SWNOVELXO Chapter 324: Surrogacy? Why Not!
```
Capital!
Royal Family, Ji Yuchen's residence!
Right after hanging up the phone, Ji Yuchen's expression instantly became gloomy.
"Hmph! That old geezer Chen Yao, why has he also gone to Flower Capital?" No sooner had Ji Yuchen's words fallen than his assistant quickly passed over a stack of documents, "Emperor, we've just received news, Flower Capital has seen an outbreak of Netherworld Blood Worms, the Town Martial Hall must be going to deal with the trouble caused by the Blood Worms!"
"However, according to our intelligence! The Red Armor that Prince Jin deployed has all been annihilated by Lord of Shadows, and Chen Yao has publicly announced that Ye Fan is the only heir of the Town Martial Hall!"
Hearing his assistant's response, Ji Yuchen's face showed a complex expression. There was joy, helplessness, and also a bit of anticipation.
"As expected! Ye Fan still has other cards up his sleeve!" Ji Yuchen rubbed his forehead with some headache.
Prince Jin transferred the Red Armor overnight, ordering Deputy Commander Lu Yuan to leave the Capital; such significant news, no matter how weak Ji Yuchen was, after all, he was still the Emperor and naturally knew about it.
Ji Yuchen, of course, knew that Prince Jin's deployment of the Red Armor was to deal with Ye Fan, but Ji Yuchen did not inform Ye Fan.
Because Ji Yuchen wanted to see just what other cards Ye Fan had!
Could Ye Fan emerge unscathed when facing the siege of so many Red Armors?
If Ye Fan could retreat, then it would strengthen Ji Yuchen's resolution to announce the Grand Tutor Mansion plan tomorrow.
And if Ye Fan truly died at the hands of Prince Jin, then proceeding with the Grand Tutor Mansion plan would become meaningless.
But predictably, if Ye Fan, the last hope of the Ye Family, were to die, then the forces behind the Ye Family would certainly seek insane revenge against Prince Jin.
Therefore, no matter what the outcome was, Ji Yuchen, as a neutral party, would be the one to reap the benefits.
"Ye Fan, don't blame me for this!"
Ji Yuchen heaved a sigh, thinking back to the strange noise he had just heard.
That old demon Chen Yao even spoke up to explain, claiming it was a noise from a massage.
But Emperor Ji Yuchen had his doubts!
What kind of healing method would produce such strange noises?
"Ye Fan... indeed, you can do it, hmm! My Empress, you even set your sights on her..." Fury flashed in Ji Yuchen's eyes at first!
Although she was originally born female, no matter what, the acts of Ye Fan and Ji Ningxuan were like putting a green hat on Ji Yuchen.
It was a tremendous provocation to the royal family, to the dignity of the Emperor.
However, thinking of his mother's words, Ji Yuchen's eyes suddenly brightened.
Next month, he was to hold a wedding ceremony with Ji Ningxuan.
After the wedding, under normal circumstances, Ji Ningxuan should quickly become pregnant and have a child.
But as both he and Ji Ningxuan were women, how could they possibly have a child?
But now Ye Fan had already made contact with Ji Ningxuan!
If it was to be a surrogate?
It wasn't an option worth considering!
Just as mother had said, since it had already been decided to support the rise of the Ye Family, establishing the Grand Tutor Mansion, and forming a tripartite situation with Prince Jin.
Then they might as well rely on Ye Fan a bit more!
Hmph!
But merely this would be too cheap for Ye Fan.
Even if it becomes necessary to do so, it must not be made too easy for Ye Fan!
Originally, it was just meant to send Ji Ningxuan to the Flower Capital to win over Ye Fan, a gesture of goodwill from the royal family!
```
But now, the price he had paid was indeed hefty.
...
In the Flower Capital, within a residential house in the Eastern Suburbs!
As Ye Fan kept patting Ji Ningxuan, the powerful warm flow transformed into Martial Arts Qi Force, crazily enhancing Ji Ningxuan's Martial Breath.
Experience tales at empire
However, as Ye Fan continued to pat more and more, he clearly felt that the Martial Breath produced was getting weaker and weaker.
But Ji Ningxuan was still just a thread away from achieving her breakthrough!
It was obvious that continuing to pat her bottom had ceased to produce the desired effect.
Ye Fan frowned, "Miss Xuan, please forgive me!"
As he spoke, Ye Fan suddenly reached out, wrapped his arms around Ji Ningxuan's slender waist, and kissed her red lips.
"Mmmph! Mmm..."
Ji Ningxuan, who was experiencing the rampage of Martial Arts Qi within her body, hadn't anticipated Ye Fan making a more intimate move, kissing her directly?
Good heavens!
That was her first kiss!
Even though she and Ji Yuchen were childhood sweethearts, there had never been any excessive actions between them.
And now this Ye Fan, without any hesitation, had taken her first kiss!
How infuriating!
Ji Ningxuan had intended to push Ye Fan away, but in the next moment, she felt an even more robust and dense warm flow surging from their contact on the lips. The fluctuating Qi Force inside her body seemed to finally break through the barrier, reaching the standard for a breakthrough to the Martial Arts level.
Crack!
As if sensing a shackle breaking inside her dantian, Ji Ningxuan finally understood that Ye Fan was actively helping her in her breakthrough!
Just that, this method of breakthrough was indeed very bizarre.
Alas!
Ye Fan merely tasted and then stopped, kissing her once and quickly withdrew after achieving his goal.
Ji Ningxuan, at the crucial moment of her breakthrough, had no time to think of anything else.
She swiftly sat cross-legged on the bed, madly circulating the Martial Arts Qi within her body, breaking through the barrier and instantly reaching the Martial Emperor Level before stabilizing her cultivation.
By the time Ji Ningxuan had cycled her Martial Breath through seven heavenly cycles, completely stabilizing the Martial Arts Qi at the Martial Emperor Level, several dozen minutes had passed.
"Thank you!" Ji Ningxuan, with a bashful face, got off the bed and rapidly pulled over her clothes, speaking coyly to Ye Fan, "You... turn around, I'm getting dressed..."
Ye Fan rolled his eyes, "Superfluous! Didn't you already see everything just now? What's there to be afraid of!"
"You... how annoying..." Ji Ningxuan originally wanted to scold him, but her words changed on her lips to "annoying," and though she sounded like she was chiding him, it was more like she was being coquettish.
After Ji Ningxuan got dressed, she glanced outside the window and said somewhat shyly, "Let's get out of here quickly! It's all because of you... they must all think something happened in here!"
Ye Fan raised an eyebrow, "Ji Ningxuan, don't go back on your word after pulling up your pants! You were the one who willingly agreed just now, can you blame me? Besides, such a handsome and beautiful guy like me willingly sacrificed my charm to enhance your strength, I don't complain, so what do you have to complain about?"
"You... Ah... I can't argue with you... Alas..." Ji Ningxuan stood next to Ye Fan, almost instinctively reaching out to hook her arm onto his.
After the recent close contact, Ji Ningxuan found herself harboring a strange attachment to Ye Fan, feeling as if she had found a sense of belonging in her heart.
It was as if she belonged to Ye Fan!
But the harsh reality was that she was already designated to be the future empress; no matter what had happened with Ye Fan now, they could never end up together in the end…
Thinking of this, Ji Ningxuan suddenly felt a ripping pain in her heart, as though something was being forcefully torn from her body...
"Ye Fan! Thank you... for giving me a wonderful night! I... will remember you..."
