Chapter 46 The Secret of the Teng Snake Clan
Kaisar placed the two eggs into the space and nourished them with his soul. He walked to the bedside, poured her a glass of milk and handed it to her. "Have you thought of a name?"
Sang Luo, "Uh..." Could she say that she was pregnant and her mind was not working properly? She simply pushed the stall aside and said, "You think about it."
"Xun Mo, Bai Yu, what do you think?"
Sang Luo drank the milk in one gulp. "It sounds nice. Let's use this. I'll think of a nickname for them. They haven't hatched yet, so I don't know what they look like. I'll give them a nickname after they hatch."
Caesar reached out and wiped her mouth, and naturally said yes.
Sang Luo deliberately stretched out her foot and playfully hooked his belt, "I don't think I've ever heard you mention your last name."
"The name Kaisar was given to me by the old Beast King. It's just a surname, not a given name. But I'm an orc from the Eastern Continent, so this name... probably isn't my real name." He pinched her little foot, rubbed it against his chest, and said, "When the child is born, he'll take your surname."
"Okay~" Sang Luo didn't dwell on this question too much. She was more concerned about something else and looked at him worriedly, "What exactly is this broken blood you mentioned? Is there any way to restore it?"
"I didn't know anything about this before. My memories of bloodline inheritance were sealed by another force. It wasn't until after you gave birth that I awakened to this part of the inherited memory."
Kaisar's voice was slightly deep and cold, "In the Teng Snake clan, every generation is born with twins."
"Each twin carries half of the incomplete Teng Snake bloodline. Only by devouring the other's bloodline can they obtain the complete Teng Snake bloodline inheritance."
Sang Luo was startled and quickly sat up, "Then our child..."
"Don't worry, they're fine."
Kaisar quickly took her hand and placed it against his incredibly handsome and elegant face, sighing with emotion, "Sangsang is truly amazing. Both of her puppies are complete, pure-blooded offspring. They won't need to fight each other in the future; they'll inherit the Teng Snake clan's legacy from birth."
"What about you? Have you seen the other twin? Will he attack you?"
"I haven't seen him, and he probably hasn't seen me either. We've been separated since childhood. If he really wanted to do something, he would have done it long ago. I'm afraid he would be dead long ago."
Before Caesar's inherited memory awakened, he had no idea about this matter, so he didn't have much pursuit for the complete Teng Snake bloodline. As long as he could protect her safely, it was enough.
He quickly passed over the topic and asked with a smile, "I heard from Xiaobai that you've been craving food again these days. You must have been tired of the cooking in the kitchen. How about I take you out to eat?"
"Great! The drunken shrimp at Wanfulou last time was quite delicious..."
Sang Luo has been lying in the house every day for the past two months, worried about the few pounds of fat on his belly, and has long wanted to go out for a walk.
Caesar changed her into some light clothes and took her out to play.
Seeing that he didn't care much, Sang Luo put the matter behind her.
Beast King Palace.
Urgali Aarons was furious.
He summoned Caesar several times, but he never came, making excuses for himself.
"Look! I gave him face, and he gave me face?!"
Duotu, "Father, calm down. He just had a child and his partner still needs to be taken care of. Perhaps he really can't spare the time."
"Oh, a male beast with offspring is truly difficult to control. Caesar is no longer as obedient as he was in childhood... If we keep him around, he'll be a nuisance sooner or later!"
"Your Majesty the Beast King, there is an envoy seeking to see you." The guard outside reported.
Ergali Yalans waved his hand and let Duotu go down first.
A tall and slender figure walked into the hall. He was wearing a dark green robe and a black iron devil mask.
He placed his right hand on his chest and saluted, "I pay my respects to His Majesty the Beast King."
The voice was old and hoarse, but the hands were exceptionally slender and white, with beautiful distinct joints.
There is a very light red mole on the back of my right hand.
For a moment, Ergali Yalans couldn't quite fathom this man's realm. He narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Why have you come all the way to the Empire?"
"I would like to offer a plan to relieve your majesty's worries."
…
Sang Luo had just given birth and needed someone to take care of her during the confinement period, so Caesar called back some of the old beast servants he had dismissed.
All aspects are taken care of thoughtfully.
But in recent days, he seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and I haven't seen him once a day.
She asked Leon, who also hesitated, "My lord may be very busy recently. The old Beast King called him several times a few days ago, but he always declined. He has to go to the palace to meet him several times."
Sang Luo felt an indescribable sense of loss.
During the time when she was pregnant and had just given birth, Caesar wanted to stick to her all day and all night, taking care of her in every detail. No matter how busy he was during that time, it was impossible for him to disappear for several days.
After meeting her a few times, his attitude towards her became much colder. He would leave after just a few words.
At night, there was no one around him. Sang Luo touched the cold quilt beside him. He had not slept well in the past few days.
When Sang Luo woke up in the middle of the night, he saw a person standing upright in front of the bed and was almost scared.
"Why are you standing at the head of my bed so late at night?"
Kaisar looked at her quietly for an unknown amount of time. Seeing Sang Luo breathing heavily and looking very uneasy, he asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"
"I was scared by you!"
“…”
Sang Luo looked at his handsome and cool face, and her throat suddenly felt dry. "I'm a little thirsty."
Kesar poured her a glass of water.
Sang Luo took the water and drank it, lowering his head and saying nothing.
Caesar had no intention of speaking, and the two of them just remained silent. Sang Luo could feel the man's gaze always on her. At first glance, it seemed no different from before, but Sang Luo believed in her sixth sense - Caesar's mood was extremely cold, almost indifferent, and when he looked at her, there seemed to be a strange scrutiny and doubt in his eyes.
Sang Luo stood up, hugged his strong waist, and said in a sweet voice, "Won't you accompany me tonight?"
Kaisar took her hand and let go, "Some other time."
“…”
"I still have some things to take care of over there. If you're okay, I'll leave first."
He really left. His figure disappeared in an instant.
Sang Luo's eyes widened, and she felt as if struck by lightning. Her chest felt stuffy and she could hardly breathe. She was sure that this man had really changed his mind!
…What went wrong?
After giving birth to a child, she turned her back on me???
These king beasts only recognize their offspring, right?!
Sang Luo always thought that Kaisar was different from Duotu. At least he had feelings for her. She never expected that in his eyes, she was just a tool for bearing children...
Sang Luo was so angry that he even forgot to take his coat. He ran outside to get some fresh air and his mind quickly calmed down.
If Caesar really changed his mind, she would have no reason to stay any longer.
Sang Luo did not forget her real purpose. She needed to obtain more power from the king beasts. It was impossible for Caesar to be her only beast husband.
He had kept her up for too long.
Part ways amicably.
This child is considered as repayment for the favor he has done for me over this period of time.
Sang Luo lowered her head, her long eyelashes casting shadows under her eyes, she was calm and rational, almost mean.
After clearing her mind completely, Sang Luo went back to her room to rest. She didn't notice that after she left, Kaiser appeared outside the door, watching the woman leave, with a trace of painful confusion in his eyes.
The controversy surrounding the genetic female quickly faded. Sang Luo had Leon investigate, and the Beast King had canceled the selection of genetic females this year. Xiaobai had been staying at the manor under the guise of a maid, avoiding the family's search. During Sang Luo's confinement, she had been her personal caregiver, and she was very fond of this adorable little rabbit.
One day, after she finished breakfast, Xiaobai walked in and said, "Madam, I'm leaving the capital, and I came to say goodbye to you today! Thank you for your care during this time!"
Sang Luo put down his chopsticks and looked at her. "Where are you going? Have you found a place to stay? If you need any help, just ask."
Xiaobai hates her family so much that she absolutely cannot go back. However, as a female rabbit beast, she does not have strong hunting abilities, so it will be very difficult for her to survive if she goes out to fight.
"I have low fertility, and I don't think any male would be willing to raise me. I plan to leave the imperial capital and open a snack shop in a nearby town to do business!"
"You have ambition. You are really good at cooking. I wanted to keep you."
"Hey, if I go bankrupt, I'll come back!"
"Haha, I can't wish you bankruptcy. I wish you to open one... no, many, many food stores, and open a chain of stores all over the empire. My business is getting more and more prosperous!" Sang Luo said with a smile, "Come back when you have time. I will miss you."
"Thank you for your kind words, Madam. If I become rich in the future, you will be my honored guest and can eat as much as you want in the restaurant!"
As they chatted and laughed, it was time to say goodbye. Xiaobai reluctantly took out two packages and said to Sang Luo and Leon, "I really appreciate Madam and Brother Bao taking care of you these days. I prepared some small gifts before I leave. They are all my thoughts. I hope you don't mind."
Leon took the package, glanced at her, and touched his neck, “Only invite Madam, why don’t you invite me when your store opens?”
"Please, please, please, of course you must!"
He then smiled and said, "When the time comes, remember to send me the location. I'll come find you when I'm free."
Xiaobai agreed immediately and asked Leon to go out first. He looked at Sang Luo and hesitated to speak. "Madam, I have one more thing I want to tell you. I didn't want to tell you because I was afraid you would be angry, but I think it's better for you to know..."
"What is it? You can tell me."
"Well, I've been going out a lot lately, and I'm looking for some shops in a good location and at a good price."
"I once saw Lord Caesar interacting with other noblewomen."
Xiaobai secretly glanced at Sang Luo's expression. Seeing that she was not angry, he continued, "I asked Leon about it. It seems that the noblewoman and you have been childhood sweethearts since you gave birth. You have just given birth, and you have been away from home all day. Madam, you should keep a close eye on her. I also hope... but I was wrong..."
Sang Luo was unexpectedly calm. "If he really wants to find it, then go ahead and find it. I can't stop him."
"I have nothing to do with her. Her brother broke the military law, and she wanted to plead for her brother, so she came to me, but I didn't agree." Caesar suddenly appeared and frowned.
Sang Luo ignored him and picked up a piece of meat and vegetable with chopsticks to eat.
Seeing that something was wrong, Xiaobai quickly slipped away.
Kaisar's eyes fell on her, his lips pursed into a line, his voice cold, "Do you think I would be that kind of fickle male?"
"It's hard to say. Anyway, the King Beast is noble. Even if he already has a partner, it doesn't matter if he has more lovers."
"...You gave birth to a pure-blooded offspring for me. I can't possibly look for another female."
"Oh, it's all for the sake of offspring. After you have offspring, I'll be useless. Why would you even consider my feelings? No wonder you haven't been home lately. I'm starting to wonder if you've gotten another female pregnant."
"Sang Luo!" He stepped forward and tried to hold her hand.
But she pushed him away.
Sang Luo's suppressed emotions erupted, "Your heart is obviously not with me anymore. I can feel it. If you feel that you no longer need me after you get the child, then tell me as soon as possible. Let's break up as soon as possible and don't drag it out here."
She was also moved. Otherwise, she wouldn't have given birth to a child for him.
It would be a lie for her to say she wasn't angry.
Caesar was stunned by her yell.
Sang Luo stared at him, his chest heaving. "It's not like I must have you."
At worst, she could go find Lan Cang. Lan Cang's talent was slightly inferior to Wang Shou's, but he really liked her, unlike Caesar, who had been eyeing the power in her body from the beginning.
Although Duotu also regarded her as a tool for having children, he was beautiful and rich, and only recognized blood. If she gave him a pure-blooded offspring to raise, he would never get involved with other females.
No matter how you look at it, it's stronger than this snake beast!
Sang Luo calmed down and said, "Just tell me now that you don't want to be with me anymore, and I'll leave right now."
"No! You can't leave me!"
Caesar hugged her tightly, his breathing was extremely tense and suppressed, and his heart was extremely panicked. At this moment, he really had a fear of losing her.
Sang Luo then felt that he had returned, and her nose couldn't help but feel sore, "But, after having a child, your mind is no longer with me."
"The child comes second, you come first."
"What about you?" She burst into laughter.
"After you two." He buried his head in her neck and said in a muffled voice.
"Then why have you been so hot and cold towards me these past few days? I feel like you don't care about me at all."
"...It's not because of the child." Kaiser turned her around, cupped her face in his hands, and gently wiped away the tears. He felt extremely distressed. "I, I don't know how to say this. I've been feeling down lately and a little out of sorts."
He was not unaware that he had been somewhat cold and distant towards her in the past few days, and he also felt very strange about it. Caesar wanted to find out what went wrong.
He would go to her room every night and stay there all night, wanting to take care of her and accompany her, but he had no desire to get closer to her.
When she took the initiative to touch him, another voice in his heart called out - push her away.
Caesar was in great pain and wanted to cut off this inexplicable emotion, but he could not find the source.
but,
"Sangsang, I really love you and don't want to lose you."
He could be sure that his heart was always with her.
The moment she said she wanted to break up, he was so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.
Seeing his pained expression, Sang Luo slowly calmed down. It was indeed not after she gave birth that Kaisar's attitude suddenly changed. It had only been in the past two days, and it seemed that it was only since he came back from the Beast King Palace...
"Is it because you've been too tired from hatching lately?"
"If you're not in a hurry, I can slow down the incubation time." Caesar said, lowering his head and kissing her lips. The burning love broke through the layer of fog that was covering it. The cage opened, and the emotion that should have belonged to him seemed to be returning to its place little by little.
While kissing, they started to touch each other.
Sang Luo quickly pushed him away, pouting, "I just gave birth, I don't want to get pregnant again so soon."
Caesar was reluctant to let her go, so he stopped and hugged her and kissed her gently to make up for the past few days.
Sang Luo put her hands through his neck, and suddenly her heart moved. She gathered a ball of light energy at her fingertips and lifted up his silky black hair.
There was a scarlet rune on his neck!
