Unaware of the troublesome matters that the little blade of grass that she had found had gotten herself involved in, Xu Yue, whose stomach had increased in size quite a bit over the past few years, couldn't help but let out a faint sigh.
If at first, being pampered and cared was somewhat novel, it certainly got old after a few years, especially as the novelty of being pregnant wore out for Xu Yue.
In truth, right now Xu Yue felt like going into seclusion and not coming out until her child would be born, of course, Xu Yue knew that neither Hulli Jing nor Ye Qiao nor her parents, would let her do something like.
Even though she could technically ignore their wishes, Xu Yue did not feel enough desire to go into seclusion to do something like that.
"A mere hundred years feels like a million..." mumbled Xu Yue with her hand placed on her chin.
The very next moment though, Xu Yue froze, before turning to her stomach, which seemed completely unchanged at first glance.
Of course, Xu Yue was not focused on the physical appearance of her stomach, instead, she was currently staring at the tiny soul which had just appeared inside of it.
As she looked at the tiny soul in her stomach, Xu Yue couldn't help but smile before quickly taking out over a dozen things from her spatial rings.
The things that Xu Yue had taken out were, of course, the gentlest soul-nourishing treasures that she could find in there, which had no effect on Xu Yue herself.
As soon as those treasures appeared around Xu Yue, the little soul inside of Xu Yue's stomach, which was previously sitting in place obediently, suddenly began moving.
The moment the soul began moving, Xu Yue suddenly flinched, becoming somewhat worried for a brief moment, causing her to suddenly conduct several divinization in an instant.
But even though all the divination showed that there was nothing wrong, Xu Yue still felt a little bit insecure, causing her to begin casting several other spells onto the tiny lifeforms that had just managed to form, including several fate blessings.
...
Several years later,
Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings.
As she looked at Bai Hao, who was standing outside of Xu Yue's cave abode with a somewhat bored look on her face, Hulli Jing couldn't help but become somewhat interested in what had happened, causing her, who was just about to enter the cave abode herself, to suddenly speak out.
"Hao'er, did Xu Yue get bored with you?" asked Hulli Jing as she let out a chuckle, causing Bai Hao to shake her head.
"Xu Yue tasked me with guarding her cave abode, she told me that I should allow nobody to disturb her, as she has something important to do," said Bai Hao with a smug look on her face.
Hearing this, Hulli Jing suddenly appeared behind Bai Hao and entered the cave abode without giving the girl any time to react.
Then, under the stupefied eyes of Bai Hao, a hand holding a little fox emerged from the cave abode, before quickly throwing out the fox and closing the formation behind her, leaving only a shocked Bai Hao behind
...
After throwing Hulli Jing out of her cave abode, Xu Yue quickly sat back down onto her bed with a smile on her face.
"Yue'er, repeat after me, 'Xu Yue'."
Although there was nobody inside the room with her, merely a few moments later, an extremely young voice sounded within Xu Yue's mind.
'Xi Ie.'
"Repeat after me, 'Xu Yue'."
"Xi Iie."
"Repeat after me..."
That's right, after nourishing the soul that had formed within her stomach for a while, Xu Yue then began slowly communicating with the tiny being, and teaching her how to communicate with her.
Of course, to help an unborn baby be able to communicate with her, Xu Yue had to spend a large amount of resources meant to nourish the soul, one that could allow one thousand cultivators to reach the Soul Nourishment realm.
But even though this was the case, since these resources allowed Xu Yue to talk to her daughter before the latter had even been born, Xu Yue felt as though this was completely worth it.
In fact, if Xu Yue had to spend a million times more resources to achieve this, she was completely willing to do so.
"Repeat after me, 'Xu Yue'."
"Xuu Yue," said the yet to be born Xu Yue who was still within the stomach of her mother.
As soon as Xu Yue heard her daughter, who she had decided to name Xu Yue, speak her own name, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"That's my girl..." said Xu Yue as she touched her stomach with a smile on her face, causing the little Xu Yue to let out a slight giggle.
"Xiao Yue, repeat after me, 'Hulli Jing'."
Although Xu Yue had managed to get Xu Yue(Xiao Yue) to say her own name, she knew that her work was not yet done.
Firstly, Xu Yue would teach her daughter how to say several names.
Then, she would teach her how to properly speak, allowing her to reach the final part of her plan.
Of course, Xu Yue's final plan was to allow her daughter to begin cultivating before she was even born, allowing her to gain an edge over her peers.
Of course, Xu Yue would not blindly teach her daughter how to cultivate, instead, she would first ask for advice from her ancestor, to not harm the little girl.
At worst, Xu Yue would only teach Xu Yue a Soul Cultivation Technique, so that the latter could cultivate her soul while still in Xu Yue's stomach.
Aware of the fact that Hulli Jing might not allow her to burden her daughter with cultivation from such a young ago, Xu Yue decided to not allow anyone inside of her cave abode until she taught her daughter properly.
