Chapter 415: Chapter 413: Swapping Identities
Fan Qiqi herself was extraordinarily delicate and beautiful, with a face like a lotus bud and skin as white as the first snow, pure and vivacious. However, after one visit to the Asura Realm, she was attacked by an Evil Divine Beast, and her divine body was buried there. Now this body she inhabited was her sister Fan Caicai’s after her Divine Soul returned.
Fan Caicai was her twin sister, born without a soul, merely an empty shell, with no Fertility Strength, and her appearance was far less attractive than her own body… but there had been no better or more suitable body available, so she had to make do with this one for the time being.
Yet, upon seeing Sally’s face and learning of her Fertility Strength, Fan Qiqi immediately harbored thoughts of seizing her body.
However, the wedding palanquin had arrived. To seize a body, you must make the other party willingly exchange bodies with you. Forced possession was still a strain for her Divine Soul, weakened from the Evil Divine Beast’s attack, and she needed more time to recover.
The wedding palanquin was carried by two puppet bearers, without a band for the groom’s procession and not even a matchmaker. Fan Qiqi got onto the palanquin, and at her request, Sally followed her in as well.
The palanquin looked small from the outside, but inside it was quite spacious, about half the size of a room.
Sally sat on a wooden stool below Fan Qiqi, eyes on her nose and nose on her heart, motionless.
Fan Qiqi scrutinized her continuously and finally formed a seal with her hands, setting up a sound Barrier within the palanquin. “Xiaoyan, how long have you had the Offspring System bound? How many children have you had?”
Sally replied, “Not long, twenty.”
“That few, huh? I’ve heard that a powerful Offspring System can produce over a thousand. But that’s for ordinary Beast Clan members. For Divine Beasts, it’s a matter of luck.”
“Indeed.”
“By the way, this is a Divine Stone Bracelet. I’ll give it to you. It’s worth two hundred Lower-grade Divine Crystals.”
“Thank you.” Sally reached out and took it, finding the colorful stones pretty attractive.
The universal currency of the Divine Realm is the Divine Crystal, divided into upper, middle, and lower grades, with a hundredfold difference between each. Two hundred Lower-grade Divine Crystals amount to two Mid-grade Divine Crystals.
“This thing doesn’t contain any divinity, roughly equivalent to the rain flower stones of the Beast World, not valuable.” Xiaomei told Sally.
Sally replied, “I know, Xiaoqi has a lot of these stones, she exchanged many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for them from Little Shiwu.”

“Little Shiwu likes pretty things, regardless of their value.” Xiaomei replied.
“You don’t like to talk much, do you?” Fan Qiqi asked Sally.
Sally responded, “Hmm.”
“That’s good too, talk less if the Divine Lord graces you with his presence.”
“If the Divine Lord really is so powerful, would he be deceived by our body-swap trick?” Sally asked.
Fan Qiqi said, “Of course. We need to switch identities first. I know a Divine Art that can change appearances. I’ll give you a new face according to my former appearance. After the child is born, you can leave, and I’ll return my face to its original appearance. Understood?”
“Hmm.” Sally nodded.
“Xiaomei, would you say your skills are better, or are hers?”
“Is that even a question, obviously Xiaomei’s skills are better.”
Fan Qiqi changed Sally’s face to her own previous appearance, and she took off the red bridal gown, watching Sally put it on.
“Because you are a Noble Consort, that is, the spouse of a Divine Lord, you can’t wear a lavish bridal gown with phoenix patterns and pearls. After the offspring are born, there will be another grand ceremony to bestow the title of goddess.”
“Oh.” No wonder the bridal gown felt so cheap—just a piece of red cloth. The seams were coarse, the waist tied with a thin red cord, and the sleeve edges were fraying.
Even in the Rat Tribe, when getting married, there was a bright red bridal gown. Even if it was made of rough fabric, it was stitched properly with all the necessary finery, not a single detail missing.
This is still the Divine Realm… the world that was once quite mysterious in Sally’s heart had thoroughly lost its mystique.
The red shoes didn’t fit; Fan Qiqi’s feet were larger than Sally’s.
Sally could only tear a corner of her dress that didn’t matter, stuff it into the shoes, and make do with wearing them.
“With such a beautiful face, even in ragged clothes, you still have the charm of a goddess,” Fan Qiqi was extremely satisfied with Sally’s current appearance.
Isn’t it supposed to be about charisma and figure? Sally didn’t speak, just sat quietly.
An old man who looked like a steward arranged for the bridal palanquin to enter the Kunhuang Divine Monarch Mansion through the back door.
Covered with a red veil, Sally got down from the palanquin by herself, without needing any assistance from Fan Qiqi.
Fan Qiqi didn’t bother to offer her help either, carrying herself with the air of a goddess; even dressed as a maid, she held her head high, with her shoulders back, not at all resembling a servant girl.
The steward glanced at her, then led Sally, saying, “This lowly one is named Sun Fuxiang, in charge of all matters, big and small, in the Divine Lord Residence.”
“Thanks for your trouble, Uncle Xiang,” Sally replied.
Upon hearing her call him Uncle Xiang, Sun Fuxiang’s expression lightened, “Noble Consort need not be so courteous. Watch your step, this way, please.”
“Is the Divine Monarch in the residence? Can the wedding be completed tonight?” Fan Qiqi asked Sun Fuxiang.
Sun Fuxiang replied, “Unfortunately, the Divine Monarch has left the residence on business and won’t be back for half a month. As for the feast, we’ll have to wait until the Divine Monarch returns. Please don’t take offense, Noble Consort.”
“It’s alright, we can hold the ceremony after the child is born,” Sally replied.
Sun Fuxiang looked at Sally with newfound respect; the delicately-raised goddess not only truly wore simple wedding attire and rode in a shabby bridal palanquin, she even married over without a wedding feast. Such endurance, if she truly could bear the Divine Monarch a son or daughter in the future, would be a great fortune.
Sally asked, “Has the Divine Monarch had any wives before?”
Sun Fuxiang replied, “No, the Divine Monarch has never married. However, there are several beautiful women sent by other Divine Monarchs in the back court, whom you will meet in the future.”
Sally: “Sent by other Divine Monarchs?”
Sun Fuxiang said, “The Divine Monarch hasn’t been intimate with them, so it all depends on everyone’s abilities to stir the Divine Monarch’s emotions.”
“We are officially married into the Divine Lord Residence, and we still have to compete for favor with them?” Fan Qiqi said indignantly, as if it was a disgrace to her.
Officially married? Sally was speechless… Considering the wedding attire and the palanquin, it was more like she was sent over for free.
The competition was all about who could first bear the Divine Monarch a child, then transform from an ugly duckling into a phoenix bird… Hmm! Her Manman would surely become a stunningly gorgeous Phoenix Bird.
Nevertheless, she was here to earn points. After failing the task, she would return to the Beast World.
“Not only from Yaochi Mountain, but beautiful women have also been sent from Dream Flower Valley, Longquan Divine Mansion, Yuehua Mountain, Goldscale Sea,” he continued.
Fan Qiqi was stunned.
Sally said to Xiaomei, “This isn’t a wedding at all, this is a selection process.”
Xiaomei replied, “It seems this Divine Monarch You Hao has brought the traditions of choosing consorts from the Human Clan to the Divine Realm. What do you plan to do, Host?”
Sally asked: “How long without substantial progress in the task will it be considered a failure?”
Xiaomei understood Sally’s intention, “Three months.”
