Little Brat, I Finally Get to Meet You

"What went wrong?"

Qian Renxue's heart leaped into her throat, and her little hand reached instinctively for her belly.

Lin Luo pricked up his ears at the same time.

He was quite concerned about the "baby plan." After all, he was the baby.

Light Feather Douluo frowned. "I was going to bring Second Brother over to our side. You know how much he dotes on you, but that fellow actually refused!"

"And that damn dog even said he was going to report our plan to Big Brother! I was so furious!!! In my anger, I dropped to my knees before him..."

Qian Renxue had been on edge, but suddenly the corner of her mouth twitched. "...And then?"

"I kowtowed to him and begged him not to report us."

Qian Renxue said, "...And then?"

Light Feather Douluo's face darkened. "He had a bit of a conscience, at least. He said he wouldn't report us, but he told me to persuade you not to struggle anymore. He said the child was certain to die."

"Big Brother is known for never going back on his word. He never takes back what he says."

Qian Renxue nodded silently and said softly, "I know..."

She instinctively wrapped both arms around her belly, as though protecting the person she treasured most.

"But I won't let anyone kill him. If they want to kill him, they'll have to kill me first. I'm not joking."

Qian Renxue's face was cold as she spoke.

Lin Luo listened quietly, and a different feeling suddenly welled up in his heart.

He could scarcely remember what Qian Renxue looked like anymore.

There were two reasons he wanted to be born soon. One was to develop, and the other was to meet Qian Renxue properly.

"Don't worry, Xue'er. There are still people supporting us. Ling Yuan Douluo has taken our side."

Light Feather Douluo counted them off on his fingers. "There are also Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo. Those two said they'd support you unconditionally and protect the little young master with their lives."

"Those three are the only ones among the elders. The other elders all listen to Bibi Dong. As for the enshrined..."

Light Feather Douluo paused there and said no more. Qian Renxue knew that he was the only enshrined on her side.

The others were all Qian Daoliu's loyal followers.

Qian Renxue smiled. "It's all right, Fifth Grandpa. That's already a lot."

Light Feather Douluo said earnestly, "Don't worry, Xue'er. If there's really no other way when the time comes, I'll get you and your child out of Spirit City, even if I have to stake these old bones on it."

"Mm. Thank you, Fifth Grandpa."

Tears shimmered in Qian Renxue's eyes as she spoke in a choked voice.

Light Feather Douluo gave a goofy smile and raised a hand to wipe away Qian Renxue's tears.

"Silly child, why are you crying? You're the bravest mother Fifth Grandpa has ever seen. Fifth Grandpa supports you unconditionally!"

"Mm!"

Compared with Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue's attitude toward her own child had indeed given Light Feather Douluo a different perspective.

Both children had been unwanted pregnancies, yet one woman treated her child like an enemy.

The other, however, treated her child like a treasure.

Were these two really mother and daughter? Their choices were as different as heaven and earth.

Spirit Hall was bitterly cold in winter, with gusts of icy wind.

Qian Renxue's belly grew larger and larger, and she grew more and more silent.

Not many people in Spirit Hall knew about her pregnancy. Apart from all the enshrined and elders, only a few healing Soul Masters knew.

Qian Daoliu had deliberately suppressed the news. He intended to strangle the "culprit" in the cradle before rumors spread everywhere.

After the child died, no one would know that the Great Enshrined's granddaughter had ever been pregnant, and Qian Renxue could return to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace to carry out the plan without any worries.

The days passed.

Then, one day a month later...

At last, the sound of a cup falling to the floor came from Qian Renxue's room.

Qian Renxue immediately raised a hand to brace herself against the table. Her face was pale and contorted with pain, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead in an instant.

She clamped her legs together beneath her skirt, but clear, warm amniotic fluid still ran down the insides of her snowy-white thighs.

Qian Renxue forcibly suppressed the pain coursing through her body, trying not to make the slightest sound.

At that very moment, Lin Luo felt his body turn upside down as the liquid around him rapidly drained away.

He, too, was descending in a very awkward position.

Was he finally going to see the world as it was ten thousand years ago?

But Qian Renxue's efforts to keep quiet did not have the result she wanted.

She still couldn't help crying out in pain, and her body fell onto the icy floor.

"Someone, help... save my child..."

At that moment, the atmosphere throughout the Worship Hall froze.

Seated at the head of the hall, Qian Daoliu opened his eyes, and an incomparably powerful surge of Soul Power erupted around him.

His expression grew grave, and in an instant, he vanished from his seat.

Seeing this, Light Feather Douluo quickly left as well.

Not long afterward...

Two groups stood outside Qian Renxue's residence, on full alert.

On one side were seven elders led by Bibi Dong; on the other were seven enshrined led by Qian Daoliu.

They stared grimly at the tightly shut door ahead. Inside, Jones, a healing Soul Master, was helping Qian Renxue deliver her baby.

Amid the girl's heart-rending cries of pain, a baby's loud wail rang out.

Jones immediately opened the door and came out, smiling. "The baby's here. It's a boy!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she found no trace of happiness on the faces of the two groups before her. Instead, the atmosphere had grown even grimmer.

Qian Daoliu said in a deep voice, "I see. Bring the baby out."

Sensing Qian Daoliu's hostility, Jones hesitated and made no move.

Bibi Dong said coldly, "Yue Guan, go get the child."

"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope."

Yue Guan was about to step forward when She Long and Pufferfish suddenly appeared in his path.

"What do you two think you're doing?"

Gui Mei was about to step in, only to be sent flying by a vicious kick from someone who suddenly appeared.

Boom!

Light Feather Douluo's expression was fierce as he slowly lowered his foot. A surging fluctuation of Soul Power flickered around his right foot and vanished.

He summoned his Martial Soul and held the Light Feather Divine Bow in his hand. Nine Soul Rings in the optimal configuration appeared around him.

At that moment, a look of resolve appeared on the face that was far too young for his age.

"Sorry, Big Brother. I, Guang Ling, am going to protect this child today."

Qian Daoliu frowned and watched the scene in silence.

Immediately afterward, She Long and Pufferfish moved behind Light Feather Douluo, their expressions grave.

Ling Yuan Douluo hesitated for a moment, then stepped out as well and stood in front of the door.

She couldn't help saying, "I'm sorry. As a woman myself, I understand how the young master feels."

Those words made Bibi Dong silently clench her fists, fury flashing in her purple eyes.

Guang Ling raised the Light Feather Divine Bow and took an attacking stance.

"Big Brother, I won't step aside today, no matter what you say. I, Guang Ling, keep my word. I'll do what I promised Xue'er!"

Qian Daoliu stood silently where he was, his face dark and frightening.

Meanwhile, inside the room...

Qian Renxue turned her head with difficulty, her hair plastered to her cheeks with sweat and tears. She strained to look at the swaddled bundle beside her, where a cute baby with a pair of bright eyes lay.

A pale smile appeared on Qian Renxue's face, and she reached her slender arm toward the child.

Lin Luo looked over as well, quietly studying the girl beside him. She was very weak, yet she looked just like an angel fallen to the mortal world.

She's so beautiful.

Suddenly, Lin Luo opened his mouth in a cute, toothless grin.

"Goo~"

Smiling, he raised a chubby little hand and caught the finger Qian Renxue had extended toward him.

At that moment, two people who had once had nothing to do with each other were bound by a chain of fate spanning the long river of their lives.

Tears streamed down Qian Renxue's face as she smiled happily. "Little brat, I finally get to meet you..."

Lin Luo said, "Goo~"
