Chapter 260 Lilim’s Compensation (1/2)

Chapter 260 – Lilim's Compensation

February 10th, 183 A.D.

Julu City, Tong's resident areas.

Hua Shi was carried to her room, and all female physicians were summoned today.

There was a reason for the emergency care.

Hua Shi's water broke. It was a sign of labor.

All men were driven out of the areas, leaving only maids and physicians.

Zhang Jiao was pacing around the front of the room, praying for his daughter-in-law.

Sima Fang and Lu Zhi were there as well. They could not smile or be happy on this occasion because the father was not present in the most crucial time.

Tong was supposed to be around to take care of his wife, but he went to Zhongshan to protect the city from Liu Yan.

Everyone could not help but be frustrated by the invading neighbors. Because of them, they ruined this family's most critical moment.

To them, Hua Shi required mental supports, and the best support came from her husband.

Unfortunately, they did not know that Hua Shi was stronger than the ordinary native girls in this world. She understood the importance of Tong's quest and Zhongshan City.

Hua Shi did not mind for not having Tong around at this time as he could come back and see his child later on.

All Hua Shi had to do was to give it her best to deliver a healthy baby and survive.

Sweat was raining on her face, and her eyes were brimming in tears.

>

Tong: Sunday, I'm here with you.

Tong: No matter what, no matter where we are.

Tong: I'm here with you.

Tears rolled down from Hua Shi's eyes the moment she saw the clan messages from Tong. It was enough for her.

No words came from Hua Shi mouth during the painful hours of laboring. She gritted her teeth and gave it her best.

…

Half a day later.

”WAAAAAAA”

The crying voice of a baby alarmed everyone who was praying for Hua Shi outside. Zhang Jiao cheered and laughed for a minute before his face grimed.

The child safety was confirmed by the cry, but the safety of the mother had not been guaranteed.

The death rate of the mother during the childbirth in this era was high as the medicinal technology, and scientific treatment was next to nothing. As there was no proper treatment of high blood pressure, infection, severe bleeding, or other complication from the delivery, the mortality rate of the mother was one of the ten, which translated to 10% death rate.

Zhang Jiao's wife died after she gave birth to Tong. This was the most painful memory that he carried with him all this time.

Zhang Jiao prayed for his daughter-in-law, 'Please be safe.'

At the same time, he could not help but curse at Hua Tuo and his wife for not visiting them even once for years.

'I've sent hundreds of letters! Where the Hell is all of you!?'

Ten minutes later.

Maids and physicians came out of the room, smiling.

”Everyone, the mother and the child are healthy. Both are safe!”

Loud cheers and other noises came from the servants and Tong's subordinates. Zhang Jiao did not cheer with them this time. He only nodded in approval and clenched his fists.

The next thing he wanted to know was, was it a grandson or a granddaughter?

”It's a healthy baby girl. Congratulations, my Lord. You have a granddaughter!”

”Good … Great! Come on, all of you! We'll have a banquet tonight!”

…

…

Hua Shi lied on the bed with the clean white sheet. Next to her, a newborn baby was wrapped around in clean clothes. She kept staring at the baby in a trance.

Thousands of worries were in her mind at the moment.

Hua Shi had heard about the complication of a demon race. A demon in puberty would awaken their wings by getting themselves possessed by their [Sins]. After several hundred thousand years of pacifying their inner sins, they would revert back to their original form with all their awakened wings.

Because Hua Shi and Tong were infected with demonic blood, she was worried that this child might get possessed in the future.

Cheers and laughter from the outside could be heard, yet it was as if the time had stopped inside the room.

The tranquil time between the new mother and her first baby did not last long. A void gate opened, and a grown blond demoness with ten black tentacle wings appeared from the void.

Lilim paid Hua Shi a visit!

”Hi, I'm here to complete the task my mother had asked me.”

Hua Shi came back to her sense, ”Hah? Who are you?”

”Lilim, nice to meet you.”

Hua Shi scanned her from head to toes. When she noticed the ten black wings behind Lilim's back, Hua Shi shuddered in fear as she knew about the strength of this demoness.

As a former sinner in Hell, it was natural for her to recognize a race that used to torture her.
