like congealed blood, but now it glowed with warmth. Inside, the blood clots had solidified into an ancient totem.The dragon head curls into clouds, its body like a curved water droplet, four claws o...Jiang Qiyun returning home so early was highly unusual. He said he came to find Mu Wanchen to discuss something, but ended up being asked by my brother to pick me up.

I was a little dubious of his statement: “You haven’t been following me, have you”

"Do I have that much free time" he asked, gracefully landing by the bedside of You Nan and Yu Gui.

He leaned down to look at the two babies, reaching out to gently push away Younan's fingers: "...Is this little one hungry again"

I took out a bag of breast milk from the fridge, warmed it up, and muttered to myself, “It’s really not easy. The Emperor actually noticed that. Not bad, not bad.”

He chuckled lightly, preparing to withdraw his hand, but You Nan grasped his fingers.

He was slightly taken aback, staring down at Younan's eyes with a hint of surprise.

"...What are you doing" I was a little nervous.

Yunan had been injured after all—one of his souls was damaged, and Jiang Qiyun had filled the gap with one of his own. I've always worried that there might be aftereffects.

Jiang Qiyun's hair fell down, caught in Yu Gui's hand beside him. He didn't seem to notice, still staring intently at You Nan.

"...This little thing's eyes, they seem a bit different."

My heart skipped a beat, and I hurried over to pick up Younan and examine him carefully.

You Nan's gaze immediately shifted to my face, and she even smiled. So cute, what's different

"Don't scare me, last time Bai Wu Chang also said he could see... Seeing things isn't that unusual, is it His soul belongs to you."

Jiang Qiyun smiled and gently drew her hair back from Yu Gui's hand: "The soul of the Son of God becomes more stable and more compatible with the body as it grows, but it's rare for someone like him to be born not long ago and already have such a clear divine consciousness... He knows everything."

"What do you mean" I looked at Younan who was grinning at me.

Jiang Qiyun walked over, gazing down at his child with a condescending smile. He reached out and gently tapped Younan's forehead: "Little one, since you know everything, grow up quickly so you can protect your mother and sister..."

Younan closed her eyes slightly, and when she opened them again, I saw a familiar glimmer in her eyes.

His eyes were strikingly similar to Jiang Qiyun's.

That coldness and aloofness, that knowingness and indifference, were all the same…

"You, are you saying that Younan can understand us" I asked in surprise.

Jiang Qiyun slightly narrowed his eyes and chuckled softly, "Probably... just ask him when he can speak, won't you know"

My heart was pounding. Should I not treat him like a baby

A warm sensation came up my arm, I reached out and touched it, time to change his diaper... Oh, he's just a little baby! No matter how clear his mind is, he's still a little baby who needs someone to take care of him eating, drinking, pooping, and peeing.

Jiang Qiyun smiled lightly and returned to her room. Granny felt the chill dissipate and carefully walked in. "Xiao Qiao, he's gone"

"...just back to my room."

"Every time I feel his aura, I get very nervous... Let me take this, you go keep your husband company. It feels like you two haven't seen each other in ages." Grandma took the diaper from my hand.

It's not that exaggerated to say we're gathering less and parting more.

My nights are almost always filled with him.

Jiang Qiyun found Mu Wanchen to talk about something related to the Ghost Princess.

"Zhu Weiti's current identity is Qi Kexin. This woman is under secret protection. Her family knows a lot of secrets, and Lin Yanhuan... also... indulges her quite a bit." I said resentfully.

This ghost princess really knows how to pick people! How come she found Qi Ke Xin

As Lin Yanhuan said, even if Qi Keqin is arrogant and domineering, she has nothing to do with the yin-yang circle. How could she become Zhu Weiti's dwelling

“People who are mentally fragile and dark are prone to attracting bad things. Perhaps this woman did something that just attracted something sinister.” Jiang Qiyun opened my drawer and took out the peach wood box from inside the Ming lock.

"Are you going to take these two boxes" I blurted out.

He was slightly taken aback. "What's wrong"

"...That, could you leave one for me" I asked softly.

"What are you here to do" he asked, his brow furrowing slightly.

"Don't ask so many questions, just leave one for me." I reached out to grab it.

He chuckled and dodged out of the way, "Say something nice, and I'll leave you one."

"...Husband, leave one for me, alright" I gritted my teeth, this guy was getting more and more stingy.

He smiled and leaned in, his breath warm on her cheek. “Almost,” he murmured.

“Don’t be so stingy, you promised me.” I reached out to grab it.

He let me take one, then grabbed me and pressed me against the table, kissing me deeply. In a low voice, he whispered in my ear, “Zhu Weiti wants to build a ghost city in Mu Wanchen’s territory, where she and her followers can hide... I need to make sure things go my way first..."

"Hmph... It's all your mercy that caused this trouble..."

Jiang Qiyun gently held my earlobe and chuckled, "Rewarding good and punishing evil is one of the underworld's responsibilities. I am merely following suit... Besides, if I were not merciful, how could I have spared you trembling beneath me To allow a little girl like you to take advantage of my kindness and even dare to defy me"

My lower back was aching from the laptop, and I couldn't help but lean against his neck and arch my back to get away from the desk.

He chuckled softly, "Huh" His tone was full of interest, clearly... misunderstanding something...

Such a posture, bringing oneself to his lips, easily sparks wild flames.

A handful of flames like lotus.

The blaze bloomed, and even on the comfortable bed they were too caught up to care. They just rolled together into each other.

After all, it wasn't night, so I couldn't linger. It felt like a hazy dream within the clouds. When I woke up, the sunset streamed in through the window. Jiang Qiyun was gone. He had taken a wooden box with him, leaving one behind in the drawer for me.

The phone on the bedside table was buzzing incessantly, with several missed calls from Lin Yanqin.

"Ugh..." I rubbed my temples.

"Xiao Qiao Oh my, you finally answered the phone. What did you tell my older brother He asked me about Qi Ke Xin—"

"Where are you Come to my place and let's talk about it." I said as I got out of bed.

"Good!"

"Huh" I was taken aback, and then footsteps sounded outside the door.

The doorbell rang twice, Lin Yanqin twisted open the door and smiled as she poked her head in: “I’m right downstairs.”

"en mild and silent, just like my brother said, he seems to be thinking about something."...Who calls him the Heavenly Venerable of Saving All Beings, most compassionate and merciful, whom else would y...
