Lin Chen shook his head, smiled, and whispered, "Master Zhou, you are really overestimating me. I am not a prominent figure here. Let's not have a full moon banquet."

What a joke! There will be dozens of children born this year. If we have a full moon banquet for each one, how much money will it cost?

When he left the mountain, Luo Yunli gave him a lot of money, but the expenses for so many people were too high. Besides, he didn't have any source of income now, so he naturally had to be frugal.

Master Zhou didn't expect that he would be so low-key about such a big event. He secretly admired him. It's rare to see someone so young who can remain calm. Truly rare.

After sitting for a while, Master Zhou said he had something to attend to and took his leave.

Zhou Zhuqing did not leave with her father. She looked at Lin Chen, hesitated for a while, and then spoke, "If you and I cultivate our spiritual powers and have a child, can you give me one?"

"Cough cough cough!" Lin Chen sprayed all the tea in his mouth, choking and coughing.

He looked at Zhou Zhuqing in disbelief, "What did you say? Can you restrain yourself a little in broad daylight?"

"It's not what you said. If you and I cultivate our spiritual powers, I can definitely break through the current calm and reach the peak of the Foundation Building stage. Our child will also have extraordinary spiritual roots and great blessings," Zhou Zhuqing said with righteousness.

Looking at her serious expression, Lin Chen didn't know what to say for a moment.

According to reason, he should be the one feeling shy about this kind of thing.

But faced with Zhou Zhuqing, who was so open and straightforward, he felt a little shy.

"Miss Zhou, even if you think this way, can you be a little more subtle? I can't handle it like this. Although I have many women, I still consider myself chaste," Lin Chen smiled at Zhou Zhuqing.

Zhou Zhuqing was someone who always followed through with her words, even when it came to cultivating spiritual powers. She would not be shy or back down. "Just say it, are you willing or not?"

"Willing." Lin Chen immediately nodded, put down his tea, and walked towards Zhou Zhuqing as if he was going to the guillotine.

Zhou Zhuqing was startled when she saw him approaching and instinctively took a step back, frowning at him. "What are you doing?"

"Didn't you want to cultivate our spiritual powers?" Lin Chen looked confused.

Zhou Zhuqing gritted her teeth and gave Lin Chen a hard slap before turning and leaving.

This...

Lin Chen felt a burning pain on his face and even more aggrieved in his heart. "But you said it, didn't you?"

"Master, something bad has happened! Zhou Yun'er has started!" Zhou Lianxiang rushed in, panting heavily.

Zhou Yun'er's child is the only one with extraordinary spiritual roots so far.

Lin Chen naturally attached great importance to it, so he remembered the due date of this child very clearly. "Why is she giving birth early? It's only been seven months, hasn't it?"

"She said she accidentally fell, and the midwife has already gone in, but she wants to see you." Zhou Lianxiang was quite frightened by him, and her voice started to tremble.

Lin Chen immediately ran towards Zhou Yun'er's courtyard.

"Yuner, I'm here!" Lin Chen called out Zhou Yun'er's name as he rushed into the delivery room.

The midwife hurriedly stopped him, "The delivery room is bloody and ominous. Men cannot enter!"

"What's ominous? There's nothing ominous. My child will definitely be auspicious and prosperous!" Lin Chen pushed aside the midwife and rushed in.

Zhou Yun'er's face was pale, and her hands were waving aimlessly in the air.

Lin Chen quickly stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Yun'er's hand. "Don't be afraid. Medicine Master Liang will be here soon. You and the child will be fine. Don't be afraid. I'm here with you. Listen to the midwife and do as she says."

"Master, it's my fault. I accidentally fell and caused the child to be born prematurely." Zhou Yun'er's face was filled with guilt as she tightly held Lin Chen's hand. "Master, I beg you, if the child can be safely born, let me go. Please let me go!"

It seems that she still hasn't given up on Lu Qiu.

However, Lu Qiu practices evil techniques, which is not a good ending for her.

At this moment, Lin Chen naturally wouldn't refuse.

"This is something I promised you a long time ago, and I won't regret it. Don't worry, as long as the child is born safely, I will definitely not force you to stay! You have to hang in there, you know?" Lin Chen encouraged her repeatedly.

Zhou Yun'er vigorously shook her head, tears streaming down her face as she choked, "Master, it hurts, I'm in pain!"

"I know, you've suffered. You have to hang in there, don't lose hope. The child is relying on you." Lin Chen squeezed her hand. "So, how is it? Tell me, what's the situation now?"

The midwife looked at Lin Chen's anxious expression and immediately spoke, "The situation is a bit complicated now. The baby is in the wrong position, so... it can't be delivered. If we can find a yellow cow, we might be able to turn the baby's position around and possibly deliver it."

"A yellow cow? What does that mean?" Lin Chen didn't have much understanding of childbirth matters.

At this moment, Medicine Master Liang, who was outside the door, spoke up, "It means placing the pregnant woman's belly on the back of a cow, then prodding the cow to make it move and turn the baby's position around."

This...

Lin Chen gritted his teeth. "Can the pregnant woman survive?"

"We can only guarantee the baby's safety. As for the pregnant woman, it depends on fate," the midwife honestly replied.

Hearing this, Zhou Yun'er relaxed visibly as she held onto Lin Chen's hand, filled with despair.

But Lin Chen firmly held her hand and said through gritted teeth, "No, I want both mother and child to be safe. Medicine Master Liang, come in quickly and think of a solution!"

"I'm a man!" Medicine Master Liang was somewhat surprised.

"You're a pharmacist, a healer. It doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. Come in quickly!" Lin Chen rolled his eyes.

It's already at this point, and he's still talking about these things!

Actually, Medicine Master Liang naturally didn't care about these things. He was afraid that Lin Chen would care, but he didn't expect Lin Chen to be so open-minded.

Without any hesitation, he entered as soon as the door opened, only to be hit by the smell of blood.

Approaching, he took out silver needles and began acupuncture.

Soon, the bleeding under Zhou Yun'er's body lessened, and the fetus started to move in her belly.

"Ah! It hurts so much, I'm going to die, Master, I'm going to die! I don't want to die!" Zhou Yun'er screamed in agony.

But Lin Chen took a cloth from the side and stuffed it into her mouth. "Bite down, use the strength you use to scream to give birth!"

Zhou Yun'er stared with wide eyes, biting down hard on the cloth, her eyes filled with fury.

Seeing her fierce appearance, Lin Chen became even more anxious.

Frowning, he looked at the midwife. "How is it? What's the situation now?"

"The baby has turned around, now it's time to push with all your strength!" The midwife looked at Zhou Yun'er with some concern. "Madam, push!"

Zhou Yun'er was weak and powerless, shaking her head weakly. "I can't hold on anymore, I can't."

"If you want to leave here, you must safely deliver the baby. Otherwise, I will cling to you day and night, making you continue to give birth for me." Lin Chen whispered in her ear, resorting to threats.

There have already been too many comforting words, and it's clear that they're not effective, so he can only try a different approach and see if threats work.
