Shen Wang was also unsure about the situation with the Wind Spirit Blood.
He only knew that so powerful clans had bloodline power inheritance.
This was a kind of talent similar to a Spirit Root, but better than a Spirit Root because there was a high probability of inheriting the talent through the bloodline.
As for Spirit Roots, it was entirely up to luck; even if both parents had Spirit Roots, it couldn’t guarantee the children would have them.
It was rumored that Spirit Blood was ford by powerful cultivators deliberately blending cultivation talent into their bloodline, making it easier for their descendants with Spirit Blood to embark on the path of cultivation.
However, Spirit Blood also had its drawbacks; it had to depend on the physical body and often walked the path of Martial Dao, requiring a continuous absorption of various resources to strengthen the bloodline power, forming a unique physique, which had a high resource consumption unlike a Spirit Root that only needed Spiritual Qi.
Simply put, Spirit Blood was a special kind of Spirit Root, a unique talent, primarily a family inheritance with little relation to ordinary people.
If Lady Zhiyuan’s Spirit Blood could awaken, it would naturally be great, allowing her cultivation to progress by leaps and bounds at the very least.
"In your family, who has awakened the Wind Spirit Blood? I rember you ntioned soone nad Ling Shu had awakened it?"
Shen Wang recalled the reason he was with Lady Zhiyuan initially was that a peerless girl from the Yun Family nad Ling Shu had once disciplined the Blood Wolf, and the latter, fearing retaliation against a genius, harbored resentnt against Lady Zhiyuan, who had walked with Ling Shu, and was slain by him.
"Yes, she has both the Wind Spirit Blood and the Celestial Spirit Root. When I went ho last ti, I heard she’s already cultivated a Wind Spirit Dharma Body and has begun a closed-door Core Formation."
Lady Zhiyuan said enviously, "If I could also awaken the Wind Spirit Bloodline, I wouldn’t need any external assistance to cross into the Innate Realm."
"You should be on the verge of awakening your Wind Spirit Blood."
Shen Wang was happy for Lady Zhiyuan, "Next, you should pay attention to your body’s changes and inform promptly of any situations."
"Hmm, sorry to trouble you, husband," Lady Zhiyuan was also delighted. If she could awaken her Wind Spirit Blood, perhaps she could also leave her child with bloodline power.
In this way, even if the child didn’t have a Spirit Root, at least they would have the bloodline power to use.
"After resting, I’ll take you back to Fengming Town. Then I’ll head back to Jade Silkworm Valley."
Shen Wang laid out the plan.
After fighting with the two leaders of Black Water Stronghold, he realized he was much stronger than anticipated, so he decided to change his plan and try to et the Black Silkworm Lady to clarify the Black Poison.
"Husband, I can wait here for you; there’s no need for you to make the long round trip."
Lady Zhiyuan shook her head.
"It’s nothing; for , traveling one or two thousand miles is like practicing."
Shen Wang didn’t mind, "I think it’s safer for you to go back; after all, this place is quite close to Black Water Stronghold."
"I will listen to your arrangent, husband," Lady Zhiyuan said obediently.
Elder Li and Aunt Li quickly put the old hen to stew in the pot. Shen Wang followed into the kitchen to make a bowl of prenatal dicine for Lady Zhiyuan, earning a bit of system reward experience.
"The young master is a good husband, personally cooking dicine for his wife."
Aunt Li was very pleased with Shen Wang’s actions, constantly praising him.
Shen Wang could only respond modestly, helping with skinning the sheep, working busy throughout the morning, filling a table full of farm dishes.
It was the first ti for the two of them to have a al in this rural village and ordinary household; the old couple’s hospitality and simplicity made them especially enjoy this lunch.
"This is really delicious."
Lady Zhiyuan’s appetite surged, and she ate quite a bit of at.
Shen Wang occasionally picked dishes for her, "You are now two people, eat a bit more."
"Hmm hmm."
Lady Zhiyuan nodded with a smile.
"There is still a lot; rember to take so ho with you when you leave."
Aunt Li bead with joy.
"What we ate is enough; how could we take more ho with us?"
Shen Wang shook his head. After eating, they rested for a quarter of an hour, and he took out so gold and silver as gifts to give back to the old couple.
Seeing the gold and silver, Elder Li hurriedly declined, "Young fellow, why give money? These are just so dostically raised goods, not worth much; you should take them back."
"Elder Li, Aunt Li, these are nothing to us; you two are not that young, you can use it to buy so toys for your grandchildren."
Lady Zhiyuan went over and grabbed Aunt Li’s hand, taking the gold and silver off.
"Oh my, you are too generous."
Aunt Li was quite embarrassed.
"This is the Health Pill I developed, have a taste, it should relieve so old ailnts without problem."
Shen Wang took out two elixirs; these elixirs were originally from the elder of the Black Water Stronghold, ant for nourishing and protecting the heart and lungs, with a gentle dicinal property suitable for the two old folks.
These pills might not promise longevity but consuming them ensures robust health, effective in the long run with just one pill each for the two.
He watched as the two elders consud them, their effects manifested imdiately; they both felt a sense of ease, and their complexions were much rosier.
"Truly amazing, I’ve always felt short of breath all these years, and now suddenly I feel lightened up."
Elder Li was astonished.
"I’ve got strength all over my body; these pills must be really precious."
Aunt Li moved her arms with delight.
"Your hospitality is worth more than these elixirs."
Shen Wang held Lady Zhiyuan’s hand, "We husband and wife still have to be on our way; we won’t stay here long."
"Wait a mont, let prepare so things for you to take with you."
Elder Li hurried to pack up the lamb, grabbed three old hens, and various mountain goods.
Shen Wang was helpless but amused, "Elder Li, if soone saw this, they might think I was robbing your house."
"This is nothing, take whatever you need; and if convenient, visit often in the future."
Elder Li chuckled, they really liked this young couple.
"It’s too far, you two must take care of your health in the future."
Shen Wang carried the old hens and lamb, wrapped in large bags, sent off by the old couple to the village entrance.
After saying goodbye, Shen Wang looking at the old hens, felt bemused, "If others saw this, they’d think we were returning to our own ho."
Lady Zhiyuan pursed her lips and laughed, "They really are nice people, treating us like family."
"Indeed."
Shen Wang nodded, "We were lucky to et such people after running all night."
He swung the old hens, "Looks like I need to buy a Spirit Beast Bag, a magical artifact for carrying live beings."
"Hehe, is my husband going to use a Spirit Beast Bag to carry old hens?"
Lady Zhiyuan found it amusing.
"It’s better than carrying them by hand."
While holding the items with one hand, Shen Wang pasted a Silver Radiance Talisman on the old hens, then took Lady Zhiyuan’s hand, "We need to hurry on the road; let’s return ho by dark."
He summoned a Flying Sword and began Sword Flight at full speed.
At this mont, Shen Wang’s Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation was even more abundant than when his Dantian was intact at the Ninth Layer, and carrying one person during Sword Flight wasn’t much of a strain.
In the air, they encountered no troubles, flying nearly two thousand miles in one go, and smoothly returned to the ancestral ho as the sun set.
At the doorstep, Liu Shan saw Shen Wang and Lady Zhiyuan, hurriedly saluting, "Greetings, Master, Lady Zhiyuan."
"Take the old hens to raise, eat them tomorrow, the lamb and mountain goods can be prepared today."
Shen Wang threw the items to Liu Shan, brought Lady Zhiyuan into the ancestral ho, and after speaking with Jia’Er, went to prepare the dicine.
