Chapter 21: Are You All Having Babies at the Same Time?
As the cherished little darling of Emperor Feng Xiu, Bai Yue immediately came to Feng Yun’s side, diverting her attention.
Bai Yue looked at Feng Yun expectantly. "Auntie, I’ve already reached the sixth rank and obtained a super artifact, the Eternal Tower. May I leave the Demon Capital to gain some experience out there?"
At fifteen years old and already at the sixth rank—who else could boast such rapid progress in cultivation?
Seeing that Feng Yun’s attention was captured by Bai Yue, Feng Xiu, the Moon Demon God, and the Star Demon God all breathed a sigh of relief inwardly, silently praising Bai Yue.
Well done, Yue’er!
After a brief moment of contemplation, Feng Yun nodded slightly. "Of course you may. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Yue’er, you truly have the ability to protect yourself now."
Then Feng Yun turned to Feng Xiu. "Feng Xiu, Yue’er not only trains diligently but also studies theory very hard. Her theoretical foundation is solid."
"I think you can let Yue’er participate in governmental affairs. You can first grant her a minor position so she can start working."
"Once she becomes familiar with the administration, she can replace you to inspect the various provinces, gaining an in-depth understanding of our people."
Feng Xiu nodded slightly and promptly replied, "Sister, your words are wise."
Bai Yue was extremely diligent—very hardworking indeed.
Though only fifteen and somewhat young, her strength and capabilities qualified her to partake in governmental affairs.
Raising her hand timidly, Bai Yue said, "Wait, I haven’t said a single word yet?"
Are you already scheduling my future?
She wanted to go out and have some fun, not to work alongside her father!
Feng Yun smiled gently and asked, "What’s wrong, Yue’er? Do you have any objections?"
Looking at her aunt’s kindly expression, for some reason Bai Yue felt a trace of sternness and shrank back slightly.
Suddenly, Bai Yue seemed to understand why her father and two uncles feared her aunt so much.
Auntie is too strict!
She immediately waved her hands, shaking her head frantically. "No objections, absolutely none! I love studying, I love working!"
Feng Yun patted Bai Yue’s head softly. "Good. Study hard, Yue’er. I believe in you."
Feeling the warmth radiating from her aunt’s palm, Bai Yue nuzzled it and quickly pushed away the little mood she had just felt.
Auntie praised me!
Watching Bai Yue so easily swayed, Feng Xiu silently lit a candle for his daughter in his heart.
And he had no intention of reminding her.
Having someone to share the workload made him more than happy.
…
Years passed.
This year, Abao and Mendi turned three, and good news came from the Moon Demon Palace.
After more than twenty years, the Moon Demon God finally had another daughter!
This daughter was born to one of the Moon Demon God’s concubines and would normally have attracted no attention. But to strengthen ties with the Divine Ancestor, the Moon Demon God showed some concern and personally brought the child to see Feng Yun.
Soon after, at the Demon God Hall.
Looking at the Moon Demon God, Feng Yun rubbed her forehead. "You three brothers all seem to be having children at the same time?"
"Probably just a coincidence," Agales, the Moon Demon God, cleared his throat and replied.
"Xiao Lei, of course, I can give her a name."
Feng Yun pondered. "By the way, this child is your only daughter in over twenty years, right?"
Agales lowered his head to look at the daughter in his arms.
Upon closer inspection, this daughter was exquisitely beautiful, delicate and adorable.
It stirred a hint of paternal affection in Agales, who had not cared much for her before.
"Yes, sister, I would like you to name my daughter."
"She’s a lovely child; call her Moonlit Night."
At the end, Feng Yun added, "Take good care of her."
"Thank you for the name, sister. She is my daughter, and I will definitely treat her well," Agales said with a faint smile.
Feng Yun nodded slightly, then asked a critical question. "By the way, Agales, Feng Xiu and Vashak have completed their cultivation tasks. How about you?"
Agales: …
At that moment, Agales suddenly wanted to run away.
Then a trace of pride flashed across his handsome face. "Surely nothing escapes your eyes, sister. Naturally, I have completed mine, having cultivated to the ninth rank, eighth level."
At 800,000 internal spiritual power, he was the first among the Moon Demon Gods of his generation!
Feng Yun nodded slightly and then inquired further, "Not bad. How about your comprehension of the law of darkness?"
"I have reached the third level," Agales answered.
Feng Yun shook her head gently. "A bit slow. Feng Xiu has already reached the fourth level."
"But—"
Agales wanted to say he had achieved the goal set by the ancestor.
However, upon seeing Feng Yun’s stern gaze, he dared not continue.
"Come, starting today, you must come to the Imperial Trial Grounds every afternoon. I will personally instruct you," Feng Yun said calmly.
"Yes!" Agales could only respond.
Opportunities to receive personal instruction from Feng Yun were rare; he should have been secretly delighted.
Yet the ancestor’s attitude toward the three brothers was entirely different from the attitude toward the younger generation.
Though usually strict, the ancestor was surprisingly gentle when dealing with little ones like Bai Yue.
When teaching the younger generation, Feng Yun was very patient and not harsh.
But with the three brothers, she was extremely severe, scolding them for the slightest mistake.
Feng Yun added, "Also, I’ll set you a small goal: within thirty years, break through to one million internal spiritual power. Do you have the confidence?"
"Yes!" Agales had no choice but to answer.
He felt like crying without tears.
If reaching one million internal spiritual power were so easy, Feng Xiu would not have spent twenty years achieving it.
After instructing Agales, Feng Yun resumed her usual work, penning a textbook titled "The Three-Year Rule, Five-Year Insights."
She made Feng Xiu, the Moon Demon God, and the Star Demon God reflect deeply, occasionally testing them.
If they failed to grasp the lessons, they practiced longer; if they forgot key points, they were scolded.
Small exams every three years, major exams every five years.
Thanks to this harsh education, the three brothers’ cultivation soared rapidly.
Thus, Feng Yun wrote an article—"On the Benefits of Suppressive Education for Cultivation."
Feng Xiu and Vashak: Agales, I thank you! I thank your entire family!
Three years later, Leng Xiao was born.
With that, their demon clan’s F5 was finally assembled!
This year, Abao and Mendi both turned six, approaching the time of awakening.
Like the direct line of the Star Demon Clan and the defiant Demon Dragon Emperor Clan, they would awaken at six years old and rely on their own efforts to cultivate step by step, eventually reaching the ninth rank.
Moreover, just as in the original timeline, Abao and Mendi became good brothers.
