Huang Yueli and Li Moying revealed their pre-existing marriage from the lower realm and proposed a wedding in the Sacred Phoenix Clan while splitting their post-marriage time equally between the two clans. Elders from both families, though initially stunned, acknowledged the arrangement's fairness as it preserved each clan's claim on the geniuses. Concerns arose over the unborn child's surname and inheritance, prompting Li Moying to disclose that Huang Yueli carries twins.

As soon as Li Moying uttered those words, dead silence descended upon the room.

Be it members from the Sacred Phoenix Clan or the Cloudy Qilin Clan, everyone displayed identical reactions right then. They stared at the pair seated at the head seats with faces pale as if encountering a specter.

Bai Liufeng and his wife stood equally stunned.

Yet the central figures remained utterly composed.

Having dropped this bombshell, Li Moying ignored the shocked faces around him. He pivoted gently, helping his wife settle back into her chair with utmost care. He even poured her tea personally and handed it over.

“Come, Wife, you've spoken so much to them earlier. Feeling weary? Rest well, sip some water, and enjoy these treats.”

Liu Buyan, who rushed in upon hearing the buzz to spectate, lingered by the doorway. Witnessing this, he cringed, shielding his eyes and averting his gaze.

Precisely what exhausting feat had his junior sister performed? A supreme divine-grade prodigy capable of dominating Dao Profound Realm experts—merely rising to speak a few lines left her so drained she couldn't continue? Who on earth would buy that?

Aside from Liu Buyan, no one spared a glance at Huang Yueli or Li Moying's actions. Li Moying's declaration had left them all thunderstruck, lingering in shock for ages before slowly snapping back.

“Young Master… What exactly did the Young Master say? T-Twins?”

“I must've misheard. Definitely misheard. Old age is catching up; now I'm hallucinating…”

“No way, utterly impossible! Young Master and Young Madam are god-level geniuses. Their pregnancy at such youth is already heaven-defying. How could it possibly be twins?”

“Am I dreaming? Went to bed early last night. Pinch me, someone… Ouch!”

Chaos reigned in the hall for quite a while.

Li Moying at first focused solely on tending to his wife and murmuring explanations to his in-laws, dismissing the outsiders entirely.

But the elders from both clans grew overly thrilled. Their clamor swelled, buzzing like swarms of flies around their ears.

Huang Yueli had enjoyed a pampered life in the courtyard lately, with maids working silently. Such racket had been absent for ages, and gradually, her brows furrowed.

Though Huang Yueli's frown lasted but an instant, Li Moying caught it precisely.

A cold glint flickered in his gaze, prompting a loud cough from him.

His cough wasn't forceful, yet it pierced every elder's ears clearly.

Struck dumb like by thunderbolts, they recalled their surroundings at last and restrained themselves. Mouths clamped shut, they swiveled toward the young pair at the head with eager anticipation.

Li Shihong, Patriarch of the Cloudy Qilin Clan, held the loftiest rank among the elders there and ranked as Li Moying's senior.

Right then, all eyes urged him forward to inquire for the group.

Sacred Phoenix Clan elders joined in the silent nudges.

Inwardly, Li Shihong damned those sly Sacred Phoenix Clan foxes for shoving him forward as their front.

Still, his thirst for verifying Li Moying's claim burned fiercer than anyone's, so despite sensing the ploy, he gritted his teeth and stepped up.

Advancing a pace, Li Shihong quavered, “Moying, you…” Did you mean what you said earlier? Is Matriarch Huang truly… pregnant with twins?”
