Snow Empress's pregnancy was undoubtedly a major event.
Everyone was somewhat infected by the mood, their emotions carrying a hint of joy and excitement. Even Gu Yuena, who had inexplicably become a "childcare instructor," could not help but feel envious.
As Soul Beasts, she truly envied Snow Empress's circumstances.
Although her status and strength surpassed Snow Empress's, those were no longer the main points of comparison between them. While Snow Empress was enjoying happiness and fulfillment, she, the Lord of All Soul Beasts, still had no idea when she would be able to lead her race to rise again. The immense pressure on her shoulders left her restless day and night...
Yet under such circumstances, one person's spirits had remained low. That person was the Auspicious Beast, Three-Eyed Golden Lion Di Qiuer, whom Shen Hanyu had brought out of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Di Qiuer had actually been in an excellent mood ever since arriving in Spirit City. However, after staying for a little longer, her condition visibly began to deteriorate, though no one knew what had affected her.
Other than exchanging a few words with Gu Yuena and Shen Hanyu each day, the little girl merely forced smiles whenever she faced anyone else. Though she concealed it well, the perceptive people around her still noticed.
At first, Shen Hanyu had been busy dealing with Snow Empress's pregnancy. It was not until several days later that he noticed something was wrong with Di Qiuer's state. Today, he intended to make her tell him the truth.
When Di Qiuer saw Shen Hanyu arrive, a trace of conflict flashed through her beautiful eyes. She seemed to know very well why he had come, but she truly did not know how to tell him about this matter. Everything was arranged by fate.
