"What's wrong with the baby?" Chen Hao became more anxious.

At this moment, the black lion beast leader, who was entangled with Ye Fei, let out a lion's roar. Hearing this roar, Ye Yuqiao's pain suddenly intensified.

"I guess it was frightened by the roar of the lion!" Ye Yuqiao said in agony, "I read in a book that around six months, the baby's hearing will improve and they can hear external sounds."

Suddenly, Hua Shan appeared beside Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao.

"What's wrong with the Nether King?" Hua Shan asked.

Chen Hao shook his head: "Not sure, probably the fetus was scared. Hua Shan, I'll take her back first, and leave this place to you."

Hua Shan nodded.

Then, a purple gate leading to Netherworld appeared in the air in front of the three, and Chen Hao carried Ye Yuqiao through it.

It went dark in front of their eyes!

In the blink of an eye, they landed inside the Yang King's Mansion in the Netherworld, and Chen Hao immediately carried Ye Yuqiao back to the room.

Just as Chen Hao gently placed Ye Yuqiao on the bed, she couldn't help but let out another painful cry. She could feel the two children tossing restlessly inside her belly.

Since the children of her and Chen Hao were not ordinary children, every movement created a clash of burning heat and extreme cold Spiritual Power within her belly.

Then, it seemed like the two babies started quarreling, stirring restlessly in her belly, making her extremely uncomfortable and causing her to let out several pained groans.

"Chen Hao, the two babies seem to be fighting!" Ye Yuqiao gasped and spoke hoarsely.

It was already autumn, and the night in Netherworld City was a bit chilly. However, cold sweat was already drenching Ye Yuqiao's pale cheeks.

"I'll go find a doctor right away!" Chen Hao said.

He was just about to get up when Ye Yuqiao grabbed his hand.

"No need!"

Ye Yuqiao painfully looked at Chen Hao and said: "I understand my condition, it's not a serious issue, it's just the two babies got scared and started acting up. I don't need a doctor, I just need you to stay by my side."

Chen Hao frowned deeply and nodded.

He placed his hand on Ye Yuqiao's belly and said sternly, "You two little troublemakers, daring to make such a fuss before you're even born, look how you're tormenting your mom, wait and see how dad deals with you later!"

Strangely, as soon as Chen Hao finished speaking, Ye Yuqiao instantly felt the two babies inside her calm down.

She widened her eyes, looking at Chen Hao in disbelief.

Seeing Ye Yuqiao stunned, Chen Hao anxiously asked, "Yuqiao, what's wrong?"

"They stopped fussing!" Ye Yuqiao said in surprise. At this moment, her expression was very odd, looking both delighted and annoyed.

"Ah!"

Chen Hao laughed unexpectedly: "Really? Are you really not in pain now?"

Ye Yuqiao first shook her head, then pouted and said grievously, "Why do they listen to you so much, only bullying me!"

She reached out and pinched Chen Hao's cheek hard, complaining: "Just like you, this annoying jerk."

"Ha ha!" Chen Hao was very happy. However, his joy was not because the babies listened to him, but because Ye Yuqiao was no longer in pain. Seeing Ye Yuqiao's agonized expression just now, his heart felt as if it was being cut by a knife.

"What's wrong?" Ye Yuqiao softly asked, already noticing the gloom on Chen Hao's face.

"Wife, it's really hard on you!" Chen Hao looked at Ye Yuqiao affectionately and said, "Seeing you in pain earlier, my heart was breaking. Knowing how painful pregnancy is now, I wish I had…"

Ye Yuqiao hurriedly covered Chen Hao's mouth, her eyes filled with a bewildering smile.

"You shouldn't speak nonsense, the babies are listening. Be careful, or they might not recognize you as their dad."

"How dare they!" Chen Hao suddenly got inexplicably angry, "I'll throw them into the trash bin."

Ye Yuqiao chuckled, murmuring, "Childish!"

"Two little burdens!" Chen Hao whispered to Ye Yuqiao's belly, "Be good to daddy in the future, or I'll throw you all into the trash bin!"

At that moment, Ye Yuqiao suddenly felt an inexplicable sorrow strike her heart.

She smiled joyfully, that was the emotion being conveyed by the baby in her belly. She raised her hand and playfully smacked Chen Hao's shoulder: "Oh, you've frightened them! Look how scared you've made them, they're already complaining to me!"

"Really?"

"Yes, really!" Ye Yuqiao's eyes were very certain, "Hurry and tell a story to comfort the children. And from now on, don't scare them like that anymore."

Chen Hao nodded skeptically, then laid down beside Ye Yuqiao and began to tell a story into her ear.

After a while, hearing that Ye Yuqiao's breathing had become very steady, Chen Hao knew she had fallen asleep.

He quietly got out of bed, left the room, and returned with a basin of hot water. After wringing out a towel soaked in the hot water, he returned extremely quietly to the bedside and gently wiped the sweat from Ye Yuqiao's face with the hot towel.

At that moment, he noticed that Ye Yuqiao's smooth, apple-like cheeks had become somewhat loose and rough, and two or three red pimples had appeared— all because of the pregnancy.

He felt guilty, grateful, and even more distressed in his heart.

Thinking of Ye Yuqiao handling the black lion beast and that glowing tree earlier, his complex emotions intensified. He knew that if it weren't for him, Ye Yuqiao, being the Nether King, would not have intervened in the affairs of the mortal world.

"To be able to marry such a wonderful wife like Yuqiao, I must have saved the world in my past life!" Chen Hao thought.

"Chen Hao!" Ye Yuqiao suddenly spoke in her sleep.

Hearing Ye Yuqiao utter his name even in her sleep, Chen Hao felt incredibly happy.

"Don't go anywhere, stay home with me!"

Ye Yuqiao's following words suddenly made Chen Hao's mood heavy. He held Ye Yuqiao's hand and silently said in his heart, "Wife, don't be scared, I will always be by your side, I won't go anywhere."

…

…

On the Gourd Fairy Island.

Shortly after Chen Hao took Ye Yuqiao away, the leader of the black lion beasts was killed by Ye Fei. The crisis on the Gourd Fairy Island was completely resolved.

However, Ye Fei and Hua Shan had to face a new problem— the two Purgatory Fire Pools Ye Yuqiao had left on the island.

In just a short amount of time, both fire pools had expanded. If this trend continued, it wouldn't take many days before the entire island would be engulfed by the Purgatory Fire.

What was more worrying was that by tomorrow, the Purgatory Fire Pool on Six Finger Mountain would engulf Hualian Town.

There were still six thousand people in the town.

Since the road around the mountain had been destroyed, they had to think of other ways to evacuate the town's residents.

"If it doesn't work, go to the Netherworld to find Chen Hao and his wife."

Hua Shan said to Ye Fei, "Saving people is urgent!"

"Didn't you see his wife's condition just now?" Ye Fei was very upset.
