Zhao Yu, who had been suffering, was now properly settled, and Wei Chen was in high spirits as he went to pick up Elegant and Sister Qingling.
Elegant had already shared a deeper connection with Wei Chen, though he himself was unaware of it.
However, when he saw Elegant, Wei Chen felt a strange confusion. Why did it seem that there was a stirring presence within Elegant's belly?
Upon closer inspection, he noticed an unformed life gently wriggling inside her.
Elegant and Qingling stood together, and upon seeing Wei Chen, they both felt excited.
But Wei Chen's expression was oddly fixated on Elegant's stomach, which left her puzzled.
"Wei Chen, what brings you here? Weren't you at the Peach Blossom Sect?" Elegant asked lightly, shaking off her confusion as she looked at him.
"Oh dear sister, he's come to see us! Aren't you happy?" Qingling playfully scolded Elegant before stepping forward and affectionately taking Wei Chen's arm. She pouted, "Brother Wei Chen, isn't the Peach Blossom Sect surrounded by the Upper Realm Army? How do you have time to come find us?"
Wei Chen continued to stare at Elegant's belly in silence, feeling increasingly strange.
"What’s going on? Is Elegant pregnant?"
"That life... why does it feel like its bloodline is similar to mine?"
The more Wei Chen thought about it, the stranger it seemed. What on earth was happening?
Elegant felt a chill run down her spine under Wei Chen's gaze. She found his fixation inexplicable; was this fellow going mad staring at her belly?
But soon enough, a hint of shyness appeared on Elegant's face. Could it be?
Time was still short, and she did not yet know she was pregnant, but with her missed period and Wei Chen's strange gaze, Elegant suddenly thought of that possibility.
"Did I ruin Wei Chen's child?"
"Just that one night... Is he really so fond of me?"
A surge of wild joy rose within Elegant. She had calculated the timing of her encounter with Wei Chen, believing the odds were in her favor, yet she did not hold out too much hope. After all, such matters were not so simple; the birth of life was an incredibly complex process. Elegant fantasized about being able to conceive Wei Chen's child, but she did not dare to dream too extravagantly.
Now, thinking about her delayed period and recalling Wei Chen's gaze, Elegant felt a pang in her heart. Could it be that she was really pregnant?
"Brother Wei Chen, why are you staring at my sister's belly? Even if you really like her, it’s not like you should be looking at her stomach!" Qingling teased, laughing as she looked at Wei Chen.
Being near Wei Chen gave Qingling a very comfortable feeling; it was the allure of the Demon Lotus. Her affection for Wei Chen was almost entirely due to the Demon Lotus Heart within him. It was a pull of life’s instinct that could not be changed or eased. Only by being with Wei Chen could she experience true comfort from deep within.
Having fused with the Demon Lotus Petal as her Martial Soul, it was fine until she encountered Wei Chen; at that point, there was no turning back. She would inevitably become infatuated with him.
Wei Chen awkwardly shook his head and said, "It's nothing. How have you both been lately?"
"We're doing well! But Soul World might be doomed; seeing you makes both me and my sister very happy," Qingling replied, her eyes bright and sparkling.
Seeing Wei Chen lifted her spirits uncontrollably. No matter what the Upper Realm's strong ones were there for, just like when she first saw the Upper Realm Army alongside Sister Qingya, death seemed inconsequential; all she wished for was to see Wei Chen once more before it happened.
Their prayers had already been answered.
Wei Chen smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry; Soul World won't be doomed. Those Upper Realm armies are just passing through; they will leave soon."
"How do you know?" Elegant asked, a bit excited, temporarily pushing aside the thought of whether she was really pregnant.
The entire Soul World was in a state of unrest. Although the truth of Wei Chen's news was still uncertain, it was enough to stir Elegant's emotions.
Wei Chen smiled and said, "Because they are all my subordinates. I'm about to leave, and naturally, they will follow me."
"What?"
"What do you mean?"
Elegant and Qingling asked in unison.
The two women had strikingly similar features, each possessing their own beauty, as they stared intently at Wei Chen.
What Wei Chen had revealed was simply too shocking.
Wei Chen chuckled, "It's nothing much. They are all my subordinates. I left the Soul World some time ago and went to a higher Spatial Plane called the Demon Realm, where I experienced some things..."
Under the astonished gazes of Elegant and Qingling, Wei Chen began to recount the events that had transpired.
Elegant and Qingling thought Wei Chen was joking. How could there be such miraculous occurrences in this world? Yet, looking at Wei Chen's demeanor, he seemed completely serious!
Both women found it hard to believe but felt compelled to accept it. They sensed that Wei Chen had transformed into someone entirely different—much stronger than before. Although he sat leisurely across from them sipping tea, he gave off an impression of being both real and ethereal, as if he could vanish at any moment.
Wei Chen felt like air, like flowing wind, like the bonsai around them, like the teacup in front of them. He was whatever he was; it was an incredibly surreal sensation that made it difficult for them to comprehend what had truly happened to him.
As Wei Chen slowly recounted his story, Elegant and Sister Qingling were left in a daze for quite some time, their expressions gradually regaining some semblance of life. Their capacity for acceptance was not particularly strong; if it had been, they wouldn't have appeared so shocked. In contrast, individuals like Old Man Han Mang, Zhao Yu, and Ji Mei had a much stronger ability to accept new information. Ji Mei, in particular, recovered from her shock almost immediately.
The duration of their shock also reflected the strength of their innate abilities. Those with stronger gifts and better comprehension naturally accepted things more quickly. Conversely, those with weaker gifts and lesser understanding found it harder to accept new information. Elegant and Qingling's cultivation abilities were indeed not very strong, and since they hadn't spent much time with Wei Chen—unlike Zhao Yu, who knew him well—they were left feeling extremely stunned, even questioning whether Wei Chen might be joking.
While Wei Chen was conversing with Elegant and Sister Qingling, Zhao Yu awoke in her room aboard the Shenzhou, emerging from extreme fatigue as her consciousness gradually returned. Her attention was entirely focused on Wei Chen; the joy of their reunion and the overwhelming pleasure she felt left no room for her to ponder his words in detail.
Now that her mind was clearer, fragments of their conversation began to surface, creating a chaotic swirl of thoughts in Zhao Yu's head: the Demon Realm, Nine Immortal Realm, Hua Xia World, Three Major Spatial Dimensions, Ancient World, Endless Divine Realm... all names she had never heard before.
It turned out that it wasn't Zhao Yu's capacity for acceptance that was lacking; rather, at that moment, she was solely focused on Wei Chen. Once her mind cleared and she began to think about those terms, she felt an immense shock.
In Elegant's estate, Wei Chen smiled as he observed Elegant and Sister Qingling. He was well aware of the feelings these sisters had for him; otherwise, he wouldn't have come. Previously, due to certain circumstances, he couldn't be with Elegant and Qingling. Now that all concerns were lifted, he didn't want to miss this opportunity again.
There was no doubt about the sisters' feelings for Wei Chen; it was just a matter of him speaking up for everything to unfold.
However, the change in Elegant was the greatest mystery surrounding Wei Chen's visit to them.
How could it be that Elegant inexplicably had another life growing inside her?
If it were merely a matter of an additional life forming within her, Wei Chen would feel regretful about how quickly Elegant seemed to have developed feelings for someone else and become pregnant. But considering the timeline didn't add up—based on the size of the life within Elegant's womb, Wei Chen could accurately deduce that it had been about a month...
As a deity now, this was no challenge for him to discern.
So then, wasn't it around a month ago in Soul World when Peach Blossom Sect was preparing for its establishment? At that time, Elegant had been within Peach Blossom Sect; how could she have inexplicably developed feelings for another man?
After ruling out this possibility, Wei Chen increasingly felt that the life inside Elegant was his own.
The power of that bloodline, although not strong yet, was something Wei Chen could fully sense—it was his own bloodline!
How strange, it was truly bizarre!
Wei Chen pondered deeply; what kind of relationship had he ever had with Elegant? If anyone were to be pregnant, it should logically be Yan Qiqi, right? After all, he had "worked hard" the most with Yan Qiqi...
"Is Elegant really pregnant? With my child?"
"No, that can't be right. It clearly isn't."
"But that bloodline aura is unmistakably mine. I can't possibly misidentify something so fundamental, can I?"
At this thought, Wei Chen couldn't help but doubt his own judgment. This was an extraordinary event—more bizarre than Inexplicably's venture into the Demon Realm and the subsequent series of power-ups.
Wei Chen recalled carefully and suddenly remembered that night when Elegant had sought him out for a heart-to-heart. He had drunk some alcohol and then inexplicably fell asleep...
Could it be?
As that possibility dawned on him, Wei Chen's face turned pale. Could it have been that one time?
Elegant and Qingling were still immersed in shock over what Wei Chen had done, while Wei Chen's eyes sparkled with intensity as he stared fixedly at Elegant, particularly at her belly, with a somewhat lewd demeanor.
Staring at a woman's belly for an extended period—wasn't that lewd?
After a while, Elegant and Qingling snapped out of their shock and looked at Wei Chen as if they had seen a ghost.
"Wei Chen, is everything you said true?" Elegant looked at Wei Chen, her expression serious.
Wei Chen shrugged and replied, "Can anyone really deceive about something like this? However, there is one thing I want to ask you properly."
"What... what is it?" Elegant's gaze flickered, a hint of nervousness creeping in.
"Wei Chen turned to Qingling and said, "Sister Qingling, you wait here for a moment. I need to talk to your sister about something."
"Okay, you two go ahead." Qingling noticed the seriousness on Wei Chen's face and felt a bit lost, unsure of what was happening.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Wei Chen and Elegant instantly vanished.
Qingling looked around for a moment, a bitter smile appearing on her face as she sighed, "Brother Wei Chen's strength is indeed formidable; I can't even sense a trace of his aura. He took my sister away with such a serious expression—could something have happened?"
Little did Qingling know, she was about to become an aunt!
In the blink of an eye, Wei Chen brought Elegant to the deck of the Divine Vessel.
As Elegant surveyed the surrounding dark-clad Army and felt their powerful presence, she no longer doubted Wei Chen's words. These were indeed his subordinates—truly formidable!
Elegant felt a bit anxious, not because of the Army but because of the look in Wei Chen's eyes.
What kind of gaze was that!
