Sienna watched them carefully. "Right now, the child does not need cultivation and only needs a body worthy of the blood already forming inside it. Stronger meridians, denser bones, greater vitality and a spiritual foundation broad enough that when cultivation eventually begins, the body will not become the first thing holding the baby back."
Melissa's hand unconsciously tightened over her stomach.
"Will my baby be so... strong?"
For the first time, something almost resembling dry amusement touched Sienna's expression.
"Mother." Melissa looked at Sienna. "This child has not been born yet and Great Immortal god essence is already being refined through your body just to nourish that growth."
Melissa blinked.
Sienna's gaze returned to her abdomen. "I would be more surprised if the baby were weak even less stronger than they're already."
Melissa knew that better than almost anyone.
