Chapter 354: Yun Yun is pregnant
"Meet the leader."
"Meet Alliance Leader Xiao."
As Xiao Se, Medusa, Yun Yun, and Ya Fei entered the VIP seats in the square, many important figures of the Jia Ma Empire including Hai Bodong, Fama, Jia Xingtian, Nalan Jie, Muchen, and others came to greet them, and bowed respectfully.
"You're welcome, everyone." Facing the greetings from everyone, Xiao Se gladly accepted them. The present was different from the past. With his current strength and status, he could afford the greetings from everyone. Moreover, to become the leader of a large force, if he was friendly to everyone, he would have no deterrent power. Sooner or later, this force would be in trouble.
"Let me introduce you all. This is Queen Medusa of the Snake People, my wife. You all know Yun'er and Fei'er, so I won't introduce her in detail." Xiao Se pointed at Medusa. Although many people present knew the latter, she still had to be introduced as long as there were people who didn't know her.
"Your Majesty." Upon hearing this, everyone present saluted again.
Medusa was very satisfied with Xiao Se's introduction. Her beautiful eyes moved around and finally stopped at Hai Bodong, Fama, and Jia Xingtian. She covered her red lips and chuckled, "Hai Bodong, old man Fama, Jia Xingtian, I haven't seen you for nearly 20 years. I never thought that we would meet on this kind of occasion."
Hearing what Medusa said, Fama was fine, after all, he had no conflicts with Medusa before, but Hai Bodong and Jia Xingtian looked a little embarrassed. The former had been sealed by Medusa for more than ten years, and the latter had fought with Medusa many times. Now Medusa has broken through to Dou Zong, and judging from the other party's aura, it is not inferior to the Wu Guardian who was killed by Xiao Se a few days ago. If nothing unexpected happens, she is also a mid-level Dou Zong.
It would be strange if they didn't feel jealous!
"The Queen is joking. I am sorry for the things that happened in the past." Hai Bodong and Jia Xingtian smiled helplessly.
"Haha, it's nothing. The past is the past." Medusa smiled, looked at Hai Bodong, then turned her beautiful eyes to Jia Xingtian, her red lips slightly raised, outlining a sly arc, and chuckled: "But speaking of which, Jia Xingtian, why are you still lingering at the peak of Dou Huang? Hai Bodong, who is much younger than you and has been sealed by me for more than ten years, has caught up with you. If you take the Po Zong Dan refined by my husband today, you will never catch up."
As Xiao Se's wife, Medusa naturally knew the internal affairs of the Sea Alliance. Looking at the entire Jia Ma Empire, the only four forces that caught her eye were the Yun Lan Sect, the Miter Family, the Jia Ma Empire Royal Family, and the Alchemist Guild. Among them, the Yun Lan Sect and the Miter Family had already joined the Sea Alliance. Xiao Se said that there would be a way to get the Alchemist Guild to join afterward, which also increased the royal family's hesitation. So Medusa, out of a bad taste in her heart, subconsciously wanted to disgust Jia Xingtian, her old rival. At the same time, it was also a warning to the other party, warning him that after today, there would be no such good opportunities in the future.
As expected, after hearing what Queen Medusa said, Jia Xingtian's face turned pale and blue, and the sense of crisis in his heart suddenly increased several times. Queen Medusa was right. If Hai Bodong broke through to the Dou Zong level, then the Mitel family would become the second most powerful force after the Yunlan Sect, and he and the royal family would be left behind forever.
Immediately, Jia Xingtian bowed to Xiao Se and said, "Alliance Leader Xiao, the royal family will give a reply to the matter you mentioned last time before sunset."
"Then I hope Mr. Jia won't let me down." Xiao Se didn't care too much and turned his head to give Ya Fei a wink.
Ya Fei nodded, spread her fighting wings, flew to the jade platform in the center of the square, and took on the hosting job she was best at. After Ya Fei introduced the Sea Alliance, influenced by her highly contagious speech, almost all the families in the square, except for a few families loyal to the Jia Ma royal family, chose to join the Sea Alliance. Even the two fighting kings, Kuang Shi, and Feng Li, who had always been inclined to the Jia Ma royal family, joined.
"Now, please invite our Sea Alliance leader Xiao to come up on stage and refine the elixir." Ya Fei pointed her jade finger at Xiao Se in the VIP seat, her beautiful eyes full of admiration and love. This is her man. A man who made the entire Jia Ma Empire bow down to him at a young age.
Awe-filled eyes looked in the direction of Ya Fei. Under the gaze of everyone, Xiao Se did not move. His figure flashed and disappeared in an instant. Before everyone could react, he appeared again on the jade platform in the middle of the square where Ya Fei was.
"Leave it to me from now on." Xiao Se said softly to Ya Fei.
"Yeah." Ya Fei responded with a reassuring smile, spread her Dou Qi wings, and flew to the separate VIP seats on the top floor where Medusa, Yun Yun, and Ya Fei were.
In the VIP seats on the highest level, Medusa, Yun Yun, and Ya Fei sat in order.
As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, let alone three women and they are all Xiao Se's wives.
As soon as they sat down, Queen Medusa began to declare her sovereignty, "Master Yun, oh no, Sister Yun'er, I never thought we would meet on such an occasion."
"I wonder if Sister Medusa has any advice for me?" Although Yun Yun was indifferent by nature and did not like fighting, she was also a proud person in her heart. When she heard that Medusa regarded her as Xiao Se's first wife, she also showed a spirit of not admitting defeat and fought back.
Ya Fei, who was standing by, keenly sensed the tension between the two and smiled helplessly. She knew that the two sisters were fighting for the position of the first wife. Facing these two sisters who were far superior to her in terms of talent, strength, and status, Ya Fei said, "You guys fight for your own, as long as the little man loves me, that's all."
Queen Medusa continued, "I can't say I'm giving you any advice, but I just want to ask when did sister Yun'er start dating Xiao Se?"
"One year and eight months." Yun Yun reported the time when she and Xiao Se met in the Warcraft Mountains.
Hearing this, Medusa showed no surprise at all. She gently stroked her slightly bulging belly and said with a smug smile, "Really? I've been with Xiao Se since he was thirteen years old. I've always stayed by his side. I was there even when you met him at the Flying Monster and the Alchemist Conference. And I was pregnant with his child two years ago."
As she spoke, Medusa raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Yun Yun, but found that the other party did not show any anger or resentment.
"Isn't it just a child?" Yun Yun raised her red lips slightly and stroked her belly gently like Medusa.
Hearing Yun Yun's words, Ya Fei, who was sitting on the side and acting as a spectator, finally couldn't sit still anymore. She looked at Yun Yun's not-so-obvious belly in disbelief and exclaimed, "Sister Yun Yun, are you also..."
"Yeah." Yun Yun nodded with a slight blush on her pretty face and replied, "More than a month, it should be the last time at the Mitre Auction House." She didn't expect that she would get pregnant after just having a one-night stand with Xiao Se.
"Does Xiao Se know now?" Ya Fei asked with some envy.
Yun Yun shook her head: "During the three-year agreement, I was afraid that he would be distracted. Later, he went to pick up Medusa, which delayed him, so I didn't have time to tell him."
Ya Fei smiled and said, "Then Xiao Se will be very happy later. After Sister Medusa, Sister Yun Yun is pregnant again."
As she spoke, Yafei touched her belly. Why was her belly so weak? She had been unable to get out of bed several times because of that bad guy.
Yun Yun nodded, and turned her gaze to Medusa on the left, with a slight smile on her face. "I heard from Xiao Se that the serpent people have a long pregnancy period, which can take as little as three years or as long as five years. You have been pregnant for two years now, and the baby will take at least another year, or even longer. When your baby is born, I guess you will call me your sister or brother."
"You!" Medusa clenched her five fingers, snorted coldly, turned her head to look at the desolate people in the square, and said no more.
Yun Yun's pregnancy caught Medusa off guard.
Yun Yun won this round.
On the other side, Xiao Se had taken out the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, and with a flick of his finger, a golden strange fire was released and poured into the medicine cauldron. As rare medicinal herbs floated out from the storage ring, Xiao Se began to formally refine the Po Zong Dan.
"That's the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron ranked tenth on the Tianding List (PS: the original book didn't mention its ranking, so I made one up.)" In another VIP seat, Fama saw Xiao Se taking out a huge scarlet medicine cauldron covered with animal patterns all over, and couldn't help but exclaim.
Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron?
Fama's voice was not small, and everyone present had almost reached the level of Dou Ling, so they could hear it. When they heard that the medicine cauldron owned by Xiao Se was the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking, everyone was stunned and the whole audience was in an uproar.
"Grandpa, what is the Tianding Ranking?" Yaoyue, who was standing behind Jia Xingtian, couldn't help but ask when she heard what Fama said. She was also an alchemist, so she was naturally very curious about the medicine cauldron.
"Grandfather, I'm not an alchemist. You have to ask old man Fama about this." Jia Xingtian smiled bitterly. The medicine cauldron must be extraordinary to make old man Fama, who usually looks old and frail, lose his composure. Otherwise, it would not be worthy of Xiao Se, a seventh-grade alchemist.
"President Fama? What is the Tianding List?" Yaoyue asked Fama respectfully.
Fama laughed out loud and explained, "Similar to the Different Fire Ranking, there is also a Heavenly Cauldron Ranking in the alchemy world. As the name suggests, the Cauldron Ranking records those extremely perfect and outstanding medicine cauldrons. There are a total of thirteen cauldrons in the Cauldron Ranking, and each of them has magical powers that attract countless alchemists. This Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron is on this list, ranking tenth."
Hearing this, Yaoyue nodded as if she understood, and looked at Xiao Se again with a little more admiration in her eyes. It was enough for her to hear that this Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron was the tenth-ranked medicine cauldron on the continent, and it belonged to her most admired brother Xiao Huohuo.
The Po Zong Dan, as a sixth-grade top-level elixir, took a lot of time even for Xiao Se, a seventh-grade alchemist, to refine. Three hours had passed quietly, but no one present was bored. Especially the alchemists, who stared at it intently, not even blinking. Being able to witness the birth of the Po Zong Dan with their own eyes was a scene that they would never forget.
"Strange, with Alliance Leader Xiao's alchemy skills, plus the strange fire and the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, the Sect Breaking Pill should have been made long ago. Why is there no movement in the cauldron? And it seems that too many medicinal materials have been consumed, three as many." Looking at Xiao Se, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron on the high platform in the center of the square, refining the pill, Fama stroked his beard lightly, his eyes full of confusion.
"Could it be a failure? After all, the Sect Breaking Pill is a top-grade sixth-grade pill. Even Alliance Leader Shi Xiao is not sure that he can succeed in refining it in one go." Qi Mier, the vice president of the Alchemist Guild, who was standing behind Fama, asked in a low voice.
"It shouldn't be. Alliance Leader Xiao didn't make any mistakes from beginning to end. His alchemy skills are so high that I have never seen them before." Fama shook his head, pondered for a moment, and suddenly raised his eyelids and exclaimed: "Could it be..."
Before Fama could finish his words, there was a loud bang.
Three bright light pillars as thick as buckets burst out from the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and shot straight into the sky, stirring up circles of milky white ripples in the air. The light pillars trembled violently, causing the entire huge square to begin to tremble. Some Dou Lings who were close to them were blown away by the milky white ripples and fell to the ground.
The light pillars were also accompanied by an unprecedentedly strong elixir fragrance, which filled the entire Jiama Holy City in a moment.
For a moment, the sky of the entire square was dyed a light milky white. It contrasted with the golden flames on the square, and it looked magnificent.
The light column lasted for a long time before gradually fading. In the end, it finally completely turned into a piece of tiny light spots and slowly dissipated...
As the light column completely dissipated, three thumb-sized light balls floated out from the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and appeared under the gaze of many people in the square. As soon as the light balls appeared, the radiance suddenly increased, and their bodies moved, and they looked as if they were trying to escape from the sky.
Just as its light was about to escape into the sky, Xiao Se suddenly snorted coldly, and then a suction force suddenly surged out of his hand!
Under the fierce suction force, the three light balls had no power to resist, and they did not hold out for a moment. Finally, under the gaze of the greedy and envious sunlight, they fell into Xiao Se's hands and the refining of the Po Zong Dan was completed!
"Teacher, that is..." On the top of a tall building near the Royal Square, Xiao Yan, who was worried about Xiao Qing and personally escorted the former to the Sea Alliance, was looking at the three pills in Xiao Se's hand in the square in horror and was speechless.
"The Sect Breaking Pill is a sixth-grade top-level elixir. It can help a peak Dou Huang warrior increase the chances of being promoted to Dou Zong. And even if the promotion fails, the realm will not drop. This is a heaven-defying elixir. This kid is a genius. He was able to refine three sixth-grade top-level elixirs at the same time in just three hours. His future is limitless." Yao Lao exclaimed in amazement.
"A sixth-grade top-level elixir… a sect-breaking elixir." Upon hearing this, a huge feeling of powerlessness surged into Xiao Yan's heart. He whispered, "Teacher, do you think I can catch up with him?"
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yao Lao was startled and thought for a long time, but finally did not answer. If Xiao Se had not practiced the Burning Technique, then he would say yes, but now. Even with his guidance, whether it was alchemy or cultivation, Xiao Yan seemed unable to catch up with Xiao Se anymore.
