Baili An recognized the true identity of "Rong Lijun" while sheltering from the storm. Startled and seemingly mesmerized, Baili An was then distracted when Yin Baishuang, hurt by his reaction, fled into the snow. "Rong Lijun" then revealed Yin Baishuang's identity to her and followed her, shielding her from the elements and teasing her about her past. As Baili An arrived, he pointed his umbrella at "Rong Lijun", leaving Yin Baishuang frozen.

Yin Baishuang's brow creased, her expression icy. "Alright, alright, so he's truly a delicate and fragile young master, huh? You just can't stand him being in such cold and snow, can you?"

Being deprived of men by all sorts of women is one thing.

But in this world, none of the men are easy to deal with!

"Rong Lijun" feigned a weak cough, as if fearing the world wasn't chaotic enough.

Baili An, seeing her on the verge of tears, immediately seized "Rong Lijun's" umbrella.

Holding an umbrella over each of their heads, not a single bit of wind or snow managed to touch them.

He himself, however, stood foolishly outside the protection, battered by the wind and snow.

Lowering his voice, he explained through tightly pressed lips: "Xiaoshuang, the snow and cold of Shifang City, she still has a child in her belly, she can’t be exposed to the cold at a time like this."

"Right, right... I can’t handle the cold, after all, my belly... huh?!! A child? What child??"

’Rong Lijun’ blurted out along with Baili An’s words, abruptly realizing something was amiss, and her brow furrowed instantly.

Baili An was taken aback, witnessing ’Rong Lijun’s’ genuine confusion, which caused a slight blockage in his heart.

Although it's said that if an enchanting demon conceives through the normal way, the pregnancy term is exceptionally long.

So much so that after three years, Baili An still saw her belly as flat and slender.

Could this foolish woman possess such a large heart that she'd forgotten she was pregnant and just gallivanted around for so long?

Baili An had imagined this unruly, troublemaking cat would remember the child within her belly and act with a degree of restraint.

She wouldn't act entirely recklessly, indifferent to her own life.

Who would have thought this heartless little minx had already forgotten she ought to have been taking care as her labor approached.

Observing Baili An’s progressively darkening and unhappy expression, ’Rong Lijun’ understood he was referring to that magical stone.

It was merely a misunderstanding in the first place; for either corpse demons or enchanting demons, childbirth is never a simple matter, and it was simply due to the incompetence of the doctors in the Demon World back then.

Ning Feiyan discovered it was false later on and didn't dwell on it, slowly forgetting this minor misunderstanding over the span of three years.

Yet, she never anticipated this foolish cat would still cling to the notion of their little one.

Comparing both their attitudes made her appear as a heartless woman who left after sleeping with him, unburdened by any attachments.

"Ah... Oh, you mean that, um, yes." Ning Feiyan smoothly shifted her tone, her skill in exploiting situations being superb.

She cast her gaze, her voice low and enchanting within her moist eyes: "I’m pregnant with Young Master Ji’s child, I can’t withstand the cold, you must protect me with great care, Young Master Ji~~"

She spoke with such apparent sincerity, as if something truly had transpired between Ji Xinnian and that philandering Immortal Lord of Asheng Sect.

Yin Baishuang's expression was thunderstruck, her beautiful eyes widening in utter shock.

Her trembling hands covered her mouth, which gaped open in disbelief, causing her to stagger back two steps.

"You... you two... you... you actually..."

Finally, tears of despair and collapse erupted: "You actually got the Immortal Lord of the Upper Pure Realm pregnant, I misjudged you!"

Her voice was not low at all, and the nearby suitors walking together heard it clearly.

Situ Ye, who had just plucked a blooming peony from the garden, watched it fall with a plop to the ground.

He was dumbfounded, murmuring: "Oh my goodness, things really escalated."

No wonder at the banquet earlier, whenever someone dared to say anything against that boy, Rong Lijun would relentlessly pursue them.

It turns out the two had already established an 'intimate' relationship prior to today?

Rong Lijun’s series of actions at the banquet were, in reality, about fiercely 'husband-protecting,' weren't they?

Everyone shuddered with disgust upon hearing this.

The affection between males was a storied tradition, and in this flourishing era of the Immortal Path and Heavenly Dao, even within the Upper Pure Immortal Realm, it was quite commonplace.

In the mortal realm, the concept of males giving birth is utterly absurd.

But in the Immortal World, where wondrous spiritual objects are abundant, it is not entirely unheard of for Immortal Lords to spiritually cultivate and birth new beings together, although it is exceedingly rare.

Still, you are a dignified Immortal Lord, even if your tastes diverge from the norm.

You ought to find someone of equal nobility to associate with.

Why involve a fickle commoner instead?

Yet, never mind, Immortal Lords love all of humanity.

Even falling for a mortal is acceptable, and genuinely caring is no issue.

But you actually ended up beneath him, lacking any semblance of dignity...

A mighty seven-foot man, once renowned and esteemed, now pregnant.

Truly a profound disgrace to your Asheng Sect.

This is indeed profoundly baffling.

And that Que Shenjun too, equally undignified.

Who would have thought that these two, celestial Immortal Lords revered across the land, would be locked in such a desperate struggle over an ordinary man? And to see the proud offspring of immortals weeping as if their beloved had been snatched away! Truly, a most undignified spectacle.

Baili An struggled to comprehend the scene, knowing full well it was Ning Feiyan's peculiar sense of humor at play. She shot Ning Feiyan a stern look, then lowered her voice to explain:
