When Jiang Li woke up from his coma, he found Jun Yuelan chatting with an old man and a seahorse with a bulging belly.
Elder Starfish placed one hand on his forehead, shook his head and sighed helplessly, looking like he had a very serious headache.
His white beard was slightly raised, and the corners of his lips moved as he spoke softly, "Two days ago, I told your father that you had not yet been assigned a gender. We were also discussing finding some unmarried mermaids to meet you, perhaps you could find someone you like. I didn't expect that just when this matter was finalized, you turned into a male when I saw you again. Surprisingly..." At this point, Elder Xingyu sighed again, his brows still not relaxed at all, "You actually fell in love with the females on land."
When Xiao Jie heard this, he interrupted before Jun Yuelan could speak, "Elder Xingyu, I have already taught him a lesson, don't be angry."
Elder Xingyu raised his hand and waved at Xiaojie, and continued, "It doesn't matter which female he likes. What bothers me is that he actually gave the mermaid pearl to this female."
After hearing this, Xiao Jie's eyes widened and he looked at Jun Yuelan in disbelief, "What? The mermaid pearl? Jun Yuelan, is what Elder Xingyu said true? You gave your mermaid pearl to this female?"
Jun Yuelan lowered her head and pursed her lips, not daring to say anything. She just nodded twice to express her agreement.
"Jun Yuelan, are you confused?" Xiao Jie was like a madman, chattering around Jun Yuelan's ear, "How long have you known her and you just gave her your mermaid pearl? You know how important the mermaid pearl is to you mermaids. What if she is an unforgivable villain? What if she uses your mermaid pearl to lead the orcs on land to besiege our Sana River?"
Xiao Jie's series of questions made Jun Yuelan lower his head even more.
To be honest, he really hadn't thought about this.
But even though Xiao Jie said so much, he still trusted Jiang Li in his heart.
"I believe she won't..."
His voice was low and he did not seem confident in what he said.
"Oh, my God!" Xiao Jie rolled his eyes and fell backwards, "Oh my God, the pure little mermaid was deceived by the scheming female! Oh my God!" Xiao Jie's tone was very exaggerated, as if this was true.
Jiang Li, who had just woken up, heard their conversation and felt something was wrong. When did she lie to him? When did she become a scheming woman? How come she didn't know?
Finally I couldn't help but speak.
"Hey, should you use evidence when speaking? When did I lie to him? When did I become so scheming?"
Jiang Li's sudden words startled Xiao Jie.
"Ah!" Xiao Jie screamed and was so scared that he shrank his whole body behind Jun Yuelan.
"Are you awake?" Jun Yuelan saw Jiang Li woke up, his eyes shining with excitement.
He quickly came to Jiang Li and carefully looked at her whole body. "How are you? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Jiang Li felt a little softened when faced with Jun Yuelan's caring words.
She shook her head. "I'm fine."
Hearing this, Jun Yuelan breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you're okay. I was so scared when I saw you fainted when I came back. Fortunately, Elder Xingyu is here and has detoxified you."
When she heard that she was poisoned, Jiang Li's mind flashed with the puffer fish she saw before she fainted, and her hand was stabbed by it. Her heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she asked Jun Yuelan fearfully.
"What about the kid? Is he okay?"
At this time, Elder Xingyu spoke up and replied, "With the protection of the mermaid pearl, the poison did not harm the baby in the belly."
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief.
"But..." Xingyu changed the subject and held her breath, which made Jiang Li's heart rise again. "The baby in your belly is a little malnourished. This is not good."
He raised his eyes and looked at Jun Yuelan, "We need to give her more nutrition. If I'm not mistaken, the baby will be born in about seven days."
"What? Born in seven days?" Jiang Li really couldn't believe his ears.
Isn't it a ten-month pregnancy? How come it's only a few days here?
Elder Starfish was no longer surprised by Jiang Li's shock. After all, any female who had never given birth would be shocked like this at first.
"The gestation period of orcs is very short. They will rely on their own spiritual power to make the baby in their belly grow. Normally, other orcs will give birth in just three to five days, but looking at you..." Elder Xingyu paused, looked Jiang Li up and down, and remained silent.
But this action made Jun Yuelan very anxious, fearing that Jiang Li might be in danger. "Elder Xingyu, what happened to her? Is there any problem?"
Elder Xingyu shook his head and continued, "Her spiritual power is really too low. It's a miracle that she can transform into a human form."
Those two sentences were like arrows, piercing Jiang Li's heart mercilessly.
But Elder Xingyu didn't notice it, and continued to say mercilessly, "A female with strong spiritual power can give birth in three to five days, but she has to wait for a week. Alas... she is too weak." Elder Xingyu sighed and shook his head. He really couldn't understand why Jun Yuelan would fall for such a weak female?
Two more arrows pierced Jiang Li's heart, causing her to feel so painful that she could hardly breathe and wanted to cry but had no tears...
She knows that she is weak, but there is no need to speak of her so mercilessly, right?
"Then... is there any way to increase her spiritual power? Or is it because her spiritual power is too weak that she can't give birth to a child?" The silly mermaid didn't understand these and asked confusedly.
"Spiritual power depends on one's own qualifications. Her qualifications are too poor."
As soon as he said the last word, Jiang Li felt a mouthful of blood gushing out from his chest, getting stuck in his throat and he almost vomited it out.
There's no need to keep poking her in the heart.
"Spiritual power has nothing to do with childbirth, it just takes longer to gestate." Elder Xingyu looked at Jiang Li again and asked, "You probably didn't take any nutritional supplements after you became pregnant, did you?"
Jiang Li thought about it and realized that the only meal he had eaten was just now.
She nodded.
"Eat more good food during that time to supplement your nutrition, otherwise the child will be weak and sickly when he is born. Eat more meat, as the nutrition comes quickly. Remember not to be picky about food, you are not the only one now..." Elder Starfish kept muttering.
Jun Yuelan took out a piece of fish skin from somewhere and wrote on it with her sharp nails.
"Yes, I understand, Elder Xingyu, I have written it down."
"Okay, that's all. If you have any problems, just come to me."
After Elder Xingyu finished speaking, he stood up.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Jun Yuelan quickly took back the fish skin in her hand.
