Chapter 5: Calling for a Family Meeting

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Calling for a Family Meeting Once she was done, she got up and left her room then went downstairs to have lunch with her family. She was really happy to have such a family here. At first, she had wanted to share what she had found with them after lunch, but she decided to wait until evening when her father and brother came back from work. She also wanted to use this time to figure out why her soul had so seamlessly fused with this body. It couldn’t be a coincidence. In the cultivation world coincidences could kill, so she had to understand what was going on. When she entered the dining room, everyone was already waiting. "Everyone is here." She said and made her way to the seat next to her grandfather. It was astonishing how even the seating arrangement in the dining area was arranged the same way as in her previous life. She used to sit next to her grandfather since she was young even though her father was already the clan leader and there were other children of her uncles. "It’s good that little Bunny is home. I want to thank our ancestors for protecting her. Such a terrible accident. It is only with good karma that she can sit with us for this meal." Grandfather was the first to speak, then he picked up his chopsticks and picked a piece of fried beef for Chu Miao. It was one of her favorite foods. Everyone started to eat then. In the family, there were not many rules, especially about not talking while eating. As long as people don’t talk about heavy topics or work, they can discuss everything else while they are. "Daddy, brother, when you come home in the evening, I have something important to discuss with everyone. So I hope you can come home early." Chu Miao decided to tell them about her plans in case they had dinner plans or socializing events and returned late. After today, there will only be 28 days before the apocalypse, and preparations have not started yet. She needed everyone to know about it and start preparing. "What is it, little Bunny? Is there something you need from Daddy? You can tell no matter how much it costs, I will transfer the money to you." Indeed, her family only knew how to spoil her, but this time, it was not about money. "No, Daddy, it’s not about money. I need to hold a family meeting this evening, so make sure you come home early; we can talk after dinner." Everyone turned to look at her and smiled. "Little Bunny has grown up and knows about holding family meetings. It must be important so your father and brother will come back early." Her grandfather said, then turned to Chu Mo, and his face became serious. "Did you hear that? The two of you come back early for a family meeting." Chu Zheng, Chu Miao’s grandfather, knew his granddaughter well; if it wasn’t something extremely important, she would not have said that. So, something must be going on. "I know, father; we will be home early for dinner, and then we can hold the family meeting per Bunny’s request." Chu Mo had no objections. "That’s right, Bunny, brother will be home early; you don’t have to worry. " Chu Hao, Chu Miao’s brother also chipped in. It was good that they took her seriously. This also showed that they would not just ignore her words about the apocalypse later. After lunch, everyone went to do their own things and Chu Miao went back to her room. She locked the door and sat on the bed then swiftly entered the space ring. Inside the space ring, apart from some spiritual fruit trees she had planted when she was free and some spiritual herbs, there were only about two acres of spiritual rice. She never really used the space for much apart from storing things and cultivating. She was always busy training, unlike other girls her age, and when she wasn’t training, she was on the battlefield fighting enemies. However, even though in the cultivation world, these few fruit trees and spiritual rice may not seem like much, in this modern world that lacks spiritual energy, they are treasures. Moreover, in the room, she usually stored food and cultivation resources; there were other fruits, beast meat, and dishes prepared in the general’s mansion by her mother before she headed to the border for the war. She was supposed to eat them for a long time, now, the food has become an important resource for beginning cultivation in this world. And she could always plant more things. Other than the place where crops and trees were planted, there was also a courtyard with several houses. One of the rooms was a library that she used to get books about cultivation techniques and other trades. She had studied medical skills for a while but gave up after becoming a second-ranked medical talent. In the cultivation world, this rank is not worth mentioning as it can only treat light injuries like external and internal injuries. But injuries to meridians and dantian cannot be cured. Then, again, in this world, this level of medical skills is enough. There were several other rooms decorated as bedrooms in the courtyard, and the last one looked like it was only fifty square meters when outside, but stepping inside, it was like another space. It is a space as large as two football fields. A space stone must have been used to craft it. This was going to be the warehouse to store all the supplies. There was not much in this place except for the food, beast meat, and spiritual fruits from the general’s mansion in one of the corners. This place can keep everything as it was when it was placed inside as time is static in the warehouse, unlike the other places where time moves the same as the outside world. Hence, even the dishes brought from ancient times were still hot and full of spiritual energy.
