which invisibly slows down efficiency and combat effectiveness.
Xu Bai stroked his chin, thinking carefully, trying to come up with a compromise, but after thinking for a long time, no compromise came to mind.
Finally, he stopped thinking about it and made a decision.
He wants them all!
If you have any resources, then grind for them. If you have any Entering Sainthood Failure Insights, then grind for those Entering Sainthood Failure Insights first.
If you don't have it or can't find it, then focus on mastering the Heart Sutra and put other skills aside for now.
"However, before that, I should ask Eunuch Wei first," Xu Bai thought to himself.
The Entering Sainthood Failure Insights aren't something you can just acquire by wishing; you have to actively seek them out.
This thing won't fall from the sky, nor will it just fall into his hands for no reason.
His biggest problem right now is that he doesn't even know where to Entering Sainthood Failure Insights.
During his recent period of seclusion, he asked the Female Daoist Abbot and Liu Qingfeng, but they only gave him a general idea, saying that some forces had it, but they didn't know which forces specifically.
Not every faction keeps its Entering Sainthood Insights to itself, letting the world know about them. After all, this is a treasure, and letting others know about it could actually bring them danger.
Therefore, he needed to find someone who knew. As for who would know, Xu Bai thought that Chief Mu of the Great Chu Kingdom's palace should know.
After all, before becoming the new emperor, he was the Chief of the Bureau of Surveillance. Such a person should have intelligence. As for what to do after knowing, let's find out first.
Now that I understand, I'll think about the next steps.
Therefore, Xu Bai decided not to go into seclusion and instead planned to go to the Imperial Palace.
"Are you leaving?" the Female Daoist Abbot asked.
Although Xu Bai's aura remained unchanged after this seclusion, they had spent so much time together that they could sense something different about Xu Bai.
She wasn't clear on the specifics of this difference.
But her subconscious told her that Xu Bai seemed to have become stronger again. Now that Xu Bai had stood up, she remembered what he had told her not long ago: that if he came out of seclusion, he would go to the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom. Now it seemed that Xu Bai was leaving.
Xu Bai nodded. "You guys continue reading here. You can also help Chu Ling while you're at it. I'm going now, and I'll probably be back soon."
The Female Daoist Abbot agreed.
Although she's only here temporarily to read, she'll be happy to lend a hand if she encounters any trouble.
Needless to say, Liu Qingfeng, standing next to him, has essentially sold himself to Xu Bai.
Xu Bai said no more and left the Royal Palace Treasury.
After leaving, he first said goodbye to Chu Ling and Ye Zi, then chatted with Yun Zihai for a few words before heading towards the location of the Great Chu Kingdom's imperial palace. Without any hesitation or pause, he took off and flew through the air towards the Great Chu Kingdom's imperial palace at an extremely fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Bai had transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.
The Great Chu Kingdom, Imperial Palace.
Xu Bai, now without any scruples, didn't even stop at the city gate, but crossed the imperial city directly, like a shooting star, and fell into the Imperial Palace.
Some scouts from the Bureau of Surveillance saw this scene, as did the soldiers guarding the city, but instead of stopping them, they lowered their eyes and pretended not to see it.
They all knew who had flown over—it was the currently very powerful King Xu.
Who would dare to stop King Xu? Wouldn't that be courting death?
So they pretended not to see it and continued doing their own things.
After Xu Bai entered the Imperial Palace, he followed the Imperial Palace road directly to the former Imperial Study of the Chu Emperor.
Along the way, he encountered some city guards, eunuchs, and maids. Each of them bowed to Xu Bai. Xu Bai didn't say much and strode to the front of the Imperial Study.
With Chief Mu's strength, even though he has now become emperor, he must know that Xu Bai has arrived.
However, before Xu Bai could get close, he heard a commotion coming from inside.
The noise was very loud, and Xu Bai knew who was inside—it was Eunuch Wei Chief Mu arguing.
The sound came from the room, and Xu Bai could understand what it was saying.
"I really don't understand. Although you are now managing affairs of the court, you are focusing most of your energy on breakthroughs."
Is it really that important?
"The whole world is now rife with strange and bizarre things, and we still haven't figured out a solution. You should first govern this country well before you worry about your own affairs."
Eunuch Wei's voice was impatient and his tone was very unfriendly; only he would dare to lose his temper like that with Chief Mu.
Although the two were comrades-in-arms who had fought together through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, their temperaments clashed.
Chief Mu helpless voice came from inside.
"I don't want to do this either, but as you know, there's no way to come up with a solution in the short term, and my most important task right now is to Exiting Sainthood."
"If there really is no way to solve this, and the progress is slowed down, I may follow His Majesty's original path."
What kind of road is it that follows the original route of the Chu Emperor?
Xu Bai knew in his heart that he was going to enter the Ghost Market alone.
He probably wouldn't have said that, but he was likely pushed to the limit by Eunuch Wei, so Chief Mu blurted it out.
After saying this, Eunuch Wei fell silent.
About half an incense stick's time later, Eunuch Wei's sigh was heard.
"Well..."
That sigh was tinged with complexity.
Even though Xu Bai was outside the door, he knew why Xu Bai sighed.
Although they seem to be at odds, they are actually good brothers who have fought together and naturally developed a deep bond. At most, they just bicker a bit.
Hearing that if the progress were slowed down in the future, it would lead to the same fate as the Chu Emperor, Eunuch Wei was naturally not happy.
"Come in."
After the sigh ended, Eunuch Wei finally spoke in a weary voice.
Xu Bai knew that this was what he said, and now that the two had almost finished talking, it was time for him to go in.
Thinking of this, he pushed open the door and went in, just in time to see two people with disheveled clothes tidying themselves up.
Xu Bai: "?"
I expected the two to argue, but I didn't expect the scene to be so intense; they probably came to blows.
"Ahem." Xu Bai coughed lightly. "Gentlemen, is it convenient for me to speak now?"
Chief Mu rubbed his face. "What's inconvenient about it? You've been in seclusion ever since you went to the Barbarian Tribe. You must have something important to tell us now that you've suddenly come to see us."
Eunuch Wei remained silent, still holding his breath, but his gaze betrayed his expectation that Xu Bai would speak.
Just as Xu Bai was about to speak, he suddenly glanced at Eunuch Wei and then froze on the spot.
"You... you... you've attained sainthood?"
That's right. He glanced at Eunuch Wei just now and sensed that Eunuch Wei's aura seemed a bit off.
He now possesses the strength of Extraordinary Rank 9, which is extremely powerful, so he can immediately see the difference in Eunuch Wei.
Has Eunuch Wei become a saint?
Recalling the celestial phenomenon they had witnessed not long ago, in which someone in the Great Chu Kingdom attained sainthood, Xu Bai instantly came to a conclusion.
At first, he thought it was Prime Minister Wen Lu Sheng, but he never expected it to be Eunuch Wei.
This is outrageous! Isn't it said that the chances of a eunuch becoming a saint are almost nonexistent?
Eunuch Wei laughed and said, "Since the world was unified, some things have been changing, including our family's situation. We can't really explain why."
I don't know why, because he doesn't know the reason either.
Overall, this should be considered a rule change.
The reason why it is said that the chances of a eunuch becoming a saint are very small is because they are incomplete.
This is due to being bound by rules, and rules are often unreasonable.
But now, he has suddenly become a saint, and inexplicably so, which can only be attributed to the rules.
In any case, becoming a saint is a good thing.
When Xu Bai heard that Eunuch Wei said he didn't know either, he didn't bother to find out why. Instead, he teased, "Eunuch Wei, you told me that if someone took the position of Saint before me, you would kill him for me."
When the two are drinking, they can make any kind of joke, so there's nothing inappropriate about this banter.
Eunuch Wei gave a wry smile and waved his hand, saying, "Don't tease me. You don't know how Prime Minister Wen looked when I broke through to the next level."
Xu Bai could certainly have thought of that.
Prime Minister Wen went into seclusion specifically for this purpose, but to his utter surprise, Eunuch Wei beat him to it and reached the realm of sainthood.
Now, only two spots remain for sainthood, making the competition even more difficult.
Xu Bai asked mysteriously, "Between the Dean and Prime Minister Wen, who can go faster?"
With a hint of deeper meaning, Eunuch Wei said, "I have no idea, but both of them are putting in their best effort. After all, there is quite a gap between them."
The Academy and Prime Minister Wen can be described as a pair of sworn enemies.
On the day of the Academy, because they disliked Prime Minister Wen's ideas, they expelled him. But they never expected that Prime Minister Wen would eventually become Prime Minister, and his abilities would improve by leaps and bounds.
Both sides disliked each other, but both were fairly fair in their dealings with others.
Prime Minister Wen never made things difficult for the scholars from the Academy to become officials, and the Academy only had a few complaints about Prime Minister Wen at the beginning, but then said nothing more.
But it's true that they don't like each other.
This time, it's all about who becomes a saint first. Whoever becomes a saint first will be the one to slap the other in the face.
"I really envy your relationship. You managed to steer the conversation off-topic. If you want to have a deeper chat, why don't you find a place to drink? I have important business to attend to," said Chief Mu, speechless.
He knew that Xu Bai must have come for something, but now the two of you were chatting and the conversation had drifted to Prime Minister Wen.
Goodness.
Prime Minister Wen heard this, he would probably turn pale with anger.
Should we set up another table for you two, with some good food, so you can eat and chat here?
Xu Bai suddenly realized that he had gone off-topic, so he explained the purpose of his visit.
Before Chief Mu could speak, Eunuch Wei spoke first.
Eunuch Wei frowned and said, "Didn't we give you a book on Entering Sainthood Insights? Have you already read it almost to the end?"
Xu Bai nodded. "It should be about right, but the strength hasn't changed much."
He was telling the truth; his abilities really haven't changed much.
Now that Eunuch Wei is a Entering Sainthood Expert, he can naturally see Xu Bai's strength.
But he could also see that something was unusual; his vision was far superior to that of the Female Daoist Abbot and the others.
"Your strength hasn't changed much, but your methods must be even better now. You never do anything without getting something in return."
If we're talking about who truly understands Xu Bai, Eunuch Wei is one of them, as he directly pointed out the essence of the matter.
"It's a small improvement, but compared to Eunuch Wei's current strength, it's nothing to brag about," Xu Bai said.
"After Eunuch Wei attained sainthood, he's probably invincible."
When he reached the ninth level of the Extraordinary Rank 9 Realm, Eunuch Wei was invincible below the Saint Realm and could trade blows one for one above the Saint Realm.
Now that he has reached the Saintly Realm, he is probably invincible.
After all, the profession of eunuch, apart from the unacceptable fact that he was physically disabled, was indeed a bug in the system.
Eunuch Wei did not deny it and nodded. "More or less, but he can't fight against Exiting Sainthood."
"After all, we've only reached the first rank of Sainthood. If we reach the ninth rank, it might be possible, but it's still too early."
Xu Bai: "..."
Goodness.
He originally thought he was quite adept at showing off, but he never expected that Eunuch Wei was an even greater master in this area.
You're still thinking of Exiting Sainthood one for another, right?
Xu Bai rubbed his forehead and brought the topic back. "Anyway, this trip is for the Entering Sainthood Insights. Do you know where I can find it?"
Eunuch Wei looked at Chief Mu and said, "The one I gave you before was obtained by me by going to great lengths to ask an acquaintance. As for the others, I really don't know anything about them. After all, every faction keeps these things like treasures."
These insights gained from failing to attain sainthood were passed down from the ancestors and predecessors of the sect, and they were naturally unwilling to hand them over, since they were closely related to the attainment of sainthood.
Even if it's just the experience of failing to attain sainthood, it's still a crucial treasure because it represents a step over that threshold.
Upon hearing this, Chief Mu pondered for a moment, then took out a waist tag from the drawer next to him and handed it to Xu Bai: "Go and look for it yourself in the library on the ninth floor. There are too many and too varied materials, and I can't remember some of them."
Xu Bai said suspiciously, "At your level, how could you possibly forget things? You can memorize things with just a glance, right? Don't try to lie to me again and scheme against me."
This is unreasonable. A master of this level should have already achieved photographic memory.
Chief Mu said helplessly, "I can't guarantee anything else, but I will never go back on my word about what I promised His Majesty. From the moment I made that promise, I stopped trying to cheat him."
"The reason I said I couldn't remember is because the information there is updated every day, and I have to deal with important matters of state right now, so I simply can't spare the time to look at it."
Upon hearing this, Xu Bai understood. He put away the waist token and prepared to leave.
He was in a tight timeframe for his trip and was thinking of finding these documents first. If the information on the documents was easy to obtain, he would go and get it.
If it's not easy to get, then let's go back to the Royal Palace Treasury for now and grind through all those books first.
"Wait, the information you requested is very important. It's on the ninth floor. After you get it, you can come to me. I have something to discuss with you," said Chief Mu.
"I wanted to tell you this a long time ago, but I didn't because you've been in seclusion."
Xu Bai agreed, even though he didn't know what it was about, but he decided to look at the information first.
He didn't linger, left the room directly, and headed towards the Star Plucking Tower.
The journey was smooth and unobstructed, and we soon arrived at the Star Plucking Tower.
The guards outside these buildings did not stop Xu Bai when they saw him holding Chief Mu's token.
He went up the stairs and finally reached the ninth floor. This floor had many rooms, each labeled with its specific purpose. After searching for a while, he found the place specifically for storing data.
When Xu Bai pushed open the door and entered, he found it filled with thick stacks of books, and his lips twitched slightly.
"Wow, there are so many."
The room was huge and filled with books. Although the books were categorized, it was still dazzling to look at them.
"Let's start looking."
Xu Bai first searched around by category, ignoring those that didn't belong to his category. He quickly searched around but didn't find any categories marked as having failed to achieve sainthood.
"I almost forgot, it's impossible for it to be labeled so directly. It must have been categorized into a certain type. I forgot to ask Chief Mu when I left." Xu Bai slapped his forehead, only then remembering what he had forgotten.
"Let's go through them one by one," he thought to himself.
These were all documents, and there were no progress bars on them. Xu Bai began searching through them one by one. Fortunately, with his current strength, the speed was not slow. He finished reading a book at an astonishing speed.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he found the information he needed from all the books in the room.
Xu Bai opened the documents, memorized them all, and then put them back in their original place.
The records above are not extensive, mentioning five factions.
Moreover, he was not familiar with these five forces, but that shouldn't be a big problem.
While I was going through the information just now, I also stored some data about these five forces here, and I've memorized it all.
There were several places that were very far away, in remote areas of the Great Chu Kingdom, and he had no intention of going there.
After all, he was still being watched by two Entering Sainthood Expert from the Barbarian Tribe, and if he went too far away, he might be ambushed.
There was a force he was very familiar with, located in the Barbarian Territory, which had already been established Barbarian Territory.
Moreover, this group also included someone he knew very well.
—Miao Xiao.
That little girl from the Miao Sect is his biggest fan. This time, we can try to see if she can learn from the Miao Sect about her Entering Sainthood Failure Insights.
He remembered that Chu Ling had arranged for the Miao Sect to be located not too far from the Royal City, so he could go and take a look.
Having obtained what he wanted, Xu Bai descended from the Star Plucking Tower and headed towards the Imperial Palace.
Soon, they arrived at the Imperial Study.
At this time, Imperial Study was no longer in the Eunuch Wei Study; only Chief Mu was reviewing the memorials.
Upon seeing Xu Bai arrive, he put down his calligraphy brush, invited Xu Bai to sit down, and then took out a letter from his drawer and handed it to Xu Bai.
Xu Bai asked, "Was it left to me by His Majesty?"
In his understanding, since it was a letter, someone must have given it to him, and for Chief Mu to take it so seriously, it must have been the Chu Emperor, since the Chu Emperor had entrusted the Empress to give him a letter before this.
Chief Mu shook his head and said, "No, I gave it to you."
Upon hearing this, Xu Bai was speechless. "Actually, we can talk to each other right now since we're face to face."
He understood. Chief Mu's inexplicable personality had kicked in again, and he was inexplicably trying to project an air of superiority.
There's really no need for that. We're all face-to-face, so why not just talk it out? Why prepare a letter?
"You don't understand, this is what you call class." Chief Mu put his hands behind his back, returned to his seat, picked up the calligraphy brush again, thought for a moment, and then put it down.
Xu Bai felt he really wanted to leave a fist mark on Chief Mu's face, but after thinking about it, he realized it wasn't appropriate, so he could only tear the letter open.
He finally understood why Eunuch Wei Chief Mu were so at odds; Chief Mu's every word and action was truly a headache.
Despite the headache, Xu Bai saw the contents of the letter and quickly forgot about what had just happened. He frowned and began to read it carefully.
After nearly half an incense stick's time, Xu Bai finally put down the letter in his hand, his expression extremely solemn.
"According to your letter, not only have strange events been occurring frequently lately, but there are also more Ruins than before?"
The letter contained roughly this idea: it stated that in the past month, nearly thirty Ruins had appeared throughout the Great Chu Kingdom, which meant an average of one per day.
Although the Great Chu Kingdom is very large, the occurrence of such a small number is not considered a high proportion. However, it did not happen at such a high frequency in the past. Compared with the past, this frequency is much higher.
"What's going on?" Xu Bai asked.
He now attaches great importance to Ruins Ruins and wants to find out more about them. After all, the Chu Emperor had mentioned in his letter that his identity, or to put it bluntly, some secrets about his cheat ability, might be hidden within the Ruins.
He might not be very interested in other things, but anything related to cheat codes really piqued his interest.
He didn't have the ability or the opportunity to find out before, but now that he has a clue, he naturally wants to find out more.
"I don't know either," said Chief Mu. "For us, it might be a good thing."
"It not only allows us to obtain more resources, but also enables us to understand what happened at that time."
"The reason I showed this to you is to prepare you. Since the Barbarian Tribe were defeated, there has only been one incident on the Barbarian Tribe side, but we have found that it is gradually spreading, and it is estimated that it will soon be more frequent there."
Xu Bai put the letter back on the table, nodded, and indicated that he understood.
Now that he had received the news, he didn't plan to stay any longer and had to go back to find his Entering Sainthood Failure Insights.
However, since he was already there, he was not in a hurry to go back. After arriving at Eunuch Wei's place, he had another drink with Eunuch Wei before taking his leave.
By the time he returned to the palace, it was already very late.
"It's been so long since I've spent time with them, I'll stay with them tonight."
Xu Bai chuckled, rubbed his hands together, and walked towards where Chu Ling and Ye Zi were resting...
The next day.
With the help of the two women, Xu Bai got up, and Ye Zi Xu Bai helped him wash and dress.
Chu Ling was lying in Xu Bai's Xu Bai, gently leaning against his chest.
"Tired?" Xu Bai lowered his head, looking at Chu Ling face still showed some fatigue.
Chu Ling nodded, then shook her head. "There are too many things to deal with every day. Fortunately, I have Ye Zi to help me, and the various institutions are being improved recently, so it should be running normally soon."
Xu Bai smiled and patted Chu Ling's head, "Sometimes, once you've made the decision to take this position, you inevitably have to pay the price."
Chu Ling gave a soft "hmm," then buried her head in Xu Bai's chest without saying a word.
On the other side, Ye Zi slowly stood up. "Husband, I've finished washing and dressing."
Xu Bai hummed in agreement and patted Chu Ling on the back. "Today, I'm going to the Miao Sect."
Neither of the two women said anything. They didn't care what Xu Bai was doing, because they would unconditionally support whatever Xu Bai did.
Xu Bai didn't say much, got up and left.
He needs to hurry. If he can successfully obtain the Entering Sainthood Failure Insights, he needs to finish the progress bar as soon as possible.
After Xu Bai left, the two women looked at each other, speechless.
Chu Ling's brows still showed signs of fatigue.
"Sister, let me handle things for you lately. You just focus on getting better," Ye Zi said softly.
Chu Ling thought for a moment, then raised her hand to rub her forehead, exuding a lazy aura. "That's fine, this way I can rest for a while."
She seemed very tired, but because she had already been granted the title of Enfeoffment as a King and entered the world of emperors, she had already become a master of transcending the mortal realm by the time she was granted the Enfeoffment as a King. Even if she was exhausted, she shouldn't have been unable to recover in just one night.
Moreover, with the Barbarian Territory becoming increasingly better, her strength was also steadily increasing, making this situation even less likely.
Seeing Chu Ling's current state, Ye Zi said with slight concern, "Sister, why don't you tell your husband about this? He would be very happy if he knew."
Chu Ling shook her head again. "My husband has been in seclusion in the treasure vault these days, very busy. If I tell him about this, he will be very happy, but it will disrupt his plans."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zi looked down at Chu Ling's lower abdomen. "But... you can't hide this for long..."
