have forced myself to remember that I am a pregnant woman. I put on a T-shirt and slim velvet sweatpants, and even threw my high heels aside, only wearing casual shoes."Ms. Hou, who are these people..."The Way of Heaven is as it always has been."

"...Gone"

"Didn't we just say those four words" Jiang Qiyun frowned in displeasure. "You're not pregnant, how did you become stupid"

I haven't become stupid! It's just that what I've seen and heard these past few days has left me a little overwhelmed. I'm a bit confused for the moment.

"That is to say, the changes in this world are still within a certain range and will not have too much impact on the six realms." Jiang Qiyun explained kindly.

"...The impact on my family has been considerable." I muttered under my breath.

"As for your family…" Jiang Qiyun smiled. "There's no harm in owing Yin Suxue a favor."

"Sigh... it's not that I want to be petty, but what just happened—I had no idea how to handle it alone. Thankfully, the seven and eight gods came to my aid... And—"

I really don't want to exaggerate.

Those dilapidated, burned-out courtyards, houses, and even the airstrip had all been his doing.

“I didn't call them here. They just happened to be present at the old man's training session. They overheard my conversation with the old man, and since they came down from the celestial realm themselves, fearing being scolded alone, they brought along Luohu as well. The old man simply turned a blind eye.” Jiang Qiyun snorted coldly.

Of course, it's highly unlikely that Jiang Qiyun would ask Ji Dou to help him fight.

“As it was still early, I went to talk with the Mirage Dragon, telling it about the things it had left behind in the world. Thus, it followed me down to the mortal realm.”

"To host a dragon in this lake Wouldn't that be a bit rude" I facepalmed, speechless.

"Hmph, you dare have your little building receive me You don't find this disrespectful" Jiang Qiyun reached out and pinched my chin.

He was originally leaning against the couch, and I was sitting in front of him. At that moment, when he pulled me over, I became holding his chest with both hands, my whole body pressing against him.

...My waist is a little sore like this.

"That's different, though. A true dragon has descended! He is a honored guest." I hurriedly explained, thinking to myself that my humble abode was truly unworthy of his presence.

Is it because you think my room is too small and the bed is too small

"Oh So I'm not a distinguished guest anymore" Jiang Qiyun deliberately picked a fight.

"Yes, yes, yes. You are... my husband."

Jiang Qiyun now occasionally "gives me a hard time," not because he's really angry, but because he wants to be closer.

Of course, the Emperor wouldn't stoop to begging for hugs, cuddles, or affection. So, I need to be a little "self-aware."

Sometimes, thinking about it, his initial irritability and coldness towards me was probably because he needed the Emperor to take the initiative.

But he didn't know, nor was he willing to take the initiative, leaving him with frustration and nowhere to vent it.

We've spent thousands of nights together, familiar with each other's breaths and movements. Even the weight of a single breath can reveal each other's emotions.

The intimate moments between the sheets have become so natural, I even find myself embarrassed by our initial awkwardness and stiffness.

But this wasn't just my problem, he was initially rough and clumsy about things between a husband and wife, like it was just a routine.

There are many things to do at home, so we don't have much time to be intimate.

Dawn broke, a light snowfall on this winter day woke me up.

When did I fall asleep in Jiang Qiyun's arms

Snowflakes were falling outside, and I shivered as I dressed. I should have taken it off earlier; it's too much trouble to put on now...

Jiang Qiyun raised his eyes and glanced at me, instructing, “The Shen family should also seal the mountain for cultivation and recall all disciples who are outside.”

"Oh... alright." I hurried out.

In the main hall, disciples gradually woke up one by one, each bewildered as to what had happened.

I'll call the head steward first and explain everything to him in detail. Then, I'll have the head steward go and explain things to the disciples and arrange for the repairs.

I still have to attend to the great deities who have descended upon my home.

Ji Du and Luohou were playing chess under the flower hall. I had slept for such a short time, they hadn't even finished a game. Seeing me appear, they seemed rather annoyed that I was in their way.

"Your place is too small, you can't even swing a sword here." Ji Dou spoke first, "I've already given up!"

Yes, yes, yes... Thank you for not demolishing the entire Shen family.

A disciple of the Shen family brought a small brazier of fine tea, which I warmed beside their chess table.

The faint, soft sounds of "pu-ru-lu," along with the aroma of brewed tea, caused Luohu Xingjun to raise an eyebrow.

"This place, where the Shen family resides, is already a blessed land of mountains and waters. Now with a true dragon hidden in the lake, it will become an even better place for cultivation." Luohou Xingjun gazed at the chessboard and said calmly.

"...but now it's been destroyed halfway, and repairs will take who knows how long." I sighed.

"Repairs" Ji Du looked up from the chessboard, staring at me blankly. "Is this something that troubles you Yin Su Bai will handle the aftermath."

What

What are you kidding The Demon Lord would clean up after himself

I don't quite believe this, but I'm a little curious and want to hear what other people say about the Demon Lord.

"Have you two met before" I asked curiously.

All were taken aback: "Dealing with Fighting"

"It seems like all of [Character's name]'s friendships started with a fight."

“Speaking of fighting… when was the last time” Keito pinched his chin, falling into deep thought.

"Eight hundred years ago, perhaps," Luo Hu Xingjun said faintly.

Luo Hou Xingjun and Ji Dou have very different personalities. He appears cold and serene, sitting silently as if a faint aura surrounds even his hair.

“But Yin Su Bai is the尊 of the demon world. He only fought me to stop me from fighting with the demon gods. Sometimes, when a great tribulation year comes, the six realms intersect too much, and there are bound to be breaches… I don't really hate him.” Ji Dou shrugged.

"If you really fought him, would you be his match You can't even beat the Southern Heaven Demon Emperor," Luo Hu poured cold water on him.

His killing intent surged, and with a sudden burst of force, his two fingers crushed the chess piece between them. His gaze was fixed menacingly on Luohu, as if warning him not to speak out of turn.

What, what's wrong... Is this because of a feud with the Southern Heavenly Demon Emperor

Lord Luo Hu calmly lifted his eyelids: "During Yin Su Bai's reign as the ruler of the demon realm, there weren't any major issues. The Great Emperor Yuan Huang and the High God Xuan Qiong were very satisfied with him. His strategic vision is much stronger than yours. Unlike you, who only know how to fight."

"Uh... You guys aren't drinking tea It's cooled down." I quickly changed the subject, afraid that if Jade Emperor wasn't happy, he'd smash the chessboard.

However, fortunately, the celestial official Ji Dou Xingjun was relatively obedient to Luo Hu Xingjun. Although he was angry, he didn't argue with Luo Hu Xingjun.

"He didn't come out from the space crevices yesterday, precisely to avoid the clash of celestial and demonic auras, which could negatively impact mortal life," Luo Hu said. "Besides, there were some small things tidying up those broken bricks and tiles in your backyard until dawn."

"What do you mean, 'little thing'" I asked, confused.g Qiyun raised his hand and pinched it once, his slender fingers were very flexible, I was envious. Such a complex pinch, many times I need to use both hands to pinch it out, short arms are really hea...
