There’s no denying that the manufacturing capabilities of the Great Qian Dynasty are truly formidable.

In just a few months, they had upgraded the spirit boat once again.

The defensive and offensive formations on board have all been enhanced, transforming it into a fully armed war giant.

Without a doubt, at this pace of iteration, the Great Qian Dynasty might indeed become part of the technological flow in the mortal world.

They truly have a heart for progress.

Ye Yu looked up, spotting a stunning figure in a dragon robe standing atop the spirit boat.

Li Ruowang’s lips curled into a beautiful arc before she gracefully leapt down from the vessel.

Just as she was about to touch the ground, a golden dragon phantom appeared beneath her feet, aiding her in a smooth landing.

After circling around her, the golden dragon slowly dissipated.

Such a unique entrance caused Bai Miaoling to sneer dismissively.

“Hmph, showing off. Why not just come down properly instead of making a scene?”

Fu Wangdai chuckled. “Actually, it looks quite nice.”

Bai Miaoling remained unconvinced.

“What use is that? Could it be that this spirit boat is the so-called secret weapon she mentioned? Completely useless. Cultivators rely on themselves, not external forces.”

Fu Wangdai said nothing.

Though she didn’t know what exactly Li Ruowang had brought back from the Great Qian Dynasty as the secret weapon, it certainly wouldn’t be as simple as it seemed.

When Ye Yu saw Li Ruowang’s arrival, he softly asked, “Is this the latest creation from Great Qian? It does look quite impressive.”

“Yes, this is the latest creation. But I can’t give you this spirit boat, as I’ve already given it to someone else important,” Li Ruowang said with a teasing tone.

Someone else important?

Ye Yu had a guess in his heart.

In the next second, a small figure leapt from the spirit boat. Numerous red ribbons twined around her body, escorting her as she gracefully descended.

“Daddy!”

The moment the clear voice rang out, everyone at the scene froze.

Only Ye Yu smiled, and the tenderness in his eyes could not be hidden.

That’s right.

The one who had arrived was Ye Nian.

As she landed, she ran toward Ye Yu and threw herself into his arms.

The simple action caused Bai Miaoling and Fu Wangdai to instinctively step back a few paces.

The impact was overwhelming.

Since when did Ye Yu have a daughter?

How had they not known before?

It wasn’t just them. None of the other wives present knew about it either.

Yun Roumu suddenly widened her eyes, recalling that during their mission to Great Qian earlier, the people there had mentioned: the Empress is unmarried but has a daughter.

As for who the father of the daughter was, no one knew.

Now, it seemed the answer had been revealed.

But this is truly unbelievable.

Li Ruowang never mentioned this before. Was this woman really hiding so deeply?

Feeling the stunned expressions of the people around her, Li Ruowang slightly raised her head, a faint, almost imperceptible smile on her face, looking even more haughty.

It seems this secret weapon is quite effective.

Sisters, I’ve won too much against you all. What can you even fight me with?

But Ye Nian didn’t care about any of that. She nuzzled Ye Yu’s shoulder affectionately, clinging to him completely.

Ye Yu felt a warmth in his heart.

Regarding the daughter he had with Li Ruowang in his dream, he had always been fond of her. When he learned that the system had brought her into reality, he was even happier.

The longing after being apart for so long naturally made him want to hold her close.

But at that moment, Ye Nian suddenly jumped down from Ye Yu and stood before him, performing a respectful bow.

“Greetings, Father Emperor. I was too bold earlier and neglected the proper etiquette. Please forgive me.”

The formal, practiced motion made Ye Yu furrow his brow slightly and turn his gaze to Li Ruowang.

She gave a slight bow in return.

“These manners were taught by the court etiquette officers. It has nothing to do with this consort!”

The words “臣妾” (consort) were spoken very clearly.

This was the first time Li Ruowang referred to herself as a humble consort rather than “朕” (the royal “I”).

The meaning was obvious.

She was willing to let go of Great Qian and only wished to remain by Ye Yu’s side, as his consort. Of course, being the empress would be even better.

This was also Li Ruowang asserting her sovereignty.

Ye Yu spoke in a deep voice, “Don’t teach Nian’er such things in the future. There’s no need for such complicated formalities between a father and daughter. It makes things seem too distant!”

Hearing those words, Li Ruowang’s heart was pleased.

She surveyed the surroundings with a provocative gaze.

Ye Yu had openly acknowledged Ye Nian’s identity.

With motherhood comes status, what could you possibly fight me with?

“Concubine understands. I’ll have those etiquette officers removed at once. Nian’er, since your father doesn’t like these formalities, you don’t need to be so constrained.”

“Really? That’s great!”

Ye Nian grabbed Ye Yu’s hand, tilting her head, “Daddy, I really missed you. Can you play with Nian’er?”

“Of course.”

Ye Yu readily agreed.

Who could refuse a daughter’s cuteness? When she clings to you like this, you’d wish to pluck the stars from the sky for her.

Carrying Ye Nian, Ye Yu walked down the mountain.

His daughter had finally arrived. How could he not show her around properly?

Ye Yu and Ye Nian left, leaving the faces of everyone present looking extremely strange.

No one dared to speak first.

The impact of this revelation was simply overwhelming. They all needed a moment to collect themselves.

Li Ruowang didn’t rush either, standing calmly among the crowd.

With a look of satisfaction, she watched as the expressions of shock played across their faces. This feeling… was truly gratifying!

Finally, it was Bai Miaoling who broke the silence.

“Li Ruowang! What exactly is going on with that little girl?”

“The little girl’s name is Ye Nian, the same ‘Ye’ as Ye Yu. She’s my and Ye Yu’s biological daughter.”

“Oh, and by the way, to be clear, everyone here is her ‘aunt’!”

Li Ruowang’s voice was light, but its impact was enough to make everyone draw in a sharp breath.

The term “aunt” (姨娘 yí niáng) is only used by a legitimate child to refer to their father’s concubines. This single word directly determined the status of all dozen or so women present.

No, how could this be? Out of nowhere, how could a daughter suddenly appear? She looks about 4 or 5 years old.

Where did such a big daughter come from?

Gan Zhizui gritted her teeth, muttering in a low voice, “Is she really your child with Ye Yu?”

“Not a word of deception! I have to spend time now playing with my husband and daughter. Oh, the happiness of a family of three, you wouldn’t understand!”

Li Ruowang burst into laughter and walked away.

Her laughter was carefree and bright.

But to Bai Miaoling, Gan Zhizui, Yun Roumu, and the others, it sounded harsh and grating.

Everyone present couldn’t help but furrow their brows.

Xie Muling even lowered her gaze to her own stomach.

Others already had daughters.

Why not me?
