311 As Long As You’re Bold Enough, You Can Even Make Demons Take Maternity Leave Too
There was a side hall specially used to entertain guests. It was surrounded by pavilions, gardens, and waterside pavilions. The environment was elegant and beautiful. There were also beautiful palace maids serving by the side while enjoying the luxury and grandeur of the palace.
This was the first time Song Shi had come to the palace of this world. He could not help but take a few more glances and thought to himself that it was extravagant.
The ground here was paved with high-quality jade, and the materials used to build the house were precious wood. The former Song Family Manor paled in comparison, as if they were beggars.
“Senior Sheng Ming, Brother Chen, if there’s anything, feel free to instruct the palace maids. I still have to preside over the court affairs. I’ll take my leave first.”
Seeing Qian Wuji leave in a hurry, Song Shi was suspicious. “Are these guys so busy? Why don’t you, a Soul Transformation cultivator, entertain them more?”
Venerable Sheng Ming said indifferently, “There are internal and external problems in Great Qian right now. It’s normal to be busy. But what are you trying to do by pretending to be Kong’er?”
“That’s none of your business. You just have to listen to me.”
Song Shi could not be bothered to say anything else. He was not prepared to bring Sheng Ming to investigate the Heavenly Prison. Instead, he left him here to guard the place.
He chose a room and walked in, restoring his original appearance. He casually threw out a few array flags to hide his fluctuations to avoid being spied on.
After doing this, he made a hand seal and began to tamper with the palace’s array.
As the nest of the royal family of Great Qian, the arrays in the palace were very complicated. They had reached the sixth-grade and exceeded the standard of the normal Array Formations in this world.
Song Shi could not help but rejoice. “Fortunately, I’m not too rash. This array formation can even kill Soul Transformation cultivators. It’s not easy to save Xiaoqin indeed.”
It was true that he couldn’t be killed, but if he really barged in, he probably wouldn’t even be able to enter the Heavenly Prison. He would be killed countless times outside. At that time, if he really angered the royal family, he wouldn’t be able to do anything if they directly killed Bai Xiaoqin.
Bai Yu’er, who had also returned to her original appearance, chimed in. “These dynasties have been established for thousands of years. Every generation will strengthen the Array Formations here. That’s why I said that the Imperial City is dangerous. It’s really comparable to those forbidden grounds and this doesn’t include even the protection of the Numinous treasures yet.”
“Their foundation is indeed deep. Those sects can’t compare to him.”
Song Shi nodded. “But give me some time. I can still secretly control this array formation after I learn.”
Back then, he had been killed many times by Array Formations of the same level in the forbidden area of the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. Song Shi had become a sixth-grade Array Formation Master and his knowledge was enough to deal with the Array Formations here. However, it would take some time.
Half a day later, when the sky was about to turn dark, Song Shi put down his hand and retracted his Nomological power. He smiled confidently. “I’ve already broken most of the Array Formations here. I can enter and exit without anyone noticing now.”
Bai Yu’er stood at the side and said in admiration, “Young Master is really an all-rounder. There’s nothing you can’t do.”
“Who said that? I don’t know how to have children.”
Song Shi denied it.
“I can help you.”
Bai Yu’er blushed. Her shy look was especially tempting.
When Song Shi saw her beauty, he couldn’t help but become excited. He chuckled and said, “Sure, but I wonder if we can give birth to children since we are of different species.”
He was very curious about how demons gave birth to children with humans. Bai Yu’er was considered to have experience, so he did not mind giving it a try.
Although this woman can be considered his remarried wife, he had heard of many people remarrying in his previous life and Bai Yu’er was considered quite good in that aspect. Hence he could accept it and did not need to care about anything. Moreover, he only treated her as a sleeping partner.
The only concern was that he had killed this woman’s child before, but she was actually willing to give birth to a child for him. He could not understand this kind of thinking.
Because of her different mindset and thinking, he didn’t really want the other party to really give birth to his child.
Bai Yu’er shook her head. “It’s very difficult. It’s far more difficult than giving human powerhouses working together to give birth.”
“Oh.”
Song Shi was even more curious about how Bai Yu’er and Lu Bingxuan had given birth.
In the middle of the night, Song Shi finally could not help but say to Bai Yu’er, who was under his control, “I have a question. Even if I control you, I still killed your son. Why don’t you hate me at all? Why do you still want to have a child with me?”
“I’m not human. Why should I hate Young Master?”
Bai Yu’er found it strange and voiced her thoughts. “Besides, that child was born from a human woman’s stomach after Lu Bingxuan tricked me into giving birth to my essence and stole them away. He said that he wanted to nurture some descendant with the bloodline of the demon race. Our Snake Clan doesn’t care much about the eggs we lay. Moreover my feelings were deceived by him, so I didn’t care that he took my eggs. In the end, he really succeeded.”
Song Shi exclaimed, “Isn’t that a test tube baby?”
“What tube?”
Bai Yu’er did not understand.
“It’s a kind of vessel to birth a baby, similar to a Furnace. Didn’t you and Lu Bingxuan’s use a woman’s stomach to conceive your child?”
“Oh, so that’s what it means.”
Bai Yu’er was enlightened. “No wonder Lu Bingxuan said that it would be easier to nurture an outstanding demon like this back then. However, I don’t think it was very successful. That child’s personality was eccentric and extreme. I didn’t even manage to protect him with a wisp of my Soul Clone.”
When Song Shi heard this, he said, “Is this kind of thing common?”
“I’m not sure. I only know that someone from the Sky Demon Cult did this. Back then, after realizing that Lu Bingxuan was only using me, I didn’t interact with them anymore. I don’t know if they continued to do these things.”
Bai Yu’er shook her head.
“It would appear that your son is most likely not the only test subject.”
Song Shi frowned. He felt that it wasn’t good for those Sky Demon Cult fellows to cross-breed with demons.
“Young Master, Yu’er really doesn’t have any other intentions. I just admire Young Master’s ability. I want to give birth to your child so that I can have a descendant to accompany me in the future.”
Bai Yu’er thought that Song Shi was suspecting that she had ulterior motives and explained uneasily.
“You’re thinking too much. I’m just curious. As for having a child with you, let’s leave it to fate.”
Song Shi did not care. He was already immortal. In fact, he even doubted if he could give birth.
If that was possible, it would be interesting. He would have to take care of his child when they are older in the future?
He was a little speechless just thinking about it.
“Then Young Master, do to me as you wish. It’s difficult for demons and humans to produce offspring to begin with, especially when their cultivation levels get higher. As one’s cultivation level rises, the difficulty of their ability to produce offspring will increase. Moreover given our two different species, the difficulty of producing offspring between us will increase exponentially. We can only rely on luck and the number of times we try by then.”
Bai Yu’er said seriously.
“Well… Alright.”
Song Shi was also prepared to give it a try.
Amongst his women, Bai Xiaoqin was a ghost. It was impossible for her to give birth to his child.
As for Liu Ruxue, who he had not seen for a long time, her cultivation level was too low compared to him. After thinking about it, he felt that this demonic woman beside him was the most suitable.
Bai Yu’er was overjoyed and promised, “Young Master, if I can really give birth to children, I will definitely raise them personally. I won’t ignore them like before.”
“…”
Song Shi felt more and more like he was in a dream. Why was he so bold? She was a demon and yet he actually wanted to impregnate her.
“As expected, as long as one is bold enough, he can even make a demon take maternity leave…”
He muttered and suddenly remembered something important.
He still had to save Bai Xiaoqin!
Releasing Bai Yu’er, Song Shi said, “It’s late. Let’s hurry up and investigate the Heavenly Prison.”
He formed a seal and pointed at the ground. The Array Formation Power was mobilized, and circles of ripples appeared on the ground. He jumped off the bed, and as if a stream of water had entered, with a wave of fluctuation, he directly fused into it.
