From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 114: Chapter 112: Clear Division of Labor (First Update)_1

Mu Huanqing lay in Fang Ren's arms, her face adorned with a bewildered yet blissful smile, her eyes complex as she gazed at her own belly, the excitement in her heart rushing unstoppable to her brain.

"Ah Ran... my emotions are suddenly so complex..." Mu Huanqing murmured.

She had never before felt such excitement and joy. Happiness was overflowing, too abundant to contain. She didn't even know what she should do now, and even the notion of becoming a mother left her feeling flustered and at a loss.

Fang Ren rubbed her head and laughed, "I feel the same."

Mu Huanqing burrowed her face into Fang Ren's chest, her hair rubbing against him continuously, like a coquettish little girl, her extraordinarily beautiful face still wearing a blissful smile: "I'm going to be a mother, I'm so nervous..."

"Silly girl, there are still ten months of pregnancy to go."

Fang Ren caressed her face, his feelings just as complex.

He was both happy and thrilled, but amid the flood of happiness, he also worried about the future.

Ten months meant that Mu Huanqing would give birth before he had become strong enough, and the difficulties they would face at that time were bound to be extremely arduous.

Mu Huanqing touched her belly, saying with a face full of happiness, "Do you think it will be a boy or a girl?"

"Qing'er, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"

"It's our child, Ah Ran, whether a boy or a girl, I will surely love them."

...

The two of them chatted about happy topics for a long while until Fang Ren eventually had to bring up the worries at hand, holding Mu Huanqing in his arms, he said, "But in a few months, when everyone knows about Qing'er's pregnancy, what shall we do then..."

Mu Huanqing leaned back to look at him, reached out to touch his hair and said: "Don't worry, Ah Ran, I'll give birth to our child in secret, no one will know."

"When the belly gets big in the later stages of pregnancy, it will surely be impossible to hide," Fang Ren said worriedly.

"You forget, I'm very strong. Even if I'm pregnant, I can still conceal it, and no one will be able to tell," Mu Huanqing said as a cluster of silver light emerged in her hand, before continuing, "Plus, I'm also a formidable Array Master."

With these words, she placed the silver light from her hand onto her belly: "This way, even when the baby is ten months old, no one will notice, and as long as I wear the warrior outfit, it won't show how big my belly is."

"Won't it squeeze the baby?"

"No, the warrior outfit is formed from my True Qi and can freely change shape, and to others, my body won't look any different."

Fang Ren's heart was still filled with complexity as he rubbed Mu Huanqing's head and kissed her lips, saying, "I'm sorry for making it so hard on you, even having to go to battle while pregnant."

"It's not tough. As long as I can create a home with Ah Ran, nothing is too difficult," Mu Huanqing said.

"I won't let you struggle alone." Fang Ren stroked her hair, his expression earnest as he continued, "Once the baby is born, I will take care of everything."

"After the baby is born, of course, daddy has to take care of them. Mommy is busy; she can only come back to see him when she's free," Mu Huanqing said with a smile.

"I'm not talking about taking care of the baby," Fang Ren said. "I mean we two should get married openly and aboveboard, and nobody can object to that."

"Let me take care of that."

"You're on the battlefield every day, limited to what you can encounter."

"Ten thousand tons?"

Fang Ren's eyes twitched involuntarily; the power of the Xuanyang realm was indeed formidable—an ordinary weapon could weigh ten thousand tons.

Wouldn't a forceful chop with such a weight split a mountain in two?

"Then adjust it to one ton for me. The True Qi in my body is explosive, and a heavy weapon can maximize the destructiveness of my attack style," Fang Ren said.

"All right."

Mu Hui casually waved a cluster of silver sparks that landed on the sickle in Fang Ren's hand.

In an instant, the bed beneath Fang Ren began to creak.

He immediately jumped off the bed, twirled the sickle in his hand, feeling the weight was perfect, and then tossed it into his Space Ring.

"Qing'er, I heard that you might attend the global university students' Elixir Competition this time, is that true?" Fang Ren said, looking at Mu Hui.

After recalling for a moment, Mu Hui replied, "Indeed, that's the case."

Hearing her words, Fang Ren laughed and said, "I didn't believe it when I first heard about it. You're so busy, how could your superiors arrange for such a strong warrior like you to look after an elixir competition?"

Mu Hui said, "The main reason is due to the Void Cave Split. The largest piece of the Void Cave is moving towards the Tianjiang East District, which is exactly where the finals of the global university students' Elixir Competition are going to be held.

In order to ensure the safety of the people and the students and to let the elites of the competition witness the terror of the Void Cave, the superiors have decided not to change the competition area. For that reason, I have been assigned to ensure everyone's safety at the venue."

Upon hearing this, Fang Ren immediately scooped her up, holding her aloft in the air with both hands, and laughed, "I'll give you a surprise when the time comes."

"Are you going to take first place, Ah Ran?" Mu Hui pinched his face and smiled, "If you go, then many others won't stand a chance."

"That isn't the surprise I'm going to give you," Fang Ren said.

"The surprise isn't you taking first place?" Mu Hui was taken aback.

"Of course not," Fang Ren said as he set her down and pinched her cheek.

"Then what other surprise could there be?" Mu Hui was puzzled.

"You'll know when the time comes."

Fang Ren then took a small silver box out of his Space Ring and from it, retrieved a pill that sparkled with a violet glow.

"This is! A rank-five Elixir!"

Mu Hui's beautiful eyes suddenly trembled, wearing an expression of shock.

"If I said I made this, would you believe me?"

"How could that be possible... Ah Ran, you're only twenty-two years old," Mu Hui said, shaking her head.

"You actually don't believe me; I must punish you," Fang Ren quipped, taking her hand and placing the purple Elixir in her palm, continuing, "This Elixir I've made is called the Life-preserving Elixir. Its effect is to halt the aging of bones and muscles, and in theory, it can also cease skin aging, but that aspect requires a lot of time to prove.

For now, I only know that it can arrest the aging of the bones and muscles, as for the complexion... theoretically, it can also achieve the effect of eternal youth."
