"Male."

After a slight hesitation, Gu Xun'er replied.

"That's easy!"

Upon hearing Gu Xun'er's response, Hun Huan'er appeared relaxed and confident, as if it wasn't a problem at all.

"Easy?" Gu Xun'er's lips twitched upon hearing Hun Huan'er's words. Was it really that easy?

"Hun Xiu" was a Dou Sheng-level powerhouse in the Soul Clan, holding considerable status and influence.

Even the two sons of the Soul Clan's Patriarch, Hun Tiandi, couldn't do anything to him.

Seeking revenge against him was a task that seemed impossible to accomplish in the near future. Yet, Hun Huan'er said it was easy?

She simply had no idea how strong "Hun Xiu" truly was.

What did it mean to be fearless in ignorance? This was a prime example.

If it were really that easy, she would have sought revenge long ago.

"Of course," Hun Huan'er earnestly looked at Gu Xun'er and said, "Sister Xun'er, is your enemy handsome?"

"Uh..." Gu Xun'er subconsciously wanted to refuse to answer upon hearing Hun Huan'er's question.

However, when she saw the serious expression on Hun Huan'er's face, Gu Xun'er nodded reluctantly and said, "He's quite handsome."

Was "Hun Xiu" handsome?

The answer was yes, very handsome.

But so what?

He was still her enemy, and she would seek revenge one day. Time would tell, and no one should underestimate the determination of a young woman.

"In that case, it's easy," Hun Huan'er said, offering a plan to Gu Xun'er.

"Sister Xun'er, since your enemy is powerful, you can't defeat him, and he's handsome, why not marry him, bear him two sons, and if you can't deal with him, you can take care of his sons instead."

"Uh..." Gu Xun'er's mind went blank upon hearing Hun Huan'er's words.

After a while, Gu Xun'er snapped back to reality, and a thought emerged in her mind, "Well, this is actually not a bad idea."

This thought had just surfaced in Gu Xun'er's mind.

Gu Xun'er blushed and quickly dismissed the thought from her mind.

What was she thinking?

"Hun Xiu" was indeed powerful, handsome, and formidable. But she would never marry him, bear his children, and eventually teach his sons a lesson just for the sake of revenge.

After all, those would be her own children as well. The more she thought about it, the redder her cheeks became, like a ripe red apple, tempting someone to take a bite.

Observing Gu Xun'er's flushed face, Hun Huan'er couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister Xun'er, why are you blushing?"

"Huh?" Gu Xun'er touched her own face upon hearing Hun Huan'er's question. She wasn't sure if her face was red or not.

But come to think of it, it did feel quite warm.

"Yes," Hun Huan'er nodded, "It's like a ripe red apple, tempting someone to take a bite."

The little girl was very serious with her analogy.

"What's going on in that head of yours?" Gu Xun'er playfully tapped Hun Huan'er's forehead and then ran away, leaving Hun Huan'er covering her forehead, looking puzzled in the direction Gu Xun'er had gone.

...

In the Kingdom of Jia Ma Empire, in the Snake Clan's desert, was Medusa's secluded place for cultivation.

With the cultivation resources left behind by Hun Tiandi, Medusa had already reached the level of a Second Stage Dou Zong, making her the strongest in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

Recently, Medusa had been feeling as if her power was being absorbed by something, but she couldn't find the source no matter how hard she looked.

Moreover, she had been experiencing constant nausea and the urge to vomit, but nothing would come out.

It was extremely uncomfortable and distracting, making it difficult for her to focus on her cultivation.

"What's been happening to me recently?" Medusa wondered.

"Is it because I've been in seclusion for too long and need to go out for a walk?"

That's what Medusa thought.

After leaving her seclusion, there had been no provocations from other clans towards the Snake Clan, as the Snake Clan was the dominant force in the Tagore Desert.

Who would be foolish enough to provoke them?

Medusa continued walking until she reached the secluded place of the Four Elders. She greeted them and the Four Elders inquired about the situation of the Snake Clan.

Medusa truthfully shared the recent events with them. When the Four Elders asked about Medusa's own condition, without hesitation, she revealed her recent experiences.

Upon hearing Medusa's words, the Four Elders exchanged glances, silently communicating and sharing information.

Then the Elder spoke up, "Queen, could it be that you are pregnant?"

"What?" Medusa's mouth slightly dropped open, as if it could fit a carrot. She was greatly shocked.

However, Medusa was not an ordinary person, and she quickly regained her composure, shaking her head. "How is that possible? How could I be pregnant?"

As she said these words, Medusa's voice showed signs of unease, indicating that she was beginning to doubt and feel anxious.

"Could I really be pregnant?" Such a thought appeared in Medusa's mind.

"Queen, if you want to know for sure whether you are pregnant or not, would you mind if the four of us use a secret technique to check?" the Elder continued.

"Uh-huh."

"I don't mind," Medusa shook her head. She also wanted to find out if she was really pregnant.

...

After using the secret technique to check, the Four Elders exchanged glances and wore solemn expressions as they looked at Medusa. "Queen, after our examination, we can responsibly tell you that you are indeed pregnant!"

"What...?" Medusa was in shock.

When she received confirmation from the Four Elders, her mind went blank.

How was this possible? How could she become pregnant?

...

Distracted, Medusa left the secluded place of the Four Elders. The Elder known as the eldest spoke up, "The Queen is pregnant. I wonder if she will inform that Dou Zun powerhouse."

Second Elder: "The fetus is very powerful. If nurtured properly, our Snake Clan will definitely give birth to a Dou Zun."

"..."

The Four Elders continued to discuss among themselves, exchanging words incessantly.

...

Distracted, Medusa returned to the grand hall of the palace and sat on her throne, feeling extremely unsettled.

She absentmindedly reached into her storage ring and a jade token appeared in her hand.

It was the same jade token that the man had left for her when he departed, instructing her to crush it if she encountered something she couldn't handle, and he would appear immediately.

Now, Medusa looked at the jade token in her hand, contemplating whether she should crush it or not.

After all, she was pregnant, and he played a part in the circumstances leading to her pregnancy.

Holding the jade token, Medusa wavered between crushing it or not. She hesitated for a long time.

Eventually, she put the jade token away and murmured, "If he wants to come back, he can come back on his own. Why should I crush the jade token to summon him?"

"Hmph..."

She snorted coldly and caressed her small abdomen. There was a life growing inside her.
