Chapter 1337 Being A Dad
Kang Xue brought an actual doctor to give an actual check-up. This was the first time a stranger met Tang Xiulan, and he looked nervous at the sight of a worried Emperor.
The Doctor looked at the baby and took a sneak peek at The Emperor. For someone who had been staying in The Tang Empire for over six months. He had heard all the famous stories about The Emperor\'s temper. How easily his Emperor executed people and so on. The stories did not help him to ease up his nervousness for the incoming check-up.
The Doctor sat next to the bed and placed the stethoscope on the baby\'s chest if there were any abnormalities. Division Leader Kang Xue told him nothing about the situation, so he started it with the basics. From the chest down to the belly, he did not find an abnormality. He put away the stethoscope and checked the pulse. Normal, everything was normal with the baby, then he looked into Tang Xiulan\'s eyes.
He was taken aback because her eyes were different from normal human eyes. The slit, violet eyes were staring at him. She looked at him curiously instead of crying.
The Doctor turned toward Kang Xue, "I can\'t find anything wrong, Division Head Kang. She\'s healthy and fine. If it\'s really necessary, we can do a blood test."
"There\'s no need," Tang Shaoyang was the one who responded. He called the Doctor just to make sure that Tang Xiulan was fine. He might be overreacted but he just needed to make sure that everything was fine. It was not easy for him to have kids even though he currently had sixteen women. Ava was the only one who managed to bear his hard work among the sixteen women. That was what made him extra careful when he found something different in his daughter. He wanted to make sure the level did not affect her health.
The discovery of Tang Xiulan\'s level caused an alarm between the girls. Everyone gathered to check up on the little girl.
"She\'s fine. Maybe the level only affects her growth. You can go to continue your trial," Kang Xue tapped Tang Shaoyang\'s shoulder, "I will stay with her for the next twenty-four hours."
Tang Shaoyang had been entering the battle trial every day since he started it, and he managed to gather 22 God Shards in three days. He spent one to two hours in the trial for the last three days, and he had not yet entered the trial for today after the Public Execution.
Tang Shaoyang shook his head, "I will stay with you for now," He put away his worries and came to Xiulan. Even though the baby might not understand his worries, he still put a smile on his face for the baby.
Everything looked fine, and it was a bit of a relief but he did not want to leave Tang Xiulan. He wanted to stay with her and observe her. That was his thought, he would stay and observe Xiulan for at least a few days.
Tang Shaoyang carried Xiulan and walked to their favorite spot where they could see everything below. The ongoing festival turned the capital lively as if there had never been a war before. Tang Xiulan snuck onto his neck as he gave a gentle rub on her back. She loved the rub, and soon, she fell asleep. It was past her nap time.
[Why are you so concerned about her level? Isn\'t it a good thing that she\'s born with a high level?] Avyn was confused as to why it caused quite chaos just because Tang Xiulan was level 10.
\'Because she was supposed to be level 0, just like the other babies.\'
[Yes, I know. That\'s why I say, isn\'t it a good thing that she is level 10? You can\'t compare your baby with the other babies. Are you going to compare the dragon baby with the crab baby that you eat almost every day?]
\'What do you mean? Of course not. Why would I compare a dragon with a crab?\' Tang Shaoyang rolled his eyes. He thought Avyn tried to cheer up, but it did not work if that was the case. He was not amused by her analogy.
[But we are Beast, no?] Avyn did not mean to cheer Tang Shaoyang, but tried to tell him it was normal for Tang Xiulan to be level 10, [What I am trying to say is, Tang Xiulan is normal and fine. Don\'t compare your baby with other human babies. Tang Xiulan clearly inherited your bloodline and also the elf bloodline of her mother. And you are not a normal human anymore, but Tang. A superior race than those humans. Do you understand what I mean?]
Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow.
[What She tries to say is that you can\'t use the other human babies as standard because she is different from them in the first place.] Vandir explained further.
[That\'s right. Like a dragon, for example, we were born different from the other beast. I was born as an Epic Rank, and I reached the Demi-God Rank after the coming-of-age ceremony even though I barely killed any monster. I reach the Demi-God Rank when I become an adult dragon. Your baby is still growing, and you should not be surprised if Tang Xiulan reaches level 11 tomorrow.]
Tang Shaoyang understood when Avyn explained it like that. He thought about it, and it made sense. Tang Xiulan was indeed different from the babies he checked earlier. She was not a human, but the descendant of Tang and Elf. That put Tang Shaoyang at ease, but he still did not want to leave Tang Xiulan. The lingering concern from the previous false alarm was still there. He could not bear to leave, if… If anything happened later on.
After sensing his daughter was in a deep slumber. He brought her back to her room and placed her on a more comfortable bed.
The girls watched everything from the side with a smile. They were concerned with the level 10 baby, but not as much as Tang Shaoyang. Especially after a Doctor\'s check-up. They smiled because it was a rare sight, and they got to see a new side of their husband.
Tang Shaoyang then sat with the other girls and explained what Avyn just told him. He told them why Tang Xiulan was level 10.
"That could be the case," Kang Xue nodded understandingly, but she turned toward Ava, "What about the Elf\'s babies?" It might help if they had more samples from the other races. She intended to ask Sylvia after, The Moonlight Rabbit, about their baby\'s situation as well.
"We don\'t know. We never thought of using Detection on our babies, but now I remember it. By one year old, Virion was level 49 while Arbane was level 24. It is different for each kid, and we consider it as a genius if our children are over level 40 by one-year-old," Ava rubbed her chin, nodding her head. It was a tradition to use Detection to one-year-old kid to find their level. They just did it, never questioning the tradition or investigating where the level came from.
Kang Xue did not need to ask Sylvia because the other girls including Tang Shaoyang turned toward her.
"I don\'t know. I will ask Father now," Sylvia got up and left in a hurry. She knew that this issue bothered Tang Shaoyang, so she wanted to help as much as possible.
"I think we have cracked the case. It\'s normal for a baby to gain level if we look at it from the Elf\'s perspective," Zhang Mengyao turned toward Tang Shaoyang, "Xiulan will be fine. Leave her with us and take your daily trial."
Tang Shaoyang shook his head, "No, I will stay with her for a while." He insisted that he wanted to stay with her daughter.
The girls smiled at how stubborn their husband was. They ended up staying together for a little longer after the false alarm before returning to their post. Delia, Sylvia, and Li Na left for the festival while the other girls returned for their work, leaving Tang Shaoyang and Ava in the room.
*** ***
The following morning, Tang Shaoyang stood next to the bed, looking at her sleeping daughter. After an eventful day yesterday, he stayed with his daughter all day, pulling all-nighters. That was right, he had not slept since yesterday. He stood there nervously as it was the time to use Detection on her daughter. He used the skill on his daughter.

——————————
As everyone predicted, Tang Xiulan\'s level increased, and she was now level 13. Even though he predicted correctly that her level was part of her growth. It did not make him completely relieved from the situation. After his daughter woke up, Tang Shaoyang called the same Doctor to check on Tang Xiulan. He wanted to make sure there was nothing out of place because of her level.
The Doctor reported the same result as yesterday. Tang Xiulan was extremely healthy, nothing wrong with her. Despite everything, Tang Shaoyang ended up staying with her daughter for three days, inseparable.
