Douluo: Marrying a Wife to Become a God, Having Children for Blessings

Sea God Island.

Sea Dragon City.

In the courtyard of the City Lord's residence, Sea Dragon Douluo, Sea Horse Douluo, Sea Maiden Douluo, and Xiao Bai, along with other powerhouses of Sea God Island, paced back and forth like ants on a hot pan.

Although Zhou Yi had assured them everything would be fine, the severity of Bo Saixi's injuries left them deeply unsettled.

How could they not worry?

Moreover, they weren't entirely at ease with Zhou Yi. What if he harbored ill intentions toward the High Priestess? Especially since Bo Saixi was unconscious and unable to defend herself, Zhou Yi could do anything he wished without resistance.

This was precisely why Sea Dragon Douluo had initially suggested leaving Sea Maiden Douluo behind. Unfortunately, Zhou Yi's refusal left them no choice.

After all, Zhou Yi was their only hope of saving the High Priestess.

Even Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu, who appeared calm on the surface, were filled with unease.

Bo Saixi's beauty was unparalleled.

And Zhou Yi, that scoundrel, was known for his roguish tendencies.

What if he took advantage of her vulnerability?

But fretting served no purpose.

They had no ability to heal Bo Saixi themselves and could only rely on Zhou Yi.

Whatever he said, they had to trust him.

Suddenly, a soft cry echoed from inside the room, sending a shiver through everyone outside. The gathered crowd immediately perked up.

"High Priestess, are you all right?" Sea Dragon Douluo called anxiously.

"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me? If something goes wrong, will you take responsibility? Get lost!"

Zhou Yi's stern reprimand sent a chill down everyone's spine.

The abrupt noise startled Bo Saixi, her tense body nearly causing Zhou Yi to...

"I... I'm fine..." Bo Saixi's weak and faltering voice drifted out. "You all... leave... and make sure no one disturbs us..."

"Yes, High Priestess!"

Hearing her voice, the group finally breathed a collective sigh of relief.

If the High Priestess was awake, there was no imminent danger.

"My apologies for interrupting earlier, Senior. Rest assured, we won't make the same mistake again!" Sea Dragon Douluo bowed deeply toward the room before leading everyone away from the courtyard. They stationed themselves at the outer gates, ensuring no one could intrude.

Qian Daoliu cast a long, contemplative glance toward the courtyard. Something about Bo Saixi's tone seemed... peculiar.

Still, he couldn't act on his suspicions.

He couldn't very well barge in to confirm.

Sea Dragon Douluo and the others, meanwhile, were finally at ease. With the High Priestess awake, they felt Zhou Yi wouldn't dare overstep.

Their focus turned to their duty—guarding the courtyard to prevent any interruptions to the High Priest's recovery.

Inside the room.

"You little scoundrel! If someone had come in, how could I ever face anyone again?"

Bo Saixi pinched Zhou Yi's waist with a glare, her eyes as blue and vast as the sea itself. For a moment, her expression exuded a grace and allure that could captivate all creation.

Little scoundrel?

Am I 'little'?

Zhou Yi raised an eyebrow, smirking mischievously as he slapped her lightly on the back. "Don't you already know whether I'm little or not?"

"Ah!"

Bo Saixi yelped in pain, her gaze full of grievance as she glared at Zhou Yi. "Fine, you big scoundrel! This lifetime of mine is truly in your hands."

"Big scoundrel? Just big?" Zhou Yi's playful grin widened as he leaned closer to her ear. "I can be even worse, you know."

"Don't... ah..."

Time ticked away, second by second.

Outside the courtyard, Sea Dragon Douluo and the others stood vigilantly on guard, completely oblivious to the tempestuous events unfolding inside.

Even Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu were growing impatient.

"Does treatment really take this long?" Tang Chen muttered.

Healing a Soul Master was usually swift—a single healing technique would often yield immediate results.

However, seeing the patience of Sea Dragon Douluo and the others, they refrained from voicing their doubts.

Nearby, Xiao Bai pulled Sea Maiden Douluo aside to whisper conspiratorially.

"Sea Maiden, we lost the bet with that scoundrel. What do we do now?"

Xiao Bai's expression was filled with worry. She hadn't expected to lose such a seemingly sure bet.

Who could have imagined the High Priestess wouldn't stand a chance?

"A bet is a bet. What else can we do? Even if we wanted to renege, we can't win against him." Sea Maiden Douluo sighed, resigning herself to the situation.

Even the High Priestess had been gravely injured, defeated by a single strike.

What chance did they have to resist?

Since they couldn't fight back, it was better to accept their fate gracefully.

"Ah..." Xiao Bai stared at her, wide-eyed with disbelief. "That's it? Your head is even dumber than mine!"

"I need to leave! My transformation time is almost up!"

With a quick decision, Xiao Bai planned her retreat.

Her current human form was merely a temporary state granted by her innate ability—it wasn't a true transformation.

Thus, her time in this form was limited. If she didn't return to the sea before the time was up, the consequences would be dire.

Xiao Bai bolted.

She leaped gracefully into the ocean, transforming mid-air into a sleek and powerful Demon Soul Great White Shark.

"If I can't beat them, I can at least avoid them!"

She thought to herself as she disappeared beneath the waves.

Xiao Bai resolved not to linger near Sea God Island until Zhou Yi had left for good.

...

Above the boundless sea, the great sun sank slowly into the horizon.

The remnants of sunlight painted the sky and ocean a blood-red hue, creating a scene of haunting beauty.

Meanwhile, Qian Daoliu and the others were growing restless.

"Why isn't it done yet?"

The day had slipped away, the sun had set, and yet there was no sign of an end.

"Does healing really take this long?"

While Qian Daoliu and his companions anxiously waited outside, inside the chamber, Zhou Yi was holding Bo Saixi in a close embrace.

His chest pressed against her smooth, alabaster back, the two enjoying the fleeting calm after a moment of passion.

Inhaling the subtle fragrance of her hair, Zhou Yi murmured indulgently by her delicate ear:

"Xi Xi, how about another round?"

As he spoke, his hand began to wander.

Bo Saixi, her fingers soft and boneless, caught Zhou Yi's mischievous hand. She shot him a playful glare and said teasingly:

"Not now. Sea Dragon and the others are still waiting outside. You need to go!"

"But what if I don't want to leave?"

Zhou Yi buried his face against her fragrant shoulder, acting utterly shameless.

"They've been worried and waiting all day. Next time, alright?"

Bo Saixi felt a mix of emotions—joy at Zhou Yi's devotion and helplessness at his seemingly boundless energy.

"Alright," Zhou Yi relented but seized the chance to negotiate, "but next time, you'll do whatever I say, deal?"

His mind was already swirling with ideas.

"Fine, fine, whatever you say!"

Bo Saixi humored him, as if placating a child.

Men, she thought, remain boys at heart—always eager to linger in her arms, indulging in their whims.

"Don't forget, you promised!"

With a mischievous grin, Zhou Yi finally released her and stepped away.

After tidying up, Zhou Yi and Bo Saixi walked out of the chamber together.

The creaking of the door broke the tense silence.

As the pair emerged, all eyes—Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen, Sea Dragon Douluo, Sea Horse Douluo, Sea Maiden Douluo, and others—immediately turned toward them.

For a moment, the group froze, their gazes locked on Bo Saixi.

Their expressions collectively shifted to stunned disbelief, as if they couldn't trust their own eyes.
