Longzang

Chapter 335: Suppressing Evil
As soon as Wei Yuan entered the room, he was hit by a pungent smell of death and blood.

This was a huge hall where more than thirty pregnant girls were gathered. Sun Yu had just set up a screen and placed a couch, preparing to settle in, but before he could finish preparing, something happened.

Most of the girls in the room lay quietly, their faces shrouded in death, their eyes vacant. The aura surrounding them was gradually dissipating, sustaining their lives but showing no improvement in their physical condition.

Only three girls had such swollen bellies that they couldn't even sit up and had to lie on the bed. Their abdomens were constantly writhing, as if something was trying to crawl out. Just by looking at the size of their bellies, it was clear that these giant babies would most likely not be delivered.

Wei Yuan instinctively sensed something was wrong, so he replenished each girl's luck with several more streams of energy, and then said, "I'll be right back!"

Wei Yuan's figure flashed and disappeared outside the door. Just as he was about to take off, he saw Zhang Sheng land, still carrying Xu Wenwu in his hand.

Wei Yuan was both surprised and confused. How did his teacher know that he wanted to find Xu Wenwu and brought him here in advance?
Before Zhang Sheng could explain, he stepped into the main room, then drew a circle in the center of the room with his sword energy, placed Xu Wenwu inside, and said, "You sit here and don't come out no matter what happens, or your life will be in danger!"

When Xu Wenwu first saw the room full of young girls, his body radiant with spring-like beauty, he almost fainted from excitement. He had gone through all the trouble of transmigrating, wasn't it all for the sake of having three wives and four concubines? Was this the treatment he was finally getting?
But when he regained his senses and saw the situation inside the room, everything went black before his eyes, and he almost fainted from fright.

His teeth chattered, and he stammered, "What...what do you want me to do?"

“You just sit here and stay still to ward off evil,” Zhang Sheng said.

At this moment, the luck that Wei Yuan had just bestowed upon the girls was completely exhausted again. This time, he added ten more blessings to each of them in one go, and finally saw that the luck was being consumed one by one.

Three girls with protruding bellies began to move their bodies unconsciously, the fetuses inside them moving more and more violently. Sun Yu stroked their bellies, but he couldn't calm them down; instead, the girls' vitality fluctuated wildly.

Sun Yu, sweat beading on his forehead, turned and said, "No! The fetus is too big; it can't be delivered!"

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp claw suddenly slashed open the girl's abdomen from the inside!

A bloody infant head emerged from the gaping wound, revealing a set of ghastly blue teeth, and bit down on Sun Yu's hand!
Sun Yu shouted and quickly withdrew his hand; his index finger had vanished!

The baby swallowed Sun Yu's finger whole, tearing the wound open, and crawled out of the girl's belly.

Upon seeing this, Xu Wenwu's eyes rolled back, and he was about to faint, but his primordial spirit was gently pierced by the sword energy of Qing Si Yu, and he woke up again.

The other two girls also had their abdomens ruptured, and an infant crawled out from each of them. The infant that had swallowed Sun Yu's finger was born first; it screamed and suddenly leaped several meters, pouncing on the other infant mid-air!
The baby let out a piercing scream, like tearing through steel. It had barely leaped up when it was pounced on and the two were instantly locked in a fierce battle! They fought like the most ferocious wild beasts, leaping high and low, sometimes crashing into the roof and pillars, leaving trails of blood.

Wei Yuan wanted to make a move, but Zhang Sheng said, "Let's wait and see."

Wei Yuan immediately understood that if he didn't understand the whole process of change, he would be helpless if there was a next time.

At this moment, the third baby finally crawled out of the girl's womb. As soon as he was born, the two babies who had been fighting to the death stopped and turned to stare at him, making threatening whimpering noises.

The third infant looked up at the sky and let out a deafening roar, spitting out a beam of azure sword light that shattered the roof. Fortunately, Zhang Sheng intervened, and a faint, thin sword light intercepted the azure light, preventing it from shooting into the sky.

At this moment, the two babies who were fighting to the death suddenly jumped up and pounced on the third baby at the same time!
Xu Wenwu was so frightened that he trembled like a leaf. He wanted to faint but couldn't. Whenever he rolled his eyes, the sword energy in his primordial spirit would stab him, keeping him awake.

Xu Wenwu had no choice but to close his eyes tightly and desperately chant Buddhist prayers in his heart! After chanting a few times, he realized something was wrong. Taichu Palace was a Taoist sect, so he quickly chanted the names of the Taoist Ancestor, the Three Pure Ones, and so on, making countless great vows, hoping to get through this hurdle.

Suddenly, with a soft thud, something fell into his arms. Xu Wenwu opened his eyes and saw that it was a blood-soaked infant!
He was greatly shocked. A scream he had never heard before was brewing in his chest and was about to burst out when suddenly another blood infant flew over and hit him on the face with a slap. Its tiny hands and feet then tightly hugged Xu Wenwu's head!
Xu Wenwu fainted instantly, then was awakened by the sword energy, then fainted and woke up again, three times in a row.

The two babies were covered in blood, especially the one holding their face, which was sticky and slimy all over, whether it was blood or something else, and it kept burrowing into Xu Wenwu's nose and mouth.

Xu Wenwu tried to shake off the two blood infants, but all his strength vanished, and all he could do was scream. He desperately tried to move his body, attempting to wriggle away, but the sword aura circle was right behind him, and the moment he touched it, it felt as if he had been branded with a red-hot iron.

Fortunately, the third infant pounced, plucked the two blood infants from Xu Wenwu's body with one hand each, and pinned them firmly to the ground. It gripped the throats of the two blood infants, and a gushing life force immediately surged into its body.

The two blood infants' auras rapidly weakened. Wei Yuan frowned slightly, flicked out multiple streams of energy, and attached them to the blood infants to maintain their life force.

The third baby seemed to draw life from everything, endlessly.

Wei Yuan then channeled his Qi into the two blood infants, keeping them alive.

Xu Wenwu collapsed to the ground, screaming incessantly at the three bloodied infants.
Just as Wei Yuan had exhausted nearly a hundred strands of his Qi on each blood infant, the aura of the third infant suddenly changed. The blood-red color in its eyes faded, slowly revealing a pair of clear black and white pupils. The ground around it suddenly transformed into a shallow blue pool, with blue lotuses blooming in the pool.

It withdrew its hands, and the two blood infants slowly regained their vitality.

The third baby raised its head, and the first thing it saw was Xu Wenwu's chubby face, distorted with fear. It seemed to be pondering something, then slowly but clearly said, "Daddy!"

Xu Wenwu froze for a moment, then continued screaming. At this moment, Zhang Sheng withdrew his sword energy, and Xu Wenwu was finally relieved and able to faint. The third infant sat in the pool, splashing water with his tiny hands, then plucked a lotus flower and threw it at Xu Wenwu. The lotus flower merged with Xu Wenwu's body upon contact. As this lotus flower was plucked, all the lotus flowers in the pool withered simultaneously, and then the pool dried up, and the Green Pool disappeared.

With Zhang Sheng watching over him, Wei Yuan immediately went to Sun Yu's side and asked, "How's your hand?"

Sun Yu raised his hand, and saw that at the site of the missing finger's wound, countless thin strands of flesh were growing rapidly, intertwining with each other, and slowly forming a new finger.

"This little thing seems to have a natural ability to devour. My finger went into its belly and I completely lost contact with it, and could only regenerate. It's alright, just a minor injury. I can spend some time retraining my finger later. Now I need to save people!"

Ignoring his injured finger, Sun Yu placed the three girls together and began treating their abdominal wounds.

The chests and abdomens of the three girls were a complete mess, their internal organs almost completely devoured. Sun Yu gave each of them a Dharma Aspect-level precious pill, which he dissolved with his Dao power, sending the medicinal power directly into their limbs and bones. He then had Wei Yuan enhance their luck.

Thanks to Sun Yu's series of miraculous actions, the three girls miraculously survived, and then it was just a matter of waiting for their organs to slowly regenerate on their own.

Sun Yu wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, let out a long breath, and said, "Such a rare sample has finally been preserved."

Wei Yuan returned to the three infants. Although the two blood infants had had a large amount of life force drained, they were now in stable condition due to the blessing of good fortune and were not in immediate danger. They had exhausted themselves and were now fast asleep.

The third baby sat on the ground, looking around curiously.

Wei Yuan wanted to reach out and hug the baby, but the baby snorted disdainfully and with a wave of its little hand, a thin sword aura slashed out at him!
This sword energy was of extremely high grade, already touching the threshold of the Immortal Rank. But Wei Yuan naturally wouldn't tolerate it, and immediately took out the Crimson Night Immortal-Slaying Sword, which was a true Immortal Rank weapon. The distance between the threshold and the outside wasn't a step, but 108,000 li (approximately 54,000 kilometers).

With his immortal sword in hand, Wei Yuan brandished it menacingly at its neck.

The baby's face was pale. He crawled back a step, but when Wei Yuan reached out and scooped him up, he could only obediently let him pick him up.

Wei Yuan carefully examined the baby's features. He could only say the baby was fairly pretty, but there was hardly any resemblance to the baby girl of Seventeen. Wei Yuan then glanced between her legs and was startled—a girl?

Wei Yuan couldn't help but doubt the illusion he had just seen. Could it be just a coincidence, and that the child actually had nothing to do with Xu Shiqi?

As Wei Yuan was pondering serious issues like being reincarnated into the wrong body, the baby in his arms suddenly kicked its two little legs, and a transparent line of water mixed with sword energy shot into Wei Yuan!

Wei Yuan was furious and wanted to spit in retaliation, but he felt it would be too undignified. At this moment, Zhang Sheng laughed and said, "Give your master a hug!"

"Be careful, this brat knows sword energy." Besides a puddle of water, Wei Yuan's clothes had several holes on them, all caused by sword energy. However, Wei Yuan's skin was thick and tough; even a puddle of urine mixed with sword energy couldn't pierce his skin.

Zhang Sheng reached out and took the baby, examining it closely. The baby gave Zhang Sheng a sweet smile and babbled twice.

Zhang Sheng chuckled and said, "Look, the child is still very well-behaved."

Wei Yuan rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, "Then why don't you retract that sword energy at the back of its head and see if it will spray you with a pool of innate holy water?"

In short, the baby under Zhang Sheng's sword aura was very well-behaved, even somewhat ingratiating, which pleased Zhang Sheng.

There were two blood-red infants on the ground. Wei Yuan picked them up. At this moment, both infants had lost their divine powers, and their auras were weaker than those of ordinary children. However, both of them were particularly close to Wei Yuan, perhaps because Wei Yuan had blessed them with his luck and saved them.

As usual, Wei Yuan glanced between their legs; both of them were male.

Wei Yuan shook his head inwardly. It seemed that Xu Shiqi's luck was really not good. He had encountered a one-third chance.

At this moment, Zhang Sheng used his sword energy to penetrate the baby's body and said, "He is actually born with a sword physique!"

Wei Yuan's feelings were somewhat complicated. This child was definitely connected to Xu Shiqi in some way. He just wondered if this would alert the Xu family.

Fortunately, after returning to the realm, Wei Yuan heavily sealed off the new city. After the incident, only cultivators from the Tai Chu Palace were allowed to enter, and the city's defenses were handled by the youths themselves. Therefore, only he, Zhang Sheng, and Sun Yu knew about today's events, oh, and Xu Wenwu as well.

Wei Yuan woke Xu Wenwu up, and he immediately started yelling, so Wei Yuan had to gag him. After he finally calmed down, Wei Yuan pointed to the baby in Zhang Sheng's arms and said, "Your daughter."

"I...I didn't!" Xu Wenwu cried, tears welling up in his eyes.

He had lived two lives. Before transmigrating, he didn't even have a girlfriend. After transmigrating, he had a chance, but he became engrossed in storybooks and spent almost half a month lying in the Lying Flat Inn, wasting precious time. And before he could even do anything, a child fell from the sky?
Xu Wenwu felt that this wasn't how a cheap father should act.

Wei Yuan patted his shoulder and said, "You were born with a sword physique, you're not at a disadvantage."
