Chapter 364
"You're really asking for death!"
Dashan swung his giant sword from behind, aiming straight for the Wizard's thigh.
"Oh come on! Dashan, even if you chop off my leg, I'll still be taller than that little midget Lin Zaozao. She looks like a bean sprout and still dares to look down on me. Hmph! Now that I have the beautiful Princess Ye Xi, I don't even care about her anymore."
Seeing the Wizard's incessant chatter, Dashan gave him a disdainful glance, put the giant sword behind his back, and rushed towards Nine Sky Mountain with Jinbao.
This Wizard was simply a lunatic.
The young master had already left, so he couldn't be bothered to argue with the crazy Wizard anymore.
On top of Nine Sky Mountain, Lin Zaozao looked down at the building in front of her.
Magnificent and solemn.
The enormous structure was built on the edge of a steep cliff. Three sides of the building were sheer cliffs, with only a narrow path leading to the front of the building.
On both sides of the path were more precipitous cliffs.
Looking at the steep mountain path, Lin Zaozao felt that even if she tried for eight lifetimes, she would never be able to climb up.
No wonder Princess Ye Xi had sent giant eagles to pick her up. Otherwise, with her abilities, she and her little husbands would have been like the Cowherd and Weaver Girl, gazing at each other from across the mountain for the rest of their lives.
As the giant eagle descended further, Lin Zaozao could finally see the line of people standing at the entrance of the building clearly.
Apart from the Baichi Clan she had met before, standing at the front were all her husbands.
Seeing her husbands with their protruding bellies, Lin Zaozao didn't feel the urge to laugh at the sight of men with big stomachs as she had imagined before.
Instead, she felt a twinge of bitterness.
Her husbands, enduring the hardships of pregnancy with their swollen bellies, were now joyfully waiting for her to come home.
Before the giant eagle could land, Gu Shan, who was standing in the front row, actually flew towards her using his lightness skill, despite his big belly.
Faced with Gu Shan's actions, Lin Zaozao felt her heart leap into her throat.
"Oh my God! Gu Shan, baby, you're a pregnant man! You're carrying a baby in your belly!"
Lin Zaozao quickly embraced Gu Shan as he flew to her side.
After feeling that she had truly held him in her arms, before Lin Zaozao could observe Gu Shan's expression, he beat her to it and tightly wrapped his arms around her.
"Zaozao..."
As soon as Gu Shan spoke, Lin Zaozao could hear the choke in his voice.
"Gu Shan, I'm back," Lin Zaozao said softly, holding Gu Shan tightly.
"Zaozao, the illusion broke. I waited for you for so long, but you didn't come back. I... I thought after you returned to your own home, you'd never come back. Zaozao, I was really, really scared."
"Gu Shan, that won't happen. You're all here, our child is here, so this is my home. I won't become a scumbag who abandons her husbands and children. Gu Shan, as long as I have a breath left in me, I will always come back."
Lin Zaozao embraced Gu Shan, comforting him in a gentle tone.
"Mm! I know, I know you'll come back. Zaozao, I'm sorry. Your past life was really..."
"Gu Shan, what happened in the past is over, and I've had my revenge. That damned demon got what he deserved. So Gu Shan, let's not think about what happened in the past. We should only think about the future now. In the future, we have you all, we have our children, we'll have a perfect and happy family."
"Mm! I understand. Zaozao, the baby in my belly is moving now, do you want to feel it?"
"Hehe! Of course, of course, let me feel my little darling."
Lin Zaozao hugged Gu Shan and planted a big kiss on his face before reaching out to touch his swollen belly.
Just as Lin Zaozao's hand touched Gu Shan's belly, before she could properly feel the baby's movements, Ye Xi, sitting beside her, spoke up, breaking the pink bubble between Lin Zaozao and Gu Shan.
"Ahem, ahem!"
"Hm? What's wrong? Sister Ye Xi, do you have a cold?"
"Zaozao, don't just focus on your little husband Gu Shan, look in front of you!"
Following the direction of Ye Xi's finger, Lin Zaozao saw her husbands looking at her and Gu Shan with expressions ranging from expectant, relieved, and happy, to jealous.
"Pearl, you're back!"
"Zaozao..."
"Sister, you've finally returned."
"Lin Zaozao, do your eyes only see Gu Shan? Don't you see this big peach blossom here?"
"..."
Hearing the voices of her husbands, Lin Zaozao first jumped down from the giant eagle's back, then carefully helped Gu Shan down.
"Tch! Weren't you jumping around happily just now? How come you've turned into an invalid when getting down?"
Xiao Taohua watched Gu Shan being held in Lin Zaozao's arms and said sourly.
"I do as I please! Xiao Taohua, you want to fight?"
Gu Shan wrapped his arms around Lin Zaozao's neck, looking challengingly at Xiao Taohua. He seemed ready to jump down and fight if Xiao Taohua dared to say another word.
"Hey, hey, hey! My 'delicate and tender' little husbands, you're each carrying a baby! What if you teach the babies bad habits by fighting with big bellies?"
Lin Zaozao put Gu Shan down and hurriedly intervened.
Oh, her ancestors! How could they still think about fighting with such big bellies?
Especially Xiao Taohua, look at his big belly now, with one hand on his waist, looking at Gu Shan with an unconvinced expression. He seemed ready to fight if Gu Shan dared to provoke him.
"Xiao Taohua~"
"What? Do you still have eyes for me? You didn't even hug me when you came back, just cuddling with that ice cube Gu Shan. Hmph!"
Seeing Xiao Taohua's tsundere behavior, Lin Zaozao couldn't help but find it amusing.
Alright! After all, he was carrying a big belly, and she had been gone for so long without properly taking care of him and the baby inside.
Just as Lin Zaozao walked forward to wrap her arm around Xiao Taohua's protruding "slender waist" and placed her hand on his belly to feel the baby inside, Xiao Liuli's coquettish voice made Lin Zaozao involuntarily shudder.
"Sister!"
"Yes! I'm here, I'm here."
Lin Zaozao quickly let go of Xiao Taohua and looked to his side.
Seeing Xiao Liuli on the verge of tears, Lin Zaozao immediately felt heartbroken. Xiao Liuli was quite thin, with the only plump part being his big belly.
Looking at his protruding belly, Lin Zaozao could tell just by sight that he must have suffered a great deal.
"Xiao Liuli, are you tired? Do you want to sit down and rest for a bit?"
"Sister, you've finally come back. I thought... I thought you wouldn't return..."
"Xiao Liuli, be good now! You're about to become a father, you can't cry."
"Mm! Sister, I don't want to cry either. I... I was just worried that once you returned to your own home, you wouldn't come back anymore."
"That won't happen, it won't. Xiao Liuli, how could I not come back when I have all of you here?"
"Zaozao, come here."
Meeting Han Ye's gentle gaze, Lin Zaozao let go of Xiao Liuli and went forward to embrace him tightly.
When Lin Zaozao hugged Han Ye, she realized that beneath his loose robes was an incredibly thin body.
Her Han Ye had truly lost a lot of weight.
After hugging Han Ye, this time Lin Zaozao didn't wait for Ji Fantian and the others to speak. Instead, she hugged each of her little husbands in turn.
After the hugs, Lin Zaozao noticed that apart from their big bellies, her husbands had all become much thinner everywhere else.
The reason for their thinness was because she had returned to the illusion of her past life.
They feared that after reliving the hardships of her previous life, she might not want to come back once she returned to her own home.
Lin Zaozao's eyes moistened as she looked at her husbands' protruding bellies.
The reason her husbands stayed here without going out was that in this small world, men were not allowed to be pregnant and give birth.
But for the sake of their children, they could only stay here.
