Chapter 575: Becoming a Father
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
An Lin and the others were all astonished by the scenes unfolding before their very eyes.
None of them had ever witnessed a Heavenly Void Beast giving birth before. Heck, they had never even heard of how Heavenly Void Beasts were supposed to give birth! Even the knowledgeable and experienced Xiao Ze was no exception to this.
“Wah…” The large Heavenly Void Beast heaved a sigh of relief.
As for the newly born small Heavenly Void Beast, it was entirely black and shaped like a whale as well. It was only a few kilometers in length, but its aura was already extremely fearsome from birth!
An Lin estimated that it was about as powerful as Tina. It certainly didn’t feel like a newly-born organism at all.
“Return to Void Stage from birth… As expected of a Heavenly Void Beast that is born with spatial manipulation abilities. Just its starting position is well ahead of everyone else on this path of cultivation.” Xiao Ze sighed with emotion.
Xue Zhantian was extremely shattered as tears streaked down his face. “I’ve lived for so long, but I haven’t even reached that starting position yet! My life is such a failure!”
Everyone had mixed emotions upon witnessing the birth of the Heavenly Void Beast.
The little whale opened its bright eyes, which were a little dazed, but they were glowing with scintillating golden light, which was in direct contrast to its pitch black body.
“Waah…”
The large whale slowly floated in the air before twisting around to look at the little whale with joy and adoration in its eyes.
“Mommy…” The little whale looked up at the large whale before speaking in a clear, crisp voice.
The large whale was taken aback upon hearing this, as were An Lin and the others.
Because… the little whale had just spoken in the language of the Tai Chu Realm, which is the language of the world that An Lin and the others were currently situated in.
That was really bizarre. Weren’t whales supposed to communicate in whale calls? Why was it able to speak in the language of the Tai Chu Realm from birth? Who taught that language to it?
Everyone was still rooted to the spot in astonishment when the little whale flew toward the large whale before rubbing the tip of its nose with its comparatively tiny body in a show of affection. The large whale soon recovered its astonishment and began to bask in the intimacy of the moment.
After a while, the little whale suddenly turned to An Lin and the others.
At this moment, An Lin and the others all tensed up in anticipation. Even though the little whale had just been born, it was already extremely powerful.
The little whale turned its eyes on An Lin as a joyful expression appeared on its face. “Daddy!”
Everyone instantly fell silent.
Everyone at the scene, including the large whale, were all staring at the little whale in bafflement.
“Daddy, daddy!” The little whale flew through the air before reaching An Lin and rubbing its soft nose on An Lin’s body.
From An Lin’s perspective, it looked like a pitch-black pillar ramming repeatedly into his body…
“Daddy!” the little whale continued to yell in excitement.
Alright, so it appeared as if the little whale thought that An Lin was its father…
An Lin’s mind had gone completely blank. He felt like he was dreaming!
As for Cassidy and the others, all of them were also shocked beyond words!
“As expected of Master to be able to tame a Heavenly Void Beast like this!” Xiao Ze drew a sharp intake of breath. A higher degree of reverence glowed in his eyes as he looked at An Lin.
“Who would have thought that Giant An Lin’s baby would be even bigger than An Lin!” Tina’s world had been tipped on its head once again as she exclaimed with astonishment on her face.
“The Holy Leader is even taking whale underlings now!” Merlin exclaimed with a peculiar hint of excitement on his face.
Chang He put his palms together before lightly bowing. “Amitabha, congratulations, Benefactor An Lin, you are a father now.”
Celestial Maiden He and the others all came to their senses before offering congratulatory words to An Lin.
An Lin wore a suicidal expression on his face as he was rammed relentlessly by the little whale. Words failed to describe what he was feeling.
The little whale insisted on calling him father as soon as it was born… How the hell was he its father?!!
Any normal person would know that this was impossible! The whale was so massive; how could he have impregnated it?!
Even if he could, he wasn’t into bestiality anyway!
“Wah! An Lin! What the hell did you do?!” An extremely enraged intent suddenly swept through heaven and earth; the large whale was no longer able to keep calm. It unleashed its killing intent with all its might, and everyone’s consciousness was struck by a sharp pain.
Everyone shuddered as they came to their senses and pulled out their weapons before standing around An Lin in a defensive formation.
“This doesn’t look right. Could it be that you really didn’t do the deed with the whale?” Xiao Ze turned to question An Lin with a serious expression.
An Lin almost blacked out and vomited blood upon hearing this as he flared up in rage. “No sh*t! How the f*ck could I do something like that with a whale?!”
“Mommy! Don’t hurt my dad!” A crisp, pleasant voice sounded as the little whale positioned its body in front of An Lin with a determined expression.
The large whale stared at the little whale with shock etched all over its face.
Everyone also turned to An Lin’s with dumbstruck expressions, as if to say “is that little whale really not your child?”.
An Lin: “…”
“I… I’m not your father!” An Lin spoke with difficulty.
The little whale didn’t say anything.
Just as everyone thought that it had been confused by An Lin’s words, they discovered tears flowing from the little whale’s eyes before falling to the ground, where they created two small streams.
Xue Zhantian murmured to himself, “Is this the legendary river of tears?”
Cassidy and Celestial Maiden He both turned to glower at An Lin, as if they were internally labeling him as irresponsible scum!
An Lin’ eyes widened as his mouth gaped open, but he didn’t know what to say.
The large whale felt like its heart was about to break at the sight of the tears flowing down the little whale’s cheeks. A scorching killing intent burst forth from its eyes as it prepared to slay An Lin regardless of the consequences!
“I am a hermaphrodite! How dare you trick my child into calling you father! I’ll kill you!” A powerful killing intent swept toward everyone, giving them a sense of asphyxiation.
An Lin heaved a sigh of relief even as the overwhelming killing intent engulfed his body. That settled the issue then. It was going to be difficult to explain to Xiaolan if the whale wasn’t a hermaphrodite…
He was not the father!
Hermaphrodite?
Everyone faltered upon hearing this before disappointment welled up in their hearts.
They were thinking they would be able to witness a historic moment, but who would have thought that it was just a misunderstanding?
Then… why would the little whale call An Lin “daddy”?
“You’re lying, Mommy! I am your child and daddy’s child!” the little whale retorted with a determined expression, but the tears began to flow more quickly from its eyes.
Celestial Maiden He murmured to herself, “What a poor little whale… The father refuses to acknowledge it while the mother refuses to acknowledge the father. What kind of psychological scars will such a conflicting home environment inflict on the poor child’s heart?”
An Lin clasped his hands to his chest. She’s reading way too much into this!
The little whale’s body shuddered violently as two auras appeared before its body, one of which was black and chaotic and extremely immense, while the other was a small ball of red aura. Although the red aura was quite small, it contained a completely different aura to the black ball of chaos.
Everyone sensed the familiar aura before turning their eyes on An Lin again while their eyes slowly widened.
An Lin’s heart skipped a beat as his body was rooted to the spot.
That red ball of aura was quite familiar…
As it belonged to An Lin!
A thought began to occur to him as he lined up all the evidence.
An Lin’s body swayed as if he was about to topple over.
He knew what had happened now. This little whale might really be his child…
