Doupo: Life Simulator System

Chapter 486: Xiao Yue

Hua She Er, captain of the Medusa Snake Guard, stood off to the side and watched as Medusa spoke softly, a slight twitch appearing at the corner of her mouth.

Though she was a loyal follower of Her Majesty, she found the Queen's current words somewhat exaggerated. The baby in front of her was even stronger than herself. If the little one were to fly, in the case of a collision, it would be the object that would be damaged, not the little one, right?

Of course, Hua She Er understood the Queen's deep love for her daughter, so she felt compelled to share the Queen's concern.

"Your Majesty, how about letting me hold the princess and fly her around for a while? Princess Yue'er should calm down then."

"No need. She will calm down after a while. Children don't have that much energy." A touch of tenderness appeared in Medusa's slender eyes, clearly reluctant to let go of her daughter.

At that moment, two figures suddenly entered the grand hall.

Medusa did not seem bothered by the appearance of the two figures, who turned out to be Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin. She just said quietly, "You two are here."

"Hmm. Things have calmed down at the front, and there are no more traces of the Hall of Souls' influence in the North-Western Region," Xiao Yi Xian replied with a gentle smile on her face.

Qing Lin, on the other hand, paid no attention to their conversation and stepped forward with an affectionate smile, looking at the baby in Medusa's arms, "Yue'er, your aunties have missed you so much! Look! We brought you a present..."

After Medusa reluctantly let go of the baby in her arms, both girls began to play with the little one. Soon, her joyful laughter filled the hall, creating a cheerful atmosphere.

Hua She Er walked quietly out of the room, sensing that her presence was no longer needed.

Medusa watched the scene with a slight smile on her lips. After a moment, she looked at Xiao Yi Xian, who was closest to her, and said in a low voice, "Do you know when he'll be back?"

"He should be back soon. I've already informed the Heavenly Court about an 'important situation' and he will understand. You know him, once he knows, he will surely return," Xiao Yi Xian replied with great confidence.

"Yes, yes, Young Master is very caring. He'll probably rush over as soon as he finds out." Qing Lin chuckled as she held Yue'er. The little one seemed to be fascinated with playing with her emerald green hair.

Yue'er's little hands grabbed her braids and tossed them around as she giggled. Although her playful tugging might seem harmless, if someone weaker than Qing Lin were in her place, the sheer force of the tugging would have ripped their hair out.

After a while, Qing Lin felt that Yue'er had grown tired of playing, so she handed the mischievous little girl back to Medusa. When she touched her hair, she noticed that her pigtails had become completely tangled and knotted, with strands of hair tangled together.

She turned to look at the little mischievous girl who was giggling in Medusa's arms with a pout on her face, and then she smiled fondly. She didn't seem to care about fixing her hair right away.

Medusa stroked Yue'er gently, her thoughts consumed by the image of a young figure dressed in white. She bit her red lips lightly, her mesmerizing eyes revealing a hint of complexity.

When a Snake-People Queen truly fell in love, her devotion was unwavering. Even if her loved one passed away, her heart would die with him. This was the inheritance of the Medusa Bloodline.

Although her first meeting with Xiao Ming had been far from perfect, and their union was initially driven by various reasons, Medusa knew she would never be able to forget him.

Despite their long separation, Xiao Ming's face hadn't faded from her memory; it had become even more vivid, and her feelings for him had deepened with time.

Calming her emotions, Medusa began to chat casually with the girls.

After a while, while they were deep in conversation, Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin suddenly stood up, their eyes sharp as they looked towards the center of the grand hall.

Medusa, whose current strength was inferior to both of them, felt a bit confused. She followed their gaze and saw a spatial rift suddenly appear.

And then, an extremely familiar figure appeared in front of them.

The alert expression on Medusa's and the others' faces faded, replaced by surprise.

"Xiao Ming, you're back!" they exclaimed.

How could they have expected him to return so soon after they had just sent the message?

After Xiao Ming left the spatial channel, he paused for a moment before smiling at the group.

"Hm, I'm back."

Along with Xiao Ming, Zi Yan, and Elder Huo also appeared at this time.

"Sister Yi Xian...! Pfft! What's with your hair, Sister Linlin...?" Zi Yan greeted the two girls who were standing closer to her and teased Qing Lin a little before she looked around. She spotted Medusa and ran towards her.

When she was halfway there, she noticed the child in Medusa's arms. She slowed down and came to a gentle stop beside her, leaning in to catch a glimpse of the child.

"Sister Medusa... What's the little one's name?"

"She's Xiao Yue," Medusa replied, her eyes filled with maternal affection.

"Aww, she's so adorable! Xiao Ming, let's have a daughter too! No, she's so cute, let's have two instead! Oh, and maybe a boy too— Ouch!"

With a pout, Zi Yan rubbed her head from the dope slap as Xiao Ming appeared behind her with a blackened forehead.

He knew Zi Yan well; it was always better to pull her back from her daydreams before they took a wild turn... a potentially dangerous one for his poor waist.

Then, his gaze fell on the child in Medusa's arms.

"Yue'er... can I hold her?"

Naturally, Medusa didn't refuse and carefully handed the child to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming looked at his daughter with a tender gaze. She had red hair like her mother, and pitch-black eyes like her father. Her delicate, adorable appearance exuded extreme cuteness even though she was only a few months old.

In the center of her forehead was a small seven-coloured snake pattern. Her round, black, sparkling eyes exuded a charm that made her irresistibly endearing. People would become slightly entranced, only to be jolted back to reality a moment later.

He knew this was the unique charm of the Medusa Bloodline.

As he looked at his child, the feeling of blood being thicker than water, which had been absent for so long, made Xiao Ming smile softly.

Yue'er, looking up at him with her big black eyes, seemed to be affected by his smile. She giggled and held out her tiny hand to him.

Seeing Xiao Ming's affection for their baby, Medusa couldn't help but smile.

At that moment, Zi Yan leaned against Xiao Ming's shoulder and exclaimed, "Give her to me, give her to me, I want to hold her!"

"Be careful," Medusa warned as she watched Zi Yan take Yue'er into her arms. Then she looked calmly at Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming didn't say anything, just stared at her slightly parted red lips, a warm feeling welling up inside him.

Taking a few steps forward, he gently wrapped his arms around her slender, snake-like waist.

"You've worked hard," he said gently, pulling her into his embrace despite her mild resistance.

Hearing his soft voice and sensing his familiar aura, Medusa's feeble resistance faded and she finally surrendered to his embrace, feeling the warmth and security she had missed for so long.

They slowly parted after a while. Xiao Ming glanced around the hall until his eyes were fixed on Xiao Yi Xian. She had yet to utter a word, but her eyes were already a testament to the longing in her heart.

He approached her and immediately took her in his arms. A small smile graced Xiao Yi Xian's pretty face as she closed her eyes and leaned against his chest.

"Young Master...!" Qing Lin didn't bother to wait for Xiao Ming to come to her; she rushed towards him with a flush of excitement on her cheeks. Xiao Ming greeted her warmly and held both beauties in his arms.

Medusa watched the scene in silence.

The Xiao Clan members who accompanied Xiao Ming had mixed feelings. Xiao Yu and the other female members of the clan were struggling to suppress their envy, while the male members of the clan were openly showing their admiration.

Worthy of being the most brilliant genius of their Xiao Clan! Four stunning women could only be attracted to someone like him.

No one felt that anything was wrong. After all, this was the way of this world. It was perfectly normal for a man to have more than one wife, and with strength, it wasn't unusual for a woman to have more than one husband either.

...

"This is my esteemed Master, Elder Huo. I began my apprenticeship under him when I was six years old. He is the person I hold in the highest regard."

Xiao Ming introduced his Master, Elder Huo, to Medusa after releasing his embrace with Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin.

Medusa bowed in respect when she learned that Elder Huo was Xiao Ming's Master

"Master, this is my wife, although we haven't had our wedding ceremony yet. We wanted you to witness it."

Elder Huo, upon hearing this, revealed a warm smile on his typically stern and old-fashioned face.

"Of course."
