Time passed quickly.
For Cultivators, ten months were but a flick of a finger.
Perhaps because his body had shrunk, Shuo Heng spent a lot of time sleeping every day.
004 said that this was a normal state due to his body still developing, and he didn't need to worry.
Shuo Heng indeed didn't worry.
He spent his days in his consciousness space looking at data, watching what his parents were doing outside, and then going into hibernation.
His life was quite comfortable.
Even when he finished reading all the data a few days before he was due to be born, 004, fearing he would be bored, specially found some film and television works from other worlds for him to watch.
Shuo Heng now had a general understanding of the authority and functions of these Systems, including the countless Great Worlds under the jurisdiction of the Main System.
The cultural works among them were as numerous as the stars, and Shuo Heng watched with great interest.
Lord, you are about to be born.
It's already time? That's good.
Shuo Heng smiled.
He was very much looking forward to life in the Cultivation world.
—
After Yan Qing finished her daily portion of Spirit Medicine medicinal cuisine, she felt the signs of impending labor.
She suddenly gripped Shuo Ya's large hand beside her, the slight panic in her eyes making Shuo Ya feel a pang of heartache.
No matter how powerful a Cultivator Yan Qing herself was, she was becoming a mother for the first time, and Shuo Ya deeply understood his wife's nervousness.
Not to mention Yan Qing, even he himself was sweating in his palms from anxiety.
Someone! My wife is in labor!
Shuo Ya tightened his grip on Yan Qing's hand, giving her firm reassurance: "Wife, it's alright, you and the child will be safe and sound."
Yan Qing already felt intense cramping pain in her abdomen. She endured the pain and smiled, nodding at Shuo Ya, before being helped into the delivery room.
...
Outside the delivery room, it was very lively.
Not only was Shuo Ya waiting anxiously, but Ninth Ancestor Shuo Gu had also arrived and was currently sitting on a chair nearby, drinking tea.
Besides these two, another man brought a child and flew over from a distance.
The man stepped on a pure white auspicious cloud, which disappeared after he landed.
Ninth Ancestor, Elder Brother.
Shuo Yang, Shuo Ya's half-brother.
Because Yan Qing did not wish to see guests during her pregnancy, Shuo Yang did not come to disturb her, but he was still very concerned about his sister-in-law and unborn nephew, so various Heaven And Earth Treasures were continuously sent into his Elder Brother's storeroom.
Second Brother and Xiao Ye are here, sit down.
Shuo Ya waved his hand, not caring about rules at this moment.
Shuo Yang nodded, motioning for his son to sit down beside him.
Shuo Yang's son, Shuo Qianye, was almost six years old this year, nearing the age to Cultivate.
He appeared quiet and composed, with an elegant and gentle temperament at such a young age, already showing signs of becoming a distinguished Young Master in the future.
At this moment, Shuo Qianye looked expectantly in the direction of the delivery room.
Father, will Auntie give birth to a younger brother or a younger sister?
Shuo Yang raised his hand and ruffled his head: "Father doesn't know either."
Shuo Qianye nodded and did not continue to ask.
...
Just then, the sky suddenly surged with wind and clouds.
A Thunder Dragon vaguely coiled within the clouds.
With thunder as its bones and wind as its form.
Its pair of Dragon Eyes, formed by wind and thunder, gazed towards the Shuo Family, astonishing everyone within thousands of miles.
This is, a Heaven And Earth Phenomenon?!
Shuo Ya stood up abruptly, looking at the coiling Wind and Thunder Dragon in the sky with excitement and surprise.
Wah—
When the baby's cries echoed through the sky, the Thunder Dragon opened its mouth and spat out a ball of cyan-purple light.
That ball of light floated gracefully in everyone's sight, finally passing through the ridge of the Shuo Family's main hall and landing on the newborn baby's brow.
Boom!
The power of wind and thunder surged instantly, as if in celebration.
Shuo Gu's lips curved into a genuine smile.
First a sword bone, then Feng Lei's Body.
His Shuo Family, in this golden Great Age, shall flourish!
—
At that moment, the newborn Shuo Heng was gently held in Yan Qing's arms.
Her face was still a little pale. Although a Cultivator's bodily functions were excellent, and her recovery ability was also very strong due to Spiritual Qi, childbirth was ultimately somewhat damaging to the body, so she still needed careful recuperation for a period of time.
Good child, so cute.
Yan Qing smiled, lowering her head to rub Shuo Heng's tiny nose.
Aside from crying a few times right after he was born, Shuo Heng had not cried again, merely opening his eyes and curiously looking around.
The light in his eyes softened Yan Qing's heart.
Shuo Heng was a very cute little baby, with a pair of round, ink-black eyes, and a Wind and Thunder Mark of intertwining cyan and purple imprinted on his brow.
Perhaps because he had just triggered a Heaven And Earth Phenomenon, the Wind and Thunder Mark was faintly glowing at this moment.
Suddenly, the room door was pushed open forcefully, and Shuo Ya's figure rushed in like a gust of wind.
Wife!
Shuo Ya threw himself by the bed, embracing Yan Qing, and looked her up and down: "How are you, are you alright?"
Yan Qing chuckled: "I'm fine, Husband, aren't you going to look at our child?"
Yes, yes, I must.
Seeing that Yan Qing was truly fine, Shuo Ya then turned his gaze to the child in her arms.
With that look, he met Shuo Heng's eyes directly.
...
For some reason, Shuo Heng felt his heart pound violently.
Although he had seen the appearance of these two people on the screen every day, this was the first time he had truly seen them with his own eyes.
The man was tall and handsome, the woman gentle and virtuous.
The scene, beautiful as a dream, made Shuo Heng sigh softly in his heart.
Indeed, humans are, after all, social creatures. Even though his emotions were much more detached than ordinary people's, kinship was always the most touching thing.
Ah...Eeyore...
Shuo Heng pretended to be ignorant and reached out his small hands to the two of them.
As expected of my son, so cute.
Before birth, it was difficult to determine due to the obstruction of the Spirit Source Crystal, but after birth, one only needed to sweep with their Divine Sense to know the child's gender.
Husband, let's give our child a name?
Shuo Ya looked at Shuo Heng's round eyes, and then thought of the child's talent, a smile playing on his lips.
Feng Lei's Body, unparalleled in the world.
I hope that in the future, he can soar through the Nine Heavens, bear the balance and hold the cauldron, and ascend to the peak of the universe!
Since that is the case, then he shall be called — Shuo Heng.
Yan Qing raised her hand and touched her son's tender white cheek: "Shuo Heng, Xiao Heng, you have a name now."
Shuo Heng outwardly continued to look at the two with a bewildered expression, but secretly chuckled in his heart.
Shuo Heng.
Is it fate?
Lord, it has been detected that you have been born. The Qi Luck Eye has now fully developed, and you can use it at any time.
Shuo Heng secretly raised an eyebrow, feeling the warmth in his eyes, and activated his ability to look at Shuo Ya and Yan Qing.
The purple light was brilliant and long-lasting.
Lord, purple already signifies a person with Luck.
Shuo Heng was noncommittal.
