Sang Luo nodded wearily, then, remembering something, she added, "Fei Yuan once left a tracking mark on me. Can you remove it?"
"A tracking mark…" Si Ye’s face darkened even more. "He didn’t even give you a soul mark!"
There was no use saying anything more. Si Ye suppressed the anger in his heart and nodded. "Tracking marks are easy to remove. I’ll help you."
After asking for its location, a faint halo of light appeared in his palm. Then… Sang Luo didn't feel anything at all, and Si Ye withdrew his hand. "Alright, it’s been removed. He can’t sense where you are now."
"Mm."
After Sang Luo ate something, she quickly fell asleep.
Si Ye sat by the bed, gently stroking her hair, his expression dark and inscrutable.
Luo Luo was still somewhat saddened. If she truly didn't like him at all, how could she have conceived this child?
That guy actually dared to make her angry!
Si Ye stormed into the Phoenix Palace.
It was just dawn, around Yin Shi (3-5 AM). Fei Yuan returned to the palace to see Sang Luo, only to find that he couldn't find her anywhere.
He tried to sense the tracking mark he had left, but the mark was completely ineffective.
He anxiously asked the serving attendants,
"Where did she go?"
"You still have the face to ask where she went! She was angered by you and went back to my place!"
Fei Yuan looked at Si Ye, who was storming over in anger, his long eyes narrowing slightly. "Angered? What anger is she harboring with me? If she encountered any unhappiness in the palace, she could have told me. Leaving in a huff without a word is not like her."
Fei Yuan wanted to go to the Marquis's residence to bring her back.
But Si Ye stood in front of him, preventing him from passing.
Fei Yuan's voice deepened slightly. "I'm going to bring Luo'er back. She's carrying my child and must be taken care of by me personally."
Si Ye sneered, "Luo Luo doesn't need you to worry about her. You should spend your time with your old flame and new love, that Mei Ji or whatever, enjoying each other day and night, and quickly have a son."
"Le Xia, she…" Fei Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "She knows?"
"If you don't want people to know, don't do it. Since you've done this, are you afraid of letting Luo Luo know?!"
Si Ye glared at him fiercely, suppressing the desire to attack. "I'll ask you one last time on Luo Luo's behalf. If you're willing to drive the irrelevant females out of the palace and sever these messy relationships, I can still persuade Luo Luo to come back. Otherwise, don't ever think about seeing her again!"
"…I can agree to anything else she wants, but Le Xia must stay in the palace."
Si Ye's expression changed slightly. "You! You wouldn't have actually slept with that female, would you?"
"Oh, did she ask you to ask that?"
"You dare betray Luo Luo!"
"This Emperor has not concluded a soul contract with her. No matter what I do, it doesn't count as betrayal." Fei Yuan had no intention of saying more. "Let her take care of the child. If she needs anything, she can come to the palace to find me."
"You also know she's carrying your child!" Si Ye attacked first.
"Enough! The palace is not a place for you to run wild."
Early in the morning, the palace was in chaos, filled with roaring sounds.
…
Sang Luo, who was at the Marquis's residence, slept until the sun was high in the sky. After waking up, she cast a cleansing spell on herself, took out a few spiritual fruits from her space, and after eating her fill, she wanted to get out of bed to find Si Ye, but found that he wasn't there.
She heard from the servants that he had gone to the Phoenix Palace in the morning and had a fight with Fei Yuan.
"…" Too rash.
Si Ye tiptoed back around noon, not expecting Sang Luo to be waiting at the door, and was discovered.
"Luo Luo, I…" He covered half of his face and turned his head away.
Sang Luo walked forward and pulled his hand down, glimpsing the few bloody marks on his face and the bruising at the corner of his mouth. She was amused and annoyed at the same time. "What did you go to fight him for when you have nothing better to do?"
Fei Yuan’s attack was still light. If they really fought, Si Ye wouldn't be his opponent.
"I wanted to vent your anger."
"You're almost a punching bag yourself, and you still want to vent my anger." Sang Luo's fingertip overflowed with a faint green energy, and the few flesh wounds on Si Ye's face instantly recovered. "You should be glad Fei Yuan showed mercy because you're his nephew and only slightly punished your unreasonable offense. If you really fought, you would have lost half your life."
"You're still speaking up for him." Si Ye mumbled softly, "I didn't lose either. I burned down several of his palaces, and he was the one who said to stop first. We were at most a draw!"
"…" Fei Yuan still showed too much mercy.
Sang Luo shook her head and smiled. "Ah Ye, you're thinking too much. I don't have that much feeling for him. That little bit of anger will dissipate after a night's sleep. It's not worth you making a special trip to the palace to fight him."
At most, her feelings for Fei Yuan were born from desire. That shallow sentiment would quickly dissipate after the two separated. Furthermore, there was gratitude for him risking his life to save Ah Ze, which did move her, but other than that… there was nothing else.
Si Ye looked at her belly. "Give me this child, and I'll raise it!"
"Okay, I'll let you raise it. From now on, you're its real dad."
Si Ye got a child for free and beamed with joy.
In the days that followed, Sang Luo stayed in the Marquis's residence to focus on her pregnancy, and Si Ye took care of her very well.
"Luo Luo, time to eat something ~"
In the evening, Si Ye walked to the bedside and handed her a warm baked sweet potato wrapped in a cloth.
Sang Luo hadn't eaten baked sweet potatoes in a long time. She had casually mentioned it the night before, and Si Ye had privately found a few baskets of sweet potatoes to practice baking, finally mastering the heat and time of baking.
Sang Luo reached out and peeled off the outer layer of charred skin. This kind of charred sweet potato was the most delicious!
Inside was an orange-yellow, sugary sweet potato that would ooze oil with a gentle pinch, fragrant, sweet, and glutinous.
She took a bite, and the tip of her tongue sizzled with heat.
Si Ye hurriedly took the sweet potato, blew on it, and then gave it to her to eat.
By the time Sang Luo finished eating one baked sweet potato, he had peeled several more for her.
After Sang Luo finished eating them all, her stomach was actually a little full.
"I want to eat grilled skewers tonight!" Sang Luo licked her lips.
"Okay, I'll prepare some iron racks and charcoal, and we'll have a barbecue in the yard tonight."
"Mm!"
More than a month passed in a flash, and Sang Luo lived very comfortably and contentedly in the Marquis's residence. Si Ye never told her about the matters in the palace.
But if she wanted to know, she naturally had ways of knowing. Even if she didn't want to know, the servants' idle chatter would still reach her ears.
Fei Yuan didn't give Le Xia any title, but she had been staying in the palace during this time, accompanying the emperor, which, in the eyes of outsiders, already explained everything.
Another two months passed.
More than three months had passed since Sang Luo left the Phoenix Palace.
A bag of immortal-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures was almost finished!
This amount would have lasted at least a year for the previous pregnancies.
Si Ye was also anxious to find food for her, and he was busy day and night, and he had lost a lot of weight.
Fei Yuan, this biological father, hadn't even sent half a blade of grass in so long.
The more Sang Luo thought about it, the angrier she became.
She didn't care if he found females, but there was no reason for Si Ye to raise this child for nothing.
She couldn't let him get this advantage for free.
Either give money or give effort! He at least had to provide the food for raising the child!
And she had to get back the Reincarnation Pill he owed her.
While Si Ye went out to find food, Sang Luo personally went to the Phoenix Palace.
A renewal signed the day before yesterday has finally been made up!
