Fantasy: Reborn tiger demon, more children and more blessings will make you stronger

Home!Eastern Emperor City, this ancient capital exuded a solemn and mysterious aura.

The city walls, built from massive bluestones, towered into the clouds.

Weathered by the passage of time, the stone surfaces bore mottled traces.

The city gates were grand and magnificent, with vermilion doors inlaid with golden rivets, glistening under the sunlight.

The heavy gates slowly opened, as if welcoming a long-lost hero.

Stepping into the city, the streets were wide and clean, the bluestone pavement polished smooth as a mirror by the footsteps of pedestrians.

Buildings on both sides of the street were arranged in a staggered fashion, with upturned eaves, intricate brackets, carved beams, and painted pillars, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient architecture.

Shops lined the streets, their banners and signs fluttering in the wind, and the sounds of hawkers rose and fell, creating a lively atmosphere.

It was no different from a human city.

Looking up, the palaces within the city were even more majestic, their magnificent golden roofs shimmering dazzlingly under the sun, like a fairyland on earth.

Surrounding the palaces were pavilions, terraces, rockeries, and ponds, with lush trees providing shade and fragrant flowers blooming everywhere, creating a breathtaking sight.

After entering Eastern Emperor City, Hu Xiao did not immediately go to the mansion bestowed by His Majesty the Demon Emperor.

Its location was excellent, situated in a bustling part of the capital yet offering tranquility amidst the activity.

The mansion’s gate was exceptionally grand, with imposing stone lions on either side.

Xiong Er, who was responsible for guarding the gate, was overjoyed to see Hu Xiao return.

“Great King, you’ve returned!”

“Why are you guarding the gate here?” Hu Xiao asked, puzzled.

“Heh heh.” Xiong Er chuckled.

“It’s an unfamiliar place, and I don’t trust anyone else with it.”

Hu Xiao immediately laughed upon hearing this.

“Alright, go rest yourself. Now that I’m back, this matter can be handed over to others!”

“Yes!” Xiong Er laughed loudly.

Xiong Er then wanted to notify Luo Shuiyan and the others.

But Hu Xiao refused.

He merely asked where Luo Shuiyan and the others were at the moment, then walked into the mansion.

Inside, a winding bluestone path led deep into the estate.

Exotic flowers and plants of various colors lined both sides of the path, emitting a fragrant aroma.

In the garden, grotesque rockeries stood ruggedly, and a stream gurgled, with an exquisite pavilion erected in the center of the water.

In the pond, lotuses bloomed and brocade carp frolicked, adding boundless vitality to the entire garden.

At this moment, Hu Xiao saw his wives, Luo Shuiyan, Qingxue, and Bai Yun.

Luo Shuiyan was dressed in a magnificent purple long dress, with exquisite floral patterns embroidered on its hem, and a golden belt around her waist, further accentuating her graceful figure.

Her hair was styled in a high bun, adorned with a dazzling golden hairpin, and her face was delicate.

When she sensed Hu Xiao’s aura, she suddenly turned to look, her eyes filled with tenderness and joy, and she softly said, “Great King, it’s truly wonderful that you’ve returned. We’ve been longing for you every day.”

Qingxue wore a pink silk dress, its sleeves fluttering, as delicate and charming as peach blossoms blooming in spring.

Her hair was styled into two cute buns, adorned with pearl hair ornaments, her smile sweet, and her eyes full of anticipation, as she playfully complained, “Great King, I’ve been constantly worried about you during your absence.”

Bai Yun, on the other hand, was dressed in a light blue garment, simple and fresh, her sleeves fluttering in the wind, like a fairy descending to the mortal world.

“Great King, you’ve finally returned.”

Seeing Hu Xiao return from outside, all of them were beaming with joy.

Hu Ruyan and Hu Jianxin were also incredibly excited, running over with hops and skips. Hu Ruyan, wearing a pink little dress and two pigtails, said, “Daddy, you’re finally back! Quickly tell us stories about the outside.”

Hu Jianxin, with an innocent expression, said, “Daddy, I miss you so much, hug me.”

Hu Shuangjue and Hu Wukong also ran to Hu Xiao. Hu Shuangjue, wearing a green long gown, spoke like a little adult, “Dad, were there any interesting things?”

Hu Wukong tugged at Hu Xiao’s clothes and said, “Dad, I want to hear stories too.”

They chattered incessantly.

Hu Xiao smiled and hugged Hu Jianxin, gently rubbing her little face with his stubble, which made Hu Jianxin giggle.

He then patted Hu Shuangjue’s head and said, “Children, don’t worry, Daddy will tell you slowly.”

The family sat together, and Hu Xiao vividly recounted his experiences outside. The children listened intently, while the wives smiled and listened by their side.

They knew that Hu Xiao made it sound easy, but in reality, it was fraught with danger.

“Oh, my belly!”

Just then, Qingxue felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

“Is she going into labor?” Hu Xiao said, both happy and anxious, “Quickly call the midwife.”

...

Inside the room, Qingxue lay on the bed, her forehead soaked with sweat. She bit her lip tightly, her face pale.

Painful moans occasionally emanated from her.

The midwives were busy at her side, encouraging Qingxue to push, saying, “Madam, just a little more effort, and the baby will be out.”

“Wah!”

Not long after, a child’s cry was heard.

Hu Xiao quickly entered the room, holding his newborn son, whom he named Hu Kaixuan.

After all, he had returned victorious this time.

In his mind, the system’s prompt sounded.

“Ding!”

“Detecting host, a new descendant has been born!”

“Congratulations to the host, you have received the following rewards: one Bloodline Pill, two drops of High-level Demon King Essence Blood, the Cloud Mist Formation, and the Burning Sun Formation.”

Hu Xiao ignored the system’s rewards.

He hadn’t seen his wife and children for a long time, and in the following days, he stayed with them constantly.

He took his wives and children to the grassland outside the city.

The children laughed and ran on the grass. Hu Ruyan and Hu Jianxin picked colorful wildflowers and wove them into beautiful garlands.

Hu Shuangjue and Hu Wukong chased butterflies, their laughter echoing in the air.

The wives sat under the shade of a tree nearby, watching the children play, their faces beaming with happy smiles.

Hu Xiao lay on the grass, feeling the warmth of the sun, content in his heart.

In the evening, the family went to the market.

The children curiously looked at all sorts of novelties, pestering Hu Xiao to buy them.

Hu Xiao smiled and granted their wishes.

At night, after the children had gone to sleep, Hu Xiao and his wives sat in the courtyard, gazing at the starry sky, softly exchanging their innermost thoughts, a warm atmosphere permeating the entire courtyard.

Three days later, a Demon Envoy found Hu Xiao.

“Demon King Hu Xiao, the Crown Prince will ascend the throne in seven days. This is where you will observe the enthronement ceremony!”

“Remember not to make a mistake!”

Saying this, he handed Hu Xiao a token!

“Thank you, Sir Demon Envoy!”

Hu Xiao smiled and took it.

During his outings these past few days, he had occasionally heard people mention this matter.

He didn’t expect the Crown Prince to have waited so long.

At this moment, the imperial palace was adorned with lanterns and streamers, and a golden carpet stretched from the palace gate all the way to the main hall.

Tall stone pillars stood on both sides of the path, carved with mysterious runes and exquisite patterns.

Banners fluttered, making a rustling sound as the breeze swept through.

The sky was as blue as a gem, without a single cloud, and the sunlight poured down, enveloping the entire imperial palace in a golden glow.

Hu Xiao looked in the direction of the imperial palace.

He had a premonition that once the enthronement ceremony concluded, the campaign against the Demon Race would likely begin!
