Chapter 154: I'm Sorry
Eastern Volcanic Highlands.
Volcanoes, deserts, wastelands… Sang Luo followed the direction in which the lightning tribulation disappeared, searching several places. The harshness of each area was beyond imagination. The entire land seemed to have been roasted by flames, and the air was filled with a thick, fiery aura, making it almost impossible to breathe.
Even if Si Ye was angry and didn't want to see her, there was no need to choose a place like this.
“Roar!”
A heart-wrenching tiger roar came from not far away, almost shaking the heavens.
Sang Luo quickly teleported over and saw a slender figure in a pool of blood.
The once radiant and proud Si Ye was now kneeling on the ground in a sorry state. A long sword was inserted into the ground. The gorgeous clothes on his body were tattered, he was covered in wounds, and the ground beneath his knees was dyed red. His fiery red short hair slowly grew into long, flaxen hair, mixed with a few strands of red hair, messily draped over his body, with faint black energy lingering around him. His condition was extremely bad.
Hearing footsteps, Si Ye thought it was someone sent by Fei Yuan again. He didn't even blink, and coldly rebuked,
“Get out! I'm not leaving! A mere heavenly tribulation, this Marquis is not afraid at all!”
“A’Ye, it’s me.”
Si Ye's heart stopped abruptly, and he raised his head.
His eyes were bloodshot, filled with an unfamiliar, violent aura. When he saw Sang Luo in front of him, he was stunned, and the black energy around him stirred again,
“Luo Luo… Why are you here…”
Thinking of something, he lowered his head sadly and turned to get up and leave.
But he clearly underestimated his injuries. He had only taken two steps when he fell heavily to the ground with a “thump!”
Si Ye had never been in such a mess before. A look of shame appeared on his handsome face, and he gritted his teeth and struggled to get up, his face slightly gloomy. “Go away! This is not a place for females to stay.”
“I came to find you. If you leave, I'll leave.”
“……”
“A’Ye, you’re really silly. You’ve already lifted the soul mark. I thought you would have let go. How could you still have inner demons?”
Sang Luo sighed softly, wanting to go over and hug him, but her belly was really inconvenient, so she had to put her arms around his waist and said softly, “Fei Yuan said you refused to go back, so I came to take you back. Your injuries are too serious and need treatment.”
“……I’m not that weak.”
“What about the inner demons? Can you get rid of them too?”
Si Ye was silent for a moment, then slowly let go of her hand. “During the first month I met you, I really thought that meeting you was the greatest luck of my life.”
“I didn’t expect it to be the beginning of bad luck.” Sang Luo smiled wryly. “A’Ye, I’ve always owed you an apology.”
She said softly, “I had thought about confessing this to you, but every time I was with you, enjoying your sincere and passionate affection, I didn’t know how to confess this to a male beast for the first time. It was my fault from beginning to end. I was too impatient at that time and didn’t consider your feelings. I was really a bastard.”
The runaway black energy on Si Ye's body gradually calmed down. His Adam's apple bobbed, as if he had thousands of words to say, but in the end, he looked at her belly and asked, "Whose child is this? Is it that snake beast's, or…"
Sang Luo took his hand and placed it on her round belly. “The child is about to be born. You can sense it, can't you?”
His fingers trembled slightly, and he murmured distractedly, “Impossible, the pregnancy period of the Bi'an clan isn’t this short. Besides, we only mated once, and you and that snake beast have long been partners…”
“Don’t doubt it, it’s your child. If you don’t want to admit it, then I’ll let someone else raise it.” Sang Luo turned around despondently.
Si Ye suddenly hugged her. “No!”
Sang Luo looked down at the empty lava ground, unable to see the expression on the man's face behind her, but she could clearly feel his body trembling uncontrollably.
Countless feelings of guilt intertwined, and his voice was hoarse, as if he was crying,
“I’m sorry, Luo Luo, I haven’t been able to be by your and the child’s side during your pregnancy…”
He suddenly spat out a large mouthful of black blood, and his body fell downwards.
“A’Ye!” Seeing that the aura around him was chaotic again, Sang Luo felt heartbroken and covered her face with tears. “I did approach you with a purpose, but I also really fell in love with you and thought about raising offspring with you…”
She knelt down on the ground, put his head on her lap, and said softly, “The question you asked that day has another answer.”
“If I met you in another time and space, I would definitely agree to you…”
Si Ye passed out, and it was unknown whether he heard it or not.
Sang Luo wanted to teleport him back to the palace, but she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. She was too emotionally agitated just now, and she was probably going to give birth two days early…
Fei Yuan appeared in front of the two of them in time. He looked at Sang Luo helplessly. “You really don’t listen to me. I was planning to come and knock this kid out and take him back myself, but you were one step faster than me.”
Sang Luo was pleasantly surprised. “Your Majesty, the demonic energy on A’Ye’s body seems to be disappearing…”
Fei Yuan looked at the unconscious Si Ye. The demonic energy had almost dissipated, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. “As expected, the one who tied the bell must untie it.”
A formation appeared beneath the three of them, teleporting them back to the Central Phoenix Palace.
The demonic energy on Si Ye’s body had been removed, and the rest were skin injuries. Male beasts had thick skin and flesh, so after taking some wound medicine, he would be almost healed in two days. Fei Yuan sent someone to take Si Ye to a side hall to rest, and then he ignored him.
He strode over and carried Sang Luo to the well-prepared delivery room, gently placing her on the bed.
Sang Luo's face was covered with sweat, and her complexion was extremely pale. She felt waves of abdominal pain.
She was already familiar with the process, but every time at the last step, she still gritted her teeth and was extremely nervous.
Sang Luo's consciousness was already dizzy with pain. She didn't know what Fei Yuan fed her. It was round, and seemed to be a pill… Without saying a word, she swallowed it whole, without even tasting the taste.
Afterwards, the pain in her abdomen gradually disappeared…
Sang Luo opened her eyes and turned to look at Fei Yuan, who was wearing gloves by the bed. She said softly, “What did you give me just now?”
“A pain-relieving pill. This is a top-quality pill personally refined by this Emperor. It’s priceless, and I’m only willing to give it to you.”
“You can refine pills too?” Sang Luo wasn't in so much pain anymore, so she had the strength to speak.
“Did I ever say I couldn’t?” Fei Yuan smiled. For the sake of the old ailment of the Gu poison on his body, he didn’t know how many detours he had taken. After spending hundreds of years, he could be considered to have become talented on the road of alchemy.
Seeing that Sang Luo didn't speak, not knowing what she was thinking, he sat on the bed, touched her cramping belly, and said softly, “Guess what race this baby will be? Could it be a little phoenix? If Xiao Ye doesn't want it, let me raise it. I will definitely raise it as my own child.”
Sang Luo's attention was drawn away by his shameless words, and her nervousness also dissipated a little. “Don’t even think about it! No matter what race the child is, I will send it back to the Bi'an clan first.”
“Then give me one of your own?”
“……That depends on whether His Majesty can give birth!” Sang Luo said angrily.
Fei Yuan sighed. It was really not easy for him to want a child.
“Xiao Luo’er, concentrate, it’s about to be born.” Fei Yuan suddenly said.
Sang Luo gritted her teeth, her belly dropped, and then suddenly felt empty…
