I Can See Through Everything

Chapter 99



"Brother, what is this?"

In the evening, at the Lu family residence, after dinner, Xiao Yan looked at the jade bottle that Lu Qing had taken out and asked curiously.

"Something good, a dessert after dinner, for you to eat," Lu Qing replied with a smile.

"Sweet?" The little one's eyes lit up immediately.

She loved sweet things.

"Yes, it's a bit sweet. Try it."

Xiao Yan obediently opened her mouth, and Lu Qing dripped a drop of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid into it.

"It really is sweet!"

Xiao Yan smacked her lips happily.

Then she looked at Lu Qing eagerly, "Brother, just one drop?"

"This thing can't be eaten too much. Since you like sweet things, tomorrow I'll make you some sweets."

Xiao Yan was still young, and the energy of the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid was extraordinary. Although the medicine was mild, Lu Qing dared not give her too much at once.

He wanted to see the effect with just one drop first.

If she could digest it well, he would give her more later.

"Then it's a deal, brother." Xiao Yan was instantly delighted.

After taking a drop of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, Xiao Yan quickly became drowsy.

Soon, her eyelids grew heavy, and she slowly fell asleep next to her brother.

Lu Qing picked her up, placed her on a small bed, and covered her with a blanket.

Xiao Li also jumped up, lying in its small bamboo nest at the head of the bed, silently guarding the little two-legged creature.

After making sure Xiao Yan was covered properly and feeling her steady breathing, Lu Qing felt relieved, walked out of the room, and sat down in his favorite recliner in the courtyard.

It was now close to dusk. Lu Qing looked at the distant sunset, feeling a sense of peace.

Although his trip to the mountains had been very fruitful, gaining opportunities that others dared not even dream of, his spirit had been quite tense in the mountains.

After all, the mountains were full of poisonous insects and snakes. If he relaxed too much, he could easily fall into misfortune.

Now back home, he could finally fully relax.

Watching the sunset, he let his mind wander for a while, then began to think again.

His master was now helping him refine the Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pills.

Originally, he wanted to help and practice his pill-refining skills.

But his master, having just broken through and full of energy, found him a hindrance and kicked him out of the medicine room.

He said that refining some Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pills was simple, and he didn't need any help.

Moreover, using Hundred-year-old Ginseng to practice pill refining was too wasteful. He couldn't bear to see Lu Qing squander such good medicinal materials.

Lu Qing didn't insist. Anyway, he knew the method for refining the Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pills. He could practice later.

Once his master finished refining the pills, he could fully focus on cultivation.

Then his strength would rapidly advance.

Now, he just needed to wait calmly for two or three days.

Besides martial arts cultivation, the study of runes could not be neglected.

Although the path of runes was weak in the early stages, once truly mastered, it could control various mysterious powers, which was incomparable to martial arts.

How could Lu Qing give up such a magical power?

Thinking of this, Lu Qing took out a piece of broken silver from his pocket, activated his ability, and entered the state of Calming the Mind and Purifying the Heart, observing slowly.

Previously in the Jade Cave, he had gained some insight, which was later interrupted by Xiao Li's awakening.

Now he could continue his comprehension.

As the sky gradually darkened, Lu Qing, in his state of comprehension, didn't feel the passage of time.

It was only when the moon hung on the branches and the stars shone brightly in the deep night that he suddenly came to his senses.

He looked around, then up at the sky, feeling a bit dazed.

"It's already this time. The study of runes really makes one forget the passage of time."

Earlier in the Jade Cave, he had only felt that a few hours had passed, but in reality, a whole day and night had gone by outside.

"However, the time spent is worth it."

Lu Qing looked at the silver in his hand and smiled.

He had gained some understanding of the patterns on the silver.

He believed that with a few more sessions, he could fully comprehend it.

Of course, understanding the patterns on a piece of silver didn't mean he had mastered the path of runes.

If the path of runes were that simple, it wouldn't have disappeared, leaving only a Jade Cave.

This inheritance was profound and mysterious. Lu Qing had a long way to go to truly master it.

Putting away the silver, Lu Qing got up and found that his clothes were damp with dew.

It was fortunate that he was now a Qi and Blood Realm martial artist with a strong physique.

If an ordinary person with a weaker body sat in the courtyard for half a night, they would probably catch a cold.

Shaking his head, Lu Qing circulated his Blood Qi, raising his body temperature to quickly evaporate the moisture, then returned to the house to rest.

Early the next morning, Lu Qing got up, practiced boxing a few times, and then went to make breakfast.

As soon as he finished making breakfast, he heard Xiao Yan and Xiao Li playing in the room.

He walked into the room and saw the two little ones rolling around on the bed.

"Brother!"

Seeing Lu Qing come in, Xiao Yan immediately called out.

"Awake? How do you feel after sleeping all night?"

"Brother, Xiao Yan seems to have turned white!"

The little one stretched out her hand, rolled up her sleeve, and showed Lu Qing her chubby little arm.

The originally somewhat dark arm was now as white and tender as a lotus root, very cute.

In fact, Lu Qing had already noticed Xiao Yan's changes without her showing.

Recently, the food at home had been quite good, and under his care, Xiao Yan's body was much better than when he first crossed over.

She had gained a lot of weight, and even her originally yellowish hair had improved a lot.

Although it had improved, the time for conditioning was still short, and her hair was still somewhat yellow.

Also, because she played outside every day, her skin was a bit tanned.

But now, her hair was black and shiny, and her skin had become white and tender.

She had become even cuter and more endearing.

"Yes, not only has your skin turned white, but your hair has also turned black," Lu Qing nodded.

"Really? Xiao Yan's hair has turned black?" The little one’s eyes lit up.

Ever since her playmates said her hair was ugly, Xiao Yan had been very conscious of her hair.

Hearing her brother say her hair had turned black, she became very concerned.

"Of course, you'll see when you wash up," Lu Qing nodded.

Xiao Yan immediately climbed out of bed, "Brother, I'm going to brush my teeth and wash my face!"

She ran outside to the washbasin and looked at her reflection in the water. After a while, she shouted happily, "Brother, Xiao Yan's hair has really turned black!"

"Brother already told you, if you eat well and sleep well, your hair will soon become beautiful," Lu Qing said with a smile.

At the same time, he activated his ability to secretly check the little one's information.

Soon, a faint red light appeared on Xiao Yan's body.

[Lu Xiao Yan: A human child, female.]

[A lucky little one. After taking the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, she seems to have awakened a special talent.]

[Ice Muscle and Jade Bone (not fully activated): Pure body, free of impurities, as pure as ice and jade, a natural cultivation seed, with double the effect when practicing water and cold attribute techniques.]

Seeing the information on Xiao Yan's body, Lu Qing was very surprised.

Not only because of the red light, which was on the same level as Xiao Li's ability, but also because of the two notes.

Under the stimulation of the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, Xiao Yan had actually awakened a talent called Ice Muscle and Jade Bone.

And this talent, according to the notes, was quite powerful.

It was simply a natural cultivation genius.

However...

"Not fully activated?"

Lu Qing looked at the words on the third note and pondered.

Was it because she had only taken one drop of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid?

Lu Qing felt it was likely.

Xiao Li had awakened its invisibility talent only after taking five drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid.

Xiao Yan had only taken one drop, which was certainly not enough.

To fully activate this Ice Muscle and Jade Bone talent, she would probably need a few more drops of the liquid.

But, he had plenty of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid.

From the Jade Cave, Lu Qing had obtained about forty drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid in total.

He had used three drops himself, given five drops each to Xiao Li and his master, and given one drop to Xiao Yan last night, using a total of fourteen drops.

Now he still had more than twenty drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid left.

Even if he used four more drops on Xiao Yan, he would still have about twenty drops remaining.

These twenty drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, besides the ten drops he needed to save for practicing the Essence Forging Spirit Technique of the Divine Rune Sect, he would still have ten drops left for emergencies.

So Lu Qing was not worried about running out of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid.

On the contrary, seeing that Xiao Yan had unexpectedly awakened such a special cultivation

 talent made Lu Qing happy but also a bit speechless.

After taking the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, both Xiao Li and Xiao Yan had awakened talents, and his master's cultivation had also improved, soon to break through to the Precelestial Realm.

Only he, apart from a slight increase in potential, had not gained any special benefits.

In the end, everyone turned out to be talented, except for him being a useless one?

Lu Qing's feelings were quite mixed.

In the next two days, Lu Qing continued to give Xiao Yan a few more drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid.

Finally, after she took the fifth drop and woke up, he used his ability to check her information again.

A rich red light appeared on Xiao Yan's body.

[Ice Muscle and Jade Bone: Pure body, free of impurities, as pure as ice and jade, a natural cultivation seed, with double the effect when practicing water and cold attribute techniques.]

Seeing that the words "not fully activated" had disappeared from the notes, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, as he thought, Xiao Yan's talent also required five drops of Earth Vein Spirit Liquid to be fully activated.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Xiao Yan had just finished washing up and was waiting for Lu Qing to tie her hair. Seeing her brother staring at her in a daze, she felt strange.

"Nothing, brother was just thinking."

Lu Qing quickly tied Xiao Yan's hair into two little buns.

After tying it, he looked around, feeling very satisfied.

Her black, shiny hair, fair and tender face, and big eyes.

Xiao Yan, who was already very cute, looked like a porcelain doll after taking the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, very endearing.

According to the little one, when she went out to play these days, Grandpa Zhang and others always praised her and gave her many small treats, making her very happy.

"Alright, let's have breakfast."

In the house, the siblings were having meat porridge together, while Xiao Li enjoyed its fresh fish on the side.

It had to be said, the Black Night Spirit Lynx truly loved fish.

Even if Xiao Li ate fish three times a day, it would never get tired of it.

As he drank the porridge, Lu Qing thought about another matter.

Now that Xiao Yan had awakened such a special cultivation talent, some of his plans needed to be changed.

Originally, Lu Qing hoped that Xiao Yan could live a peaceful life without pursuing any great achievements.

But now that Xiao Yan had awakened such a good talent, it would be a waste not to use it.

In this world where martial artists were revered, mastering martial arts was something countless people dreamed of.

However, most people didn't have the qualification.

Since Xiao Yan had such a talent, he should support her.

So in the coming days, he would start teaching Xiao Yan some knowledge about cultivation.

But according to the information displayed by his ability, the best techniques for Xiao Yan to practice were water and cold attribute techniques.

It happened that he had no such techniques.

Li Weitian's inheritance included all Precelestial Realm techniques, none of which were water or cold attributes, unsuitable for Xiao Yan.

"It seems I need to find a water or cold attribute inheritance for Xiao Yan in the future," Lu Qing thought.

But this wasn't urgent.

Before reaching the Precelestial Realm, there was no attribute division in the Postnatal Realm's cultivation.

Everyone followed the steps to temper Blood Qi, tendons, and internal organs.

Only after reaching the Precelestial Realm and cultivating unique Precelestial Qi did attributes come into play.

Xiao Yan was still a little child, not having started the first step of cultivation. Even with extraordinary talent, who knew when she would reach the Precelestial Realm.

Finding a technique could be done slowly.

For now, the Health Nourishing Boxing that his master taught was enough for her.

Thinking of this, Lu Qing said, "Xiao Yan, do you want to learn to read?"

"Read?" Xiao Yan blinked, confused.

"Yes, reading. You like listening to the little monkey's stories, right? There are many stories better than the little monkey's outside, but they are all written in books. Only if you learn to read can you understand them."

Lately, Lu Qing still had to tell Xiao Yan stories from time to time.

He couldn't understand how Xiao Yan could listen to the same monkey story repeatedly without getting bored.

Even Xiao Li would sit obediently, eyes bright, listening intently whenever he started a story.

So, to inspire Xiao Yan's interest in learning, he decided to use this to tempt her.

Sure enough, Xiao Yan was immediately interested.

Even Xiao Li perked up its ears.

"Brother, are there really many stories better than the little monkey's outside?"

"Of course, but those stories are all written in books. People who can't read can't understand them."

"I want to learn! Brother, I want to learn to read!" Xiao Yan said immediately.

"Alright, from today on, brother will teach you to read. If brother is busy, you can also learn from Grandpa Chen."

Seeing that Xiao Yan was hooked, Lu Qing smiled.

At this moment, he felt something tug at his pants. Looking down, he saw Xiao Li looking at him expectantly.

"What, Xiao Li, do you want to learn to read too?" Lu Qing was stunned.

Seeing it nod, Lu Qing was speechless.

He didn't expect the allure of stories to be so strong that even the Black Beast wanted to learn to read.

But how should he teach a little beast to read?

He had no experience!

"Then it's settled, brother. Xiao Li and I will learn together!" Xiao Yan said happily.

Having a learning partner was naturally the best.

"Alright then."

Faced with the expectant gazes of the two little ones, Lu Qing could only nod in agreement.
