Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1638 - 440: The Path Is Opened, Time for a Beating (5k) (Part 3)

At that time, once you enter the Devilic path, there's no turning back. No matter how good things are, you can only suppress the Devil Thought; it's basically impossible to eliminate it completely.The ideal situation is merely to carry it for life without it erupting.

So, at that time, if you encountered dozens of Great Devils, bringing numerous Devil flunkies with them, the strong fighting back were truly risking their lives, gambling their own paths.

But now, that's no longer the case. The Crown Prince of Dali issued a decree, and now even Ninth Tier Strong without sweet rain in their pockets dared to directly join the battle.

In normal fights, who's afraid of whom?

Yu Ziqing didn't bother with the events that followed, as he had absolute confidence in these people.

No one would be inattentive or hold back when seizing top-level rare materials.

Jia Shisi used the suitable opportunity to steal lives; just now was a rare chance.

He came representing Dadui, so he had to save some face.

Old Yang had fewer scruples; stationed in Almsgiving Town, whenever a Great Demon appeared, reaching out a claw, Old Yang would decisively act, forcibly suppressing it.

Upon receiving the information, Jia Shisi went carrying the tablet of the Yang-destroying Devil, heading straight south towards Jinlan Mountain.

The Yang-destroying Devil didn't care; these Devils were too stupid, like bugs to be crushed, way different from watching executions in small temples. Whether he observed or not seemed irrelevant to him.

After all, the Great Demons were nearly all dead; Jiu Nian was dead too.

When Jia Shisi arrived outside Han Dong's small courtyard with the tablet of the Yang-destroying Devil, he saw Yu Ziqing in the courtyard waving his hand, and the tablet flew over beside him.

"Can you help me see what's going on here?"

"Hm..." the Yang-destroying Devil murmured suspiciously.

"How is it?"

"I can't say for sure. Check it out yourself. It's a good chance for you to feel what I've realized."

Yu Ziqing held the tablet covered with a red cloth and, upon contact, immediately sensed a power enveloping him.

In an instant, everything around seemed to lose color, turning into black, white, and gray.

All tangible things began to lose their contours, leaving behind only halos of light.

Han Dong's Life Light was extremely strong; the only place on the female Ba that had Life Light was in her abdomen.

In the exchange of light and shadow, Yu Ziqing seemed to see, in this black, white, and gray world, a path behind him, hidden and flickering with silence, pallor, and void.

The female Ba's radiance hovered between life and death, yet the Life Light in her abdomen shone from death to the living world.

Looking at this abstract picture of radiance, Yu Ziqing realized his guess was correct.

It was the Yang-destroying Devil, cutting through thorns and sacrificing a Jiu Nian that finally opened up a path, transforming the impossible into a slight possibility.

"It's truly marvelous..." The Yang-destroying Devil's voice carried a trace of devout admiration.

"Yes, the beauty of life..." Yu Ziqing sighed, in the endless black, white, and gray, the outpouring of Life Light, oh how dazzling it was.

"I mean, I never thought I could glimpse death in such a way. I had never considered it."

"..."

Yu Ziqing sighed inwardly, I knew this guy wouldn't think like I do.

"What do you think? Can the child be born? There's no issue, right?"

"What issue could there be? Why shouldn't she be able to give birth to a living child?"

Yu Ziqing relaxed; if the Yang-destroying Devil said so, there should be no problem.

He could see Han Dong was worried, or rather, the female Ba knew it was not normal from the start, yet she still wanted it.

If possible, Yu Ziqing also wanted things to develop smoothly.

"But she still can't give birth now."

"You ask me? I don't understand childbirth. Seems fine to me, and it should be normal in your eyes."

The surrounding light and shadow dispersed, Yu Ziqing's perspective slowly returned to normal, and the world regained its color.

Yu Ziqing put the Yang-destroying Devil aside and continued sensing for a moment.

When he noticed the female Ba, out of nervousness, forming several handprints at the bedside, and sensed the fetus in her womb in detail, suddenly he went silent.

"Ziyu, how is it? Can she really give birth?" Han Dong was extremely anxious.

"The child is fine. If I didn't judge wrong, it should be..." Yu Ziqing held back a long time, then blurted out three words: "It's a difficult birth."

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

Yu Ziqing's expression was somewhat conflicted.

"Sister-in-law's body is too strong, her physique unique, while the fetus is too weak, so she can't give birth naturally and must undergo a cesarean."

With that, Yu Ziqing turned to Han Dong.

"Brother Dong, the next part is up to you. Besides you, probably no one else could perform a cesarean on sister-in-law without injuring the fetus..."

"Really? It can work?" The female Ba was overjoyed. She heard the implication in Yu Ziqing's words—the child is fine, the birth is possible.

As for cutting open her belly, for her, it's at most a surface injury.

She was merely uncertain if she could give birth.

"Han Dong, why are you still standing there?" the female Ba scolded sharply. Han Dong snapped back to reality, quickly focusing, regulating his breath to stabilize his own power.

"Cut along here, first sever the skin; sister-in-law, you control your strength and don't make a mess." Yu Ziqing instructed from the side.

Han Dong extended a hand, forming a sword with his fingers. At the fingertip, an inch or so condensed to the extreme, turned into a substantial Sword Qi appearing.

His hand was steady, strictly according to Yu Ziqing's guidance, slicing gently along the female Ba's skin.

"Next, be careful, bit by bit, manage your power well. Sister-in-law, don't resist, stay calm."

Fearing injuring the frail little one, they could only cautiously peel layer by layer, inch by inch, until slicing the final layer, feeling rich vitality burst forth suddenly.

Yu Ziqing looked solemn, quick-eyed and deft, immediately extracting the fetus from the abdomen, cutting the umbilical cord.

Even after coming out, the little brat didn't cry, nor took the first breath of this world.

Yu Ziqing lifted the kid up, gathered his strength, and gave the baby a slap on the buttocks.

The child opened his mouth, inhaled the first breath of this world, and started crying loudly.

Yu Ziqing grinned and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, born on Jinlan Mountain, how could you not expect a spanking."
