Feng Yuhua and Luo Xiuran emerged from the house, radiant smiles on both of their faces.
Luo Shu stepped forward and handed Feng Yuhua a Cultivation Secret Manual. "Big aunt, from now on, you should cultivate with this Secret Manual." The previous manual mainly focused on Meridian Healing, but now that her meridians have been healed, naturally, she no longer needed to cultivate with that manual.
Feng Yuhua accepted the Cultivation Secret Manual, gratefully holding Luo Shu’s hand. "Shushu, I really don’t know how to thank you properly."
Luo Shu replied with a coquettish laugh, "Big aunt, why are you treating me like an outsider? Don’t you consider me part of the family?"
"You child!" Feng Yuhua affectionately stroked Luo Shu’s head, her eyes brimming with tender smiles.
"Mom! Mom!" Luo Qianyi’s voice came from afar.
Everyone looked up to see Luo Xiuye, Qin Mengyao, Luo Qianxun, and Luo Qianyi approaching them.
Luo Qianyi quickly reached Luo Shu’s side. "Sister, I heard from second brother that you found a Nine-Leaf Lotus Seed for mom, is it true?" He had wanted to go pick up his sister today but as the captain of the team, he couldn’t leave on the day of the team competition.
Luo Shu nodded habitually and reached out to pinch Luo Qianyi’s chubby cheeks. She thought he would dodge, but instead, he let her pinch his cheeks with a smile.
"Why didn’t you dodge?" Luo Shu asked with a smile.
"You found the Nine-Leaf Lotus Seed for my mom, so letting you pinch my face is nothing," Luo Qianyi said matter-of-factly, blinking his watery eyes. "Sister, did you give mom the Nine-Leaf Lotus Seed already?"
Luo Shu smiled and withdrew her hand, patting Luo Qianyi’s head. "Yes, your mother’s meridians have recovered."
Luo Qianyi jumped up excitedly. "Wow! Sister, you are so wonderful! I love you to death!"
He ran quickly towards Luo Qianxun and the others. "Third uncle, third aunt, big brother, did you hear that? My mom’s meridians have been healed, haha..."
Seeing Luo Qianyi’s exuberant jumping and hopping, everyone couldn’t help but wear a smile.
"Spread the word, starting today, we will celebrate with a feast for three days," Luo Xiuran announced loudly to everyone present.
"Good!" The crowd responded in unison, faces aglow with joy.
The group went back inside the house and took their seats in the hall.
"Shushu, I heard from Qian Yu that you went to the True Cultivation Sect recently. Tell us what happened," Luo Xiuran asked Luo Shu. He was very interested in the legendary True Cultivation Sect.
Luo Shu nodded and started to recount her experiences to everyone in detail.
Everyone listened with rapt attention, their expressions filled with longing. The Divine Doctor Family had begun True Cultivation, and soon, they too would enter the real True Cultivation World.
Feng Yuhua appeared contemplative. She was the only one among them who had had an encounter with True Cultivation. Previously, they had asked her about the True Cultivation World, but at the time, she couldn’t delve too deeply. For Ancient Martial Families, the True Cultivation World was forever out of reach, and knowing too much would not benefit them.
But now things were different. The Divine Doctor Family had become a True Cultivation Family, so everything was no longer just a fantasy. As long as they worked hard, the achievements of the Divine Doctor Family in the future might not be inferior to other True Cultivation Families.
Thinking of her family, Feng Yuhua’s expression grew somewhat melancholic. She wondered under what circumstances they would meet again in the future?
Luo Shu glanced at Feng Yuhua. She didn’t want to share the encounter with the Feng Family with her, to avoid making her unhappy upon hearing it.
In the Disciple Court, everyone was diligently cultivating. Although the head of the family said they could relax for three days, they preferred to cultivate. Moreover, they wanted to achieve first place in the next team competition.
Luo Shu entered the Disciple Court and saw everyone seated in the lotus position on the ground, cultivating earnestly, and a satisfied smile crept across her lips.
She sat down to one side, also in the lotus position, and began to meditate. Although her meridians were fully healed after this injury, she felt that the flow of Spiritual Power within her body was not as fast as before. She didn’t know if it was because she had advanced in Qi Refinement or if it was an aftereffect of the Meridian Healing.
As time passed, people gradually emerged from their cultivation state, and upon noticing Luo Shu, everyone showed a happy smile but tacitly did not disturb her.
Luo Shu came out of her meditative state, opened her eyes, and saw everyone looking at her with joyful expressions, to which she replied with a slight smile.
"Big sister, your aura is so strong! What level is your Cultivation now?"
"I encountered some problems during my cultivation. Big sister, can you guide me?"
"Big sister, are you going to stay with us for a few more days this time?" Everyone asked eagerly, excitement on their faces.
If you were to ask them who they admired the most now, it would definitely be Luo Shu, for she had introduced them to cultivation, opening a window they had never imagined and showing them a different world.
Luo Shu looked at them with a smile. "With so many of you asking, whom should I answer first?"
"Then we’ll ask one by one, and you can answer one by one," Luo Qi suggested with a smile.
"Alright then!" Luo Shu nodded, smiling in agreement.
Luo Shu stayed in the Disciple Court for a long time until dusk before she said goodbye to everyone.
As she passed Lake Heart Pavilion, she saw Luo Qianyu sitting in the pavilion alone, drinking tea, and she approached with a smile, "Brother, indulging in such leisure?"
Luo Qianyu smiled, picked up the teapot, and poured Luo Shu a cup. "Waiting for you."
"Waiting for me?" Luo Shu asked in surprise.
Luo Qianyu nodded, sipping his tea. "I have a few personal questions I’d like to ask you."
Luo Shu arched an eyebrow, "Well, let’s hear them!"
"I want to know, when a girl clearly has feelings for a boy, why would she run away?" Luo Qianyu asked. He had pondered this question for a long time, but could never come up with an answer. Shushu was a girl; she should know, shouldn’t she?
"Have you fallen for a girl?" Luo Shu looked at Luo Qianyu with a raised eyebrow, curiosity in her voice. He went to Jinchen University to teach; it wasn’t just to chase after the girl, was it? In her previous life, she hadn’t heard anything about this. Could it be that the girl he was pursuing now was not their mother?
