Yin SuSu had been going into labor for over half a day now. It's just that with Xie Xun walking outside, she couldn't tell her husband, for it might break his concentration. But at this critical moment, she no longer cared for all that. Yin SuSu bit her teeth, got up, and threw her sword at Zhang CuiShan.
Zhang CuiShan grabbed the sword, thought, "This person's kung fu is far superior to mine. Even if I attack him, he's bound to take the sword away from me." But then he realized, "His eyes are blind. The only reason he took my branch is because it made a sound."
Just as he understood this, Xie Xun let out a laugh, and began to climb up again. Zhang CuiShan saw exactly where he would climb up, pointed his sword down at Xie Xun's head, and did not move. Xie Xun climbed up with immense speed, going exactly towards the point of the sword, which gave no noise while remaining motionless. No matter how great Xie Xun's kung fu, he could not possibly detect the sword. Only to see the sword pierce into Xie Xun's head, who immediately let out a scream. When the sword entered about a centimeter into his head, Xie Xun quickly reacted, changing his direction in the opposite manner, immediately falling back into the hole. Had he been late by even a second, the sword would've killed him. However, even though his life is fine, the sword still made a serious wound. Blood poured down Xie Xun's face, as the sword stuck on top of his head.
Xie Xun took out the sword and tore out a piece of cloth to cover the wound. He knew that his wound is serious, but nonetheless did not care. Taking out his Dragon Saber to protect his head, Xie Xun tried for the third time to climb out. Zhang CuiShan tried to throw rocks at him, but Xie Xun cut them down with the Dragon Saber. With his saber shining brightly, Xie Xun climbed out of the hole, began to walk towards Zhang CuiShan. Zhang CuiShan backed off step by step. He felt saddened, for today he will die with Yin SuSu, never to see his child born.
Xie Xun didn't want Zhang CuiShan or Yin SuSu to walk past him to leave the cave. For then, he'd have no way to catch them. So with the sword in his left hand and the Dragon Saber in his right, Xie Xun unleashed techniques that covered a lot of area, sealing a five-meter width besides him which no one could go past.
When suddenly, he heard a 'Waaaaahhhhh' sound, as the sound of a baby's cry came out of the inner cave. Xie Xun gasped in shock. He immediately stopped walking and froze, hearing the baby cry continuously.
Zhang CuiShan and Yin SuSu realized that they were going to die. So they forgot all about Xie Xun, and instead put all their attention on the newly born baby. The baby is a son, his arms and legs kept moving, while crying loudly. Zhang and Yin realized that once Xie Xun's saber came slicing down, both of them, plus the baby, would all immediately die. Neither spoke, their gaze on the baby. Both thanked fate for being so kind, allowing them to see their baby before death. Even a single extra moment right now, meant a single extra blessing to them. In this instant, the couple felt an unusual serenity, not thinking at all about their future. Obviously, both wanted the child to live on, but since this was impossible, they did not dare to hope.
Only to hear the baby cry continuously, when suddenly, Xie Xun's conscience reappeared, his madness dissipated. He suddenly remembered the moment his whole family was killed, for it was soon after his wife gave birth. His child died that day too. This baby's cry made him remember many things in his past: The love between him and his wife, the brutality of his enemy, the innocent baby thrown by his enemy into the wall and turning into a bloody pulp, cutting off his own finger, trying to get revenge, only to fail each time, getting the Dragon saber, but unable to find its secret… He stood in a trance, sometimes smiling, sometimes biting his teeth.
Right before this moment, the three of them were in a life and death duel, but after the baby cried, all of them suddenly turned their attention to the baby.
Xie Xun suddenly asked, "Is the baby a boy or a girl?" Zhang CuiShan said, "He's a boy." Xie Xun said, "That's good. Have you cut the umbilical cord yet? Zhang CuiShan said, "Do I need to? Oh, yes, of course. I totally forgot."
Xie Xun turned the sword around, gave it to Zhang CuiShan. Zhang CuiShan took the sword and cut off the umbilical cord. Only then did he realize that Xie Xun was by his side, yet did not try to kill them. In fact, he looked very concerned, as if trying to help out.
Yin SuSu said weakly, "Let me hold him." Zhang CuiShan put the baby into her arms. Xie Xun then said, "Do you have some hot water to give the baby a bath?" Zhang CuiShan said, "Oh, I can't believe this. I didn't prepare for anything. What an useless dad I am." He quickly got up to go prepare for some hot water. But after he took a step, Zhang CuiShan saw Xie Xun standing right next to the baby, and stopped in fear for his child. Xie Xun said, "Why don't you watch over the baby with your wife. I'll prepare the water. While speaking, he put the Dragon Saber back on his waist and walked out the cave. As he passed by the hole, Xie Xun simply jumped over it.
After a while, Xie Xun really did come back with a tub of hot water. Zhang CuiShan then gave the baby a bath. Hearing the baby's cry, Xie Xun asked, "Does the child look like his mom or dad?" Zhang CuiShan smiled, said, "More like his mom. Not too heavy, he has a melon-seed-shaped head." Xie Xun sighed, said quietly, "Hopefully, he'll have good luck when he grows up, and not endure too many hardships." Yin SuSu said, "Elder Xie, are you saying that the baby's appearance is unlucky?" Xie Xun said, "No. It's just that if the child looked like you, he'd be too handsome. I was just afraid that his good fortune is too thin. And when he enters society, will face much difficulty." Zhang CuiShan said with a smile, "Elder, you're thinking too far into the future. We're now at a deserted island by the North Pole. This child will live and die here. How can he possibly return to society?"
Yin SuSu said in a hurry, "No, No! We don't have to return, but do you really want our child to live here forever? When all three of us die, who will accompany him? After he grows up, how is he going to get married and have kids?" Yin SuSu had always been vicious while living under the Heavenly Eagle Sect's influence. But ever since she became married to Zhang CuiShan, Yin SuSu turned gentler and kinder. Now that she's a mother, her heart is only filled with love for her son, and only wished the best for him.
Zhang CuiShan looked at her, massaged her hair, thought, "We're thousands of miles from mainland. How can we possibly get back?" But he didn't want to hurt her feelings, and remained silent.
Xie Xun suddenly said, "Mrs. Zhang is right. The three of us don't really have any future. But there's no way we can let this child grow up and die here, never to enjoy the life of a normal person. Mrs. Zhang, the three of us should come up with a way to get this child back to mainland."
