Over the next few months, he kept absorbing the “vital energy” within the womb.
Everything was going smoothly.
If he had just a few more days, he was absolutely confident he could break through to the next major realm and reach an unprecedented level.
In his previous life, he had already stood at the peak of humanity.
If he broke through again, would people think he was some kind of monster? Who else could break through a major realm in just a few months? In his past life, people would’ve thought it was a joke.
But now, he had actually done it.
But the night before he was about to break through, the time for birth arrived.
He knew it was time for him to be born.
The Bai family called for a midwife, and the young woman screamed in pain all night.
He was torn—should he keep cultivating or choose to be born? If he gave up this chance, he didn’t know if he’d ever find such pure “vital energy” again, or if he’d ever get another opportunity so perfect for a breakthrough.
Even though he had never met this so-called ‘mother,’ the deep longing in his heart for a mother’s love made it hard for him to keep cultivating.
Every time he remembered how, in his past life, he’d watch other kids holding their parents’ hands as they walked by, he’d feel a strange ache in his chest.
If… if he had a mother, would he have lived a life full of killing and fighting? Would he have been able to act spoiled in his parents’ arms like other kids? But those were just fantasies.
Still, the thought never left his mind.
So he decided to give up cultivating, to give up this chance to break through, and instead fulfill a dream he’d had since he was a child.
Since he had reincarnated, it meant a new beginning, a new life.
Let the past stay in the past.
He decided to experience a new life, a new journey, and meet new ‘parents.’ As for his little sister, he’d keep her as a secret buried deep in his heart, and live happily for the both of them.
That way, this second chance at life wouldn’t be wasted.
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt his body being squeezed, slowly moving to one side.
He knew he was about to be born, so he didn’t resist.
He just let it happen naturally.
Even as he did, his mind was filled with memories of his past life—happy times with his sister, and all the things that had happened before.
Hearing the screams outside and the midwife’s urgent shouts, he smiled slightly.
“Goodbye, past.
Goodbye, little sister.”
That night, he (she) was born.
“A new life, here I come.” She said this the moment she was born, but to everyone else, it just sounded like a loud cry.
The midwife held her and let out a clear sigh of relief.
The young woman stopped screaming, her face soft with a gentle smile as she looked at the baby in the midwife’s arms, her joy written all over her face.
Not long after one of the midwives left the room, two people walked in through the door.
One was the young woman’s husband, Bai Mo, and the other was their eldest daughter, Bai Ting.
She had waist-length silver hair tied into a ponytail that swayed as she walked.
Her delicate little face had a pair of seductive eyes that seemed to draw in your soul.
Long lashes, big watery eyes—she looked absolutely adorable.
Her skin was so soft and tender it seemed like you could squeeze water out of it.
After they entered, Bai Mo rushed to the young woman’s side in just a few steps and asked, “Yue Xin, are you okay?”
At the same time, the little girl ran to the young woman’s side and called out, “Mommy!”
“Ah~ Xiao Ting, you’re here too!” she said, reaching out to pat the little girl’s head.
The girl squinted happily, humming softly, her face full of joy.
After that, she turned to her husband and said, “I’m fine, just a little tired.
You should go check on the baby first.” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but glance lovingly in that direction.
Hearing the word ‘baby,’ Bai Mo’s joy was written all over his face.
“Alright.” Then he walked over to the midwife and gently took the baby from her arms, afraid of hurting her.
Looking at the baby in his arms, Bai Mo felt like he was floating.
Those big watery eyes, that stunning little face—there was no doubt she’d grow up to be a devastating beauty.
Her tiny, boneless hands were waving around unconsciously, like she was trying to grab something.
Bai Mo brought her over to Yue Xin’s bedside and said, “Yue Xin, look at her.
What a cute little thing.
She’s definitely going to be a heartbreaker when she grows up.” Don’t be fooled by Bai Mo’s usually stern appearance—that was only in front of outsiders.
With his wife and family, he was completely shameless.
Yue Xin rolled her eyes at him and said, “You’re never serious.
She’s just been born and you’re already thinking about when she grows up.”
Bai Mo scratched his head awkwardly and shut up, chuckling a couple of times without saying anything more.
At that moment, little Ting spoke up.
“What a cute little sister! Hehe, just like Daddy said, she’s definitely going to be a beauty when she grows up.
Mm-hmm, I’m going to dress her up so pretty!”
As she spoke, she even bounced up and down with excitement.
Yue Xin smiled at her and said, “When Xiao Ting grows up, she’ll be a beauty too~ Definitely not any less than your little sister.”
“Mm-hmm!” Xiao Ting nodded hard, then went back to staring at her baby sister.
“Oh, right.” Yue Xin suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to Bai Mo.
“We haven’t named her yet.
Why don’t you pick one now?”
“You’re right.” Only after Yue Xin reminded him did he realize they hadn’t named the baby.
After thinking for a few minutes, Bai Mo clenched his left fist and smacked it into his right palm.
“Got it! Let’s call her Bai Ling!”
“Bai Ling? Mm! That’s a nice name. Let’s go with that.”
