ALL NOVEL Chapter 19.2: The Trust that Inspires All
Observing this scene, Yao Chen couldn’t help but feel envious.
If only she were one of those young girls, able to participate in such activities. It would be so wonderful.
However, after experiencing so much hardship and becoming overly mature, even if she could go back to that age, she could no longer experience the same joy as these children.
After a pleasant and harmonious dinner, everyone cleaned up the pots and pans. Xiao Yan shed his mature demeanor and raised his fist with full vigor.
“Now then! It’s time for the hot springs!”
“Ooooohhh!!!!”
As Xiao Yan gave the order, the boys, regardless of the presence of a few girls nearby, led by Xiao Ning, quickly stripped off their clothes and jumped directly into the hot springs, much to the disgust of the girls led by Xiao Mei on the shore.
“These boys, really…”
“Xun’er, let’s go wash over there.”
Xiao Yan softly spoke to Xiao Xun’er, who nodded and called the girls to go to the other side of the enclosure.
At that moment, Xiao Yan shouted in a voice that everyone could hear, “Don’t just focus on enjoying yourselves, we’re here for training! Even while soaking in the hot springs, pay attention to cultivating your Dou Qi!”
“Understood!”
Xiao Yan’s words immediately received a resounding response, but it didn’t give him a sense of superiority over the others. It simply brought a warm feeling deep within his heart.
The warmth brought by family was incomparable to any treasures or exotic items, without a doubt.
Xiao Yan removed his clothes and entered the hot spring to cultivate his Dou Qi. After a moment, he felt a sense of surprise and doubt in his heart, speaking to Yao Chen in his mind.
(Senior Yao, the effect of this Foundation Building Elixir is too remarkable, isn’t it?)
(Hmph, what did you expect?) Yao Chen snorted proudly and continued, (But part of the reason is that you have a special physique, and your ability to absorb medicinal power is much faster than others. It’s only natural that the effect is remarkable.)
(Is that so…)
Upon hearing Yao Chen’s words, Xiao Yan frowned slightly.
Immediately, Yao Chen could clearly sense that Xiao Yan deliberately slowed down his cultivation speed, which also slowed down the absorption of medicinal power in his body.
This kid…
Yao Chen couldn’t help but furrow her brows.
It was obvious that Xiao Yan intentionally did this to avoid absorbing too much medicinal power and affecting others after hearing her words.
Even if you take care of your family, it shouldn’t go to this extent, right?
You are the one who prepared the elixir, you are the one who found the place to gather it all, so it’s only natural that you take a larger share, isn’t it?
But as Yao Chen looked at the people around Xiao Yan playing and frolicking with him, she decided to hold back the reprimand she was about to utter.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the children of the Xiao Clan trusted Xiao Yan so much.
Xiao Yan always adhered to his own beliefs and the righteous path in his heart, regardless of whether anyone knew or watched. He tirelessly did what he should do to the best of his ability.
He was truly determined to walk his path of righteousness in this world.
Thinking of this, Yao Chen couldn’t help but smile helplessly in her heart.
It doesn’t matter.
Since this is the path chosen by her disciple, as his teacher, Yao Chen will naturally support him to the end. Xiao Yan is deserving of it.
Even if any troubles arise, Yao Chen will have his back.
After all, she is Yao Chen!
