Qinglu followed the trail of blood to find their traces, eliminating several cold-blooded beastmen before finally finding Yu Wanwan's shadow.

When he saw Wangye lying on the ground, lifeless, he paused for a moment, then stepped forward and supported the little female's shoulder.

The little female trembled, but her tension subsided when she saw Qinglu.

"Qinglu, I can't save Wangye..."

Qinglu carefully wiped away her tears. Her eyes were red and swollen, just like when he first saw her, looking pitiful and heartbreaking.

"It's not your fault, Wanwan. Let's take Wangye back," Qinglu gently advised.

Yu Wanwan sniffed, and Qinglu helped her stand up from the ground.

She had just straightened up when darkness engulfed her, and she felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she fainted.

When I woke up again, I was in an unfamiliar environment.

Qinglu stayed by her side. When he saw that she was awake, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then nervously looked her up and down.

"Wanwan, are you alright?"

Yu Wanwan was still somewhat dazed and gently shook her head.

The shaman carried a bowl of herbal soup into the cave. When he saw that Yu Wanwan was awake, his expression immediately became excited: "Wanwan, you're finally awake! We were so worried about you!"

When he saw Qinglu holding the limp Yu Wanwan, he almost couldn't catch his breath.

Yu Wanwan said softly, "I'm the one who made you worry."

She didn't know what happened; she lost consciousness as soon as she stood up.

"It's nothing, it's just that Qinglu is worried." At that time, Qinglu's expression was terrifying, as if he were about to take his life. His hands were shaking when he took his pulse.

However, when the topic of treatment came up, the witch doctor put the medicine aside and laughed, "Wanwan, you'd better be careful from now on, you're pregnant!"

"Wh-what?" Yu Wanwan was stunned, thinking she had misheard.

The witch doctor smiled and said again, "I told you you're pregnant. You just fainted because you were too emotional and weak."

Yu Wanwan looked at Qinglu, who picked up the medicine, blew on it to cool it down, and then presented it to her with a gentle expression: "The witch doctor was right, Wanwan, we're having a baby."

Yu Wanwan blinked, reached out and touched her stomach, looking confused.

The area was perfectly flat, but suddenly someone told her that there was a little life inside.

She had never experienced such a strange feeling before.

Qinglu brought the medicine to her lips and said, "Wanwan, you're not feeling well. Drink your medicine and rest for a while."

The witch doctor also said, "Yes, Wanwan, you must rest well and not get emotional, so that you can have a smooth delivery."

After taking her medicine and eating, Yu Wanwan was laid down by Qinglu and covered with a blanket. She was dazed and passively complied throughout the whole process.

She was so tired that even though she had just woken up, she fell asleep again as soon as she closed her eyes.

Qinglu went out with the shaman, who kept instructing Qinglu on how to take care of the pregnant female so that the offspring would be healthy.

Qinglu then asked him many questions about how to supplement nutrition to improve the female's health, and he carefully wrote down everything the shaman said.

Yu Wanwan is now a key protected individual and needs to be taken care of even more carefully. He doesn't want Yu Wanwan's body to be ruined by the cub. If she is affected by it, Qinglu doesn't mind removing the little thing from her body.

Yu Wanwan was newly pregnant, which was the most unstable time for her, so the team's journey to Dragon Island slowed down.

Several orcs were anxious and wanted Qinglu to go ahead to Dragon Island for help, but Qinglu couldn't bear to leave the pregnant Yu Wanwan with these weak orcs, and refused no matter what.

He only took out a piece of dragon bone and gave it to the orcs, telling them to take the token to Dragon Island first, and that he would come back later.

Yu Wanwan still couldn't quite believe it. She was looking forward to the child, but now that they were on the run, she was really worried.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Wanwan contacted the God of Time again through the plants.

When the God of Time learned of her pregnancy, he immediately offered his excited congratulations, his excitement surpassing even that of someone who was pregnant himself.

At the same time, the God of Time remembered something and earnestly advised, "Wanwan, now that you are pregnant, you must not continue to pray. If you want to plant the spirit flower, you must wait at least two months until you give birth to the cub!"

"Why?"

The God of Time said, "Your body is currently weak, and praying consumes a lot of your mental energy. Too many prayers will not benefit either the cub or your body."

Praying would drain Yu Wanwan's energy and spirit, and if she wasn't careful, it might even take her life. Yu Wanwan couldn't withstand such torment right now.

Yu Wanwan gave a soft "hmm," but there was a hint of disappointment in her voice.

Now, even if she wanted to pray, it would be impossible. Ever since she last saw Zewu, every time she prayed, the image of the comatose person dying would appear in her mind, and she would involuntarily feel hatred towards the beastmen. Even though she tried to resist this emotion, her heart to save people was no longer as devout as before.

Thinking of this, Yu Wanwan pleaded, "Grandpa God of Time, could you please help me find Ze Wu? I want to see him."

"What are you doing seeing him?!" The God of Time was practically exploding with rage.

Ever since he learned that Zewu's plant essence was in Yu Wanwan's body, he had been intentionally or unintentionally avoiding Zewu. He never expected that this little female would want to deliver herself to his door.

"I have something to say to him, please help me," Yu Wanwan pleaded with him.

The God of Time thought for a moment, then sighed, "Alright, I'll speak to him for you, but I don't know if he'll agree."
