Chapter 53 (1/2)

The night passed without incident.

Lu Xuan ended his training in the morning, stretching for a bit before walking out of the door. His mother, Liu Wanrong, made breakfast. It was porridge.

His father, Lu Tianxiang, read the news on his tablet as he ate porridge. A pretty child who looked to be of three to four years of age was sitting beside Lu Tianxiang, eating her porridge rather seriously.

“Bwader!” The child was happy to see Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan looked at her youngest sister, Lu Guoguo, and that reminded him of how she had been a corpse the last time he saw her in his past life.

The child was caught in his mess and was killed because of him. She was unable to even see the world much before departing.

That was what caused Lu Xuan the most pain back in his past life. However, he was determined not to let any of that happen in his present life.

Lu Xuan went up and pinched his little sister’s face and laughed. “Long time no see. Did you miss your ‘bwader’?”

It was more than just a long time, as it had been a lifetime since he last saw her.

Guoguo extended her hand and asked in a child-like manner, “I miss you. I want a hug!”

Lu Xuan picked Guoguo up and quickly found the little one spilling all the porridge in her mouth onto him.

“Oh my, you little monster!”

Lu Xuan felt exasperated and amused at the same time. He pinched her face a little and put her down.

His little sister chuckled away, looking pleased with herself.

“Son, I heard what you told your mother last night. I don’t know much about cultivation, but I trust the choice you made.”

Lu Tianxiang stood up and clapped his son’s shoulder for a bit.

“Alright, teach me all about cultivation when you get home tonight. I need to go to work now, and I’ll be sending Guoguo to the nursery along the way,” Lu Tianxiang said.

“Forget the nursery for a few days, Dad. Let me handle her instead,” Lu Xuan said all of a sudden.

“Gweat, I wanna pway with bwader!” Guoguo clapped her hands as she exclaimed, looking very happy.

“No problem.” Lu Tianxiang nodded. “I’ll tell her teacher in the nursery about this later then.”

Lu Tianxiang was unable to place it, but Lu Xuan seemed to be rather different from how he used to be since he came back. Unlike how he behaved in the past, he felt rather mature at the moment.

He felt so matured that Lu Tianxiang felt that he seemed to have gone through a lot.

Both Lu Tianxiang and Liu Wanrong left the house for work before long, leaving only Lu Xuan taking care of his little sister at home.

“What we playin’ today, bwader?” Guoguo asked in a child-like voice.

“How about I teach you cultivation?” Lu Xuan pinched her little chubby face and asked.

“What is cultivation?” The little girl’s huge eyes blinked, having no idea what cultivation was.

Lu Xuan checked his little sister’s body for a bit and was stunned with what he found. He realized just how developed her constitution was. All of her meridians were innately unlocked, which meant that she was born with natural spiritual aptitude.

Such innate spiritual aptitude was surprising. Having one’s meridians all innately unlocked meant that one would be a natural prodigy at cultivation.

Such a genius would have a far easier time picking up anything regarding cultivation. They would easily become top-notch figures among their peers of the same age if they were to embark on the path of cultivation. They were meant for great things in the future if they were to not die an early death.

Lu Xuan knew of such constitution very well, but he himself was one of such constitution, to begin with.
