With Youyou by her side, her original consciousness stabilized considerably, and Fengrong also regained her senses, though she became even more clingy.
"Don't hug me so tightly, I can't look at the reports." Youyou pushed at the person who was clinging to her like a bear, but she couldn't move him at all, and he just hugged her even tighter.
"No!" Feng Rong didn't back away at all. Instead, taking advantage of his height, he rested his head on her shoulder and kissed her from time to time. His reason was ready: "I have a source within me. I feel uncomfortable if I'm far away."
"Why are you still feeling unwell? Wasn't it already stable?" Upon hearing this, Youyou immediately put down the report in her hand with concern, turned around, and quickly transferred a wisp of her power to him. "How are you? Are you feeling any better?"
Feng Rong's eyes darted around, her expression becoming even more sickly, while the hand holding her began to wander furtively. "Oh no, I feel terrible, I need you to lie down with me and kiss me, just like... last night."
Youyou was stunned, and a whole host of inappropriate images flashed through her mind. Her face flushed red, and she slapped his mischievous hand away. "What...what nonsense are you talking about? It's daytime work time now, don't think about such random things." Yesterday he was a shy little lamb, how come he's so wild today? Be innocent for once.
"Why not?" He frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with her refusal, and said with a hint of grievance but also with conviction, "I was in so much pain last night that I was already out of my mind, but you still did it to me... mmm mmm."
"Shut up!" Youyou covered his mouth with her hand, her face turning bright red. Don't make her sound like some kind of lecherous monster!
Although she was somewhat taking advantage of his vulnerability, who could resist when he was clinging to her and wouldn't let go, with that face of his? Even though he was already out of his mind, he was still so... tempting to commit a crime. Anyone would be unable to resist, right? Well, she was just temporarily blinded by his looks and made the mistake that all women in the world would make.
Yes, her lifelong reputation cannot be ruined; she is still the proper sect leader!
"Youyou, I feel unwell..." Having failed to achieve her goal, she put on an even more desperate act of feigning weakness.
Youyou wasn't buying it this time. Just as she was about to give him a lecture, she suddenly sensed something, stood up, and walked towards the door, saying, "Father Yuan is back."
Sure enough, the space at the doorway distorted for a moment, opening a demonic exit. Yuan Qi walked out, holding something in his hand.
"Father Yuan." She walked over quickly.
"Xiao You," Yuan Qi replied, then turned to look at Feng Rong, who had regained consciousness, and handed her the bottle in his hand. "Your Xuanchi water."
Feng Rong didn't stand on ceremony and accepted it directly. The next moment, a continuous stream of demonic energy flew out of the bottle, and in less than half a moment, it had completely returned to Feng Rong's body. That was originally his overflowing power, and now it was just being withdrawn.
Sure enough, with these magical sources, his complexion improved considerably. Although his consciousness had stabilized before, he still looked very weak and could only rely on Youyou to occasionally transfer some power to him for support. Now, however, he was clearly much healthier, as if he had finally replenished his nutrition, like a normal... pregnant man?
Yuan Qi took his pulse and examined him carefully before saying, "His original consciousness is complete, but it needs a body to reside in..." His gaze involuntarily shifted downwards, glancing at the man's stomach. A complicated expression appeared on his face as he coughed and said, "Cough... I guess it will only be able to completely detach itself from Feng Rong once it has a body."
You You was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously said, "You mean that it's not enough for his consciousness to be complete, Feng Rong also needs to help him solidify his body."
“That’s right.” Yuan Qi nodded.
"What!" As soon as the words were spoken, not only You You, but also Feng Rong's face darkened instantly. She bristled and said angrily, "I will not help it condense any body! You hurry up and find a way to get it out."
"Calm down, calm down!" Youyou quickly pulled her back. "You're so agitated, be careful not to hurt your baby... Ugh! I mean, be careful not to make your original consciousness unstable again."
Feng Rong was furious, but she still managed to suppress her anger.
"Father Yuan, is there really no other way?" You You asked Yuan Qi again.
“Now that the original consciousness has been tainted by Feng Rong’s aura, having him condense the body is the best way,” Yuan Qi explained in a deep voice. “Unless there is something else that can nurture a divine body and is connected to the power of the Rong Feng Demon God, becoming one with the divine, there is no other way!”
Then there's no hope.
The three of them fell silent at the same time.
You You sighed, glanced at Feng Rong again, and her gaze involuntarily settled on his stomach. She couldn't help but ask, "I... have another question?"
"What?"
"Um..." she asked after a moment, "If it really is Feng Rongsheng... then where will the child come from?"
Yuan Qi: "..."
Feng Rong: "..."
After a while...
"Play! Be excellent!"
"No, after all, men and women have different physical structures. I was just curious."
"Xiao You need not worry. The Demon God is the supreme god of the world and has no gender. Changing gender is just a matter of a thought."
"Yuan! Qi!"
"How about... you change your appearance temporarily?"
"Shut up! I'm not a pervert like you who can switch between male and female. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll remove it in a heartbeat, you believe me?"
"Don't be impulsive!"
"The child is the most important thing!"
"..."
——————
In the end, they came up with a way to prevent Feng Rong from actually carrying a child for ten months and giving birth to the new main god. After all, transforming into a woman halfway through life and having a child on short notice is indeed a bit shocking.
The specific solution was conceived by the single phoenixes of the Phoenix Clan. There really is something in this world that can nurture a divine body and is related to demonic energy, and it is right here in the True Evolution Sect, namely the eggshell of the Thunder Phoenix of the Phoenix Clan.
Long Ting planted a demonic seed inside the Thunder Phoenix's egg, causing one of the phoenixes to become possessed by a demon, while the other was devoured by the seed and died inside the egg. Normally, after a phoenix hatches, the eggshell becomes nourishment for its growth, eventually being absorbed and disappearing by the newborn phoenix. However, the last Thunder Phoenix had already become possessed by a demon, so it naturally couldn't absorb the eggshell formed from divine power.
Although the Demon Phoenix is now dead, it was once a member of the Thunder Phoenix royal family, so the Phoenix clan has been collecting the eggshells, especially the one that the Demon Phoenix used as nourishment, whose eggshell is basically intact.
If the eggshell is repaired and its original consciousness is transferred, a divine body can naturally be born. Moreover, since a demonic seed was originally planted inside, and there are remnants of demonic energy, Feng Rong, being a demon god, can directly transfer her power through demonic energy to nurture the consciousness within. Given time, it can condense into a new body. However, when she is born, she is destined to descend into the world in the form of a phoenix.
Youyou thought about Feng Rong's current prototype, and thought, "Hmm, he looks more like a mother and son... oh no, a father and son!"
