Chapter 320 - Meeting After

~ High Heaven Palace Meeting ~

"To think that Temporal Thunder was this strong. I knew he was clearly not normal, but this is just... Quite a large difference." Flower Shadow Great Emperor spoke, breaking the reflective silence. 

"There was one day that he was targeted by a Territory Lord. If he hadn't already been weakened, or if Leiji hadn't acted quickly, or my crew immediately performed aid... I would have lost my son in a battle that I led him into. Such a thought... With how much I snapped seeing my son injured like that, if he really did die..." Yang Kai replied, with remorseful anger. Angry at the event, but remorseful that he let it happen. 

"Father, it's alright. I survived. And now there isn't any need to worry about it. Unless a horde of those guys come at once, or a royal lord appears before me. There is no longer any need to feel bad about that situation." I said in a thankful tone, and indicated that I held no ill will about the matter towards him. "Besides, if you want to blame anyone, blame those disgusting grotesque beings. They are the invaders here, an unnatural invader. On top of this, it's smart of them to target me, my power is one that can banish them for good. Making it easy even for a 3rd Order Emperor to send the Ink Clan to Hell." I added, to smooth everything over, hopefully once and for all. 

"Void, Temporal Thunder is right. He is already so freakishly strong that I can't beat him." Iron Blood laughed. "But that isn't the reason I gave my approval, no. That was for a different reason. One only a man can understand, Temporal Thunder passed, and that is why I approve of him taking Lin Yun'er as his woman, even though that means he now has 9 women." He explained, with a sigh of acceptance. 

"In any case, there are 6 weddings to plan... This is going to rock the whole Star Boundary..." Martial Beast Great Emperor said, wanting to get the topic finished, so he just finished the long and complicated discussions down a bit. "Now then, we all came back here to the meeting at your request. So what is it you wish to go over now, Temporal Thunder?" He added, leaning back, as if expecting it to be a long one. 

"Since Martial Uncle wants to go this route then, I'll begin. First I desire every city across the Star Boundary to build a partition that mimics Night-Love city's couples plaza. This entails that every city has enough alchemists to create the pills needed." I said. "Second, I must train them all myself. As the recipe is different for men and women. It is so different in fact, that aside from myself, men can only refine the pill for men, and likewise the same for women being the requirement for the pills for women. Oh, and I'd appreciate it if you don't ask why I am able to make both, it would take far too long to explain, and the only two here that it would even be worth explaining it to, I have already done so." I added. 

"I see, so it has that kind of restriction. I am curious why, is it possible to get a simple answer?" Flower Shadow Great Emperor asked. 

"Of course, to make the pill it requires a fundamental understanding of the basic composition, functions, necessities and the overall condition of the individual." I explained. "However, the last part is sorta not needed to be worried about as we can determine if a couple is actually in the right condition the moment they come to get the pill. Moreover the women's pill is fundamentally different in its effects, since it must last before, during and even 6 months after the pregnancy." I elaborated further. 

"That sounds like quite a lot of hurdles. Is it really that effective? And is it even worth it in the long run?" Jiu Feng asked, raising her brow, from behind Martial Beast Great Emperor. 

"Well, the long answer... We don't have the luxury of time for, but the short answer is most certainly. Even if it doesn't actually further increase the population like what I am aiming to do. The best effect of this pill is definitely for women. I'd even recommend taking it regardless. As it can limit the pain of bearing children down to nothing more than a simple pinch of the cheek as an example. And for those here who understand the significance of what I just stated, the next reason is even more important. It prevents the death of the mother with 100% certainty. Thus keeping the family together no matter what." I elaborated as quickly as I could, while also getting them to understand.

"Are you serious! I know you spoke of the pills highly earlier, but surely such a thing is not possible. There is always the will of heaven that intervenes and can cause the mother and child to die alongside each other. It was long held to be a punishment from the heavens." Flower Shadow Great Emperor frantically yelled, standing up in shock. Yet her eyes were filled with hopeful determination. 

"First, the heavens have nothing to do with childbirth, that is something that rests solely on the mother's and child's physical condition. Which is determined by the health of the mother's womb and by extension the mother. So, once one solves that problem, the days of stillbirth, and pregnancy related deaths are a thing of the past. As you can imagine from hearing this, I'd like to spread this as fast as possible. And I'd even be willing to use force if needed. The human Race and Ancient Divine Spirits both have a far greater enemy than internal fights between ourselves." I explained, wiping away the preconceived notions they once had. 

"He is right. My small universe is nearly ten times faster than the outside world now. And there hasn't been a single birth that went unsuccessful. And no mother's past away. And on top of that, women have basically dragged their husbands to claim the pills every year. Right now, the population I have is quite substantial." Yang Kai added, lending further credence to my words, and a deeper interest in the pills.
