Liu Ruxue couldn't believe it; her divine sense swept over Qin Xu's tiny fetus again and again.
However, no matter how many times she examined it, she couldn't find anything unusual.
"That's not right."
"They all said that your son was born with congenital defects."
"Are they deceiving me?"
Liu Ruxue said in a low voice, thinking to herself that she must have been deceived.
But the next moment, she realized she was wrong.
"You have not been deceived by anyone."
"When this fetus was conceived, it was attacked by demonic energy and was truly born with congenital deficiencies."
"But by chance, he made up for his innate shortcomings and showed remarkable talent."
One by one, the clan elders stepped forward.
It is common knowledge that a fetus is born with congenital defects.
Many clan elders have personally witnessed this, so this cannot be faked.
"Tianlong, is this true?"
Liu Piaopiao remained calm as she looked at Qin Tianlong's face, observing his expression as she asked, "I don't want you to deliberately create a so-called genius."
Upon hearing this...
Qin Tianlong nodded slightly and said frankly, "Every word is true."
"To this day, we still don't know why a fetus can make up for congenital deficiencies."
“But, as Ru Shuang has already said.”
"As long as our child is born safely and grows up happily, that is the greatest happiness for us."
After a few words...
The sword cultivators in the courtyard looked at each other, even though they were still somewhat skeptical. However, they understood that Qin Tianlong had no reason to lie about such a matter.
After all, if the fetus is too useless, the parents may deliberately create the illusion that the fetus is a genius.
Once the baby is born, the truth will easily come out.
At that time, both Qin Tianlong and Liu Rushuang's reputations would be affected.
Liu Ruxue's face turned ugly. She had originally thought she could take this opportunity to mock her younger sister.
Unexpectedly, Liu Rushuang's son had no problems at all.
"Wait, this is... a demonic fetus?"
Suddenly, Liu Ruxue sensed a strange aura. When she probed deeper with her divine sense, she discovered that there was actually a demonic fetus inside Qin Xu's body.
"What good is it if congenital deficiencies can be compensated for?"
"I just checked, and it seems your child is carrying a demonic fetus?"
"Once the demonic fetus grows, your child will likely have a hard time surviving."
Liu Ruxue narrowed her eyes and said with a boastful tone, "It seems that you are still not as good as me, little sister."
"Did you know that my newborn son activated the Primordial God King Body?"
"Moreover, it triggered countless extraordinary phenomena at the time of its birth."
Upon hearing this, Liu Rushuang's expression remained unchanged.
She has never liked to compare herself to others, and moreover, her belief has always been firm: as long as the baby in her womb can survive, that's all that matters.
"The demonic fetus is a minor problem."
"Once he is born, the problem will be easily solved."
"Don't you know, eldest sister?"
Liu Rushuang responded calmly, making no attempt to hide her thoughts: "Eldest sister, you've always liked to compete with me since we were little."
"We're married now, and you still want to compete with me."
"Even having children is a competition!"
"Do you really have to compete with me to see who's better?"
Upon hearing this...
Liu Ruxue's face turned ugly. Thinking of everything she had been through, she said coldly, "That's right, I want to compete with you!"
At this moment, a tense atmosphere permeated the air.
The surrounding sword cultivators seemed to understand why Liu Ruxue had such an attitude.
However, the cultivators from the Qin family all showed expressions of confusion.
In their view, Liu Ruxue was Liu Rushuang's older sister, and the two should have a very good relationship.
Now, the two sisters appear to be at each other's throats, as if a fight is about to break out at any moment.
"I will never forget what happened back then."
"I was originally the eldest sister, and I also showed some talent."
"But everyone in the Sword Pavilion likes you and thinks you are the most talented sword cultivator!"
"Even my parents said that the position of the future master of the Sword Pavilion will only belong to you."
"I just want to prove that I'm no worse than you!"
Liu Ruxue's eyes burned with intensity as she spoke her innermost thoughts.
She is clearly the eldest sister, and her talent is equally impressive.
Why is it that all the affection falls on Liu Rushuang?
"So it was jealousy!"
Looking at the situation outside, Qin Xu finally understood why his aunt had been targeting his mother ever since she came to the Qin family.
Liu Rushuang fell silent, because the situation Liu Ruxue described was beyond her control.
She was once extremely talented, and in just three hundred years, she became a saint-level being.
Such talent would rank among the top twenty in the entire Great Wilderness Spirit Realm.
"Ru Xue, that's enough!"
"Your sister will become a saint in three hundred years."
"And it took you more than six hundred years to barely become a saint."
“Back then, her talent far surpassed yours, so it was perfectly normal for us to regard her as our successor.”
Liu Piaopiao frowned; she hadn't expected Liu Ruxue to say such a thing.
If we're talking behind closed doors in Jian Ge, it doesn't really matter.
However, if Liu Ruxue and Liu Rushuang were to have a falling out in front of so many Qin family cultivators, it would only make them a laughingstock.
"Is that enough?"
"What's enough?!"
Liu Ruxue showed no sign of stopping. She stared at Liu Rushuang's face and said bluntly, "Liu Rushuang, my talent is not as good as yours."
"But I gave birth to a good son!"
"My son is far more talented than your son!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have activated your seventh mission!]
[Because the Sword Saint's mother was injured, her family members came to visit her. Among them was Liu Ruxue, your Sword Saint's mother's older sister, who harbored great hostility towards your mother.]
[You must demonstrate your swordsmanship talent to gain Liu Ruxue's approval and reconcile her with the Sword Saint's mother to complete the mission!]
[Rewards for successful mission: Primordial Immortal-Slaying Sword*1, Immortal Healer's Legacy*1, Nine-Turn Golden Elixir*1]
A pleasant system voice sounded.
Qin Xu was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.
He didn't expect that he would be able to reactivate the mission in just a few days.
The seventh task!
He must gain Liu Ruxue's approval.
"Hahaha, as long as I do it like in the last mission, I will use my sword intent to attack Liu Ruxue."
"Then I will surely gain her approval!"
"If she knew that my talent was no less than that of her son, she might reconcile with my mother."
Qin Xu's eyes lit up, and without any hesitation, he directly used the Tai Xu Sword Intent.
A burst of sword intent erupted and attacked Liu Ruxue.
