"The ancient tree that Jiuyao loved as a child grows twin fruits at its peak during a full moon. Eating them increases the chance of conception."
The White Tiger Elder stroked his beard, giving Su An'an a meaningful look.
"Silence!"
Ying Jiuyao's tail cracked a bluestone slab by his feet with a WHIP. The soft fur behind his ears bristled. "Don't talk nonsense."
"Lord Jiuyao, you and the Divine Female…"
Before the elder could finish, Ying Jiuyao cut him off. "It's getting late. You should go and rest."
He shot him a dark look, his tail whipping back and forth.
"Then I won't disturb you two any longer."
The elder tactfully took his leave.
Su An'an reached out to stroke Ying Jiuyao's tense back and chuckled softly.
"You know, I'm quite interested in that ancient tree the elder mentioned!"
"Then… shall I take you there to see it?"
Ying Jiuyao turned in pleasant surprise, the tips of his ears turning so red they looked like they were on fire.
