Chapter 396 is your child

"Xiao Luo, long time no see."

The clouds in the sky seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind. Yan walked up to her, his tall and graceful figure looking cold and elegant. His dark eyes reflected the clear and light moonlight, and seemed to be filled with a hint of uneasiness.

Sang Luo was wearing a loose lotus pink dress today, which was fresh and elegant, yet exuded a hint of charm and gentleness, captivating everyone.

She looked up at Yan, her lips curled into a faint smile, "Lord God asked me to meet him in the middle of the night, but what's the matter? If you didn't know, you would think he missed me."

"I missed you." He whispered.

Sang Luo was stunned.

Yan took out a brocade wooden box and handed it to her. "I was at fault for what happened back then. This is what I promised you. This lunchbox is my apology."

When Sang Luo opened the box, he saw a three-colored glowing magic lotus fruit, emitting a rich fragrance. This lotus fruit can cure the disease of incomplete development of the nucleus of the little spider.

She hadn't expected that Yan had taken her casual remark to heart. For a moment, she felt unpredictable, not knowing how to face him. "...Thank you."

Yan shook his head. "No need to thank me. I don't like to break my promise."

"Having said that, the God really did me a big favor. I will never forget this great kindness. All the unpleasantness before can be written off and just pretend that it never happened, okay? If you need help in the future, you can always come to me~" Sang Luo adjusted his mood and spoke in a cheerful tone.

"I don't need you to help me with anything."

Well... that's true. The ancient beast's cultivation level is unfathomable, and she really couldn't think of how she could help him at the moment. It was just a flattery for the sake of face.

"If there is nothing else, Lord God, I will leave first."

"You, don't you have anything else to say to me?"

Sang Luo paused and said, "No."

“…”

Yan watched her turn and leave without moving at all.

Just when Sang Luo's figure was about to disappear in the woods, Yan rushed forward and hugged her tightly from behind.

His chin rested on her head, and his slightly hurried voice fell into her ears, his voice dry and hoarse, "I was planning to take out that old dress and burn it, but I didn't expect you to see it..."

"I used a spell to seal the underground palace, closing the door forever, sealing everything in the past there as a farewell."

"Xiao Luo, I admit that I mistook you for the princess of the Fire Fox Clan the first time. But later, I let you stay in Qingqiu Mansion and spend time with me day and night. It wasn't because I wanted to use you as a substitute, but because I wanted to slowly accept you."

"I want to be with you."

Yan had experienced a great struggle before, blaming himself for not being able to control his body and mind. On the one hand, he felt pain because he thought he had betrayed his deceased fiancée, but on the other hand, he could not control the desire to get close to Sang Luo, possess her, and developed a different kind of desire for her.

"I promised to keep vigil for Princess Ji Wan for a hundred thousand years. A hundred thousand years have passed, and I haven't broken my promise. I am also sincere to you."

Sang Luo turned to look at him and asked seriously, "Have you really let go of that Fire Fox Princess?"

"I...she left a long time ago, and I will never be able to wait for her to come back." Yan held one of her hands and placed it on his face, "But I don't want to regret it again."

"Regret again?" Sang Luo wondered.

A trace of bewilderment flashed across Yan's eyes. He shook his head, as if mocking himself. "One hundred thousand years is too long. For me, half a lifetime has passed. Princess Ji Wan, her appearance is becoming increasingly blurred to me."

"Sometimes, I wonder if everything I experienced with her actually happened, or if it was just something I imagined, filling in the blanks bit by bit as I recollected her later. Could everything I remember about her, those minute details of our time together, be wrong? I have no way of knowing."

"Those paintings I drew with my own hands were proof that I loved her, but now they have become increasingly pale and empty..."

"She is an obsession that I can't let go of, but I can't remember where the obsession came from..."

Sang Luo listened to him quietly and seriously as he said many things.

These were words Yan had never said to her before.

It was not until this moment that Sang Luo felt that she was slowly walking into his dusty heart.

"I haven't had a dream in a long time. Ever since you left, you've been in my dreams... Xiao Luo'er, I've changed my mind. I'm a very heartless man, right?"

In those scrolls, Yan's love for Princess Ji Wan was as strong as fire, but this love was not eternal. After only 100,000 years, he almost forgot what she looked like. The memory faded with time, and even his feelings for her were only left with a trace of regretful obsession.

Sang Luo shook his head, "Lord God is a very sentimental person."

She simply couldn't imagine how Yan had managed to survive all these vicissitudes of life over the past hundred thousand years. Even though his memory would eventually fade, he had done well enough to preserve all the relics left by the Fire Fox Princess intact.

What she hated was only Yan's behavior of treating her as a substitute, but she admired and respected his love for her, and she was also envious of the legendary Princess Ji Wan.

After her death, someone kept vigil and offered sacrifices to her for a hundred thousand years, remaining chaste until her death. Who in this world could do that?

She asked herself if she could do it.

Fei Yuan and the others might not be able to do it.

Sang Luo raised her head and kissed him on the lips.

Yan's dark eyes instantly turned into vertical pupils. He tightly wrapped his arms around her waist and lowered his head to deepen his gaze...

The two of them gradually became short of breath.

Sang Luo's face became rosy and charming. She pulled one of his slender hands and placed it on her lower abdomen.

The loose robe concealed the rise and fall of her abdomen, but it was easy to feel it if you reached out your hand.

"I'm pregnant, it's yours."

Yan's body trembled slightly, and his breathing slowed down. "I know."

"When did you find out?"

"I sensed it after returning from heaven." He let go of her and reverently held her face in his hands, his eyes filled with gratitude and affection. "I want to thank you, Luoluo, for bringing me this precious offspring."

"I was afraid you wouldn't want this child."

He suddenly hugged her tightly again, "No!"

He likes children very much.

Yan picked up Sang Luo by the waist, teleported back to the room, and gently placed her on the bed.

"Let me give it to you, okay?"

Sang Luo met his gentle gaze and nodded shyly.

The bed curtains fell, and the two figures gradually merged into one, making love with each other and making charming sounds...

In the morning, the early morning sunlight poured in through the window. When Sang Luo woke up, she found that Yan was gone.

There was some cold food on the table.

She got up, dressed, and went to the courtyard, but Yan was nowhere to be found. She went to the kitchen, but he was nowhere to be found either.

A sense of uneasiness rose in my heart.

Fei Yuan appeared and took Sang Luo's hand, "Luo'er, come back to Fenghuang Palace with me."
