127: Chapter 127 Double Happiness

On the plaza of Nirvana Palace, as Xu Chen hung up that hot-to-the-touch Jade Slip, the surrounding air seemed to freeze for an instant, followed by an even crazier uproar.

"Two... two?"

The Dragon Clan Elders, who had just been immersed in the joy of their Empress "having an heir," now widened their eyes like bulls, looking in disbelief at Feng Jiuyou, who had been snuggling on Xu Chen's right side, usually as cold and aloof as a ten-thousand-year iceberg.

I saw this Divine Phoenix Clan Chief, currently lowering her head, one hand gently stroking her lower abdomen, a never-before-seen maternal radiance hanging on her usually cold and beautiful face.

"Sister Jiuyou, you also..."

Although Long Aoxue had heard Xu Chen's words earlier, she still couldn't help but want to confirm it again. She reached out her finger and cautiously poked Feng Jiuyou's waist.

"Did it really take?"

"Mm."

Feng Jiuyou raised her head; although her cheeks were slightly flushed, the pride in her eyes remained undiminished. She gently straightened her back, as if displaying some rare treasure.

"Husband said it is also Mythical Grade."

"And..."

Feng Jiuyou's lips curled up slightly as she glanced at Long Aoxue.

"My child will definitely be better behaved than yours."

"Nonsense! Mine will definitely be a War God!"

Although the two women were still bickering, the tense, sword-drawing atmosphere had long since vanished, replaced by a wondrous tacit understanding called "expectant mothers."

Just then.

【Ding!】

In Xu Chen's mind, that pleasant System notification sounded again.

Earlier, because he was focused on announcing the good news to the family, he hadn't had time to carefully check the rewards regarding Feng Jiuyou. Now that he was free, the System very considerately began the second round of settlement.

Boom!

Another massive stream of information surged in.

Xu Chen only felt the Qi and blood in his body instantly boil; within his originally purple Grandmist Qi and blood, a trace of golden divinity had been added.

If the previous "True Dragon Treasure Technique" gave him ultimate attack power, then the current "Divine Phoenix Undying Technique" gave him the most perverted survival ability.

The strongest spear and the strongest shield were now gathered in one body!

"Hoo..."

Xu Chen exhaled a breath of turbid air, a sharp light exploding in his eyes.

Now, although his Realm was still at the Late Stage of Semi-Saint, if he exhausted all his trump cards, even if facing a true Saint Realm powerhouse, he would dare to confront them head-on, or even... kill them!

"Congratulations... Consort?"

Just as Xu Chen was immersed in the pleasure of his increased power, a trembling voice sounded from the side.

That Grand Elder of the Divine Phoenix Clan, leading a group of Divine Phoenix Clan high-level officials, was looking at him longingly, then looked at Feng Jiuyou, the expression on their faces both expectant and nervous, like prisoners waiting for a verdict.

They had heard clearly just now.

The Dragon Clan had one.

What about their side?

The Clan Chief had worked hard all night last night!

"Why are you looking at me?"

Xu Chen retracted his aura, pointing at Feng Jiuyou beside him in a great mood.

"Go ask your Clan Chief."

Swish!

Thousands of gazes instantly focused on Feng Jiuyou.

Feng Jiuyou took a deep breath, trying hard to maintain the dignity of a Clan Chief. She slowly stood up, her gaze sweeping over those clansmen who had followed her for tens of thousands of years and were desperate watching the clan wither day by day.

"Why are you pulling such long faces?"

Feng Jiuyou's cold voice spread across the entire plaza, but this time, there was a hint of warmth in her voice.

"The Divine Phoenix Clan will not die."

She reached out her hand, and a mass of pure golden Nirvana Fire ignited in her palm. In the center of that flame, a faint yet tenacious aura of new life could be vaguely seen pulsing.

"This seat also has one."

"The Divine Phoenix Clan has an heir."

"Waa——!!!"

That eldest and usually most steady Grand Elder actually sat down on the ground, wailing like a child.

"The Heavens have eyes! The Heavens have eyes!"

"Thirty thousand years! A full thirty thousand years! My Divine Phoenix Clan has finally seen hope!"

"Wuwuwu... Even if this old woman dies now, I will have the face to see our ancestors!"

With the Grand Elder's breakdown, the entire Divine Phoenix Clan camp instantly became a sea of tears.

That was the despair suppressed for countless ages, completely released at this moment.

Even those usually serious and cold female guards were now red-eyed, excitedly hugging each other.

Watching this scene, the Dragon Clan members nearby were all moved.

Although the two clans had fought for so many years, as fellow top-tier Divine Beast clans, they understood the fear of "Bloodline extinction" all too well.

"Hmph, look how excited they are."

Although Long Aoxue was stubborn, she still couldn't help but take out a handful of top-grade spirit fruits brought from the Dragon Palace from her storage ring and handed them to a little Divine Phoenix Clan maid nearby who was crying until she was about to faint.

"Take it and eat, stop crying, it's so noisy."

Just when the two clans were overjoyed and the atmosphere was harmoniously unreal.

Hum!

A sudden anomaly occurred.

At Long Aoxue's and Feng Jiuyou's lower abdomens, light suddenly shone at the same time.

On one side was brilliant silver divine radiance, as if containing endless mysteries of the Void Realm.

On the other side was scorching golden flame, emitting the sacred aura of Nirvana Rebirth.

These two rays of light did not repel each other; instead, they were like two magnets attracting each other, intertwining and wrapping around each other in the air, finally forming a perfect Taiji circle, enveloping the two mothers within it.

"This... what is this?"

Long Aoxue looked in surprise at the band of light connecting her belly to Feng Jiuyou's. She could clearly feel a wondrous fluctuation passing between the two of them.

It was as if... the two children were greeting each other across the air?

"Symbiotic Bond."

Xu Chen watched this scene, a System notification appearing in his mind.

He stepped forward, holding Long Aoxue's hand with his left and Feng Jiuyou's hand with his right, acting as the medium for that connection.

"This is called 'Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness'."

Xu Chen looked at the two women, his eyes full of smiles.

"Because you were both impregnated at the same time, and the father is the same person, and your Physiques happen to be one Yin and one Yang, one Dragon and one Phoenix."

"Therefore, these two little ones have formed a special 'twin' relationship in the dark."

"Although they were not born of the same mother, their Souls and Bloodlines are connected."

"In other words..."

Xu Chen paused, his tone becoming somewhat playful.

"From today on, you two are not only sisters, but also 'in-laws'."

"These two children are destined to support each other in the future, inseparable as Meng and Jiao."

"Ah?"

Long Aoxue and Feng Jiuyou looked at each other, and at the same time, they both let out a disgusted "Ew."

"Who wants to be in-laws with this ragged chicken/long worm?"

But disgust aside, looking at that band of light connecting them and feeling that warmth of Bloodline connection, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curl up slightly.

They had fought for thirty thousand years.

Unexpectedly, in the end, they had achieved a true "reconciliation" in this way.

"Alright, stop being stubborn."

Xu Chen smiled and pulled the two women into his embrace, watching the setting sun on the horizon, his heart full of peace and satisfaction.
