Chapter 1439: Reunion
As night fell, the servant brought their master and the three disciples up.
Qi Hao and Qi Xuan smirked silently, knowing full well what was on their master Zhu Huai’en’s mind. He waved them off, not letting the family of three bow, and vanished in an instant.
Su Yuanyuan was quite speechless about the Mountain Protection Array of Huai Sheng Mountain; she definitely planned to go to the Deacon Office to exchange for a Seventh or Eighth Rank Array Plate.
After the master left, Qi Hao and Qi Xuan cheered and rushed towards their mother.
The two children had already grown to Su Yuanyuan’s chest; they had indeed grown quite a bit recently.
Su Yuanyuan embraced her two sons, answering their calls with loving responses.
She hugged her sons’ shoulders, saying, "Let’s go make dumplings to eat."
With smiling faces, the two nodded. Their master initially gave them Fasting Pills, which they really couldn’t stand, so their master specifically called two Food Cultivators from the office, responsible for their meals every day. Today, they even brought back a lot of food, which was specially made by the Food Cultivators for their parents and sister.
Once inside the inner room, Qi Hao and Qi Xuan greeted their father and sister.
"Hmph. You two are no longer close to me,"
The two hurriedly took out the Storage Bag and handed it to their sister, "These are dishes made by Food Cultivators. We know what you like, so we brought them back for you specifically."
Qi Wen nodded with a smile, "That’s more like it."
The family enjoyed dumplings for dinner together that brought immense joy. Qi Wen was fond of the Food Cultivator’s dishes. "I will learn cooking in the future."
Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting had no objections. Their daughter had her own plans, and they definitely weren’t worried that this would hinder her cultivation; having cooking skills was actually quite beneficial, allowing her to make meals for herself.
Tan Shaoting set the Fifth-rank Array Plate, and the family entered the space.
Su Yuanyuan had numerous wonderful items to give her two sons.
She took out her second prize to let the little ones choose.
Qi Wen also took out her prize. The little ones had gained a lot of insight and honestly don’t lack much.
Yet they chose two pieces because it was their mother and sister’s intention.
Su Yuanyuan shared the gains from the secret realm with the father and sons, although they couldn’t use them now; who knows what the future might need?
The family has a habit of ensuring everyone has access to good items.
They weren’t worried about the little ones’ cultivation, thanks to the benefit of having a master.
Discussing their experiences one by one, the little ones lived vibrant lives. Zhu Huai’en knew a lot and taught the two disciples.
By now, the little ones’ mastery of spells was extremely precise. Until dawn, the family was still reluctant to part.
Arriving on schedule, the two little ones, exercising great self-discipline. With the time up, the family exited the array. Then, the kids practiced their sword skills on the side.
The family of three stood watching, observing that their sword forms had become quite skillful.
Zhu Huai’en appeared. He merely nodded to the family of three before leaving with the two children who waved them goodbye with smiles.
Su Yuanyuan sighed, knowing it would be a long time until they met again.
The steward came over to inform them that the award ceremony would occur five days later.
The whole family was to receive rewards.
Over these five days, they would stay in Huai Sheng Mountain, reflect, and summarize their experiences.
In the space, Su Yuanyuan watched the long-armed ape leap around energetically.
"What on earth is making you so excited?"
"The old thing gave us three tree roots, including a Coiling Dragon Tree Root."
"A Coiled Dragon Tree?"
"Yes, it’s the world’s hardest tree, with even a branch rivaling a Spiritual Artifact."
"That’s a treasure. Why are you getting so worked up?"
"There is also an Immortal Peach Tree Root."
"So it can bear peaches in the future."
The long-armed ape kept nodding on the side.
Su Yuanyuan knew monkeys loved peaches.
"Master, the last root is the Tree Mother’s root."
"Tree Mother?"
"The ancestor of all Gen Sheng."
"That’s incredible. We should give it to Qi Hong, then. We don’t have any use for it."
"Why wouldn’t it be useful? I have already soaked the root in Spiritual Spring Water. Master, you also need to use your Spiritual Power to water it."
Su Yuanyuan had no objections, appreciating such a good item.
"Master, the Tree Mother can more firmly stabilize the space in your future, making it a self-contained world."
"That impressive?"
"Absolutely, we can’t give it to Qi Hong right now. Their space level is too low, and theirs may collapse instead."
"I understand. Carefully cultivate the Tree Mother’s root, tell me if you need anything. Though we can’t pass them out now, we’ll eventually. You should prepare to divide them for each person in the future."
"Yes, I will, but it won’t happen anytime soon."
"Alright, take your time to prepare. By the way, where’s the item the Artifact Spirit told me I needed?"
Su Yuanyuan’s hand appeared with a Storage Bag. It was different from ordinary ones, gleaming gold.
Her Divine Sense probed inside; a Jade Scroll and two Jade Boxes were inside.
Taking out the Jade Scroll, she swept it with her Divine Sense. Her face lit up with delight. Examining the Jade Boxes, one contained Shaping Fruit, while the other held a golden item resembling a Golden Core.
She couldn’t recognize it, speculating it might be a Fake Pill introduced earlier. Forty turned out to be the previous year’s Shaping Fruit seeds.
"Master, what is this?"
"The most valuable item inside."
The long-armed ape was unimpressed. Wasn’t the most valuable the three tree roots? Could Coiled Dragon Tree and Immortal Peach rival the Tree Mother?
Su Yuanyuan paid no mind to the long-armed ape, exited the space holding the Storage Bag.
Outside, Tan Shaoting perused a Sword Manual, not for his own learning, but gaining insight into the moves other Sword Cultivators use. It was his hobby.
Seeing his wife’s delighted expression, he hugged her shoulder smilingly.
"What’s up?"
"Look?"
Tan Shaoting probed with his Divine Sense, initially puzzled, then elated. This was tailored for him.
He had Dual Spirit Roots, only one Golden Core, even unable to use the Spiritual Pearl he always had.
The Cultivation Technique opened a new Dantian in the body, allowing each Spirit Root to have its own attribute-driven Dantian. This doubled the Spiritual Power storage compared to a Single Spirit Root, having two Dantians.
Su Yuanyuan saw Tan Shaoting’s delighted expression, "Look at the two Jade Boxes too."
Tan Shaoting’s eyes sparkled as he opened the boxes, after which he excitedly hugged Su Yuanyuan.
"I no longer need to worry about your Spiritual Power in the future."
"Yes, thank you so much, my wife."
Su Yuanyuan was genuinely happy for Tan Shaoting. He would soon possess spiritual power many times more than other cultivators.
