Chapter 388: Chapter 388 Xia Liu’s Worries “Uh uh… this can’t be right, after circulating the Immeasurable Sword Art, one should be able to sense those light dots during meditation.” Faced with Ouyang Lingtian’s astonishment, Tie Shan and the others still shook their heads. They had just circulated the Immeasurable Sword Art and felt a strong sense of frustration, an indescribable feeling. No matter what, they did not feel that this cultivation technique was of any use. “Something’s not right, have you fully comprehended the Spirit Formula?” “Lingtian, stop it…” Seeing Ouyang Lingtian still in doubt, Xia Liu said in a low voice. “Brother Xia Liu, what’s happening to us?” “Could it be that we’re practicing in the wrong way?” “Or that we don’t have the conditions to become cultivators?” Tie Shan, Mark, and Glasses began to ask, puzzled. “Glasses, you might not be wrong, to become a cultivator, one must have a Spirit Root…” “So, Tie Shan and the brothers don’t have Spirit Roots?” “Mhm, Brother Lingtian, like you, I am very lucky to have a Spirit Root; otherwise, we couldn’t become cultivators.” Lin Xiaotian nodded in agreement with Ouyang Lingtian’s words. Upon this revelation, the room fell silent. Xia Liu’s expression was undoubtedly the most solemn; he not only felt sad for Tie Shan and his friends. He was also worried about the girls who were diligently studying the cultivation techniques. If they didn’t have Spirit Roots, then they couldn’t cultivate… “Heh heh, boss, you don’t need to look so worried, even if I can’t become a cultivator, I am still a Mysterious Rank Peak warrior, and with a few more years of training, I could advance to become an Earth-Rank Warrior!” “Yeah, boss, although Glasses and I aren’t warriors, when it really comes down to it, our strength is not weaker than Tie Shan’s.” “I agree with Mark’s statement, although we can’t cultivate the techniques, our strength is undeniable.” Listening to the three’s warm words, Xia Liu cracked a slight smile: “I know your strength, otherwise, I wouldn’t have called you here to protect Xiaoxue and the others.” “That settles it then, there is a champion in every field, even if we can’t become cultivators, cultivating our own domains to the peak is also a commendable way to live.” Tie Shan spoke straightforwardly; he didn’t believe for a second that increasing his cultivation to Heaven Rank would make him any weaker than a cultivator. “Mhm, Tie Shan is right, if Glasses and I could reach the peak of our strength, it would also be quite terrifying. Although the method of our training is different, the power is not to be underestimated.” “Exactly, so boss, there’s no need to worry about us, we’re all doing well.” “Alright, all of you, no more talking, it’s time to get up, wash up, and go to sleep.” Lin Xiaotian didn’t want Tie Shan and the others to continue. He could tell that at that moment, Xia Liu’s heart must be feeling terribly heavy. Not just because his brothers could not cultivate, but also because of that deep concern he held. “Xiaotian, I need to make a trip to the county town first, I’ll leave things here to you.” Xia Liu turned back, smiled at everyone, and after giving his instructions, he left the courtyard. Watching that somewhat lonely figure, Lin Xiaotian clenched his fists tight. The others also felt various emotions stir inside them. “Wait, to become a cultivator one needs to have a Spirit Root, then Fang Fei and the others…” Ouyang Lingtian suddenly thought of Fang Fei and the girls he saw today, and his eyes widened in realization. The reason for Xia Liu’s desolation could largely be due to those women. “Brother Lingtian, let’s not disturb Xia Liu these next few days; let’s hope everything turns out well.” Lin Xiaotian patted Ouyang Lingtian on the shoulder and said earnestly. … Xia Liu quietly made his way to the hotel office in Hejing. Originally, the girls were supposed to stay in their new house in Osmanthus Village, but because Bai Lili’s lecture hall was set up in Hejing, they probably wouldn’t move into their new home until they had thoroughly understood the Immeasurable Sword Art. In fact, they had almost grasped it; as long as they understood the first level of the Immeasurable Sword Art, the rest would be easy. Xia Liu gently pushed open the office door, and what he saw made him feel even heavier. He saw Fang Fei asleep on the sofa, hugging a notebook. Zhang Xiaoxue, Huang Xue, and Li Qianqian were sprawled on a rug, likewise holding notebooks in their slumber. Gu Fangxia and Zhang Qing had more regular sleeping postures. But no matter from which angle he looked, it was obvious that these girls had been studying very hard. Xia Liu didn’t want to imagine what their mental state would be like if they didn’t have Spirit Roots and couldn’t practice cultivation. The thought was too heartbreaking. He really didn’t dare to think about it; that image was too painful. After watching for a while, Xia Liu gently adjusted the girls to more comfortable sleeping positions before leaving the room. Just as he was about to leave, Bai Lili emerged from a room. Seeing Xia Liu, she immediately greeted him, “Brother Xia Liu, you’re back. Where’s Xiaotian?” “Xiaotian is instructing Lingtian in the practice of the Spirit Formula, and I’m about to return as well.” “I see, make sure you both get some rest.” “By the way, junior sister, how many more days do Xiaoxue and the others need to study before they can start cultivating?” “They have almost grasped the Cultivation Technique. They should be ready by dawn,” Bai Lili replied. “Alright, I got it. Let’s talk more at dawn.” “Mhm, see you later, Brother Xia Liu.” After saying goodbye to Bai Lili, Xia Liu drove back to Osmanthus Village. By then, Ouyang Lingtian had completely released his Inner Qi and was currently sitting cross-legged on the ground, circulating the Immeasurable Sword Art. Lin Xiaotian was doing the same, while the three from Tie Shan were idly sleeping on the couch, each to their own. Without disturbing the three, Xia Liu went out and walked towards the villa area. The girls hadn’t started their cultivation yet, and the specifics were unknown. Everything would have to wait until dawn. At noon, within the opulent villa atop the cliff, Xia Liu looked out aimlessly as he called Fang Fei to have them come back home. “Don’t worry, I believe all the sisters-in-law have Spirit Roots and can become cultivators.” Seeing Xia Liu so anxious, Lin Xiaotian comforted him. “I hope so…” Muttering to himself, Xia Liu asked again, “By the way, how is Lingtian’s cultivation? To what step has he reached after abandoning his previous practice?” “Qi Cultivation first level. He says he feels he can break through to the second level, but without enough Spiritual Energy, he’s stuck,” Lin Xiaotian informed. “Hmm, with his previous cultivation at the Mysterious Rank Peak, he might not be able to reach the second level like you, and the scarcity of nature’s spiritual energy is also a problem,” Xia Liu nodded, thinking that if Ouyang Lingtian could consume a Spirit Grass at this critical time, maybe he could break through the bottleneck. “The sisters-in-law are here.” Lin Xiaotian indicated as he saw two cars approaching from a distance. “What’s meant to come can’t be avoided. Let’s hope everything is alright…” Xia Liu murmured as he went forward to welcome the ladies. “Brother Xia Liu! We’ve all thoroughly understood the Cultivation Technique now,” Zhang Xiaoxue said with a beaming smile as soon as she got out of the car. “Hehe, we’re going to surprise this guy soon.” “Exactly, exactly…”
