My Celestial Ascension

Chapter 66 Xi Meili

?

In the midst of the chaotic world outside, Yuan and Xi Meili found solace in each other's embrace. As their bodies pressed against one another, they could feel the warmth and comfort that only true companionship could bring.

Xi Meili, overcome with emotions, couldn't help but hold Yuan tightly, cherishing the feeling of being in his arms. She rested her head on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat, finding solace in its familiar sound.

Yuan, his heart filled with love and adoration for his newfound wife, smiled down at her. He marveled at the fact that she had emerged from the dragon egg as a fully grown woman, rather than the expected baby dragon. It was a sight he hadn't anticipated, but one he found enchanting.

Curiosity getting the better of him, Yuan couldn't help but voice his thoughts aloud. "I never expected you to be a fully grown woman, Xi Meili. I thought dragons hatched as baby dragons instead. Nora, Can you explain why?"

Nora, ever present and ready to provide answers, responded promptly. [It is not uncommon for the most divine beasts, such as Xi Meili, to be born as fully grown beings. This is especially true for those with high-ranking and pure bloodlines, like Xi Meili herself.] 

[Additionally, she possesses the rare 'God Chaos Physique,' a type of divine physique that originated in the primordial era. Although she was born today, her true age is likely over a thousand years. Dragons, you see, count the age of their children from the moment the egg is laid. Therefore, it is not surprising that she possesses the ability to speak without any difficulty.]

Yuan's eyes widened with understanding as he absorbed the information. And he speaks out loud, "Ah, now I see. That explains why Xi Meili can address me and speak so naturally. Despite her birth occurring today, she is much older than me, and the age gap between us is vast."

Xi Meili, still nestled in Yuan's arms, nodded softly. "Indeed, my dear husband. While I may have been born today in your world, my existence stretches back for countless years. But age matters little when it comes to matters of the heart. We are destined to be together, regardless of the temporal differences between us."

Yuan's smile widened, his love for Xi Meili grew stronger with each passing moment. "You are right, my love. Time cannot diminish the bond we share."

Their hearts entwined, Yuan and Xi Meili continued to revel in the warmth of their embrace, finding solace and strength in each other's presence. 

As Xi Meili's naked body pressed against Yuan's, he couldn't help but notice a faint scent of raw eggs emanating from her. Intrigued, he watched as she released her embrace and approached the eggshell that lay on his bed, now covered in a sticky substance. With a swift motion, she picked up a large chunk of the eggshell and began to consume it.

Yuan's eyes widened in amusement, finding his wife's behavior both strange and fascinating. He recalled that certain reptiles and birds would eat their own eggshells after hatching, and it seemed that dragons might follow a similar instinct.

Xi Meili, aware of Yuan's gaze, turned to him with an innocent smile on her face. "Darling, are you feeling hungry too? If so, I would be delighted to share my food with you."

Yuan was taken aback by her offer but chuckled softly. "No, my love. I have already had dinner not too long ago. Please, continue."

As Xi Meili continued to consume the eggshells, suddenly, Nora's voice caught Yuan's attention, saying, [Host should store some of the eggshells in the system's storage, they were considered priceless treasures. Alchemists and enthusiasts alike would go to great lengths to obtain even a tiny piece of dragon eggshell, as it held immense value for pill refining and high-ranking winemaking.]

With Nora's guidance in mind, Yuan turned to Xi Meili, who sat on his bed, happily devouring the eggshells. He gently asked, "Meili, can I have some pieces of the eggshells for future use."

Xi Meili smiled warmly and picked up a sizable chunk of eggshell, offering it to Yuan. "Of course, my dear husband. You can have as much as you want. There is no need to ask for something so simple."

Grateful for her understanding, Yuan accepted the offered piece of eggshell and carefully stored it in his system's storage. He made a mental note to explore its potential applications at a later time.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps reached Yuan's ears from outside his room. Before he could react, the door burst open, revealing his two mothers, Anna and Grace, his elder sister, Lily, and his lover, Emma. Their unexpected entrance caught Yuan by surprise.

As Anna, Grace, Lily, and Emma stepped into Yuan's room, their eyes widened in astonishment at the sight before them. A naked girl, her hair a striking blend of black and crimson, adorned with a pair of majestic horns on her head and adorned with scales, clung tightly to Yuan, hissing fiercely in their presence.

Xi Meili, sensing the unfamiliar figures entering the room, swiftly leaped towards Yuan, wrapping her arms around him as if to shield him from any perceived threat. Her eyes narrowed, and she hissed at Anna, Grace, Lily, and Emma, as if they were intruders seeking to harm her beloved husband. Her protective instincts surged forth, reminiscent of a female serpent guarding her precious eggs.

Yuan, caught between the fierce devotion of his first wife and the bewildered expressions of his other loved ones, attempted to diffuse the tension. He gently reassured Xi Meili, "It's alright, my love. These are my family members. They mean no harm."

Xi Meili's hissing subsided as she regarded Yuan's words, still cautious but willing to trust his judgment. She slowly loosened her grip, allowing a moment of calm to settle over the room.

Emma's instincts immediately sensed something extraordinary about the naked girl. A primal recognition of divinity and otherworldliness washed over her, urging her to approach with caution and reverence.

Anna, Grace, and Lily, on the other hand, could only perceive the immense pressure emanating from the girl's cultivation level. Confusion and concern mingled on their faces as they directed their gaze towards Yuan, their beloved son, and brother.

With a cold smile gracing her lips, Anna took a step forward and inquired, her tone laced with suspicion, "Dear, who is this young lady clinging to you so intimately?"

Lily joined Anna, her voice filled with demand and urgency, "We deserve an explanation, Yuan. Who is she?"

Grace, wearing a chilling smile, added to the tension, her words dripping with venom, "Darling, are you not satisfied with our bodies? Have you found another girl to amuse yourself with?"

The weight of their gazes bore down on Yuan, causing beads of sweat to form on his forehead. Xi Meili, sensing the shift in the room's atmosphere, stood silently, understanding that Yuan had already vouched for her.

With an anxious expression etched on his face, Yuan began to explain the situation to his two mothers, Anna and Grace, his elder sister, Lily, and his beloved Emma. He introduced Xi Meili as his first wife and emphasized that she had just hatched from a dragon egg.

In an attempt to defuse the tension, Yuan implored his family to assist Xi Meili in cleaning herself and requested that Lily provide her with clothes.

Anna, Grace, and Lily exchanged glances, their cold smiles fading slightly. They took in Yuan's earnest expression and the genuine concern in his eyes. After a moment of silent contemplation, Anna nodded.

"Very well," Anna spoke with a hint of warmth in her voice. "We shall help your first wife and our sister, but we need to have a proper conversation afterward."

Grace, too, softened her expression. "Indeed, we should discuss this matter further. It seems there is much we need to understand."

Lily, though still cautious, relented. "I will get some clothes for her. Let's focus on ensuring her comfort first."

Emma, her initial apprehension fading, approached Xi Meili with a newfound sense of curiosity. "Welcome, Xi Meili. I look forward to getting to know you better."

After that, Yuan's wives led Xi Meili away to clean herself and find suitable attire, Xi Meili glanced back at Yuan, seeking his approval. Seeing the reassuring nod from her husband, she smiled and followed Anna, Grace, Lily, and Emma, their friendly gestures easing her initial hesitation and unease.

Once they had left the room, Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He surveyed the aftermath of the hatching, his gaze falling upon the wet and sticky substance that had coated his bedsheet. Determined to restore order, he swiftly changed the soiled bedding, ensuring a fresh and clean environment.

Finally, settling back onto his bed, Yuan's anticipation grew as he contemplated the system reward and the sword he had acquired. With a determined expression, he retrieved a colossal wooden box from the system storage. The box measured an impressive six feet in length, one foot in width, and seven inches in thickness. Its surface bore intricate golden engravings, showcasing its elegance and significance.

However, Yuan's excitement was accompanied by a sense of disbelief at the box's weight. It was astoundingly heavy, weighing approximately 2.75 tons (2500 kg). Struggling to maneuver the immense box, Yuan carefully managed to lower it onto the floor, ensuring no harm befell its precious contents.

As he caught his breath, Yuan marveled at the sheer size and weight of the box. "It's incredible," he exclaimed, his voice filled with awe. "I can't believe the weight of it."

Taking a moment to steady himself, Yuan eagerly anticipated the unveiling of his newfound treasure. With a determined glint in his eyes, he prepared to open the wooden box, eager to discover the magnificent sword that awaited him inside.
