Chapter 2339 - 2298: A Year of Profound Change

"Bing Tan, there's no old grudge or new enmity between us. You came to kill me just to obey orders, but you failed and got captured by me. To prevent Jade Yumo and the other two women from being persecuted by the Divine Nun's Nunnery, I resorted to this plan, forcibly taking possession of you, trying to have you, so don't blame me..."

"Actually, if you change your perspective, you might consider this the best ending and belonging for you. I don't believe Fairy Bing Tan wouldn't want to marry and have children in the future. You're surely looking for an outstanding man, one who is both young and has strong cultivation. Yet, most men with strong cultivation are old monsters aged hundreds of years. I'm just over thirty, young with high cultivation, immense potential—exactly the kind of man you wish to find. Think carefully, isn't being with me better than those hundreds-year-old monsters..."

"Fairy Bing Tan, I'm discovering that I like you more and more. Why don't you try to like me in return? Oh, by the way, you might use your Divine Sense to check if there's already a small life inside you."

For the past week, Wang Xiaoqiang has been trying to change Fairy Bing Tan, wanting to brainwash her, but Fairy Bing Tan would not even acknowledge him or look him in the eye.

Wang Xiaoqiang seemed like he was talking to himself, but when Wang Xiaoqiang suggested she check for life in her belly, Fairy Bing Tan's heart suddenly leapt, her face turned ashen.

This was precisely what she feared; she would rather Wang Xiaoqiang were childless, but the world wouldn't change according to her wishes.

In fact, Wang Xiaoqiang not only had children, but his sons numbered in dozens, and despite nearing forty years in age, his seed was good, with strong genes, capable of easily impregnating women.

Fairy Bing Tan's delicate body trembled; upon using Divine Sense to inspect internally, she immediately saw a small life in her belly, much like a barley sprout.

Though it had not formed into a fetus and was still very young, she had to admit it was a life, a child she shared with Wang Xiaoqiang.

After seeing this, Fairy Bing Tan fell into despair. Initially, she had hoped to commit suicide, but now even the hope of suicide was gone, replaced by a fear-filled despair regarding the future.

"Bing Tan, now you've truly become a woman, a true woman. You should feel happy, joyful, and hopeful. Think about it, now your life isn't just yours; it includes your child, so you should be positive, optimistic, and cheerful. Imagine when our child is born, I will let him cultivate the best techniques, nurture him with care..."

To wash away Fairy Bing Tan's hatred and change her, Wang Xiaoqiang tried to brainwash her daily, although the effect was minimal. Yet, he kept at it diligently, enjoying the challenge.

It was his nature to enjoy tackling difficult things, liking to challenge the impossible. He despised tasks that were too easy.

Although Wang Xiaoqiang's words had little impact on Fairy Bing Tan, her attitude began to change as the small life in her belly grew and formed into a fetus.

Her hatred for Wang Xiaoqiang diminished considerably, and when she looked at him, there was no longer hatred in her eyes; however, she was reluctant to speak. For the fetus, she also started to eat. Even though not eating would allow the fetus to survive on her Spiritual Power, eating would make the small life more joyful.

Much like herself, she could live without food, but eating and enjoying delicious food brought her joy, and as the mother, her joy brought joy to the life within her.

Despite Fairy Bing Tan's attitude change, Wang Xiaoqiang dared not relax for a moment, fearing she might commit suicide, which would mean the death of two lives.

Next, he released Jade Yumo and the other two women from the Divine Nun's Nunnery to accompany Fairy Bing Tan. Bing Tan, Jade Yumo, and the two other women shared camaraderie as fellow disciples, and conversed together.

At last, Fairy Bing Tan started to speak.

The four women found common ground for conversation, as they were all pregnant and shared similar circumstances, having topics in common. Moreover, Jade Yumo and the other two women had wholly entrusted themselves to Wang Xiaoqiang and were expecting their children to be born soon, naturally spoke in favor of Wang Xiaoqiang, continuously comforting Fairy Bing Tan.

Under the persuasion of the three women, Fairy Bing Tan gradually changed her mind, finally letting go of her hatred for Wang Xiaoqiang.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang was very pleased and relaxed his guard over Fairy Bing Tan, no longer watching her daily, but freeing up his time for other matters, and making time for cultivation, because according to Jade Yumo, the Divine Nun's Nunnery would send someone to hold him accountable soon, probably someone of Elder-level or even the Nunnery Master.

In the Divine Nun's Nunnery, the elders were all Heaven-Stepping Realm six to seven-step experts, and the Nunnery Master had surpassed the Heaven-Stepping Realm, reaching the Soaring Heaven Realm, with strength far beyond what Wang Xiaoqiang could resist.

Wang Xiaoqiang, while cultivating, was also preparing to enter the Primordial Era.

Since in the Ancient Era, he was the ruler, a Divine Emperor, he had a big target on his back, making him easy for the Divine Nun's Nunnery to find. In contrast, if he entered the Primordial Era and hid, the difficulty for the Divine Nun's Nunnery to reach him increased.

While preparing to enter the Primordial Era, he also dispatched numerous scouts and sentinels responsible for vigilance and reconnaissance for Outer Plane invaders. Upon discovering any strong presence from Outer Planes, he would immediately leave the Ancient Era. This was in reality a measure to guard against the Nunnery Master.

However, the following year, the Nunnery Master didn't arrive nor sent anyone to hold him accountable.

That year, significant changes occurred on the Ancient Continent, changes that were almost groundbreaking.

First, under the powerful governance by Wang Xiaoqiang, the Ancient Divine Emperor, the Ancient Continent transformed from a war-torn, riddled state to be thoroughly repaired, flourishing, its populace living in peace, achieving a prosperous and thriving era.

During that year, many events transpired on the Ancient Continent, yet no matter how significant those events were, none were as important as those involving Wang Xiaoqiang.

As Wang Xiaoqiang was the master of the Ancient Continent, his matters were the matters of the realm, especially his strength and the development of his influence, which were particularly important to the whole ancient domain.

In truth, Wang Xiaoqiang's strength hardly changed at all during this year, except his physical body, fortified by the nourishment from the nosebleeds of two Golden Blood Boy sons, grew more robust, nearing a perfect body, although the rest practically stayed the same.

However, his two Golden Blood Boy sons, Wang Wufa and Wang Wutian, their cultivation advanced rapidly. Their Qi Refinement Cultivation already reached the Celestial God level, and their physical body strength advanced from the initial Nirvana State to the Super Physical Body Realm, stepping toward a Perfect Body, essentially meaning these two sons had drawn close to their father Wang Xiaoqiang's Flesh Body Realm.
