When my vicious stepmother mistakenly married me to the Immortal Lord

Jiang Song looked down following his gaze and instantly understood something. His face turned red and he became a little angry and embarrassed. "You...what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Song'er, it's been a month since you last had your period, right?" Xie Changyan's tone was firm, his eyes gentle yet sharp.

Jiang Song suddenly looked up, widened his eyes, and looked at Xie Changyan in disbelief.

She had indeed not had her period for more than a month. She originally thought it was due to her cultivation and did not think much about it. She did not expect him to point it out in one sentence.

"You...how do you know?" Jiang Song's voice trembled slightly, and two blushes appeared on his cheeks.

"I just found out yesterday. My husband has been a doctor for a long time and has a good understanding of pharmacology. I have a general understanding of your pulse."

Xie Changyan smiled softly, his eyes filled with tenderness, "Song'er, you are pregnant, it is not advisable to take any more risks."

"The Xuanming Pill is very potent and will have a significant impact on the fetus. If you take it, it might damage your foundation, or even..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Song was struck by lightning. He sat there in a daze, his mind blank.

She's pregnant? How is that possible?

She was actually pregnant with Xie Changyan's child without realizing it.

Jiang Song's hand unconsciously touched his lower abdomen, which was still as flat as before, but it had already nurtured a new life.

A complex emotion surged in her heart, including surprise, panic, and uncertainty about the future.

"I...I really have a child?"

Seeing her complicated expression, Xie Changyan couldn't help but feel distressed. He slowly stood up, walked to Jiang Song, and gently held her hand.

"Yes, Song'er, we have a child."

"Don't be afraid, your husband will always be by your side."

A few days ago, he thought he was about to lose her, but he didn't expect that God would give him such a surprise.

The child is the closest bond between them and the most powerful reason for him to protect her.

Jiang Song raised his head and looked at Xie Changyan with a bit of grievance, his eyes slightly reddened. "I... I haven't thought about it yet. This is too sudden."

"Song'er, don't you want this child?"

Xie Changyan's voice was gentle and slightly nervous. He gently stroked the back of Jiang Song's hand, trying to read her true thoughts from her expression.

Jiang Song shook his head, then nodded, tears welling up in his eyes. "I... I just didn't expect it to happen so soon. I still have a lot of things to do, and a lot of plans are messed up."

Xie Changyan gently held Jiang Song in his arms, her hair pressed against his chest. He could feel her slightly trembling body and her slightly panicked heart.

He patted her back gently, as if comforting a frightened child.

"Song'er, please forgive your husband, okay?"

"I was the one who took advantage of you. Now, let me spend the rest of my life making it up to you and protecting our child together. Okay?"

As a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, who had suffered a serious injury, it was extremely difficult for Xie Changyan to conceive a child.

But now Jiang Song is pregnant with his child, which is undoubtedly the greatest gift God has given him.

He loves the child, not only because the child is so hard to come by, but also because the child's mother is Jiang Song.

He was deeply fascinated by her tenacity, intelligence, and the gentleness that she revealed inadvertently.

"But...what about the Suzaku Divine Fire? I can't let it continue to erode my body, and I can't let it harm the child."

Xie Changyan gently stroked her cheek, "Don't worry, I will find a way to solve the problem of the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire. The most important thing for you now is to rest well and take good care of your body."

"But...those materials..." Jiang Song looked at him with tears in his eyes, still feeling uneasy.

Xie Changyan's eyes were full of doting, and he gently wiped the tears from her cheeks with a handkerchief.

"Fool, since we don't need to take Xuanming Pills anymore, we naturally don't need those ingredients."

"I have another way to suppress the Suzaku Divine Fire, and this method will not harm you or the child."

"Really? Dual cultivation?"

Xie Changyan raised his lips into a helpless yet gentle smile, and couldn't help but cough lightly, somewhat caught off guard by Jiang Song's words.

"Yes. But it's not the kind of dual cultivation you used to understand."

"This is a gentler and more advanced method of blending spiritual energy. It can gradually guide and suppress the Suzaku Divine Fire without harming your body."

Jiang Song felt relieved, but he couldn't help but be curious, "What kind of method is that?"

Xie Changyan smiled slightly and did not speak immediately. Instead, he carried Jiang Song to the bed and sat her down. He then poured her a glass of warm water and waited for her to drink it before he slowly spoke.

"Song'er, have you ever heard of the 'Ice Heart Jade Dew Technique'?"

Jiang Song shook his head, an inexplicable feeling welling up in his heart, as if this 'Ice Heart Jade Dew Secret' was extraordinary.

"This technique was created by a female cultivator in ancient times, specifically for suppressing the inner fire. This technique requires the joint practice of a man and a woman, but not in the ordinary sense. Instead, it uses the man's pure spiritual energy as a guide, combined with the woman's internal coldness, to condense a spiritual fluid called 'Ice Heart Jade Dew'. This spiritual fluid can penetrate deep into the bone marrow, warming the meridians and having a miraculous effect on suppressing the inner fire of the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire."

Jiang Song listened to Xie Changyan's explanation with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

This method sounds both gentle and effective, and it also avoids the need to search for dangerous materials, which is perfect.

"Then... when do we start practicing this 'Ice Heart Jade Dew Technique'?"

Xie Changyan reached out and scratched the tip of her nose, "Song'er, are you not angry with your husband anymore?"

Jiang Song's cheeks flushed slightly. She glared at him, but couldn't help laughing. "Then what can I do? You already know that I'm pregnant. Do you want me to continue to be angry and hurt the child?"

The smile in Xie Changyan's eyes grew wider, and he leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

"Song'er, I know you've been holding your guard up, but I'll prove it with my actions. I'll be your and your child's most solid support."

Jiang Song snuggled in Xie Changyan's arms, feeling the long-lost warmth and peace of mind. She knew that the defenses in her heart were gradually crumbling.

"Ayan, I..." Jiang Song's voice was a little choked, as if he had a thousand words to say but didn't know where to start.

Xie Changyan patted her back gently and interrupted her softly: "Song'er, no need to say more, I understand."

"But the injury on your back..." Jiang Song couldn't help but feel sad when he mentioned Xie Changyan's old injury on his back.

He said that if there was no secret method to repair his spiritual body, the old injury might accompany him for the rest of his life, and even affect his cultivation and lifespan.

Xie Changyan smiled faintly, seemingly unconcerned. "It's okay, Song'er, you are my husband's medicine. With you here, those old wounds are just traces of time and will eventually fade away."

"Ayan, you will definitely get better, right?"

"Yeah, of course."
