I, Tianlaozhen Wangu, support the Empress from behind!

Chapter 143: What’s the trick? The Demon Refining Department comes to visit

The sun is rising.

The warm sunshine shines on the earth, bringing a touch of warmth.

But it couldn't dispel the coldness in Liu Xinxin's heart.

She is actually pregnant???

At first, she was ecstatic. She had been married for many years but had no children, and her mother-in-law had already started to complain.

But then, every time she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

Her husband was a jailer in the Demon Refining Prison. They only saw each other a few times throughout the year. It had been several months since they last met, and they had not slept together during that time.

She's actually pregnant?

How could this not make her feel cold in her heart?

Although she came from a merchant family.

But apart from her own husband, she has never looked for a lover outside and has always been a chaste woman. Why would she get pregnant for no reason?

"Ugh—" As she thought about it, she began to dry heave again.

He simply took a few guards and maids with him and headed towards Lingyuan Temple.

The only place she could think of where something might have happened was here.

In that rumor.

Anyone who enters the temple can become pregnant.

At first, she just thought of it as a thought, but she didn't expect such a disaster to happen.

She could even imagine how angry her husband would be when he came back and saw the child.

But when she felt the slight movement of the baby in her belly, she couldn't bear to take the abortion pill.

But she didn't dare tell anyone else, only her personal maid Xiaoqin knew.

The mountain road to Lingyuan Temple.

The road was not smooth, and as she sat in the carriage, Liu Xinxin felt more and more uncomfortable in her chest.

I always feel like vomiting.

Thinking of this, she opened the curtains on the carriage and looked out the window. Her eyes suddenly lit up, "Hey, is that Sister Du's carriage?"

"Uncle Ma, catch up with the carriage in front." Liu Xinxin ordered the coachman.

Although her husband's family doesn't have much money.

But her mother was a merchant of some size in Tianjing City, and the family was wealthy. She had servants, guards, and so on, and her mother had provided her with everything she needed.

"Master, there is a carriage coming towards us from behind. Should we hurry?" Master Li suddenly said.

"Carriage?" Du Xueer was secretly stunned. Who could it be?

Then she opened the curtain and saw the word "Liu" hanging on the carriage.

"Is it Xinxin?" Du Xueer's face lit up with joy.

A month ago, she was worried that the affairs of the Du Mansion would implicate this close friend, so she almost cut off all contact with her.

The other party took out her own dowry to help her raise money, but unfortunately, it was just a drop in the bucket.

But she always kept this kindness in mind.

"Master Li, please pull over. He's an acquaintance."

Hearing this, Master Li skillfully drove the carriage to the side of the road and stopped.

After a while.

The Liu family's carriage caught up from behind, and a maid helped a young woman down and walked straight to Chu He and his carriage.

Just as she was about to speak.

Chu He opened the door curtain and walked out, "Madam Liu, please come in!"

Although Liu Xinxin was confused.

But she only glanced at Chu He, then got into the carriage with the help of a maid.

Sure enough, there was a stunning woman with a slightly dark face sitting inside, looking at her with a smile on her face.

"Sister Du, Xinxin knew it, you would definitely find out it was me..."

The two girls started chatting.

"Sister Du, was that man Chu He?"

Liu Xinxin asked in a low voice.

"You're asking for a beating, even though you already know the answer!" Du Xueer's face flushed red as she made a gesture as if she was about to hit someone.

The two girls immediately started playing around.

"vomit--"

At this moment, Liu Xinxin suddenly started to dry heave.

"Sister, you are pregnant???" Du Xueer exclaimed, then smiled and said, "Hehe, sister, congratulations..."

Her best friend's long-cherished wish finally came true.

But she didn't expect it.

Liu Xinxin had a wry smile on her face, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

The joy on Du Xueer's face gradually faded, "Could it be a child?"

As the saying goes, women understand women best.

The expression on Liu Xinxin's face has already revealed most of the information.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xinxin first shook her head and then nodded.

Du Xueer: ???

This confused her.

She shook her head to understand, then nodded. What did you mean?

"Sister, I really don't know..." Liu Xinxin's voice became smaller and smaller.

This matter concerns her own reputation. If the woman in front of her was not her close friend, she would not dare to disclose it casually.

"This is what happened..." While Du Xueer was confused, Liu Xinxin slowly told her what happened.

"You mean, you just went to Lingyuan Temple once, and two months later, you felt that you were pregnant?" Du Xueer thought of the crying of the husband of the woman who had just died, and asked with a serious face.

Liu Xinxin nodded.

"Sister, this matter is very serious, I..." Then, Du Xueer also recounted the funeral that she had just encountered.

Hearing this, Liu Xinxin's face turned pale and looked increasingly uglier.

"However, you don't have to worry. Young Master Chu has made friends with people from the Demon Refining Bureau. They will investigate and everything will become clear when the time comes. It's just..." Du Xueer glanced at Liu Xinxin's belly.

Liu Xinxin smiled bitterly and shook her head.

In addition to maternal instinct, there was also a faint voice in her heart telling her to protect the baby in her belly.

"Ouch..."

At this moment, Liu Xinxin suddenly covered her stomach and cried out in pain. Du Xueer immediately noticed that her face was covered with huge beads of sweat like pearls.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly called Chu He in.

Chu He looked at the woman in front of him.

To be precise, it was the small spiritual energy concentration point in the woman's belly that fell into deep thought.

It felt like being in the belly of a woman who had just died.

But he didn't say anything, just shook his head at Du Xueer, and then gently urged a trace of true energy into Liu Xinxin's body to soothe her restless fetus.

"Miss Liu, you are fine. Don't be too impatient and get more rest..." Chu He gave a few instructions according to the Blue Star doctor's template.

Afterwards, Liu Xinxin said goodbye to Du Xueer, and the two girls agreed to meet again after arriving at Lingyuan Temple.

"Mr. Chu, what did that mean just now?" As soon as Liu Xinxin left, Du Xueer couldn't help but ask.

After all, it concerns her best friend.

"It feels just like the fetus in the belly of the deceased woman before. The essence in her body is being absorbed by the fetus in her belly."

"Based on her cultivation level of the early eighth rank, perhaps she can last until the fetus is five months old?!"

Chu He said uncertainly.

"Ah—" Du Xue'er was shocked and asked, "Then Xinxin can do it too?"

Chu He nodded and said affirmatively: "He will die!"

"Then what should we do?" Du Xueer was suddenly anxious.

"Don't worry, I just used my true energy to suppress that 'spiritual fetus'. Your friend is fine for now."

Chu He looked towards Lingyuan Temple with a cold look in his eyes, "We need to find out what these things are first. If we take them out hastily, it might endanger their lives!"

"Old Li, I have a favor to ask of you. Please go find the body of the woman who just died and see if the fetus inside her is missing."

"Okay, sir, wait for me for a moment." Master Li did not hesitate. He disappeared from the carriage in a flash.

When Du Xueer saw this scene, she was secretly surprised.

......

The main gate of Lingyuan Temple.

Dozens of strong men in the patrol uniforms of the Monster Refining Bureau stood at the door, led by a centurion.

If Chu He were here at this moment, he would definitely exclaim in surprise.

Isn’t this his Uncle Zhou?

"Master Baihu, do you want to force your way in?"

Seeing the temple gate locked, an inspector asked.

Zhou Baichuan shook his head and said, "No rush. According to the procedure, we will wait for another half an incense stick. We will use courtesy first and then force."

After half a stick of incense.

The gate was still locked. Zhou Baichuan looked at the inspectors on both sides and nodded at them.
