Rebirth

Inside a spacious and luxurious mansion, was a room decorated with great splendour. Outside this room, a large group of people had gathered. A young male paced relentlessly in front of the doors, his face was filled with anxiety and worry. He looked to be thirty years of age, and he gave off a majestic aura. Although he had aged a little, one could still see the handsome youth that he once was. He was wearing a gold-lined silver tunic, which added to his handsome appearance, and he was surrounded by an aura similar to that of a host. His face was resolute, even his eyebrows were knitted together, almost forming a single lump.

Three meters outside of the room, a group of 30 people, ranging from young to old, were all lined up nervously. The elders of the group looked to be 60 to 70 years old already, with white hair all over their wrinkled faces. However, despite their age, their eyes could still make people shiver and quake in fear from the godly lights that flickered within. Judging by the glow from their eyes, the amount of fear they could inflict on others was so much that people wouldn't take them to be frail old men at all, but rather robust and healthy middle-aged men with the strengths of a tiger and dragon combined. The rest of the men were all-around 30 to 40 years old, with imposing auras and eyes that revealed nothing. It was obvious with only one glance that this was not a group of normal people.

And within the room in front of them, the sounds of a woman crying in pain could be heard.

"Madam, keep on pushing, the baby is almost out. I repeat, the baby is almost out…" An elderly but impatient voice could be heard through the pain-filled echoes. Those who could hear the voice could tell the owner of the voice was an elderly woman.

Outside the room, the middle-aged man who was anxiously pacing about, abruptly froze in place and spoke with a sense of urgency, "Ai…this has been going on for an entire day and night already, how has Sophia not given birth? If this drags on for any longer, I'm afraid to even Sophia will face an unfavourable situation." Even the man's voice was filled with never-ending anxiety.

"My lord, please don't worry too much. Madam will definitely be fine. You forget that Madam Sophia is a Celestial King." A white-haired elder spoke with a tone of confidence, but even his face could not hide the look of worry on it.

"Ai…" The lord clad in a white tunic began to sigh again repeatedly; the worry and anxiety on his face did not decrease even the slightest amount.

Eventually, after the men outside had waited for two more hours, and an excited voice came from within the room. "My lord, my lord! Madam Sophia has given birth! She has given birth and is safe! And so is the boy!" The amount of emotion in the voice was stirring up excitement throughout the house.
