The situation was not good; there was a difficult labor, bleeding, and the baby wouldn't come out. This situation made the midwife break out in a cold sweat, and because of Du Ruo's physical limitations, she was also unable to use forceful methods to induce labor.
Why not have a cesarean section?
Dao Chengyi looked at the countless basins of water that had been changed and at Du Ruo, whose face was as white as paper. He spoke in a cold voice, and everyone knelt on the ground as soon as he spoke. The midwife and the doctor kowtowed repeatedly.
"It was...it was me who told them to do this...Sir, please don't blame them..."
Du Ruo, who was nearly unconscious due to blood loss, suddenly woke up after hearing Dao Chengyi's words. She managed to speak, but her throat was hoarse and her voice was broken and intermittent, like a broken bellows.
"You may leave, I will take care of it."
The others immediately went out as if they had been granted a great edict. Dao Cheng used his palm to emit green wood-based vitality to stabilize Du Ruo's body.
Then, he used the Medicine Master Gu to sense the condition of the fetus. He had not tampered with Du Ruo's fetus, but Dao Chengyi had crippled his body in order to deal with the investigations of those outsiders, which led to the accidental death of the fetuses in those births of Du Ruo.
The following times...
Dao Chengyi knew that this baby had a very strong will to live and would definitely be a very good child if born.
Unfortunately, Dao Chengyi has no shortage of children now, but he will not abandon him. The ghost infant beside him crawled to Dao Chengyi's side, and its body changed, showing various strange and beast-like characteristics.
Then they laughed and went toward the tenacious fetus, which was trapped in sharp claws. At that moment, the baby cried out. As the eighth infant, born from Dao Chengyi's various resources, his innate soul was exceptionally strong.
Du Ruo opened her eyes at the sound of the crying. She stroked her belly with one hand and gripped Dao Chengyi's hand tightly with the other.
"Sir! Child! I see the child crying!"
"Something's there! Something's trying to kill him! Master! Help me..."
Du Ruo pleaded, her cries laced with tears that stained the fabric with blood. Dao Chengyi gently stroked her, offering words of comfort. The green light emanating from his hand intensified, the life force of the infant growing ever stronger.
But the sound grew fainter and fainter until the seven ghost infants completely pulled out their brothers, and then an eighth ghost infant, even larger than before, appeared.
Dao Cheng also had another stillborn fetus in his hand. It had a complete form, but it was just like an empty shell, with no breath left.
"Child...child..."
Eight ghost infants responded to their mother's call and clung to her side: four twins, three who had died young, and the one who had just appeared.
One more person is needed. If we calculate the time, it will be just in time for the scheduled performance.
Dao Cheng lowered his eyes, his expression deep.
