Chapter 143 Another Snake Egg
Luan Zhi knelt beside Quan Xiu as usual, grinding the ink slowly.
After half an incense stick of time, she could no longer suppress her desire. One of her soft and slender hands slowly reached for a certain part of his lower body, and she said in a sweet and eager voice, "Sir~ Luanzhi wants to bear a biological child for you. Please give it to me."
Quan Xiu grabbed her wrist and said calmly, "Don't forget your identity."
Luan Zhi bit her lip and twisted her hungry body slightly. Her body and mind felt as if they were on fire. "Sir, you haven't touched me since you disappeared for several months and came back. Have you lost interest in my body..." She could easily ignite his passion in the past.
Quan Xiu shook her off, his eyes cold, "You overestimate yourself. With your talent, you are not qualified to bear my child."
Luan Zhi fell to the ground in a panic. She saw a flash of murderous intent in the man's eyes, and it was like a bucket of cold water falling from her head. The desire in her body disappeared instantly. "I'm sorry, Master Quan Xiu! I shouldn't have overstepped my bounds. I will take good care of the little prince and be a good mother to him."
"You are no longer useful. You will leave the palace tomorrow."
"What?" Luan Zhi was stunned. "The little prince has found a new 'mother'. Is it the new female who came during the day?"
Quan Xiu stopped looking at her and continued to correct the documents in his hand. "Who gave you the sachet?"
Before, Xiao Qi liked to have Luan Zhi take care of her personally, and Quan Xiu didn't take it seriously. To him, Luan Zhi was no different from other servants. If his son really liked her as a beast mother, he could marry her and keep her in the mansion. But when he heard what Xiao Qi said last time, he felt something was wrong. After sending people to investigate thoroughly, he found clues.
Luan Zhi's face turned pale as she forced a smile. "What kind of sachet are you talking about, sir? I love incense, and when I go out, I always wear a few sachets. They're all ordinary sachets I bought when I went out, or given to me by friends..."
"I don't like wasting time with dead people."
Luan Zhi's legs suddenly went limp. "Master, please spare my life. I have nothing. This sachet was... given to me by the old Beast King!"
"Take it out."
Luan Zhi quickly handed over the sachet hidden around her waist.
After Quan Xiu saw the ingredients inside, a violent look flashed across his eyes. This was a psychedelic spiritual herb, snake herb, which had a strong allure for snake orcs, especially young snake cubs. Prolonged exposure could even lead to addiction. Using this to control it in the future was not a bad idea.
The old beast king of the Teng Snake Clan was suspicious by nature and had never trusted his adopted son Quan Xiu. The last time he blocked a sword for him in the forbidden area, he finally let down his guard against this adopted son.
Who would have thought that the old Beast King had such a hidden trick up his sleeve, wanting to completely control him through his offspring!
Quan Xiu threw the sachet into the brazier and burned it directly.
Luan Zhi's face was as pale as paper.
"Get out."
…
midnight.
After Quan Xiu finished reading the documents, he appeared in front of the bed.
Looking at Sang Luo sleeping soundly on the bed, she was still wearing her daytime clothes, slightly curled up, and not sleeping very peacefully. Half of the quilt had fallen to the ground, covering her belly.
Xiao Qi was released from the cage and curled up on her chest, sleeping soundly. It was not usually so peaceful.
These two people... really look like mother and son.
A faint smile appeared on Quan Xiu's lips, but he didn't even notice it.
He sent someone to investigate her background.
Sang Luo...
This name seems familiar...
When he bit her lightly with his lips and teeth, his soul seemed to ripple slightly, and when he saw her, his heart was always difficult to remain calm.
The last time she called him, Caesar...
Is this his old name?
When he woke up from the darkness, he had no memory of the past. There were only two offspring in the space who were related to him by blood, indicating that he had had a relationship with a female. Could this female be her?
Is she a memory he has lost?
The man sat by the bed and covered Sang Luo and Xiao She with the quilt. Although he had no memory of her, his body responded instinctively with pleasure.
"Hmm..." Sang Luo frowned and hummed softly, showing signs of waking up.
He hurried away again.
On the other side, Luan Zhi was frightened the whole night after coming out of the study.
At that moment, Quan Xiu really wanted to kill her.
But as an insider, she had a mark planted by the old Beast King on her body. Once she died, the old Beast King would be able to sense it immediately. That's how she escaped and barely kept her life.
But there's no guarantee how long she can survive.
I can't stay in the palace any longer.
Before leaving, Luan Zhi didn't want to let Sang Luo, who had ruined her plan, have an easy time.
Early the next morning, Luan Zhi sent her trusted servant to inform Sang Luo that Lord Quan Xiu had something to ask in the cold cave in the underground palace and asked her to come over to see him.
The male servant was surprised, "That place is not..."
The servants who have stayed in the palace for a long time all know that there is a cold cave underground under the palace. No one is allowed to enter that place except Lord Quan Xiu. No outsider who has entered has ever come out alive. It is called a forbidden area.
Sang Luo was taking Xiao Qi to bask in the sun in the courtyard.
Xiao Qi felt drowsy from the sun and curled up lazily in a ball, with the tip of her tail resting on her head to block out the overly glaring light.
The cubs are the most sleepy.
Sang Luo sent Xiao Qi back to the house. As soon as she turned around and went out, an orc came to report that Lord Quan Xiu wanted to see her for something.
Sang Luo thought Quan Xiu had something important to discuss with her, so she didn't ask any more questions and followed him to the backyard.
…
Cold cave in the underground palace.
The temperature here is not low. It looks like an ice pool condensed from ice, but when you go over there, you will find that it is filled with crystal cores. The number is huge and shocking.
In the center of the "ice pool", there is a platform with a slight depression in the middle. In the depression there is an animal egg half the size of a head, with a circle of dark purple lines on the eggshell.
The lines are light gray, and there is almost no energy fluctuation.
There was some damage on the top of the egg.
Quan Xiu stood in front of the stone platform, looking at the white egg that had not hatched yet, feeling depressed.
Most of the beast crystals he had obtained over the years had been used to incubate this beast egg. The beast egg hadn't hatched yet, and the vitality within it was growing weaker and weaker...
When he woke up more than a year ago, he was accompanied by only these two children.
He didn't know what had happened before, but both children were in poor condition. Xiao Qi had hatched when he woke up, but it was obviously stimulated and prematurely born. He fell into a coma and was once weak and dying. He spent countless spiritual power and energy to bring it back to life. It just woke up from a deep sleep half a year ago. There were no problems with its body afterwards, and it grew up very healthy.
Only this damaged white egg has not yet hatched.
He had an obsession in his heart and wanted to hatch it out as soon as possible and show it to someone.
If the baby is stillborn, she will be sad.
But he no longer felt any life in this egg...
