"Woof"
Yunmian heard Huang Hou Niangniang ask her this, and was momentarily bewildered in her heart. Then she seriously looked at Huang Hou Niangniang's belly with a tilted head, carefully considering it.
Whether it's a male phoenix or a female phoenix, as long as it's the child of Queen Feng Huang, Yunmian will definitely like it. If she really has to choose one, Yunmian is actually indecisive. She thought and thought, looked puzzled, tilted her head, and asked "Can't I choose both?"
The Empress and the Female Phoenix Official who accompanied her on the other side of the immortal palace couldn't help but cover their mouths and smile.
The Empress Phoenix smiled and said, "If it were possible to have one boy and one girl, that would be the best. But usually, phoenixes like us rarely give birth to twins, so this possibility is too small. I'm already very happy to be pregnant after thousands of years."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but pick up Tuan Tuan and hug her tightly, thinking that she was lovely beyond measure. If only they could have another daughter just like Tuan Tuan in the future, it would be great. So, Empress Huang patted the board and said, "Even if it's a girl, as long as she's smart and lovely, who knows, maybe she'll grow up to be as gentle and elegant as you, and when you play together, you'll feel more at ease."
"Roar"
Yunmian heard Huang Hou Niangniang say happily, she also became happy, joyfully perked up her ears and rubbed against her chest.
The lady official watched them play happily, but couldn't help revealing a crying and laughing expression behind the beautiful couch.
The Empress Dowager liked Yunmian's gentle nature, but she had forgotten what she was like when she was young. The Empress Dowager's temperament would likely result in her future children being spoiled and unruly, regardless of whether they were boys or girls, and it would be difficult to raise another child as obedient and gentle as Yunmian, instead raising a spoiled brat.
At this time, Yunmian heard the words of Huang Hou Niangniang that the phoenix egg was very solid, and gradually became relieved. She was actually very interested in Huang Hou Niangniang's child, let out a breath and stood up, but her movements were still very careful, curiously approaching to listen and touch.
Don't mention it, Yunmian hadn't noticed before, but now carefully distinguishing, only to realize that the aura on Huang Hou Niangniang's body had indeed changed. Especially around her lower abdomen, Yunmian vaguely felt a small ball of spiritual energy inside, hidden among Huang Hou Niangniang's strong spiritual energy. Carefully sensing it again, he could even feel a slight movement.
"Wow, it's reacting!"
The Empress gently stroked her head, smiling and saying "It's still early now, but indeed there is a faint aura of the celestial. The Medical Immortal said that this has just formed into an embryo, and it will be a long time before it grows and hatches."
The Queen Mother of the West gathered up the Cloud Weaving Maiden.
It's strange to say, but she always felt that the egg in her belly had a connection with Yunmian. She hadn't been pregnant for so many years, and it just so happened that she became pregnant when Yunmian was living on Nan Yu Mountain. Before that, she had also heard Lady Feng say many things about fox spirits and marriage and childbirth. As the Empress was about to become a mother for the first time, although she was skeptical of Lady Feng's words, but since Yunmian was so lovely and the timing was just right, even if it wasn't really related to Yunmian, it was still a good omen. At the same time that she felt dazed by her pregnancy, she also grew more fond of Yunmian.
The queen paused for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Unfortunately, you and Wen Ting will be leaving this month. The phoenix egg still needs to be incubated for a while, it may take several years, until the little phoenix breaks out of its shell, it will be even longer. You probably won't see it now."
Yunmian naturally still wanted to stay by Huang Hou's side, but also knew that the empress was speaking the truth, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, hanging her head down.
The queen said gently, "However, after the phoenix egg is born, I will send a message to Qingqiu to tell you how to come over at that time. Then you can let Huo Guan send you over and come to see the phoenix egg and play with it together. How about that?"
"Uh-huh"
Yunmian heard this arrangement and immediately became happy again, happily saying "Thank you, Mother"
She wagged her tail and said with concern, "I'm going back to Qingqiu soon, you must take good care of yourself at Nanyue Mountain, don't work too hard!"
The phoenix queen gazed at Yunmian's eyes, which were sincerely worrying about her, and couldn't help but curve her lips in a smile. But then she thought that she would also miss Yunmian, so she said: "I know. When you return to Qingqiu, remember to take good care of yourself, tuck your tail tightly when sleeping at night, and don't overemphasize speed in your cultivation. It's not a one-day effort, it's more important to lay a solid foundation slowly. Remember to write me letters often, and come back to play whenever you have time."
"Roar"
Yunmian happily yet reluctantly responded with a "yes", dragging her tail to crawl into Huang Hou's arms, warmly nuzzling against her.
The queen also fondly licked the fur on Yunmian's body, and the two played together.
The remaining time in Nan Yu Shan was not long and soon came to an end. Wen Ting and Yun Mian had originally planned to return this month, but due to Huang Hou's pregnancy and Yun Mian's own reluctance to leave, they delayed for a few more days. By the end of the month, they finally had to return.
The Empress of the Phoenix had a joyful event, causing the Phoenix Palace to be in an uproar for several days. Fei Xia was guarded by Feng Zhu and the other officials so tightly that not even air could get through, but on the day Yun Mian returned to Qing Qiu, the Empress still personally came to the front of the palace to see him off.
The Queen Mother of the West held Yunmeng's hand and said with a reluctant tone, "Don't forget, once you arrive at Qingqiu safely, write to me immediately. Even on ordinary days when there's nothing special, we can still keep in touch often, I'll reply to your letters. When I have the chance, I'll personally go to Qingqiu City to visit you."
Yunmian nodded vigorously and said, "I will write to you often, and you must take care of your body too. When I return, I will tell you all about my situation with Wen Ting in Qingqiu City, don't worry."
In fact, they had already said many times in the immortal palace, but Fei Xia couldn't help but go through everything from start to finish again. After the two of them finished saying what they needed to say, Wen Ting took Cloud Sleep's hand from Phoenix Mother Empress and prepared to lead her onto the divine carriage.
Hu Qi had been waiting on the side for a long time, smiling and saying "Young Master, Yunmian Xianzi, get in the car, we should go back."
After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands and paid respects to Feng Zhu and Huang Hou, saying "Feng Zhu sir, Huang Hou empress, then we will take our leave."
Wen Ting and Yun Mian also bid farewell to Feng Zhu and Huang Hou, and after the ceremony was over, Wen Ting led Yun Mian onto the immortal carriage. The immortal carriage immediately took off, and the two of them sat side by side, with Yun Mian opening the curtain and waving goodbye until they were completely out of sight before sitting back down.
As soon as he sat back in his original position, Yunmian was hooked around the waist by Wenhui, who turned his face and lightly pecked him on the lips.
Yunmian didn't expect Wenhui to kiss her at this time, her face suddenly turned red, she blinked and asked "What are you doing?"
Wen Tingdao said, "We will be returning to Qingqiu soon. Qingqiu is a familiar environment for us, and it's different from Nanyue Mountain after all. I suddenly wanted to confirm again, fearing that being with you might not be real."
Wen Ting spoke seriously, but Yun Mian felt a bit embarrassed. She happily leaned over to hug Wen Ting, rubbing her ear against his neck for a while before separating.
Xianyu took less than a day to travel from Qingqiu to Nanyu Mountain, and it was the same on his way back.
Yunmian and Wenting returned to Qingqiu City Fox Palace, and the first thing they did was to see Master Hu and Mistress Huli.
The celestial car stopped outside the celestial palace. Yunmian had been studying in the Fox Palace for over a year and was already quite familiar with the Fox Master's celestial palace, but after returning again after eight months, he felt a sense of unfamiliarity and disconnection from his old haunt.
She walked hand in hand with Wen Ting into the immortal palace, only letting go of each other's hands when they were about to enter. The Fox Master and his wife were already waiting inside, and they came forward to pay their respects as usual. Yunmian felt that she was no different from before, but as soon as the Fox Master's wife saw her come in, her eyes lit up with surprise and delight, exclaiming "Mian'er, you really did give birth to a seven-tailed fox so quickly! Come here, let me take a look."
The hostess of the fox family beckoned to Yunmian with a wave of her hand as she spoke.
Yunmian Sheng's emergence with seven tails is also a big deal. Yunhe and Yunmian have written about it in the letters they sent back to Qingqiu from Nan'gu Mountain, but when Fox Master's wife truly saw her precious daughter-in-law with seven snow-white tails behind her, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She was very happy for the two of them, yet still somewhat surprised.
Yunmian walked over, transforming into a small fox and jumping onto the lap of Hu Zhuren, who was sizing her up. At the same time, she repeated the words she had heard from Xiangong earlier: "These two tails weren't grown through my own cultivation, oh! It's mainly because Empress Feng previously bestowed upon me over 200 years' worth of cultivation. Although I've already returned it, the tails seem to not be able to retract."
The mistress of the fox thought that she had learned from the letter that two children were in Nan Yue Mountain, and there was still a hint of fear in her heart. But after so long, she didn't need to think about it anymore. She just said, "Although this is true, if you don't have any progress yourself, it's hard to grow seven tails so easily. Not all foxes who are given cultivation by humans can grow their tails so effortlessly."
As she spoke, a hint of doubt did indeed flash across the Fox Lady's mind. Yunmeng was still young for a seven-tailed fox, and besides, she wasn't one of those rare foxes born with many tails.
But the thought only flashed through her mind, and she turned to see that Yunmian and Wenyin both looked quite tired. Afraid they would exhaust themselves, she hastily said, "You two have traveled a long way today, you must be very fatigued. No need to talk more here, why don't you go back and rest first? If there's anything on your minds, we can discuss it again tomorrow after you've rested."
"Thank you, mother."
Wen Ting emotionally clasped his hands together and said.
Yunmian was patted on the head by Hu Zhuren, and she also ran back happily, transforming back into human form, ready to go back to her room with Wen Ting.
She ran back, and without thinking much, the tail behind her naturally hooked up with Wen Ting's, Wen Ting instinctively hooked it back, and conveniently pulled Cloud Sleep's hand along, a whole set of actions that seemed perfectly natural.
The host and hostess of the fox family, who were still seated, both paused at this scene.
The fox host and his wife seemed to have no intention of disturbing them, they both remained silent, quietly watching as Wen Ting warmly escorted Yunmian away, and the two of them didn't seem to notice.
When Ting and Yunmian completely disappeared outside the immortal palace, Hu Zhuren's lips curled up, and she couldn't help but smile with restraint, saying "Ah ah."
She turned her head slightly with some delight and said to Hu Zhu, "Ting Er and Mian Er have been waiting in Nan Yu Mountain for several months. The relationship between the two of them seems to be a bit different from before."
The update speed is the fastest, hurry up and come!
