The war in the Crimsonbright Realm was a war that involved millions of Celestial Immortals and even Empyrean Gods and True Immortals. It wasn't a war that could be concluded in a day or two.
After breaking through to the True Immortal level, Ning's Ki Refiner power was comparable to that of an ordinary Daofather's. Even without controlling his Heaven Punisher, he was still terrifyingly powerful, and he was able to force the Seamless Gate back repeatedly. The Seamless Gate had no choice but to retreat!
The war had reached a stalemate. There was no need for Ning to keep fighting, and so he now had some free time.
Within the Pure Yang treasure, the Violetdawn Pearl, was a world of its own. Ning had moved all of his clansmen into this world, while he himself was here as well. He was seated on a stone bench in front of a courtyard, a look of worry on his face.
"Look at senior apprentice-brother. He hasn't said a word, but his face has changed." One of Ning's fellow disciples from the Black-White College laughed at him.
"He's about to become a father. Of course he's different." The spirit-beast, the Whitewater Hound, was lying there next to him, smiling as it looked at Ning.
"Ning, son, don't be impatient. Just wait. You've already waited for several years. What's a little bit more to it?" The Whitewater Hound laughed.
"Right." Ning nodded.
His senior apprentice-sister was a Celestial Immortal; giving birth to a child was naturally very safe. However, when he thought about how his child was about to be born into this world, Ning felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness and unease. Would he be able to take care of it? The Great War of the Three Realms had already begun. Would he be able to protect his child?
Rumble!
Right at this moment, a series of ripples appeared in the void. The dimensional barriers of this Pure Yang treasure seemed to be completely useless, as someone was able to casually break through them from the outside.
"Who is it?!" Ning was shocked. His child was about to be born. Could it be that some major power was trying to seize this opportunity to act against him?
"Look at how pale your face is. You're a bit too nervous, aren't you?"
An indifferent voice with a hint of laughter rang out in the air. Immediately after, Cheng Hao, who was dressed in black emperor robes, and the peerlessly beautiful Lin Xi suddenly appeared in this small world.
"Master? Your disciple greets you, Master! " Upon seeing Cheng Hao appear, Ning was instantly overjoyed. He didn't expect that the birth of his child would alarm his master. This surprised him.
"Ji Ning's master? Doesn't that mean he's Emperor Haotian?" The faces of Ning's friends and family instantly changed, and they all hurriedly fell to their knees.
"Greetings, Great Emperor!"
"Get up!" Cheng Hao smiled. With a thought, everyone was lifted up by an invisible force.
"Master, now that the War of the Three Realms has begun, you must be very busy. How come you have the time to visit your disciple?" Ning walked forward.
"Master's grand disciple is about to be born. No matter how busy I am, I can still spare some time!" Cheng Hao patted Ning on the shoulders, indicating for him not to be nervous. "That Dao-companion of yours is a Celestial Immortal. Nothing unexpected will happen!"
Ning nodded. Only now did he turn his gaze towards the woman by Cheng Hao's side, who was so beautiful that he almost didn't dare to look straight at her.
"Master, is this your wife?"
Hearing this, Cheng Hao was startled. He turned to glance sideways at Lin Xi, only to see her blink and turn to look at him as well.
Cheng Hao laughed rather awkwardly, but in his heart, he gave Ning a thumbs up. This kid really did have good eyesight. He was able to tell at a glance that this was his future wife.
"Uh … not yet. You can just call her uncle-master!"
Not yet, but in the future, she might be! Ning naturally understood what his master meant. When he looked towards Lin Xi, his face was filled with respect, and he respectfully addressed her as' uncle-master '.
Lin Xi's expression was as calm as ever. She seemed to have not heard Cheng Hao's words at all. She nodded calmly towards Ning, then stood to one side without any other reaction.
Cheng Hao was delighted by Lin Xi's attitude. He didn't agree, but he didn't reject either. From the looks of it, it wasn't completely impossible for the two of them to be together.
Cheng Hao could more or less guess Lin Xi's feelings. It wasn't that she didn't have any feelings for him, but she had achieved the Dao through her obsession. Before her brother's return, she didn't have any extra energy to bear other obsessions!
"I heard that you've been pregnant for more than five years?" Cheng Hao, who was in a good mood, started chatting with Ning.
"Yes, I've been pregnant for five years and two months. If you didn't say anything, I would've been worried to death!" Ning hurriedly nodded.
"That's a good thing. What's there to be worried about? After all, you're both Immortals. The time you have to give birth to your offspring will naturally be much longer than that of ordinary mortals. You have to know that the longer the baby is in the womb, the greater its potential and potential after birth. In the future, it might even surpass you, its father! "
Cheng Hao laughed loudly. In his heart, he calculated that in the future, if he were to have a child with Lin Xi, most likely just the pregnancy alone would take thousands of years, right?
Fortunately, Cheng Hao wasn't weak; Lin Xi wasn't able to read his thoughts. Otherwise, if she were to know what he was thinking, most likely today, the two of them would've engaged in an apocalyptic battle!
Right at this moment, suddenly …
"Your child pays his respects to you, mother. Eh? Where's my father?" A clear child's voice rang out from within the room. Even the surprised cries of the maidservants could be heard.
Ning, who had been nervous, was instantly startled. "My child … has been born?"
Right at this moment, the voices of Ning's Dao-companion, Yu Wei, and the maidservant rang out from within the room. The two seemed to be rather frantic.
"Girl, don't be in such a hurry. Put on some clothes first."
"Madam, the clothes we prepared are too small …"
Bang!
Right at this moment, the door to the room flew open, and a bare-bottomed toddler with pigtails on his head came flying out.
Cheng Hao and the others naturally could tell at a glance that this toddler was a little girl. The toddler's skin was so soft and tender, it seemed as though water would drip from it at any moment. Her eyes were filled with intelligence, and there was a divine flame tattoo on her forehead.
Flames swirled around the toddler, making her seem like a celestial child of fire.
"An innate fire spirit. In the future, when you train in the Grand Dao of Fire, there will be virtually no bottlenecks at all. Not bad, not bad!" Looking at the toddler, Cheng Hao laughed loudly, saying 'not bad' twice in a row.
The toddler was currently happily chasing after the wooden door that had just flown out. After smashing it with a kick, she giggled as she turned around, looking at Cheng Hao, who had just spoken.
"Eh? Are you my daddy?"
Cheng Hao had a startled look on his face. Even Lin Xi couldn't help but turn her gaze towards him. For a moment, the atmosphere became rather awkward.
Cheng Hao chuckled, then waved his hand. A set of white armor suddenly appeared out of nowhere, then landed on the toddler's body. Based on her size, it transformed into a fiery red dress.
"Kid, I'm your Grandmaster. This person is your daddy!" After helping the toddler put on the dress, Cheng Hao pointed at Ning and chortled.
