Are You Carrying This Golden Dragon Egg or the Silver One?

This story has been on hiatus for a long time. When I got to the next volume and looked back at the earlier chapters, I realized there were far too many glaring flaws, and I can hardly keep the later volumes going. My writing isn't good enough, and so much of what I wrote strayed too far from what I originally had in mind. I also didn't prepare enough before starting this story, and I'm unhappy with how to continue it. After discussing it with my editor, I've decided to remove the paywall. Readers who have already subscribed will receive a refund. I'm truly sorry for affecting your reading experience. But I can't bear to leave the characters I've written without an ending. I'll revise this story bit by bit and fill in this hole, doing my best to give them a good conclusion. I'm sorry to everyone who's already read part of it. *Bows.*

"Kind young man, are you carrying this golden dragon egg, or this silver dragon egg..."

"What the hell?!" Yu Xi touched his belly, completely confused. "Can someone tell me how I got pregnant with a dragon egg?"

Yu Xi was a rare and esteemed dragon from the Celestial Realm, yet he failed his tribulation and was reborn in the Lower Realm as a beautiful, useless little fool from a sect.

Not only that, he had somehow become pregnant with a dragon egg!

The whole sect was curious about who the other father was.

Yu Xi: "I'd like to know, too."

Eventually, tired of being asked, he decided to find the dragon egg a father who wasn't someone to mess with. He glanced around, then suddenly spotted a familiar face.

Was Yan Chenli, his sworn enemy of thousands of years in the Celestial Realm, down here too?

A sudden idea struck him. Pointing at the man who had just returned to the sect, he blurted out, "It's his."

The best way to get back at your sworn enemy is to make him raise someone else's child.

Everyone looked up and immediately fell silent.

The entire cultivation world both respected and feared Yan Chenli. Rumor had it that after returning from the Demon Realm, where he had vanquished evil, his soul split in two. Sometimes he became a completely different person, a bloodthirsty madman who killed without batting an eye. Even when he wasn't having an episode, his moods were unpredictable, and he was impossible to approach.

Seeing Yu Xi dare to pin this on the living King of Hell, everyone shook their heads and sighed. The dragon egg hadn't even finished developing, and it was already doomed to be smashed to pieces.

They all hurried away, not wanting to get blood on themselves.

But the King of Hell merely glanced at his foolish yet beautiful young disciple. Instead of flying into a rage, he stepped closer and nodded. "Mm."

Everyone: "????????"

Was this right?

Not only did his sworn enemy happily accept it, he even wanted to become his cultivation partner!

With great trepidation, Yu Xi pulled out a book called A Dragon Egg Care Guide and shoved it into Yan Chenli's hands, telling him to follow its instructions and look after him and the egg. Yan Chenli did everything the book said. Yu Xi took advantage, demanding to be fed at mealtimes and carried whenever he walked. He even threw his weight around in the sect in Yan Chenli's name.

Later, as his belly gradually grew, Yan Chenli pulled the well-fed, fair-skinned boy into his arms and turned to a page in the guide. "It says that once the pregnancy is stable, sex isn't prohibited. Just follow nature's course."

"..." Do I still have to get fucked while pregnant? (QAQ)

*

Seventeen years ago, Yan Chenli killed with his own hands the disciple he'd raised since childhood, and nearly broke down. Then he saw the young man, who was on the verge of becoming his inner demon, standing alive before him once more, claiming to be carrying his child.

The cultivation world all said he was mad, but only now did his resolve truly waver.

"Why can't the child be mine?"

"If I kill everyone who could be the father, then the child will be mine."

"Mm. Kill them all."

Yan Chenli: I took responsibility for my own child, and jealousy tastes best when I'm jealous of myself. My rival is me. Chenli
