Chapter 130: Joyous Events Never Cease! Queen Medusa is Pregnant!
"Midwife!"
Seeing this, Gu Fei hurriedly shouted.
As soon as his voice fell, two midwives who had been invited here in advance walked over quickly.
"The Madam is about to give birth!"
The two midwives glanced at Xiao Yixian and immediately began preparing to deliver the baby for her.
To avoid disturbing them, Gu Fei sent Xiao Yixian to the soft bed in the room, then left and waited anxiously outside the house.
"Is Sister Xiao Yixian about to give birth?"
Zi Yan and the others also heard Gu Fei's shout and came to the outside of the Bamboo Building one after another.
"Madam, it's almost time, push!"
"Ah!"
Inside the room, the midwives' loud shouts and the intermittent, painful cries coming from Xiao Yixian constantly tugged at Gu Fei's heartstrings.
He paced back and forth, his heart in a state of turmoil; there was nervousness, anticipation, excitement—all sorts of emotions filled his heart.
"Husband, don't worry too much. Sister Xiao Yixian has long been prepared; everything will go smoothly!" Seeing Gu Fei's reaction, Medusa softly comforted him.
Gu Fei gripped Cai'er's hand tightly, as if the pain at this moment were his own.
"Madam, push a little harder, it's already halfway out!"
"Waa— waa—"
Before long, as a loud, clear cry rang out, Gu Fei's heart finally settled.
"It's born!"
Gu Fei couldn't wait to walk toward the room, but suddenly remembering that he was moving too loudly, he quickly slowed down and gently pushed open the door.
Inside the room, Xiao Yixian was drenched in sweat, her face pale but wearing a sweet smile.
After entering the room, Gu Fei did not go to look at the child first, but went straight to Xiao Yixian.
"Is your body feeling anything unusual?"
What Gu Fei feared most was that Xiao Yixian might encounter some mishap during the birthing process.
Fortunately, that did not happen.
"Take this Pill."
Gu Fei handed the recuperation Pill he had prepared in advance to Xiao Yixian.
The grade of this Pill had impressively reached the eighth rank.
Xiao Yixian took the Pill and felt the pure medicinal properties within it; a flush appeared on her face, and she felt an indescribable sweetness and emotion in her heart—that Gu Fei had come in and cared about her first, not the child.
This moved her deeply, and a tremendous sense of happiness welled up within her.
"Congratulations, Young Master, mother and daughter are both safe."
The midwife congratulated Gu Fei at this moment.
"Mother and daughter... is it a girl?"
"Let me see the child!"
As Gu Fei's voice fell, a maid brought the child over.
Gu Fei took the child and placed her where Xiao Yixian could see her.
In the swaddling clothes, the chubby infant was wailing loudly, her crying voice very resonant.
"Don't cry! Don't cry!"
Gu Fei was somewhat at a loss.
"The child was just born and isn't used to the environment yet; crying is normal..." Xiao Yixian teased with a smile.
"Mm... our daughter, she really looks beautiful, as beautiful as you."
Gu Fei nodded and said happily.
"The child was just born, her eyes haven't even opened yet, how can you tell."
Hearing this, Xiao Yixian said with a playful huff.
Next, the midwife walked out of the room to announce the good news to everyone waiting outside the door.
Cai'er, Zi Yan, Qing Lin, and the others then quietly entered the room.
"Is this Brother Gu Fei's child?" Qing Lin said excitedly upon seeing the baby.
"It's a little girl. I must have looked like this when I was little... but why is she crying so much... she's actually kind of cute."
Zi Yan poked her head in; she had intended to say it was noisy, but her words changed as she kept looking.
She called Xiao Yixian 'sister', so this was her own precious niece!
Is this what it feels like to be an elder? Zi Yan liked and enjoyed this feeling very much.
Cai'er looked at the sweet appearance of Xiao Yixian and Gu Fei and touched her own belly.
She felt that there had been some reactions in her own belly recently too.
It seemed she was also pregnant.
It was just that she hadn't had the chance to tell Gu Fei yet.
"Have you thought of a name for the child?"
Xiao Yixian suddenly asked.
Mentioning a name, Gu Fei had a headache before; he always felt that whatever name he came up with didn't sound good, or didn't meet his expectations.
But now, looking at the sweetly smiling Xiao Yixian before him, he had the answer in his heart.
"This child, let's call her Xianle..."
Gu Fei responded with a smile.
The reason he named his daughter Xiao Xianle was because Xiao Yixian had encountered much misfortune and suffered greatly in her childhood, and only after meeting him was she able to have a period of peace.
He hoped his daughter would be happy for her entire life.
"Xiao Xianle... Le, what a good name!"
Xiao Yixian very much agreed with this name.
The birth of Xiao Xianle added much laughter and joy to the mountain peak.
As Gu Fei's daughter, she naturally received the love and protection of everyone on the mountain peak.
Venerable Tianhuo was even more overflowing with the heart of an elder, almost treating Xiao Xianle as his own granddaughter.
Zi Yan had always been the little one among Gu Fei's group.
Now, with a smaller little one, she did not "get jealous," but instead wanted to give the best of her own things to Xiao Xianle.
Sometimes, when Xiao Yixian was tired from taking care of the child, Zi Yan would step in to take over.
Xiao Xianle also liked to play with Zi Yan, and Xiao Yixian even jealously said that Xiao Xianle seemed to like Zi Yan a bit more.
In the Ancient Realm, Gu Fei's grandfather Gu Lie was also incredibly happy to learn of the birth of his great-granddaughter.
He racked his brains for a long time to prepare a gift for his great-granddaughter, only to find that the only thing he could really offer was his own strength.
Thus, he prepared a very abstract gift.
"Grandfather, you have come."
Upon learning that Gu Lie had arrived, Gu Fei brought Xiao Yixian, who was holding Xiao Xianle, to meet Gu Lie.
"Xiao Xianle, come let your great-grandfather hold you."
Gu Lie revealed a kind smile; although he had tried his best to suppress his aura, even the little bit that permeated the surface made Xiao Xianle feel afraid, and before she even reached Gu Lie's arms, she began to wail loudly.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Xianle. This is your great-grandfather. Great-grandfather loves you very much; in the future, if anyone dares to bully you, just mention your great-grandfather's name."
Gu Fei said this to Xiao Xianle, but how could Xiao Xianle understand?
After adapting for a long time, Xiao Xianle finally settled safely into Gu Lie's arms.
Gu Lie held Xiao Xianle as if she were a precious treasure, fearing that she might bump or scrape herself in his arms; that appearance was vastly different from the usually imposing Black Annihilation King.
"Grandfather has also prepared a gift for you."
As Gu Lie spoke, he reached out a hand, and a Space Jade Slip appeared in his palm.
The gift Gu Lie had prepared for Xiao Xianle was a Space Jade Slip he had refined himself.
Seeing this gift, Gu Fei couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
A Space Jade Slip needs to be crushed to be used; Xiao Xianle had only just opened her eyes, let alone crushing a jade slip, even picking it up would be very difficult.
This Space Jade Slip would likely be gathering dust for a very long time.
"Xiao Xianle, aren't you going to thank your great-grandfather..."
Although he thought this in his heart, Gu Fei still cooperated with Gu Lie to amuse Xiao Xianle.
Xiao Xianle did not understand what the adults were saying, her two pitch-black little eyes looking around everywhere.
"Hahaha, this old man has finally seen four generations under one roof!" Gu Lie laughed heartily, unable to wait to spread this news throughout the Ancient Realm.
The Elders in the Ancient Clan were all very envious of Gu Lie, and one after another urged their own children or grandchildren to hurry up and have children; they couldn't beat Gu Lie in a fight, so they had to beat him in at least one area.
And the happy events on Gu Fei's side were not limited to just this one.
As early as a month ago, Cai'er had sensed the aura of life coming from her womb, but it was very faint at that time, and she was not certain.
But now, she could clearly feel the signs of pregnancy.
"It is time to tell my husband."
As the father of the child, Gu Fei should know the news of her pregnancy as soon as possible.
Cai'er took advantage of the spare time while Gu Fei was taking care of Xiao Xianle to come to his side.
Gu Fei understood Cai'er very well.
One look at the expression on her face at this moment, and he knew she had something to tell him.
"What is it?"
Gu Fei asked with concern, walking toward Cai'er and pulling her into his arms.
Cai'er looked at Gu Fei affectionately, and after hesitating for a moment, said: "I am pregnant."
Gu Fei...
"Double happiness!"
After the silence, what greeted Cai'er was Gu Fei's surprise; Gu Fei had not expected that just after having Xiao Xianle, Cai'er would have a reaction here so soon.
Was his own ability too strong? To have actually made both of them pregnant so quickly.
Having had the experience of taking care of Xiao Yixian, Gu Fei was no longer as flustered as before.
"From now on, you must rest well and nourish the fetus in peace."
Gu Fei hurried to take care of Cai'er, but was refused by her.
"We Snake-People are different from humans; the gestation period for Snake-People is much longer than that of humans, not to mention that I have now become a Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python of ancient bloodline, so the gestation period is even longer."
"About how long?"
"I estimate three to five years."
"That long?"
Gu Fei looked at Cai'er's belly, and thought it was reasonable; the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python was equivalent to a Magical Beast constitution, and reproduction for Magical Beasts is much more difficult than for humans, so three to five years is normal.
"During pregnancy, do you need spiritual pills and medicines to nourish the fetus in your womb?"
Gu Fei remembered one thing.
Upon hearing this, Cai'er parted her red lips slightly, nodded, and said: "That is indeed the case. During pregnancy, our clan uses secret methods to nourish the fetus, which can enhance the infant's bloodline ability, and their potential after birth will also be even more terrifying."
"The strongest secret technique passed down by the Snake-People Tribe is the Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill..."
"The Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill is merely a Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pill; how could that be enough? If our child is to use one, they must use a better one!"
Before Cai'er could finish speaking, Gu Fei interrupted him, his words making Cai'er even more moved.
"I once obtained an Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill formula called the Dragon Soul Holy Blood Pill; its function is similar to the Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill, but its effects are countless times more powerful than the latter!"
Cai'er looked at Gu Fei with emotion; Gu Fei would bring out an Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill at a moment's notice, and the fetal-calming medicine he had given Xiao Yixian back then was also an Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill.
She and Xiao Yixian held the same weight in Gu Fei's heart.
"Just rest well; leave the matter of refining pills to me. I guarantee that both you and the child will receive the most abundant nourishment!"
Gu Fei helped Cai'er back to rest and then told Zi Yan and Qing Lin to pay more attention.
"Sister Cai'er is pregnant too!"
"This is just too awesome!"
Hearing Gu Fei's words, Zi Yan's little face instantly revealed an expression of excitement, as if the person pregnant was not Medusa, but her.
