Douluo Continent: A Thousand Miles of Cultivation

With nothing to do, the two Ice and Snow Emperors traveled around enjoying themselves, but Qian Renxue's belly gradually swelled up, and she was completely unable to move.

"Xiao Shui, if you're really bored, take a look at the Royal Fighting Team's formation."

Lying next to Qian Renxue, Qian Shui crossed her legs, utterly bored. "How can we rank up? We can't beat them! In a year, Nana and the others will be close to level 60. How can we fight them? He can't beat them!"

Because of his arrival, the Spirit Hall's ability to evaluate spirit masters has improved significantly. Although the cultivation method has not been opened up, it represents a combination of Shrek Academy and the modern education system of Earth ten thousand years later.

In addition, Hu Liena and the other members of the Golden Generation were already quite talented, basically on par with Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng. They just lacked the use of rare and precious materials. Relatively speaking, Yi Chun's personal qualities were already quite good.

Qian Renxue, with Qian Shui's body on top, winked charmingly at Qian Shui, "If we win this, won't it make you look amazing?"

Fortunately, they've been married for almost an old age and are practically immune to it. Qian Shui rolled her eyes and said, "That's true! But unless I do it myself!"

"Then let's do it ourselves~ On the surface, Ning Huahua isn't even 25 years old yet, so~"

"Isn't that bullying a kid?! I won't stand for it! You tricked me into fighting back in my year, and now you're trying to trick me into fighting again. If people find out, how will I save face?"

However, Qian Renxue had grasped Qian Shui's weakness, "Little Shui~ do you think we should carry out our plan?"

Qian Shui, unaware of what was going on, nodded and replied, "Yes."

"If you don't fight, you can only watch! Watching kids fight is so boring!"

"really."

"Why don't we get involved?"

Sitting up, Qian Shui slapped her thigh and exclaimed excitedly, "Indeed! Tsk, now that you mention it, the plan can even be changed, and you can participate too!"

"what?"

"Hehehe~ Xiaoxue, do you also want to participate in the elite competition?"

"Is that so..."

Despite resembling Qian Renxue, the person was completely unconcerned about their delicate appearance. Their face flushed with excitement as they waved their little fist and exclaimed, "Then let's participate!"

Although she was describing her own appearance and marveling at how cute she was, Qian Renxue was completely baffled.

"Come here! Let me tell you!"

Qian Shui, acting all mysterious, stopped Qian Renxue and whispered in her ear, completely disregarding the possibility of mental communication. That's so typical of Qian Shui.

After finishing speaking, Qian Shui clapped his hands, spread them out, and exclaimed excitedly, "Right?!"

Qian Renxue never expected that just a casual suggestion that he participate in the elite competition out of boredom would lead to such a wild idea from him; it was truly too unconventional.

"Aren't you... going too far with them...?"

"Don't be afraid! Cultivation is about cultivating the mind—this will benefit them! Besides, we can't raise our child in the Heaven Dou Empire!"

"really!"

……

After making some minor revisions to the plan with his wife, Qian Shui excitedly started writing a strategy guide and rehearsing the plot. He also took the opportunity to release his main soul's Yang God back home to unleash his skills, especially the clone skill, which was crucial for the upcoming plan. He left only a small portion of it inside Qian Renxue's body.

In this way, Qian Renxue could be said to have completely taken control of Qian Shui's body, and that guy had an incredibly peaceful life.

With something to do, Qian Shui finally made it through the ten-month period. This time, the young couple informed Qian Daoliu in advance, so that the centenarian would not continue to be lonely.

Of course, Bibi Dong was there, but as expected, she didn't come. According to Yue Guan, an insider, 'His Holiness the Pope actually smiled! Though it was only for a fleeting moment.'

All of this was within Qian Shui's expectations, and he deliberately manipulated Bibi Dong in this way, insisting that she would never set foot in Tian Dou City for personal reasons.

The timing couldn't be wrong either. Just like during the wedding, if the news of his appearance had leaked out beforehand, Bibi Dong would definitely have captured Qian Shui and taken him back to the Spirit Hall.

It wasn't that she was afraid to return to the Spirit Hall, but once Qian Shui returned, the matter of several hundred thousand-year spirit rings would be impossible to keep secret. She dared not let Bibi Dong know that there were a bunch of hundred thousand-year spirit beasts in the sea, or even information about ferocious beasts.

At this moment, Bibi Dong is almost like the Rakshasa God of the Eight Trials. She is already a Limit Douluo. Once her two martial souls are fully equipped with 100,000-year soul rings, her divine trial will be over. Rakshasa God Bibi Dong will probably descend ahead of time, and her ultimate goal is to destroy the world!

Therefore, even if there was a chance of something going wrong, Qian Shui dared not gamble. He could only take advantage of Bibi Dong's unwillingness to come to Tian Dou City to face Qian Renxue directly, and wait for the right opportunity to resolve the hidden danger of Bibi Dong's Rakshasa God Trial.

For this opportunity to be fulfilled, Qian Daoliu must first help Qian Shui successfully hunt down the Evil Emperor. Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm would be an unexpected bonus. Even without these conditions, Qian Shui would still add the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to the eighth ring in advance to attempt to reach the Limit Douluo level.

Without these, it would mean an unprecedented lack of personal strength, and there would be no subsequent plans.

The birth of the child presents another opportunity; the child's new life is one of pure joy, the perfect moment to shatter Bibi Dong's madness.

"You're not worried at all?"

High above the clouds above Tiandou City, Qian Daoliu arrived early. He crossed his arms and stared intently at the Crown Prince's residence below, his index finger pointing at the Grand Elder on his wrist guard, revealing his inner turmoil.

"Actually... people usually say, 'There's no use rushing! You can't give birth for her!' Although I wasn't giving birth for Xiaoxue, I guess you could say I was giving birth alongside her..."

The person with Qian Daoliu here is Qian Shui, who has manifested his Yang God form, while his true form is still Xue Qinghe, pacing anxiously outside the delivery room.

From the perspectives of relatives, husband, and new mother, he experienced everything about childbirth in a comprehensive way.

"Sigh, young people, they always have so many tricks up their sleeves!"

Qian Shui: "..."

Have you decided on a name yet?

Qian Shui: "..."

One shouldn't have any expectations of someone who's bad at naming things, at least not Qian Shui.

"As gentle as jade, how about we call it Pure Jade?"

"I'll do whatever Grandpa says!"

In short, Qian Shui breathed a sigh of relief; he was finally no longer disliked for having such an unpleasant name.

Indeed: Auspicious signs arrive at the family, a unicorn brings a child, and ancestors bless the family with blessings and harmonious sounds of phoenixes.

The old man and the child didn't stay long. Once they knew the child had been born safely, they returned to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. After all, since they couldn't hold the child immediately, they could only continue to wait.

Stroking the sweat-covered, flower-like Qian Renxue, Qian Shui activated his Divine Eye, seeing through Qian Renxue's true nature.

Her golden hair was a little sticky, and her complexion was not excessively pale due to her high cultivation level. The two looked at each other, and everything was understood without words.

At least for this moment, the Heaven Dou royal family was happy, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was happy, and even the Spirit Hall was happy. It seemed that everyone was celebrating the birth of this child.

As the current emperor, Xueye bestowed the name Xuehong upon his grandson, meaning "blessed with boundless fortune."

Qian Shui immediately exclaimed in disdain, "It sounds awful!"

Qian Renxue retorted irritably, "How dare you?"

It wasn't until midnight, after seeing off Emperor Xue, Ning Fengzhi, and other guests, that the family of three finally had the chance to return home.

"Qingyu! Qian Qingyu! A boy! Good, good, good! Hahaha!"

Qian Daoliu was overjoyed to see his great-grandson, or rather, his great-great-grandson. He lifted the child above his head, and I had never seen this handsome old man smile so happily before.

At his age, what he longs for most is a house full of children and grandchildren. Unfortunately, his own son is not up to the task, so now he can only rely on his granddaughter and grandson-in-law.

"Xiaoxue! Let's have another baby girl!"

Qian Renxue was somewhat weak after hearing this and didn't say much more, but for some people it was like a bolt from the blue!

He's been working so hard, putting in so much effort, and enjoying all the delicious food Qian Renxue has given him; he's almost developed postpartum depression!

As he spoke, Qian Daoliu slipped over to Qian Shui's side, pretending to hold the child in one arm and put the other behind his back for appearances, his back ramrod straight, but he whispered, "You too, kid! It's good that it's just Xiao Xue, but there's no need to be too restrained! Grandpa supports you!"

"grandfather!"

It was clearly meant for Qian Renxue's ears; where was the child's mother trying to cheat Yi?

As for Qian Shui, all he could say was that he was experiencing both pain and pleasure, tears streaming down his face! Looking at Qian Renxue's shy eyes, could he say no? He was a real man!

'Some are dying of drought, some are dying of floods! I'm neither suffering from drought nor floods, so why am I going to die?!'

Cry? If it weren't for Qian Daoliu, even crying wouldn't be worthwhile.

……

As a Soul Master, her recovery was rapid. With a single use of her healing Soul Skill, Qian Renxue was almost fully recovered by the next day. With Qian Daoliu gone, there was no guarantee of survival; hiding was practically impossible.

As the saying goes, they are truly in love, and the child was an accident~ The ingenious use of the clone technique also comes into play at this moment.

Some people have been holding back for a long time and don't want to hide. Inside the room, moans and groans are heard softly, and outside, someone is watching the baby. There's not much risk after giving birth, is there?

After her pregnancy, Qian Shui was free. With her body refreshed and nourished by Qian Renxue, she took her baby to school.

That's right, for some wicked pleasure, and also because Ning Huahua was old enough, she was admitted to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy again.

When the Shrek Academy members, who had been formed into the Royal Fighting Team 2, saw Ning Huahua arrive with a child in her arms, everyone looked on in disbelief.

Ning Rongrong, however, looked quite unhappy. Anyone could see that Ning Huahua was beaming with pride; it would be strange if she were happy.

"What's wrong? Not welcome? I've said it before, I want to enroll, and plenty of colleges are eager to take me!"

Dai Mubai, the oldest among them, seemed to have become the leader. After exchanging glances, he braced himself and took over the conversation: "No, no, Teacher Ning... it's not that we're too happy for you to come, Ning!"

Yin Jin, who brought Ning Huahua with him, felt his scalp tingle. He didn't know what new tricks the couple had come up with, but based on his experience, someone was probably going to be in trouble, and there was likely more than one!

"Alright, alright, welcome new student!"

After a round of applause, Yin Jin continued, "Although they are trainees, Her Highness the Crown Princess's level is beyond doubt. You should mainly let her lead them, understand?"

End-of-month summary

I should have written this as soon as it was published, but I've been too busy lately.

This work was signed on April 14th and released on the 22nd. It was a pleasant surprise, but also very rushed.

I really have to thank Fox for retrieving the book; otherwise, I might still be working on this out of pure passion (。ò?ó。).

New authors really don't know anything. An expert helped me analyze that before signing the contract, I didn't get a single recommendation for my 40+ words of content, which resulted in very few readers.

Honestly, there was nobody around back then; it felt like I was just stockpiling drafts every day.

I also want to thank the great '薪辏武' for giving me a recommendation vote every day. He is my only light, otherwise I would have been really disheartened.

Things really change after signing a contract and getting published. More and more people are reading, and the pressure is increasing. However, I will definitely maintain two updates a day with 6000 words, and I will absolutely not cut back on updates. You can rest assured about that.

May Day is also a holiday for working people. I wish everyone a happy holiday!

Chapter 216 A Test Battle

Today, Ning Huahua was still dressed in fiery red as always, with a thin sword decorated with red at her waist, but her hair was tied up instead of the long, loose hair of a young girl.
