"She is indeed pregnant. Judging from the timeline, it should be around that time in the secret realm."
"No, no, no..." Liuli Zhenjun felt like his world was about to collapse.
"Enough!" Dai Xingyu pulled her aside, then turned to his fourth senior brother and the others and said, "You all continue searching for the spiritual vein. I have some family matters to attend to, and I hope you senior brothers can understand."
The disciples of the Azure Sword Sect are all here to freeload spirit stones; who would want to deal with such dirty business?
"Dai Xingyu, what are you going to do?" Liuli Zhenjun trembled all over. She screamed and tried to back away, but Dai Xingyu held her tightly.
"Liuli, are you going to carry this shame with you? Don't worry, it will pass soon."
Dai Xingyu's eyes were cold and ruthless. He gathered spiritual power in his palm and struck Liuli Zhenjun's abdomen with a fierce blow.
A sharp pain struck, and Liuli Zhenjun was in so much pain that he almost fainted. He lost his balance and fell to the ground, where a large amount of hot blood flowed beneath him.
"Wei Qinghe, you will make me pay back a thousandfold for the pain I have suffered today."
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her chin. When she opened her eyes, she was met with Dai Xingyu's murderous gaze.
"Tell me, whose children are those stillborn babies in the secret compartment of your room?"
When questioned like this, Liuli Zhenjun panicked instantly, as if he had forgotten his hatred for Wei Qinghe.
"I...I didn't! There's no such thing as a stillborn child! Is it a spirit beast fetus?"
Dai Xingyu gave a self-deprecating laugh, forcefully shook off Liuli Zhenjun, and after getting up, he vigorously wiped his hands with a handkerchief, clearly feeling that touching Liuli Zhenjun had dirtied his hands.
"Liuli, you have really disappointed me!"
The difference between Wei Qinghe and Liuli is simply too great. How incredibly stupid must he be to abandon Wei Qinghe and choose such a worthless piece of trash?
The sect leader's wife rushed over and slapped Liuli Zhenjun across the face, causing her veil to slip off and revealing his hideous and terrifying face.
The sect leader's wife spat in disgust, "How ugly! Xingyu, what are you still standing there for? This little bitch treated you like this, just break up with her. Now that we have a spiritual vein, what kind of noble lady from a major sect can't we have?"
"Even if it's Wei Qinghe..." The sect leader's wife hesitated, knowing that Wei Qinghe was the junior sister of the Spirit Sect, and it might not be so easy for her.
“Mother, that’s enough.” Dai Xingyu spoke up in time, “Wei Qinghe and I are a thing of the past.”
It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he knows he's not worthy, at least not now.
Ignoring the pain in her stomach, Liuli Zhenjun sneered, "You really are shameless to the extreme. You abandoned Wei Qinghe for the benefit of Qingjian Sect, and now you want to choose Wei Qinghe for the benefit of Ling Sect."
"Leaving aside whether Wei Qinghe will come back to her, just the fact that you've boarded my Liuli's ship, do you think our Qingjian Sect is something you can fawn over or push away as you please?"
"My father is the Star Radiance Dao Venerable! Dai Xingyu, are you sure you still want to be my father's enemy?"
Both Dai Xingyu and her son felt ice-cold all over, as if they had been pushed into an ice cave.
Dai Xingyu is currently only at the Tengyun Realm, and he hasn't even reached the Wenxin Ladder title yet.
Even if one obtains the title of True Monarch, there is still a realm difference between him and Star Radiance Dao Venerable, which is an insurmountable gap.
Dai Xingyu suppressed his anger, knowing that only by becoming stronger could he get everything he wanted.
"Mother, let's continue trying to break the formation and find the spiritual vein!"
...
As the warm breeze caressed her face, Wei Qinghe felt a clarity in her mind she had never experienced before.
Standing on the 999th step of the Heart-Questioning Ladder, a golden rune mark flashed in his sea of consciousness.
Originally, the sea of consciousness was like a vast ocean; now, it is a verdant landscape of green hills and clear waters.
In the void of the sea of consciousness, there was a white tiger phantom and a ** phantom, with a jade-like longsword standing tall, its sword intent surging as it rose and fell.
The multicolored spiritual root, like a flower, rippled in the sea of consciousness, while the power of multiple elements spread in the water.
"Dong..." The ancient bell tolled from afar, as if it were right next to my ear.
A phantom image of a golden bell descended from the sky, enveloping Wei Qinghe.
Wei Qinghe felt a force constantly drilling into her body, and the fiery bracelet on her wrist was also covered by a layer of golden openwork.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, you have passed the Ladder of Inquiry."
The moment the Golden Bell Shield's protective barrier dissipated, a handsome, greyish-white figure suddenly appeared.
The newcomer, with his striking features and extraordinary bearing, was none other than Zhu Hong, the city lord of Feixian City.
Zhu Hong looked to be around thirty years old, with a refined demeanor and a rare scholarly air about him.
