From Princess in the Cold Palace to Empress in Heaven

Xiao Minghuang was moved.

but......

"How did you know about this matter?"

She looked at the white-haired man calmly.

Even she herself didn't know about this.

The white-haired man, or...the Immortal King Weiming, how did he know?

"Haha, since you are here, why bother asking?"

Immortal King Weiming smiled slightly, as if he was sure of victory, and spoke to himself.

Xiao Minghuang clenched her palms. She could indeed guess that the magic weapon that the white-haired man used to deduce her pregnancy and to transfer her here without her knowing should be the same one.

...but.

She was able to guess, but being honest with the other party was two different things!

Immortal King Weiming's attitude made her very uncomfortable.

Xiao Minghuang's eyes flickered, and after a moment he raised his eyes and looked at Immortal King Wei Ming: "So, what is the price?"

She certainly didn't think that Immortal King Weiming was paying a precious Chaos Treasure just to form an alliance with her.

Immortal King Wei Ming's eyes lit up for a moment when he heard this, and he seemed a little surprised: "Daoyou are so straightforward, so I won't beat around the bush..."

"At this auction, please help me kill the Immortal King Lifeng. After the success, we will divide the Lifeng Star Region equally, and offer the Yin-Yang Transformation Seal to me!"

Having said this, he paused, and cast his eyes on Xiao Minghuang, and said meaningfully: "The great calamity is approaching, and it may be difficult for the fairy to survive alone. How about you and I join hands to overcome the calamity together?"

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly. She could tell that Immortal King Wei Ming's words seemed to have a deep meaning and hint at something.

"Haha...you are joking, fellow Taoist."

"Fairy, please don't rush to refuse. To give birth to an offspring, you must need a lot of resources. The Purple Star Region is just established, so I guess it can't provide that much at the moment. If you agree to me, I will be there for you if you need anything in the future!"

"If you say that again, the previous agreement will be void!"

“No, no, no!” Immortal King Wei Ming said hurriedly: “Fairy, please don’t misunderstand me. I just want to give the child in your belly a home…”

"Nonsense, it makes no sense!"

Xiao Minghuang said these few words coldly, and fairy light burst out from his whole body, and he was about to leave.

"Fairy, please stay. I just spoke out of turn. Please don't blame me!"

Immortal King Weiming apologized repeatedly.

Xiao Minghuang turned his head, his expression extremely calm, as if what had just happened had never happened at all.

"How can I trust you?"

"Words are not enough, written evidence is needed!"

The words fell.

Immortal King Weiming waved his sleeves and a talisman flew out.

He raised his hand and pressed it on the talisman. Then his fingers cut through the air, and a blood-red word appeared and was imprinted into the talisman paper.

"I promise you that I will help you fight against the Immortal King Lifeng after the auction. You must give me the Yin-Yang Transformation Seal. If you break this oath, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"

Xiao Minghuang spoke, raised his palm and pressed it on the talisman.

Suddenly.

The golden light of the talisman bloomed, turned into tiny points of light, and disappeared without a trace. Invisibly, two silk threads seemed to stretch out, connecting Xiao Minghuang and the Immortal King Weiming.

"The Great Dao is my witness. Daoist friend, you can rest assured now!"

Immortal King Weiming chuckled softly, his expression was very relaxed, as if everything was going according to plan.

After all, if he was not absolutely sure, he would not dare to negotiate with the Immortal King Ziwei.

As for the strength of Ziwei Immortal King, he was not worried at all.

When he just entered the realm of Immortal King, he was able to kill the Immortal King Bufeng who had been in existence for nearly three thousand calamities. Although not much time has passed now, his realm must have stabilized.

He was already able to easily defeat the Immortal King Lifeng, and the reason he sought an alliance with the Immortal King Ziwei was just to be on the safe side.

He also wanted to take this opportunity to try to form a marriage alliance with the Immortal King Ziwei, but the other party strongly opposed it, so he did not mention the matter for the time being.

"Forget it, I'll work it out slowly later..."

"hehe..."

Xiao Minghuang smiled and said nothing.

Regardless of whether Immortal King Weiming is sincere or not, at least on the surface, she does have many advantages.

Especially, it was the promised Chaos Treasure, the Yin-Yang Holy Seal!

This is also the reason why Xiao Minghuang agreed to the other party.

However, Immortal King Weiming seemed to have some improper thoughts about her, which made her very unhappy.

Compared with the Immortal King Lifeng, the difference is obvious.

"The grand auction will be held in three days. I will inform my friends in advance. Please be ready to take action at any time."

"I see."

The words fell.

The pure white color around him dissipated like melting ice and snow, and Xiao Minghuang returned to the palace of the Immortal King Lifeng.

"Your Highness?"

"Ok?"

"Your Highness, why has he been in a daze since Li Chenzhu left? He can't be woken up even if I call him..."

Xu Xiuer looked at her with concern and couldn't help asking.

Xiao Minghuang turned his head and looked at Xu Xiuer, the news he had just heard emerging in his mind.

There was already an unborn life in her belly.

"Your Highness, are you okay..."

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Xiuer became more anxious and couldn't help but call out again.

"fine."

Xiao Minghuang finally shook his head.

The child in her belly is of course her own flesh and blood, but it is hard to say who the child's other mother is.

Mortals are pregnant for ten months, so they can infer the time of conception by the signs of pregnancy, but monks cannot do this.

Even those at lower levels, such as spirit seeds and cultivators at the God Transformation Realm, need to go through relatively long years or even decades before they can give birth.

For saints who have reached a higher realm and whose life level is closer to the Tao, it will take thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

As for examples of immortals giving birth to children, although there have been some, they are extremely rare.

Not to mention that conception requires the assistance of rare elixirs, just during the gestation period, a steady supply of large amounts of magical substances is required to allow the fetus to grow smoothly, otherwise there is a high possibility of stillbirth.

Furthermore, even when the time comes for delivery, the baby may not necessarily be born safely.

There was once an example where an immortal went through untold hardships and spent countless resources before finally giving birth to his own flesh and blood.

But during the delivery, because her own Dao was too powerful, it interfered with the true spirit of the fetus, and actually caused the child to be born with a defective true spirit. Even though he was born as an immortal, his realm of life stopped there because of the defective true spirit, and he was also a fool.

Therefore, whether it is an immortal or a mortal being of a higher realm, they will choose to teach a disciple who suits their own wishes and inherit their mantle.

"Whose child is this, anyway?"

Although she knew that the child's other mother must be one of Ye Ruoshui, Lin Wanqiu, Xu Xiuer, Luo Qianhua, and Sheng Bailan, she couldn't be sure who it was.

[Ding! The host has triggered a hidden function. Do you want to check? ]

Suddenly.

A cold electronic sound resounded in Xiao Minghuang's heart, which made Xiao Minghuang stunned for a moment.

"Check."

Her mind moved slightly.

The next moment, a panel that had never been seen before appeared.

[Pregnant offspring: 20% progress]

[Note 100: The host can increase the progress by communicating the origin with the object of bearing offspring, investing treasures containing innate power, and increasing his own control over innate power. When the progress reaches %, the offspring will be born and bring unexpected surprises to the host.]

[Note 2: During the pregnancy period, the system will activate additional random functions from time to time to help the host give birth to offspring smoothly.]

Xiao Minghuang was slightly surprised.

The system proposed three methods that could help her conceive. The first was to communicate the origin with the object of bearing the child...which actually meant that she could practice dual cultivation with the child's other mother.

"That's easy..."

As long as she continued to practice dual cultivation with Ye Ruoshui and the other five women and recorded it, she would be able to determine who the child's mother was through statistical analysis.

The second is to invest in treasures that contain innate power. She now has the Qianyuan Holy Cauldron and the Liuhe Holy Plate in her hands, which are both chaotic treasures that contain innate power.

As for the third one, Xiao Minghuang has not come into contact with it yet.

The most important thing is...

"System, what is the unexpected surprise after the child is born?"

Xiao Minghuang asked in his mind.

[Ding! Since it is a pleasant surprise, we will know it only when the time comes. Otherwise, it will not be a pleasant surprise. ]

Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly. It seemed that the system would not tell the truth.

But she didn't dwell on it, after all, it was better than having no benefit at all.

Moreover, the system also said that it would immediately activate additional functions. Xiao Minghuang hesitated slightly, and suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but look at Xu Xiuer.

"Your Highness."

Feeling Xiao Minghuang's gaze, Xu Xiu'er looked back at her.

"Xiu Er..."

She wanted to know who the child's mother was, so she started now.

Feeling Xiao Minghuang's gaze becoming hot, Xu Xiu'er blushed slightly and said angrily: "Your Highness, it's still broad daylight..."

After saying that, he turned his head away, not daring to look Xiao Minghuang in the eye.

"Xiu'er?"

She gently stroked Xu Xiu'er's smooth skin, her breath sweet as orchid.

Xu Xiu'er couldn't resist at all. She felt dizzy and nodded with a red face. She moaned and her body trembled slightly. She seemed to melt in Xiao Minghuang's arms.

"Hehe, good little girl, sister loves you."

Xiao Minghuang whispered softly.

Then, she picked up Xu Xiuer and walked into the light gauze curtain...

.......

Xiao Minghuang had a dream.

She felt that in this vast universe, there was something unspeakable, its existence was tightly locked in a corner of the universe and could not be described in words.

Even in any place, whether it is a dead star outside the universe or a secret place in the universe, once someone tries to describe its characteristics, describe its process, or even compare its form, they will be sensed by the endless power of the universe and then killed.

This unspeakable thing is so powerful and mysterious, as if hidden in the abyss of the universe, beyond human comprehension. Its existence is everywhere, but it cannot be perceived by humans. It is both the secret and nightmare of the universe.

Its appearance often means destruction and disaster.

Just like the way of heaven, it controls the changes and ups and downs of the destiny of all things in the world. It is the terminator of everything and the turning point of the old and the new. It represents the birth, growth and death of life.

Whenever someone mentions it, it always makes people tremble in their souls.

Of course, such horrors only happen to humans who want to touch and describe "taboos".
