Inside Li Mai's room at the Li residence, Zhou Quan settled Li Mai on the bed, and the two midwives they had arranged in advance began their work in an orderly manner.
Zhou Quan held Li Mai's hand, looking at her pale face, and felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
“Don’t worry, this day will come eventually. Now listen to me, that woman outside is your sister from your past life, and her goal is to make us take our child or take you back to purify the bloodline of her Luo clan.” Li Mai felt that the most important thing now was to make Zhou Quan understand what was going on.
Zhou Quan frowned. "I understand. Don't worry about what's going on outside. Since her target is me, I'll handle it."
Li Mai held his hand, preventing him from leaving. She was worried that Zhou Quan was no match for Luo Yi, even if only a wisp of her soul appeared.
"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with her." Zhou Quan patted her head. "I'll be back to be with you right away, don't worry." After saying that, Zhou Quan looked at Li Mai reluctantly, gave the midwife a few instructions, and turned to leave.
"Mr. Yang, could you please go and pick up my mother and sister to come and take care of Xiaomai?"
"Your Highness, please guard the wheat for me and do not leave the outer room."
After bowing to the two people, Zhou Quan disappeared into the courtyard and returned to the mountain.
"Come out!" Zhou Quan shouted towards the western void.
"Is my brother looking for me?" A figure appeared behind Zhou Quan.
"I don't have a sister like you, so don't go around claiming relatives." Zhou Quan said coldly, but his eyes were wary of her. He quickly turned around, took three steps back, and distanced himself from the woman.
Luo Yi looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "Brother, do you not want to acknowledge me, or do you not remember your little sister?"
"The Luo family, are they your descendants?" Zhou Quan asked instead of answering.
“Yes, it’s a pity. Although we share the same mother goddess and the same father goddess, we are worlds apart. You have fully inherited your father god’s divine beast bloodline and possess both water and fire elemental abilities, while I have not inherited any bloodline at all. I am just an ordinary person who has inherited a bit of my mother god’s divine power.” Luo Yi turned to look at the void in the south and said softly.
"Later, you were reduced to a ferocious beast and stripped of your divine status. The Father God and Mother God were disappointed in you, which is why they gave birth to me, hoping to have a child who could inherit their divine status. Unfortunately, they were still disappointed. I only inherited the Mother God's divine power, but I did not inherit any of their special abilities or bloodline."
Zhou Quan didn't remember any of this, and listening to her talk about it was like hearing gibberish. He didn't completely believe what Luo Yi said either.
He listened quietly, wary of the other party suddenly attacking him.
"So, you've made your descendants search for me and keep an eye on me generation after generation, all for my supernatural bloodline?" Zhou Quan asked, narrowing his eyes.
"Yes, the last wish of the Mother Goddess and Father Goddess before their fall was that we, brother and sister, could purify our bloodline, give birth to offspring of divine beast bloodlines belonging to our Luo clan, and pass them down from generation to generation."
"Unfortunately, my brother has never acknowledged me as his sister. Even when your friends tried to mediate for us, you wouldn't cooperate. In a fit of anger, I had no choice but to marry a human and have the Luo family line. Unfortunately, generation after generation, the Luo family's descendants have lost all traces of divine beast blood and have become just ordinary humans."
"There's no other way. In order to fulfill the last wishes of the Father God and Mother God, I can only pass down the divine decree that every generation of the Luo family must find you and have offspring with you." After Luo Yi finished speaking, she turned around and looked at him with a smile.
Zhou Quan was utterly speechless. What kind of parents were these, making their children have offspring just to purify their bloodline? Were they out of their minds?
There's no way I'd agree to that.
Thinking about it, he felt uncomfortable and took three steps back, distancing himself from Luo Yi, and his gaze towards her became even colder.
"Don't worry, even if the Mother Goddess came now and wanted to do that, I wouldn't have the chance. Now, all I have left is this wisp of my primordial spirit," Luo Yi said with a bitter smile.
"Brother, let me use this last bit of divine power to help you awaken your bloodline. Only by becoming stronger can you protect your wife and children," Luo Yi said with a smile.
Zhou Quan coldly refused, "I will not let your evil scheme succeed. Also, I warn you, since you are a primordial spirit with divine power, you had better not do anything that would make the world gossip and harm the people of this world."
"Hahahaha, big brother, if your ferocious beasts and strange beast friends heard that you're actually kind enough to protect these humans, they'd laugh themselves to death. In this world, if we're talking about the one who has harmed the most human people, isn't it you? Otherwise, how did you earn the title of ferocious beast?" After laughing heartily, Luo Yi suddenly raised her palm quickly towards Zhou Quan.
Zhou Quan was about to use his spiritual power to resist, but he felt as if his whole body was frozen in place, unable to move an inch. He could only glare at her angrily.
"Hehe, good brother, now you have no chance to refuse. The strongmen of my Luo family have already been deployed around your mansion. As soon as my sister-in-law gives birth, they will rush to snatch the child. Who knows how many things will happen in the process of snatching the child?"
"Don't you want to become stronger, brother, to save sister-in-law and protect your children?" Luo Yi walked towards him step by step and said with a faint smile.
Zhou Quan tried his best to mobilize his spiritual power, hoping it would help him break free from the other party's restraints, but he couldn't move an inch at all.
Seeing that Zhou Quan still didn't nod, she made a gesture in the air, and a scene appeared in front of Zhou Quan: Li Mai was giving birth and screaming in pain. In the blink of an eye, there were black-clad men hiding around the Li residence.
Those people were all cultivators.
At that moment, Zhou Quan wavered.
He remembered that he had asked Xiaomai to help him seal his memories, simply because he didn't want to recall those memories, as they would affect his mood in this life.
If he compares the wheat and the children to his own uncomfortable emotions, he naturally doesn't care.
Zhou Quan squinted and lowered his head in deep thought, calculating how to handle this matter perfectly so that he could both deal with the woman and protect his wife, children, family, and the townspeople from harm.
"Besides, big brother, you're actually getting a great deal. If I help you awaken your bloodline, I'll perish completely and won't pose any threat to you anymore. Big brother, why don't you give it a try?" Luo Yi said with a smile.
Luo Yi was certain that the cultivators trained by the Luo Clan were all quite capable, and with the spatial transformation technique of the metal-type ability users, as long as her elder brother awakened his original divine beast bloodline, it wouldn't be a problem for the Luo Clan to take him back.
This is the last-ditch effort that led Luo Yi to show up.
She used her last bit of divine power to help her elder brother awaken his bloodline, and the appearance of that black-clad man from the Luo family around the Li residence today was a setup she had made for this moment.
Even the cultivators guarding the Li family mansion were not after Li Mai or their children, but rather to help Luo Yi achieve her goal of bringing back Luo Ying, who had awakened her ancient bloodline.
Before awakening, he was just Zhou Quan; after awakening, he became Luo Ying.
