The screams inside the house continued one after another...
Blinded by rage, Huo Wu couldn't discern anything slightly strange.
She dragged her sword, and wherever she went, blood spread.
After killing the maid, wet nurse, and midwife one by one, she moved closer to the bed...
The woman on the bed had her legs propped up, covered by a brocade quilt so that her face could not be seen.
A cry of pain escaped her lips, stimulating every nerve in Huo Wu's body. How could she be worthy!
Have Huo Jin's child!!
Huo Jin shouldn't have children either.
They shouldn't have any of them.
If you can't live like a ghost, then die like a human!
Fire Dance's eyes were bloodshot as she slowly raised her sword—
At this critical moment, the door was slammed open with a loud bang.
A black figure shot out the scabbard of his sword and attacked Huo Wu.
The latter instinctively turned to defend itself.
In an instant, the sound of weapons clashing rang in my ears.
The two swords rubbed and tore, sparks flew, and the atmosphere became even more tense and tricky.
Huo Wu felt inexplicably familiar with the opponent's moves.
"Who are you?" She seized the opportunity, using her moves to get closer to her opponent, keeping her sword low, and pressed him for an answer.
The other party wore a human skin mask; beneath the fake face, their eyes were piercing and filled with murderous intent.
Its towering figure was half-drenched in moonlight, majestic and awe-inspiring.
He didn't speak, but his eyes were like those of a dark wolf as he turned his head to look at the corpses on the ground and the swollen, delicate body on the bed that had almost been murdered.
"Ha!"
Incredibly, Huo Xi let out a low growl, casually pushing Huo Wu aside and tossing her aside, then walked anxiously toward the bed.
However, Huo Wu hadn't recognized him yet. She raised her sword to stop him, saying, "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. I will kill that woman on the bed today!"
Huo Xi's jawline was taut, and she made an angry grinding sound.
This is fucking awful!
That was Huo Jin's most precious treasure. He had repeatedly told him to keep his life in check, and that if anything were to happen to him, even the deaths of his sworn brothers wouldn't be enough to atone for it.
Has Huo Wu taken the wrong medicine?
He ignored it and kept going.
Seeing this, Huo Wu said angrily, "If you insist on courting death, then don't blame me for being impolite!"
With that, he drew his sword and thrust it forward.
The weapons clashed once more, producing a piercing sound. Huo Xi, unable to bear it any longer, blurted out, "Huo Wu, can you please stop messing around!"
Huo Wu was stunned, her ruthless move frozen in mid-air—
Coming to his senses, his eyes were bloodshot, his gaze sharp as copper bells. "You...this is impossible..."
Huo Xi glanced at the bed; the screaming had stopped, and the woman was trembling uncontrollably under the covers.
No longer caring about anything else, she ripped off her mask. "Fire Dance, look who I am! You've really disappointed me. Do you even know what you're doing?"
After speaking, his hand holding the sword trembled slightly as he asked gently, "Sister-in-law, are you alright?"
He took a deep breath and reached his hand towards the raised blankets.
But as he reached for the bedding, Huo Wu slashed it with her sword. She lunged forward, standing between him and the bed, "Huo Xi, Big Brother...you're not dead?"
"Um."
Huo Xi was too preoccupied to care about Huo Wu at the moment, or rather, Huo Xi couldn't believe that Huo Wu was still the same Huo Wu she used to be after doing something so unbelievable.
The person in bed did not respond to Huo Xi.
There was no sound at all inside the blanket.
Were they terrified? Or were they in so much pain that they couldn't even make a sound?
Huo Xi's heart was in turmoil, yet she hesitated. Would it be too offensive to simply pull back the covers?
Huo Wu stood there dumbfounded, her mind reeling from Huo Xi's words "sister-in-law," which had also deeply affected her.
Instinctively, I didn't want Chu Yuan to be alive.
So she went over, grabbed Huo Jin's clothes, and tears streamed down her face: "Huo Xi... Big Brother, you lied to me so badly! I thought... I thought..."
"We'll talk about your problem later!" Huo Xi impatiently pushed her aside and asked again, "Sister-in-law, are you hurt? I'll pull the blanket off now. If you're uncomfortable, just say so, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Wu's eyes darkened again.
Malicious thoughts uncontrollably arise in my mind.
In fact, before Huo Xi could react in time, she yanked the blankets hard, and the person wrapped in them was bound to roll off the bed due to the force!
"What are you doing??" Huo Xi was completely enraged by Huo Wu's actions and shoved her hard. At the same time, three more people quickly entered the room, their foreheads covered in sweat from their anxious rush.
"How are you? Big brother, is your wife alright?"
Huo Wu suddenly looked up and saw Huo Ling, Huo Yu, and Huo Yan, all unharmed...
Unfamiliar, yet all the more familiar.
And they were all extremely nervous about the person in bed.
Huo Wu's heart felt as if a huge hole had been ripped out, leaving it desolate, empty, and as if she had fallen into an abyss...
At this moment, Chu Yuan was in a speeding carriage. The carriage walls were made entirely of copper plates, making it impervious to spears. Of course, it was unlikely that anyone could save him.
Halfway through giving birth, she was dragged into a carriage and forced to wander.
It's fucking outrageous! A mother opening the door for someone else is just ridiculous! It's ridiculous beyond belief!
Fortunately, all the pills were still effective. Apart from the initial reminders that she was about to give birth and a few symbolic contractions, she no longer felt anything.
No hot water...
Midwives, maids, wet nurses...none of them!
But the child kept jumping out!
After her attempts to delay childbirth through communication with the system failed, Chu Yuan resigned herself to her fate and struck a pose, encouraging herself: It's okay, it's okay, practice makes perfect. It's just delivering my own baby, I can do it!
The only thing to overcome was the bumpy carriage ride.
