Chapter 71: Dance of Life 1
"Husband~"
Ximi, the Earth Goddess, emerged from the inner hall. The moment she saw Fanen, her eyes blazed red.
"Dear Ximi, I'm back."
Fanen held out his other hand, and Ximi rushed over, her voice tinged with sobs: "Husband, you're finally back."
This was the longest time Ximi and Fanen had been apart. A full 230,000 years, a period comparable to the time they'd spent together practicing yoga.
Without Fanen by her side, she appeared majestic and overbearing, but inwardly she felt empty and fearful.
Fanen was her heaven.
Even if Fanen did nothing, as long as she was in her presence, Ximi felt safe.
And an unspeakable sense of confidence.
"Madam, what about me? I'm back too."
The filly felt like a mere backdrop, pouting in displeasure.
"Mistress, how can you be so partial? I'm even going to help you bear a child!"
"Hmm~!"
Ximi emerged from Vann's arms and squinted at the young mare, Gina. Her eyes, originally slightly displeased, showed a hint of confusion.
The young mare was still a Kumari, her yoni untouched.
This meant her husband hadn't touched her.
But why would she talk about bearing a child?
(Kumari means virgin.)
(In Indian mythology, a female mistress, or a man's first wife, considers her husband to be heavenly. However, before a husband has sex with another woman, he must notify the mistress, who will tear a piece of white cloth and spread it on the bed, then supervise.)
"Little Gina, if you're naughty again, I'll spank you hard," Vann said with feigned seriousness.
He had just sensed Ximi's displeasure and understood the reason.
"But what little Gina said is true."
Fan's words caused Manlina to break free from his embrace and stand with Ximi.
Uh~
Fan was stunned.
It had only been a short time since he'd left home, and the two little girls were already united.
Looks like I need to step up my game as a husband!
I'll definitely punish them severely later.
"How can I help?"
Ximi's expression remained unchanged, but her tone had changed noticeably, less joyful and more discontented.
First, how could anyone help with childbirth?
Second, children had always been an obstacle for Ximi. She had long wanted to bear a child for Fan's sake.
But as the Primordial Elemental God, it was difficult for her to conceive.
So, she didn't allow anyone to joke about children in her presence.
Manlina had always been by Ximi's side, so she naturally understood her inner thoughts.
"You guys~"
Fan En smiled and stopped teasing the two girls. He said to the young mare, "Hurry up and bring out the Linga fruit and the Yoni flower."
The young mare had previously tacitly agreed to Fan En's words, promising to send the Yoni flower and the Linga fruit to the heavenly realm a few thousand years later.
Now, the young mare was quite happy and immediately released the exotic flowers and fruits from her womb.
"So these are the Yoni flower and the Linga fruit?!"
Ximi and Manlin came over curiously, examining them carefully.
They knew the benefits of these exotic flowers and fruits. Fan En had told them about them when he was poisoned by the Yoni flower.
Not only could they increase the mood of yoga, but they could also increase the chances of pregnancy.
Only then did Ximi realize she had misunderstood.
The young mare, Gina, was truly willing to help her give birth.
"My dear husband, are you planning to leave Lingaguo and Yonihua in Miaozhen Palace? That's wonderful! I can definitely give birth to a child for you."
Ximi's eyes lit up with excitement. She excitedly kissed Fanen on the cheek, then looked at the filly.
"Little Gina, you've done well. Praise the lovely Gina. Mistress will definitely treat you as her own from now on."
Ah~!?
Fanen was stunned.
He sensed Ximi's strong maternal love, her maternal addiction overflowing, as she had already adopted little Gina as her own child.
But he also saw how much Ximi wanted a child.
"Lingaguo and Yonihua must be sent to the Ascension Realm. They'll only stay in Miaozhen Palace for a thousand years."
Fanen knew this was a bit inappropriate, but the filly was still there. He couldn't go back on his word.
"Ah~ Just a loan? Why would you lend it?"
Ximi asked, puzzled.
"Yes, snatch..." Manlina glanced at the filly and didn't finish the rest of the sentence.
But Fanen understood the meaning.
Yes~
During his absence, Manlina had learned to be domineering from her mother.
The word "borrow" no longer existed in the dictionary.
"The yoni flower and linga fruit are Mother's orders. If they aren't sent to the heavenly realm, Gina can't follow the master."
Little Gina looked at Ximi aggrievedly and said weakly, "But it can be postponed for a while. Sending them within a hundred thousand years is fine."
Me?
Fanen looked surprised, turned abruptly, and looked at the filly Gina in disbelief.
A hundred thousand years?!
Even when I asked for ten thousand years, you were so aggrieved.
Even when I finally compromised and offered a thousand years, you were still reluctant.
Now that you've come to the mistress, Ximi doesn't even need to ask. You've just asked for a hundred thousand years.
From the tone of her voice, it seemed as if Ximi could just ask, a million years wouldn't be a problem!
Fan'en instantly felt his dignity severely undermined.
"A hundred thousand years?"
"That's about right, my husband. Let's not waste time."
Ximi gave Manlin a look, and Manlin understood, quickly stepping forward to remove Fan'en's sari.
Fan'en was stunned.
He hadn't even had time to ask what was going on outside Miaozhen Palace.
So many earth-line gods, plus a billion demigods, elves, and dwarfs—it looked like something big was about to happen.
But it was true; it was only a hundred thousand years.
Time was short, and the task was heavy.
Fan'en let the beautiful and lovely Manlin remove his sari while he helped Ximi remove hers.
No, wait!
There seemed to be someone else in the hall.
The young mare Gina was watching the scene with rapt interest when Vann glared at her.
"Little girl, why aren't you getting out of here...hiss~"
Before Vann could finish his sentence, he felt his linga being enveloped by the volcano.
"We'll all be family in the future, why go out? This is a good opportunity to learn something so she doesn't have to teach me later."
Ximi grabbed the aggrieved little Gina, who was about to leave, and said, "Learn well on the side. If your master gets tired, you can help push from behind."
Vann swallowed.
Is it that exciting?
Although he seemed a little reluctant, he had already accepted Ximi's arrangement.
But... tired?
Hmph!
Would I be tired?
"Hiss..."
Vann gasped and looked at the kneeling Manlina in shock. How could he have been in the volcano just now, and suddenly he was in the ice cave?
Could this be a new yoga move invented by Ximiming?
