Chapter 4951: 5.0703 Crystal Core

Qiao Mu figured that's all she could do. Her soul body had been unstable for a while now.

Before, in the Lotus Holy Realm, she had recovered a fragment of her soul, which significantly stabilized it.

Without that soul fragment's help, the recovery time would likely have been even longer.

Qiao Mu subconsciously caressed her left palm. Sometimes, she felt the Fuxi Great Sword within her body, eager to burst forth.

It'll be soon, old friend. We'll meet properly very soon.

"Your Majesty." A Dark Guard hurried into the spiritual artifact cabin, standing at the door and bowing respectfully.

"Qiaoqiao, dinner's ready for you. Go eat something first. I'll go see what's happening."

Qiao Mu looked at him, nodding as she crawled out of her sleeping bag. "Tell me if anything important happens, okay?"

These people always liked to keep things from Qiaoqiao; it was particularly annoying.

"Alright." Duan Yue smiled and nodded, then turned and left with the whispering Dark Guard.

Lord Qiaoqiao slowly rolled out of her sleeping bag, touched her slightly warm belly, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

It's strange; she could almost understand the baby's routine now.

When it was mealtime, it would definitely remind her to get up and eat!

Three meals a day plus two snacks were perfectly timed. As soon as the time came, her belly would feel slightly warm.

This was the little one inside reminding her to eat quickly.

This child is definitely a foodie, the little stoic-face thought expressionlessly.

Just like his father, for sure!

Dinner was six dishes and one soup, and the little stoic-face ate quite well.

Mo sat on a nearby stool, staring blankly as Qiao Mu ate.

After the little stoic-face finished eating and put down her chopsticks, she felt a slight warmth in her belly.

"Mommy can't eat anymore; it's not good to overeat," she mumbled to herself, raising a hand to touch her belly.

Looking up, she saw Duan Yue walk in, carrying a plate of colorful and fragrant roasted fish.

"Qiaoqiao, this Colorful Divine Fish..."

Qiao Mu quickly stood up, trotted to his side, and considerately took the plate from his hands.

Strange, her belly seemed to crave this Colorful Divine Fish, even though she was already full.

"What's wrong, Qiaoqiao?"

"Nothing." Qiao Mu picked up her chopsticks and experimentally tried to pick at the ordinary braised fish next to it.

Her little belly remained calm, with no reaction at all.

She then moved to pick at the Colorful Divine Fish, and her belly instantly warmed up, as if Mo Baobao was urging her through her skin to hurry, hurry, hurry...

Qiao Mu thoughtfully tried a few more dishes, then suddenly understood and put down her chopsticks.

Her baby, it seemed, was more interested in food with innate divine power.

Whenever her chopsticks moved to food containing divine or spiritual power, her belly would heat up to varying degrees.

Was this the baby sending her a signal? Lord Qiaoqiao was both amused and annoyed, feeling an urge to roll her eyes.

This baby wasn't even born yet, and was so small, but was already managing her mommy's daily life and diet!

However, she had eaten too much regular food today and didn't want to eat any more divine power food. Never mind, she'd try again tomorrow.

Duan Yue sat beside her, watching her chopsticks move from one dish to another, his gaze following her back and forth. "Not eating anymore?"

"I'm stuffed."

"Then let's get up and walk around. I'll accompany you to aid digestion." Duan Yue's gaze shifted to her abdomen, and he asked softly, "Does he know?"

"No," Qiao Mu replied, disheartened.

"What a pig-head."
