Chapter 138: Chapter 138: The Most Cherished Reward — Bai Xiuxiu, Sea Maiden Douluo, and Xiao Bai Give Birth
Martial God City.The Zhou Residence.
A shimmering portal rippling like water appeared in the air. Moments later, a handsome and distinguished man stepped out, holding an ethereal beauty in his arms.
The fairy-like woman's delicate, jade-like cheeks were tinged with a faint blush, her eyes shimmering with an intoxicating allure. Traces of lingering passion lingered in her brows.
These two were none other than Zhou Yi and Xiao Longnu.
Xiao Longnu, who rarely showed interest in her surroundings, was curiously observing her new environment, her heart fluttering with unease.
"So, this is my future home?"
A mix of nervousness and anticipation filled her thoughts.
Zhou Yi carried her straight into a small courtyard. Though described as small, it was actually spacious, far more so than her former residence at the Ancient Tomb.
"Long'er, what do you think of staying here in the future?" Zhou Yi asked as he set her down and gave her a brief tour of the area.
Xiao Longnu gently nodded. The courtyard's serene and elegant atmosphere suited her temperament perfectly.
"If you need anything in the future, just let me know or instruct the servants," Zhou Yi said while guiding her into the bedroom.
At the same time, Zhou Yi realized that during his time in the Ancient Tomb World, or more precisely the Divine Condor World, time in Douluo Continent had scarcely moved forward.
The passage of time seemed to vary between worlds, but Zhou Yi dismissed the thought without concern.
"Does it still hurt?" he asked, his voice soft as his chin rested lightly on her snow-white shoulder.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Longnu looked puzzled, not understanding his question.
"I mean it," Zhou Yi replied solemnly.
There was no denying it—Xiao Longnu was utterly captivating. It wasn't just her beauty or her ethereal charm. She was also the goddess of Zhou Yi's dreams, a figure adorned with countless halos of perfection.
"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Longnu furrowed her brows, still not grasping his intent.
"I mean it," Zhou Yi reiterated, his words few but resolute.
This time, instead of speaking further, he demonstrated through his actions what he truly meant.
Perhaps it was the overwhelming beauty of the moment, or perhaps it was the intensity of their emotions, but time slipped away unnoticed.
By the time they came to their senses, dawn had already broken.
The chirping of birds stirred them awake. A soft light illuminated the surroundings, filling the air with the vitality of spring.
Zhou Yi took a deep breath, savoring the morning's freshness—a fragrance as pure as dew, as clear as a mountain stream, and as radiant as sunlight piercing through a crystal.
What captivated him most was the sight of Xiao Longnu lying by his side. Her porcelain-like cheeks were still flushed, her eyes tinged with traces of tears from the night before. Her delicate appearance evoked both tenderness and guilt.
"Did I go too far?" Zhou Yi pondered, aware of the tremendous strength his refined body possessed, honed by techniques like the Thirteen-Stage Water-Fire Golden Bell Shield.
Xiao Longnu, inexperienced and unprepared for such intensity, had clearly endured more than she could handle.
As Zhou Yi shifted, Xiao Longnu stirred, her brows furrowed in discomfort. Despite her natural grace, the ache radiating through her body was unmistakable.
Opening her eyes, she gazed at Zhou Yi's handsome face, marveling at the boundless power concealed within him. It was a power that seemed almost otherworldly—a divine presence descending to earth.
Taking out a vial of Nine-Flower Jade Dew Balm, Zhou Yi gently applied it to her injuries. The sacred medicine was soothing, its cooling properties easing her pain and restoring her energy.
"Rest well, Long'er," Zhou Yi murmured, pressing a tender kiss to her forehead before rising and leaving the room.
Watching his departing figure, Xiao Longnu's emotions stirred. She hadn't expected the series of events that had unfolded overnight: being immobilized by Yang Guo's righteous father, escaping the clutches of despicable Taoist priests, and ultimately being rescued by Zhou Yi—a man as divine as the heavens themselves.
Yet, even he proved to be a "bad person," as he had also "bullied" her.
Still, Xiao Longnu's tranquil nature, tempered by her cultivation of the Jade Maiden Technique, allowed her to accept her fate.
"Since I am here, I may as well stay," she thought quietly. Zhou Yi, after all, was flawless in every way—a true dragon among men.
Even if his strength was overwhelming, she could not deny her admiration for him.
With no one disturbing her, the already emotionally and physically exhausted Little Dragon Girl quickly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Zhou Yi returned to find Bi Ji and Wang Qiu'er still sound asleep. He gently placed them together and lay down to catch some rest himself.
However, Zhou Yi didn't actually sleep.
His consciousness turned toward the rewards related to Little Dragon Girl.
"Reward One: A bottle of Supreme Foundation Establishment Pills (10 pills)."
"Reward Two: A million-year Soul Ring (Soul Skill randomly assigned)."
"Reward Three: A fully mastered Huangdi Inner Scripture (a dual cultivation secret technique)."
"Hiss! As expected of Little Dragon Girl—these rewards are incredible!"
Zhou Yi's eyes lit up, particularly at the last reward. It was exactly what he needed at the moment.
"Claim rewards!"
Overjoyed, Zhou Yi could hardly contain his excitement.
The Supreme Foundation Establishment Pills weren't for cultivating Immortality but rather served as the foundation for martial arts. While he had no personal need for them, they could be used by his children.
The million-year Soul Ring was integrated into his first martial soul, the Exterminate Immortal Sword, granting him a divine ability—Exterminate Immortal Sword Qi.
When this sword energy was unleashed, even gods and immortals would perish.
"Impressive!"
Zhou Yi gave a thumbs-up.
What pleased him the most, however, was the Huangdi Inner Scripture. This secret technique contained countless methods for cultivation that not only brought mutual joy but also significantly accelerated the improvement of cultivation realms.
It even allowed the participants to fully experience and comprehend each other's martial insights, achieving a sublime unity of body and soul.
"Amazing!"
Zhou Yi's heart burned with passion as he glanced at the alluring Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, in his arms. Unable to resist, he acted.
"Hmmph."
Bi Ji woke up startled.
"Husband..."
Bi Ji looked at Zhou Yi, the uninvited troublemaker, with a gaze full of grievance and whispered:
"Husband, you're hurting me!"
"Bi Ji, I'll teach you an unparalleled divine technique and help you improve your cultivation as compensation. What do you say?"
Holding his beloved, Zhou Yi whispered into her ear while transmitting the Huangdi Inner Scripture to her with his divine sense.
"You liar!"
Bi Ji initially thought she was receiving an extraordinary technique, but after seeing the cultivation method, her face turned red with embarrassment, and she rebuked him with a mix of shyness and indignation.
"This isn't compensation—you're just finding new ways to bully me!"
"Let's give it a try. You'll see."
Despite her complaints, Bi Ji complied with Zhou Yi's guidance.
Soon, Bi Ji discovered the profound wonders of this technique.
It truly did enhance her cultivation.
She could even directly perceive Zhou Yi's martial insights, rapidly advancing her understanding of martial arts. Her cultivation surged by leaps and bounds.
At this moment, anyone daring to stop her from practicing would face her wrath.
"Truly divine!"
In the following days, Zhou Yi found himself preoccupied with "cultivating" alongside Little Dragon Girl, Gu Yuena, Liu Erlong, and the others. His schedule was packed.
The women had all experienced the benefits of this technique.
Cultivating with Zhou Yi was far more effective than laboring through solitary practice.
Who wouldn't take a shortcut when given the chance?
Even Zhou Yi himself wasn't sure whether the Huangdi Inner Scripture was a blessing or a curse.
He simply couldn't keep up.
Time passed swiftly.
Soon, Bai Xiuxiu, Sea Maiden Douluo, and Xiao Bai were all nearing their due dates.
On this day, Zhou Yi waited outside Bai Xiuxiu's birthing chamber. Despite this not being his first time becoming a father, his heart was still brimming with anticipation.
