Before the little dragons could even catch their breath, they heard a clattering sound.
They then saw a hidden door slowly open behind the original wall, and a string of large dragons emerged from it.
The young dragons were dumbfounded, almost jumping up and down. "Elders, what are you all doing here?"
There was even a secret room; this was something they hadn't expected.
However, they were unaware of the mechanisms here.
The elders chuckled awkwardly, ignoring the dragons' questions, and rushed towards Qifei.
The elder rubbed his hands together, his face full of anticipation. "Qifei, are you saying you're pregnant, and with more than one child?"
If they hadn't heard this news, they wouldn't have panicked.
The original plan was to wait until they couldn't stand it anymore and left before coming out.
"Yes." Qifei didn't try to hide it; instead, she nodded readily.
This is indeed the truth. For her, taking this opportunity to bring the matter to light also allows her to invite her clansmen to attend the Dao Couple Ceremony.
The elders were overjoyed and surrounded Qifei in a circle. "It really is pregnant. Come, let me feel it."
An elder stretched out a claw, which was slapped away by another person with a "smack".
"What do you mean by touching it? What if you hurt it?" Another elder's face lit up. "Qifei, are you feeling unwell?"
"Go away, get out of here. Didn't you just say there were several?"
That's what they're really focusing on.
The dragon race has always had a relatively low fertility rate, so if Qifei is pregnant with several babies at once, they will be the precious treasures of the dragon race.
but……
The elders sized up Shura. Hmm, he was just an ordinary human. So, the child that Qifei gave birth to should be a dragon.
"Elders, I really want to invite you to my and my master's Daoist ceremony."
Qifei and everyone else asked the question out of curiosity before finally speaking.
“My master said that I am already pregnant, so I must be recognized no matter what.”
Besides, if I were to have a baby, it wouldn't be right for the child to not have a father.
"What's there to be afraid of if you don't have a father? We're here for you, aren't we?" The First Elder waved his hand. "As long as you are born, the clan can definitely afford to raise you."
Qi Fei secretly saw that Xiu Luo's face had darkened and couldn't help but laugh, "That's still different. After all, he's the father of my child, and I'll definitely be living with Master from now on."
"What? Qifei, you're pregnant and you're not going back to the Dragon Clan's territory? You're still staying outside?" The First Elder glared at him, his beard bristling.
"If Master hadn't opened the barrier today, I wouldn't have been able to get in, let alone give birth to my child in the Dragon Clan." Qi Fei blinked innocently.
If she doesn't return to the Dragon Clan's territory, won't she still give birth outside?
These words made the dragon elders a little embarrassed. "It's not that you little dragons were lazy before."
If we don't drive you out, we worry that when we die, you won't have accomplished anything.
It's good for him to go out and gain some experience now.
The elders laughed it off, trying to cover up the matter.
After a brief tug-of-war, the elders finally reluctantly agreed to Qifei's request.
But let me make this clear from the start: if they find out that Shura didn't treat Qifei and the child well, they will definitely destroy Tianling Pavilion.
Qifei believed that the elders could still keep their word.
After all, dragons are protective of their own.
Although her cultivation level wasn't very high, her family was powerful enough to withstand it.
There's been a widely known piece of news in the cultivation world recently.
The Asura Master of Tianling Pavilion is about to hold a grand ceremony for Daoist couples.
The most peculiar thing is that the Daoist companion of the Asura Master is his eldest disciple.
That's not the most important thing. The most crucial thing is that the powerful backer that the eldest disciple invited was too shocking.
Whose family is this, riding a dragon? And it's not just one dragon!
The whole continent was in an uproar that day.
Everyone was in a hurry to get to Tianling Pavilion.
Unfortunately, apart from those invited to the ceremony, no one else was allowed to enter the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion.
Others may not know, but the head of the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion was practically speechless with astonishment.
Who would have thought that Shura could have such a family connection?
This is so glorious!
The entire Tianling Pavilion was filled with joy, but after Qifei and Xiuluo became Daoist partners, a feeling that was hard to explain suddenly arose in their hearts.
Qifei looked at the man in front of her and felt that he seemed very familiar.
It's not that kind of familiarity, but a deep-seated feeling of familiarity with this person.
It seems like it was only natural for the two of them to be together.
That kind of soul bond seems to have spanned centuries.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Qifei seemed a little dazed, Xiu Luo asked in a low voice.
Qifei smiled at Xiu Luo, "It's nothing, it's just that I always feel like we're destined for each other, like we've known each other for a long time."
These words made Shura stare at Qifei, only to find that she didn't remember anything. In the end, he just held her hand tightly.
"Oh dear, why hasn't it been born yet?" The First Elder paced back and forth anxiously.
"Exactly, dragons usually lay an egg when they give birth. I wonder if this girl will lay an egg or a baby?"
"That can't be right. Isn't it because our dragon bloodline is stronger?"
The elders nodded repeatedly, agreeing that the dragon bloodline was more powerful.
Unfortunately, what followed was a series of slaps in the face.
One after another, the sound of children wailing came from inside the hall, leaving the elders completely bewildered.
Why is that a human crying? Where's the egg?
The elders all surrounded the five tiny, milky-white babies, each of them crying with great fervor.
"What's going on? Why are they all human babies? Will they not be able to turn into dragons?"
The dragon elders were disappointed, as their dragons would only take human form after a specific ceremony following hatching from their eggs.
These little bundles of milk, born in human form, clearly do not conform to the characteristics of the dragon race.
The little ones, of course, had no idea of the dragon elder's sorrow, and this situation continued until the little ones grew to be three years old.
Although the dragon elders were puzzled as to why Qifei had given birth to human offspring, they still doted on them as they were their own reserve offspring.
Every year I take my little ones on a several-day trip to Longbei.
When they came back this time, before the elders could even transform into dragons, the little milk dumplings popped and turned into tiny dragons.
This shocked the elders, who were overjoyed.
So they can turn into dragons when they grow up?
Qi Fei leaned against Xiu Luo's chest, touching her swollen belly, "Master, it should be alright if the elders take them to the Dragon Clan, right?"
"Don't worry, the elders will cherish them even more than you do."
Shura sold the several milk dumplings without hesitation after they were packed up and taken away.
As long as the children don't distract Qifei, it's fine. Besides, she's pregnant now and her energy isn't what it used to be, so it's better to leave sooner rather than later for some peace and quiet.
Qifei couldn't help but smile at Xiuluo, their hands clasped together as if they were tightly connected.
