My fingertips tingled after the brush of his scales, as I opened my arms and embraced him, "I promise I won't use a bit of Spiritual Power. Yun Hao's situation is different from that small snake's. Yun Hao has already nurtured a snake body that can reincarnate. If it weren't for you stealing the snake eggs, he might have already reincarnated..."
"Su Wan, you've learned to lie? And not use a single drop of Spiritual Power?" Yu Longting menacingly coiled around my legs with his snake body.
I was completely helpless and kissed his dragon horn, "I'm really not lying to you, listen to me, let me go. Yun Hao doesn't have much time left. If I use a bit of Spiritual Power, you can do whatever you want with me."
The moment my kiss landed, Yu Longting's snake body trembled.
Listening to my words, the grip he had on me gradually loosened—aggrieved and helpless, yet somewhat adorably fierce, "Wife, you cannot get hurt in the slightest, otherwise, you'll really be in trouble."
"Alright, I absolutely won't get hurt. You go back on the bed first, take some more time to rest and recuperate."
"Mhm." Yu Longting slowly crawled back to the bed, maintaining a kind of special elegance and nobility even in his snake form.
After reaching the bed, he coiled up quietly.
I could tell he would never have compromised if he hadn't been truly reluctant.
My heart ached for him, so I went over to drop down the mosquito net.
Taking the egg, I left the dormitory.
I immediately cut open my finger, using the fresh blood to draw a talisman on the egg.
I also asked Xiao Li to go to the outside market and buy several hens to incubate the eggs.
I told Beichen that we had run out of silk thread for making the Reincarnation Garment, and I sent him to Granny Wu's to buy some.
I contacted Yu Rongling and Immortal Liu to also pick up silk thread.
We divided into three groups, just in case.
I stayed in the attic, using special silk thread to wrap the snake eggs, knitting a net.
About twenty minutes later, Xiao Li ran up to the attic, out of breath, "I don't know why... there wasn't a single live chicken in the entire market... some were bought, others were slaughtered."
"Cough cough cough... The Zhang Family... must have guessed... you were trying to help me reincarnate." Yun Hao's voice came from the wooden box.
He initially didn't know I was going to help him reincarnate.
But after some time to cool down and ponder, being such a clever person, how could he not have guessed?
Xiao Li just found out, "You're making another Reincarnation Garment!? You... doing such exhausting work twice in a row, and while pregnant, won't it cause problems?"
"Xiao Li... Miss, please... blow out my Life Lamp..." Yun Hao desperately pleaded with Xiao Li, his voice like the mournful cry of a dying beast, "Su Wan... making another Reincarnation Garment... will kill you... surely you don't want to watch Su Wan die..."
If the Life Lamp is blown out, Yun Hao will die!
Xiao Li froze, not following through.
She stared blankly at the wooden box emitting the voice.
"I won't die, don't worry." I patted the box, "Yun Hao, I'm a mother of a child, if it were really going to kill me, would I not consider my child?"
The box was silent for a long time.
Xiao Li nervously asked me, "Did he bite his tongue as a form of suicide?"
"I don't think so." I couldn't help but want to open the box and check.
He couldn't really be dead, could he?
"Su... Su Wan... are you incubating the eggs?" Yun Hao asked, trembling.
Hearing his voice again, I was certain that Yun Hao was fine.
I breathed a sigh of relief, clutching the egg wrapped in the net close to my chest, using my body's temperature and the formation on the net to incubate the egg, "I guessed the Zhang Family, intent on eradicating you, would probably deal with the chickens in town first, so I prepared the egg-incubating net in advance..."
"No wonder I could feel your body temperature... and your breath... you were holding my snake body... Do you... do you realize what your incubating eggs means?!" As Yun Hao was on the brink of death, originally breathing his last, his voice now boomed like a bell, as if agitated into a brief resurgence."
I touched my nose, feeling a bit awkward, "Uh... imprinting? I had no choice..."
