Chapter 197: Chapter 196: You Can’t Have Your Cake and Eat It Too Chapter 197: Chapter 196: You Can’t Have Your Cake and Eat It Too “Mommy, Manman is full now. Manman is going back to the room to sleep.”
“Okay.” It seems that the ga of fight the landlord won’t happen today. Sally packed up the playing cards and returned to her room as well.
…
Zhu Sanlang released the woman’s arm.
His face was very cold, “Why are you here?”
“I ca to see my senior brother ah, it’s been so long, I’ve missed you so much…” The woman said as she tried to lean into Zhu Sanlang.
Zhu Sanlang pushed her away and stepped back, “If there’s nothing else, you are not needed here.”
“Thinking of you is the most important thing, isn’t it?” The woman cast a seductive glance toward Yunng Island, “Although it was just a quick glimpse, I did see that there is a woman on my senior brother’s island.”
“It’s none of your business!” Zhu Sanlang’s expression grew even colder.
“It may not concern . But I wonder if the senior sister, once she cos out of closed-door cultivation, would be sad to hear this news…” The woman probed with her gaze fixed on Zhu Sanlang’s expression.
Sure enough, at the ntion of senior sister, a complex look flashed across his face.
“I’m here to tell senior brother that senior sister will be coming out of seclusion earlier. As for that woman on the island, you’d better arrange things early, otherwise, it won’t be a pretty sight when senior sister takes action.”
After saying that, she produced a teleportation array scroll from her hand, “Senior brother, your junior sister will be waiting for you at Shenglong Mountain~”
After she finished, she opened the scroll and disappeared.
Zhu Sanlang looked toward Yunng Island, his eyes gradually becoming resolute.
Although Sally hadn’t asked Xiaoi to eavesdrop on Zhu Sanlang and his junior sister’s conversation, as an Offspring System fond of gossip and drama, it was impossible not to pay attention to Father Beast’s personal privacy matters.
So when Xiaoi learned that a senior sister might be detrintal to Sally, she relayed this ssage to her.
[For now, let’s pretend we don’t know anything. If this senior sister wants to make a move against us, we’ll simply leave him when the ti cos.]
[Does the host already plan to leave?]
[I’m not leaving now, I’m worried about the future.] Sally just wanted to have a child with him and didn’t want to beco his shackle. Zhu Sanlang seed truly invested in her, and perhaps having soone interrupt might not be a bad thing.
If he could be more perfunctory towards her or stay clear-headed like Zi Qi, knowing that she wouldn’t stop for anyone, that she would always keep moving forward, and that there would be other opportunities and children, she would never let herself get carried away either.
Zhu Sanlang returned, and he explained the identity of the visitor to Sally.
“She’s my junior sister, nad Liuzhu. I once studied at Shenglong Mountain for over five hundred years and then traveled after leaving the mountain. I ca across Yunng Island and started living there. Sotis I leave the island to go other places, but the island’s teleportation array allows to return anyti.”
“I hadn’t noticed before, but it turns out there is a teleportation array on this platform.”
“It only appears when it is activated; otherwise, it is always hidden.”
“Hm. Since she is your junior sister, why not have her stay for a al before letting her go?”
“No need; she’s not hungry.”
“…”
“Are you hungry?”
“A little.”
“Alright, I’ll go prepare sothing for you to eat.” Zhu Sanlang imdiately went to the kitchen.
Sally watched his retreating figure, touched her own abdon, which was still very flat without any sign of pregnancy.
Xiaoi said to Sally:[Host, the eleventh offspring has hatched.]
Sally smiled:[Really? Show , what does it look like?]
Xiaoi showed Sally a video clip.
A little white rat, identical to Sally’s beast form, but with pale blue eyes, was circling around a red and yellow egg.
Suddenly, it tapped the eggshell with its tail.
Zi Qi noticed her actions and quickly cautioned her with a gentle word, “Xiaoqi, don’t do that, Little Shiyi will be hurt.”
“I want him to co out and play with .” Xiaoqi said, “Look, he’s about to co out.”
‘Crack~’ The eggshell did indeed form a crack, followed by a large number of fissures…
A golden little mouse, timidly poked its head out from the inside.
Zi Qi’s extraordinary and bewitching purple eyes suddenly lit up, “That damned bird, to have such good luck! Yanyan, rember I’ve also stored so stuff with you; make sure to send back a second child!”
Sally twitched the corner of her mouth, indeed Zi Qi had pestered her more than once to store so sen, it seed he had already set his sights on it.
“Father, why… why is he bigger than ! Clearly, I’m the older sister!” Xiaoqi moved around Little Shiyi and back again.
Zi Qi picked her up and placed her on Xiaoba’s eggshell.
“Your tail is quite useful, so give Xiaoba’s a few taps and see if he can co out a bit earlier.”
“Okay.” Xiaoqi tapped on the golden dragon-patterned eggshell with her tail.
No response…
Little Shiyi, seeing that there was no danger outside, cautiously crawled out of the eggshell, ‘crunch crunch~’ and ate all of its remains, even letting out a satisfied burp.
Only then did Zi Qi pick him up.
He examined his body, which was one size larger than Xiaoqi’s, and finally noticed a mark on his left front paw.
“Yu Yan.” Zi Qi called out.
Yu Yan ca in from outside and looked at the little golden mouse in his hands, “What’s this?”
“The newly hatched Little Shiyi. Take a look at this, do you recognize it?” Zi Qi asked him to inspect Little Shiyi’s paw.
After examining it, Yu Yan thought for a mont, “This seems to be an ancient blessing mark. I’ve only seen it in so ancient texts; it was thought to be long lost.”
“Blessing mark?”
“As if Your Majesty could condense his most powerful attack into a mark and bestow it upon Xiaoqi. Should she face danger, this mark would release Your Majesty’s magical power to protect her.”
Seeing this, Sally recalled that Zhu Sanlang indeed left a mark on the eggshell when he obtained Little Shiyi; it must have been this.
“To be born at Spirit Rank, this child will be extraordinary in the future.” Yu Yan saw Little Shiyi’s innate talent and envied, “Ming Linyuan really has mixed blessings, losing a Heaven Rank daughter but gaining a Spirit Rank son.”
Zi Qi replied, “Being born into the Rat Clan proves her realm is already higher than Ming Linyuan’s.”
“Does that an if she sends more children, they’ll all be little mice?”
“Mm. But she probably won’t send more; what she wants are heirs that can bring her more points. So, this damned bird really is lucky.” Zi Qi looked at the little golden mouse in his hand, truly wanting it for himself.
Yu Yan, “She wouldn’t favor so over others.”
Zi Qi, looking at his son, affird decisively, “She would.”
The video ended there.
“[That really does show understanding of the host.]” Xiaoi said to Sally.
Sally sighed, [Ah, how should I put it, that really is what I’m thinking.]
“[So does the host really not want more children?]”
“[What do you think?]”
“[I think it’s doable. 1,000,000 points aren’t few, and if you consu so good stuff during pregnancy, and if the child born has a peculiar talent, doubling the points isn’t impossible.]”
“[When I was pregnant with Little Shiyi, I didn’t eat less, but the Secret Technique proved everything.]”
“[The host needn’t be fixated on Secret Techniques. The end goal of all Secret Techniques are rules. Innate rules co naturally, but rules ford later are more powerful, you can even create your own rules.]”
“[The prerequisite for creating rules later is to have an Innate talent that reaches God Rank! It’s too difficult, and just thinking about it is tiring. If not for the points, of course, I wish for my children to be just ordinary and happy.]”
Sally paused, thinking of Zi Qi’s lonely eyes in the video, [You can’t have your cake and eat it too. But when it cos to having children, I make the decision.]
