Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1354: Chapter 1354: Taking Care

Chen Xue Man sighed, this young one is truly clear-sighted; such a person, it’s impossible not to succeed.

”Young one, keep yourself busy, I’m going to wander around. Also, when you’re done, come find me at the hall at the mountaintop.”

”Alright, senior.”

Su Yuanyuan is currently inspecting the array. Although she’s not a formally trained Array Master, she can now engrave third-tier array plates, so she can spot some minor issues with the Bishui Peak’s array.

She’s naturally a conscientious person. Since she’s taken on this task, she will certainly complete it seriously.

The array at Bishui Peak is indeed quite complex; it’s not something that can be completed in a day or two.

This is good too, it allows more time for that senior.

Tan Shaoting is here training swords with his two sons; the trio has attracted a lot of attention.

Especially the younger two, since last time at the Beast Taming Sect, Tan Shaoting announced the two young ones wanted to join the Sword Sect, which drew more focus on them.

Seeing their talent in swordsmanship, how could anyone be willing to let them leave? Now they were just waiting for the two young ones to have their Spirit Roots tested before talking further.

Tan Shaoting set a rule for his two young sons that they must swing their swords no less than ten thousand times a day. The peach wood sword is too light for them now, so Tan Shaoting gave them the sect-issued Spirit Swords.

Although the level isn’t high, it can change in size.

Everyone in the sword field watches the father and sons; the two young ones are disciplined enough, swinging swords by themselves, while Tan Shaoting practices on the side.

Only after three hours did they finally stop.

The two little ones were drenched in sweat; the trio returned to their small courtyard, cleaned up, and then headed down the mountain.

”Dad, where are we going?”

”To reserve some Spirit Rice.”

The two had no objections; as long as the two of them were together, they didn’t care where they went.

Tan Shaoting went right out of the city this time, taking the sons directly to the loose cultivator gathering place.

Some cultivators came over, and Chen Xiaorui returned as well.

She’s been feeling quite low lately. From the joy of being reborn after death to the blow of reality afterward, she was given hope again, only to find disappointment anew.

Knowing that the senior brother she had acknowledged would come again, she was still elated.

This time she didn’t call him senior brother, but stood aside, looking pitiably at Tan Shaoting.

Previously, the junior sister was always like this; whenever she wanted something or wanted to do something, she would definitely show this expression.

”I’m here this time to find help planting Spirit Rice and spirit vegetables.”

Of course, everyone was willing to partake. They all volunteered, and Tan Shaoting finally picked Chen Xiaorui and a ten-year-old boy who was at the third layer of Qi Cultivation to do the planting.

He gave each of them ten Spirit Stones and seeds, asking them to plant with care.

Chen Xiaorui held the Spirit Stones in her hand, tears in her eyes, knowing that this must be senior brother, presumably without memories of the previous life.

Otherwise, why would he be so good to me, giving me Spirit Stones? Is he going to take care of me in the future?

Tan Shaoting didn’t know Chen Xiaorui’s thoughts, but after living together for over a hundred years, he still understood what each of her expressions meant.

He sighed again inwardly; why is it like this? Were the master and I too indulgent of her back then? That’s probably it, else why would she develop a reliance on others?

If they were ordinary people, it wouldn’t be much, but they are cultivators fighting against the heavens. This absolutely won’t do.

He bought some Spirit Plants from two cultivators with high cultivation before leaving with his two sons.

”Dad, I miss my sister.”

Tan Shaoting nodded and took his two sons to find the young woman; he was also worried about her.

They arrived at the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, where Qi Wen was busy serving customers. She had become quite familiar with the work recently, and the steward here thought highly of her.

Qi Wen saw her father and brother entering, her face full of smiles.

Tan Shaoting saw his daughter was busy, so he declined the offer from another attendant and sat aside watching her.

He kept nodding inwardly; this is his daughter, adept at everything she does.

Qi Wen collected the Spirit Stones from the customer, sent her off, and then smiled as she approached her father.

She picked up her two brothers. ”Did you miss me?”

The two little sycophants nodded, ”Missed you, missed you. Sis, when are you coming home?”

”I still have over half a year. If you miss me, you can come see me; I also have vacations.

Dad, where’s Mom?”

”Your mother took on the task of repairing the array at Bishui Peak so she won’t be down for a while.”

Qi Wen knew there was a Great Power by her mother’s side on Bishui Peak; that must be the reason.

She put down her two brothers and took out some Spirit Fruit from her Storage Bag, which she had bought during her free time, finding ones with better taste for her two brothers to eat.

Since she couldn’t stay here too long while on duty, the father and sons left.

”Junior Sister Tan, those were your father and brothers?”

A cheerful female cultivator came to Qi Wen’s side and asked.

”Yes.”

”Your father is a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, right?”

Qi Wen continued nodding. Though this girl seemed quite easy-going, Qi Wen didn’t like her; she felt she was too calculating, too deliberate.

”Junior Sister Tan, what about your mother?”

”Senior Sister Song, you’re asking a lot.”

Song Chunqiao felt a little awkward at the questioning and left awkwardly.

Tan Shaoting took his two sons out of Spirit Treasure Pavilion. ”What do you two want to do now?”

”Dad, let’s go home. Has Mom returned yet?”

Tan Shaoting shook his head, ”I don’t know, she probably hasn’t made it back.”

”Dad, can we go to Bishui Peak with Mom tomorrow? Don’t worry, we’ll keep practicing swordsmanship.” Qi Hao said.

Tan Shaoting nodded, ”Alright, ask your mom when we’re back. She’s on a task; just worried you might disturb her.”

”We won’t, we’ll diligently practice swordsmanship.”

The father and sons returned to the sect, and of course, Su Yuanyuan hadn’t returned yet, so they each read their books.

Su Yuanyuan continued until nightfall before stopping, having only checked one-fifth of the array. However, the Array Flags weren’t consumed much. She would need to go to the task hall for more tomorrow.

She swiftly went uphill and found Chen Xue Man.

”Senior, will you be staying here? I’m going home.”

”You go, I’ll be here. Just leave that soul wood on the table.”

Su Yuanyuan left, feeling much relieved.

Returning to the small courtyard, Tan Shaoting had already prepared the meal; the two little ones were chatting about seeing their sister today while eating.

”Mom, we’re going with you to Bishui Peak tomorrow.”

Su Yuanyuan had no objections, smiling as she nodded, ”Sure, I’ll take you over.”

The two children weren’t naughty; when she was inspecting the array, they could watch on the side.
