Divine Fetus

Yunmeng Marsh, Hidden Dragon Island.

This is one of the islands closest to Flying Peak in the center of the lake.

After Deception Rabbit and Xuansu Shi were brought back to Yunmeng Marsh, Xiluo arranged for them to stay on this island.

Xuansu Shi naturally looked like she was about to give birth.

Deception Rabbit diligently busied himself with chores, appearing every inch the good husband.

Xiluo, who had long seen through Xuansu Shi's true nature, simply smiled disdainfully and did not expose the other party's disguise.

Because she believed that Li Boyang would handle the matter well—without harming Deception Rabbit.

You probably already guessed it, right?

Looking at Deception Rabbit, Xuansu Shi suddenly asked.

"I've only been using you, from beginning to end."

"Wu Zhen isn't after you, she's after me. You're just an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire..."

"And the child in my womb was only born to control the Red Eye Cauldron."

Her body froze on the spot, Deception Rabbit, holding the grilled fish in her hands, fell silent.

Deception Rabbit wasn't stupid. After experiencing that great battle, how could he not have thought about the details and shady dealings involved?

Especially the illogical behavior of Xiluo and Li Boyang.

Knowing their personalities Deception Rabbit, E'tu quickly figured it out after a little thought.

"But our initial meeting wasn't something you intentionally arranged, was it?"

The encounter between Deception Rabbit and Xuansu Shi was full of coincidences and almost impossible to replicate.

If Deception Rabbit didn't have such a strong sense of justice...

If Xuansu Shi hadn't been injured and unconscious at that time...

If Xuansu Shi had changed the direction she fled in...

If Deception Rabbit had chosen a different route south...

If any one of the above coincidences were not true, Deception Rabbit would never have met Xuansu Shi.

Even the little things that happened during their time together after they met.

Deception Rabbit could see that Xuansu Shi was not the kind of deity who was deep in thought and skilled in strategy.

The fact that things have developed to this point is largely due to Xuansu Shi; she was simply going with the flow.

Even the final act of sending Deception Rabbit and letting him return to the Hundred Lands Mountain Range alone could hardly be considered a "test" by the Xuansu Shi.

Having been hunted for so long, Xuansu Shi could fully understand the pressure that Deception Rabbit was under.

Even if he never returns, Xuansu Shi would only feel relieved, not regret for having entrusted herself to the wrong person.

In fact, Xuansu Shi watched the Deception Rabbit gradually disappear into the distance, thinking that it was gone forever.

This is human nature; it's difficult to define it purely as good or evil.

"Besides, whatever your initial reasons, he is still my child."

With a similarly complicated expression, Deception Rabbit turned around and looked at Xuansu Shi's belly, speaking softly.

"We can talk about our relationship later, but right now I must save my child."

Just as Deception Rabbit was talking with Xuansu Shi, Xiluo's figure quietly appeared in the sky above the island.

"Deception Rabbit is right."

"Although I don't like you, you are not just yourself now."

Like Heavenly Immortal being, Xiluo slowly descended from the sky, becoming increasingly familiar with her current form.

"At least until you give birth to this child, you have no choice."

As the beautiful woman approached her step by step, Xuansu Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"You're right, I'm certainly not in a position to say such things right now."

"In a sense, I should be under house arrest right now, right?"

Xuansu Shi was telling the truth; her current identity was not Deception Rabbit's lover, but one of the many Ghost God imprisoned in Yunmeng Marsh.

"We should all be aligned on the goal of ensuring a safe delivery for our child."

This did not directly answer Xuansu Shi's question.

Xiluo just has a bit of a quirky sense of humor, she's not really stupid.

She couldn't bring herself to tell Deception Rabbit the truth that "Xuansu Shi was imprisoned."

Should we allow this child to be born?

Gently stroking her belly, Xuansu Shi's expression became even more complicated.

Although her initial intention was simply to preserve the [Red Eye Cauldron] given to her by Yu Guo, and then wait for the return of the God of the East Sea.

However, it cannot be denied that even Xuansu Shi herself knew how slim this hope was.

If Wu Zhen had been any more ruthless and disregarded the potential negative impact of the child's death on the [Red Eye Cauldron], Xuansu Shi would not have been able to reach these Hundred Lands Mountain Range alive.

After all, the symbiotic relationship between Kunwu and the [Sea-Calming Divine Treasure] is based on Kunwu's immortality.

As long as Kunwu is not killed, the [Sea-Calming Divine Treasure] will not fall into the hands of the great shamans.

In contrast, there are not only two [Red Eye Cauldron], but one of them is held by an unborn fetus.

It can only be said that Xuansu Shi Wu Zhen, which led her to make such a desperate and irrational move.

"This is a pregnancy-preserving pill that the baby specially made for you."

"Besides replenishing your nutritional deficiencies, it also contains extra Innate Primordial Qi to help the fetus develop."

Xiluo casually tossed a pill to Xuansu Shi, paused briefly, and then continued speaking.

"Furthermore, this fetus is a genuine Divine Fetus, and it is also blessed by the Red Eye Cauldron..."

"Leaving aside the immense Heavenly Tribulation his birth would cause, whether he could even safely develop to the point of birth is a question."

Upon hearing this, Deception Rabbit's eyes widened immediately.

"Heavenly Tribulation? What is that?"

Because he had been away from the Hundred Lands Mountain Range for too long, Deception Rabbit had no idea about the process of Jinjiao and Yinjiao's birth.

As for the Xuansu Shi, needless to say.

She was also unaware of the subsequent impact of "Wu Yi Shoots at Heaven" on the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

"Simply put, from now on, whenever Divine Fetus is born, the convergence of regional Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi) will cause a large backlash of corresponding Yuan Qi."

"The essence of the ' Heavenly Tribulation ' can be summarized in just a few simple words," Xiluo said, staring intently at Xuansu Shi.

"And your situation is more complicated than that of a typical Divine Fetus."

"If both mother and fetus are subjected to this Heavenly Tribulation, even the baby cannot guarantee your survival."

Xiluo admitted that there was an element of alarmism in her words, but it was enough to show the danger involved.

"What should we do then!?"

"Can't you think of a way? You absolutely have to save them!"

Perhaps due to her concern, Deception Rabbit hurriedly and anxiously pleaded with Xiluo.

He even forgot that Li Boyang was the key to solving the problem.

Most of the time, Xiluo only causes trouble and makes things worse.

"You stupid rabbit..."

Xiluo glared at Deception Rabbit with a look of disappointment and frustration, then took a deep breath.

"If it weren't for you, neither I nor the doll would have bothered with this troublesome matter!"
