Regarding the question of whether one thousand lives are enough to beat Honkai Impact 3rd.

The one most likely to be implicated is her fiancé.

—Otto Apocalypse.

His former fiancée has become a traitor to fate, to be hanged, and even during her trial, she claims to have fallen in love with another woman in a foreign land.

This was certainly a heavy blow to Otto at that time.

However, he cared more about the other party being spared from death than about this, so he didn't have the energy to show this emotion.

Karen and Otto had already parted ways due to their differing views on human experimentation.

Even so, there was no reason for her to say such things knowing that it would cause a chain reaction, unless there was a real need for it.

Karen was, after all, a saint who, even in feudal times, would reflect on the correctness of the Eastern Expedition and oppose the sale of indulgences by Destiny. Even if she was disheartened by Otto's choice, she would not retaliate in this way.

Su Qing'an commented:

"But considering Karen's final choice, she probably didn't like anyone, or to be more precise, Kaslana's family rules and her beliefs outweighed these emotions."

Or perhaps, that person never realized how much weight they held in the hearts of some people.

Su Qing'an was quite curious about what the other person would think if they knew that Otto's five-hundred-year-long obsession and persistence all stemmed from her. He thought for a moment and said:

"I remember that both Destiny and Anti-Entropy were preparing for a moon landing."

Fu Hua replied:

"Hmm, judging by the timeline, they should have discovered what was there by now."

Su Qing'an snapped his fingers, and an agate-like gemstone landed in his palm. He said:

“I don’t like Otto Apocalypse being grateful to me; it would make me feel very strange.”

The Crimson Iris Immortal understood the implication and said:

"So, you want him to believe that you resurrected Kallen?"

"If we plant something on the moon beforehand, we could indeed get that result, but it's too much trouble to come up with such a method."

"Why not just use the Manas consciousness to insert a false memory?"

Su Qing'an remained silent.

That makes sense, but isn't it a bit impolite to use this on just anyone?

But judging from his wife's indifferent and matter-of-fact attitude, her dissatisfaction with Otto did not seem to have disappeared with the passage of time.

Su Qing'an opened his eyes. The lights in the room seemed to be extinguished as if shrouded by a curtain. He belatedly realized that during the conversation, the nearby floor had turned into primordial active soul steel, wriggling and replacing the sofa.

At that moment, the little girls outside were completely unaware that a brand-new red velvet sofa had been placed behind them, and they were still happily eating their midnight snack.

He said quietly:

"We'll talk about this another time."

"So, why did you move the sofa to the master bedroom?"

The girl, without changing her expression, pressed his face firmly against her thigh and whispered:

"Is it wrong that children shouldn't hear adults discussing serious matters?"

Su Qing'an's cheek was gently caressed by cool fingers. He was forced to smell the slightly damp fragrance in the soft texture of the matte black stockings, which was the result of the other party having just come out of the bath and putting on pantyhose before drying off the water droplets.

But compared to that, Fu Hua's answer was what concerned him more.

"It's not that it's wrong..."

"But it's only been two hours since we left the bedroom, hasn't it?"

The girl's lips curled slightly as she casually unbuttoned his shirt, glancing at his slender collarbone. Her long, delicate fingers brushed against the tip of his nose as she spoke softly:

"What? You're tired of it, aren't you?"

Su Qing'an grasped her knees and said softly:

"I just don't want to keep using the Black Abyss White Flower for weird reasons."

Fu Hua felt a gentle, feather-like force gradually brushing against her ankles and calves. A blush crept onto her previously composed face. She pursed her lips and said:

"What does it matter? Seele would be happy to know."

"Besides, I'm not really interested in this kind of thing, it's just..."

Su Qing'an guessed:

"Jealous?"

The girl responded without any hesitation:

“A little bit, but not because of that.”

She touched her flat stomach, her fingertips brushing over her abs and vertical navel, as if gently tapping her inner abdomen, and said softly:

"Have you counted how many times it was filled in?"

Do you remember how many pieces of bread you've eaten?

Although this was Su Qing'an's first reaction, Manas, tracing back through his memories, quickly came to a conclusion: He said:

"13,561 times."

Fu Hua rarely showed a troubled expression. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and a thoughtful look appeared on her usually cool face. She said earnestly:

"But I'm not pregnant yet..."

"Is it because there isn't enough?"

A girl's rational analysis:

"Although it's possible that it might be cured after another 10,000 times, at our previous rate it would take another hundred years, which is far too slow."

Su Qing'an felt that the logic in his wife's words was very subtle.

Normally, if an embryo hasn't formed after more than ten thousand attempts, it can only mean that there's something wrong with either of their bodies. Increasing the dosage won't help; the only solution is to address the root cause. But the other person is suggesting doubling the dosage...

Even with the Black Abyss White Flower as a safety net, it's still an incredibly daunting undertaking.

He comforted him:

"As for children, don't we already have Xiaoxi?"

"Moreover, if it's just about wanting this, I can use the Black Abyss White Flower to cultivate an embryo with both of our genes and place it inside your body, and the result will be the same."

As Su Qing'an gradually became a soul being, he no longer cared as much about the form of flesh and blood reproduction as before, especially after recently comprehending the secret of the birth of life.

In contrast, Su Muxi's life, born from the intertwining of the consciousnesses of both, is more in line with the definition of offspring for a soul life.

Fu Hua replied:

"Xiaoxi, she's a little slow."

Of course, that's not the point.

The immortal tore open his clothes and sighed:

"Moreover, Xiaoxi developed intelligence and physical form too quickly at that time. This child also went directly through the normal human infancy period, so I didn't feel like a mother at all."

"As for Black Abyss White Flower, it feels strange to use the Key of God in such a place."

Su Qing'an remained silent.

Isn't it strange that they used this to reset my physical condition?

Isn't this a bit of a double standard?

Furthermore, if it is a being born from the union of two people, it is clearly impossible for it to grow up like a normal human being.

In other words, even if a daughter or son were to be born, the wife would probably not feel like a mother.

Of course, if she's after the ritualistic feeling of ten months of pregnancy, it's understandable.

Su Qing'an said:

"I think we should trust science."

"When the time comes, we'll have the scientists from Anti-Entropy help test our body data, and then we'll probably know the exact reasons and the corresponding solutions."

"Blindly increasing the amount of change is meaningless."

Su Qing'an's heart was as still as a deep well. He seemed to be pondering the mysteries of the universe and the origin of mankind. His indifferent expression revealed his calm temperament without any need for restraint.

But this behavior, along with the lingering red marks and bite marks on the edge of his collarbone where most of his clothes had been undone, and his rosy lips, only made the person who was patiently listening to him even more interested.

The girl's eyes were slightly upturned, her gaze shimmering with tears. She gathered her hair with her slender hand, leaned down, and pressed her lips to the edge of her earlobe.

And then, in the next breath.

Su Qing'an pursed his lips, feeling the moist, soft body slowly moving back and forth inside his ear, as if licking an ice cream, sending shivers down his spine through his brain. During this process, the other person's hand gradually began to play tricks, causing his previously extinguished desire to begin to revive...

This completely disobedient behavior resulted in the room remaining silent all night, except for the occasional sound of running water.

That night, Mebius, who was on the verge of tears because he couldn't find the other person, slept in the same room with Su Muxi and Xiao Xuan. After the three little ones got to know each other, they showed no signs of being shy. After a bit of playing around, they fell asleep in a crooked position on the big bed.

Little White, who really wanted to sleep soundly in his own little nest, had to fulfill his promise to become Mebius's body pillow because Mebius had won so many games against him.

Well, Xiaobai wasn't unhappy about it; in fact, she was a little touched.

Because at least Mebius had an open and aboveboard bet with him, and this was a case of accepting the consequences of a bet.

But Su Muxi on the other side is a complete capitalist, masturbating whenever she wants and leaving it aside when she doesn't!

She's such a scumbag.

She's the kind of naturally heartless, scumbag woman who's truly innocent and carefree.

Therefore, in comparison, Mebius's demeanor appears upright and amiable.

Apart from Su Muxi, everyone else in the family treated Xiaobai quite well, especially the serious Jiang Rongyue, who would usually hand it snacks like dried fish as a reward when petting it.

Although Li Shishi was good at getting things for free, she was very gentle and spoke very sweetly.

As the owner of the convenience store at Chaoxian University, Xiao Xuan would occasionally bring back some of his earnings—snacks—to share with Xiao Bai.

Moreover, since the two little ones were about the same size, she wasn't very interested in petting them, which made the cat, who was suffering from being petted repeatedly, feel very relaxed.

As for Su Qing'an and Fu Hua on the other side, they take turns cooking for it. The former is also the one who gave it the source of immortality. They are both great people.
