Many people in the tribe began building new houses, and at this moment, this house was the perfect tool. Haitang looked at her house, which had been there for several years, and decided to build a new one.
Now that most of the shared facilities are in use, private properties can also be purchased. Haitang started spending money to buy them, and soon after, she found someone to start building a house next door.
The house construction went quite quickly. Since it was a familiar project and not the first time, there weren't many unexpected problems this time. Haitang led Dongfang Chen to look around, and Dongfang Chen asked, "Mom, why are we building a house?"
"Because this house is more comfortable to live in, of course don't worry, the house we lived in at the beginning will still be there." The house we lived in at the beginning will still be there, but Haitang reached out and touched her abdomen.
She's pregnant, four months along. Because she's wearing a lot of clothes, no one can tell. Haitang doesn't actually want this child.
However, after much hesitation, she decided to give birth to the child, because it was her child with Dongfang Long.
However, giving birth to a child carries risks. If the child turns out to be a little beastman, then the situation will be the same as Dongfang Chen's at the beginning, where the child might be taken away by someone else.
Although Haitang knew about this, she still chose to give birth to the child because if she didn't, she would probably be trapped by this matter for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, she was in good health, so she kept the matter of having a child under control. Haitang planned to use the story of Dream of the Red Chamber to write a book and stay at home. Under these circumstances, no one would suspect anything after she gave birth to the child.
The Dream of the Red Chamber describes other things, such as Haitang's plans for a new house, which of course has a purpose. When Dongfang Chen looked at Haitang, he blinked and noticed something strange about his mother.
When Haitang got home, she started cooking. While eating, she looked at Dongfang Chen and said, "Mom, you've gained weight..."
"Xu, it's not that Mommy has gotten fat, it's something else, but you can't tell anyone, little dumpling, do you hear me?" The little dumpling nodded and looked at Haitang.
Although he didn't understand what Haitang meant, he understood at night. "Mommy's tummy..." Dongfang Chen said.
"Mom is pregnant, but you can't tell anyone. Mom will tell a few people when the time comes, but you can't spread the word," Haitang said to Dongfang Chen.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Chen immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Mom, I will. I won't tell anyone."
When his father left, he told Dongfang Chen to listen to his mother, and that he would. Haitang nodded and reached out to touch her belly. "Do you want to touch it?"
Hearing this, Dongfang Chen nodded and reached out to stroke it. As he painted the child, a look of shock and surprise crossed his face as he stared at Haitang. "Mommy...it feels so gentle..."
"Hmm." Haitang smiled and said, "Yes, the child is growing up." Haitang continued, "But there are still several months to go." Haitang only told Shi Hu about her child when it was five months old.
When Shi Hu heard this, he couldn't help but frown. "You... never mind, what do you plan to do? If the child is born a little beastman, you'll have a lot of trouble."
"I know." Upon hearing this, Haitang nodded directly and said, "But this is my child, I will find a way."
"Tangtang, whatever you want to do, I will support you. Remember, I am your father." He said, looking at Haitang. Haitang nodded upon hearing this.
"Yes, I know, Dad... I will." Haitang nodded and then smiled as she reached out and rubbed her stomach.
Haitang was very happy about the arrival of this child. As for whether there would be any danger in the future, Haitang didn't care. She just wanted to protect her child in the present.
After arriving at the Holy Domain, Dongfang Long was imprisoned. As the only dragon-beastman, Dongfang Long practically became a tourist attraction for everyone once he arrived at the Holy Domain.
"This is a dragon beastman. I don't see anything particularly strange about him. He's quite good-looking, though. If I had a child with him, would it also be a dragon beastman?"
"Don't even think about it. Dragon beastmen are for food. You're going to give birth to a child and die?" someone nearby said, and the female quickly nodded.
"A noble bloodline can only give birth to such lowly servants." Servants are still slaves, and the slaves in this sacred realm live a more miserable life than anywhere else.
Dongfang Long ignored them and simply sat down a short distance away to rest with his eyes closed. As the people around him looked at Dongfang Long, they began to scrutinize him.
As he looked around, his greed was evident. To be honest, he didn't feel anything different in this sacred domain. Each tribe was still a tribe, and there was no money.
The city wall, though merely a pile of stones, was designed to collapse upon impact.
Amidst all this, Dongfang Long felt a little dazed. He used to think that the Holy Domain was really luxurious and extravagant, but now he was back.
However, they discovered that the Holy Domain before them was not as good as the Tiger Clan Tribe. The Tiger Clan Tribe was much better than this place. Although the Holy Domain had people raising animals for the past few hundred years, most of them died.
Because humans themselves couldn't even feed themselves, they had no strength to care for animals. Furthermore, the lack of proper cleaning and the resulting strong stench caused almost every animal they raised to die. Gradually, fewer people started raising animals, and even when they did, they simply left slaves to fend for themselves.
