“Oh right, Shenshen, what about Rosebush Unit? When are you going back?” That was the most important thing. Military orders were as unchangeable as mountains. Mu Yunshen could only stay at home during his holiday and had to return to the Unit on time. By then, what was he going to do with the baby?

“Dad, Mom, I’m not going back. I’m retired,” Mu Yunshen looked at his parents and explained the truth.

Yun Yanshi and Mu Chifeng were stunned. After a while, Mu Chifeng said in a dry voice, “It’s good to retire. With you home, I’ll get a good helper. Besides, we won’t worry about you all day long.”

“Good, good. I’ve wanted you home a long time ago. You left home at fourteen. We had to worry about you all day long. It’s good you are back. Now, I can see you whenever I want to. Goodbye to the days when I missed you so much that I couldn’t find sleep.” Yun Yanshi was really happy.

Looking at his parents, Mu Yunshen could tell they were really happy, instead of pretending to be so just to comfort him, which was a big relief.

The fact that his parents didn’t feel disappointed made him feel better.

The thought that her son would stay here without having to return to the army and that there would be a new member to her family next month cheered Yun Yanshi up.

“Shenshen, I’ve heard that the most difficult and dangerous period of a male pregnancy is the last two months. I can’t imagine how you pass the first six months safely without knowing you are pregnant. There’s one more month to go. You have to be careful… No, I have to close the store first. I have to stay here with you or I’ll worry.” Yun Yanshi said, already making up her mind.

“I haven’t contacted a hospital yet. I don’t even know which doctor is better. I have to ask,” Mu Chifeng said.

“What hospital? Do you think an ordinary hospital can deal with Shenshen’s situation? Leave it to me, you don’t have to worry about it,” Yun Yanshi kicked Mu Chifeng, who wanted to help but was left directly out of the team. Mu Chifeng felt anxious but he was unable to get involved.

Mu Yunshen watched his parents discuss the baby’s birth quietly. His tensed nerves finally relaxed. The fact that his parents could understand him was the most powerful protection and support to him.

Swift and decisive, Yun Yanshi started to prepare for the birth.

In the last month of his pregnancy, Mu Yunshen finally knew how difficult it was. He vomited almost every day and couldn’t eat anything. He would even puke after taking a sip of water and he was losing weight nonstop.

Yun Yanshi saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart. She continued to make delicious food for her son every day. Mu Yunshen was tough, too. Although he knew he would vomit after eating, he insisted on eating. Otherwise, the child in his belly would be hungry. He learned that from his mom and had kept that in mind.

In the last month of the pregnancy, Mu Yunshen didn’t even have the strength to stand up and walk, nor had he leave his room. Sometimes, when the sun was out, his mom would help him to the yard to get some sunlight. From his room to the yard, that was the longest distance he had covered during this period. He was stuck in the bedroom, living room, and the yard. He was very weak and he had never thought he would be in such a state one day.

Yun Yanshi contacted a private hospital where she got a friend for Mu Yunshen with a high level of confidentiality. She trusted that friend.

After everything was done, Mu Yunshen had been pregnant for more than six months.

In the early stages of his pregnancy, as Mu Yunshen didn’t know about it, he didn’t pay attention to all the rules that were ought to be followed. As a result, the baby wasn’t well-nourished and his belly didn’t grow too big. However, in the last month, with Yun Yanshi’s care, Mu Yunshen’s belly bulged like a balloon, becoming twice as big as before with the baby’s nutrition replenished so that it grew bigger. However, Mu Yunshen might have to go through a more difficult time when giving birth.

Half a month before the due date, Yun Yanshi planned to take her son to check at her friend’s hospital to see if the child was in a good state. Mu Yunshen was very weak and he had to be supported to be able to walk, which was why he never left the house after he was back.

However, despite that, Yun Yanshi was still worried that there would be problems when he gave birth, so she wanted him to have a check to see if the baby was in the right position. However, before that, something happened to Mu Yunshen.

That day, Mu Yunshen felt very bad, like he couldn’t even breathe. The child in his belly was kicking hard due to lack of oxygen, but it wasn’t the due time yet so it was impossible for him to give birth. As he was worried, he took out his amulet.

It was a black square object that looked a bit like a black jade card, which was only a finger long and a thumb wide.

He had always carried this amulet with him.

According to his mother, when he was born, he had this thing in his hand.

At that time, after Mu Yunshen heard about it, he didn’t believe it and felt that his mother was lying. Later on, his father and his relatives said so, too, so he believed that it was true. His mother had always felt that it was his son’s protective amulet, so she asked him to put it around his neck ever since he was young. After entering the army, he couldn’t wear accessories yet he always kept it by his side.

Mu Yunshen felt very uncomfortable, so he held the jade tightly in his hand and silently prayed that his child would be born safely. If anything bad happened to the child, he definitely couldn’t forgive himself. This was all because he found out too late about the pregnancy, which caused the child to suffer so much.

Mu Yunshen wished he could bear all the suffering and pain for the child. He wished God could bless that his child could be born safely.

The moment Mu Yunshen fell into darkness, he felt the jade in his palm became scorching, but he still firmly grasped it.

No one saw that at this moment, when a complex and mysterious hexagram array appeared between his eyebrows. A wisp of light disappeared in the black jade card. Its heat gradually dropped and finally returned to normal.

Mu Yunshen, who was immersed in darkness, heard someone talking to him and the voice sounded like it came from the bottom of his heart.

“Congratulations on your awakening, Prince Logar, the Gate of Hell will be opened for you. Unfortunately, you just have the soul of a demon but the body of a human, which cannot make you cross the Gate. Your body must be strong enough to do that. Now that you have the Gate of Hell in your hand, you can enjoy everything in the demon world, including endless Hellpower. I am Ninitar, the guardian of the Gate. Let me be your most loyal servant.”

“My master, your body functions are declining. If this continues, your body will die in this life, as will your unborn child. Your soul will continue to be reborn, but your child in your current body will be lost forever. Do you want to use Hellpower as a passive supplement? Once it is activated, it will be the only form of power you will be able to use in the future, as Hellpower conflicts with the energy of your current world and they cannot coexist. In the future, you will only be able to absorb Hellpower from the Gate of Hell to survive. Are you sure you want to do it?”

Mu Yunshen didn’t know where that voice came from, nor did he understand what it meant. The only thing he knew in his mind was:

Live! Live with his child! Live together!
