"Don't you like big ones?" Yiyi looked at him angrily.
Lu Ye's expression turned serious. "Rumors in the pugilistic world are pure nonsense!" Hu Po, who was on his shoulder, made a sound as if he had something to say.
"Shut up!"
Hu Po obediently crouched down.
After chatting for a while, Yiyi suddenly showed a worried expression. "Is it … dangerous this time?"
The previous incident could not be concealed, so the cultivators of the Nine Prefectures who were training in the Wushuang Continent also knew the general situation. They knew that within half a year, a group of strong enemies would attack. At this time, letting them return to the Nine Prefectures was a means of protection.
"It's not dangerous!" Lu Ye pinched Yiyi's cheeks. It felt good to the touch as always, and he looked confident. "If they dare to come, I will kill them all!"
Yiyi obviously did not believe him. After being together for so many years, how could she not know Lu Ye's personality? She pursed her lips and said, "You must protect yourself."
Lu Ye nodded repeatedly. "I know, I have three lives in one body, I will definitely cherish my life!"
As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something and took out an item from his storage ring and handed it to Yiyi.
Yiyi took it and asked in confusion, "What is this?"
"Ten Thousand Soul Banner." Lu Ye told her about the mysteries of this banner. When Yiyi heard it, she immediately showed a look of disgust and hatred. Not to mention that she was a spiritual body, any normal cultivator would not have a good impression of such an evil thing like the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
"What is this for?" Yiyi asked. "Take it back to the Nine States, find a place where there is no one, and call Little Nine. This is given to you by Lu Ye, just leave it there and don't worry about it." Lu Ye instructed.
The souls sealed in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner had already lost their physical bodies. It was not easy for Lu Ye to deal with it, so he directly destroyed it. Those souls would definitely die, and there was no use for them by his side. He originally wanted to bring it back to the Nine States and give it to Little Nine. There was a secret realm in the Nine States called Tianyuan City, and there were souls inside. Perhaps it could be settled down. Now that Yiyi was returning to the Nine States, there was no harm in letting her pass it to her.
Yiyi thought about it and nodded obediently.
An hour later, Yiyi reluctantly said goodbye to Lu Ye and walked into the Nine-Five Hall with Hu Po.
Li Baxian and the others were not in a hurry to return. They were still hunting everywhere.
The Corpse Clan was obviously planning to leave this realm at the end of the time limit, so Lu Ye did not see them.
This was also the choice of many cultivators of the Nine Regions. After all, no one knew if they would have the chance to come to the Wushuang Continent again in the future. Naturally, they had to cherish it.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his gaze and looked at a certain spot in the crowd that was bustling towards the Nine-Five Hall.
Amidst the crowd, a sweet-tempered woman stood there quietly, looking at him from afar with a smile on her face.
Their eyes met, and Lu Ye smiled.
But in the next moment, his expression turned to one of astonishment. His gaze moved down from the woman's beautiful face to her bosom.
His breathing suddenly quickened, and his body instinctively moved. In a flash, he stood in front of the woman.
Lu Ye's gaze was fixed on the swaddling clothes in the woman's arms. In the swaddling clothes, a white and clean baby was sleeping soundly with its eyes closed. Its appearance was so delicate that it seemed to be dripping water. It was unknown what it was dreaming of, but the corners of its mouth kept twitching, revealing a smile.
Lu Ye's mouth suddenly felt dry. He looked up at Hua Ci, then down at the baby. After a few times, he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"A boy or a girl?" Even in the face of death, his expression did not change, but at this moment, his voice trembled.
"A girl." Hua Ci smiled slightly.
Lu Ye nodded like a fool, and kept saying, "A girl is good, a girl is good …"
He repeated it a few times, then held his breath and leaned closer to the swaddling clothes. Looking at it from a close distance, he could clearly see the fine white hair on the child's face, small nose, faint eyebrows, and gently moving lips …
"Like you." Lu Ye stared at the child, his voice was so soft that it was a mess. He was afraid that his voice would be a little louder.
"Really?" Hua Ci smiled and shook her head. "Not really."
Lu Ye grinned. "Then she's like me!" Suddenly, his face turned serious. "No, no, no. A girl should be like you, pretty and beautiful."
Hua Ci's eyes curved. She was clearly in a good mood. This was the first time she had heard Lu Ye praise her like this. She held the swaddling clothes forward. "Want a hug?"
Lu Ye reached out with his trembling hand, but the moment he was about to touch the swaddling clothes, he pulled back. He hurriedly put away the Pan Shan Saber hanging from his waist into his storage ring, then disappeared in a flash.
Hua Ci was completely confused.
Ten breaths later, Lu Ye flew back. This time, he had changed into a clean set of clothes. Only then did he rub his hands and reach out to Hua Ci.
The moment he hugged the child, Lu Ye felt as if he was hugging an entire world. An extremely complicated and indescribable feeling welled up in the depths of his heart.
It was an indescribable emotion.
He opened his two large hands and held the little swaddling clothes up and down. He did not dare to use any more strength. Feeling the vitality of the little life in his arms, the smile on his face was like a blooming flower.
"She smells so good," Lu Ye whispered.
Hua Ci replied, "Milk babies are all like this. This is the smell of milk."
Lu Ye suddenly realized something. He vaguely felt that something was not quite right, but he could not tell what it was.
Perhaps it was because it was uncomfortable being held by someone else, but the sleeping child suddenly twitched the corners of her mouth and began to cry loudly.
Lu Ye instantly felt as if he was facing a great enemy. He did not know what to do. He looked to Hua Ci for help. "What's going on? Did I hurt her? "
Hua Ci lowered her head to look at the child, a puzzled expression on her face. "I don't know. Why is she crying?"
Lu Ye was dumbfounded. 'I asked you? You actually asked me? Who am I supposed to ask?'
He was a bit flustered. He guessed, "Is she hungry?" Hua Ci nodded. "Then she must be hungry."
"Then hurry up and feed her." Lu Ye hurriedly handed the child to Hua Ci. He was reluctant to part with the child, as if he had just given away his most precious treasure.
Hua Ci took the child and turned to pass her to a woman beside her. The woman carried the child with great familiarity and bowed apologetically to Lu Ye. Then, she flew out in a flash, clearly looking for a secluded place to nurse the child.
Lu Ye looked at the woman's departing figure, then at Hua Ci. He was dumbfounded. "This … why did you …"
"What's wrong?" Hua Ci blinked innocently. "The child!" Lu Ye said.
"It's my child. I'm going to feed it!"
Lu Ye's body trembled, and he froze on the spot. It was as if his soul had been sucked out by the Myriad Soul Banner. His head slowly drooped. A bolt from the blue!
No wonder he had a strange feeling just now! It was only now that he finally realized it!
The child … was too young!
It had been almost two years since he ascended to the Constellation Realm. In other words, the last time he saw Hua Ci was two years ago. A woman was pregnant for ten months. If that was really his child, it shouldn't be so young. It should be at least a year old.
However, a baby in swaddling clothes was at most three months old.
But how could he have thought so much just now? All his attention was drawn to the child the moment he saw it.
No wonder Hua Ci said that the child didn't look like her! How could it be like her?
"What's wrong with you?" Hua Ci looked at Lu Ye in confusion. Then, she suddenly realized something. "You don't think that the child …"
Lu Ye looked up and glared at her angrily. Hua Ci covered her mouth. "You really think that the child …"
"Haha …" Lu Ye forced out a stiff smile, grabbed Hua Ci's arm, and flew into the sky.
A moment later, in the heavy coffin where Hua Ci used to cultivate, Lu Ye slapped it hard. "If it's not your child, why are you holding it?"
"I thought it was cute, so I just wanted to hold it …"
"You wicked woman, you are deliberately making fun of me!" "I am not!"
"How dare you still be so stubborn!"
This time, Lu Ye was truly infuriated. She ruthlessly taught Hua Ci a lesson. It could be said that she did not show any mercy. Only after teaching Hua Ci a lesson that made her obedient did she let her off.
She led Hua Ci back to the Nine-Five Hall. Before they parted, Hua Ci said, "You have to think of a nice name for a girl."
"What do you mean?" Lu Ye looked at her from the corner of her eyes.
Hua Ci rubbed her belly and said, "It'll come in handy the next time we meet."
"Don't give me that!" Lu Ye would never trust this woman again.
"Who knows?" Hua Ci pursed her lips and smiled. She didn't say anything else. She walked down the passage and slowly disappeared.
Watching her leave, Lu Ye couldn't help but feel a little lost.
Although she had made a mistake this time, she still had to think of a few nice names. Who knew, they might come in handy in the future.
After pondering for a while, Lu Ye left the hall and flew up into the air.
In the blink of an eye, she was out of the Wushuang Continent and in the vicinity.
Other than her, the rest of the nine constellations of the Nine States were scattered around here. Although according to Lu Ye's intelligence, it would take about half a year for the enemy to arrive, it was still necessary to take precautions.
After greeting the others, Lu Ye also found a spot and sat down cross-legged on a meteorite, waiting silently.
Time passed. Less than two months later, the Missing Moon Immortal returned with the eight constellations of the Nine States.
She didn't stop and continued to rush toward the Nine States.
Logically speaking, it would be best to replace her at this time. After all, it was too difficult to rely on one person to transport the constellations. However, the others didn't have the experience of driving a planetary ship. Moreover, the Missing Moon Immortal had already traveled between the two worlds and was familiar with the route. Therefore, she was the most suitable person to transport the constellations.
Another two months later, the second batch of constellations arrived at the Wushuang Continent.
At the same time, in the depths of the starry sky, a planetary ship much more luxurious than the silver fish was rushing toward the Wushuang Continent.
The scale of this planetary ship was larger than Su Yuqing's, and there were hundreds of cultivators on it.
However, there weren't so many cultivators on the planetary ship at this moment. There were only about 20 people on the planetary ship. Half of them were at the Early-stage of constellation, while the remaining seven were at the Middle-stage and three were at the Late-stage.
This planetary ship was the one that set off from the Qingli Dao World to the Wushuang Continent.
