That night, everyone tacitly refrained from visiting Ling Xi, which allowed Ling Xi to spend some time alone with Li Sushang. This was a tacit understanding among them.

Of course, this only applies to tonight; tomorrow night will still be "Empresses in the Palace"!

"Master... um... can I still call you that?"

After omitting 15,000 words, Li Sushang looked at Ling Xi with a slight blush on her face.

"All right."

Ling Xi was also very satisfied with Li Sushang's attitude and service, and smiled, "Of course, you can call me something else if you want, husband, my lord, Ling Xi, or... darling?"

"Eh... never mind, I'll just call you Master."

Li Sushang pursed her lips. She felt that of the various titles used, only "husband" was somewhat normal; the others...

Calling him by his first name feels too formal, and the last one... well, never mind, it gives me the creeps.

"Ah, good..."

Ling Xi naturally wouldn't have any objections to this; she could do whatever she liked, and the form of address didn't matter.

"Master..."

Li Sushang suddenly whispered, "Um... you clearly have so many wives, and some of them have been together for a long time, but..."

"Why are only Seele and Bianca having babies now?"

Li Sushang was somewhat concerned about this issue. After all these years, her master still had no children, and the oldest was only three months pregnant.

"Well..."

Ling Xi hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's probably because of my constitution that it seems like everyone has a hard time getting pregnant."

"Oh oh..."

Li Sushang nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's like the setting in some novels and games, the more powerful a person is, the harder it is for them to have offspring, right?"

"Forehead..."

Ling Xi paused for a moment, then shook her head. "Probably, but this is just a setting in the game. Don't bring it into real life."

"Cut..."

Li Sushang pursed her lips and silently began to think. Then, as if she had thought of something, she blushed.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Li Sushang's face suddenly turned red, Ling Xi couldn't help but ask her out of curiosity.

"Ugh..."

Li Sushang looked slightly shy, "Um... Master, I... I also..."

"You want one too?"

Ling Xi asked tentatively...

"Hmm..."

Li Sushang's face immediately turned even redder, but she did not deny it, and nodded slightly...

"No problem."

Ling Xi flipped over and took the initiative, laughing, "Although I don't know if we can succeed, but... if we don't try, we definitely won't succeed. Sushang, are you ready?"

"Eh? Um... Master, I... I didn't mean now... Ooh..."

Li Sushang was about to refuse, after all, her master's fighting power was too strong, even she couldn't withstand it, but...

Okay, she was taken down again before she could finish speaking, after all...

The battle just ended, and the battlefield hasn't even been cleaned up yet, so we can continue fighting without any hindrance.

Li Sushang: "..."

A week later, Li Sushang, who couldn't stay idle, went with Cheng Lixue to participate in the Valkyrie assessment. After all, she had learned so many skills from Ling Xi and Fu Hua, wasn't it all for the purpose of fighting?

However, the enemies were too weak back then. Even when Honkai Beast occasionally appeared, Honkai Beast were mostly in their primitive form and could be killed in two moves without any difficulty!

This greatly displeased Li Sushang, who possessed great skills but had nowhere to vent them. Now that she had finally arrived in this era, she was determined to have some fun. Honkai Beast, huh? Well, I'll take care of Honkai Beast.

And so, Li Sushang couldn't wait to participate in the Valkyrie assessment. Even though Ling Xi and everyone else advised her to rest for a while longer, they couldn't stop her from wanting to do good deeds.

"Speaking of my dear Ling Xi..."

At home, Elysia looked at Ling Xi with a smile and asked, "What's next...?"

"What?"

Ling Xi was taken aback, somewhat confused about what Elysia meant.

"Hmph..."

Elysia simply snorted and said, "What are you pretending for? I'm just asking if you have any undiscovered wives, dormant wives, or wives from the future or from parallel worlds?"

"Uh... that's all, it's really gone this time."

Ling Xi quickly raised her hands and laughed, "Even if there are more in the future, they will definitely be people we already know. There will absolutely be no more 'parachuted-in' people, and..."

At this point, Ling Xi felt a little embarrassed and laughed, "Actually, I should have awakened Sushang after the Second Honkai War, but... I forgot."

Elysia "..."

"Puff..."

Elysia burst out laughing and couldn't help but retort, "Seriously? You can forget such a cute girl? You're not going to forget me one day, are you?"

"How could that be?"

Ling Xi resolutely denied it, and said righteously, "Even if I forget everything, I will never forget Elysia, after all, our Elysia is the cutest girl in the world."

"Hehe, that's more like it..."

Elysia nodded in satisfaction, then turned around and sat on Ling Xi's lap with a mischievous smile. "Ling Xi... you've forgotten about Li Sushang, right? You probably don't want her to know, do you?"

Ling Xi: "???" Damn, are you Far East Elysia?

"Sister Elysia! What are you all doing so early in the morning?"

At this moment, Pardo also appeared, yawning as she walked towards the living room. As a nocturnal cat, waking up early has always been Pardo's biggest enemy. Although this was a habit she developed in Twilight Street, she still can't change it now.

"Oh? You're in such a good mood so early in the morning? Can I join you?"

Mobius also came out of the room and saw Elysia causing trouble again.

"Of course, dear Mobius."

Elysia smiled slightly and said, "After all, we have to work hard for our future."

"Give up, Elysia."

Vill-V smiled slightly and said, "After all, some people, no matter how hard they try, it's impossible..."

Mobius: "..." I should have left this girl in the base to be buried alive!

Chapter 720 Goodness, Wendy's here too?

After breakfast, Mobius went to the laboratory as usual, preparing to test Wendy's genes and blood sample again today, as this would be very helpful for his research on the Herrscher.

Furthermore, because dynamic studies are required, blood samples need to be drawn frequently; otherwise, Wendy's real-time condition cannot be detected. Therefore...

In just ten days, Wendy had her blood drawn four times. Although she protested more than once, her protests were in vain!

Today, Mobius went to Wendy again to get a blood sample for routine testing, but...

"Huh? This is..."

Suddenly, Mobius noticed some discrepancies in Wendy's data. This wasn't to say that Wendy was abnormal, but rather...

Mobius hesitated for a moment, then decisively sent a message to Ling Xi.

"Whoosh..."

About ten seconds later, the spatial wormhole reappeared in the laboratory, and Ling Xi walked out of it as always.

"Doctor, is there something you need?"

Upon arriving at the laboratory, Ling Xi looked at her Dr. Mobius.

"There's something I'd like to ask you."

Mobius turned around and laughed, "How many times have you and Wendy done it lately?"

"Ha?"

When Ling Xi heard Mobius's question, she almost thought she had misheard. When did the Doctor start liking such gossip topics?

"Um... I'm not really sure either."

However, Ling Xi didn't know how to answer this question. It wasn't that she wanted to hide it, but she really didn't know. After all, with so many people in her family, who could remember so clearly?

"I see..."

After a moment's thought, Mobius continued, "So, on which days out of these ten days did you sleep with Wendy?"

"Forehead..."

Ling Xi hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Well... about two or three days, but I don't know exactly which day. After all, sometimes it's dark, and sometimes I'm blindfolded, so I don't know who the other person is."

Mobius: "..." You really know how to play...

"The night Wendy became Herrscher, did you sleep with her?"

Mobius was too lazy to ask any more questions; he just wanted to confirm one thing.

"I have done that before."

Ling Xi finally stopped shaking her head, nodded and smiled, "After all, that girl just became Herrscher, so I wanted to see how it was different from before. But it seems there's no difference in the experience, although she looks even better in her Herrscher form."

"I knew it..."

At this moment, Mobius nodded thoughtfully, as if he had come up with some idea.

"Huh? What? I knew it was true?"

Seeing Mobius's confident expression, Ling Xi was naturally very curious.

"Why..."

Mobius chuckled and said, "Heh, I noticed a slight anomaly in Wendy's data the day before yesterday, but at the time I just thought it was an error caused by Wendy's Herrscher power. But now it seems that's not the case."

"So? Doctor, can you get to the point?"

Ling Xi shrugged, not wanting to listen to the Doctor's preamble.

"Okay, the point is..."

Mobius smiled slightly, then picked up the test report on the table and said with a smile, "Wendy is very likely pregnant as well."

"Ha?"

Ling Xi was stunned for a moment, "Doctor, you mean... Wendy too?"

"That's right!"

Mobius nodded slightly and said, "According to the test results of the past few days, Wendy's body is transitioning towards pregnancy. In other words, her various indicators are preparing to welcome the birth of a new life. Based on current estimates, Wendy is about ten days pregnant."

"About ten days?"

Ling Xi stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, "But Wendy and I have been together for three months already, haven't we? And during this time, I've done a lot to enhance her Honkai Energy, so why is she only getting pregnant now?"

"That's the crux of the matter."

Mobius smiled slightly and said, "Ling Xi, do you remember what happened to Wendy ten days ago?"

"Ten days ago? Wasn't that when we went to the polar island... huh?"

Suddenly, Ling Xi seemed to realize something, because ten days ago Wendy was just an ordinary person, or rather, a human, and on that day...

Wendy received the Desire Gem and truly awakened as the Fourth Herrscher. And the time the Doctor just mentioned when Wendy became pregnant seems to be...

"It seems you already guessed it."

Mobius smiled slightly and said, "I've considered many possibilities, but I never expected it to be this one. Is it because you're also Herrscher?"
