Chapter 169 Boys and Girls
Chapter 169 Boys and Girls
In the blink of an eye, autumn has arrived.
Chu Miaomiao is five months pregnant, but her figure hasn't changed much. She's still slim, and you can't tell at all when she wears loose dresses. On the contrary, her appetite has increased a lot recently, and she can never get enough of the various delicacies cooked with spiritual herbs.
You must know that the child in her womb is a celestial fetus, a descendant of the Chinese immortal race who possesses an innate primordial spirit, so of course she must nurture it with care.
Ye Mo would go to inspect the coastal defense line every seven days.
He spent the rest of his time in Suzhou with Chu Miaomiao.
Later on, he only went to the coastal defense line once a month.
Considering his special circumstances, the Dragon Group and headquarters handed over the defense matters to other elders as deputies, allowing him to stay home and take care of his wife during her pregnancy.
Qin Xi temporarily stopped her cultivation to take care of Chu Miaomiao, just like Chu Miaomiao had taken care of her when she was pregnant.
As for the six elders in the family, they would go out every year to travel around, visiting all seven continents and going to many places they had never been before.
Little Yao Yao is thirteen years old. Her body is developing and growing day by day, gradually becoming graceful and elegant. She has changed a lot as she grows up. Her face still has some childishness, but she is already beautiful and charming. If she grows up and matures, she will definitely be a fairy beauty like Qin Xi.
During this time, Yun Chen was in the mortal realm and did nothing. He read the ancient and modern scriptures of the Chinese immortal clan again and again, trying to comprehend new insights from these scriptures.
He has been studying the "Red Dust Immortal Scripture" in particular.
He was trying to find the path to becoming a Celestial Emperor in the Mortal World.
He kept a low profile and never went out.
He was studying the Immortal Scripture of the Mortal World, trying to comprehend it in a mortal state, hoping to understand the will left behind by the first emperor who created the world.
"We are the continuation of the lives of the sage emperors of the past. The fact that I have become an emperor in such a short time in this life must be because I have a great mission to undertake. I must find the root of darkness and strangeness, destroy it all, and liberate the whole world from the corruption of darkness."
"Where does the darkness and eeriness originate?"
"What exactly happened in the Immortal Realm?"
"When I attained enlightenment in the Ziwei Great Domain, why did I never hear about the Immortal Realm being corrupted by darkness?"
"Could it be that that realm was also severed by the Emperor?"
"Who brought me there?"
"Which sage was it that pushed me to become emperor?"

Why do this?
Is there a significant connection between this and the Chinese immortal clan?
Yun Chen muttered to himself, closing his eyes to contemplate.
During this period, he didn't even leave his room.
He flipped through the Scripture of Immortals in his hand, trying to comprehend its contents while remaining in a mortal state.
On his desk were many of his notes, and piles of papers were scattered everywhere. These were his notebooks, written casually, with characters that seemed to come alive, full of vitality, exuding a powerful energy, and brimming with boundless vigor and hope.
If we really count the time, Yun Chen has only been an emperor for a short period of time.
Moreover, his becoming an Immortal Emperor was actually orchestrated by someone.
An unseen force is deliberately doing this, surely to send him on an important mission. He has already guessed this mission: to find the source of darkness and seek a way to resolve it.
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.
Chu Miaomiao has been pregnant for a year and a half.
At this moment, her body shape has changed noticeably, her lower abdomen is visibly protruding, showing the characteristics of a five or six-month-old fetus. This is the first time she has experienced this, and it is quite amazing.
A pregnancy that lasts a year and a half is unheard of in the past. Now, without doctors or medical equipment, as cultivators, they can clearly understand the condition of the fetus in the womb. Everything is fine, and the little one is full of vitality and very active.
Chu Miaomiao's face radiated maternal love as she gently rubbed her noticeably protruding belly, eagerly anticipating the arrival of her child.
In the secluded Peach Blossom Paradise, in a room reserved just for the two of them, Ye Mo held her in his arms and joked, "You're not going to be pregnant for three years, are you? It would be terrible if you gave birth to a demon ball."
Chu Miaomiao pouted in dissatisfaction: "Oh, you're the devil! Your child will definitely be just as smart, beautiful, and cute as me."
Ye Mo gently rubbed her cheeks: "You're both adorable."
In the courtyard, Qin Xi was discussing philosophy with Xiao Yaoyao.
Afterwards, Xiao Yaoyao said to Qin Xi, "Mom, how about I make a bet with you?"
Qin Xi smiled and shook her head, taking her little hand in hers: "No gambling, Mommy never does anything without being sure of success."
Little Yao Yao said coquettishly, "Oh, Mom, it's okay if we don't gamble, how about we guess a riddle instead?"
Qin Xi asked, "What mystery?"
Little Yao Yao said, "Let's guess whether Aunt Miao Miao's baby is a boy or a girl. I guess it's a girl, just like me."
Qin Xi said, "Then Mom guesses it's a boy."
Little Yao Yao asked, "Why didn't Mommy guess it was a girl?"
Qin Xi replied, "Because my darling, you're already a girl, so I guessed it was a boy."
Little Yao Yao then asked, "Do you and Daddy have any plans to bring Yao Yao a little brother?"
Qin Xi was speechless for a moment, unsure of what to say. Looking at Xiao Yaoyao's expectant eyes, she replied, "Well, that requires Mom and Dad to discuss it carefully."
She asked Xiao Yaoyao in return, "If your parents brought you a younger brother or sister, would you be happy?"
Without hesitation, Xiao Yaoyao replied, "Of course I would."
Qin Xi took her hand and hugged her.
Her voice was filled with helplessness: "It's good that Yao Yao is willing, but younger siblings won't come so easily."
Little Yao Yao didn't understand: "Why?"
Qin Xi ruffled her hair and said with a smile, "Yao Yao will understand when she's a little older."
It took Chu Miaomiao such a long time to get pregnant after she and Ye Mo became partners.
She and Yun Chen were the same; after so many years of loving relationship, Xiao Yao Yao had grown up so much that it would be difficult for them to have any more children.
The higher the cultivation level and the deeper the Dao practice of the immortal race, the more difficult it is for them to conceive a child, because it is very difficult to give birth to an innate primordial spirit. This is also the reason why every immortal is so precious.
The world has been quite turbulent during this period.
The sea monsters continue to cause harm.
However, the Huaxia Immortal Clan was very united and always confronted these beasts, preventing them from even having the opportunity to land.
The technology of the Huaxia Immortal Clan is advancing rapidly.
Relying on the numerous scriptures left by their predecessors and a solid technological foundation, and through training, a large number of master craftsmen emerged, achieving one positive cycle after another. The talents of the immortal race in all aspects were exploding, and all industries achieved leapfrog development.
Furthermore, they have made many achievements in interstellar exploration beyond Earth. However, the Huaxia Immortal Clan seems to have an unyielding obsession with farming, and the first thing they do when developing any planet is the same.
For example, after a silvery-white elixir was brought to the moon and cultivated on a large scale, the lunar environment underwent tremendous changes. The surface was covered with fields of medicinal herbs. From Earth, the entire moon radiated a bright and dazzling silver light, pure, holy, and flawless.
With today's highly advanced technology, surviving on the moon and exploring other geological planets are no longer difficult tasks. However, apart from those cultivators who focus on scientific research, generally speaking, no one would choose to leave Earth.
If people want to gain experience, they naturally have better options: entering various secret realms. The vast and boundless world within these realms is far more colorful and diverse than a dark and empty universe.
In other words, the ancestral land of Blue Star was actually banished to this universe by the Emperor for protection, isolated from all external influences. Therefore, in this universe, apart from the ancestral land of Blue Star, there are almost no other living beings.
As for the so-called extraterrestrial life in other star systems, they actually originated from Blue Star countless epochs ago and are creatures from other races. Although they have evolved to a high level of intelligence, they cannot be called human. For example, the Trisolaran civilization, which was destroyed by Yun Chen with a single slap, was only referred to as humanoid beings.
Nowadays, even the most powerful sea monsters can transform into human form. Does this mean that those who wear the skin of immortals are immortals?
