Chapter 48: Enter the Palace
Dragon Clan Revival Plan!
Under Ao Guang's promotion, it began to be slowly implemented.
Although, in Ao Yifan's view, he would suffer greatly, but the Dragon Clan is his foundation; no matter how hard, he must grit his teeth and persevere.
However, fortunately, male dragons could possibly produce oddballs like Ao Shun and Ao Qin.
But among female dragons, they are all pretty girls.
Even Ao Guang's third aunt, after taking human form, still retained her charm.
"Thank you, Holy Dragon Sir, for your grace!"
Respectfully expressing gratitude to Ao Yifan, Ao Guang's third aunt left with a satisfied face.
He and her husband finally had their own dragon cub.
Moreover, what Ao Guang's third aunt looks forward to even more is that she heard that if she could bear Holy Dragon Sir's offspring, she would receive Spirit Qi Infusion, and perhaps her cultivation could then break through.
"Now this makes sense—I am now a moving treasure vault; Runrun doesn't cherish me, but others naturally know my worth."
These past days, Ao Yifan has stayed in the newly repaired East Sea Dragon Palace, bestowing grace upon those dragon maidens.
Even his plan to subdue the Sea Bottom Monster Clan has been temporarily shelved.
After all, according to Ao Guang, the Dragon Clan is the foundation; its revival cannot be delayed.
"Holy Dragon Sir, if I bear your offspring, can I truly receive Spirit Qi Infusion?"
Behind him, Sha Mu, who was massaging Ao Yifan's shoulders, asked in a low voice.
Hearing that, Ao Yifan glanced at her and said, "You've heard that too? To tell you the truth, it's true!"
"Well..."
Sha Mu suddenly walked up to Ao Yifan, knelt, and said, "Holy Dragon Sir, I don't know if my Jiao Clan can also receive your grace."
"This, we'll see later; Ao Guang said we must first attend to the Dragon Clan, then it will be your Sea Bottom Monster Clan's turn."
Ao Yifan said, "However, since you have served me this long, I can open a green channel for you."
Although some didn't understand what Ao Yifan meant by 'green channel,' Sha Mu still understood; as Ao Yifan's woman, she and the other three demons could thus enjoy the advantage of being close to the water.
"Thank you, Holy Dragon Sir!"
The four demons were delighted and consequently served Ao Yifan even more devotedly.
At the same time, they had already decided to sincerely persuade their fellow demons to wholeheartedly submit to the Dragon Clan.
After all, in their view, with this Holy Dragon Sir's existence, the Dragon Clan's revival is imminent; submitting to the Dragon Clan is the only way out for these Sea Bottom Monster Clan members.
……
"Mother, why don't you let Father and us live together? I saw earlier that he went to see those four aunts again."
Ao Yun cradled in her arms, Ao Sheng stared with his big, cute eyes at his mother and asked.
Hearing that, Ao Yun snorted coldly and said, "Father can go wherever he likes; I couldn't care less. As long as I have my precious Shenger with me, that's enough."
"But Mother, Shenger still wants a little brother or sister; why don't you and Father have a few more kids for me to play with?"
Ao Sheng said coquettishly.
"Well..."
Hearing that, Ao Yun didn't know how to answer.
After a moment's hesitation, Ao Yun lightly bit her lip and whispered in Ao Sheng's ear, "Shenger, if you want a little brother or sister, it still depends on Father; find a time to mention it to him—just remember, never say I told you to say that, remember?"
"Okay, Mother, Shenger remembers!"
Ao Sheng smiled, narrowing his eyes, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
……
"Queen Jiang is about to give birth!"
During this period, Ao Yifan ran back and forth, on one side accompanying his wives, and on the other, striving for the Dragon Clan's great revival plan.
That day, while Ao Yifan was chatting with Lady Yin in her embrace, he received the news from his wife's mouth.
"Queen Jiang, she's finally going to give birth!"
"Prince Consort, could something go wrong?"
Lady Yin worried.
As for the child in her Imperial Sister-in-law's belly, Lady Yin naturally knew best.
When giving birth to Jin Zha and Mu Zha, there had been occurrences of Spirit Qi Infusion; this made Lady Yin worry that the same situation might happen to Queen Jiang, arousing others' suspicions.
"Don't worry, Chang Xi has already considered this; all Queen Jiang needs to do is wait for the night of the full month to give birth, and she can instantly devour the Spirit Qi from the Spirit Qi Infusion, restoring her former true spirit."
Ao Yifan said.
"Is that so!"
Lady Yin nodded, then, as if she had thought of something, she continued: "Imperial Sister-in-law asked me to bring you into the palace; she hopes you can accompany her when she gives birth."
Ao Yifan detected a hint of resentment in his wife's tone and immediately comforted her: "Lady, we indeed must go; after all, I also need to personally verify whether Queen Jiang's deadly calamity has been resolved."
Hearing that, Lady Yin then recalled that she had originally agreed to the matter with the Prince Consort and Imperial Sister-in-law precisely because of the Imperial Sister-in-law's deadly calamity.
"Exactly, we're doing all this to save the Imperial Sister-in-law; I can't be selfish!"
Lady Yin secretly thought, then leaned against Ao Yifan's chest and said: "Then let's enter the palace tomorrow, and let the Prince Consort see where I lived as a child."
"Mm"
Ao Yifan nodded, then whispered two sentences into Lady Yin's ear.
Hearing that, Lady Yin's face flushed slightly, yet she remained solemn: "After Imperial Sister-in-law gives birth, we will set off back to Chen Tang Pass; be careful, I temporarily don't want to keep having children."
"Alright, I'll be very careful!"
……
The next day, Ao Yifan and Lady Yin, leading Xiao Qing, Xiao Bai, and a host of maidservants, went into the palace.
As for the Mirage, Cloud-flower Fairy, and Princess Longji, due to their special identities, they were temporarily left in the Princess's residence.
This was also Ao Yifan's first time entering the Yin Shang Royal Palace; however, regarding the furnishings here, Ao Yifan did not feel overly impressed.
After all, the Dragon clan has begun reconstruction; although it is a scene of myriad neglected affairs awaiting revival, the East Sea is rich in resources, making it quite easy to obtain some rare treasures from the land.
"Imperial sister-in-law, I and the Prince consort have come to see you!"
Lady Yin stepped forward, took Queen Jiang's hand, looked left and right, and couldn't help but ask: "Imperial sister-in-law, where is the Imperial elder brother? Why don't I see him?"
Upon hearing this, Queen Jiang said lightly: "Recently, the North Sea war has been urgent; the Great King and the high officials have been constantly discussing North Sea matters, leaving no time to keep me company."
When she spoke, Queen Jiang's voice was quite flat; it was obvious that, with Emperor Xin preoccupied with state affairs and unwilling to keep her company, she did not particularly mind.
Moreover, as she spoke, Queen Jiang's beautiful eyes continually rested on Ao Yifan; upon seeing that Ao Yifan could enter the palace, she was obviously quite happy.
Noticing Queen Jiang's gaze, Ao Yifan also returned a smile.
In an instant, Queen Jiang's fair cheeks flushed slightly; it was obvious that, no matter how much time passed, she could not shake her habit of being shy.
Noticing the two's small gestures, Lady Yin involuntarily coughed lightly and said: "Imperial sister-in-law, the Imperial elder brother has no time to keep you company; I and the Prince consort keeping you company is just the same."
"Mm, that is indeed the same!"
Queen Jiang nodded lightly.
