Jiang Yanli was asleep until a sudden urge to vomit awoke her. Immediately she threw her blanket aside and ran to the bathroom. She hurled in the bathroom gripping on to the seat while holding her head in her hand. 

Jin Zixuan who was sleeping beside her was also awoken suddenly. "Yanli?" Jin Zixuan questioned as he saw her run to the bathroom and began vomiting. Concerned he quickly rushed to her side and held her hair back while rubbing her back comfortingly. "Do you need anything? Water?" Jin Zixuan asked. Jiang Yanli shook her head. "No, it's fine...thank you" Yanli shook her head. When she seemed to have stopped vomiting, he took her into his arms and placed her on the bed. 

"I'll get the physician, please wait" Jin Zixuan said as he ran to the door not caring if he was dressed or not. While Jin Zixuan was calling for the physician, Jiang Yanli used the wall for support to go back to the bathroom to brush her teeth. When she was done she tried to make her way back to the bed but before she could even do that she fell to the ground feeling dizzy. 

She could hear Jin Zixuan calling out her name as she felt two arms pick her up and lie her on the bed. Jin Zixuan was holding her hand as the physicians came in and did a body check on her. The physician seemed to understand what was wrong but started to ask questions just in case. "Ms. Yanli, have you been feeling tired lately?" the physician asked as she nodded. "Have you been feeling dizzy or lightheaded?" Jiang Yanli nodded once again increasing her grip on Jin Zixuan's hand. The physician was sure that this was the case. "Well, Ms. Yanli. You are baring a child".

Jiang Yanli gasped. "A child?" She thought as she rubbed her stomach. She took a glance at Jin Zixuan as he was also speechless. "I'm going to be a father" Jin Zixuan said while smiling at his wife. Jiang Yanli smiled. "Yes, and I'm sure you'll raise him to be a great cultivator" Jiang Yanli said as Jin Zixuan kissed the top of her head.

Jin Zixuan continued his normal duties but payed special attention to Jiang Yanli. He would constantly be checking if she was okay, if she felt unwell, or needed to call the physician. She declined each time to the point where she felt a bit irritated from the constant check up's she would receive, however she knew it was just Jin Zixuan caring about her. 

Every time Jin Zixuan would finish work he would rush to her side and begin picking things out for the baby, such as cradles, beds, diapers, toys, bottles, bibs, pacifiers, and clothes. "Say, Zixuan. Do you think the baby will be a boy or a girl?" Jiang Yanli asked. "Anything is possible. You're having another check up this afternoon so we'll ask the physician what the gender is" Jin Zixuan said. 

When they found out the baby was going to be a boy, Jin Zixuan was beyond happy. He knew that now he would be able to hand over the Lanling Jin Sect over to someone with no regrets. 

Months pasted as the baby in Jiang Yanli's stomach grew bigger and bigger to point where she wouldn't be able to walk around freely with taking a view breaks here and there. Her morning sickness wasn't helping her either. So she would just stay in their shared room till Jin Zixuan would come back. "Jin Zixuan, why don't you take a break? You seem to be stressed out a bit too much lately" Jiang Yanli suggested. "It's fine, just get some rest, Yanli" Jin Zixuan said. 

Jiang Yanli wasn't liking that fact that Jin Zixuan was doing all the work, just because she pregnant doesn't mean she couldn't do work in the room. "Erm, maybe I could help you with some paper work" Jiang Yanli suggested. "I said its fine" Jin Zixuan said voice raising a bit. Jiang Yanli noticed this as she just sat in silence afterwards looking at the ground. Jin Zixuan sighed. "My apologizes, I didn't mean to raise my voice at you, its just...with a baby on the way I don't want anything to happen to it" Jin Zixuan said. 

Jiang Yanli just smiled in understanding. "I understand-ah!" Jin Zixuan immediately turned his attention to her. "What's wrong?!" He ran over to her as he saw her clenching her stomach. "The baby..." Jiang Yanli mumbled loudly gritting in pain. "I'll get the physician, please hold on!" Jin Zixuan said as he ran out. The pain Jiang Yanli was feeling felt unbearable as she pleaded for the physicians to arrive soon. 

When the physicians arrived they went straight to work. Jin Zixuan who was told to wait outside walked around in circle. "Please let them be okay..." He prayed. "Jin Zixuan, please sit down" A maid said. "I'm fine, just get back to work" Jin Zixuan said while he continued to wait. 

After a few hours later he heard a baby crying and the physicians coming out. He immediately walked over to them. "How are they?" Jin Zixuan asked. The physicians smiled. "The delivery is a success, congratulations" The physicians said. Happily he walked in the room in an elegant fashion as he saw Jiang Yanli carrying a small baby in her arms. She was covered in sweat and was red. He walked over to them and kissed the top of Jiang Yanli's forehead. "You did well". Jiang Yanli smiled. "Thank you" She thanked as she looked at the baby in her arms. "What are we going to call him?" Jiang Yanli asked. Jin Zixuan thought for a moment. "How about Jin Ling?" Jin Zixuan suggested. "Jin Ling, that's a beautiful name". 

Jiang Yanli rocked the baby in her arms gently. "Jin Ling, that's your daddy" Jiang Yanli said to the baby as the baby squirmed around in response. "He looks like you" Jiang Yanli said looking at Jin Zixuan. Jiang Yanli handed the baby over to Jin Zixuan. Jin Zixuan didn't know what to do as he just rocked the baby in his arms. Suddenly the baby started to cry as he started to panick. 

For some reason taking care a baby was a lot more stressful than getting rid of a demon. He quickly handed the baby back to Jiang Yanli who cradled the baby back to sleep. "Jin Ling, I can't wait to see you grown up..." Jiang Yanli said. "You'll be a great cultivator..."
