Crossing over with a system——I began cultivating from the womb

Chapter 31: An awkward atmosphere hung in the air.



Mu Nantian's eyes flickered.

Looking at the young couple standing in the center of the hall, his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

He sighed inwardly, again and again.

Frost Heaven Emperor, Holy Ancestor Wuxu, why did you suddenly come to my Mu family?

When I sent out the invitation that day, it was just a formality!

I didn't really mean to invite you, okay?

As the dignified Heaven Emperor, couldn't you maintain some decorum?

Mu Nantian grumbled internally.

Under normal circumstances, if the Frost Heaven Emperor deigned to visit, the Mu family would undoubtedly put on a grand display, receiving her with the highest honors.

But today was different!

Today was specifically a banquet held for the Absolute Spirit Sword Body!

Yet the unborn Emperor's Son in your womb has awakened the Flawless Sword Heart !

Are you here to ruin the party?

At this moment, Mu Nantian was truly helpless.

He suddenly felt a pang of regret.

Damn it, when I went to Xuan Shuang Cave Heaven to apologize, I should have just apologized!

Why did I have to send an invitation?

Was I out of my mind back then?

Otherwise, the Frost Heaven Emperor wouldn't have actually come!

Mu Nantian's expression shifted rapidly.

Others in the hall soon noticed this.

This left everyone puzzled.

Isn't the Frost Heaven Emperor here as a guest?

But why does the Mu family head look somewhat unwelcoming?

What's going on?

Doubts clouded everyone's minds.

This situation seemed to be getting a bit mysterious.

Not only did they feel it, but even Jiang Yuqiong in the womb sensed that the atmosphere was somewhat off.

"Finally at the Mu family banquet, huh."

"Hehehe, old man Mu Nantian really doesn't seem to welcome us!"

"But my mom is the Heaven Emperor, do you dare to drive her away?"

"Hehe... I really want to see what Mu Nantian's expression looks like right now."

Jiang Yuqiong's gossip fire burned brightly in his heart.

Last time Mu Nantian went to Xuan Shuang Cave Heaven to show off, he was slapped in the face on the spot.

Today, with his parents bringing him here, his expression must be quite the sight.

I love it when you can't stand me but can't do anything about it!

This feeling is just too satisfying!

In the hall, Su Qingshuang and Jiang Wuxu also noticed Mu Nantian's expression, both wearing faint smiles.

Especially Jiang Wuxu, who couldn't have been more delighted at the misfortune.

"Master Mu, do you not welcome us, husband and wife?"

"If so, we shall take our leave and not disturb you further."

He feigned a bow, then supported Su Qingshuang beside him.

The two turned around, seemingly to leave.

But Mu Nantian couldn't dare!

Are you kidding?

The Heaven Emperor has arrived, and he dares not welcome her?

Even if he doesn't welcome her in his heart, he cannot say it out loud.

Looking across the entire world today, who would have the guts to give the Frost Heaven Emperor the cold shoulder?

Immediately, Mu Nantian forced a stiff smile.

"How dare I, how dare I! Welcome, welcome!"

"My Mu family is truly fortunate to have the Frost Heaven Emperor and Holy Ancestor Wuxu deign to visit our humble abode!"

While speaking, he bowed repeatedly.

He no longer cared about drinking.

He quickly gave up the main seat.

He even personally took charge, clearing the table of wine and dishes, replacing them with a new set.

After a flurry of activity, an additional table was set up in the hall.

Mu Nantian and Jian Lingtian were about to take their seats with Mu Qingchen.

However, Mu Qingchen remained seated in his original spot, not moving an inch.

"Qingchen, quickly make way for the Frost Heaven Emperor and Holy Ancestor Wuxu."

Mu Nantian said.

But Mu Qingchen didn't even glance at him.

The boy's eyes were fixed on the fairy-like woman, expressionless, his gaze extremely solemn.

It was as if the one standing before him wasn't a Heaven Emperor but an ordinary person.

Seeing this, Mu Nantian was scared half to death.

His grandson was simply too bold!

With the Heaven Emperor present, how dare you stare like that?

Not to mention you have no cultivation now, even if you were to ascend to the Sword Emperor position in the future, the existence before you is still not someone you can easily offend!

Mu Nantian said nothing more, directly stepping forward to take his grandson away.

But Mu Qingchen dodged.

His gaze shifted to Su Qingshuang's abdomen.

"Frost Heaven Emperor, when will the Emperor's Son be born?"

He asked.

Su Qingshuang smiled slightly, not answering.

This made Mu Nantian's body tremble.

What does this mean?

You little brat, are you challenging the Emperor's Son?

"The child is ignorant, please, Frost Heaven Emperor, do not take offense."

He quickly said.

Then, without any delay, he picked up Mu Qingchen.

The boy's gaze remained on Su Qingshuang's abdomen, his thoughts unknown.

But those eyes were like those of a stubborn and fiercely defiant ancient beast!

It wasn't until Mu Nantian finally seated him that he restrained himself.

"Was that little brat just challenging me?"

"Should be that Absolute Spirit Sword Body, huh? Heh..."

"Don't mess with me, or I'll beat you until you cry and can't stop!"

Jiang Yuqiong sneered inwardly.

He didn't care at all about Mu Qingchen's provocation.

Just an Absolute Spirit Sword Body, huh?

Acting all high and mighty?

Finally, the banquet in the hall continued.

But everything that had just happened made the atmosphere extremely strange.

A subtle tension flowed through the air.

The guests who came to the Mu family all had their thoughts racing.

The situation was very clear now!

The Frost Heaven Emperor and Holy Ancestor Wuxu were obviously not here to give face to the Mu family or to celebrate the Absolute Spirit Sword Body.

Instead, it seemed more like they were here to stir things up?

Everyone drank and ate, but it was no longer as lively as before, almost mechanically sipping their wine.

Each one like a soulless puppet.

The Frost Heaven Emperor sat at the head, saying nothing.

Holy Ancestor Wuxu's eyes were only on his wife, serving her dishes, even pulling out a gleaming dagger to peel spiritual fruits.

Mu Nantian drank cup after cup, filled with frustration.

Jiang Yuqiong in the womb couldn't see this scene.

But the strange, silent atmosphere was clearly felt by him.

This made him delighted.

"My mom is just dominant!"

"The peerless Heaven Emperor, suppressing all dissent!"

"No matter how unhappy you are, keep it bottled up inside!"

Jiang Yuqiong thought to himself.

In the hall, no one spoke.

But as time passed, the five from Hidden Sword Mountain, led by Jian Lingtian, soon couldn't sit still.

The arrival of the Frost Heaven Emperor filled them with immense joy!

Could it be that the Frost Heaven Emperor and Holy Ancestor Wuxu had thought it over and decided to let the Emperor's Son join Hidden Sword Mountain after birth?

This was the most likely possibility!

Otherwise, why would they specifically come to the Mu family?

But things didn't develop as they had imagined.

After arriving, the Heaven Emperor couple said nothing, just sitting there.

Are you going to agree or not?

Give us a straight answer!

For a moment, the five from Hidden Sword Mountain exchanged looks.

They were all hesitating whether to bring up the topic主动.

In fact, this couldn't be blamed on Su Qingshuang and Jiang Wuxu.

They came to the Mu family following the little one's wishes.

As for what he wanted to do here, they had no idea.

Whatever!

Since we're here, let's eat and drink!

"Frost, here, try this Holy Snow Spirit Fruit!"

"This is good stuff, blooms once every three hundred years, bears fruit once every three hundred years, only occasionally found in extremely cold places, too precious!"

"We can only eat such spiritual fruits here at the Mu family, usually can't get them!"

Jiang Wuxu peeled a spiritual fruit for Su Qingshuang, praising it.

Then he peeled one for himself, eating it with great relish.

Everyone else watched, their eyelids twitching.

Really not caring about the image of a Holy Ancestor?

When Jiang Wuxu grabbed another bunch of grape-like spiritual fruits, ready to continue his feast, Jian Lingtian finally couldn't take it anymore.

He suddenly stood up.

Immediately, everyone's eyes were drawn to him.

"Frost Heaven Emperor, Holy Ancestor Wuxu."

"Have you decided whether, after the Emperor's Son is born, he will join my Hidden Sword Mountain?"

He asked directly.

He really couldn't hold back anymore!

However, Jian Lingtian's words left everyone present, except Mu Nantian, puzzled.

Even Mu Qingchen, at this moment, once again looked up at Su Qingshuang.
