The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

"Uh-oh, I really am the most useless!"

Chu Qianqiu had a bitter expression, speaking incoherently.

But his mother reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him in a gentle voice.

"Qiu'er, what are you thinking?"

"You don't have to worry, Mother. Even if I can only reach the Foundation Building stage in this lifetime, I will be content."

"After all, that is the highest achievement for an ordinary person in their lifetime."

She said, but her expression didn't seem like she was comforting herself.

However, Chu Qianqiu felt helpless and wondered if he should say something or not.

Now he wasn't worried for his mother, but rather for himself in sorrow.

But since everything was fine now, he didn't want to cause any more trouble and let the two of them rest.

His uncle's body had been dealt with, the pieces scattered in the wild behind the mountain, waiting to be consumed by wild beasts.

Even though he was a Demonic Cultivator with some extraordinary abilities, it was unlikely that any miracles would happen now.

After all, the corpse had been divided and eaten by wild beasts, even immortals would shake their heads at that.

Afterwards, the work of repairing the walls and houses inside and outside the family began.

With the end of today's drama, the returning young members of the family could make use of the construction materials, so they had to properly take care of the entire family courtyard.

Of course, those high-quality materials were not for repairing walls, but for beautifying the interior decoration.

After several busy days, the entire Chu family looked completely renewed.

In Clear Pond Town, the residents also heard about the recent events in the Chu family.

It was said that their young members went to the city to make purchases and encountered bandits. The bandits followed them all the way, wanting to cause trouble, but unexpectedly, the Chu family had experts who drove them away in a sorry state.

This was roughly what the residents heard.

No one knew what happened to the so-called bandits, and no one knew who the expert from the Chu family was.

But afterwards, everyone respected the Chu family even more. When they saw the young members of the Chu family on the road, regardless of their identity, they would smile and greet them warmly.

In this way, the Chu family completely became the leader of Clear Pond Town, reigning supreme in this small place.

But even so, the Chu family did not abuse their privileges or oppress others, treating their neighbors with kindness as usual.

This made the people admire them and praise the Chu family's good moral character.

...

Time passed in a quiet and peaceful manner, like flowing water.

Spring passed, summer came, and autumn arrived.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed, and it was the winter solstice with heavy snowfall in the Chu family's courtyard.

In recent days, Ren Qianxue had been counting the days closely, guessing that her daughter-in-law was about to give birth.

After ten months of pregnancy, Gu Qingxue's belly had grown bigger and it was time for delivery.

Chu Qianqiu had been by her side, never leaving, accompanying Xue'er.

He often caressed his wife's large pregnant belly, feeling the small yet lively movements inside, sensing the signs of their child's imminent birth.

"Husband, do you think it's a boy or a girl?"

Gu Qingxue, gentle and quiet, lay on the rocking chair, looking at her husband who was close to her belly, and asked softly with a loving tone.

"Regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, I will love and cherish them both."

Chu Qianqiu smiled and looked at his beloved, his eyes filled with affection.

And in his demeanor, there was less youthful immaturity and more of the realization of becoming a father.

The two of them exchanged sweet words, preparing to welcome the arrival of their newborn.

...

The next night, Gu Qingxue groaned, her water broke. Chu Qianqiu hurriedly called his mother and the midwife.

He was in a rush and didn't know what to do.

When Ren Qianxue arrived with the others, he was treated like an outsider and driven away.

During childbirth, only women were allowed to be present.

Chu Qianqiu, although a husband, is just an ordinary man, rough and inexperienced in childbirth, lacking the skills of a midwife, and it would be inappropriate for him to interfere.

"Don't be nervous, take a deep breath!"

From the window, came Ren Qianxue's comforting words.

Chu Qianqiu followed suit and started breathing rapidly.

The more his mother spoke, the more unstable his emotions became.

As he watched the snowflakes falling and the moon faintly appearing in the dark night, for some reason, the young man's mood became more complicated.

It was a kind of emotion that marked the transition from boyhood to manhood, a final baptism that must be accepted.

From today onwards, he was no longer just a tree climber, but also had to consider the seedlings beneath him.

[The host's offspring is about to be born.]

[As a reward for the first-born offspring, you will receive a special pill.]

[The Divine Pill has been credited to the heavens, and the specific introduction is underway...]

"Ah?"

Suddenly, Chu Qianqiu heard the activity in his mind, causing him to snap out of his reverie.

He didn't expect that not only would there be additional rewards for the first development of the family, but also for the first-born offspring.

It seems that the system also likes to emphasize "a good start" and give himself a little surprise.

Chu Qianqiu probed with his consciousness and found that the pill was already stored in the system's warehouse in his mind.

It was a pill that appeared to have a golden base, with a dragon and a phoenix intricately engraved on it.

The dragon and phoenix intertwined, not competing with each other, giving birth to each other, a sign of auspiciousness.

In Chu Qianqiu's limited knowledge, such a exquisite pill could be ranked first.

But after a detailed understanding, he was shocked to find that this pill was of no grade.

In other words, this pill was the most rubbish kind of pill in the world, even a dog would shake its head and refuse to eat it.

"No grade? What the hell!"

"Among all the pills in the world, even the lowest grade should have some medicinal effect. A pill with no grade means it's a waste pill, full of impurities. Whoever eats it will go to the Western Heaven."

"Just by looking at its appearance, I thought it was some extraordinary treasure."

"System, if you want me to die, just say it..."

Muttering a few words in frustration, Chu Qianqiu really wanted to beat up the system.

But the system promptly stood up and said it wouldn't take the blame for this.

[Host, please don't be impatient.]

[This pill is specially provided by the system and is not available outside, so it has no rating.]

[The detailed introduction of the pill is being sent, please read it carefully.]

"Tsk, specially provided by the system? Playing at such a high level."

"Is it more awesome than the true supreme treasure pills of the Immortal and Divine ranks?"

With a disdainful sound, Chu Qianqiu concentrated his mind again and entered his mind to check the introduction of the pill.

After a while, he sighed, shook his head, and sighed even more disappointedly.

"Is this it?"

It turned out that this pill was specifically created by the system to encourage him to have offspring, a kind of "luck" pill for the offspring.

The reason why it was called a luck pill was actually very simple.

The method of using the pill was purely based on appearance.

If you had good luck, it would be a treasure, but if you had bad luck... it would be like eating a tasteless candy.

This pill was used to summon the souls of newborns.

In this world, all beings, whether immortal or mortal, must abide by the laws of heaven and eventually enter the cycle of reincarnation.

And among the six realms, the soul is one of them.

This pill was tailor-made for this purpose, to summon the wandering souls of newborns to the heavens and the earth.
