Many children, many blessings; the twelve ancestral witches forced marriages throughout the primordi

Early the next morning.

When Lin Xuan woke up, Fairy Caiyun was still asleep.

She looked very peaceful while sleeping.

Her long hair was spread on the pillow, and she was breathing evenly.

The dull complexion that had remained on her face due to the previous injury had all faded away.

Instead, it has become a healthy, luminous white.

The effect after the meridians are fully unblocked.

Lin Xuan did not wake her.

He got up quietly, dressed, and prepared to go out for some fresh air.

Just as I pushed open the door—

A strong fluctuation of laws emanated from next door.

It's not a water system.

It's not fire-based either.

Yes—musical rhythm.

The rules of music are pure to the extreme.

Notes danced in the air, one by one.

Each note is heavy, carrying a power that stirs the heart.

Lin Xuan's expression changed.

"A maiden!"

He rushed to the door of the next room in three quick steps.

Chang'e was already standing guard outside the door, her face deathly pale.

"My lord! My sister Su Nu—she seems to be going into labor!"

Lin Xuan pushed the door open.

The sight in the room stunned him for a moment.

Su Nu sat on the bed, her hands covering her stomach.

Countless transparent, thread-like things floated around her body.

That is the manifestation of the laws of musical rhythm.

Each "thread" is emitting vibrations at a different frequency.

Together, they form an unnamed melody.

But this piece was not played by Su Nu.

It was the baby in her belly that was "singing".

"Lin Xuan..."

Su Nu's face was covered in sweat, and her voice trembled.

"The baby...the baby is moving...I can't control it..."

Lin Xuan quickly walked to the bedside and grabbed her hand.

"Don't be afraid. I'm here."

He used his divine sense to probe into the body of the woman.

The fetus is absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy at an astonishing rate.

Unlike Mi Fei's case, this child wasn't absorbing water-based spiritual energy, but rather—

sound.

All sounds.

The sounds of talking, breathing, wind blowing through the curtains, and even the faint humming of spiritual energy flowing through the room.

All sounds are absorbed by the fetus and transformed into nourishment for the laws of rhythm.

"Was this child cultivating the Dao of Music even in the womb?"

Lin Xuan gasped.

Su Nu is the ancient goddess of music.

Her children inherited this legacy, and even surpassed it.

Su Nu cultivated for tens of thousands of years before reaching the threshold of the Great Path of Music.

The baby was already moving inside before it was even born.

"My husband, my stomach hurts so much..."

Su Nu gripped Lin Xuan's hand tightly, her nails digging into his flesh.

Lin Xuan quickly activated the Wood Element Laws, channeling the life force into Su Nu's body.

The first wave poured in—

The fetus also absorbed the life force.

"My little darling, that's for your mother, not for you!"

Lin Xuan shouted at Su Nu's stomach.

His response was an even more intense vibration of musical laws.

The entire Moon Palace Wonderland was shaking.

The petals of the moonflower orchid were shaken off one by one.

Fine cracks appeared in the roof of the Crystal Pavilion.

Chang'e paced anxiously at the door.

"What should we do? What should we do... Should we call Sister Houtu over?"

"Shout! Call everyone over here!"

While stabilizing Su Nu's body, Lin Xuan communicated with the system in his mind.

"System, what's going on?"

"Ding! The fetus is detecting the awakening of its innate musical body. The awakening process requires a large amount of musical law source. It is recommended that the host provide an external source of musical law to reduce the burden on the mother."

What is the origin of musical scales?

Lin Xuan thought for a second.

He took out the Heavenly Sound Jade Flute from his pocket.

This is a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure that was previously awarded by the system.

It was originally played as wedding music for Su Nu, and she has carried it with her ever since.

"Su Nu, can you play the zither?"

"I...I'll give it a try..."

Su Nu gritted her teeth and reached for the guqin by the bedside.

The moment her fingers touched the strings—

The strings automatically emitted a buzzing sound.

She didn't play it.

It is the fetus that is controlling the guqin through the mother's body.

A tune that no one had ever heard before began to play.

The melody is distant and vast, carrying a sense of grandeur, as if the world had just been created.

Each note that falls creates a golden ripple in the air.

The ripples became more numerous and denser.

finally--

The ripples converged to form countless, visible "strings".

Golden strings spread out of the room, through the walls of the Moon Palace Wonderland, and into the sky above the Pangu Palace.

Pangu Hall.

Inside the main hall, Dijiang and Zhurong were having morning tea.

"Brother, this tea smells delicious—"

Zhu Rong was speaking when the teacup in her hand suddenly trembled.

A rich musical rhythm permeated the hall.

The two ancestral shamans raised their heads at the same time.

Above the ceiling, countless golden strings appeared out of thin air.

Each one vibrates on its own, producing sounds of different pitches.

"Is the thirteenth brother's little brat about to be born again?"

Zhu Rong put down his teacup, his face full of excitement.

Dijiang stood up.

"Let's go. To the Moon Palace."

"Wait, there's something else—"

Zhu Rong pointed to the sky outside the window.

Red.

The sky turned red.

It's not the morning glow.

It is a calamity cloud.

A massive cloud of tribulation, glowing with a dark red light, was gathering above the Pangu Palace.

Each flash of lightning carried an ancient and heavy rhyme.

"Innate Tribulation?"

Dijiang frowned.

This wasn't the first time in the Pangu Palace that the birth of a person with an innate divine body had triggered a heavenly tribulation.

But I can't help feeling nervous every time I see it.

If the storm clouds are too fierce and injure the mother and child, it will be troublesome.

"Fifth Brother, go and inform the others. I'll go check first."

"Alright!"

Zhu Rong dashed out in one leap.

Dijiang took a deep breath.

He looked up at the ever-growing calamity cloud in the sky.

But a smile spread across his face.

"Another baby has arrived, thirteenth brother."

"You're quite the prolific father."
