Chapter 217: The Queen is Pregnant!
Moreover, Fa Ma and the others had heard of the Supreme Alliance, a recognized hegemonic force in the Black-Corner Region, with a Dou Venerate powerhouse overseeing it.
Joining the Supreme Alliance was undoubtedly a better prospect for them than staying in the Jia Ma Empire.
After handling his official matters, Xiao Feng spent some quality time with Yun Yun and Ya Fei, deepening their relationship.
Since Yun Yun and the others had been pregnant for three to four months, Xiao Feng refrained from intense activities with them and instead taught them the art of playing the flute.
A Few Days Later
Chu Yun Empire – The Snake Tribe's Royal City
After the Snake Tribe relocated to the Chu Yun Empire, Xiao Feng personally used his Stone-Stone Fruit ability to construct a brand-new royal city for Queen Medusa.
Compared to the previous one in the Tagor Desert, this new royal city was far grander and had defensive capabilities that were at least ten times stronger.
"Leader, your great kindness is something we will never forget!"
Under Queen Medusa's somewhat complicated gaze, four stunningly beautiful women gracefully knelt on one knee before Xiao Feng in unison, bowing respectfully.
Seeing this, Xiao Feng chuckled and waved his hand. "Elders, there's no need for such formalities. Please rise."
That's right!
The mature beauties before him were none other than the four great elders of the Snake Tribe.
Originally, these elders were near the end of their lifespans, appearing as white-haired old crones. However, after absorbing the Demon King's Blood bestowed by Xiao Feng, their cultivation directly advanced to the rank of One-Star Dou Ancestor, and their youthful beauty was restored.
Though the Snake Tribe gaining four Dou Ancestor powerhouses was a great fortune, Queen Medusa couldn't help but feel stifled. After all, she had almost been burned to death by the Green Lotus Core Flame in her struggle to break through to Dou Ancestor, while these four elders had done so effortlessly.
The Big News
"Leader! We have some great news to share!"
The eldest elder suddenly pointed at Queen Medusa and announced excitedly, "Her Majesty is carrying your child!"
"What?!"
Queen Medusa's expression changed drastically as she stared in disbelief. "Elder, don't joke around! How could I not know if I were pregnant?"
"Your Majesty, our Snake Tribe's pregnancy duration is far longer than that of humans. Three to five years is perfectly normal. That's why it's difficult to detect in the first few months."
The elder continued matter-of-factly, "We only discovered it recently while performing the sacred ceremony for you. Using a secret technique, we sensed a faint life force within your body."
"..."
Hearing this, Queen Medusa was completely stunned, her red lips slightly parted, her face filled with bewilderment.
"Haha! This is amazing!"
Xiao Feng joyfully hugged Queen Medusa's slender waist, gently placing his hand on her stomach. "Congratulations, Your Majesty! You're going to be a mother, and I'm going to be a father!"
Seeing his delighted expression, Queen Medusa rolled her eyes at him, yet much of her anxiety dissipated.
The Best for the Child
"Leader, since Her Majesty is pregnant, it means our Snake Tribe will soon have another heir with Medusa's bloodline! This is a monumental blessing for us!"
The great elder was visibly excited. "However, before the queen gives birth, we must take a crucial step.
The Medusa bloodline is incredibly powerful. To ensure the child's full potential, the fetus must be nourished with rare elixirs and divine medicines while still in the womb. This will greatly enhance the child's strength and talent at birth.
Our tribe has three secret nurturing methods for Medusa heirs—classified as lower, middle, and top tiers…"
"The lower and middle tiers don't matter. Tell me about the top-tier method!"
Xiao Feng gently caressed Queen Medusa's stomach and declared in an imposing tone, "My child deserves only the best!"
Queen Medusa's lips curled slightly. At this moment, Xiao Feng exuded an irresistible charm.
Indeed, all women love three types of flowers: money to spend, freedom to spend, and extravagance to spend. Even Queen Medusa was no exception.
The Supreme Method
"Leader, the top-tier method requires refining an elixir called the Heaven Soul Blood Bone Pill. This is a Grade Seven pill that can maximize the potential of a Medusa heir."
The great elder sighed regretfully, "However, the Heaven Soul Blood Bone Pill is incredibly rare. In all these years, our tribe has never had the opportunity to use the top-tier method."
"No problem! It's just a Grade Seven pill!"
Xiao Feng waved it off casually. "Elder, give me the pill recipe. I'll have my people gather the ingredients immediately and request Medicine Venerable to refine it."
"Leader, we are deeply grateful!"
The great elder quickly handed the pill recipe to Xiao Feng with utmost respect.
Setting Out for Central State
"Your Majesty, take care of yourself. I'll be off for now."
Xiao Feng gave Queen Medusa a firm pat on her curvy hip before using his Imperial Arm – Dimensional Matrix to teleport back to the Supreme Alliance's headquarters.
With a single command from Xiao Feng, the massive Supreme Alliance sprang into action, gathering all necessary ingredients for the Heavenly Soul Blood Bone Pill in just three days.
However, when Xiao Feng arrived at Jia Nan Academy to request Medicine Elder's help in refining the pill, he was informed by the academy's grand elder, Su Qian, that Medicine Elder had left for a journey to Central State with Xiao Yan.
"Central State, huh?"
Xiao Feng stroked his chin, contemplating for a moment before heading toward Han Yue's secluded courtyard.
Han Yue's Assistance
"Xiao Feng? What brings you here?"
Han Yue, who had been tending to her garden, was surprised to see Xiao Feng suddenly descend from the sky.
Since Xiao Xun'er had left Jia Nan Academy, Han Yue hadn't seen Xiao Feng for several months.
"I came specifically to find you."
"To find me?"
Han Yue was momentarily taken aback, then secretly pleased.
In the past, whenever Xiao Feng came to the female dormitory, it was always to see Xiao Xun'er, only greeting her in passing. But today, he had come directly to her.
However, Xiao Feng didn't bother addressing her thoughts and got straight to the point. "Han Yue, if I recall correctly, you're from Central State, right?"
"Yes."
Han Yue instinctively nodded. "I'm from the Han Clan in Tianbei City, North Region of Central State."
"Then you should have a map of Central State's North Region. I'm planning a trip there and need a copy."
"Oh, that's all?"
Han Yue was slightly disappointed upon realizing the reason for Xiao Feng's visit. She then retrieved a spare map from her storage ring. "No need to make a copy. I have several extras. You can have this one."
