Damn capitalism!

Xie Meiling's shining black eyes gazed into Xie Qing's confident face, who casually smiled, holding her hand. 

At some point, her gaze on her son differed from ordinary motherly love. However, Xie Meiling still did not realize this, brushing it off as ordinary motherly love. 

Perhaps deep down in her mind, the thought stood, but she deliberately ignored it to avoid breaking the current relationships and creating unnecessary awkwardness. 

Moreover, her main barrier was taboo. Incest was condemned among the aristocracy, although cultivators saw it as normal, as it even allowed the preservation of blood purity in some places. 

Among mortals, incest could lead to mutations or diseases, as well as weakness, but cultivators were different and more resilient. Therefore, they did not have such problems. Xie Meiling was lost in thought.
