387: Chapter 387 Double Happiness! The Crystallization of Shadow and Pure Yin is Born

Xu Chen casually tossed the seal into his Storage Ring and turned to walk towards Su Qingge and the other harem beauties waiting not far away.

"Wives, wait for me obediently at home."

Xu Chen blinked.

"Your husband is going to the Myriad Realms Battlefield to pick up a batch of goods, and I'll be back very soon."

Su Qingge looked at her husband's unserious demeanor, and the slight worry that had been stirred up by the starry sky rift instantly vanished. She covered her lips with a gentle smile, just about to give a few words of instruction, when a hurried sound of breaking air suddenly came from behind the main plaza.

The personal maid, Xiaotao, came galloping on a Flying Sword, covered in sweat. She almost lost her footing when she landed, and her voice was filled with irrepressible excitement.

"Young Lord! Quick! Go to the backyard! Madam Mo and Madam Hua... they've both gone into labor simultaneously!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the playful, wicked smile on Xu Chen's face instantly froze, replaced by an urgency mixed with ecstasy and nervousness.

"They're giving birth already?!"

"Qingge, you settle Qingyun and Youyou first, I'm going to the delivery room to take a look!"

Before the words had even faded, his figure had already turned into a streak of light.

He didn't even have time to use the Law of Space, relying directly on his pure Physical Body to burst forth with terrifying speed as he streaked toward the depths of the harem.

Night had quietly fallen.

Above the Xu Family harem, the sky was divided by two completely different phenomena.

The left side of the firmament was as dark as ink, with strands of the Law of Shadows turning into invisible blades, shuttling silently through the Void Realm, as if they could devour even light; the night sky on the right was permeated with a hazy, powdery white mist, as the Pure Yin Qi condensed into ice lotuses that were budding, emitting a refreshing and fragrant scent.

Two completely different Origins of Law intertwined and swirled above the palace, causing the surrounding Spiritual Qi to churn violently.

Xu Chen landed outside the delivery room courtyard and strode up the steps.

Several sweat-drenched midwives were moving in and out with hot water, and upon seeing Xu Chen arrive, they all stopped to prepare to salute.

"No need, how is the situation inside?" Xu Chen waved his hand casually, and a gentle force lifted the midwives up.

"Replying to the Young Lord, the two Madams' fetal energy has activated at the same time, and because the two fetuses' Origin talents are too astonishing, the Madams are under great pressure..." The lead midwife's voice was tight, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

Xu Chen frowned. Without any regard for the rule that blood should not be seen in a delivery room, he pushed open the door and strode inside.

The delivery room was divided into east and west chambers, separated in the middle by a screen of shark silk. The air was filled with a faint smell of blood and a rich scent of Spirit Medicine.

Xu Chen first walked toward the couch on the east side.

Hua Jieyu's long hair was soaked with sweat, sticking messily to her fair cheeks.

Those fox eyes, which were usually captivating and seemed to be able to drip water, were tightly closed at this moment, and her red lips were bitten to the point of bleeding. Pure Yin Qi was running amok around her body without control, causing a layer of frost to form around the couch.

"Young Lord... why have you come in..." Hua Jieyu sensed the familiar aura and barely opened her eyes, her tone filled with weakness and coquettishness.

"If I don't come in, should I just wait outside?" Xu Chen stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed without hesitation, his large hand grasping her cold little hand.

A continuous stream of Hongmeng Creation Qi poured into Hua Jieyu's body from his palm. That manic Pure Yin Qi met the Hongmeng Purple Qi, like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun, becoming docile and obedient, flowing along her Meridians back to her Dantian.

Hua Jieyu's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and feeling the warmth from his palm, her eyes reddened slightly: "This servant thought... this time I would lose half my life."

Xu Chen raised his other hand, gently wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with his sleeve, and lowered his head to kiss her sweat-covered cheek: "With me here, no one can take your life. Save some strength and obediently give birth to the child."

After soothing Hua Jieyu, Xu Chen bypassed the shark silk screen and came to the west couch.

Compared to the commotion on Hua Jieyu's side, Mo Han's side was heartbreakingly quiet.

This former top assassin still maintained an astonishing level of endurance even when facing the pain of tearing flesh and bone during childbirth. She gripped the quilt tightly with both hands, without making a sound, only her rapid breathing betrayed the pain she was enduring at this moment.

Strands of the Law of Shadows spilled out from her body, and even the surrounding light was slightly distorted.

Xu Chen walked to the bedside, his heart softening involuntarily. He didn't speak, just leaned over, pried open Mo Han's hands that were tightly clutching the quilt, and wrapped them in his own hands.

Mo Han's eyes, which had always been like still water, trembled slightly as she looked up at the man in front of her.

"If it hurts, scream it out. There are no outsiders here, only your husband." Xu Chen's voice was very soft, for fear of disturbing her.

Mo Han pursed her pale lips and shook her head. Accustomed to a life of licking blood on the edge of a blade, she had never known what it was to cry out in pain; she only knew how to swallow all her vulnerability.

Xu Chen sighed softly, and Hongmeng Creation Qi flowed through his fingertips into her limbs and bones, protecting her heart Meridians. He leaned down and pressed his warm lips to Mo Han's cold forehead, remaining there for a long time.

"In front of me, you don't need to be that cold-blooded shadow. You are my, Xu Chen's, wife, and the mother of my children."

The man's breath hit her cheek, carrying a power that could dispel all cold and fear. Mo Han stared blankly at Xu Chen's profile, which was close at hand, and the layer of ice at the bottom of her eyes shattered silently.

A crystal-clear tear fell from the corner of her eye and disappeared into the pillow.

This was the first time she had shed tears since she had memories. Not because of pain, but because of the warmth that filled her chest, called "home."

"Young Lord..." Mo Han held Xu Chen's hand back, her voice hoarse, with a hint of imperceptible choking, "With the Young Lord accompanying me, I am not in pain."

Time passed slowly amidst the heavy breathing.

Xu Chen sat in the middle of the two chambers, holding the hands of both women, using his profound Origin of the Great Saint Realm to escort them. The Hongmeng Purple Qi turned into an indestructible bridge, connecting the three of them.

As the night deepened, the phenomena in the high sky climbed to its peak.

The Law of Shadows turned into the phantom of a black dagger tearing through the long night, while the Pure Yin Qi condensed into a bright, flawless full moon. One black and one white, they shone on each other above the Xu Family, illuminating the entire Di Prefecture.

With two loud cries sounding almost simultaneously, the phenomena in the sky turned into two streams of light, like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, and escaped into the delivery room respectively.

"They're born! Young Lord, both Madams have given birth!" The midwives' pleasantly surprised shouts broke the tension in the delivery room.

Xu Chen let out a long breath, his tense nerves finally relaxing.

A silent ripple stirred deep in his mind. A pale blue, silent panel appeared automatically, and lines of golden text scrolled down like a waterfall.

"[Detected successful childbirth of targets meeting the criteria.]"

"[Offspring 1: shadow saint fetus (Innate compatibility with the Dao of Assassination).]"

"[Offspring 2: Pure Yin Spirit Fetus (Born with Pure Yin Bones).]"

"[Reward issued: One portion of top-tier Shadow Assassin Origin.]"

"[Reward issued: One Extreme Dao Weapon Embryo.]"

"[Reward issued: Great Saint Realm cultivation base feedback.]"

Xu Chen glanced at the panel, only feeling that the exhausted Spiritual Qi in his body was instantly replenished.

A profound comprehension of the Law of Shadows was automatically engraved deep in his mind, as if he were born proficient in all the assassination and stealth techniques in the world.

Within his Divine Soul, a simple, unadorned, and unsharpened weapon prototype floated quietly, emitting an Extreme Dao pressure capable of splitting the Void Realm.

He didn't pay too much attention to those generous rewards, his gaze falling on the two women on the bed from beginning to end.

The midwives deftly cleaned the two babies, wrapped them in soft Spirit Brocade, and brought them over.

Xu Chen stood up, looked down at the two little ones who were closing their eyes and blowing bubbles, and a gentle smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. He didn't immediately hold the children, but instead ordered the midwives to place the babies beside Mo Han and Hua Jieyu respectively.

"You have worked hard." Xu Chen walked to the couch and stroked Hua Jieyu's long hair, which was soaked with sweat.

Hua Jieyu turned her head to look at the jade-carved baby beside her pillow, and a smile full of maternal brilliance bloomed on her weak face. Those captivating eyes no longer held their usual charm, but had turned into overflowing tenderness.

"As long as it is the Young Lord's child, This servant is willing to suffer a few more times." She whispered, rubbing her cheek gently against Xu Chen's palm.

Xu Chen smiled and turned to look at Mo Han.

Mo Han was staring fixedly at the child beside her.

The baby exuded a faint shadow aura, which was of the same Origin and sect as her. She stretched out a slender finger and poked the baby's tender cheek cautiously, as if she were afraid that she would hurt this fragile little life.

"This dagger, let's leave it for him for self-defense in the future." Mo Han raised her head and took out the short blade from under the pillow that she had always carried with her and had accompanied her in staining with countless blood, her voice carrying an unprecedented softness.

Xu Chen reached out and held her wrist, taking the dagger away: "My child naturally has the Xu Family's Extreme Dao Weapon Embryo to protect the Dao, so there is no need for these things of blades and swords. Your task now is to obediently take care of your body."

Mo Han looked at Xu Chen steadily and nodded seriously.
