At the time when Ling Yun was strolling downtown, Yi Mingxia and the Yi twins were gathered in Song Mei's room, and she was checking on her mother's condition again. Before long, she had retracted her qi and said. "Your body is getting better now, but since you've been sick for too long, we still have to supply your body with nutritious food, Mom."
"Thank you; I'm really glad that you are willing to come here to see me, Mingxia." Song Me said as she rubbed her eldest daughter's hand; despite this, she felt guilty towards her because her past decision to support her former son-in-law had caused her years of pain.
Understanding her mother's thoughts, Yi Mingxia rubbed her hand. "As I told you before, you don't have to think about everything that has passed anymore, Mom. I already have a happy life, and I will continue to be happy in the future."
"That's right, Grandma. Aunt Mingxia is happy now, so you'd better forget about the past." Yi Shu joined in as she sat on the side of her grandmother's bed. "Moreover, Aunt Mingxia has reunited with Ling'er now, and she also has Yun'er by her side."
"Is it true that you have reunited with Ling'er, Mingxia?" Yi Mingxia answered her with a nod and a smile, which made Song Mei feel a little relieved. "Then where is Yun'er? Why isn't he here?"
"This is Yun'er's first time going to another city, so he wants to take a walk downtown first, Mom." Yi Mingxia sighed in her heart, noticing her mother's expression as she asked her son; she then turned to her niece. "Why don't you teach her how to cultivate, Shu'er?"
"We wanted to teach grandma how to cultivate, but Master told us to wait for her to recover first, Aunt Mingxia." Yi Shi, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up.
Song Mei then asked in confusion. "What do you mean by cultivating? Is it like the kung fu masters in the movies?"
"Something like that, Mom." Yi Mingxia then lifted her mother to sit on the bed, and she moved to sit behind her to support her body. "Sit cross-legged, close your eyes, then follow my pointer, Mom."
"Alright." Song Mei did as her eldest daughter said.
Yi Mingxia then started to explain to her about cultivation and cultivators, she also taught her how to absorb Qi in the air, and Song Mei listened to her eldest daughter's words carefully.
After she finished explaining everything, Yi Mingxia asked her mother to try to absorb the Qi in the air. Song Mei immediately did as she explained, even though she already understood her eldest daughter's explanation, but she kept failing to absorb the Qi from the air.
An hour later, Yi Mingxia and Yi twins breathed a sigh of relief after Song Mei managed to absorb Qi, and they could only wait for her to finish filling her dantian with Qi, only then would she officially become a cultivator.
'Although grandma has successfully absorbed qi, but her absorption rate is too slow.' Yi Shu muttered inwardly.
Yi Shi, who had a special connection with her as they were twins, kept looking at their grandmother with repeated nods; he agreed with her thoughts.
Yi Mingxia also felt the same way with them. 'Sigh, it's probably because her condition hasn't completely recovered yet, that's why her absorption rate is too slow compared to when we first became cultivators.'
Two hours later, they felt a small shockwave release from Song Mei's body, it was a sign that she was already a cultivator, and her cultivation was at the Lower Spiritualist Realm. Soon, she opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, then she said. "This is great, Mingxia I can feel my body recovering faster after I absorbed the qi."
"Of course, because qi is very beneficial to our body, Grandma." Yi Shu said with a chuckle; she then hugged her grandmother and continued. "Not only will you recover faster, but your body will also become stronger each time your cultivation breaks through, and you will also be more immune to common illnesses."
Song Mei nodded in understanding, she then asked. "Then what about Jie'er and Mingzhu? Are they also cultivators?"
"Mingzhu has been a cultivator for about two weeks, Mom." Yi Mingxia then paused and thought for a moment before she continued. "As for Yi Jie, he can't be a cultivator like us because he doesn't have spiritual veins."
Hearing that, Song Mei's expression became gloomy, she was now a cultivator who could live a long life, while her son was just an ordinary person who had a short life. Even though one's life and death were preordained, no parent wanted to witness the death of their child.
Yi Shu caressed her grandmother back and said. "I know how you feel, Grandma. I and Shi feel the same way about you, but Father has long since accepted his fate. Even though it's very sad for us, but we can't do anything for him. Since he doesn't have spiritual veins, he can never become a cultivator like us."
Song Mei inwardly sighed and nodded, Yi Mingxia then put the Beauty Returning Pill into her mother's mouth. "Swallow this pill, and you will like the effect of the pill, Mom."
Even though she didn't know about the pill, Song Mei swallowed it without hesitation, she knew for a fact that her eldest daughter would never harm her.
After that, Yi Mingxia immediately covered her nose with Qi, as she already knew how putrid the black liquid her mother's body would soon release.
Minutes later, the Yi twins felt nauseous as their grandma's body was covered in the black liquid. Song Mei herself also felt the same as them, and she almost fainted from the stench. Fortunately, Yi Mingxia immediately used her qi to dissipate the black liquid, but the smell still lingered.
Yi Shu and Yi Shi's eyes widened when they saw their grandma's new appearance because her appearance was no longer that of a woman in her late sixties; she was now more like a woman in her early thirties, and even the wrinkles in her body disappeared completely.
Song Mei looked at her two grandchildren in confusion. "What's wrong with you two? Why are you guys reacting like that?"
Hearing that, the twins exchanged glances for a moment, Yi Shu then took out a mirror from her storage ring and handed it to their grandma. "You can see for yourself, Grandma."
"Huh!?" Song Mei was shocked when she saw her reflection in the mirror, she kept rubbing her face in disbelief. "How... How can I return to my youthful appearance?"
"This is the effect of the pill you swallowed just now, Mom. I, Mingzhu, Ling'er, and Ling Yin have also swallowed the same pill." Yi Mingxia explained as she hugged her mother from behind and looked at her through the mirror. "Did you like it?"
"En, I like it." Song Mei replied with a nod.
After that, Yi Mingxia escorted Song Mei to the bathroom, and she helped her to get rid of the stench.
