Chapter 773: The Crystallization of Deity and forbidden

"However, I didn't expect Master to Breakthrough to the Heavenly Emperor Realm so quickly."

Zhang Tianhao was somewhat surprised, thinking to himself.

After all, if Master broke through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm sooner, he could return to the Divine Realm earlier. By now, the time should be about right.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tianhao set off toward the boundary wall of the Forbidden Realm.

The Forbidden Realm had not been laid out with a grand array like the Divine Realm, otherwise Zhang Tianhao and the others wouldn't have been able to enter it back then.

Although there were no requirements to enter the Forbidden Realm, to leave, one's strength had to reach Level Twelve; otherwise, it would be impossible to tear open the boundary wall.

On the other side, Wu Yifan and the others had all received the news and were incredibly excited, but Wu Yifan's expression was solemn.

After all, a Restriction had already been left in his body by the Lord of Forbidden, and he didn't know if Great-Grandfather could break it.

But he had no choice now; if Great-Grandfather couldn't resolve the Restriction left by the Lord of Forbidden, then he would be at a dead end.

On another side, within the Ten Thousand Souls Valley.

"Finally, finally, the ancient jade of devouring taboo has finally been completely repaired."

Looking at the ancient jade of devouring taboo he had restored to its original state, Wu Zhene couldn't hide the excitement on his face. After all, this was the first goal he had set after coming to the Forbidden Realm.

But now Wu Zhene no longer had a use for the ancient jade of devouring taboo. Although it could significantly boost his Cultivate speed, he was already at the level fifteen Early Stage. While it could help, the benefit was limited.

Shaking his head, Wu Zhene stopped thinking about it. Since Great-Grandfather had already broken through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm, he would surely come to the Forbidden Realm to take them back before long. This Forbidden Dao was better left unpracticed.

The very next second, Wu Zhene seemed to sense something, and his expression changed abruptly: "What a profound feeling. What on earth happened? Why do I feel like something important has occurred?"

Wu Zhene was puzzled, unable to guess what had happened. But for some reason, his intuition told him that something had happened to Chu Xue.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhene didn't care about anything else. After leaving his Immortal Cave, he rushed toward the Final Return World.

Meanwhile, within the Final Return World, Chu Xue's pregnancy was visible. She was looking at her belly with a face full of happiness, but in the next second, a surge of pain came from her stomach.

"This is… I'm about to give birth!"

Chu Xue didn't expect her child to be born so soon. Because she had kept it hidden, no one in the entire Final Return World knew she was pregnant.

With Chu Xue's Seventeen-level Perfection cultivation, she could handle the delivery even by herself.

So in the next second, Chu Xue lay on the bed and began to take charge of delivering her own baby.

On the other side, after leaving the Ten Thousand Souls Valley, Wu Zhene rushed toward the Final Return World without stopping, arriving before it shortly after.

The guards of the Final Return World did not stop Wu Zhene after seeing who he was, allowing him to enter.

After returning to the Final Return World, Wu Zhene rushed toward Chu Xue's Grotto-heaven. Thanks to Chu Xue's great trust in him, the Restriction of her Grotto-heaven did not block him, allowing him to enter.

The moment he entered the Restriction, Wu Zhene sensed Chu Xue's Qi. He felt that she was currently in an extremely painful stage.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhene didn't hesitate and rushed toward Chu Xue's location.

Regardless of anything else, setting aside the matter of opposing factions, Chu Xue had given him immense help, and he had developed some feelings for her. Naturally, he wouldn't ignore her.

When he saw Chu Xue, he saw her holding a small infant in her arms, with several lines of Forbidden Power crawling across its face.

The moment he saw this, Wu Zhene froze. Although he didn't want to say it, his intuition told him that the child Chu Xue was holding was his.

Chu Xue clearly hadn't expected Wu Zhene to rush back. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, as she had hidden the pregnancy and given birth without asking for his opinion.

At this moment, Wu Zhene finally reacted. He swallowed and asked in disbelief, "Chu Xue, so, is this… my child?"

Since she had been discovered by Wu Zhene, Chu Xue didn't intend to keep it hidden any longer. She nodded and said, "Yes, this is your child. This is… our crystallization."

Hearing this, Wu Zhene's heart was incredibly conflicted. Previously, they only had a physical relationship, but now, they had a crystallization of their love.

Knowing they belonged to opposing factions, Wu Zhene didn't know what to do. He feared what Chu Xue would do once she learned of his origins, but the current situation forced him to plan his future actions.

He couldn't worry about that now. Wu Zhene walked carefully to Chu Xue and gently took the little fellow from her arms.

It was a boy. Upon seeing Wu Zhene, he didn't cry but instead reached out his hands to please him.

"So, what do you plan to do now?"

Chu Xue swallowed, speaking nervously like a criminal awaiting judgment.

Hearing this, Wu Zhene remained silent for a long while before finally looking up and saying, "What else can I do? Since he's my child, I will of course acknowledge him."

Hearing Wu Zhene's words, Chu Xue's heart finally settled. She looked at Wu Zhene with eyes full of tenderness and asked, "So, have you thought of a name for our child?"

"Let's call him Wu Shunan."

Wu Zhene spoke with a very complex expression. His biggest worry was whether Great-Grandfather would kill his son upon finding out. Since the Forbidden Realm and the Divine Realm were enemies, he didn't know what Great-Grandfather would do. Thus, he named his son Wu Shunan, hoping he would be safe and smooth.

If Great-Grandfather found out later, he would protect his son even if it meant his own death.

Hearing Wu Zhene's words, Chu Xue was startled but nodded in agreement. As long as it was a name chosen by her beloved, she would be satisfied.

However, this was also the first time Chu Xue learned Wu Zhene's surname, as Wu Zhene had only told her his name was Wu Zhene when they were together before.
