Chapter 84: Twins
In Soto City's Grand Hotel, VIP Room No. 7 was a standard single suite.
After feeding Yu Xiaogang a sip of the "He River Water," Oscar's illusion spell automatically lifted. He didn't sense anything out of the ordinary and only remembered that he had looked after the master before leaving the room.
At the same time, deep inside Yu Xiaogang's body, a tiny embryo had begun to form without his knowledge.
Oscar was currently in high spirits—because Ning Rongrong had finally begun to "care" about him. She was supposedly worried that the drunken Ma Hongjun might snore too loudly that night, so she gave her room card to Oscar.
—In truth, it was just an excuse Ning Rongrong made up. She was bored and wanted to follow Zhu Zhuqing and run off to Zu Zong's side.
Back in VIP Room No. 7, Yu Xiaogang was sound asleep.
In his dreams—
[Yu Xiaogang sat proudly in the highest seat of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Below him, from the Spirit Hall and the upper three sects down to countless civilian disciples, all bowed before him, begging to become his disciples. After all, he had trained the youngest Titled Douluo in history—Tang San.
Even Zu Zong, once deemed more talented than Tang San, was among them. While Tang San had now become the youngest and most formidable Titled Douluo, Zu Zong remained a mere Spirit Sage. At this moment, he knelt before Yu Xiaogang, sobbing with regret for not having taken him as his master.
Yu Xiaogang laughed, "Haha, Zu Zong, now you finally regret not becoming my disciple back then, don't you?"
Zu Zong kowtowed reverently, "Please, Master, accept me as your student."
"Haha! Too late. I will only ever accept one disciple—Tang San," Yu Xiaogang laughed wildly.
Suddenly, Zu Zong's expression twisted from reverence to rage. He roared, "In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Second Spirit Skill—Blue Silver Blades!"
In the next instant, countless sharp blades burst from the ground, shooting toward Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang panicked. As a Rank 29 Grandmaster, how could he withstand a full-force strike from a Spirit Sage like Zu Zong? He cried out, "Someone! Stop this madman!"
But the only response was cold indifference from the onlookers.
"Didn't you hear? The Grandmaster said he'd only take Tang San as a disciple."
"Yeah! So why should we help him?"
"Zu Zong, kill him! We've got your back!"
"Hit his chrysanthemum!"
"You traitors… All of you!" Yu Xiaogang broke into a cold sweat and screamed, "Where's my disciple, Tang San?!"
Just then, a blue flash shot across the sky and Tang San's broad-shouldered figure appeared. "Tang San is here."
Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up with hope. "Tang San, save me!"
But Tang San no longer showed him any respect. His face was twisted with fury. "Tch, scum! You destroyed my Blue Silver Grass's first soul ring. I will never forgive you!"
"Clear Sky Hammer—Chaotic Wind!"
As the massive hammer shadow came crashing down, despair spread across Yu Xiaogang's face.
Meanwhile, Zu Zong's Blue Silver Blades had already reached his feet.
One blade, as thick as a bowl, aimed straight for his weakest spot—his rear.
Yu Xiaogang's stiff expression turned green, then melted into one of euphoric intoxication. His whole body tingled and softened in an inexplicable pleasure… followed by a surge of sharp pain. He couldn't hold back a scream.
"Ahhh!"
]
Yu Xiaogang jolted awake.
Opening his eyes, he found himself in an unfamiliar hotel room and breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he remember he had drunk too much and Oscar had brought him back.
"Phew, scared this master to death. Just a dream."
Yu Xiaogang's face was drenched in sweat, fat beads trickling down his forehead. His mouth felt dry and parched. He glanced at the half-full glass of "clear water" on the bedside table and smiled gratefully.
"This little Ao is quite thoughtful." With that, Yu Xiaogang downed the remaining half-glass of He River Water.
At that moment, yet another embryo began forming inside his body.
(PS: Yes, women carrying twins can have different fathers—you get it. So let's give him twins. Look how loving Zu Zong is. As for whether He River Water causes instant pregnancies—nope. We're going with the full ten-month term here.)
On Yu Xiaogang's side, he remained completely unaware.
But on Zu Zong's side, things were looking quite… enjoyable.
After returning to the Rose Hotel, Zu Zong first booked a new room for Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong. Then, he carried Xiao Wu back to the room she shared with Ye Lingling.
Just half an hour earlier, right when Zu Zong had given up hope, Zhu Zhuqing had shown up.
Zu Zong was about to leave Soto City and couldn't bear the thought of parting from her so soon, so he wanted to spend the night with her and reminisce a bit (ahem, don't misunderstand—Zu Zong wasn't the kind to cross the line, especially since his little kitty wasn't even 14 yet).
The same went for Zhu Zhuqing. Once she was sure Ning Rongrong had fallen asleep, she quietly slipped out of the room and came to Zu Zong's.
"Achoo." Zu Zong wiped his nose even though there was no mucus.
"What's wrong?" asked Zhu Zhuqing, lying in his arms.
Running his fingers gently through her silky hair, Zu Zong smiled warmly. "Nothing, probably just catching a bit of a cold."
Zhu Zhuqing rolled her eyes at him. As if. You've got lung capacity rivaling a thousand-year soul beast. You just kissed me for ten straight minutes without even needing to breathe.
But she didn't press further. If Zu Zong didn't want to say anything, she wouldn't push. As long as she knew his feelings for her were real, that was enough.
As he caressed her delicate face, Zu Zong murmured in his heart, Sigh… I wonder if the Grandmaster will like that special gift I left for him. I can't wait to see the expression on Yu Xiaogang's face when he finds out he's pregnant.
That scene—without a doubt—would be thrilling. After all, there was no such thing as a "Miscarriage Spring" in the Douluo Continent. Unless one resorted to violent means, that child wasn't going anywhere.
With that in mind, Zu Zong had even thought of a name: since both the father and mother were Yu Xiaogang, let's just name the child Yu'er. If it turned out to be twins, then Da Yu'er and Xiao Yu'er.
Perfect! Great names. With luck, they might even inherit the Golden Holy Dragon Martial Soul someday.
