"It's alright. If you want this child, I will naturally do everything I can to protect it." Fu Yucheng squatted down, listened to the child's condition, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it had calmed down and had not harmed Qingyu.
"Fu Yucheng, what race are you? Why is this child's need for support so great?" Qingyu, with her Mahayana cultivation, was barely able to support this child, and she also had to consume a large number of elixirs and medicines every day.
"Qingyu, don't be afraid when I tell you, my true form is a nine-winged celestial dragon." After Fu Yucheng finished speaking, he looked at Qingyu nervously, afraid that she would hate him.
"The Nine-Winged Heavenly Dragon, the leader of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts?" Qingyu couldn't believe it. She just wanted to take on a male disciple, so how did she end up taking on someone with such a powerful background?
"I am not a complete Nine-Winged Heavenly Dragon. Only if I can successfully ascend to the Upper Realm this time can I evolve into my complete form," Fu Yucheng told the truth.
True Monarch Qingyu fell silent. "Aren't you afraid I'll tell them and prevent you from ascending?"
"Qingyu, I believe in you, and I only believe in you. The people I've chosen can't be bad." Fu Yucheng looked refined and gentle, but he was actually very shrewd. He knew exactly how to say things to move Qingyu.
"Hmph! Don't think I'll forgive you just because you say that. After you ascend to immortality, we'll end our Daoist partnership." Qingyu wanted the child in her womb; Fu Yucheng was just a side effect.
"Master, are you planning to abandon me?" Fu Yucheng was heartbroken upon hearing this, and Qingyu couldn't bear to look at his broken and desperate eyes.
After all, they are children I raised myself.
She had given him her heart, and even after what happened later, she never thought of doing anything to him!
"Master, please don't abandon me. In this world, you are all I have. If you don't want me, what am I supposed to do?" Fu Yucheng's tears slid down his cheeks, and he cried pitifully.
"You have friends, family, and...!" Before Qingyu could finish speaking, Fu Yucheng pulled her into his arms.
"Master, I have no friends, no family!"
"No! There's nothing there!"
"I am a ferocious beast! I was born to be hated by people, how could anyone like me!"
"They all just wanted to kill me, they just wanted to kill me!" Fu Yucheng tearfully recounted his ordeal and misery.
Qingyu softened again after seeing Fu Yucheng cry. She patted Fu Yucheng on the back and said, "As long as you don't leave, I won't kick you out."
"Master, are you serious?" Fu Yucheng looked at her cautiously.
"Hmm! When have I ever lied to you?" Qingyu never goes back on her words.
Fu Yucheng smiled happily, buried his head in Qingyu's neck, and his eyes began to darken.
Master, you said it yourself, you're not allowed to send him away anymore.
He murmured to Qingyu, "Master, then I'm definitely sticking with you!"
He will never let go of her, not even in this lifetime or the next.
As long as he exists, she will be his only partner.
“Your senior sister and my junior brother are coming back soon. Aren’t you afraid they’ll laugh at you for crying like this?” Qingyu chuckled and tapped Fu Yucheng’s head.
"Don't be afraid, I'll only cry in front of you, Master. I'll be fierce to others." Fu Yucheng's refined and gentle appearance was completely unrelated to a ferocious beast.
This made Qingyu laugh. "Yes, you're fierce, but cutely fierce."
"Master, don't laugh at me." Fu Yucheng's face gradually turned red as he thought of the things he did when he was a child.
But the woman laughed even louder, and he could only watch her helplessly yet indulgently.
...
Xu Nian and Qing Xuan rushed back to the sect and went to Qingyu Peak immediately.
When Xu Nian met her master, she also saw her junior brother whom she had never met before.
He greeted the two of them, then focused all his attention and gaze on Qingyu Zhenjun.
Xu Nian had seen that focus and tenderness in Qing Xuan's eyes before, because that was how he looked at her.
Moreover, Qingyu Zhenjun got along with him very naturally. She probably didn't even realize that when she was angry with him, her coquettish eyes were full of joy.
After leaving Qingyu Peak, Qingxuan said to Xu Nian, "Niannian, it seems we don't need to worry about Senior Sister anymore."
"Mm!" Xu Nian nodded in agreement.
In her heart, she was marveling at how peculiar her master's lineage was: her aunt Qingxi was forced by her grandmaster, her master was forced by her own disciple, and she was forced by Qingxuan.
It's all about family members forcing each other; it really is a case of keeping the good stuff within the family.
The ceremony for the Daoist couple of Qingyu Zhenjun and his disciple was grand and solemn.
Despite attracting many strange looks, none of them, from master to apprentice, were weak.
Besides, there are some things that don't need to be taken to heart. Talking won't hurt you. The important thing is that the people you care about are around you, and that's wonderful!
As Qingyu Zhenjun's belly grew larger, she consumed more and more elixirs and miraculous medicines.
Fu Yucheng was so thin he was practically emaciated from digging out his heart's blood.
It was at this moment that Xu Nian, Qing Xuan, and the Miao Kong Zhenjun couple realized that something was wrong with the child.
After Qingyu explained the situation, Miaokong Zhenjun wanted to beat Fu Yucheng to death on the spot, but Qingxi and Qingyu stopped him.
"What do you suggest we do now?" Miao Kong Zhenjun asked Fu Yucheng, pointing at Qingyu's belly.
“The child needs a lot of rare and precious herbs. I’ll go out and find them. You all keep an eye on Qingyu for me,” Fu Yucheng said weakly, coughing.
He hadn't expected the child to be so difficult to conceive. He had already lost most of his blood, but Qingyu's body was still teetering on the brink of danger.
“I have plenty of rare and precious materials here. Quickly take a look and see what we can give to Master!” Xu Nian took out everything from her storage space and let Fu Yucheng choose.
"Senior sister, thank you!" Fu Yucheng's eyes reddened. Every item Xu Nian took out could be used by Qingyu.
"Junior Brother Fu, we're all family, no need to be so polite." Xu Nian was now very glad that the two of them would pick some of the precious natural treasures they saw back then, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to afford them.
“I have some too, don’t just give them to Qingyu. And what about yourself? Don’t collapse before you even see the child.” Miaokong Zhenjun was extremely disgusted with Fu Yucheng.
But Fu Yucheng's eyes reddened again as he listened. He knelt on the ground and sincerely kowtowed to the group, saying, "Thank you for your help, Grandmaster, Grandmother, Senior Sister, and Uncle!"
"Alright, let's not beat around the bush. Just tell us if there's a problem. We're family, there's no reason not to help." True Monarch Miaokong had a lot of complaints about Fu Yucheng, but thinking of the child in Qingyu's belly, he could only accept it.
At this moment, he also understood why Qingyu was so angry with him when she found out that he had abducted his little apprentice.
If he could, he would also like to kill this grand-disciple who kidnapped his disciple right now.
Alas! What goes around comes around. What he did back then is now coming back to haunt him.
