I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2202 Pregnancy Sequelae
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Prime Minister Jin Xuan's voice was trembling, as if something was stuck in his throat, and he asked this question stutteringly.

He originally wanted to question Liu Jun as to why he was so unscrupulous in destroying the Platinum Temple, a holy temple that symbolized the supreme glory of the divine realm, beyond all recognition. But when he saw Liu Jun's appearance at this moment, his mind went blank and he forgot all his questions.

Hearing this, Liu Jun couldn't help but roll his eyes, with a playful smile on his face: "I drank too much water and felt bloated, isn't that okay? You, the Prime Minister, are too nosy."

"No...it's okay." Prime Minister Jin Xuan's voice trembled even more. He tried hard to stay calm, but the shock and confusion on his face could not be concealed.

"Okay, why are you all surrounding me? Have I become an animal in the zoo? Get out of here and go about your business!" Liu Jun waved his hand impatiently, his tone carrying a hint of majesty and unquestionable authority.

Everyone was embarrassed when they heard this, but they did not dare to disobey the order of the God King. They bowed and left one after another, dispersing quickly like the tide.

"Brother, what are you going to do with your child, um, no, with this 'Water Spirit Holy Fetus'?" Xu Baoer hurried forward and asked. Before she finished her words, she noticed the sharp eyes cast by Liu Jun. She was so scared that she quickly changed her words, stuck out her tongue and made a face.

Liu Jun rolled his eyes helplessly and said with a wry smile: "What can I do? Give me some ideas!"

There was a hint of annoyance and helplessness in his tone, and it was obvious that he didn't know how to solve this problem.

Shui Yuexin listened at the side, frowned slightly, and suggested again: "How about I help you take it out? Although it is more dangerous, it is better than having a big belly like you are now."

Hearing this, Liu Jun sighed and shook his head: "It's not that simple. This is not just relatively dangerous, it's extremely dangerous. This 'Water Spirit Holy Fetus' is now connected to my blood. If I forcibly take it out, I'm afraid it will resist and struggle. By then, the water spirit energy compressed to the extreme will riot, and the power is unimaginable."

Having said that, Liu Jun ignored the two of them and walked slowly towards his bedroom with his bulging belly and staggering steps.

His unsteady steps, coupled with his now bloated figure, really made him look a bit like a pregnant woman, attracting the attention of the guards around him.

Fortunately, these guards all knew the majesty of the God-King and did not dare to stare at him. They would just glance and then quickly lower their heads.

Shui Yuexin looked at Liu Jun's receding back, feeling mixed emotions. She whispered to Xu Baoer, "I feel like your brother is not in the right state right now. He seems to not want to live anymore."

Xu Baoer also looked solemn when she heard this: "Pregnancy dryness syndrome? Although I have never seen it, my grandfather mentioned it before. He said it is an extremely rare disease. Patients often have unstable emotions, irritability, and even have thoughts of suicide."

When Liu Jun heard what Xu Baoer said, his body suddenly stiffened, and he turned around again and glared at her fiercely, as if he was blaming the little girl for talking nonsense. But then, he shook his head helplessly and continued to walk forward with heavy steps.

"You're the one suffering from depression!" Liu Jun muttered secretly in his heart. Although he knew that Xu Baoer meant no harm, he was feeling unusually depressed and irritable at the moment.

As Liu Jun's figure gradually disappeared from sight, Shui Yuexin and Xu Baoer looked at each other and saw the worry and helplessness in each other's eyes.

They knew that this sudden "pregnancy" storm would not only change Liu Jun, but also trigger a series of problems.

The reconstruction of the Palace of the Gods progressed quickly, especially the Platinum Temple. Under the supervision of Prime Minister Jin Xuan, reconstruction began on the same day.

As time went by, the news of Liu Jun's pregnancy spread quietly throughout the entire divine realm like a spring breeze blowing across the earth. Even the distant and solemn front camp in the northern border caused an uproar, and the soldiers and generals were discussing it in private.

"What? Liu Jun is pregnant? Come on, he's not some rare animal that can be hermaphroditic?" Upon hearing the news, the tiger was stunned and his beard trembled slightly. It was obvious that he couldn't believe this sudden news.

"This news should be true. They saw it with their own eyes. The scene was really unbelievable." The ape man shook his head, his eyes full of emotion, as if he had witnessed that incredible scene with his own eyes.

"There is something pregnant in the belly. I heard it's a holy water body." Yao Guangxiao spoke slowly, with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

Yao Guangxiao's wisdom is no less than Chu Liuying's, and he also has unique insights into various strange stories.

"What is the Holy Water Spirit Body?" Tiger scratched his head in confusion, his eyes full of doubt.

"To put it simply, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth gathered to a certain level. After countless years of gestation, it gradually gained consciousness and eventually formed a unique form." Yao Guangxiao explained, his eyes becoming deep. "It's just that I, Yao Guangxiao, have lived to such an old age, but I have never seen spiritual energy condense into a fetal form and magically run into Liu Jun's belly. The mystery behind this is really puzzling."

Yao Guangxiao was puzzled by this matter, his brows were furrowed, as if he was in deep thought.

At this time, Liu Jun was lying quietly in his luxurious and peaceful bedroom, staring at the ceiling with his eyes blankly, as if the whole world had nothing to do with him. His heart was filled with confusion and fear. He felt at a loss about what to do with this sudden change. From that day on, time passed quietly like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed. During this month, Liu Jun experienced a mental journey from shock, denial to acceptance. He began to try to communicate with the water spirit fetus in his body, trying to find a solution.

However, no matter how hard he tried, the water spirit body seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, remaining silent and not giving him any response. Liu Jun could only silently bear this heaviness and loneliness, constantly wandering in confusion, not knowing what to do.

"Your Majesty, someone from the Heavenly Palace came to negotiate and wants to exchange Mo Wushang back."

Cabinet Minister Che Lei, holding a heavy memorial, passed through the heavily guarded palace gates and finally came to Liu Jun's heavily guarded bedroom. He knocked on the door and said.

During this period, Liu Jun's palace seemed to have become an isolated island. Apart from him, the cabinet minister, only Chu Liuying could enter and exit freely. Even Prime Minister Jin Xuan, an old and important minister in the court, could only stand respectfully outside the door and convey his wishes through the guards if he wanted to see him.

"come in"

Che Lei gently pushed open the door of the bedroom, and saw Liu Jun lying lazily on the wide dragon bed, one hand covering his round belly and the other hand casually resting on the edge of the bed.

"We can exchange, but what about sincerity?" Liu Jun's voice was a little unhappy, as if he didn't buy into the proposal of the Catholic Temple. "Are they just talking about exchange? If they are not sincere, what's the point of exchanging?"

Upon hearing this, Che Lei respectfully presented the memorial and said, "The Catholic Temple said that we should propose the conditions and they will go back to discuss it. Your Majesty, please see..."

Liu Jun took the memorial, flipped through it casually, and threw it aside. He picked up a piece of paper from the bedside, handed it to Che Lei, and said, "I need these things, so you can talk about as much as you can. As for Mo Wushang, if they have enough benefits, let them take it back. Keeping it is a waste of our food."

Che Lei took the paper and looked at it carefully, only to see the names of various rare medicinal herbs listed densely on it. He was slightly surprised, because all of these medicinal herbs were rare in the world and ordinary people could not get them at all.

"Your Majesty, these medicinal herbs..." Che Lei asked hesitantly.

Liu Jun sighed and said, "These herbs are not for my use, but for Shui Yuexin. Tell the people in the Heavenly Lord Temple that as long as they can deliver these herbs to me, we can discuss Mo Wushang's matter."

Hearing this, Che Lei immediately understood the key to this negotiation. He then responded respectfully and left the palace.

With Che Lei's departure, the palace returned to peace. Liu Jun looked at the tightly closed door, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

With the carefully prepared medicines and unremitting efforts of him and Xu Baoer, Shui Yuexin's meridians have gradually recovered their vitality, flowing with a faint warm luster, heralding the revival of vitality.

According to his previous careful plan, once Shui Yuexin's damaged meridians were repaired, the next key step would be to use a large amount of divine pills to stimulate the generation of spiritual energy, so that this huge amount of spiritual energy would flow into Shui Yuexin's body like a trickle, nourishing Shui Yuexin's exhausted source of spiritual power, and helping her step by step return to the peak of the Divine King realm of the past.

However, the spiritual energy required by the God King Realm is so huge that it cannot be matched by ordinary things. Even the extremely precious God Pills require tens of thousands of pieces to barely meet this demand. This is not just about ability and technology, it is also a test of resources.

Because of this, Liu Jun turned his attention to the negotiation table with the Heavenly Lord Temple. He secretly calculated that if he could use Mo Wushang, a late-stage Half-Step Divine King, as a bargaining chip to exchange for rare medicinal materials that would be enough to restore Shui Yuexin's strength, it would undoubtedly be a very cost-effective deal.

After all, although Mo Wushang was strong, there was still a big gap compared to Shui Yuexin's peak period in the middle stage of the Divine King Realm. Liu Jun had his own calculations in his mind, and he had calculated this account very clearly.

The day of negotiation arrived as scheduled, and the atmosphere on both sides was tense and solemn. Liu Jun's side, led by the wise and brave Chu Liuying and the calm and experienced Che Lei, looked determined and well prepared, vowing to gain the greatest benefits at the negotiation table.

The Catholic Temple sent a deputy temple master named Zhang Wuchen to fight. Zhang Wuchen was said to be well-known for his wisdom in the Catholic Temple. His style of doing things was both ruthless and cunning, which made the negotiation even more uncertain.

As both parties took their seats, the negotiation officially began. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere, and every word and every look contained a hint of competition and temptation.

Liu Jun's side, relying on their deep concern for Shui Yuexin's condition and accurate grasp of the need for medicinal materials, took every step carefully, trying to find a breakthrough in Zhang Qingchen's tight defense.

Zhang Zhang was not to be outdone. He seemed to understand why Liu Jun wanted so many medicinal herbs. He negotiated conditions in other areas, but refused to give in on these herbs.

The negotiation lasted for six days, and Liu Jun even wanted to kick the person out, and only then did the negotiation end.

Although the amount of medicinal herbs that the Catholic Temple promised to provide was not a lot, it was within Liu Jun's expectations, so the negotiation was considered a success.

Now that there are enough medicinal materials, Liu Jun will naturally start to work on refining the elixir. After all, if Shui Yuexin can return to the middle stage of the Divine King realm sooner, he will have an extra powerful fighter.
