Chapter 2193
This was human nature. Everyone would feel jealous. When they saw that Xiao Chen, who had joined the sect at the same time as them, had spent more than a million Contribution Points in total, while they only had a few thousand Contribution Points, it was inevitable that they would feel a sense of injustice.
It was normal to be jealous. That was human nature. Xiao Chen heard the voices behind him as well. But he did not mind. Or, to put it another way, he did not care. Instead of wasting his energy and time explaining to those people, he would rather save the time for cultivation!
After exchanging for some heavenly resources that he needed from the Internal Affairs Hall, Xiao Chen returned to his courtyard and began to cultivate in seclusion. He was going to break through to the Second Heaven of the True Immortal Realm. Once he broke through, his battle prowess would increase significantly.
Big Yellow had gone back. To be more precise, he had returned to his master’s place to begin a long period of closed-door cultivation. The cultivation this time around would definitely be a huge leap for Big Yellow. Xiao Chen could not predict how many years it would take for Big Yellow to come out of closed-door cultivation, and he did not know how much Big Yellow’s cultivation base would have improved by then.
“I am the only one left.”
Xiao Chen sat down in his room with his legs crossed. Looking at the empty room, for the first time, he felt a sense of loneliness.
He had been with Da Huang since he was a kid. The two brothers had never been apart. Granted, they did not live together in the Immortal Sects. But at the very least, they knew that Da Huang was in another place, which gave them a sense of security. However, Da Huang was in closed-door cultivation. They might not see each other for years. Xiao Chen didn’t feel anything when he was comforting Da Huang. But now, he felt a sense of loneliness that he could not describe. At the same time, he thought of Su Qingyi and the others.
“I wonder how Qingyi and the others are doing in the Central Imperial Universe …” Xiao Chen began to miss them as well!
In the end, Xiao Chen reminisced for a long time before he calmed himself down and began to cultivate. Yes.
There was no point in missing them. The only thing he could do now was to make himself stronger. Only then would he have the strength to go back to the Immortal World to visit them in the future.
At the same time, in the Central Imperial Universe, Su Qingyi and the others were gathered together, talking about something. Every now and then, they would look up to the sky as if they were expecting something.
This was especially true for Su Qingyi. Other than looking up at the sky, she was stroking her slightly bulging belly.
“Big Sister Qingyi, you’ve already been pregnant for a few decades, and your belly is only showing a little. I reckon that you’ll have to wait for another few decades before the child in your belly is born.” Dongfang Qingwu and the other girls looked at Su Qingyi’s actions and teased her.
Back when Su Qingyi was pregnant, nobody expected that she would be pregnant for so long. Until now, there was no sign that the baby was going to be born.
It was only recently that Su Qingyi’s belly had become slightly bigger. If one didn’t look closely, they wouldn’t be able to tell that Su Qingyi’s belly had become bigger even if she wore loose clothes. That was why they felt that it would be at least a few decades before the child was born.
“Decades?
It shouldn’t be just that … “Su Qingyi shook her head. She could sense her own body’s condition the best. It had already been several decades since there was a slight change. It was definitely not enough for her to be born in a few decades.
“I really don’t know how extraordinary the child you’re pregnant with will be after he’s born. I’ve heard people say that the longer a child stays in the womb, the more heaven-defying his aptitude will be after he’s born. In the future, he’ll also become an extraordinary person. If this little fellow really stays in Sister Qingyi’s womb for a hundred years before he’s born, then he’ll definitely be extraordinary!”
Dongfang Qingwu and the others laughed again. They were really looking forward to the birth of the baby in Su Qingyi’s belly. They wanted to see how amazing this little guy would be. It actually took so long for it to be born!
“I only hope that he will be safe in the future and grow up healthily. As for whether he will become a great person or not, it doesn’t matter!”
Su Qingyi sighed softly. Even though her tone was flat, it revealed the greatest maternal love in the world. Actually, to every mother, it wasn’t important whether or not their child could become a great figure that drew the attention of the world. As long as their child was safe and healthy, it was enough.
“Hehe, Sister Qingyi’s wish will definitely come true!” Dongfang Qingwu and the others laughed.
Then, a few of them went over and touched Su Qingyi’s belly one by one. Then, they said slowly, “Little Nianchen, you have to be born soon. If you stay in your mother’s belly for too long, your mother will feel terrible!”
Yes, that’s right. For this unborn child, they had already named him Xiao Nianchen!
This meant that they missed Xiao Chen.
It was obvious how much they missed Xiao Chen.
Moreover, they were not surprised that the baby in Su Qingyi’s belly had not been born for dozens of years.
After all, although this kind of thing was rare, there were many records in history. Some gifted children would usually stay in their mother’s womb for a very long time before they were born. Not to mention a few decades, it was normal for them to stay for hundreds of years. Therefore, they were not worried at all. Now, the only thing they were worried about was Xiao Chen, who was far away in the Celestial World.
“I wonder how he is in the Celestial World …” When they thought of Xiao Chen, there was a hint of longing in their eyes. Then, they looked up at the sky.
This was because the Celestial World was at a higher level above their heads. Every time they looked up, their hearts seemed to be a little closer to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen, who was in the Celestial World, did not know how much Su Qingyi and the others missed him at this moment!
Moreover, he had named his unborn child such a yearning name.
If Xiao Chen knew about this, he would definitely find it difficult to control his inner impulse and find a way to go back to see them.
For Immortals, the saying “Cultivation knows no time” was more appropriate.
It had been more than half a year since Xiao Chen started his secluded cultivation to break through to the Second Heaven of the True Immortal Realm. Now, Xiao Chen had barely completed his cultivation and broken through to the Second Heaven of the True Immortal Realm. This was because he had exchanged a large number of Heaven and Earth Treasures from the Internal Affairs Hall!
Half a year had passed in the blink of an eye.
