Chapter 116 - Bonus Chapter - The Extraordinary Conception

#this novel is hosted puretl(.)com / do not repost

One day, Su Yu ate ginseng and was nauseated for a long time. She was suddenly overcome with emotion. She was pregnant.

For this reason, not only did the seven-story tower have a discount, but it also launched a children's package.

It was just that Su Yu didn't think clearly. Not only was this package making less money, but she also couldn't use it herself.

A child born of immortal Taoist companions would have an immortal body.

Both her and Xiao Muge's qualifications were very high. As a result, the child's starting point was higher.

"Do you think the baby will be more like you or more like me?"

Su Yu held a children's book at night and gave the baby in her belly some prenatal education.

Xiao Muge was in the bedroom, making a small wooden bed for the child.

He carefully sanded a hundred years old pine wood, making sure there was not a single thorn inside.

He also rejected Su Yu's proposal to make the small bed herself, fearing that the child would be born with immortal power and the bed would be broken. Then, he would have to wake up and have supper in the middle of the night.

Hearing her question, he thought for a while and then said, "It's all fine." It seemed that neither of them had any big disadvantages.

"I'm afraid the baby will inherit the shortcomings of the two of us, which will be embarrassing."

Su Yu was a little worried and rubbed her stomach.

But she kept her voice down, fearing that the baby would listen and inspire some thoughts.

Xiao Muge's hands that were holding a wooden stick paused.

He washed his hands and walked back to the bed.

Inside the grape-patterned bed curtain, she was dressed in a moonlight-white dress and holding her stomach seriously. His throat twitched when he asked, "Do you think I have shortcomings?"

Su Yu: "..."

'Is this the point?'

He reached out and touched her belly, giving the baby a sound-stopping array.

"Madam, what are my shortcomings?"

"No shortcomings. Why are you covering the baby's ears? Do you have a guilty conscience?"

"Well, I'm afraid the baby won't listen to me later."

"..."

'Old rascal!'

Su Yu threw his hand away but did not cancel the baby's sound-blocking array. While holding her stomach, she thought hard. "Actually, when I think about it, I also can't think of my own shortcomings."

The Heavenly Monarch Xiao chuckled softly.

Su Yu: "..."

'What are you laughing at?'

The Jasper Turtle passed by their room, covering his ears as he walked.

'Poor baby.'

'Listening to these two parents touting each other and mixing oil with honey. Even this turtle can't stand it.'

"Xiong Feng, I think the little prince or princess will simply be called Honey Baby in the future." The Jasper Turtle could only discuss this with Xiong Feng.

When Xiong Feng heard the word, its gluttonous eyes turned and it pulled out the honey lollipop from its mouth.

Jasper Turtle spread its hands, "Not your kind of honey."

Xiong Feng murmured and turned its eyes again.

Anyway, their suggestion didn't count.

Regarding the baby's name, Su Yu was also thinking about it. She wrote several large characters in a row.

Master Su deeply felt that parents all over the world wish they could apply the most beautiful words with the best blessing for their child's name.

For the first time, she had difficulty choosing.

Before the child was born, as the most popular fairy, she was invited to two baby showers.

One was from the family of the Queen of Blue Birds. After she came, she saw a few oval snow-white eggs that glowed like gemstones.

The other was a child of the sky rooster. When she came, a tender egg rolled around and half of the eggshell was covered with a cloud of fairy mist.

The fairies and immortals laughed. "Save the steps of making pants and changing diapers then."

When Su Yu came back, she sighed at the baby's father. "Eggshell is very good." 

The required nutrients were enough and the shell was protected. When the child came out of the eggshell, they would be at least Earth Immortal level.

Heavenly Monarch Xiao nodded, but he still felt that his own baby was very good. He patted Su Yu's belly and said, "I have learned how to change diapers."

"Jasper Turtle and Xiong Feng also have learned. There is no problem."

Su Yu also nodded. "For trousers, I will make more bean skin and cut cloth. The child will use it very quickly and I will not feel bad when the baby changes trousers. The baby will be able to eat it and supplement its nutrition."

As she said this, her belly moved.

"See? Baby also thinks this is good." 

The belly moved even more.

Both of them felt prepared and everything was infallible.

Su Yu also took the time to make a few bean-curd moonlight-colored clothes for herself and the child's father.

After many years, she had finally learned to cut clothes.

"Baby, mom has made a mother-child style and father-child style. Our family's uniforms are all ready."

That night, the child rushed out.

Su Yu felt a stomach ache, grabbed Xiao Muge's hand and sighed, "The baby seems to like our family's uniform."

It would be strange if the baby liked it.

The baby was born in a hurry without disturbing her too much.

The process was almost eight times faster than normal. Master Su couldn't protest at all.

'Baby--doesn't want a bean curd diaper.'

'After urinating and dirty my trousers, I had to eat it myself...'

'Woooo~'

'So sad. Baby cried out in mom's belly.'

'Baby refuses.'

When Su Yu supported herself and sat up, she was dumbfounded and looked at the "egg" in front of her with complicated emotion.

"This... did the baby learn from the Queen of Blue Birds and that sky rooster?"

Heavenly Monarch Xiao had no idea.

But after pondering for a while, he held Su Yu's trembling hands

"Don't worry. This baby is born immortal and already has spiritual consciousness. Let's teach it slowly and then it will understand. It's just right that it comes early. Their immortal body is not perfect enough. If the baby likes to be in an egg, then let it stay for a while."

Their 'egg' was different from the egg Su Yu saw before. Those were all true immortal birds whose shells were light and firm. Only when the time came the child would grow up, pecked the shell and then the child could come out.

But Su Yu's "baby" only knew what it saw when it was in the womb.

It was oval, pointed at both ends, with a fat belly in between. But it did not learn the texture of a shell.

So this 'shell', like a pink lotus bud, was made up of fragrant petals.

Even babies had their own aesthetics.

Su Yu held the tender yellow bean skin and was silent.

The 'diaper' had a faint bean fragrance. Su Yu had specially learned from the mortal world, leaving the side seams of the cloth hanging for easier changing.

It could expose the baby. It was breathable and comfortable.

As a result, as soon as she came with the diaper, the lotus bud turned over and faced away from her.

Su Yu: "..."

"Baby, are you shy?"

Master Su did not expect that the result would be like this.

"What are you afraid of in front of your own mother? Mother and father are both thick-skinned. Let's be obedient and not be ashamed."

Heavenly Monarch Xiao raised his eyebrows and immediately refrained his own words, "Let the child go with the flow."

He checked several times and confirmed that the baby was healthy. It was just immature.

The lotus bud was held in his arms, but it was still stubborn even though the bones had not yet grown.

Several immortals with experience in raising children had all come to see it.

They had a lot of suggestions. "This is the same as xx, don't worry." "The child has spiritual consciousness, so it has its own ideas early." "When the time comes, it will naturally come out from the lotus." and so on.

It would be good for them, the parents, to watch for a while.

So, Fairy Su and Heavenly Monarch Xiao started their days to 'incubate' the lotus bud.

They also went to learn from the bluebird and the sky rooster.

"Hatching eggs must keep them warm all the time, but don't press too hard and break the shell."

Heavenly Monarch Xiao came back immediately. The cot made by him got additional four layers of thick velvet pads.

In the pad, there was a shallow pit in the shape of an egg.

Just enough to make the lotus bud sit, lie down obediently in it and not roll.

Then, he covered it with a silk quilt and pulled it all the way down to the tip of the quilt.

Breathable and warm.

The immortals didn't hesitate to come over. They had to take a look and asked Su Yu to cook from time to time.

So a cloud-like shock pad was placed around the bed.

"If the child gets up and you don't pay attention, it won't hurt if it rolls down."

"Ah, as expected of my disciple and grand disciple of Taoist Mu. It is so smart. It has learned so many things from the beginning and even learned the appearance of an egg. It must be a genius baby~"

Hang Wan'er expressed her approval. "As expected of Second Senior Sister's kid."

The lotus petals were pink and tender, and the shape was elegant and natural.

"This child is good-looking." Yan Yan, who spoke little, did not hesitate to praise Su Yu when he visited.

Yu Dong smiled, "Baby is a good child. I'm sure it's as capable as brother and sister."

Wei Zhao also squinted at it frequently, his eyes not widening for a while, "It really looks like Second Senior Sister."

Su Yu and Xiao Muge: "..."

'What can you see from this?'

They were the egg's parents and they couldn't even look at its appearance.

"During the incubation period, Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, what are you going to do? Do you need our help?"

All the Zhiqiong Peak's disciples jumped up and got ready.

When Taoist Mu saw this good grandbaby, he wanted to retire immediately, "I'll take care of it for you."

But Xiao Muge and Su Yu looked at each other and declined.

They had to hatch this lotus bud by themselves. This child was too smart. They just took a look at the outside world from inside Su Yu’s belly and learned the way.

If this one learnt to be like Taoist Mu, it would be too late to change later.

As a result, the nine-story and seven-story towers take turns to care for the child.

When all the immortals met, Heavenly Monarch Xiao occasionally looked at the temperature of the lotus bud so that he could know whether the child was warm or cold. Then gently swiped the bud a few times to see if it collapsed so as to know if the child was hungry.

When the child was hungry, he would give the baby some fairy energy to eat.

When all the immortals left, he took care of other works and then he carried the lotus bud on his sleeve, put it on the bed and played with a rattle.

"Good child, call me Daddy."

Heavenly Monarch Xiao's face was serious as if he was dealing with a problem.

On the desk, there was a video call and there was a busy picture of Su Yu waving a ladle in the kitchen.

From time to time, she glanced at the video while flipping the wok.

Then she heard the voice of the child's father coming from the earphones.

It was a bit of a slap in the face. "It's a foul. How can you teach the child privately?"

Heavenly Monarch Xiao: "..."

With his slender fingers, he poked the lotus bud. "Also, call Mommy."

As a result, the lazy bud did not say a thing.

Xiao Muge lowered his voice towards the video. "The child is asleep. I will try it later when you come back."

"No lotus flowers today as well?"

Su Yu was ready and immediately put the food on a plate.

"Have you counted the petals?"

Just like checking babies, every half an hour, they counted the number of petals to make sure the baby was still in good condition.

If it was less, it was time to be vigilant.

"I counted it. I took a jade slip and wrote it down. I counted it once, and Jasper and Xiong Feng each counted it once."

Master Su looked strange and hurriedly put down the spatula. "Isn't the child annoyed by you?"

Heavenly Monarch Xiao: "..."

When Master Su went back, she saw a lotus bud standing on the baby's bed and was startled.

'Baby is standing up!'

Maybe because it slept too much, at night, the baby was very awake.

Even when Heavenly Monarch Xiao wanted to overwhelm Master Su, the lotus bud did not lie down on its bed but leaned against the railing of the bed and stood on the bed with its pointed tips, as if facing towards the two of them, looking at its parents who only cared about their own fun.

Parents: "..."

Master Su and Heavenly Monarch Xiao immediately turned into stories of the Eight Immortals and various fairy tales. They stayed by the bed and patted the bud to lull it to sleep.

"Tomorrow, I'll take it to the seven-story pagoda. You have a meeting in the morning and a group of immortals is busy reporting. Most likely causing the child to be sleepy."
