Chapter 37: Jinzha Pays Homage to His Master

He silently reckoned how to handle the birthing process, as the person in charge of the Twelve Golden Immortals.

On the surface, Ao Yifan remained unmoving and silent, saying: "As a father, I naturally hope my child has a better future; actually, becoming a disciple of the Jade Void Palace is not a bad thing."

Feeling the slight tightening of the small hand of Lady Yin beside him, who was gripping his arm, Ao Yifan knew it was his wife who was reluctant to let go of little Jinzha.

He gently patted his wife's hand to comfort her, then Ao Yifan continued: "However, the child is still young, so there's no rush to go up the mountain to cultivate; of course, becoming a disciple first is fine, Your Majesty, Heavenly Venerable, what do you think?"

Feasible!

Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable was the first to agree; he only needed a disciple to ward off the calamity, and as for how much skill Jinzha would ultimately learn, he didn't really care.

Meanwhile, Di Xin couldn't help but frown.

At this moment, Queen Jiang advised from the side: "Your Majesty, letting Jinzha become a disciple of the Jade Void Palace is not a bad thing; at least, with this connection, Jinzha will find it easier to render service and achieve merit for our Great Shang."

Queen Jiang saying this naturally came with Ao Yifan's approval.

The two had long since become attuned; a single glance was enough for Queen Jiang to know what to use, and she naturally understood Ao Yifan's thoughts.

Upon hearing this, Di Xin was also persuaded.

After all, it is still an age where humans and immortals coexist; often, mortal wars still require the aid of immortal power.

At this point, identity becomes very important.

If Jinzha goes out under the name of a disciple of the Twelve Golden Immortals, who would not give him some face?

Then, so be it!

With a wave of his hand, Di Xin put away the National Fortune Dark Bird, and Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable also felt his own magical power recover once again.

At this moment, Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable also felt a lingering apprehension.

Before, he had only heard that one must not rashly provoke the Human Emperor.

But now, truly facing the Human Emperor, he finally realized how terrifying the opponent is.

After all, if an immortal's magical power is sealed, what difference is there between him and a mortal?

Fortunately, he has a Sage above him; otherwise, given Di Xin's temper, Huang Feihu would have long ago chopped off his dog's head.

Look, this shows the importance of having someone above!

This is also why Ao Yifan truly wants to become the person in charge of the Twelve Golden Immortals.

"Come, my child, come over; hurry and pay respects to your master. You just told your father you liked your master's golden pillar, didn't you? After becoming a disciple, your master will give you that golden pillar as a initiation gift."

Ao Yifan greeted little Jinzha and said.

Upon hearing this, little Jinzha blinked and thought, "When did I ever say I liked that golden pillar?"

However, little Jinzha, though young, is very clever; he immediately bowed his head to Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable.

"Disciple Ao Jinzha greets the Master!"

After paying respects, little Jinzha did not rise; he merely opened his big, adorable eyes and gazed at Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable.

Frankly, Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable had never seen such a scene.

After all, who would have a newly accepted disciple produce their own hidden treasure?

"However, so be it; my treasures all have backdoors, temporarily placed on this disciple of mine, and that's fine."

Thinking this, Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable chuckled, then took out the Escape Dragon Pillar and said: "Disciple, this treasure is called the Escape Dragon Pillar; capturing dragons and seizing immortals is naturally easy; you should keep it well."

Thank you, Master!

Little Jinzha laughed as he embraced the Escape Dragon Pillar, which was taller than him, appearing unwilling to let go.

Seeing this, Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable couldn't help but feel a secret shock: "My disciple is merely a mortal, yet possesses such strength; it seems his talent is also extraordinary—only a pity that the Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity is approaching…"

Just then, Ao Yifan said: "Jinzha's master, today is my wedding with Jinzha's mother; why not stay and have a drink together?"

This…

Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable was about to refuse when Huang Feihu from the side pulled him to take a seat.

"Alright, you are already Jinzha's master; no need to be so polite."

In the end, Wenshu Broad Dharma Heavenly Venerable could not refuse and could only accompany a group of mortals to attend the wedding of Ao Yifan and Lady Yin.

……

"Prince Consort, how could you let Jinzha take a master?"

After the wedding, in the bridal chamber, Lady Yin leaned in Ao Yifan's embrace.

Previously, Lady Yin respected Ao Yifan's decision and would not question it in front of outsiders.

Now, the couple being alone, she naturally wanted to ask Ao Yifan the true purpose behind this.

"Lady, walls have ears; while we attend to matters, I will send you a mental transmission."

Ao Yifan spoke softly.

He naturally did not want outsiders to know his true purpose, so he prepared to use the moment when they practiced the Yin-Yang Harmony Grand Dao to explain his true purpose to his wife.

After all, he did not believe that anyone shameless would scheme against him at this time.

She gave Ao Yifan a flirtatious glance and said, "Then, be gentle."

At that moment, Ao Yifan, while practicing the Yin-Yang Harmony Grand Dao, explained his plan to Lady Yin.

At first, Lady Yin could listen attentively, but later, how much she could clearly hear is unknown.

"Alright, alright, I know, I know your plan; the Twelve Golden Immortals, my son is destined to be one!"

Having said the last sentence, Lady Yin immediately fell asleep sweetly.

……

In the following days, Ao Yifan stayed in Morning Song City, accompanying the many women, awaiting the birth of the children.

As expected, Lady Yin remained the fastest to give birth.

"What heavenly change is this? Could it be that my younger sister has given birth again?"

Seeing similar heavenly and earthly changes, Di Xin couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

Firstly, it's because my younger sister again gave birth to a qilin son for the Great Shang.

Secondly, I also lament that my younger sister's childbearing speed is truly too fast.

In just one month, the child was born—what a miraculous physique.

"Someone, prepare the princess's residence!"

Di Xin waved his hand, and immediately single-handedly picked up Little Jin Zha, who was reading a book.

"Little Jin Zha, let's go see your younger brother!"

Ao Yifan, being an immortal, had already reported the child's gender to the palace several days earlier, which made Di Xin very happy.

"Oh, I'm going to have a younger brother!"

Jin Zha also excitedly clapped his little hands, then immediately put his arms around Di Xin's neck, and together they mounted the dragon carriage.

Nowadays, in Morning Song, only Little Jin Zha enjoys such honor.

It is clear how dearly Di Xin loves his little nephew.

This all puts Ao Yifan in a dilemma—whether or not to have Jin Zha join the forces attacking Yin Shang, as per the original historical course.

After all, wouldn't that be too cruel?

Of course, at this moment Ao Yifan has no mind to think about all that; right now he is standing by Lady Yin's side, waiting for her second infusion of spiritual energy.

As for Little Mu Zha, he has already been held in the arms of Fairy Yunhua beside him.

At this moment, Fairy Yunhua's belly is only slightly swollen, forming a stark contrast with Lady Yin, who gives birth to children astonishingly fast.

"I truly envy, Sister Suzi already has a second child so quickly; my son, I don't know how much longer until I, as his mother, can see him."

Fairy Yunhua said enviously.
