Chapter 2506 - 2196: Zhou Youyou Is Pregnant

Upon hearing Helian Tieshan’s words, Li Shuo slightly furrowed his brows.

It seems the people from Sky Wolf Palace aren’t so easily deceived.

Li Shuo asked, "Tell me, what do you want?"

Helian Tieshan didn’t immediately answer; the matter was significant and needed to be reported to their Palace Master for him to decide.

After thinking for a moment, Helian Tieshan said, "I will report this to our Palace Master. He will decide on the demands."

Li Shuo said, "Alright, I await your news."

At this point, Helian Tieshan stood up: "If there’s nothing else, I won’t disturb you further."

Li Shuo said indifferently, "Take care."

Helian Tieshan turned and headed towards the door.

Just as he reached the door, he suddenly thought of something. He turned back and smiled at Li Shuo, asking, "Is the inheritance truly not with Lu Chen?"

Li Shuo replied, "Based on the intelligence we’ve gathered, there is no inheritance within."

Upon hearing this, Helian Tieshan was momentarily stunned.

No inheritance?

What kind of joke is this?

How could there be no inheritance?

This intelligence was provided by Tianji Pavilion.

After regaining his composure, Helian Tieshan said, "Are you joking with me?"

Li Shuo responded, "This is the intelligence provided by our Princess."

Helian Tieshan paused for a moment. Li Shuo’s tone didn’t seem to be lying; could it be that there really is no inheritance inside?

After regaining his composure, Helian Tieshan chuckled softly and said, "I was actually fooled by your joke, but this joke isn’t funny at all."

Li Shuo said calmly, "Believe it or not."

Li Shuo didn’t expect Helian Tieshan to believe him; after all, even he didn’t believe there was no inheritance in the ruins.

But this was indeed the intelligence mentioned in the Princess’s letter.

Of course, it couldn’t be ruled out that Lu Chen might have used the Princess’s name to deliver false information to him.

Actually, whether or not there was an inheritance didn’t matter much. Even if he told others there was no inheritance with Lu Chen, the factions wouldn’t believe it anyway.

Li Shuo was merely mentioning it casually.

Helian Tieshan then turned around, raised his hand, and waved, saying, "Alright, I won’t continue talking nonsense with you. Once you’ve gathered intelligence on our Palace’s Saintess, send someone to inform me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Helian Tieshan left the conference hall directly.

After Helian Tieshan left, Li Shuo immediately headed to the study to write a letter to Wu Junwan, asking her to pay attention to the situation regarding the Saintess of Sky Wolf Palace.

At night, the night was as dark as ink.

The sky was devoid of stars and moonlight.

The world seemed to be plunged into chaos.

A solitary lamp illuminated the room, with wisps of incense smoke swirling before the desk.

Chu Yuqin sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the projection before her, her brows furrowed slightly, seemingly anxious about something.

Recently, Lu Chen had become increasingly indulgent. Previously, he was often away from Zhen Nan Prince Manor because he had to patrol the Small World and capture those sent into the Small World as the Mysterious.

But lately, it seems that outside forces realized sending more Mysteries inside was futile, as those Mysteries couldn’t bring back the Ancient Inheritance, so they gradually gave up the plan of sending Mysteries inside to search for the Ancient Inheritance.

This gave Lu Chen a break.

Thus, Lu Chen spent most of his time at Zhen Nan Prince Manor, staying with his wives and concubines all day.

Chu Yuqin often used the Shadow Exploration Stone to monitor Lu Chen for observation.

As a result, every time she used the Shadow Exploration Stone to observe Lu Chen, he was engaged in indecent acts with women on the bed.

Lu Chen had also told her that he would break through to the Saint Realm within 20 years. But the way he was now, spending his days with women, he wouldn’t reach the Saint Realm in 100 years, much less 20 years. It was hard for her to understand his mindset.

Chu Yuqin really wanted to remind Lu Chen to focus on his cultivation.

But every time she planned to approach him, he was involved in those acts with women, making it difficult for her to interrupt.

At this point, Chu Yuqin put away the Shadow Exploration Stone, ceasing to spy on Lu Chen.

She thought that if another two years passed and Lu Chen remained as he was, still preoccupied with women, she would talk to him.

Meanwhile, in Zhou Youyou’s room, Lu Chen was striving.

Suddenly, a system notification rang in his mind: "Ding, congratulations to the host for helping his wife conceive an offspring, rewarding one drop of Undying Blood."

Hearing the system’s reward, Lu Chen was stunned during his act.

Lu Chen had long given up hope of conceiving offspring with wives with Mysterious bodies. Ji Yunmeng, being human, might bear children through their passion.

But Yun Yudie and the others, who were the Ancestors of the Strange with Mysterious bodies, no matter how often they engaged in pleasure, couldn’t conceive his child.

If they could conceive his child, they would’ve long since done so.

Mostly, Lu Chen maintained intimate relations with Yun Yudie and the others to keep his bond strong, as they were all his women. He couldn’t favor some over others; he needed to share his affection, especially as they needed to devour vitality.

Thus, whenever Lu Chen engaged with Yun Yudie, Zhou Youyou, and the others, it was purely for enjoyment, without Dual Cultivation, nor did he expect them to bear his child.

But today, the system notification suddenly sounded, something Lu Chen hadn’t expected. Humans and the Mysterious weren’t unable to conceive offspring?

Lu Chen immediately opened the system interface to confirm, and seeing the information on the system interface, he came to his senses, feeling extremely excited. He hadn’t expected Zhou Youyou to be pregnant, indicating that humans and the Mysterious could conceive offspring, albeit perhaps requiring more time and with a lower probability.

At that moment, Zhou Youyou lay on the bed, her flushed face looking at Lu Chen. Seeing Lu Chen motionless, a hint of delight appeared on her face.

She was in bliss; why had Lu Chen suddenly stopped?

Lu Chen then raised his hand, pinching her adorable face, and smiled, saying, "Little Youyou, I have good news for you."

Zhou Youyou asked naively, "What good news?"

Lu Chen answered directly, "You are pregnant with my child."

Hearing this, Zhou Youyou’s pupils slightly contracted, her mouth opened slightly, and she showed a hint of shock.

She was a Mysterious entity; how could she be pregnant with a human’s child?

Lu Chen must be teasing her.

Thinking this, Zhou Youyou pouted, saying, "You’re only teasing me; how could I be pregnant with your child?"

She had spent plenty of time in bed with Lu Chen. She wanted to be his woman more than Wu Junwan ever did, yet Wu Junwan not only bore his child but their child was already so big, and she never conceived Lu Chen’s child. How could she be pregnant now?

Recalling Lu Chen often teased her before, Zhou Youyou took his words as a playful jest.

Seeing Zhou Youyou not believe, Lu Chen embraced her body, then sat up, letting her straddle him, and said, "Why don’t you sense your body?"

Hearing this, Zhou Youyou hesitantly used Deceitful Evil to examine herself.

Though she was convinced Lu Chen was kidding, she harbored a faint sense of anticipation.

As Deceitful Evil gathered at her lower belly, Zhou Youyou indeed found a spot where Deceitful Evil couldn’t penetrate. There seemed to be a small dot, repelling Deceitful Evil, rich with vitality, like a nurturing life.

Sensing the small dot filled with vitality, Zhou Youyou was thunderstruck.
