Suddenly, he felt two different kinds of Spiritual Power within Ye Yuqiao's body: one was extremely cold, while the other was exceedingly hot.

Having such incompatible Spiritual Powers within her, Ye Yuqiao, of course, felt unbearable.

"Yuqiao, could these two Spiritual Powers be coming from our children?" Chen Hao asked Ye Yuqiao.

Ye Yuqiao slightly opened her eyes to look at Chen Hao and weakly hummed in acknowledgment.

"I was away just now, and everything was fine, wasn't it? How did it suddenly become like this?" Chen Hao continued, looking at Ye Yuqiao's pale face and the cold sweat streaming down, he felt both worried and heartbroken.

"I don't know, after you left, I lay down to sleep. Who would have thought that not long after, the two little ones suddenly started to make a fuss? It shouldn't be a big problem, but I feel so miserable now." Ye Yuqiao clenched Chen Hao's hand tightly, trying to share some of her pain with him.

Feeling the strength from Ye Yuqiao's palm, Chen Hao reached out to touch her belly, soothingly speaking, "Little princess, little prince, you two are not behaving tonight, making Mommy so uncomfortable, Daddy is going to get angry."

Strangely enough, as soon as Chen Hao said these words, Ye Yuqiao felt the two opposing forces of ice and fire within her calm down.

"It seems like they have quieted down," Ye Yuqiao said, with a look of joy on her face.

"Really?" Chen Hao was very surprised and then, with a hint of boastfulness, laughed, "It seems the little princess and little prince listen to Daddy more."

Ye Yuqiao huffed, "Do they only know how to bully me?"

Chen Hao laughed "ha ha" twice and then wiped the cold sweat from Ye Yuqiao's forehead, asking with concern, "How are you feeling now, wife?"

Hearing the word "wife," a faint blush appeared on Ye Yuqiao's pale face. She smiled shyly and then, looking at Chen Hao with a hint of aggrievement, said, "Husband, can you just always stay by my side and not go anywhere? I feel so anxious when you're not around."

Chen Hao nodded with a smile, "Okay, I won't go anywhere, not until our little princess and little prince arrive."

Ye Yuqiao smiled, then shifted her body a little closer to Chen Hao, suddenly furrowing her brow again.

She felt the babies in her belly becoming restless once more.

"Yuqiao, are they misbehaving again?"

Ye Yuqiao, with her eyes closed, shook her head slightly, holding Chen Hao's right hand tightly, "Tell me and the babies a story. Perhaps they are protesting because they haven't heard a story today."

"Sure!" Chen Hao leaned down to kiss Ye Yuqiao on the forehead and then whispered into her left ear, "Today I'm telling the story of how a raccoon turned into a bear cookie."

"What a strange story!" Ye Yuqiao said with a light laugh, momentarily forgetting the pain.

Before long, Ye Yuqiao fell asleep to the sound of Chen Hao's gentle storytelling. From the gradually recovering color in her face, it seemed the babies in her belly had also fallen asleep.

"Could it really be that the babies were causing trouble because they hadn't heard a story?" Chen Hao thought to himself, a sense of inexplicable happiness surging in his heart. Although the situation was alarming just now, this was the first time he truly felt the presence of his children.

After a while, Chen Hao's story finished, and the room became exceptionally quiet.

Looking at Ye Yuqiao's face, still with a hint of pain, he felt very heartbroken. Carrying a child for months, Ye Yuqiao had already suffered quite a bit, and tonight was just the beginning. In the coming months, she would have to endure much more.

Tonight's incident made Chen Hao realize that Ye Yuqiao really needed him now. He needed to stay by her side, every step of the way, to take care of her.

...

...

The next day.

After nightfall.

In the mortal world of City H, at Ye Fei's home.

Opening his eyes and looking at the unfamiliar scene before him, Ye Yu was startled, then suddenly sat up straight on the sofa, observing his surroundings with vigilance.

"You're awake!" At that moment, Ye Fei walked up behind him.

"So it was you, kid. So this is your place!" The wariness on Ye Yu's face instantly vanished, and then he lay back down on the sofa.

Ye Fei showed a wry smile, then sat down on another chair, looking at Ye Yu and said, "Last night, it was Chen Hao who brought you to my place."

"I know!" Ye Yu responded with a complacent air, "Where's that kid now?"

"He's gone!"

"Gone!" Ye Yu exclaimed in surprise, "Why did he leave without saying a word?"

"He didn't leave without saying a word, he told me about it," Ye Fei said.

"Did he tell you when he's coming back?"

Ye Fei shook his head, "No! His wife is pregnant, probably won't be back until after she's had the baby."

"That won't do!" Ye Yu jumped up from the sofa again, "We can't be without him now, the situation is critical!"

Ye Fei looked surprised and asked, "Why do you say that? Has something happened? Is it related to the earthquake last night?"

"Yeah!" Ye Yu nodded, "What did the news say?"

"The news says there was an earthquake out at sea to the east of the East Sea, but it won't have any impact on our coastal areas."

Ye Yu gave a cold laugh, thinking to himself that if it were not for his intervention, the whole of Y City would now be part of the East Sea.

"Did the news mention anything else related?"

Ye Fei shook his head.

"It seems the officials have locked down the information. There will definitely be something big happening before long!" Ye Yu muttered to himself.

"But I heard from Chen Hao last night that a mountain over a thousand meters high has emerged from the bottom of the sea!"

"Yes!" Ye Yu's expression became grave instantly, "What else did the kid say?"

"He said the mountain was originally sealed under the sea, and it was Tai Shan who broke that seal," Ye Fei answered, "Now you need to tell us, what's Tai Shan's purpose for doing this."

"Want to know?" Ye Yu raised an eyebrow, "If you really want to know, then join us!"

"Whether I join you or not is irrelevant; it won't affect our cooperation," Ye Fei said coldly, "If you won't tell, then please leave my home right now, and don't come to me or Chen Hao for anything in the future, or else you'll find yourself with one more enemy!"

Half of what Ye Fei said was also Chen Hao's idea.

Seeing Ye Fei suddenly become so tough, Ye Yu felt helpless and frustratedly clenched his teeth.

"Alright, I'll tell," Ye Yu capitulated after a pause, "Tai Shan might have done it to release the dragons that were sealed inside."

"Dragons?" Ye Fei was taken aback, immediately recalling the black dragon Chen Hao had killed two years prior.

"In the ancient records of the City of Yin and Time, there were many dragons in the East Sea. Then something happened, and the vast majority of dragons suddenly disappeared," Ye Yu explained.

"So, by that logic, those dragons were sealed along with that mountain under the East Sea?"
