Chapter 347: Chapter 346: Full Moon Banquet
When Jiang Li arrived at the White Marsh Emperor’s kingdom, he found White Snow Spirit was busy reviewing a stack of papers in the Yangxin Hall, demonstrating her diligence in public affairs.
“Are you… the Kylin form of White Snow Spirit?” Jiang Li noticed the golden eyes of White Snow Spirit in front of him, they looked rather attractive.
Accompanying Jiang Li to the Lingxi World was the Baize form of White Snow Spirit.
Seeing Jiang Li arrive, Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit put away the official papers, “Human Emperor, don’t distinguish between us so meticulously. Be it the Baize form or the Kylin form, we are both White Snow Spirit. We share the same thoughts, the same feelingss. I can sense everything she says, everything she does, and she can also sense my thoughts, my deeds.”
The Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit stressed, “I am White Snow Spirit. What does the Human Emperor want with me?”
“Do you still have the blood of the First Generation Baize Emperor?”
“Of course, would you like me to show you?”
“Good.”
A satisfied smile decorated the corner of the Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit’s mouth as she had been anticipating this moment. She telepathically messaged the Baize form of White Snow Spirit, “The Human Emperor needs me, it’s your turn to handle the governance now.”
When the Baize form of White Snow Spirit rushed to the location, there were heaps of documents to be reviewed, but the Kylin form was nowhere to be seen.
She ground her teeth in rage. After a painfully long time of governing, she had finally found an opportunity to delegate the task to her other form and truly enjoy freedom. To her surprise, her other form had the same idea.
“Truly befitting of my other form!” freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
“You seem to be livelier than your Baize form.” Jiang Li noticed that compared to the Baize form, Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit expressed herself more vividly.
“Naturally, after all, she is Baize, and I am Kylin.”
“How does that make a difference?”
“Baize symbolizes wisdom. You’ve never seen a wise one laughing all day, it’s not appropriate. Kylin symbolizes blessings; as a Kylin, I naturally should be lively and cheerful, to bring joy to people.” Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit analyzared in all seriousness, leaving Jiang Li unsure of whether what she said was the truth or not.
As they were chatting, Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit fetched a sealed ivory bottle from the treasury. As she opened the bottle, a few drops of blood flew from it and hovered in the air.
“This is the blood left by our ancestor when he returned to the Kyushu after becoming a Heavenly Immortal.”
This was a treasure of the Baize Empire, but the Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit handed it over to Jiang Li with no hint of guard or hesitation in her posture.
Jiang Li analysed this drop of blood from the First Generation Baize Emperor, finding it similar to the blood used by Du Ye, but with some minor differences.
These differences are enough to distinguish the First Generation Baize Emperor from Du Ye.
“Are you suspecting that our ancestor has a connection with Du Ye?” Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit was aware of the events at the Lingxi World because both forms share the same memory and feelings.
“I must be overthinking.” Jiang Li shook his head and returned the blood to the Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit.
Come to think of it, White Snow Spirit had seen the blood of the First Generation Baize Emperor before. If their blood were identical, it would be impossible for her not to realize it.
“What’s your take on the Heavenly Demon?” Jiang Li wanted to know what the Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit thought as even though their personalities were different, their knowledge remained the same.
“I don’t know anything about it. The Heavenly Demon is a blind spot in my knowledge. Baize is not omniscient. For example, I know nothing about the Heavenly Demon, the Mahayana Realm, and how to breakthrough the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.”
The Golden-Eye White Snow Spirit joked, “If I knew everything, I would have broken through the Mahayana Realm by now.”
“It’s no surprise that the long-standing immortal is more experienced having spent tens of thousands of years in the Immortal Realm. I, who have been relying on ancestral blessings, can’t compare.”
Jiang Li consoled her, “The times have changed, there’s no basis for comparison. During those days the path to immortality was still there. People in Kyushu were naturally aware of lots of things in the Immortal Realm and other worlds.
“Nowadays, we have lost all methods to communicate with the Immortal Realm and can only know about it through the notes provided by the immortals and the oral accounts given by the long-standing immortal.”
“You shouldn’t compare yourself to someone who has lived tens of thousands of years.”
“Hall Master, I have some good news for you.” Commander Liu contacted Jiang Li, unable to hide his joy. Jiang Li rarely saw Commander Liu looking so ecstatic.
“What happened?”
Commander Liu lowered his voice to a whisper, “Mrs. and Mr. Ma Zhuo are going to have a child.”
Jiang Li didn’t say a word, “…You don’t have to whisper, it’s as though you’re the one responsible for it.”
“Ahem, each time Ma Zhuo is mentioned, I feel embarrassed and I tend to lower my voice involuntarily.” Commander Liu felt awkward, whenever Ma Zhuo was mentioned, the talk always ended upon a sexual matter, and he had developed a kind of conditional reflex.

Commander Liu regained his composure, “Mr. and Mrs. Ma Zhuo have a child now and will not have to exploit sexual matters anymore. The Imperial Palace has lost two trouble makers… The Imperial Palace will now have two normal Commanders.”
Only then did Jiang Li remember that Mr. and Mrs. Ma Zhuo’s preference for so-called “aphrodisiac” or “reunion-related” things was not innate, but more of a desire to have a child.
Heaven rewarded the diligent. Their hard work finally paid off and they were to have a child.
“How old is the child?”
“The child is still small, he will be born nine months from now.”
“…It is indeed still quite a small child.” Jiang Li sympathised with Commander Liu’s feelings, for he had similar feelings.
Mr. and Mrs. Ma Zhuo were back to being normal, meaning almost half of the five Body Integration Realm commanders of the Imperial Palace were now ordinary people.
In a bigger picture, the Imperial Palace was gradually stepping into the regular path.
If this matter were not so inappropriate to share, Jiang Li suspected that Commander Liu was considering throwing a grand celebration for this event.
“Also, Mr. and Mrs. Ma Zhuo want to hold a small full-month banquet.”
Jiang Li: “???”
Do we have any different understanding of a full-month banquet?
Who would hold a full-month banquet only one month after they become pregnant!
“When Mr. and Mrs. Ma Zhuo came to know about the child, they were very pleased and suggested that the full-month banquet should be held now. I thought they were joking and agreed. However, it turned out they were serious.”
“I initially thought you were busy in the Lingxi World and we decided not to inform you so as to not interrupt your affairs. It just so happens that you’re back, and I want to invite you to the full-month banquet.”
“Only a few Commanders and you, the Hall Master, are invited to the banquet.” Commander Liu then shared the time and location of the full-month banquet with Jiang Li.
Considering how far things had gotten, Jiang Li had no option but to participate.
“Do I need to bring any present?” After all, Jiang Li thought he should express some courtesy.
Jiang Li’s question left Liu stunned, who’s to know what gift should be present at a full-month banquet for a one-month pregnancy: “No precedent has been set for this, Hall Master. You decide what to bring, whatever you bring will be appreciated.”
“How is this different from asking me to order whatever I want?” Jiang Li found Liu’s response to be no different from not having one.
He remembered a time when he went out to eat with Bai Hongtu and others. When he asked them what they wanted to eat, they told him to order whatever he wanted because they ate everything. As a result, after the dishes were ordered, they turned their noses up at this dish and complained about that one.
Is this what they call ordering whatever I want?
Among them, Bai Hongtu was always looking for a problem like looking at a stir-fried cabbage and saying he didn’t like to eat vegetarian food, or pointing at a braised lion’s head and saying he didn’t like to eat meat.
Only Yu Yin would eat whatever Jiang Li ordered.
In the end, Jiang Li and the others would gorge and make Bai Hongtu drink water
