The coachman was paid and asked to leave with the carriage while Ming Jian took his son to a secluded place and looked up to see if he was doing fine.
"Shin 'er, do you feel any discomfort?" he was concerned.
The latter replied enthusiastically "No father, in fact I feel very cool all over my body now". Only after he boarded the carriage in Juuko, did he have time to find out something abnormal about his both.
Ming Shin felt like his whole body was crawled with thousands of ants but giving off a cool feeling. He could not tell what it was but found that it was not malicious, in fact his skin seemed to be perspirating more.
Ming Jian was visibly relieved and noticed the jade bracelet and one more colorless bead. It would have been one less bead, had it not been for Ning Shu to stop Ye Guang in time five years ago.
"Did you encounter any trouble?" he asked.
"Yes father, how did you know?" Shin began to tell all his encounters today. Listening to all this, the former was initially surprised, then shocked and then he was excited.
"Hahaha, good job son" he licked his beard and almost teary eyed 'My ancestors were not wrong, this is the place and I finally found it. Emperor Ming Haotian, I shall soon finish this task and move from this remote place'. He was lost in thoughts while the latter was still describing the huge behemoth and the vines.
"Hmm? What's those three bags you are carrying? Is that the skin of the behemoth?" he asked.
"Yes father, and the little guy seemed to eat something and he's sleeping now" the latter replied.
Ming Jian could feel that the snake has just been promoted to the sea spirit realm. It was only relatively weak and hence could be easily killed. Well, is it a guardian beast? No, it should not be so weak. I never heard there was a guardian beast accompanying that person in the first case.
He picked Xiao Lan (blue worm) who was sleeping with a bloated stomach contently. He could feel a strong vitality and blood changing in the little guy.
"Keep this little guy with you, looks like it has more potential to evolve now after eating it's Nei dan (beast core)" the former said.
Ming Shin wanted to say the yellow bead was sucked, but even he could not figure out what it was. He did not bother explaining it. They both discussed that once the event is over, Ming Shin shall take his father to the cave.
"Wait, father, but I think I have to leave soon to Henji. Why don't I show it now?" Shin said.
His father reported the ins and outs of the situation and left out the part that his mother shall be leaving in his stead.
"Huh? Where did I offend that big sister?" the former murmured. They both then walked along and reached their place of stay. Ming Rui who has been anxiously waiting for her son, immediately let go of her heart as soon as she saw him without any injury.
She ran and hugged him tight "Shin 'er, I was so worried that you haven't come for so long".
Ming Shin felt a warm current and hugged back tight " I'm fine mom. Look what did I get you?", he unpacked one of the bags and took out the blue cold fruit.
Ming Rui laughed happily that her son seems to have gotten something for her and was proud of it. Quite opposite to her reaction was Ming Jian as he was petrified upon seeing this fruit.
'Nima !! Isn't that Jade Yin fruit that only existed in books? There was never a record of the original fruit in the last thousand years' He looked at his son like a monster of luck. First the worm, then the hidden place in the tree, the behemoth meat and now the fruit.
'Looks like all my ancestors luck was poured out on this kid' but he was gleeful.
Ming Jian explained about the fruit to both of them and that it can only be taken by women as men have yang within them and taking this fruit will only be counter productive to them.
Ming Shin was even happy that he could get something for his mother. He asked his mother to eat it immediately to which his father acquiesced. Looking at the father and son urging, she felt a little funny and little sad about it.
After she sat and took the fruit, Ming Jian immediately helped her in resolving the efficacy of it by diffusing it within her body. Only then did he feel that he simply underestimated the potent power in it. With her current Qi transformation fourth layer, she cannot take even ten percent of the power.
So he made sure that the energy is stored near her dantian which is slowly evolving at this stage. After a period of time, there was a bad smell coming off and Ming Rui who saw that she emitting all the black impurities and rotten smell was ashamed and run inside to wash herself.
She soon dressed up and come out in front of the father son duo. She emitted a cold noble dignity and not anyone can look at her eyes, definitely not with impure intentions.
'My kind wife has now turned so icy?' Ming Jian spurted two nose bleeds.
"Woww, mother you look so beautiful' Ming Shin was more proud and happy that the fruit he got was not wasteful.
"R-really?" Ming Rui was red faced and looked at her husband.
Guessing his son's thoughts, Ming Jian almost coughed up blood ' where is this fruit just for beauty, that too only ten percent, What if she refines 100 percent' He spurted two more blood spurts.
"Shin 'er , I have to help your mother digest the fruit. You should go sleep in your room" he warned solemnly. Ming Shin put on a serious face " Yes father " and left happily.
As soon as his door closed, Ming Jian took out a some jade and applied in a methodical manner. Immediately all sound was banned to the outside. Ming Rui was not new to this.
"Fairy Rui, I have to help you in resolving the fruit efficacy" Ming Jian smirked evilly while the latter blushed and accepted her fate as a lamb to be slaughtered.
There were dragons and phoenixes dancing making sweet memories and the air seemed to be humid for hours until it was morning the next day.
Looking at his wife who was sleeping like a baby, and the fact that she had to leave today 'Curse you Ye Guang, one day as soon as I finish my work here, I'm going to end you and anyone who comes in my way' he vowed.
Feeling the tightness in air, Ming Rui twitched and opened her eyes. The former quickly regained his gaze and when two eyes met, thinking about the future and their longing, another passionate session was started.
Ming Rui had to forcefully stop him saying that their son should be waking up and also needs to be informed about her departure. Both of their moods plummeted and dressed up quickly.
She quickly opened the monster meat and cooked a delicious recipe with fragrant smell. Ming Shin immediately awoke to that smell 'Ah, mother's cooking'. His saliva was almost flowing especially this behemoth meat was giving an intoxicating hunger.
Looking at one big and one small neatly sitting and eagerly waiting for the dish, Ming Rui laughed stupidly.
"Mother, you look even more more beautiful than when I saw you night" he exclaimed as he noticed her beautiful smile and skin white jade with baby pink reddishness.
"You brat !!" she felt shy while blamingly looking at her husband. Ming Jian was sitting there proud of himself while Shin was thinking 'Huh? What's wrong with father? What's that expression he is giving off?' he was confused.
In the mean time, she quickly went in while applying some herbs to her and made herself look like an average looking woman again with not much change. This is one of the recipe that Ming Jian got while on his travels few years back.
With the incident of Ye Guang, he felt it was unnecessary inviting trouble. "Huh? Mother, what happened? why did you become like this again?".
"I can only be beautiful for you both" she replied while blinking at Ming Jian.
Soon the family of three feasted on the meat and Ming Jian helped both of them in storing the huge energy within their body to slowly diffuse with time and they cannot process such huge energy with their cultivation now.
After taking the fruit at night and steady diffusal process by Ming Jian through out the night, Ming Rui has broken a lot of barriers and now stabilized at Qi condensation sixth realm. If nothing goes wrong, the energy of the monster beast can promote her to a foundation realm strong.
While he was contemplating it, Ming Rui looked at her husband and then at her son and said "Shin 'er, I need to tell you something".
