Chapter 1697: Extra Story: Unification of the Planes (4) Chapter 1697: Extra Story: Unification of the Planes (4) The ministers who had once deeply admired the Palace Guard Emissary, no longer envied his youth and bravery, as sympathy took precedence. They gathered around to comfort him.

“Alas, young man, it is good to face setbacks, for you must learn to be prudent. The emperor’s words should not be questioned lightly.”

“But His Majesty shouldn’t punish me like this, how could he let me wear a green hat in front of the entire Yanmo Heavenly Clan?” The Palace Guard Emissary began to sob.

Black Dragon Emperor looked at him with disdain, snorted irritably and said, “When did His Majesty ever make you wear a green hat? Didn’t you say that the empress’ baby has nothing to do with His Majesty? His intention was for you to personally verify, without your contribution, how your wife could bear a child?”

It is forgivable for Heaven to cause suffering, but self-inflicted troubles leave one unable to live!

No wonder the Black Dragon Emperor could rise to the position of left envoy, he really had a precise grasp on the emperor’s thoughts.

The black moon white tiger sneered, saluted the ministers, and then left the palace. Ten thousand years had passed, and His Majesty was still unwilling to let his ministers have good days!

The matters of the court were naturally relayed to Beiting Huang by Qingjiu and Yaoyao. Beiting Huang of course knew that Yan Ye still had the mood and time to tease his own ministers. She decided to wait until Yan Ye’s return to discuss matters of the plane with him. For now, the priority was the wedding of Qingjiu and Jiu Yan.

“I heard Jiu Yan is arranging the wedding, why hasn’t this been mentioned to me? Don’t you wish for me to prepare a dowry for you?” Beiting Huang saw Qingjiu’s ears turning red and couldn’t help but want to tease her.

Yaoyao felt envious. She sat down next to Beiting Huang and gently touched Beiting Huang’s as-yet flat belly, “Master, if I were to sleep with Fengcang, do you think I could give birth to a Dragon Phoenix?”

Giving birth to a Dragon Phoenix is arguably the ultimate aim of all dragons and phoenixes ‘rolling in the sheets’.

“How would you know if you don’t try?” Beiting Huang touched her own belly; just two months along, if not for the pulse, she would not have felt there was a little one inside, “Give it a try, maybe there really will be a Dragon Phoenix?”

Yaoyao seemed to remember the days in the Cursed Land; even though Xi Feng had died by Beiting Huang’s hand, she still couldn’t shake off those nightmarish days, the lingering shadow that had weighed heavily on her head to that point.

Only by looking around at the luxurious decor of the Blood Moon Palace did she feel as if she were reborn and truly alive again.

The past is past after all, and a new life needs passion to be lived more joyously.

“Master, if Fengcang and I can produce a Dragon Phoenix, let them enter into a Contract with the little crown prince once he is born!” Yaoyao stared at Beiting Huang’s belly, full of longing.

“Sure, as long as he doesn’t object, I have no objections,” Beiting Huang said with a smile, “and Fengcang has to be willing, too.”

“Master, the little crown prince’s contracted beast should be determined by fair competition, even if Yaoyao and Fengcang produce a Dragon Phoenix. What about us? What if Jiu Yan and I have a Nine Heavens Flying Fox? That’s an existence not inferior to the Dragon Phoenix!” Qingjiu protested, hugging Beiting Huang’s arm and shaking it.

“Fine, but for now, the most important thing is for you to go and have children; when they are born, then you can compete!” Beiting Huang began to feel a headache coming on.

Yan Ye finally returned, and as soon as he did, Qingjiu and Yaoyao slipped out through a door at the back of the hall.

In the evening, Yan Ye embraced Beiting Huang, caressing her up and down, which ended up being quite uncomfortable for himself. Beiting Huang was pregnant, and he was wary of touching her too casually. Beiting Huang offered her Life Light in exchange, to be refined by Yan Ye. After he agreed, Beiting Huang used her skillful hands to comfortably service Yan Ye.
