A long time later...

As she looked at Xu Yue, who now had an extremely large stomach after over a century of being pregnant, as well as at the large soul that was excitedly moving around her stomach, unlike a normal baby, Hulli Jing couldn't help but touch her chin.

In only a few moments, Hulli Jing verified that the child in Xu Yue's stomach had not recovered its memories from its past life, which it did not, causing her to check if it had been possessed by someone, even though she knew that Xu Yue would definitely not allow that.

It was as Hulli Jing had expected, the child in Xu Yue's stomach was definitely not possessed, causing Hulli Jing to turn her attention to Xu Yue herself.

"You really couldn't have left her a bit of time to relax, she hasn't even been born yet?" asked Hulli Jing as she looked at Xu Yue and realized what had happened.

Hearing this, Xu Yue couldn't help but shake her head.

"If I let her relax while she hadn't been born, she would do nothing for over a hundred years and definitely become lazy, you should understand that I had her best interests in mind when I made her decision to help her begin cultivating," said Xu Yue, immediately trying to justify her decision.

As one might expect, though, Hulli Jing was definitely not buying Xu Yue's justification, and became even angrier upon hearing it.

"You know very well that only happened because you made sure to speed up her development beyond measure, you are very aware of the fact that although you spent even more time inside your mother, you only gained consciousness not long after being born, your mother probably did that, so you would have some time to relax, why couldn't you have done the same?" asked Hulli Jing as she approached Xu Yue and touched her stomach.

As she felt the little life within Xu Yue's stomach, which was earnestly cultivating, Hulli Jing couldn't help but feel pity towards her.

Hulli Jing could already see the fate of the little girl within Xu Yue, cultivating from the moment she was born to the moment she died, without even a little bit of respite.

Even though Hulli Jing was a little bit melodramatic, this did not mean that she was wrong, causing Xu Yue's words to her to make her speechless.

"I know I made a mistake, let the past be in the past..." said Xu Yue, causing Hulli Jing to point her finger towards her with a speechless expression on her face, as realization dawned on her.

"You..."

...

Looking at Ye Qiao, who was standing next to Xu Yue with a happy expression on her face, Hulli Jing, who originally expected that Ye Qiao would have a reaction similar to that of her own, couldn't help but grit her teeth, causing Ye Qiao to shake her head.

"Sister Jing, you, of all people, should know that being able to obtain an advantage like this is invaluable, Xu Yue clearly had the best interests of her child in mind..." said Ye Qiao as she looked at Hulli Jing, understanding the latter's point of view.

Compared to Hulli Jing, who had spent most of her life in seclusion, Ye Qiao clearly remembered the feeling of weakness and powerlessness that she felt back when her clan was destroyed, and felt like there was nothing wrong with what Xu Yue had done.

Hearing Ye Qiao's words, a smile couldn't help but emerge on Xu Yue's face, who was not sure what Ye Qiao's reaction to what she had done would be.

Now that Ye Qiao reacted positively, Xu Yue even felt ready to reveal the second piece of news that she had hidden from the two up until now.

Just as Hulli Jing was about to begin to start speaking to Ye Qiao, Xu Yue suddenly interrupted her.

"I have another announcement to make today," said Xu Yue, causing both Hulli Jing and Ye Qiao to quickly turn their attentions onto her.

Seeing the looks on the faces of the two, Xu Yue felt a little bit weird for a moment, before continuing to speak.

"I've decided the name of the child..." said Xu Yue, causing the two women to take in deep breaths as they stared at Xu Yue.

Seeing that neither of the two said anything, Xu Yue continued.

"I've decided to name her..."

"Xu Yue"

...

At that very moment, the eyes of Bai Hao, who was currently cultivating in seclusion, suddenly popped open, causing her to turn her eyes to what had just happened outside the cave abode she was in.

Just a moment ago, Bai Hao had just heard a loud explosion outside the cave abode, causing her to be somewhat concerned.

Even so, as Bai Hao checked what had happened, she was rather stupefied to find that nothing seemed to be wrong.

In fact, the mountain peak that Bai Hao's cave abode was on seemed to be even more silent than usual.

...

Unaware of the fact that they had disturbed Bai Hao, Hulli Jing and Ye Qiao simply stared at Xu Yue, who was standing silently in front of her.

Right now, a single thick vein could be seen on Hulli Jing's forehead, but a moment later, another one suddenly appeared, causing a similarly loud explosion to suddenly batter the sky.

After a few moments, Ye Qiao finally spoke, breaking the silence.

"Xu Yue, could you please... reconsider the name?" asked Ye Qiao, causing Xu Yue to shake her head and approach her.

"I've already named her long ago..." said Xu Yue, causing Ye Qiao to suddenly freeze and turn her eyes towards Xu Yue's stomach.

As she looked at the little girl within, Ye Qiao couldn't help but faintly smile, as a vein also appeared on her forehead.

"Xu Yue... that's a very good name..." mumbled Ye Qiao, quick to accept what had happened.

Not so quick was Hulli Jing, who was still frozen after hearing the name, two veins still clearly visible on her forehead.
