Chapter 2247: with translation of chapter title

~8 min read 1,437 words

What truly worries Xiao Feng is the gap between the virtual and the real.

Xun Shuang is an inhabitant of the virtual universe, as are Xiao Mi, He Er Na, and others.

Although everyone is now used to virtual and real existing side by side, no one looks down on the virtual universe.

But the virtual remains virtual—it can never truly be felt. The sensation and feedback of thoughts are fundamentally different from real skin contact.

His wife and son are virtual beings, and only he in the entire universe can understand that feeling.

Xiao Feng went out with his parents for a walk, then returned to the neighborhood.

He then chatted with Jiang Ning's grandmother and Xu Xiao Nian's mother for a while.

His virtual body idles all day, like an unemployed drifter, wandering around the neighborhood inside and out every day.

These are just little tricks he uses to burn off excess willpower and sharpen himself.

But today he simply wasn't in the mood to train himself; after talking with the elders, he went home, sat on the living-room sofa, and suspended the conscious thought of this body.

Earth, the Nine Provinces, the Controller Plane, the virtual bodies in outer space around the Blue Star…

Each of these split-off thoughts came to a stop and returned to the main body.

In the game world, in the serene garden on the north side of the Little Heavenly Court.

Thus for line 11, named entities: Di Qiu (from glossary), Nine Provinces, Controller Plane, Blue Star.

"There are still eight hours until the new day," Xiao Feng said.

"Hmm."

Xun Shuang gave a slight nod.

She is an immortal maiden, unlike ordinary pregnant women—she can walk, jump, and even fly to cast spells despite being ten months pregnant.

This state has persisted for over two years, she has already

become accustomed.

But seeing the sole primordial chaos-energy treasure vase on the stone table, her feelings are no different from those of an ordinary pregnant woman.

"Have you decided on a name for the child?" she asked Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng didn't answer; instead he asked her, "Which of the few I mentioned before do you like?"

Xun Shuang smiled faintly and replied, "I still prefer the character 'Fan'. The supreme way is simplest; the ultimate truth ultimately reveals plainness, which is itself great wisdom."

Xiao Feng smiled slightly and said, "Let's call him Xiao Fan—it's just one stroke fewer than my name."

"Mm, lose that improper stroke of yours." Xun Shuang wholeheartedly agreed; her deepest wish is that their son not be as improper as Xiao Feng.

"You couldn't be talking about a physical stroke, could you?" Xiao Feng couldn't help but joke.

"Pah, I was just talking about you—this is improper. Your son is about to be born; he might hear you, so stop fooling around." Xun Shuang snapped.

Over the past two years, Xiao Feng has stayed home keeping her company, and their relationship has naturally grown much more intimate—now they're like a young couple, getting along very harmoniously.

Originally pure and untouched, Immortal Maiden Xun Shuang also, through his frequent driving and everyday chats, picked up some improper topics.

Of course, she remains pure; she merely understands the meaning of those words and knows how to rebut him.

"Okay, okay, I'll change—I'll cut off that stroke and become a proper, desireless person!" Xiao Feng laughed.

Xun Shuang shook her head; this man claims he wants to be proper, but the moment he speaks he's improper again, leaving her completely helpless.

She stays silent, but Xiao Feng can also find topics on his own.

Of course, she was still pure; she simply understood what those words meant and knew how to rebut him.

He squatted down, pressed his ear to Xun Shuang's belly to hear the baby's heartbeat, and softly said to the child inside: "Baby, can you hear me? Your mother wants you to be upright and faithful—never go around harming other families' daughters, choose one partner and stay with them forever, live in harmony like an immortal couple. Hmm… it would be best to have several more children—ten or eight is fine, even a hundred eighty we could afford."

Xun Shuang laughed despite herself, pushing his head away: "The son isn't even born yet, and you're already thinking about holding grandchildren."

"Gee, what a big deal—I met you in my twenties, and now I'm about thirty‑one and about to become a father. Our son shouldn't be worse than me; we should aim for him to marry and have a child by his mid‑twenties, which means just waiting another twenty years or so—soon enough." Xiao Feng said solemnly.

"。" No named.

She felt a bit dizzy.

Before, she had cultivated for three thousand years, watching the sun rise and set, the cold come and heat go, year after year, never feeling that time was very long.

But now looking at it, Xiao Feng is just a thirty‑year‑old youth; compared to her age, he's practically a little child.

If we calculate by a hundred years per four generations, she is older than Xiao Feng by over 120 generations.

If in another twenty‑plus years she will really be holding a grandchild, then the life‑stage changes she has experienced in these thirty years would surely exceed the sum of the past three thousand years.

"No, I don't want to become a grandmother that early…"

Xun Shuang suddenly felt a bit gloomy.

Although she has never been an ordinary mortal from childhood, in her impression, grandmothers are mostly white‑haired elderly ladies.

Even though she is over three thousand years old, she has never regarded herself as an old lady; mentally she is still

a young girl, and naturally cannot accept such an "aged" identity.

Xiao Feng hurried to comfort her.

Their son is no ordinary person; he will also become an immortal, with an unlimited lifespan, able to live countless years.

So there's no need to rush into marriage; just keep an eye on things, and no dating before the age of three thousand!

Otherwise, family law will be enforced!

As for what family law is… we'll think about it later!

"There are still six hours left; it's hard to endure…"

Both of them were anxiously waiting.

After a while, many figures appeared in the garden.

Jiang Ning, Xiao Mi, and the others all came, each looking at Xun Shuang's belly with envy, wishing they too could have such an honor.

There are still six hours left—this is going to be tough...

Both of them waited anxiously.

After a moment, many figures appeared in the garden.

Jiang Ning, Xiao Mi, and the others arrived, each gazing enviously at Xun Shuang's belly, wishing they could also have such an honor.

Xiao Feng's parents also came over to visit the daughter-in-law, and then they waited to hold the grandchild.

Xiao Feng kept the matter quiet, and his other friends, unaware of today's special nature, did not come over.

The family, full of anticipation, endured six hours and finally welcomed a new day.

Seeing that the cooldown of the Primordial Treasure Vase had ended, Xiao Feng immediately picked it up and handed it to Xun Shuang.

"Shuang'er, you'll have to work hard," he said, half-crouching, gazing at the flawless person seated before him.

Xun Shuang took the Primordial Treasure Vase, also looking at him, and said: "Past mistakes have long been let go. Fellow Daoist, please guide me."

The term "Fellow Daoist" sounded quite unfamiliar.

But the phrase "please guide me" made Xiao Feng beam with joy.

"Are you willing to stay by my side now?"

In front of his parents and the many women, Xiao Feng happily asked her.

Xun Shuang countered: "Where else could I go?"

Now the multiverse world has completely become a battlefield.

Over ten million God Kings on the server, and countless Main Gods, like a swarm of locusts, could overturn the entire land.

Although

Yet there are no Venerables, but now the players' power has already surpassed the total strength of the beings of the Primordial Apocalypse, and its terror exceeds that of wild monsters by a hundred million times.

Xun Shuang is very strong, not inferior to a Venerable, but establishing a foothold in this multiverse is certainly no easy task.

Seeing her finally comprehend, Xiao Feng felt tears welling up.

"Good Shuang'er, I love you to death! Hurry and take the Chaotic Spiritual Qi; let's welcome the birth of our baby together," Xiao Feng exclaimed excitedly.

Xun Shuang nodded slightly, drew out the last wisp of purple qi from the bottle, and swallowed it.
