Douluo Continent: The Phoenix God Returns

Chapter 69 Third Brother Ye Xingyun

The following morning, at the Papal Palace.

Ye Li leaned against the papal throne, looking slightly tired as she reviewed the memorials, her left hand occasionally kneading her aching lower back.

"My back! They really don't care whether my small body can handle this frequency. If this continues... Ouch... It hurts so much."

"What's wrong, my husband?" Bibi Dong straightened her clothes and came to Ye Li's side, asking with concern. She was mainly concerned about her own comfort yesterday.

"My lower back is a little sore," Ye Li said, pinching her brow.

"Shall I give you a massage?" Bibi Dong sat down next to Ye Li and prepared to reach out and massage her.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Ye Li nodded and said that he was really struggling. In the past few days since he came from the Star Dou Great Forest to the Spirit Hall, he had not been in good spirits. He was drowsy every day and even his face was pale.

"I'm really not very good at handling memorials," Ye Li sighed as she continued to revise them.

"Everything takes time to adjust to; it will get better with time," Bibi Dong said softly.

"Dong'er, are you saying I won't have to grade these things anymore?" Ye Li asked with a sliver of hope.

"You're overthinking it. I mean you'll get used to it after you've corrected so many," Bibi Dong teased, covering her mouth.

"…………" Ye Li was speechless for a moment, and at the same time, the idea of ​​finding a successor came to mind.

"Husband, please ask me anything you want to ask," Bibi Dong said solemnly.

"There is indeed something troubling me, it's about Qian Renxue." Ye Li asked after thinking for a moment, because she found it hard to believe that she saw bloodstains on the bed that morning, which made her wonder.

"Qian Renxue is not my daughter. If she were, do you think Qian Daoliu wouldn't stop her?" Bibi Dong said, crossing her arms.

"Perhaps." Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to review the memorials. "By the way, Dong'er, I'm leaving the Spirit Hall in a few days."

"Where do you want to go?" Bibi Dong asked.

"Let the Heavenly Dou Empire undergo a change of dynasty ahead of schedule," Ye Li said calmly.

"Husband, is this one of your goals?" Bibi Dong reached out and lifted Ye Li's chin with her long, slender fingers.

"Uh... what else?" Ye Li asked, stunned for a moment.

"You don't need to hide it from me. Your real purpose is to find Qian Renxue." Bibi Dong knew this perfectly well. If Qian Renxue wasn't still infiltrating the Tian Dou Empire, Qian Daoliu would probably have brought her back immediately.

"One of my purposes, and more importantly, is to strengthen our power, so that I will have a greater chance of conquering the Douluo God Realm in the future," Ye Li said.

"My lord, whether or not we conquer the God Realm is not important to me. What is more important to me is you." Bibi Dong sighed and looked at Ye Li.

"Only one side can exist, us or the God Realm. My mother died at their hands, and I cannot not seek revenge. Moreover, the long-standing grudges between the Soul Beast Clan and the God Realm must end, even if it means sacrificing myself for the future," Ye Li said solemnly.

"I know I can't dissuade you, but I will stand firmly by your side," Bibi Dong said, shaking her head.

"Don't worry, I won't leave you so easily. For you and our unborn child, I won't risk my life," Ye Li said, holding Bibi Dong.

"Alright, you can get back to work now. By the way, are you coming to my place again tonight?" Bibi Dong stood up and looked at Ye Li.

"Hiss... Hmm." Ye Li nodded resignedly. He didn't know why Bi Ji suddenly told him today that she had returned to the Star Dou Great Forest and that she had nowhere to go at night. Bibi Dong's place was the best place for her to go at night.

"Alright, I've prepared a surprise for you tonight." After receiving Ye Li's reply, Bibi Dong turned around and went to cultivate.

"It seems I'll have to spare another person to handle these memorials."

Without hesitation, Ye Li used the spirit of the silver dragon to condense a second avatar from the skull. Unlike Li Ye, this avatar possessed exceptional intelligence and was adept at handling trivial matters and government affairs. It also served as the brain of Ye Li and the others, but it did not inherit any of Li Ye's cultivation.

"From now on, your name will be Ye Xingyun, and I will be your eldest brother. Your second brother will be Li Ye," Ye Li said, patting Ye Xingyun on the shoulder.

"Yes, brother." Ye Xingyun said respectfully.

"Third brother, I'll leave these government affairs to you. I'm really not good at handling these things," Ye Li said.

"Leave these to me," Ye Xingyun said with a smile.

"Thank you for your trouble. I'll be leaving now." Ye Li patted Ye Xingyun on the shoulder and then left the Papal Palace.

Ye Li felt relieved after leaving the Papal Palace. Mainly, he couldn't let his cultivation speed be delayed. He then went to his own cultivation room to absorb the soul power left by Bi Ji in his body, as well as the divine power left by Gu Yuena and Bibi Dong.

……

night.

When Ye Li arrived at the couple's bridal chamber, she saw Bibi Dong wearing a lace nightgown, leaning against the bed. Ye Li stared at her, her eyes wide with disbelief. Bibi Dong was truly amazing.

"Dong'er's wife, this...is so beautiful!"

Ye Li's gaze swept over Bibi Dong until it landed on her long legs clad in black stockings. She couldn't help but swallow hard and unconsciously moved closer.

Bibi Dong reached out her slender hand and pulled Ye Li close, whispering softly in his ear, "My husband, please leave me a child!"

Ye Li: "!!!"

"Dong'er, why are you so eager to have a child?" Ye Li asked.

"Hmph!" Upon hearing this question, Bibi Dong couldn't help but snort coldly, "What woman in this world doesn't want to be a mother?"

She liked Ye Li and naturally wanted to give birth to a son for him as soon as possible to solidify her position in Ye Li's heart. Neither Bi Ji nor Gu Yue Na, whom she had only met once, were as beautiful as her. If she wanted to have a place in Ye Li's heart, she had to be the first to give birth to a son for him.

"Dong'er, although I don't know why you want a child, but..."

Before Ye Li could finish speaking, Bibi Dong suddenly shook her head and pounced on him, entwining with him in a passionate embrace. This time, Bibi Dong had put in a lot of effort to have a child. Seeing how much Bibi Dong longed for a child, Ye Li gave in to her.

The whole room instantly felt warm and cozy…
