Even if sheâs a Celestial Rank cultivator, Bai Yan still requires rest like any ordinary person if theyâre tired. Sure, going for several months as a practitioner wasnât a big deal if they absorbed the natural energy in the air, but that would only alleviate the bodyâs hunger and fatigue for an undetermined period of time. In the end, everything in existence requires rest no matter their strength or power.
âItâs been like that for a while already?â Nervously grabbing his wifeâs hand, Di Cangâs expression was filled with unease: âAre you sick? Do you want me to check your pulse for a checkup?â
Bai Yan couldnât take it anymore and bursts out a chuckle at that frantic appearance: âAre you silly or something? Us cultivators are physically strong and would rarely get sick. Ever since I broke through to the King Rank several years ago, I have never gotten sick again.â
Just like how she doesnât need to eat, any virus or bacteria would be incinerated as soon as they come into contact with Bai Yanâs body, hence the reason why ordinary folks would say cultivators looked like gods because of the halo glow coming out of their pores. Whatâs more, this lady was already at the Celestial Rank, a genuine person who have stepped into the realms of what they could call a demi god both in terms of lifespan and strength.
Butâ¦.
Out of consideration for Di Cangâs worried heart, she nevertheless sighed and began to examine her own pulse. Next second later, her face froze like sheâs seen a ghost.
âWhatâs wrong?â Finding the increasingly tenseness in the air, the demon king gulped and asked again like he couldnât control his own tongue. Heâs trembling and downright fearful of what the final answer would be. âPlease, Yan Yan, are you okay? You must tell me if you are sick.â
Inhaling deeply, Bai Yan took a moment to gather her composure after closing those eyes. Then with a trembling voice of her own: âIâm⦠Iâm pregnantâ¦â
Yes, during the recent days, sheâs been incapable of focusing entirely like how she used to in the past. Whether it be making a breakthrough, or refining the Dan pills back at the Holy Land, everything was done with a sense of reluctance due to her mood.
Bai Yan assumed it was due to the fatigue of course, she did run around a lot recently. What she didnât expect though was this news of herself being pregnantâ¦.
To be clear, itâs not that this woman was being careless about her own health. During the first pregnancy when she carried Bai Xiachen in her tummy, Bai Yan would always feel stuffy and with a loss of appetite. Now this time thereâs none of that so of course she wouldnât think in that direction.
âWhat did you just say?â Di Cang didnât move, only standing there like a statue while his expression produced all sorts of colors like a rainbow.
Ecstatic?
Excitement?
Disbelief?
Regardless of what his emotions were over this explosive news, the demon king only knew one thing, and that was heâs going to be a father again!
He couldnât be around during his wifeâs first pregnancy, but now he has a chance to make it for it!
Bai Yan suddenly pats her own forehead with an upset face: âIâm already three months into my pregnancy. If I match it up with the timing, it should be our first night together. Thank goodness I was able to withstand the lightning strikes when I made a breakthrough several days ago, otherwise this child wouldâve been hurtâ¦.â If she had known about her own pregnancy then this lady wouldâve made preparations ahead of time so the baby doesnât get effected.
While the soon to be mother of a second child felt annoyed at her own carelessness, the father in this case only stood there with a goofy grin on that face. Itâs quite apparent this man still hasnât come back to his senses.
âMother,â itâs then Bai Xiachen pokes his little head over, âam I going to have a little sister?â
Bai Yan knocks the boyâs head with her knuckle: âAnd how do you know itâs going to be a sister?â
âIâve told you before already. I had a dream Mother, I dreamt about my little sister. Although I didnât get a good look, butâ¦. Iâm certain its my sister, a lovely and sensible sister. Sheâs going to be the most beautiful little princess in the world.â
