That night, Cheng Xiao Xiao had Yutengcame to a.s.sist her in expanding their farm again. In the past they could onlyhave around 20 mythical animals; after Yuteng’s magical pointing, the range wasincreased by 3 folds. Now it could hold up to 100 or so mythical animals.
Not only was the ranch expanded, the pensand the coops were upgraded as well.
Members of the Cheng’s took a strollthrough the ranch when it was all done and everybody was happy about theoutcome. Cheng Xiao Xiao released tens of young adult mythical animals andinfant mythical animals. The range looked beautiful and the young ones wererunning after the chickens and the ducks, happy laughter filled the range.
Mrs. Cheng smiled tenderly and ChengBiyuan took on the duty of sweeping the animals’ waste to one side of the rangeto make the overly clean range looked more realistic.
The entire family busied themselves for anhours before they returned to rest in the courtyard.
“Xiao Xiao, what you said were all true?”asked Cheng Biyuan in disbelief.
Smiling, Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded, “Yes,dad. I saw Yuteng infuse a wild ginseng with spiritual air with my own eyes.You could see the growth spur of the wild ginseng with naked eyes, so, I thinkwhat she said was true!”
“Wonderful! Wonderful!” Cheng Biyuandidn’t expect little Yuteng to have this kind of ability. A happy look appearedon his face, “If I can have some 5,000 year old ginseng, never mind mid-levelmartial master, I could even shoot for expert martial master!”
“I have faith in you, dad!” She knew thather father tried very hard, but she was quite lazy herself. However, since shehad the dimension, one day of cultivation for her equated to other’s 10 days inthe outside world. Even though she hasn’t been trying too hard, but after amonth’s worth of work, she’s already level one novice. Far from martialapprentice, but compare to your normal commoners, she was still quite advanced.
Even Cheng Zheng Yuan was only a levelnovice, still a ways from martial apprentice!
After having lunch and the parents retiredto have a rest, Cheng Zheng Yuan grabbed his sister and dragged her out of thehouse. Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t know where he wanted to go, “Zheng Yuan, what hadgotten into you?”
“Big sister, I want to go into themountains!” said a very determined Cheng Zheng Yuan.
Cheng Xiao Xiao was very surprised anddidn’t understand why he wanted to go into the mountains all of a sudden, soshe asked, “Why? We have plenty of firewood at home. You don’t need to go intothe mountains!”
“Big sister, I didn’t want to go forfirewood. I want to go for wild ginseng!”
“What? To look for wild ginseng?” ChengXiao Xiao was even more surprised, “Why? You want to breakthrough faster also?”
When they were in the courtyard discussingabout wild ginseng, Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t mention the part about thedimension. She only said that if their father can somehow get hold of a 5,000year old wild ginseng, he will be able to breakthrough to the next level. Shewas just surprised that her brother also wants to look for wild ginseng.
Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t sure how to reactto that one. Their parents were the only other ones who knew about thedimension, but not the two brothers and the sister. They were still young andthey didn’t want them to say wrong things in front of wrong people.
“Yes, big sister. I want to cultivate atthe fastest speed possible. The faster the better! The stronger the better!”said Cheng Zheng Yuan with a heroic look. His hands balled into fists and hiseyes filled with desire to become strong.
It was nice that he was determined, butCheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t certain where this strong desire came from all of asudden, “Zheng Yuan, why did you think that?”
“Big sister….” Looking into the clear eyesof his older sister, his was even more determined, “Big sister, I won’t let youget hurt again. I want to become strong. I want to protect our family and notlet another one of you get hurt by anything. Dad said that is theresponsibility of a Cheng’s men. If we can’t even defend our own family, wearen’t worthwhile to practice martial arts, or be your family member!
