When they came to the main hall, everyone sat together and chatted about Su Wan’s situation.
“Nephew Liu, my Wife’s condition is now very bad, and she has been resting in bed all the time. Do you think it is possible to follow the example of Nephew Jiang and give birth by cesarean section?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Qin Yuan asked.
“Yes, my Sister and Brother-in-law have a very good relationship. My Sister’s biggest wish is to give birth to a child for my Brother-in-law. However, my Sister is not young and her strength is not low, so she hasn’t conceived a child after looking forward to it for many years. Now that she is finally pregnant, my Elder Sister won’t abort her baby no matter what my Brother-in-law says, she insists on desperately trying to give birth to the child.” Su Xue’s eyes turned red when she said this.
“Which Mother would be willing to sacrifice her own flesh and blood to protect herself?” At this point, Jiang Xu sighed. Back then, when he was pregnant with Xuanxuan, he actually made the worst case plan. If only one could live during his pregnancy, then he must leave the chance of survival to Xuanxuan.
“Senior Brother Jiang, you have also experienced such a thing. You can best understand my Sister’s current mood and difficulties. So, please Senior Brother Liu, you must help my Sister, please!” Su Xue shed tears as she begged Liu Mufeng to help her Sister.
“Yes, Nephew Liu, please help me! After the matter is completed, I will definitely thank you with a lot of money.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Qin Yuan begged in a low voice.
“City Lord, don’t worry, Junior Sister Su, I will do my best. Please take me to see Madam.”
Liu Mufeng didn’t dare to say that he would be able to help if he had not seen the patient yet, so he could only wait until he had seen and checked Su Wan’s situation before he could confirm.
“Okay, please come this way.” After getting up, Qin Yuan led everyone to the bedroom at the back.

Stepping into the bedroom, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help sniffing, and when he turned his gaze around the room, he saw a few potted plants placed by the window. His eyes moved around over a dozen pots of green plants, and Liu Mufeng frowned involuntarily, thinking:The wife of the City Lord actually has poisonous flowers by her side, why is that? Could it be that he didn’t see that it was a poisonous flower, or was someone deliberately poisoning this lady?
Thinking of this, Liu Mufeng glanced at Qin Yuan again. Seeing this man’s worried appearance, he didn’t look like someone who would poison his wife. However, even if this kind of thing wasn’t done by this man, he must have caused the Madam’s misfortune, most likely it was awoman in the back courtyardwho was doing this evil work. As the Lord of a City, it was impossible for Qin Yuan to have only one wife. There should be other women in the courtyard.
Bringing everyone to the bed, Qin Yuan introduced them to his Wife, and then helped his pale-faced Wife to sit on the bed leaning on the pillows.
“Madam’s complexion looks this bad?” Liu Mufeng frowned frequently as he looked at the pale complexion of the City Lord’s wife.
“Sigh, it may be because I’m too old, and since I was pregnant with the child, my energy andqihave declined drastically.” The wife of the City Lord sighed, and said a little helplessly.

“Looking at Madam’s hand bones, Madam is 8300 years old this year, isn’t it?” Looking at his patient, Liu Mufeng asked again.
“Yes, I have the strength of nine stars in the Spiritual Profound Realm. I am 8,300 years old this year. It stands to reason that a cultivator in the Spiritual Profound Realm can live for 10,000 years, but I am already over 8,000 years old. Among the cultivators in the Spiritual Profound Realm, this age is already not young. Therefore, now that I am pregnant, my blood will inevitably decline.” Speaking of this, Su Wan was also very helpless. She had been married to her husband for five thousand years, but he had never had any heirs. She was finally pregnant, but she did not expect that it would be so difficult to conceive.
“Madam, are you five months pregnant?” Judging from the pulse, Liu Mufeng deduced that the other party was five months pregnant.
“Yes, I’m five months pregnant. Elder Zhu said the baby is growing well.” The wife of the City Lord touched her belly with relief.
Looking at the benevolent lady of the City Lord, Jiang Xu couldn’t help frowning. He felt that her situation was really more difficult than his. In his case, the baby’s position was not good but he was not so weak that he was bedridden. Moreover, the wife of the City Lord was more than 8,000 years old, and now that she finally got pregnant with her husband’s child, it was so pitiful and difficult.
“Mufeng, you must find a way to help the Lady of the City Lord” Pulling his lover’s sleeve, Jiang Xu sent a voice transmission to his lover, hoping that his lover would help.
Turning his head, Liu Mufeng smiled and glanced at his lover. Quietly sending a voice transmission in reply : “I will.” and thought:Xiao Xu is feeling so distressed seeing the situation of the City Lord’s wife. Alas, whoever said that his wife was a murderous devil, killing people without blinking an eye? His wife was certainly very kind!
“Madam, you are such a great Mother.” After only five months of pregnancy, this lady’s strength has dropped from nine stars in the Spiritual Profound Realm to three stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm. She was likely to become an ordinary person, but even so, she never thought of aborting and killing her child. This was the so-called maternal love.
“Fellow Daoist Liu, you are over praising. My greatest wish is to hope that the child can be born safely. It doesn’t matter if I can’t accompany them. So, please make sure to keep my child.” Looking at Liu Mufeng with teary eyes, the Wife of the City Lord said in a low pleading voice.
“Madam, what are you talking about? How can a child be without a Mother? How can it be?” Qin Yuan’s eyes turned red and hugged his weak partner tightly.
“Husband, I, I am not afraid of death, but you must take good care of our child. Do you understand?” Looking at her husband, the wife of the City Lord said stubbornly, no matter
what, she would give birth to this child for her partner.
“Madam! Don’t say these things.” There were tears in the man’s eyes.
“Sister, don’t be like this, you’ll be fine, and my little Nephew will be fine, Sister, don’t be like this, don’t be like this.” Looking at her weak Sister, Su Xue began to cry again.
“Alas…” With a sigh, Liu Mufeng let go of the City Lord’s Wife’s wrist. “To be honest, Madam’s physical condition is really not very good.”
“Nephew Liu, please find a way to save my wife and child.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Qin Yuan begged in a low voice.
“The child is five months old and if he’s born through caesarean section at this time, the child will have certain risks. My suggestion is to recuperate the body of the City Lord’s Wife first, and wait until six months before taking the child by caesarean section. In this way, the Wife’s body will also be recuperated slowly.” Looking at Qin Yuan and his Wife, Liu Mufeng gave his own suggestion.
“I’ll give birth in six months, will the baby be okay?” Thinking of this, the City Lord’s Wife was very worried.
“Madam, don’t worry, we can put the child in an incubator. The child will stay in the incubator for a few months, and he can leave the incubator when he grows stronger.” Liu Mufeng said as he looked at the City Lord’s Wife.
“Incubator?” Hearing this, the City Lord’s Wife was puzzled.
“Yes, my Son was born at seven months, and he was placed in an incubator when he was born. Mufeng said that the incubator was like a Mother’s belly, and the child would be very comfortable in it.” Jiang Xu smiled as he said this.
“The incubator needs to be customized. I made an incubator using the first-level flame stone and the third-level jasper bamboo. I invited a fourth-level craftsman in the sect to help refine it. I even searched for materials before refining it, it took two months.” Looking at the two, Liu Mufeng said so.
“Two months? This, so long?” Hearing this, Qin Yuan frowned.
“Nephew Liu. The Wife of the City Lord has been pregnant for more than five months. If she gives birth in six months, it will be too late to customize the incubator. Why don’t you lendXiaoXuanxuan’s incubator to Fellow Daoist Qin?” Elder Zhu asked Liu Mufeng.
Hearing this, Qin Yuan’s eyes lit up. “Yes, Nephew Liu, please help me. I am willing to spend a lot of money to buy your incubator.”
“City Lord Qin, if you don’t dislike it, I can lend you my Son’s incubator. However, the most urgent task now is to recuperate your Wife’s health. I have something to say, and I don’t know if I should ask it?” Liu Mufeng hesitated to speak.
“Oh? Nephew Liu has something to say, but it’s okay to say it.” Looking at Liu Mufeng who looked worried, Qin Yuan was a little puzzled, not knowing what the other party wanted to say.
Looking at Qin Yuan, Liu Mufeng could tell that this man really cared about his wife and child, and it wasn’t just hypocrisy. Turning around, Liu Mufeng pointed to the flowers and plants in front of the bed. “These potted plants are raised by Madam?”
“En, yes, I like the fragrance of flowers, so I raised some spiritual flowers.” Nodding, the Wife of the City Lord said yes.
“Madam, do you know the name of that pot of pink flowers?” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng pointed to the pot of poisonous flowers.
Hearing this, the City Lord’s Wife followed the direction of the other party’s finger and looked at it for a long time. She shook her head. “I don’t know this pot very well. It was given to me by Sister Rong‘er. She said it was a crabapple flower.”
“That’s not a crabapple flower. Its name is Xueyan. Xue as in thexueof blood, and Yan as in theyanin the bewitchingYan.” Looking at the crowd, Liu Mufeng said word by word.
“Blood? What is that? It’s a poisonous flower, right?” Su Xue was shocked when she heard the name.
“Is it a poisonous flower?” Hearing this, Qin Yuan was also shocked.Poisonous flowers, there were poisonous flowers in his Wife’s room???
“It is indeed a poisonous flower, but it is not very poisonous. However, Madam’s current situation is quite special. When she smells the fragrance of this flower every day, the spiritual energy and blood in her body will be sucked by the flower. If things go on like this, even a woman who is not pregnant, the cultivators’qiand blood will naturally decline.” Liu Mufeng felt that the reason why the City Lord’s wife’sqiand blood declined so much was probably due to this poisonous flower. It would not kill her with a single blow, but slowly tossed her little by little. One could imagine how vicious the heart of the person who used this poisonous flower was.
“That bitch, that bitch!” Letting go of his Wife in his arms, Qin Yuan got up angrily and wanted to find someone.
“Is this person City Lord Qin’s concubine?” Seeing Qin Yuan’s murderous appearance, Liu Mufeng asked.
“Yes, I didn’t intend to take a concubine, but my Father saw that I had no children, so he gave me two women, one of which was Zhang Rong’er.” Speaking of this bitch, Qin Yuan gritted his teeth with hatred.
“City Lord Qin, the person who sent the flowers may not be the person who poisoned your Wife. Why don’t you ask your servants to invite the two wives over and interrogate them carefully?” Since they were two concubines, It would be really hard to determine if the real person who poisoned the Wife was this Zhang Rong‘eror not.
“That’s right, Nephew Liu is right, the person who gave the flowers may not necessarily be the person who poisoned her.” Nodding, Elder Zhu said the same. It was said that the women in the back courtyard were like wolves and tigers. This was not wrong at all. He had also been puzzled, how could theQiand blood of the Madam of the City Lord decline so badly? It turned out that it was caused by this poisonous flower.
“En!” Nodding, Qin Yuan turned around and left.
