Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 420 Extra Chapter: Five Little Greens!

The goddess of life gave birth successfully.

So, Zhu Ziyang brought his five wives, Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, Qian Lingyi, Zhang Lexuan, and Fifth Huan'er, to the Goddess of Life to visit the Goddess of Life who had just given birth.

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Inside the God of Life Realm, Zhu Ziyang and the others encountered the God of Destruction. At this moment, the God of Destruction was no longer the gloomy and silent god he usually was. He had a rare smile on his face, and his lips were full of happy joy.

"Thank you, Ziyang!" The God of Destruction's smile widened as he saw Zhu Ziyang and his group, and he spoke to Zhu Ziyang with utmost sincerity.

"You're welcome, it's only right!" Zhu Ziyang was somewhat surprised by the God of Destruction's seriousness, because this was the first time the God of Destruction had called him by his name; in the past, the God of Death had always addressed him by his divine name. Now, the God of Destruction was calling him by his name directly, which meant that the God of Destruction truly considered him one of his own. Therefore, Zhu Ziyang could guess what the God of Destruction would say next.

"Can you not leave the realm of gods? I need your help, and the realm of gods needs you too!" The God of Destruction said directly without beating around the bush, which was very much in line with his character.

"..." Zhu Ziyang fell silent for a moment. Just as he had guessed, the God of Destruction had indeed asked him to stay in the God Realm. Zhu Ziyang understood the God of Destruction's intentions, but he had already promised Ilex, so he could only shake his head and refuse, saying, "I'm sorry, this is something I've already decided!"

"..." Upon hearing this, the God of Destruction's face flashed a hint of disappointment, but he did not insist. He nodded and said, "Alright then, I won't force you any further! A-Lu and the child are inside, and the Goddess of the Four Seasons is taking care of her. You may go in. I still need to go to the central hub of the God Realm for my shift, so I won't personally entertain you."

The God of Destruction first made way for Zhu Ziyang and the others, pointing them in the right direction, and then left on his own.

"The God of Destruction is truly a workaholic!" Jiang Nannan remarked with some emotion as they watched the God of Destruction depart. "His wife has just given birth and needs care, yet he remains solely focused on his work. I don't know whether to pity the Goddess of Life or be angry at the God of Destruction!"

"This is a matter between the two of them, it has nothing to do with us, so let's not meddle," Zhu Ziyang said thoughtfully after a moment's thought. "Besides, how can you be sure of the Goddess of Life's attitude towards this? What if this is what the Goddess of Life requires?"

"Uh..." Jiang Nannan paused, then shook her head vigorously and said, "Anyway, if it were me, I definitely wouldn't let you go to work, I would make you stay with me all day until I get tired of it!"

"Oh, it seems Nan Nan's real intentions are not what they seem," Zhang Lexuan chuckled meaningfully.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Nannan retorted, but her eyes were fixed on Zhu Ziyang, and the misty water almost made Zhu Ziyang drown in it.

"Ahem!" Zhu Ziyang could only cough dryly, saying somewhat helplessly, "We'll talk about that later, later. Let's go inside first!"

This topic can't be discussed any further, because Zhu Ziyang noticed that not only was Jiang Nannan staring intently at him with longing in her beautiful eyes, but Ma Xiaotao, Qian Lingyi, and Wu Huan'er were also looking at him with the same gaze, because they, like Jiang Nannan, longed to have a child of their own with Zhu Ziyang.

Unfortunately, this was not something Zhu Ziyang could simply wish for. The difference in strength between him and his wives was too great, or more precisely, there was a difference in their life levels. The possibility of them conceiving a child was extremely low, almost entirely dependent on fate.

The girls understood that this matter was too difficult, so they didn't press the issue any further and followed Zhu Ziyang into the God Realm of Life.

"You've arrived." Inside the Realm of Life, the Goddess of Life leaned against a lush tree shaped like a large bed. Upon seeing Zhu Ziyang and the others enter, she greeted them with a smile. Her aura was very peaceful, and her complexion was rosy, showing no signs of having just given birth.

"Congratulations, Sister Green!" Zhu Ziyang said, while Jiang Nannan and the other five girls immediately surrounded the baby, clamoring to see the little one.

"Ah Chun, bring Qingqing over here." The Goddess of Life listened to Jiang Nannan and the other girls chattering, her face full of helplessness, and called out towards a green curtain.

A woman dressed in a green dress, with exquisite features and a temperament similar to that of the Goddess of Life, stepped out from the curtain. In her arms was a green swaddled baby, from which one could feel faint but steady breathing. This woman was the Goddess of Spring among the goddesses of the four seasons, a direct descendant of the Goddess of Life, and one of the many second-level gods in the divine realm.

"Lord Death!" Upon seeing Zhu Ziyang, the God of Spring immediately called out respectfully, then quickly handed the child in his arms to the Goddess of Life before quietly retreating.

Zhu Ziyang immediately moved closer, placing himself between Jiang Nannan and Zhang Lexuan, and saw the new life that the goddess of life and the god of destruction had jointly conceived.

To be honest, Zhu Ziyang was somewhat disappointed with this child conceived by two innate deities.

It's too ordinary, really too ordinary. As the child of two god-kings, this baby in front of him is nothing special except for being very healthy. Zhu Ziyang didn't even sense any extra spiritual power from him. If he didn't know the Goddess of Life's character, Zhu Ziyang would have suspected that this child was one she picked up from the human world.

"Sister Green, is the baby's name Qingqing? Is it a boy or a girl?" Jiang Nannan asked softly, gazing at the baby sleeping soundly in the arms of the Goddess of Life.

"Yes, Xiao Zi and I planned this a long time ago. If we have children in the future, we'll name the boy Xiao Lan and the girl Xiao Qing." The Goddess of Life looked at the baby in her arms with eyes full of love, and would occasionally reach out to touch her little face.

"That's a girl, hehe, girls are great, she'll definitely be a gentle and kind beauty like her mother in the future!" Jiang Nannan reached out to touch the baby and said with a soft laugh.

However, Little Qing seemed to be very sensitive to the scent of strangers. As soon as Jiang Nannan's jade-like fingers touched her, she immediately woke up and opened her eyes.

"Wow! Qingqing's two eyes are different colors!" Fifth Huan'er exclaimed in surprise. Zhu Ziyang also saw what she was talking about. He finally saw something special about this baby: heterochromia! To be precise, her left eye was purple and her right eye was green, just like her parents.

However, although Xiao Qing's eyes are special, they seem to be just different in color, without any other special features. They don't have Huo Yuhao's advanced mental power, nor do they have the abilities that other special eyes should have. It's as if she's just wearing colored contact lenses.

"Sister Lü, Xiao Qing seems..." Zhu Ziyang carefully chose his words, "seems a little..."

"Isn't it a bit too ordinary? It doesn't seem like my and Xiao Zi's child." Before Zhu Ziyang could finish speaking, the Goddess of Life understood what he meant and said with a light laugh.

"Uh..." Zhu Ziyang paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's right, that's what I meant."

"Xiao Zi and I had anticipated this outcome. After all, with the absence of the Creation and Annihilation Law, it's already a stroke of luck that we were able to bring life into this world," the Goddess of Life said with a sense of detachment. "Although the baby didn't inherit our abilities, she's still a healthy baby. Even if her aptitude is ordinary, what does it matter with Xiao Zi and me here!"

"That's true." Zhu Ziyang nodded in agreement immediately upon hearing this. Although Xiao Qing's aptitude was quite ordinary, her parents were both God-Kings. Just based on that alone, she had already won by a huge margin. She was born at the finish line—that's her for sure!

"When are you planning to leave?" the Goddess of Life asked Zhu Ziyang.

"At the earliest, in a month," Zhu Ziyang said.

"Alright, I will definitely see you off in person!" the Goddess of Life promised.
