Chapter 51, Li Yuhan Awakening

There was an early breakfast this morning. Only Li Juanxin and his fox, Fluffy, were on the table having breakfast. "Eat up, Fluffy. Don't let the breakfast that daddy prepared get cold." He fed Fluffy a piece of fried pork as well.

"I'm already eating the I can." Fluffy licked its mouth in satisfaction.

"Why are you eating so early?" Jing Sheng asked while coming down the steps with Jing Xiang.

"Daddy said breakfast will be delayed today, so he let me eat first." Li Juanxin replied.

Jing Xiang came and sat on one side of him. His hair was messy from sleeping, and the bags under his eyes were visible through the thick black lashes. He yawned. "I'm hungry too."

"Did you wash your face?" Li Juanxin asked as he looked at Jing Xiang. "You're the only one who sleeps until late." Li Juanxin sighed.

"I've washed my face. Why should I wake up early when there's nothing to do?" Jing Xiang shrugged.

"You can have this serve. I was worried that the food would get cold since Fluffy and I have already eaten our fill." Li Juanxin pushes a bowl of untouched food to Jing Xiang.

It still looked steaming hot to him, but the smell coming off it was tempting. "Thanks," Jing Xiang said as he took the bowl into his hands and started to eat.

Jing Sheng felt that this scene was familiar. The scene where Juanxin has breakfast before everyone else. thinking about this, he asked suspiciously: "Xin, where's everyone else?"

"Oh, they? They're in the backyard. Daddy is about to awakened eldest brother and brother Yuhan's bloodline. As for brother Cheng and brother Zhang, they both went to watch the process." Li Juanxin explained.

Jing Sheng raised his eyebrow. "Enjoy your breakfast, I'll go watch the show as well." He got up from the chair and made his way towards the backdoor.

"I should go too." Jing Xiang got up and wanted to follow but was stopped by Juanxin.

Juanxin grabbed Jing Xiang's hand and pulled him down back into his seat. "You can't leave."

"Why not?" Jing Xiang asked while looking into those bright blue eyes.

"You haven't finished your breakfast yet. If you leave, the food will get cold. And you won't want to eat it when it's cold, which means, daddy's effort would go to waste. Do you have any idea how tired daddy works to make this breakfast?" Juanxin looked at Jing Xiang seriously.

Jing Xiang was speechless by all the reasons that hit him. On the other hand, he'd gotten used to Juanxin being over protective of their father. He had no choice but to sit back and finish his breakfast.

....

Backyard:

"Yuhan, you go first. Remember to bear through the pain. If you give up in the process, it'll be difficult to go through the process again and you might receive internal injuries." Li Jain instructed.

"I understand, Father." Yuhan answered

After Li Jain had carefully prepared the medicine bath, Li Yuhan eagerly stepped into the wooden tub filled with a concoction of rare herbs and high grade potion.

As Li Yuhan settled into the warm bath, he could feel the energy of the herbs seeping into his skin, tingling with a gentle warmth. Soon he began to relax.

With each passing moment, Li Yuhan felt a surge of energy coursing through his veins. It started as a gentle trickle, like a small stream finding its way through a parched land. But soon, it grew into a mighty river, rushing through his body, awakening every dormant cell within him.

As the energy intensified, Li Yuhan's senses sharpened. He could hear the faintest rustle of leaves outside, smell the fragrance of flowers blooming in a distant garden. It was as if a veil had been lifted, revealing a world he had never truly seen before.

"This seems to be going more smoothly than I remember." Jing Sheng commented, breaking the silence.

"I think it's the potion quality, the effect is pretty good. Father's strength must have increased over the month." Li Cheng added

"What do you mean?" Li Yujian asked

"Normally, after absorbing the medicine elements, there would be intense pain. Very painful, but the result is worth it." Jing Sheng explained while leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"To be honest, the person who has endured the most pain so far is Xiang. He was the first to awaken, and the first to test the medicine. Father had to hold him down, else he'd rushed out of the tub." Jing Xiang snickered.

Li Cheng laughed. "Xiang is not easy to tame!"

Jing Yujian smiled faintly. "What about Juanxin?"

"Well, Juanxin's condition is a bit special. Father is dealing with it."

Meanwhile, Li Yuhan awakening wasn't without challenges. Li Yuhan could feel the weight of his bloodline awakening, pushing against the boundaries of his physical form. It was as if his body was being stretched and molded, reshaping itself to accommodate the newfound power. Waves of pain washed over him, making him gasp softly. But he endured nonetheless. Finally, as the last remnants of pain subsided.

Gentle wind blows, soft and soft, on branches and leaves, soars in joy to heaven, and cries in sorrow. Carrying pure spiritual energy with it across the courtyard, ruffling the petals of the peach blossom trees, gently swaying the tall grass of the yard. A white jade dragonfly lazily flies around the yard leisurely. There's a peaceful atmosphere around them.

"A petal? Is it spring yet?" Li Zhang catches the petal that fell in front of him in shock, rubbing his thumb along it.

"Look, all the flowers are blooming. How beautiful~" Li Juanxin who came out at some point was amazed at the sight.

"It's the wind spirit. Congratulations Yuhan, you've awakened the wind spirit." Li Jain smiled and helped Li Yuhan out of the medicinal bath. The herbs had all lost their properties after being absorbed.

The children all cheered and congratulated Yuhan on his successful awakening. Their happy laughter was contagious, and their excitement caused Yuhan to beam with happiness.

Meanwhile, outside the gate, those customers that insisted on staying were shocked. What is happening in the courtyard? Such pure dense spiritual energy. The aura is so strong it makes it seem like they're standing near the source. Even the flowers were blooming out of season.

Some people were tempted and wanted to force their way in, but how could Zhou Lifen let them? He received strict orders not to let a single soul in!

Zhou Lifen unsheathed his sword, anyone who dared to force their way in would have to bear the consequences!
