Chapter 463: Childbirth
Yan scooped Sang Luo into his arms and hurried to the side room.
The room was tidily arranged and quiet, but a bit damp and cold. Fei Yuan quickly lit a brazier by the bed, looking at Sang Luo lying on the bed with concern.
Her brows were tightly furrowed, her face pale, and cold sweat had already soaked her forehead. She clutched her stomach, moaning in pain.
It was still more than half a year away from Fei Yuan's estimated due date. Yan's return this time had stimulated an early labor.
Fortunately, he carried a Painless Pill with him, and he quickly took one out and gave it to Sang Luo.
Soon, Sang Luo's face became calmer, and the writhing pain in her abdomen gradually lessened, though her face remained pale.
Yan tightly grasped one of Sang Luo's hands, lowered his head to kiss her forehead, and extended his other arm to her.
"Bite me."
Sang Luo opened her mouth and bit down hard on his firm, slender arm, tears instantly streaming down.
His arm was bitten until it bled, but Yan's expression didn't change in the slightest as he softly comforted her.
The birthing process was smooth. Sang Luo was very familiar with it. She closed her eyes and pushed with all her might!
Suddenly.
Her belly emptied.
"Ooh ~"
A tender, trembling, weak whimper echoed softly in the room.
Fei Yuan lifted a small meatball covered in some stray hairs from the bedding, a relieved smile on his face. He quickly wiped away the remaining greasy dirt from the little fox's body with a towel, wrapped the little ball in thick, soft swaddling clothes, and looked at the two of them. "It's born, it's a male cub."
Sang Luo quickly used healing magic to treat the injuries to her body, and Yan also fed her a pill of unknown origin, instantly restoring her vitality and energy.
She opened her arms and smiled, "Quick, bring him over, let me see!"
Fei Yuan walked over and handed her the swaddling clothes.
Sang Luo looked at the little pink ball in her arms, covered in a thin layer of fluff, resembling a wolf cub at birth. It was tiny, its body curled up, only the size of a palm. Its eyes were still closed, fragile and incredibly adorable.
It seemed to have smelled its mother's familiar scent, and its round, pink nose gently nudged in Sang Luo's arms, wanting to snuggle into the warm place it instinctively yearned for.
Yan looked at the child with tenderness and excitement. This was his newborn offspring, connected to him by blood, the child that Luo'er had conceived for him after hundreds of years of pregnancy!
Yan spread his arms and embraced Sang Luo and the child, gently kissing her face, and then lowered his head to kiss the little fox's head in the swaddling clothes.
At this moment, he was the happiest male beast in the world!
"Thank you, Luo'er, from now on you and the child are my life!"
His excitement was beyond words, and his eyes were filled with tenderness as he looked at Sang Luo, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
Sang Luo had never seen Yan so out of control. She leaned in and kissed the corner of his lips, saying softly,
"You and the child are also the loves of my heart."
Fei Yuan was extremely jealous. He regretted coming today.
"Wah ~"
The little fox cub let out a cry.
Fei Yuan looked at Yan, "The child is hungry. I didn't bring any milk powder with me this time. You live in such a remote, deep mountain forest. There are no prosperous cities nearby. It might take a while to go back and forth to buy some."
"I, I have some milk." Seeing the two male beasts blush instantly, Sang Luo said shyly, "I'll feed the child first, can't let him go hungry ~ You two go buy some milk powder, and remember to buy all the things like bottles and diapers."
"Okay, I'll go buy it, you take care of Luo'er and the child first," Yan said to Fei Yuan.
This novice beast father was also learning very seriously. After noting down the list, he teleported away.
"You! You also turn around first, I'll feed the child." Sang Luo said to Fei Yuan with some shyness.
"We've been together for so long, what is there that I can't see ~" Fei Yuan said jokingly, but still obediently turned around.
After Sang Luo finished feeding the child, the fox cub stopped crying and remained motionless with its eyes closed, probably having fallen asleep.
Fei Yuan brewed a bowl of nourishing soup and sat by the bed to feed her.
After Sang Luo ate something, she also felt sleepy.
She placed the little fox cub beside her and hugged it. Not long after falling asleep, the cub woke up again and began to cry.
Fei Yuan skillfully picked up the child and went out to the corridor to coax it to sleep.
Yan came back a little late.
He bought a lot of things, big and small bags, full of things for raising a child.
Fei Yuan told Yan all the precautions for feeding milk.
Yan remembered everything.
It turns out that raising a child is also a technical job, not at all easier than cultivation.
Fei Yuan was a little unhappy about being suppressed by the old fox, but now he finally caught the opportunity to be a "teacher"!
...
In the first few days, Yan was flustered while feeding the cub, needing Fei Yuan to help and guide him. Later, he quickly got the hang of it and could take care of the child on his own.
He himself understood the way of medicine, and knew everything about the child's health and development, so Sang Luo also felt relieved to leave the child to him, gaining some leisure.
A few years later.
Sang Luo lay on the hanging rattan chair in the courtyard, the fragrance of the magnolias above was strong. This was specially made for her by Yan. Usually, she would lie here to bask in the sun and enjoy the breeze, which was quite leisurely.
A snow-white little fox ran in from outside the door, jumped into her arms, and said in a childish voice, "Mother, Sister Zhenzhen is bullying me again!"
The little fox had fluffy, snow-white fur, nine big, furry tails wagging, and a pair of round, charming fox eyes, the corners of his eyes upturned, naturally lined, beautiful beyond words!
Sang Luo was charmed by her fox son, hugged him, kissed his furry little face, and then took a mesmerizing deep breath of the warm, sun-dried scent on his snow-white fox fur, "Oh? How did Sister Zhenzhen bully you? Mother will avenge you!"
A beautiful little girl in a red dress ran in, "Woo! I didn't bully Little Nuo Nuo, I just wanted to play games with him!"
Little Qi and the others also ran over in a puff of smoke, all dirty, but having a great time playing outside!
Sang Luo had spent most of her time in Qingqiu these past few years, and often brought the children over to play.
The Godly Venerable's Mansion had been quiet for so many years, but now it was lively!
Sang Luo gave the fox cub a nickname, Nuo Nuo.
When he slept, he curled up and gathered his nine big tails together, looking like a white glutinous rice ball from a distance ~
