Chapter 7: Xia Branch Family
Dining Room
When Xia Tian arrived at the dining room, three people were already waiting for him: Liu Ying, a back-length white-haired old man in his sixties, and a middle-aged woman in her thirties.
From the memories of the real Xia Tian, the back-length white-haired man was Xia Ling, Xia Tian's grandfather. For a cultivator, a person in their sixties is still relatively young. But Xia Ling's case was different; he started his cultivation in his thirties, and although he was late in starting his cultivation, he had an extraordinary mentality, talent, and comprehension. In just twenty-five years, he had broken through to the Heaven Origin Realm and became a respected general in the Zhu Kingdom.
However, a few years ago, an incident made him distraught, desperate, and devastated. Because he found his two sons died horribly in the forest, it was what made his hair turn white quickly and made him look so old.
As for the woman, she is Chen Xue, the wife of his late uncle; she is also the first daughter of the Chen Family. She is gorgeous, alluring, and elegant but also old-fashioned. Her face is very beautiful with two beautiful black slanted eyes and two eyebrows that are pretty thick; She also has a slender nose and charming thin red lips. She always wore a quite big dress, but the dress couldn't hide her round breasts, about B-Cup. Even though she already has two children, her body is still well-maintained, and her curves can still be seen clearly.
During these years, the Chen Family had always asked her to come home and remarry another man, but Chen Xue had always refused her family's requests, and she insisted on staying at Xia Manor as a daughter-in-law to raise her two children.
"Grandpa, Mom, Aunt Xue." Xia Tian greeted them respectfully as he walked leisurely into the dining room.
Xia Ling raised his eyebrows, he could feel a strange feeling from his grandson, but he didn't know where the weird feeling came from; he just felt that his grandson had become different.
Even Chen Xue looked at her nephew in surprise. All this time, he had never greeted them respectfully; he had always behaved as he pleased, unruly, rude, and impudent. But she was delighted to see his current demeanor and hoped that her nephew would continue like this.
Xia Tian then sat beside his mother and asked. "Why are you looking at me like that, Grandpa?"
"Did something happen to your head, Brat? Why did you suddenly change so drastically?" Xia Ling asked suspiciously, as he still couldn't shake off his strange feelings towards his grandson.
Xia Tian was stunned for a moment by his grandfather's question, then he chuckled. "Nothing happened to my head, Grandpa. It's just that the previous accident made me realize a lot of things, especially about my attitude over the past few years, so I wanted to change things up and start all over again."
"Well, it's great that you can realize that, and I really hope you can change your old attitude." Xia Ling said with a nod; Chen Xue also nodded in agreement, then he continued. "Is it true what Ying'er told me that you awakened your innate ability?"
"En." Xia Tian nodded to him. "Mom is telling you the truth, Grandpa. Even though I was badly injured earlier, I managed to awaken my innate ability. But still, my innate ability is meaningless if I can't cultivate, even though my self-regeneration is fast, but I can't heal myself if I get injured more badly than before."
Xia Ling sighed heavily upon hearing that. "I'm really sorry, Tian'er. Because of my carelessness back then, it caused your spiritual root to be crippled."
"It's okay, Grandpa. You don't have to regret it; it wasn't your fault." Xia Tian shook his head in reply, glanced at Liu Ying, and inwardly added. 'Looks like she hasn't said anything to them yet, but that's also good; now I'm just waiting for Liu Ying to gather all the ingredients, and after that, I'll restart my cultivation.'
Suddenly Liu Ying sent him a voice transmission. 'I've got three of the five ingredients, Son. As for the Burning Meridian Lotus and the Golden Snake Gall, I still have to wait for the two from the Thousand Treasure Pavilion this afternoon. And after everything is in my hands, I will immediately process them into some liquid as per your instructions, and I hope they can restore your spiritual root.'
Although Liu Ying still didn't believe her son's words, she felt it wouldn't hurt to try it because some of the ingredients he asked for were indeed good for spiritual roots. But she also still felt strange about the Burning Meridian Lotus, because it was not for strengthening one's spiritual roots but only for strengthening one's meridians.
Xia Tian then turned to her, and he nodded with a smile. 'You don't have to worry; you will be shocked when my spiritual root recovers later.'
Suddenly another middle-aged woman walked into the dining room. Unlike Chen Xue and Liu Ying's slightly glamorous appearance, her appearance was much simpler. But even so, she still looked elegant in a light blue dress on the top and white on the bottom. She was quite tall, almost as tall as Xia Tian, her curves were also good, and her breasts were huge, about D-cup.
Her beauty is also not inferior to Chen Xue and Liu Ying; she has waist-length black hair, two beautiful slanted eyes with sword-like eyebrows, and a small nose, but what makes her even more attractive is her tiny pink lips, which are really seductive.
Xia Tian couldn't even take his eyes off her face, to be more precise, from her tiny pink lips, as he was really tempted to kiss her lips.
Sensing his gaze, the middle-aged woman frowned, then she growled. "What are you looking at, Brat!? Do you want me to beat you up!?"
