Chapter 1359: Universal Celebration
The moment Luo Ning was born, the pain on Miss Luo Quan's body disappeared without a trace, leaving only a sense of ease and comfort.
She felt as if she were floating in the air, her whole person immersed in a wonderful sense of weightlessness.
Opening her eyes, Miss Luo Quan seemed to see a sun.
It was the light emitted from her daughter's body. Naked, her whole body was covered in dazzling holy light. She stretched her hands out flat like Moses parting the sea, and her whole body exuded a sacred and solemn temperament.
After a few seconds, Luo Ning, floating in mid-air, drifted into Miss Luo Quan's arms and giggled: "Mom, I finally see you!"
"My precious, your mom has suffered a lot these past two days." Miss Luo Quan lowered her head and gently hugged her daughter in her arms, her eyes filled with tenderness that was about to overflow.
Dr. Zhao checked the instruments and, finding that neither mother nor daughter had any problems, quietly left the operating room with the nurses.
"Daughter, when did you learn this hand of Holy Light technique? Why have I never heard you mention it before?"
Miss Luo Quan saw the white light on her daughter's body gradually weaken and asked curiously.
"I've always known it, as if it existed in my mind from the very beginning, it's just that there was no place to use it before."
Luo Ning raised her head. At this time, she still couldn't quite open her eyes, but she could already make expressions.
"Mom, you must have been in a lot of pain just now. I've never heard you scream so loudly before."
Miss Luo Quan answered with a smile: "These are no longer important; what's important is that you, my daughter, were born safe and sound."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Xia and the others swarmed into the operating room.
Fortunately, the soundproofing of the operating room was excellent; no one outside heard Miss Luo Quan's ghost-like howling just now.
"Oh my, you've sweated so much? It must have been very hard just now, right?"
Wen Xia was very keen in observation. At first glance, she discovered that Miss Luo Quan's surgical gown was soaked, and she hurriedly asked about her condition.
Miss Luo Quan chuckled: "Giving birth is a physical job in the first place; it's normal to be a bit tired, nothing to make a fuss about."
After saying this, she raised the Luo Ning in her hands: "Daughter, come and say hello to your Aunt Wen Xia."
"Hello, Auntie."
Although Luo Ning couldn't open her eyes yet, she had no problem speaking at all, and she called out crisply as soon as she opened her mouth.
"This... she can call people as soon as she's born?" Wen Xia widened her eyes, completely not expecting Luo Ning to be so powerful.
Miss Luo Quan answered: "She could already talk when she was still in my belly, it's just that only I could hear it at the time."
Gao Liang slapped his thigh hard: "I just said sometimes I could see you talking to yourself. I thought you had become a bit possessed because of the pregnancy; it turns out you were chatting with Ningning."
"So you've already treated me as mentally ill?" Miss Luo Quan's face darkened.
"I was just worried and confused." Gao Liang scratched his head, a bit embarrassed.
On a day of great joy, no one went deep into this matter.
Although she had just experienced a torturous delivery, Luo Ning's "Holy Light Illumination" after birth directly restored Miss Luo Quan's physical strength and spirit to full.
And after losing tens of pounds out of thin air, Miss Luo Quan only felt a lightness she had never felt before.
For this period of time, for her daughter's safety, she didn't dare to walk too fast, and running or jumping was out of the question.
Now without constraints, she truly had a feeling of walking like flying.
So after taking a bath, Miss Luo Quan took her daughter for a tour of the Holy Mother's Summer Palace.
Originally, Miss Luo Quan was a bit hesitant, but her daughter said she now had the protection of Holy Light, and ordinary harm couldn't affect her at all.
And going to the Holy Mother's Summer Palace could facilitate her absorbing more faith power, which was an important factor in her growth process, so she had to go.
Fortunately, one absorption could last for a long time, so there was no need to go every day.
Thus, Miss Luo Quan took her daughter to see the believers.
The descent of the Holy Son was a top priority for everyone who believed in the Heavenly Father.
Luo Ning was almost a walking miracle, especially after seeing the holy light bursting from her body, countless believers were so excited that they were in tears, kneeling on the ground and shouting "Holy Son, bless us" without stopping.
From this moment on, Miss Luo Quan understood that she, this Holy Mother, was no longer the only one in the hearts of the believers; Luo Ning had replaced her and become the second most important person in the hearts of the believers.
The most important one was, of course, the Heavenly Father. As for her, ranking third should be no problem.
Fortunately, although her status dropped by one rank, everyone's attitude toward her was still respectful. After kneeling to Luo Ning, they moved their knees and knelt to her again.
"Get up, believers. Today, the Holy Light is with you, and the Heavenly Father is with you."
Miss Luo Quan's voice was loud and sacred. Having been the Holy Mother for so long, she had learned some "god-stick" (charlatan) methods, and she was quite decent at fooling believers.
Luo Ning had a lot to learn at the moment; besides releasing holy light, she didn't know how to fool these fans.
After walking around the square, Miss Luo Quan held her daughter and returned to the cathedral.
Inside, the Pope had already had the Saintess pour the Holy Spring water used for baptism into a golden basin.
A general baptism involves sprinkling the holy water on the newborn's head a few times, serving a symbolic meaning.
If it's a region with fierce folk customs, they will put the baby into the water and dip them quickly, letting them come into full contact with the holy water.
If it's the Holy Son, that's powerful; according to tradition, they are put directly into the holy water.
Looking at this basin that was enough to submerge her knees, Miss Luo Quan appeared a bit hesitant.
Although it is said that newborns can swim like aquatic animals during the period just after birth.
But humans are not fish after all; no matter how well they can swim, they can't stay underwater for long, and if they open their mouths, they will still choke.
So Miss Luo Quan was quite worried that if she put her daughter into the basin, it would make her choke on water and cough.
Fortunately, Luo Ning quickly sent her a telepathic message: "It's okay, Mother, I won't be drowned."
Hearing this, Miss Luo Quan was completely relieved.
She saw her walking step by step to the front of the basin filled with Holy Spring water, and like the baboon in *The Gao Liang King*, she held her daughter high.
Subsequently, under the gaze of countless believers, Miss Luo Quan put her daughter into the water.
The pure Holy Spring water quickly submerged Luo Ning, but after less than five seconds, Luo Ning floated up from the bottom of the water.
Subsequently, her whole person was like a ninja in *Naruto*, standing on the surface of the water as if it were flat ground.
"In the beginning, the heaven and earth were a piece of chaos, and God walked on the water..."
Seeing this scene, Benjamin III was so excited that the beard on his chin was trembling, and he began to chant the first section of the Dawn Scripture, which is Genesis.
Other believers, led by the Pope, also chanted loudly.
Then, Luo Ning was like a drama actor, truly performing Genesis in the water basin.
It was just the more abstract kind, entirely using body language, requiring one to be well-versed in the scriptures to understand her intentions.
I don't know how long it had been, but Luo Ning's Genesis ended, and a dazzling white light shone on her body, followed by a distant holy chant coming from above everyone's heads. This miracle-like scene made countless believers burst into tears.
"Thus, the Holy Son has finally descended. All evil and injustice in the world will vanish, and what remains will only be fairness and justice!"
Benjamin III struck the ground with his scepter, speaking with a quite inflammatory high tone.
After the performance, Miss Luo Quan wiped the Holy Spring water off her daughter and hugged her back into her arms.
At this point, the itinerary on the Dawn Church side was basically over.
Originally, it was said that there would be a "Holy Son Banquet" next, and many big figures from the church would come to celebrate the birth of the Holy Son.
Miss Luo Quan asked: "Then why haven't they come now?"
Benjamin III's language stalled, and he smiled awkwardly: "The church is busy with affairs, so they are a little late."
"What matter can be bigger than the birth of the Holy Son? If you didn't want to come so early, just say so. I'm not a person who likes to hold grudges.
However, I am also a very busy person. Now that the baptism ceremony is over, I should go back. I will come back in a while to spread holy light and gospel to the believers. I hope these big figures will find time to see me then.
As for tonight's Holy Son Banquet, I'll trouble you, Pope, to speak a few more words. My and Ningning's spirit will be with you."
After saying this, Miss Luo Quan ignored the Pope's helpless expression, directly hugged her daughter, turned around, and ran away.
Just kidding, she ran over to see the believers right after giving birth, wasn't it because the church had been trying their best to provide various materials and care during this period?
Now that such a big thing as the birth of the Holy Son had happened, they didn't come over at the first moment. Are they really that busy?
Miss Luo Quan didn't believe it anyway. The spatial teleportation technology in the Universe is so developed now that even if it's a dozen light-years away, it only takes a dozen seconds to arrive via the teleportation array.
To put it bluntly, it's actually that these people don't value it.
However, just as she said just now, she is not a person who holds grudges.
But since you don't value it, she won't have any good face either.
The Pope is a good person, and the believers are also very devout, but there are many factions in the Dawn Church, and not everyone can be as selfless as the Pope.
She will remember the Pope's kindness; as for the others, forget it. Zhining has prepared several tables of sumptuous meals waiting for her.
After greeting the Pope, Miss Luo Quan hugged her daughter and returned to the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty.
It was also during this period that the news of the Holy Son's descent had spread across the entire network of the Universe. The Divine Protection Federation and the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty simultaneously announced a three-day national holiday and a general amnesty, reducing sentences for those with long sentences and releasing those with short sentences, provided they were not guilty of heinous crimes.
Originally, the opinions on both sides were to release everyone directly, but they were persuaded by Miss Luo Quan.
Because the descent of the Holy Son is to bring gospel to good people, not to give rewards to bad people. How could those beasts who kill and set fires be released to harm people again?
Therefore, the general amnesty became a selective release.
Actually, Miss Luo Quan didn't want to release any of them, but Ye Zhining and the President felt that if they didn't do this, they couldn't reflect the grandeur of the Holy Son's descent and the atmosphere of universal celebration.
Seeing that the two high-ranking leaders had such an attitude, Miss Luo Quan finally agreed.
Although she didn't know why Ye Zhining came to join in the fun, logically speaking, the Holy Son was only the Holy Son of the Divine Protection Federation and had nothing to do with the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty.
Could it be that Zhining also treated Luo Ning as her own daughter?
Miss Luo Quan thought about it and found that it wasn't impossible.
But she couldn't ask this directly, so she just ignored it.
Also because of the reaction of the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty, many citizens of the Heavenly Dynasty raised many doubts, wondering why they could also have a holiday when the Holy Son descended.
However, such irresponsible holidays are rare. As beneficiaries, although they were confused, they would definitely not oppose it.
In short, it was four words: Universal Celebration.
Ever since the eight words "Miss Luo Quan gives birth, mother and daughter are safe" hit the trending search, her livestream had been flooded with people sending "Black Holes."
This is the most expensive gift in the livestream room, each worth 100 million Universal Coins. In the past, it was already quite good to see three or four in a day, but today, every time it refreshed, there would be five or six more, as if all the big shots of the Universe had gathered in the livestream room.
As for the comments, they were very uniform, only two sentences: "Congratulations to Miss Luo Quan," and "Wishing Ningning health and happiness."
Miss Luo Quan couldn't respond to the fans' blessings at the first moment because the palace banquet arranged by Ye Zhining had already started, and the specification was the highest royal banquet.
Today, as an important guest, Miss Luo Quan sat with Ye Zhining and Fang Yitian, accompanied by several wet nurses.
Originally, it was feared that Luo Ning's appetite wouldn't be enough and she wouldn't be able to eat her fill.
However, after the wet nurses arrived, they discovered that they seemed to be a bit redundant.
Luo Ning's rations were not "not enough," but abundant to the point of overflowing.
You can question me on anything, but this aspect is unquestionable.
Facing a group of plump wet nurses, Miss Luo Quan proudly puffed out her chest.
This was still the result after using the Succubus Queen's power to shrink it. If she hadn't used this power, if she puffed out her chest like this, she would probably have shamed the wet nurses into leaving in dismay.
"I underestimated you. It seems you don't need anyone else's help at all."
Ye Zhining ate a piece of pork rib and teased Miss Luo Quan.
"Even if it wasn't enough, I would have to find a way to solve it myself. After all, she's my daughter; how can I give her to someone else to raise?"
Miss Luo Quan answered righteously, while lowering her head to drink a large mouthful of lotus root soup.
"Mom, I feel a bit hungry."
Luo Ning reached out and tugged at her mother's lapel, smacking her own pink, chubby little mouth.
After experiencing the short beauty trough after birth, Luo Ning had now completely blossomed, exquisite like a one-of-a-kind porcelain doll.
Fair skin paired with extremely exquisite facial features gave her a kind of charm that would make anyone who saw her feel the urge to cherish her.
Although her hair was still relatively sparse, Miss Luo Quan could already see that her daughter had black hair and black eyes.
As for the bridge of her nose, it was high, but it didn't look like the sharp nose of a white person.
It seems that when her daughter grows up, she will become an Oriental, graceful version of herself, Miss Luo Quan thought in her heart. ===== CHAPTER 1360 =====
