Chapter 171 Demon Lord × Flower Fairy 9
Peony nestled in his arms, chattering on and on about children.
Mo Yuan, worried that she would get tired, took the things from her hands and put them aside.
Peony looked at him with a puzzled expression.
“Someone else will do these things; you don’t need to do them yourself,” Mo Yuan explained softly. “Your heart isn’t in these trivial matters.”
"Husband, he'll be alright, won't he?" Peony's hopeful eyes betrayed her fear.
Mo Yuan didn't know how to comfort her, so he lowered his head and touched her lips, saying in a hoarse voice, "I promise."
Peony then smiled and nestled her soft body into his arms: "I knew it, my husband is the most powerful, he will definitely be able to protect him."
"Mm," Mo Yuan replied hoarsely, his resolve to protect the mother and child growing stronger.
He straightened her clothes, and the beauty looked up at him with a smile. Mo Yuan couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her again.
Peony responded gently, her soft lips brushing against it.
After a while, the beauty's lips were slightly swollen, her eyes sparkling, and she looked at him with seductive eyes.
Mo Yuan's body stirred restlessly, but he tried his best to suppress it and pulled the person into his arms.
……
That day, Luo Li brought ginseng soup to the outside of the Demon God Temple. She wanted to investigate for herself. Just as she arrived outside the temple, she was wondering why no one was guarding it when she heard faint voices coming from inside.
"Princess, please don't move around. You don't need to make these things. Prince Yuan instructed me to watch over you." Haitang was quite helpless. Before she knew it, the princess was sewing little clothes herself again.
"Just don't tell him, I'll do it secretly," Peony said in a low voice.
“Princess…” Haitang’s voice was filled with helplessness.
When Luo Li heard the news with her own ears, she almost ground her teeth to powder. Consort Dan was indeed pregnant!
The sounds were still coming from inside, but they were not clear. Luo Li had no interest in listening anymore and walked toward the Demon Shadow Palace with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty..." Sang'er whispered a reminder, "King Yuan is ahead..."
Luo Li snapped out of her thoughts and looked up. Mo Yuan was in a pavilion not far ahead, with Mo Ye standing behind him, as if they were discussing something.
Slow down your breathing, step forward a few paces, and listen attentively.
"The matter of attacking...the Flower Realm can be discussed later." Mo Yuan's voice was low and somewhat tired.
Initially, I thought that if I could persuade the Flower King without resorting to force, that would be ideal. If not, I could use the Flower Realm Princess as leverage, and the Flower King would surrender. But now…
The thought of Consort Dan risking her life to bear his child threw Mo Yuan into turmoil; he could no longer do that.
"Prince Yuan, have you really made up your mind?" Mo Ye asked.
"Go and give the order; there's no need to say more."
"Yes……"
Luo Li covered her mouth in shock. Did the Abyss King mean that they were originally going to attack the Flower Realm?
Now, however, he hesitates.
It must be because of Consort Dan's pregnancy that the Prince Yuan's plans were disrupted.
With her heart pounding in her chest, Luo Li quickly returned to the Demon Shadow Palace, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Sang'er, has the stuff arrived?"
"Your Majesty, we have obtained the item." Sang'er said cautiously, "The Demon Queen said... this item is harmful to the body, and it is best not to use it unless absolutely necessary."
Luo Li took the brocade box, opened it, and looked at the abortion pill inside. A moment of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes. The flower demon had already taken over the Yuan King's heart. If she were to give birth to the child, Consort Dan's position would be unshakeable.
As the Demon Queen, she had no face to show anyone. As the princess of the demon realm, Luo Li would never allow such a thing to happen.
She only wanted to be like her father and mother, to be with one person for life.
“Your Majesty…” Sang’er was a little worried.
Luo Li's eyes flickered. She closed the brocade box, another idea forming in her mind.
If Consort Dan finds out that the Prince of Yuan is going to attack the Flower Realm, it will be quite a spectacle.
Consort Dan is pregnant with Prince Yuan's child, yet Prince Yuan wants to attack her maternal clan. It's quite amusing to think about.
"Go and put it away carefully." Luo Li's lips curled slightly. Now that Prince Yuan and Consort Dan had fallen out of love, her opportunity had arrived.
Sang'er quickly took it: "Yes, Your Majesty." It's best not to use it, it's best not to use it.
Inside the Demon God's Palace, Peony lay pale on the bed. Since morning, she had been feeling unwell, with a dull ache in her abdomen.
A bad feeling welled up in her heart. In order to prevent Haitang and Taohua from noticing her strange behavior, she sent them away by saying that she wanted to eat pastries from the Flower Realm.
After lying down for a while, the pain persisted. Peony propped herself up and sat up, placing her hands on her abdomen, closing her eyes, and gently activating her spiritual energy. A comfortable feeling slowly flowed into her body, and the pain in her abdomen gradually disappeared.
Peony collapsed, utterly exhausted, and gently closed her eyes to catch her breath.
The baby in her womb gradually becomes restless, and her body will find it increasingly difficult to cope.
"What happened!" Mo Yuan had just entered the palace when he saw Consort Dan collapsed on the bed in a disheveled state: "Where do you feel unwell?"
Peony barely opened her eyes, her gaze flickering for a moment. How did he get here at this hour?
"It's nothing..." Peony began to explain, but her voice was weak and feeble.
Looking at her disheveled appearance, Mo Yuan instantly thought of the child in her womb. The Demon Doctor had said that she couldn't bear it.
"Can you still hold on?" Mo Yuan asked in a hoarse voice.
Peony forced a smile: "I'm fine, he's very obedient."
She herself didn't believe this, let alone the Demon Abyss.
"I've already used my spiritual power to calm him down, he's alright now," Peony explained again.
Mo Yuan was deeply moved. She was pregnant with the Demon Lord's child, and her spiritual power would naturally weaken. If she were to further activate her spiritual power to protect the child, then she…
"I have found the Myriad Spirit Pearl. If you consume it, it will protect you all." Mo Yuan couldn't bear to see her suffer so much.
Peony's eyes sparkled slightly, brimming with hope: "Really?"
"It will only take two more days. The Tian Shan snow lotus needs to be picked fresh, and Mo Ye has already gone to find it." Mo Yuan lowered his voice: "Just two more days of hard work."
Peony weakly raised her face with a smile: "Okay... I'll do whatever my husband says."
Haitang and Taohua returned carrying Hundred Flower Cakes. Before they could even speak, they saw Prince Yuan inside, and the two of them knelt down to beg for forgiveness.
"If you don't serve her well next time, go back to the Flower Realm!" Mo Yuan was worried when he thought about how Dan Fei had been alone here just now.
"Yes...we dare not do it again," Haitang and Taohua said in trembling voices.
"I wanted to eat, so I told them to go," Peony said anxiously. "Don't blame them."
"How can you manage without anyone around? This must never happen again."
The Demon God Palace was his own residence. He disliked having many people around him, and usually only Mo Ye was by his side. When Dan Fei moved in, there were only two people serving her.
"I understand..." Peony replied.
Mo Yuan's expression softened, and he personally fed her the pastry: "Here."
Peony took small bites and ate several pieces in a row.
Seeing that she could eat and her expression was no longer as bad as before, Mo Yuan said in a deep voice, "Get up."
"Yes, Your Highness Xie Yuan." Haitang and Taohua stood up and stepped aside to serve.
"I'll help you rest for a while." Mo Yuan helped her lie down, noticing how pale she was.
Peony simply nodded weakly and fell asleep.
