Chapter 770 Childbirth
Time flies, and another three months have passed.
On this day, Ji Xinyi's belly finally showed signs of pregnancy.
"I think I'm going into labor."
"Ah, so fast. Wait a minute, I've prepared two midwives outside Flying Immortal Island. I'll go and bring them in right away."
"Don't!"
"what happened?"
Seeing Ji Xinyi gripping his hand, Zhao Mu turned around and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Need not."
Ji Xinyi suddenly laughed and said reproachfully, "Are you stupid? Do I, a cultivator at the Fourth Extreme Realm, need a midwife for childbirth?"
slap~
Zhao Mu slapped his forehead; he really had made a stupid mistake.
"Is there anything I can do to help you?"
"No need, you can just wait outside."
bang~
Before Zhao Mu could speak again, the door was closed.
He paced back and forth in the courtyard, his heart pounding with anxiety. He didn't know whether Little Phoenix had given birth to his child or not, so for him, Ji Xinyi was about to give birth to his first child.
Who isn't nervous when they become a father for the first time?
Time passed by, but there was still no movement inside.
"What's going on? There's not a sound at all?"
Zhao Mu had no experience with this matter. In his mind, childbirth should not be very difficult for women, and they should not be screaming.
Just as he was filled with questions, a loud cry suddenly came from inside.
However, before he could even push open the door, he noticed a strange phenomenon in the sky: a holy goddess bathed in lightning.
"This is... a natural phenomenon?"
Zhao Mu's face was full of joy, and he said in a daze, "It seems that this child has extraordinary talent!"
Composing himself, he rushed into the room. Ji Xinyi was covered in sweat and looked exhausted. Beside her lay a baby girl, her body flushed red, crying loudly.
"Umbilical cord!"
"okay!"
Zhao Mu nodded, then carefully cut his daughter's umbilical cord, cleaned her body with warm water, and wrapped her in a small blanket.
There was no panic, because Zhao Mu had practiced these basic things countless times over the past few months, and they had become muscle memory.
Seeing Zhao Mu's skillful movements, Ji Xinyi smiled knowingly.
My parents and sister in heaven would be happy for me if they could see this.
"Give me the baby."
"It's okay, I'll hold you. You should recover first."
"You idiot, she's hungry."
"Ah, oh oh oh~"
Zhao Mu immediately stepped forward, placed his daughter next to Ji Xinyi, and muttered, "From now on, someone will be competing with me for food."
"Pooh!"
Ji Xinyi was so angry she laughed, and scolded, "Don't say these things in front of your daughter!"
"hey-hey!"
Zhao Mu grinned, then strode out of the house; he needed to make something to nourish his wife.
The fish in the stream in front of the door are good, and the wild animals in the mountains and forests are also very nutritious.
Having lived on Feixian Island for two years, Zhao Mu had long since discovered that this place was full of treasures.
In the days that followed, Zhao Mu continued to take care of Ji Xinyi and her daughter.
The daughter's name was Zhao Yinuo, not Zhao Mu's, but Ji Xinyi's.
After two months of recuperation, Ji Xinyi has fully recovered and seems even more beautiful than before.
Zhao Mu was counting down the days; he only had less than six months left until he turned thirty.
That day, he said to Ji Xinyi, "Come back to Shattered Star City with me! The time I agreed with my mother is almost up. The child is still young and needs your care. I know you want to leave, but at least wait until she is weaned."
"Also, an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law eventually, right? If I only take Yinuo back, my mother won't be able to see her daughter-in-law, and she'll probably chase me all over the yard and beat me."
"Don't worry about the Ji family finding out. I will ask Sister Chi to help you erase all traces. I will make sure no one knows that you have given birth to a daughter for me."
"Ok!"
Ji Xinyi nodded and readily agreed.
"What? You agreed so readily?"
This greatly surprised Zhao Mu.
"Is it not good?"
Ji Xinyi asked back.
"Okay, okay, of course it's good."
Zhao Mu laughed and nodded, then immediately began packing his things. He finished packing in less than half an hour and boarded the treasure ship with his wife and daughter.
When he returns to Shattered Star City this time, he must bring the little rich girl with him, so that his mother can deal with Mu Yueyao.
As for whether his silly senior sister would return, he wasn't sure; he would have to ask Chi Yanyun to find out.
What? You're asking why I didn't ask Yan Bingqing?
That idiot, as long as he speaks, even if it delays important matters, he'll still follow along eagerly.
"So much time has passed, I wonder if Sister Chi has calmed down yet."
The embarrassing scene from last time was still vivid in his mind. Although as time went by, he no longer pictured Chi Yanyun's graceful figure whenever he thought of her, he was still somewhat uneasy.
She's the number one female demon in the Asura Demon Sea.
He once single-handedly wiped out a top-tier, first-class power, as well as a bunch of first- and second-tier powers.
"Fine, whether we stick our necks out or not, we'll get stabbed anyway, let's do it!"
After completing his mental preparation, Zhao Mu immediately sped off to the island where Chi Yanyun was living in seclusion.
The two islands were not far apart, and the treasure ship soon docked smoothly.
"Bring your men up here. Mu Yueyao has already left!"
Just as Zhao Mu was debating whether or not to bring Ji Xinyi and her daughter to the island, he heard Chi Yanyun's voice.
My cheap mother-in-law has left, that's great!
To be honest, Zhao Mu was really struggling to keep up with Mu Yueyao.
"Let's go, let's go to the island."
"Ok!"
Unlike last time, this time the first to greet them was not the little slave girl Anlin, but the rich girl and the silly senior sister together.
Wu Yao was obviously unaware of Ji Xinyi's existence, and was immediately stunned when she saw her for the first time.
It wasn't because Zhao Mu had a new woman by his side, but because Ji Xinyi was holding a baby in her arms.
"this....."
"Ji Xinyi, and me and her daughter, Zhao Yinuo."
Zhao Mu generously explained that from the moment Ji Xinyi agreed to go home with him, he knew that she was willing to make their relationship public within a certain range, and the young rich woman was clearly within that range.
"Wait, isn't that Ji Qingyue?"
"Little Yao Yao is so silly, Ji Xin Yi is, and so is Ji Qing Yue!"
Wu Yao was speechless. Her husband really could bring women home no matter where he went, and one of them even ran off with her. They hadn't even slept together, and they already had a child.
But she... is still a virgin.
Ji Xinyi was quickly surrounded by Wu Yao and Yan Bingqing.
She felt very uncomfortable in this atmosphere and looked to Zhao Mu for help.
"Don't worry, the rich girl and the silly senior sister are both very nice people. From now on, we'll be family. You'll have to try to adapt to this atmosphere."
Zhao Mu transmitted his voice to Ji Xinyi.
"Ah."
Ji Xinyi responded that Zhao Mu was right, and that she had to try to change, not only for herself, but also for Zhao Mu and her daughter.
