Even after leaving the palace, Calia's voice still echoed in my ears:
" Nicholas, the Menethil bloodline cannot be severed. I originally intended to bestow upon you the title of prince, but you married Fenna, and I have no choice. I don't approve of anyone else, so this is the only option."
"Our child's surname is Menethil. He is the heir to Lordaeron, the future king of Lordaeron. Don't think about it. No one will know about this. Just pretend it never happened."
"I know the truth will eventually come out. I'll explain to Fenna when the time comes. Nicholas, you... go."
Jiang Jie is still feeling dizzy.
He only loves Fenna, and he can guarantee that.
He has never had any ambiguous relationships with any women, a fact that readers can attest to.
He never imagined that Calia would drug him...
He didn't know what kind of feelings Calia had for him, and he didn't know if Calia was doing this entirely based on wanting to leave behind a sufficiently excellent bloodline for the House Menethil.
He knows nothing; he's very slow on the uptake.
He didn't want to think of Calia in a bad light; he didn't want to think about anything, nor was he in the mood to.
He now just wanted to know how he was going to explain this to Fenna.
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and finally, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind:
Forget it, I won't explain anymore!
Let nature take its course. Perhaps, as Calia said, the best solution is to wait until the truth can no longer be concealed, and then let Calia explain?
Jiang Jie didn't want to stay in Lordaeron, so he quickly returned to Stratholme.
" Nicholas, I've been feeling a bit nauseous these past couple of days." Fenna came over, rubbing her stomach. "Do you think I might be pregnant?"
Jiang Jie's eyes lit up. "Let me see!"
He quickly placed his hand on Fenna's stomach and then felt that yin and yang energies were intertwined in her abdomen, nurturing life.
"Yes, we have a child." Jiang Jie smiled.
He has a child!
He's going to be a father!
"Do you think it will be a boy or a girl?" Fenna asked expectantly.
"Either is fine... I prefer girls, they'll definitely be as beautiful as you." Jiang Jie smiled.
"I prefer boys. Boys don't have to worry, girls do." Fenna smiled too.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The wedding took place as scheduled.
This must be the grandest wedding in Azeroth in a century; the number of people attending could rival the entire world.
King Varian was unwell and sent General Marcus with Stormwind City's blessing.
King Magni came in person, bringing with him a precious gift: two small, exquisite Arcanite daggers, inlaid with priceless gems, as an early gift for the children.
Highlord Darius also arrived in person, along with King Genn in human form.
Highlord Falstad also came, presenting a Stormhammer, which was said to have been used by his father and was extremely valuable.
Sylvanas didn't come, Vereesa, representing the Windrunner family, presented a purple epic Windrunner's Warbow and, on behalf of Prince Kael'thas was far away in Outland, a purple epic amulet.
Jaina didn't come, so Miss Lorna rushed over and brought a double-barreled musket.
Malfurion and Tyrande came together, and even Cenarius came, each offering gifts and blessings.
It was certainly inappropriate for members of the Horde to be present on such an occasion, but a few days earlier, Eitrigg, accompanied by an Orcs mage, had visited Stromgarde to deliver gifts and blessings from the Orcs Warchief.
Of course, the most important guest was Admiral Daelin, Fenna's father.
The revelation of Fenna's identity caused a great uproar; there were very few people in the world who knew her true identity.
People are only now realizing that Fenna is actually the true princess of Kul Tiras, or at least equivalent to that status.
Although there are no kings or princesses in Kul Tiras, a grand duke and a princess are a perfect match, a match made in heaven.
The wedding went smoothly, and after a satisfying meal, everyone dispersed.
With Fenna pregnant, Jiang Jie could no longer do anything wrong, so he calmed down and focused on cultivation.
Two months later, he finally completely digested and absorbed the remnants of the five Loa, and his own soul was also elevated to the Legendary level.
To achieve Legendary simultaneously with one's soul—in this world, very few can reach that level.
Although Aegwynn's soul was so powerful that it firmly reached the level of Demigod, her physical abilities were only slightly stronger than those of an ordinary person.
Marshal Lothar, at his peak, should have reached Legendary status, but his soul was still lacking.
I wonder if King Thoradin back then could have achieved both spiritual and physical Legendary.
After counting them all, in the human world, only Uther has firmly reached this level. Of course, we're not counting Turalyon, who's still nowhere to be found!
If all races are taken into account, then Malfurion is naturally at this level, and his soul strength is even higher, reaching the level of Demigod.
Illidan's body and soul should both be stronger than Jiang Jie's.
Not to mention the several Wild God, who are even stronger.
Jiang Jie has a long road ahead of him.
"The improvement of True Essence is endless. I only have three drops of True Essence now, and the road ahead is long. But my cultivation should not stagnate." Jiang Jie remembered Xiao Feng's words.
With two drops of True Essence within the body, one can consider the next step: the Two Aspects Realm.
However, there are many kinds of Two Aspects:
Yin and Yang are the Two Aspects, water and fire are the Two Aspects, life and death are the Two Aspects, hardness and softness are the Two Aspects, purity and turbidity are the Two Aspects.
There are countless forms of Two Aspects; choosing which two to use is of great importance.
Jiang Jie hasn't decided yet.
He needs more time.
But he already had a direction.
"The Five Animals are still missing the bear and bird, Nine Resemblances of the Divine Dragon are even more lacking. We should consider these now." Jiang Jie nodded slightly.
The transformation of Chi qi into form and Animal Form is a further refinement of his abilities. Mastering more Animal Form will make Jiang Jie even stronger.
Hua Tuo's choice of five specific animals was deliberate.
The combination of these five Animal Form can fully mobilize every muscle and every part of the body. Once all five Animal True Form are completed, Jiang Jie's strength will surely be elevated to a new level, the level that a senior True Unity Earth Immortal should have.
The Nine Resemblances of the Divine Dragon must be completed before becoming Four Symbols Earth Immortal. For Jiang Jie, completing the True Dragon Form is a prerequisite for advancing to the Four Symbols Earth Immortal.
"The problem is, where can we perceive the forms of bears and birds? If only we had the blessing of a bear Demigod and a crow Demigod," Jiang Jie sighed, shaking his head.
That's certainly difficult.
The Raven Demigod has long since returned to the Moon Goddess's abode and is difficult to find. The Bear Demigod died in the War of the Ancients, and his soul resides in the Emerald Dream. However, the Emerald Dream is now so dangerous that it's impossible to enter and search for them.
Do I really have to find a bear's den or a flock of birds and slowly try to understand?
Too troublesome, too time-consuming.
Jiang Jie looked worried and distressed.
Late at night, an unexpected guest arrived—it was Vol'jin.
" Nicholas, something's happened."
Vol'jin's face was grim. " The Zandalari Trolls rescued Zul'jin and want to rebuild the Zul'Aman Empire. We must stop them!"
