After spending so ti convincing Zhu ngyi to let him go, Su Yang boarded Qiuyue’s flying ship and left the Holy Central Continent shortly after.
After Su Yang’s departure, Zhu ngyi went to et with Matriarch Zhu for the first ti in many days.
"Why are you crying?" Matriarch Zhu watched Zhu ngyi enter the room with a teary face and almost couldn’t believe her eyes. The last ti Zhu ngyi cried like this was during her father’s funeral.
However, Zhu ngyi continued to cry without responding to her.
"Co over here..." Matriarch Zhu embraced her and began pampering her.
After many minutes of crying, Zhu ngyi finally cald down and explained the situation to Matriarch Zhu.
However, upon hearing the story, Matriarch Zhu looked at Zhu ngyi with a terrified expression, almost like she’d just witnessed the downfall of Heaven.
"W-W-W-What did you just say? Y-Y-You will be pregnant with Su Yang’s c-c-child?"
Matriarch Zhu nearly fainted on the spot when she learned that her daughter will be carrying Immortal Fairy Su Yue’s husband’s child.
How will she explain this to Immortal Fairy Su Yue if she decides to visit her one more ti? However, even more questionable is why Su Yang agreed to sow his seed in Zhu ngyi when he already has soone like Immortal Fairy Su Yue. Could it be that he wasn’t her husband after all? But even if that was true, it still raises countless other questions.
Matriarch Zhu received a huge headache from all of this thinking and needed so ti to calm down.
"I understand the situation for the most part, but are you fine with all of this?" Matriarch Zhu asked Zhu ngyi. "Who knows when he’ll return."
"I have accepted this outco before I’d even confronted him. Although I won’t say that I am completely okay with it, I will definitely be fine." Zhu ngyi showed a positive smile that almost blinded Matriarch Zhu.
Matriarch Zhu smiled inwardly, thinking to herself how Zhu ngyi has matured during these last few days.
"Anyway, this is all I have to report. I am going to the Holy Sword Academy now to see Sister Jinjing."
"Again?" Matriarch Zhu sighed.
Although she disliked Zhu ngyi being so familiar with the Holy Sword Academy, she did not stop her from going regardless.
"Don’t stay for too long, or Patriarch Wu will start complaining again." Matriarch Zhu warned her before she left.

At the Holy Sword Academy, Patriarch Wu sat inside his room with his eyes staring at the wall with a dazed expression.
"That girl... to think she’d make such a big decision without even coming to first..." he sighed heavily.
When Wu Jinjing first revealed to him the situation of how she will be bearing a child in the near future, Patriarch Wu collapsed from shock on the spot.
However, what shocked him the most was the na of the man who impregnated her daughter, Su Yang.
If he’s not going crazy, then Immortal Fairy Su Yue’s husband should also be nad Su Yang.
"Is it all just a big coincidence, or...?"
In addition to the incoming child, Patriarch Wu had another problem in his hands, and that was the future of Wu Jinjing as a swordmaster.
"If she’s truly resolved to have this child, then her training will most definitely co to a halt for at least a few years..."
Patriarch Wu suddenly started scratching his head while screaming in frustration, "Ahhhhh! What a waste of ti and talent!"
And although he wanted to try and convince Wu Jinjing to abandon the thought of having the child, he knew very well that she will not listen to him and might even leave the Sect if pressured.
The only thing he could do right now is to accept the fact that he will soon beco a grandfather.
Patriarch Wu stared into the sky and mumbled, "Dear, are you watching this? If you were still alive, how will you be handling all of this? Will you encourage her, or will you stop her...?"
After thinking for a mont, he shook his head, "Maybe I should just accept all of this and prepare myself to beco a grandparent..." he said to himself.

Standing outside of Wu Jinjing’s living quarters, Zhu ngyi greeted her best friend with a big smile.
"I have returned, Sister Jinjing!"
"ngyi... you have returned earlier than I’d anticipated... Are you really that interested in the topic? What will you do if Matriarch Zhu cos here and drags you back herself this ti?"
Zhu ngyi waved her arms and said in a casual tone, "That won’t happen because I got her approval before coming here."
"How rare..." Wu Jinjing mumbled. "Anyway, co inside."
Once they were inside and settled in Wu Jinjing’s own room, Zhu ngyi began to speak with an excited expression, "Listen to this, Sister Jinjing! You will not believe what I am about to tell you!"
"Hmmm... Allow to take a guess..." Wu Jinjing looked up and down Zhu ngyi’s body and said a mont later, "Did you finally find your fated person?"
Zhu ngyi gasped in shock and said, "How can you tell?!"
"I can sense sothing different about your aura... it feels more mature than before..." Wu Jinjing said with a smile. "I can tell because I also went through the sa change very recently."
"As expected from your sharp senses, huh. It’s like there’s nothing I can hide from you."
"Well? Who’s this lucky man that managed to lay his hands on such a talented and beautiful girl?" Wu Jinjing teased.
"Stop teasing ," Zhu ngyi blushed. "And compared to him, my talent is worth only as much as an empty fart..."
Wu Jinjing covered her mouth in surprise, "For soone as talented and accomplished as you in the Dao of Alchemy to say such a thing... but I know how that feels, as I have also experienced a similar feeling when eting my man."
"Anyway, stop avoiding the question and answer already! Who is this lucky man?" Wu Jinjing urged.
"I will tell you if you tell first!" Zhu ngyi did not budge for her at all.
"Fine, then how about this? We will both say the na of our partner at the sa ti." Wu Jinjing suddenly suggested.
"I accept!"
"Good. Then on the count of three — one... two..."
Both Wu Jinjing and Zhu ngyi simultaneously opened their mouth on the third count—
"His na is Su Yang!"
"Su Yang is his na!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Eh?"
"What?"
Their expressions instantly froze, and they stared at each other with a dazed face, their eyes and mouth wide open from shock.
