Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 545: Chapter 214: Can He Handle Heaven?

First, enhancing power.

Currently, his body has reached Great Success, and what’s left is to slowly condense the Innate Qi and fill his body with it.

Second, show off in front of the villagers so that in times of difficulty, he can lead everyone through hardships.

Xu Ran was confident that with his extensive experience, even if a Poisonous Snake attacked the village, he could easily resolve it.

Soon, night fell, and smoke curled up from Xu Ran’s home, the smell of cooking wafting from the kitchen chimney where Lian Ji was preparing dinner.

Shortly, Xu Binghu returned to the yard with his spoils and a bag of Beast Milk, immediately heading into the kitchen. Sniffing the air with satisfaction, he said,

”My wife’s cooking is amazing; the food is so delicious. I’m truly lucky to enjoy such culinary skills in this lifetime!”

Lian Ji glanced at him and said, ”Smooth talker, haven’t you gotten tired of eating my cooking for so long?”

”How could I ever get tired? I won’t tire of it my whole life!”

With some light-hearted banter between the couple, Xu Binghu went to freshen up, and Lian Ji, after finishing her tasks, handled the Beast Milk and placed it in front of Xu Ran.

At that moment, Xu Ran was sitting cross-legged on the bed, his eyes closed, deeply focused.

Seeing this, Lian Ji merely glanced at him, set the Beast Milk down before him, and left.

Though she was a bit puzzled, as Xu Ran had always meditated in the center of the yard, and now after noon he had returned to meditate on the bed, yet seeing no issue, she left.

Her son had too many secrets, ones she couldn’t fathom, and all she needed to know was that her son was healthy.

Xu Ran opened his eyes, picked up the Beast Milk placed in front of him, and sipped it mouthful by mouthful.

Now, with an indestructible wisp of moonlight and dawn within his body, he no longer needed to meditate in the center of the yard, and he wasn’t one to endure discomfort either, so why not meditate on the bed where it was more comfortable.

As Xu Ran sipped, he carefully considered the next steps.

Soon, he heard the sound of his father, Xu Binghu, finishing his ablutions and heading straight to the kitchen.

”In four months’ time, the Innate Spirit Body will evolve into the Innate Divine Body, the vocal cords have also become stronger; now I can speak,” Xu Ran thought.

Previously, Xu Ran hadn’t spoken because he could clearly feel that his vocal cords were too fragile, and any attempt to speak would likely damage them, so he hadn’t spoken at all.

But now, with the completion of the Innate Divine Body, his entire body had undergone another baptism, the vocal cords strengthened and more robust, allowing him to speak.

Since he could speak, there was no way he would babble incoherently like a baby to express his meaning, even though he technically was a baby.

Immediately, he grabbed the Beast Milk, and with steps that were wobbly yet his body extremely balanced, he walked to the kitchen. In the astonished eyes of Lian Ji and Xu Binghu, he climbed onto a chair, his legs dangling and swinging in the air.

Lian Ji, ”Does Xiao Ran want to have dinner with us? How wonderful!”

Xu Binghu, ”When Xiao Ran grows a bit older, he can enjoy his mother’s delicious meals.”

While teasing Xu Ran, Xu Binghu wouldn’t miss the chance to praise his wife’s delicious meals.

Lian Ji, hearing this, was very happy, watching Xu Binghu and Xu Ran with a joyful face, feeling utter bliss.

And Xu Ran, putting down the Beast Milk, pouting, said, ”I’m a child; it’s better to drink milk!”

Lian Ji laughed, ”Right! Our Xiao Ran is still a kid, and it’s good to have Beast Milk, nutritious and full of goodness, he’ll surely grow into a strong man!”

Xu Binghu, ”Exactly! Our Xiao Ran... wait a minute!”

Xu Binghu suddenly shouted loudly, ”Wait, who was speaking just now?”

Lian Ji then realized too, how could their four-month-old son possibly speak?

”Who is it?”

The couple looked around, trying to spot any clue.

At this moment, Xu Ran raised his small hand and said, ”It’s me, your dear son speaking!”

The two followed the little hand, looking toward the source of the voice, and found that indeed, it was their son Xu Ran speaking.

The couple went from initial confusion to surprise now.

Lian Ji quickly picked up Xu Ran, carefully wiping the milk beside his mouth.

”Xu Ran is just four months old, and he can already speak; he’s truly a prodigy!”

Xu Binghu agreed, ”Now that Xu Ran can speak, his mother won’t feel so lonely at home!”

Lian Ji glanced at him, ”I’m not lonely at home with Xiao Ran; even watching him sleep is not at all boring.”

”Haha, my wife speaks the truth!”

After dinner, the couple kept teasing Xu Ran, encouraging him to talk more, preventing him from only saying one sentence.

Xu Ran was quite helpless. How could he not know his parents’ thoughts? Smoothly answering their questions, they were very satisfied, completely affirming that their son could truly speak fluently and logically, unlike a child just learning to talk.

Even though the couple had known their son was a genius for some time, the series of extraordinary events still made them feel disoriented.

And Xu Ran, in this dinnertime talk, expressed his desire to go out.

Upon learning their son’s intention, Xu Binghu also chose not to go hunting in the mountains, insisting on accompanying Xu Ran and Lian Ji wandering around the village, claiming he needed to protect mother and son.

However, Xu Ran knew at heart, saying it was for protection, but in fact, it was to show off, that his son was a genius. In just four months, he could walk fluently, and now could speak; this, when told, would certainly fill him with pride!
