Although there are some pills in the cultivation world that can kill an unborn child, generally no one would do that.
This place places too much emphasis on cause and effect, and such actions would be condemned by Heaven.
Gu Qingqiu has not yet reached the Golden Core stage. If she really does this, the child will inevitably become her inner demon, causing her great suffering during her tribulation.
Besides... this is her and Jiang Chenxin's child, she can't bring herself to do it.
But what should she do now? How should she bring it up with Jiang Chenxin?
People are always very sensitive to the emotional changes of the people they like, and Jiang Chenxin quickly noticed that something was wrong with Gu Qingqiu. "Thirteen, what's wrong with you? Tell me what's on your mind, don't keep it to yourself."
Gu Qingqiu thought for a moment and replied, "Let me think about how to bring it up with you."
Jiang Chenxin was surprised that Gu Qingqiu actually had something to say to him. He felt a little uneasy. First, he reflected on whether he had done anything to upset her recently. Then he questioned himself whether he had been pushing her too hard. He even started to wonder if Gu Qingqiu had been cooped up in the cave for too long or if her cultivation had not improved and she was in a bad mood.
[Host, I have just examined your body, and there are no other signs of life within you.]
The male protagonist system's sudden appearance saved Gu Qingqiu from her wild thoughts, making her feel relieved but also a little regretful.
Thankfully it wasn't true... but this is a warning to her; she can't keep slacking off like this.
After about half an hour, Gu Qingqiu finally calmed down. She walked to Jiang Chenxin's side and said, "I want your essence blood."
"Cough..." Jiang Chenxin coughed violently in fright. "Thirteen? What happened to you all of a sudden?"
"Are you going to give it to me or not?" Gu Qingqiu's tone even carried a hint of determination and tragic resolve. "I need the Chilong Flame right now."
Jiang Chenxin hesitated for a moment, "But you haven't reached the Golden Core stage yet..."
"The Golden Core stage is just the ideal state. I'm already at the peak of Foundation Establishment, just one step away from the Golden Core stage." Gu Qingqiu rummaged through her treasure bag. "I happen to have some pills here that can suppress fire-type marks. There shouldn't be any problems. You're here, aren't you? Are you going to give them to me or not?"
"Here, I'll give it to you." Jiang Chenxin said helplessly, "But you have to follow my instructions during the process. I will stop if any unexpected situation occurs, and you are not allowed to be stubborn."
Gu Qingqiu readily agreed, "Okay, let's go."
"Wait, I need to tell you beforehand... this process might take a while..." Jiang Chenxin's tone was even somewhat unsteady.
"I know, it's normal for it to take ten days or half a month." Gu Qingqiu had already made ample mental preparations.
“Not only…” Jiang Chenxin’s voice even softened, “It will take forty-nine days…”
"What?" Just hearing that number made Gu Qingqiu feel weak and dizzy, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Forty-nine days it is!" Any later and it would probably be too late.
When dual cultivation became a task that had to be completed, Gu Qingqiu felt that she could no longer feel joy, and even became much more restrained.
A powerful internal force flowed between Gu Qingqiu and Jiang Chenxin, filling the cave with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Gu Qingqiu felt a scorching heat surging in her dantian, and could faintly hear a dragon's roar, as if she had resonated with the dragon.
"Thirteen," Jiang Chenxin said, "Come here, I want to kiss you."
Gu Qingqiu hesitated for a moment, but still obediently leaned down and kissed Jiang Chenxin's lips.
But Jiang Chenxin was not satisfied with this. He raised his head and kissed Gu Qingqiu's lips, forcefully invading them with his nimble tongue.
Gu Qingqiu could only open her mouth and cooperate with Jiang Chenxin's actions.
After a while, Gu Qingqiu felt a fishy taste spreading in her mouth, making her feel nauseous, but Jiang Chenxin blocked her mouth, so she could only swallow it with difficulty.
Gu Qingqiu immediately felt a burning heat all over her body, and then realized that what Jiang Chenxin had just fed her was probably the essence blood from the tip of his tongue.
After swallowing the essence blood from the tip of her tongue, Gu Qingqiu felt as if she were a medicinal herb being burned by the Samadhi True Fire in an alchemy furnace, about to turn to ashes at any moment.
Jiang Chenxin knew that Gu Qingqiu must be feeling terrible, but because his hands and feet were restrained, he couldn't comfort her with actions. He could only repeatedly say in her ear, "Don't be afraid, Thirteen, I'm here. Just bear with it a little longer, it will pass soon."
Gu Qingqiu was already delirious from the fever and could only vaguely hear Jiang Chenxin's voice to barely keep from fainting. Her body was completely pressed against Jiang Chenxin, pressed tightly together with him.
Gu Qingqiu lost consciousness at some point. When she woke up again, she only felt Jiang Chenxin tenderly kissing the ends of her hair, and she could feel that she could control the dragon flames in her body.
Jiang Chenxin asked gently, "Awake?"
Gu Qingqiu even felt as if they weren't in a cave, but rather embracing each other on a soft bed, in a warm blanket, like a boyfriend's gentle good morning greeting.
“…Hmm.” Gu Qingqiu managed to utter a single syllable, only to find that her voice was already incredibly hoarse.
Jiang Chenxin asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Qingqiu felt it for a moment, and apart from some soreness and fatigue, and the stickiness left by sweat after exercise, there was no other discomfort. So she performed a bathing technique on both of them, and they immediately felt refreshed.
"Are you leaving?" Jiang Chenxin asked her.
From the moment Gu Qingqiu proposed obtaining the Chilong mark, he had already prepared himself mentally.
"Yes." Gu Qingqiu was somewhat reluctant, but her tone was resolute. "I will come back to save you."
Jiang Chenxin chuckled softly, "Okay...okay..."
For some reason, Gu Qingqiu felt a sense of guilt, like a scumbag who abandoned his wife and children. She cleared her throat and said, "Um... thank you."
"No need, there's no need for these words between us." Jiang Chenxin's tone was surprisingly nonchalant. "It's alright, you can go now. If you can leave safely, don't think about coming back to save me. Find a safe place to live. I hope you will be happy and joyful in the future."
Gu Qingqiu could no longer contain herself. "What do you mean? Do you think I'm the kind of person who uses you and then abandons you? Don't forget, I swore a solemn oath!"
Jiang Chenxin sighed and said, "If that's what you're worried about, I can also make a hand seal and swear an oath, telling the Heavenly Dao that I am the one who fulfilled this oath. I will now unilaterally void this oath, and you will not suffer any backlash or punishment. Don't worry."
This was the first time Gu Qingqiu had realized that Jiang Chenxin was such a scheming person. She didn't know if Jiang Chenxin was truly indifferent or just pretending, but this nonchalant attitude made her feel uneasy.
In fact, regardless of whether she had sworn an oath or not, she could not possibly abandon Jiang Chenxin.
