"Looks like you?" Jiang Si was so surprised she almost jumped up. She opened her mouth and cursed, "Who do you think you are? Who do you think you are? Who do you think you are? You think you look like me? You're just a peacock showing off your feathers, so self-deluded! You're so beautiful!"

So many handsome men and beautiful women with wings, good looks, good figures, Western charm, exotic mystery, and Eastern restraint—what do they have to do with him, this mixed-breed vampire? He's really just trying to make a good impression on himself.

Shu Xubai raised his hand, ready to hit her again.

Jiang Si retaliated even faster, jumping up and slapping the back of his head: "They say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years, I have two kids, so I'll be stupid for six years. If you hit me again, I'll be stupid for nine years straight."

"I won't do anything else, I'll just wear you down, I'll wear you down to death, you believe me?"

Shu Xubai slowly closed his raised hand, took a deep breath, and pointed at the huge plant pod: "Hey, big sister, big aunt, ancestors, can you open your eyes a little wider and take a look at those mutated little elves? Don't they look like me?"

"The shape of the eyes, nose, and cheeks... doesn't it look like me? Doesn't it look like me?"

Jiang Si calmed down a bit and didn't hold a grudge against him for being an older woman. Instead, she happily agreed to be his ancestor and pointed to the plant pod.

Shu Xubai nodded.

Jiang Si narrowed her eyes, gazing at the companion spirits flying around in the vast plant field.

The companion spirits wore the simplest gauze dresses and clothes, flapping their large, transparent wings, either flying around in their trees, or sitting in groups of three or five chatting under the trees, or practicing their attacks.

Others lay on their own trees, nestled among the branches, fast asleep. In short, every companion creature seemed to be very busy.

Each of them has a very delicate and beautiful appearance, with distinctive features and a deep, refined look, combined with the delicate beauty of the East. Their hair colors include all seven colors.

"They look a little bit alike, but not really!" Jiang Si really wanted to say, "Looks like nothing at all! They look like birds! How are they similar? If you have to say they look alike, the only thing they have in common is that they are both good-looking."

Jiang Dandan: "???"

They do look somewhat alike, huh?

So all these companion spirits are the children of this top-tier, immortal sea king?

Oh wait, wait a minute, something's not right! Different species have reproductive isolation!

Not everyone is as unique as his dog father; dogs are universally hated.

Shu Xubai, furious, put his hands on his hips. His pale face, which had looked like it had been dead for hundreds of years, turned red with anger: "You stinking zombie, are you trying to anger me to death?"

Jiang Si pouted: "I don't want to make you angry... Oh, I get it, besides werewolf blood, zombie blood, vampire blood, you also have elf blood."

"Old Bai!" Jiang Si exclaimed as if she had discovered a new continent. She stood on tiptoe, reached out and patted his shoulder, and said earnestly, "I always thought you were very mixed-race, but I never expected you to be this mixed-race."

"Hey, Lao Bai, do you think it's a good thing that little phoenix can't have children? Otherwise, if you had a child, a biological one, would it be a wolf with an elf's head, or a wolf's head and tail, or a zombie's head?"

Shu Xubai's chest heaved with anger. He told himself not to argue with a pregnant woman who was supposed to be "forgetful for three years after giving birth," and that he had to spoil her child even if it was through tears.

Shu Xubai took a deep breath and then exhaled a breath of stale air: "You're right, those bastards in the lab injected me with elf genes."

Upon hearing his words, Jiang Si's expression slowly darkened. "There really is. You were injected with elf genes. How come I didn't know?"

She jokingly tested it out, and to her surprise, it actually happened.

Damn those scumbags.

Shu Xubai's expression changed faster than flipping through a book. He reached out and grabbed Jiang Si's shoulder, pulling her into his arms. He said nonchalantly, "That's all ancient history. I've long forgotten about it. If I hadn't seen these companion spirits, I wouldn't have remembered it at all."

"By the way, the reason I told you that these companion spirits look like me is not because I mean anything else. It's because you ate my flesh and drank my blood, and there may be some samples of me in your body. Then your blood irrigated the spirit eye."

"The Spirit Eye is the only tree in the Abel Galaxy that has reached adulthood. It influences all the ginkgo trees around the Ginkgo Star. In other words, these sentient ginkgo trees, and the companion spirits they generate, are all influenced by the Spirit Eye."

"Then, through the blood you irrigated some of my samples, they appeared in these companion spirits. In other words, these companion spirits are my children!"

"Cough cough cough!" Jiang Si coughed: "These companion spirits are your children, more than 1,000 of them. You really know how to have children."

Shu Xubai grinned, but his smile was forced: "No problem, no problem. It's our child. You're the mother, and I'm the father. Neither of us can escape. Let's go. Just to be safe, let's go double-check."

Ginger shreds: "!!!!"

This is truly an absurd situation.

Okay, okay, confirm it, confirm it.

No matter how you confirm it, it's all related to you.

Shu Xubai was the first to walk into the plant pod. The companion spirits flying around the plant pod saw him, flew over, and circled around him, asking curiously, "Who are you? How did you end up here? You smell wonderful and you're good-looking too."

"Are you the master's friend? If you are the master's friend, then you are our friend. We will listen to the master and treat you as a friend."

"Your scent is so peculiar. Who exactly are you? Are you even human? And what is your relationship with our master?"

Shu Xubai glanced at the creatures fluttering around him, and parted his thin lips slightly, "Who is Aying?"

"I am!" A-Ying flew out of the tree pit of the Spirit Eye, stood in front of Shu Xubai, looked at him, and involuntarily showed respect: "May I ask what business you have with me?"

Shu Xubai looked him up and down, then walked around him once. "As expected of the companion spirit of the first tree, he is somewhat different from the other companion spirits."

Ah Ying frowned slightly: "You are...?"

“Don’t worry, Aying, he’s one of my men,” Jiang Si interjected at that moment, explaining, “The one who treated the Spirit Eye is called Shu Xubai!”

With just one sentence to heal the Spirit Eye, Ah Ying dispelled all her doubts. She gazed at him intently, as if he were the sunlight in the sky and the water on the ground.

"Lord Shu Xubai, the Spirit Eye can be saved..."

"It's hopeless. They've lived to be ten thousand years old, that's enough. What's the point of living?" Before A-Ying could finish speaking, Ling Hong interrupted him. He stood naked in the tree pit, like a stubborn little cabbage, his eyes full of arrogance and his face full of swagger.

Who is Shu Xubai? He's a hybrid vampire zombie who can subdue anyone who dares to challenge him, except for Jiang Si: "Oh, there's a child here too..."

"This child is..."

"No need to introduce yourself." Shu Xubai interrupted Jiang Si: "You go and change your clothes and get busy. I'll explore and tidy up here by myself. Don't worry, I can definitely find a way to delay the death of the Spirit Eye."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Si's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore."

Shu Xubai lifted his foot and walked towards Ling Hong without turning his head. He simply raised his hand and waved to Jiang Si: "Go, go!"

Jiang Si ran faster than a rabbit, not worried at all that Shu Xubai would kill his children here.

As Shu Xubai drew closer, Ling Hong felt increasingly cold, especially when she met his sinister gaze, as if she were being watched by a hunter.

Shu Xubai walked up to Ling Hong and stared at her, who was completely naked, his eyes shining as if he were looking at a real person.

Ling Hong felt a chill run down her spine from his gaze and said fiercely, "What are you looking at? What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a tree as majestic and imposing as mine before!"

Shu Xubai's gaze followed his words downwards, and he said with utmost sarcasm, "What good is being imposing and domineering? You've been standing here naked for so long, and not a single one of them has even glanced at you."

"No, nobody even glances at you, so you have nothing to brag about, understand, you little piece of trash?!"

Ling Hong: "???"

Damn it, who is this person?

Can't he speak?

Does he only feel comfortable when someone swears at him?

"How can you talk like that? You're just as annoying as that ginger shred..."

Before Ling Hong could finish speaking, Shu Xubai slapped him across the face, stopping him from speaking and drawing blood from the corner of his mouth.

Ling Hong was stunned. He had only casually said something bad about Jiang Si, and this man in front of him, who he couldn't even tell what kind of monster he was, actually hit him.

After finishing his slap, Shu Xubai waved his hand and said lightly, "Little sapling, it's none of your business whether she's likable or not. Who do you think you are, talking about her in front of me?"

"I myself am reluctant to speak ill of her, but you say it here. Believe it or not, even if she just stuck a willow branch in your body, I could cut your head off!"

Ling Hong is someone who bullies the weak and fears the strong. He advances when others retreat and retreats when others advance. He is shameless when he is thick-skinned and shameless when he is thin-skinned.

He was flexible and would do anything to benefit himself. Now, Shu Xubai's mental strength, physical strength, and everything else were superior to his. When he was beaten, he swallowed his anger and said, "I'm sorry, sir. Please forgive me. I will never dare to do it again."

Shu Xubai reached out and grabbed his neck, his fingernails slicing across his skin: "Little sapling, don't try to play the 'discretion is the better part of valor' game with me. Your little thieving eyes are too quick to see right through you. Don't treat others like fools, understand?"

Ling Hong's neck ached, and she couldn't move her body. She could only endure the pain: "I know, I know, please have mercy, please have mercy."

Shu Xubai smeared his hand with the blood from the man's neck, then withdrew it, put his index finger to his lips, stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked it, raising an eyebrow slightly: "Little sapling, you and that spirit eye are from the same root, the blood tastes good!"

Ling Hong forced a smile: "Thank you for your kind words. May I ask you to help me release the mental suppression and grant me my freedom?"

Shu Xubai slapped his bloodied hand onto him.

The powerful spiritual force suppressing Ling Hong was dispersed by him.

Ling Hong was free, and joy flashed in her eyes as she moved her stiff body.

Shu Xubai gazed at him like an old father.

After warming up, Ling Hong rolled her eyes, clasped her hands together, and said to Shu Xubai, "Thank you, sir. My name is Ling Hong. I have lived for over 2,000 years and will soon have a companion spirit."

"It's a pleasure to meet you. May I ask what your relationship is with Miss Jiang?"

Shu Xubai threw the question at him: "What do you think is my relationship with her?"

Ling Hong replied with a fawning expression, "I don't know, I can't possibly guess!"

Shu Xubai looked at him like he was a monkey: "If you can't guess, then don't guess. Put away your little schemes."

Ling Hong's heart skipped a beat: "I didn't scheme, you've misunderstood me. I'm free now, and I just want to stay here and go back to the ancient Earth in the Milky Way with Miss Jiang Jiang."

Shu Xubai suddenly realized and said, "Then come with me."

Ling Hong's eyes lit up, and she replied crisply, "Alright!"

Shu Xubai turned and walked away, not forgetting to call out to Aying.

The other companion spirits watched them leave the plant pod, exchanging glances and chattering amongst themselves: "Hey, hey, did you guys notice that Lord Shu Xubai is looking at Ling Hong like she's a complete idiot? Ling Hong seems completely oblivious."

"No, no, Lord Shu Xubai isn't looking at a complete idiot, he's looking at a monkey. Ling Hong is that self-important monkey that jumps around all day!"

"I quite like this Lord Shu Xubai. Although the scent he exudes is cold and bloody, I like it very much. It's like I've smelled it somewhere before."

"You feel the same way? I feel the same way too. It's like I've seen him somewhere before, like I've smelled him before. Even though I hate the smell of blood, I don't hate the smell of blood on him. It's so strange."

"What's so strange?" A tree that had transformed into a human stood behind them and asked, "Tell me about it?"

The sudden, unfamiliar voice startled the companion spirits. Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw a person they had never seen before, standing naked behind them.

Suddenly, a companion spirit screamed, "Ah, my tree, my tree, my tree has become a person, has become a person!"

A tree that had just transformed into a human opened its arms to the screaming companion spirit.

The screaming companion spirit instantly pounced into his arms, wrapped its arms around his neck, and was lifted into the air by the tree.

Jiang Si returned to her room, took a shower, stuffed the red robe into her spatial storage, and walked out of the bathroom wearing a tight-fitting, knee-length skirt that didn't accentuate her belly or waist. She supported her six-month pregnant belly with her hand and headed towards the ship's kitchen.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I smelled a delicious aroma, and my stomach rumbled loudly at that moment.

The two babies inside her seemed to be telling her that they were hungry and wanted to eat.

Jiang Si patted her belly and told the two babies inside, "I know, I know, what's the rush?"

The two babies in my belly have stopped moving, they're so timid!

When Jiang Si went in, she saw Agares wearing a white shirt, sleeves rolled up, and an apron, cooking with great seriousness.

Jiang Si raised her eyebrows slightly. A man with a good physique would look even better with an apron on.

Jiang Si walked over silently and leaned against the counter. Only then did Agares notice her: "Jiang Jiang, stay away from the stove, or the oil will splash on you!"

Jiang Si smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a little bit of oil."

Agares' heart skipped a beat when he saw her smile, overwhelmed with surprise, and he even forgot to pick up the pot: "Jiang Jiang, have you forgiven me?"

Jiang Si's smile grew even brighter. "What are you thinking? I came here to tell you that I've formed a contract with Lingyan. After I give birth, you'd better disappear from my world!"
