When I woke up, the entire cultivation world was talking about my master.

Chu Xianlan: "?"

He turned his head blankly, as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing.

Baby?

Chu Xianlan didn't know whether to be surprised by the two words he heard, or surprised that the half-demon could speak.

Hug? Bag? Daddy... oops, or something else?

Did Master really speak? Or was he hallucinating?!

Yi Chen gently traced the curve of his cheek with his knuckles, his eyes once again revealing tenderness and infatuation.

A myriad of emotions.

Such an unrefined expression might not have been appropriate on the face of the venerable Immortal Lord Jixue in the past.

However, half-demons do not care about propriety and shame, and only act according to the instinctive desire for a partner in their bloodline. All the thoughts that are usually deliberately hidden are exposed.

The thoughts of half-demons are far more straightforward and dangerous than ordinary people can imagine.

Touch, possess, savor all the breath and sound of the other, or drag them into your own territory and do as you please, and nothing can see even a trace of their color anymore.

Yi Chen impatiently sniffed the boy's neck deeply.

It smells good.

She was covered in his scent, from her hair to her fingertips, every part of her was exactly what he loved. Her eyes and brows were indescribably beautiful, and just looking at her was enough to have a fatal attraction for him. So cute, so well-behaved, how could she not be his baby?

This is his person.

Hug me if you want, kiss me if you want, call me if you want.

Then he called out again with affection:

"……Baby."

This time, Chu Xianlan heard it very clearly.

Because Yi Chen whispered it in his ear.

Thin lips gently kissed behind and on the earlobe, a low, husky voice accompanied by warm breath brushing against the ear, speaking soft words that were actually very aggressive. Chu Xianlan straightened up, feeling a tingling shiver run down her spine.

I'm so embarrassed I want to die.

If I hadn't been being held in your arms, I probably would have already slid down.

I've never heard of such a title before in all my years.

The younger ones called him "brother," and his fellow disciples called him "senior brother." When he suddenly heard these two words from Yi Chen's mouth and realized their meaning, a distinct sense of shame exploded in his mind. The emotions surging in his heart almost burst forth, and he retreated in a panic.

The half-demon went even further, reaching out to hold his hand, looking at him, and earnestly calling him "baby."

Chu Xianlan dared not meet Yi Chen's gaze at all; her eyelids were lowered, and a strong burning sensation rose on her cheeks.

"Please...please stop shouting."

Trying his best to ignore his frantic heartbeat, Chu Xianlan stared at the ground, knowing that his reaction was somewhat pathetic, but he couldn't control it.

After all, someone was just gloating, thinking that they had gained experience and could skillfully use tricks to deal with half-demons, but in reality, they were the ones being manipulated.

The way Master is now is worse than... not being able to speak at all.

His response was the sound of his tail slapping the ground three times.

It's as if it's asking, "Why?"

The half-demon didn't bother to investigate Chu Xianlan's use of polite formalities, because he had something more on his mind—why was his partner always afraid to look at him?

Not only did it avoid eye contact, but it also kept looking for opportunities to escape?

Does she not want to belong to him?

Or do you not want him?

An indescribable anxiety swelled in Yi Chen's heart. They should have the most intimate and inseparable relationship in the world. They must belong to each other wholeheartedly, their hearts should beat at the same frequency, their souls should merge into the same mist, and their bodies should fit together perfectly like mortise and tenon joints, with each other in the other, never to be separated, and without needing to distinguish one another.

The thought of her partner resisting her drove the half-demon to the brink of madness.

Yi Chen picked Chu Xianlan up and probed her sea of ​​consciousness with his divine sense. A mere aura was not enough; he was eager to find proof of the strength of their relationship.

Then, the half-demon was stunned.

They have no official status.

Apart from a thin master-disciple contract, there was nothing else.

His baby is not his baby.

How can this be allowed?

The snake's tail, suspended in mid-air, froze for a moment. The half-demon was filled with turmoil, as if struck by lightning.

Chu Xianlan was still dazed when his wrist was pressed down and he was knocked down. His sluggish brain processed for a moment, and his gaze met those deep gray eyes that were churning with emotions. A large shadow covered him, and he was kissed again.

Yi Chen suddenly kissed her very hastily and roughly, as if he were on fire. Chu Xianlan's mouth was suddenly filled with his kiss, and her mind was a complete mess. She really couldn't figure out where his anger came from.

It was less of a kiss and more of a wild animal marking its prey. The boy could only respond awkwardly with whimpering sounds, occasionally letting out some embarrassed nasal noises. The saliva that he couldn't swallow in time spilled from the corner of his lips and was carefully eaten by Yi Chen.

As they kissed, Chu Xianlan shuddered.

He felt a hand rubbing his abdomen through his clothes, the large palm pressing and circling repeatedly as if confirming something, the pressure neither too light nor too heavy... but it was very strange.

"Master, what are you doing...?" Chu Xianlan was confused and reflexively opened her misty eyes to look down.

Yi Chen kissed his eyelids, then said, "Lay an egg."

?

"What!?"

Chu Xianlan's eyes cleared with fright.

I almost couldn't catch my breath.

Lay, lay, lay eggs!?

His master had only spoken four words to him in total, yet each word was more explosive than the last, directly breaking through the upper limit of his understanding of half-demons.

Chu Xianlan got goosebumps. The scalding hot hand, which was extremely noticeable, was still rubbing his abdomen. The action seemed to be really looking for a suitable place to lay an egg through his belly, and there was no joke about it!

Is this for real?!

"No, Master! I... I'm a man! I can't lay eggs!"

He panicked and, regardless of whether the half-demon could understand the meaning, gestured wildly as he explained.

Yi Chen frowned, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Nothing works again? Nothing works at all?

If Chu Xianlan knew what he was thinking at that moment, she would definitely cry out that she was wronged.

The disciple, who was usually the most obedient and compliant, always did whatever his master said, was truly unable to do so this time!

In the current understanding of half-demons, their partners should bear children with them, leaving behind their own mark and proof, without any question of whether it is feasible or not.

If there's no official status, then let's give birth to someone with one.

Thinking of this, the half-demon felt a sense of anticipation. His slightly bright eyes sparkled with a straightforward and excited light, as if he couldn't wait to complete this task.

"No, this won't do, you really can't!" Chu Xianlan was so frightened that she felt like a fish on a chopping board, wishing she could jump up on the spot. She quickly cupped the half-demon's face and tremblingly pecked at his lips.

"Master, please don't think about things like laying eggs, okay...?"

As expected, this compliant and cooperative attitude brought great pleasure to the half-demon.

But that's it.

Yi Chen appeared docile, tilting his head to nuzzle the boy's palm.

Chu Xianlan's hands were extremely beautiful. They were very white, with long, slender fingers. The backs of her hands were clean and flawless, and her fingertips and nails had a light pink tinge, like peach blossoms just sprouting in early spring.

Yi Chen lowered his head and kissed each finger carefully, finally biting the knuckle of his index finger. His extremely infatuated and affectionate expression clearly showed his love and affection. Chu Xianlan's heart pounded as she watched, and the fingertips that had been kissed felt as if they were being electrocuted.

The half-demon narrowed his long, vertical pupils and said in a low voice:

"not good."

The cool snake tail slowly coiled upwards. It was already unfair for a half-demon to have an extra tail, but to use the tail to do things for him was even more unfair.

For example, right now.

Realizing what was about to happen, Chu Xianlan's breathing became completely erratic. She struggled futilely for a few seconds before giving up. Her long eyelashes trembled like fluttering butterflies as she pleaded with her eyes closed, "Don't... don't use your tail..."

"Can I use my hands... Master, please use your hands..."
