Ch 2167 - Small Life

After removing the seal, Sheng Mei's energy had fully flowed into her son.
This underground mystic realm cave contained pure unparalleled heaven and earth origin energy and the power of a demon god. Sheng Mei sat in meditation every day, absorbing the surrounding heaven and earth origin energy. But, he did not absorb this energy for himself, but to help him grow.
Perhaps it was because the seal had been attached for too long, but after the seal was opened, a small life began to grow rapidly inside him. The origin energy that Sheng Mei had drawn was absorbed by this little life without a single drop remaining.
This growth speed is scary.
Sheng Mei and Lin Ming lived in this cave for over half a year.
Sheng Mei's stomach had already started to bulge a little. As she felt her son's growth every day, a smile would appear on her face.
Although the cave that could only be described as this deadly silence was dark, Sheng Mei had released the seal on her son here and also had Lin Ming accompany her. Therefore, the surrounding environment became warm and touching. This kind of life was filled with faint happiness …
But, what made Sheng Mei occasionally sigh was that during this half a year she rarely spoke to Lin Ming. Most of his time was spent on meditation, and for Lin Ming, he spent most of his time studying the demon reliefs under the cliff and also studying the ancient bronze coffins that were at the mouth of the demon reliefs.
The two of them would occasionally meet the eye, but often they mostly chatted lightly and greeted. Even if they spoke, it would mostly be speculation about this mystic realm and a discussion of Laws.
Moreover, Lin Ming and Sheng Mei were basically not talking to each other. Perhaps because of a special event that took place 7000 years ago, both of them may have had their beginnings flooded with misunderstandings and resentment. Because of this, the two of them might not be able to see each other's hearts clearly, and even if they did, they still kept their distance, which was neither too friendly nor too aloof.
It may be a form of self-preservation, it may be a way to protect one another's self-esteem and self-esteem, perhaps out of fear of an uncertain future, or maybe even fear that in the future, two of them will head in the opposite direction…
In order to avoid greater tragedies in the future, to avoid them further injuring each other, no one was willing to take the first step forward.
Time pass. Sheng Mei carefully kept this distance. He was like a noble and sensitive cat that roamed around at night.
It was just that sometimes at night, he would talk to the child inside his stomach, pouring out all the emotions and thoughts he had hidden in his heart…
… ..
Like this, two years passed.
Lin Ming and Sheng Mei's lives continued without much change. Sometimes, they would touch each other's fluctuations of soul and field of life with each other. Whether it was Lin Ming or Sheng Mei, this type of contact between the magnetic fields of their lives was a pleasant experience.
On this day, Sheng Mei's eyes opened from meditation. At this moment he felt a very clear life fluctuation emerge from his stomach.
Then, a soft and clear voice sounded childish, “Mommy... Mommy... I want to meet you sooner..”.
Although this voice was weak, it caused Sheng Mei's heart to tremble!
In the dreamland of his heart demon, he had heard his son speak. He never imagined that in reality, just as his son was about to be born, that his son would actually speak, and his tone was actually very similar to that child in dreamland!
Everything that happened in the demon heart dreamland was clearly fake, but when she recalled her experience there, Sheng Mei was left to seep in anxiety.
He had already sworn that even if he would be smashed to pieces and his soul was destroyed, he would never allow that scene in his dream to happen in reality!
“My son, mother is here, quickly grow and grow faster and you can see mother soon.”
Sheng Mei said with a slightly excited expression as she stroked her stomach.
And at this time, Lin Ming who was studying the demon reliefs under the cliff also heard the conversation between Sheng Mei and the boy.
Breathing accelerated. His figure flashed and he arrived beside Sheng Mei.
“Dia...he speaks?”
Lin Ming's expression was filled with excitement. His son could speak even inside his mother. This kind of perception and awareness was simply not something that a mortal child possessed.
Once his son was born, he would truly become a monstrous genius in terms of cultivation.
Before Sheng Mei could nod, the little life in her stomach asked, in an uncertain tone, “You ... Father?”
Although this little life could not look outside, he could see using his heart to understand the world outside.
“Throttle once!” Hearing this little life calling him father, Lin Ming felt a surging feeling in his heart. There was satisfaction, pride, happiness.he wanted to hold this child and take good care of him.
Unfortunately, he was not yet born…
Lin Ming spoke from his heart, his expression filled with tender love.
However, the little life in Sheng Mei's stomach carefully said, “Dad, do you like me?”
“Of course!” Lin Ming replied without hesitation. Is that a question?
“But...” The childish voice was a little hesitant, “Then why have you never touched me and rarely come to see me? It's always mom talking to me, but you never talk to me? Daddy feels like a stranger.. ”.
This soft baby voice rang out in Lin Ming's ears, making him stupid as if it was hitting him like a heavy hammer.
She was actually ... speechless.
Thas right. Two years ago, he touched Sheng Mei's stomach, and it was to feel the fluctuation of the child's life and determine that this little life was his own blood and flesh.
But after that, he never touched the child again, because touching the child was actually the same as touching Sheng Mei…
As for talking to his own son, Lin Ming never imagined that this would happen. He never thought that this little life would develop such a level of consciousness and he never spoke to the child because it would speak into Sheng Mei's stomach. In Lin Ming's point of view, this seemed somewhat ridiculous …
So, during these past two years Sheng Mei spoke to the child in her own stomach. Lin Ming's exchange with this little life was almost zero …
So, it would not be wrong if this little life called him a stranger at all.
“Mommy, I think Dad doesn't like us ..”
The little life seemed to be getting more and more convinced of his feelings. His soft voice echoed in Lin Ming and Sheng Mei's ears.
Lin Ming was left even more speechless. He freezes. She originally wanted to extend a hand to touch her child, but when it was halfway through, she took it back, very embarrassed.
And on the other hand, Sheng Mei's mind was also complex. He gently traced his stomach. He originally wanted to say ‘How could your father not like us?’, But when these words reached the tip of his tongue, those words disappeared once again. This was because he did not have the confidence to say such words.
He looked at Lin Ming, unsure of what expression to make …
“Daddy really doesn't like us. I was hated before I was born. Aiya, I think I should follow Mommy instead. “
The soft, childish voice seemed to sigh like an adult. And faintly, one could feel the cunning of a little child in his voice.
But at this moment, whether these words were the true thoughts of this strange and playful little boy, was not important.
That soft and childish voice had touched the softest part of Lin Ming's heart, making him feel as if his heart had been gripped by a needle.
He silently bowed and held Sheng Mei as well as the child in his stomach.
He said in a warm tone, “Dad likes you. No matter what happens to you in the future, no matter what danger you face, father will stand before you and take care of you and protect you.”.
Like this, Sheng Mei was held by Lin Ming. He stiffened for a moment, his mind was in a mess as he looked for something to say.
“Then you will also protect Mommy?” The little life earnestly asked.
“Of course!”
Lin Ming's voice was not loud, but solid and true.
Sheng Mei shivered. He looked at Lin Ming and his stomach, his eyes involuntarily becoming wet …
He did not know what the future would bring, but as long as he faced it bravely, then what was the difference?
At this moment, Lin Ming silently spoke in Sheng Mei's ears. “After we leave the Tomb of the Demon God, come with me..”.
This simple and lighthearted commitment has no illustrious words nor is it filled with heated love vows between men and women, but these few simple words caused Sheng Mei's heart to tremble and her misty eyes began to tear …
“Dia ... will find us ..”
Sheng Mei said sadly. He had already decided to bravely face the future, but he had never thought of accompanying Lin Ming. To the Soul Emperor, he was like a beacon at night. Wherever he went, he would be able to easily find him.
He did not want to drag Lin Ming into his mess. Just a simple promise from him was more than enough.
“I know ...” Lin Ming gently traced Sheng Mei's cheeks. “I once had nothing in this world, but I grew step by step until I reached where I am now. I once broke through the chain of the Heavenly Dao to change my life and destiny. I once fell into the lowest valley, but I crawled back. I once faced the overbearing power of the saints to find a moment of rest for my race. I have been through so much ‘one’ before, so why should I be afraid of the future? “
As Lin Ming spoke, he slowly pulled Sheng Mei into his chest.
