Chapter 246 Talk with Family
Before long, a message arrived through the Harem Connect as he opened his eyes to see:
[Shen Yuxin: Alright, my dear. Mommy will be back with both of your sisters soon. Is it anything urgent?]
[Shen Yuan: Take your time, Mom. I just wanted to have a little chat.]
With that, he disconnected the link and closed his eyes again while leaning on his chair.
[Looks like it will be a long night,] Yue Lan mused.
"We will see about that." He smiled lightly, thinking about this little family reunion after such a long time.
Knock Knock
He opened his eyes at the gentle knocks coming from the door. Rising from his chair, he made his way to the entrance. Your next read is at empire
As he opened the door, he saw Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong looking at him with various expressions.
"Mother, Big Sisters," he greeted warmly, stepping aside to invite them in. "Please, come inside."
"We can finally spend some time together like the old times now," Huo Rong said with a bright smile while heading inside.
Bing Rong followed them in while Shen Yuxin said, "My dear Shen Yuan invited us after all. How could we not show up?"
Shen Yuan chuckled softly hearing their words and led them inside.
"It's really been a long time since we've all gathered like this," Shen Yuxin remarked with a gentle smile.
"Indeed," Huo Rong agreed, her eyes reflecting a mix of affection and curiosity. "You've been quite busy lately, Yuan'er. Especially with your recent breakthrough."
Bing Rong nodded softly. "We are also curious about what you wanted to discuss with us."
He led them through the hallways toward his bedroom. "Let's move to my room where we can talk comfortably."
Upon entering his bedroom, they found it neatly arranged, with a low table surrounded by comfortable cushions near the window overlooking the garden. The soft glow of lanterns cast a warm ambiance.
"Sit down wherever you like," he said, gesturing to the seating area.
They nodded their heads and settled down as he prepared tea, the delicate aroma of tea leaves filling the room.
Shen Yuan poured the tea into cups and handed them out. "Here, try this tea. Prepared by yours truly," he said with a smirk.
"Haha, since when did you become so funny?" Shen Yuxin said, taking a sip. "It's lovely."
Huo Rong and Bing Rong also took their cups while giggling in amusement.
Once everyone was settled, Shen Yuxin looked at him expectantly. "So, what is it that you wanted to discuss, Yuan'er?"
He took a deep breath as he organized his thoughts, meeting their gazes. "I wanted to talk about the new physique that I acquired recently. It is called the Chaotic Vessel Physique."
Everyone got silent as they looked at Shen Yuan; Shen Yuxin was the first to speak, "Did you purchase that physique from your system?"
Shen Yuan slowly nodded his head, "Yes, this physique is vital to my cultivation, and Yue Lan personally crafted this physique for me."
Shen Yuxin's eyes slightly widened in shock. "She did that?" she softly muttered to herself, regaining her composure. "She is truly exceptional."
Huo Rong curiously asked, "Then what is so special about this physique?"
Shen Yuan leaned back on his chair and said with a smirk, "This physique lets me cultivate different techniques seamlessly without any conflict in their elements. And I can cultivate hundreds of cultivation techniques with its help."
Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief as they had never heard about someone being able to cultivate hundreds of techniques.
"Hundreds... Someone can do this impossible thing?" Bing Rong softly muttered.
Huo Rong stared at Shen Yuan, finding it hard to believe how one body can cultivate so many techniques at once. "I have never heard of someone capable of cultivating multiple cultivation techniques at once."
"So this was the thing you wanted to tell us," Shen Yuxin softly said, still wondering how strong his new physique was.
"No, I have more things to discuss with you." Shen Yuan shook his head smilingly.
Shen Yuxin sat up straight and nodded her head seriously. "You can ask us anything, Yuan'er. We will do our best to help you."
Shen Yuan hurriedly waved his hands. "Ahaha, it's nothing serious. I just need a lot of cultivation techniques to fill my Chaotic Vessel Physique. And for now, I specifically need a space-related cultivation technique. I'm on the precipice of comprehending Spatial Intent, but due to the lack of a suitable technique, I can't comprehend it fully."
He explained what he needed, but that only made the trio even more astonished at his monstrous comprehension power.
"You already have a rudimentary understanding of Spatial Intent? Without a space-related cultivation technique at that?" Huo Rong grabbed his arm and asked.
Shen Yuan turned his face around and smiled lightly. "Why would I lie?"
"So that's why you were looking for a space-related cultivation technique back then," Bing Rong said as she remembered the conversation she had with Shen Yuan before.
"Indeed. I have already collected Light Elemental Technique, Fire Elemental Technique, and Thunder Elemental Technique. I was thinking of cultivating a Spatial Cultivation Technique next as it will make all of my techniques much more versatile," Shen Yuan softly said.
"You have thought this through, Yuan'er," Shen Yuxin proudly nodded her head. "Space-related techniques are nearly nonexistent on the Desolate Continent." She paused while noticing Shen Yuan's expression gradually becoming disappointed. She stood up from her chair and smiled before continuing.
"But lucky you, I happen to be one of the few to have a space-related cultivation technique."
Shen Yuan's eyes lit up with excitement as he stood up and rushed to hug Shen Yuxin. "You are the best mom!"
Shen Yuxin hugged him back with a bright smile on her face and patted his back. "Hehe, I know, no need to remind me."
Huo Rong felt her eye twitching looking at their behavior. She softly whispered to Bing Rong, "Now I know where Shen Yuan got his narcissistic behavior from."
Bing Rong barely held back her laugh as Shen Yuxin shot a glare at Huo Rong, who hurriedly turned her face around to not look at her directly.
She gently broke the hug and asked Shen Yuan with a playful smile, "Though I'm sure this is not the only thing you wanted to discuss with us, right?"
Shen Yuan paused as he thought back about Han Qingyu and Wan Ling; now, when the time to confess came, he hesitated.
"Come on, no need to be shy about it," Huo Rong teased from the side.
Shen Yuan exhaled a sigh as he also realized he was getting tense for no reason.
"It's about Han Qingyu and Wan Ling, as you guys are aware since they are your disciples. I have grown quite close to them during this time," he said in one breath and looked at the three of them to see how they would react.
"Haha, I knew it!" Huo Rong laughed while clapping her hands. "See? Didn't I say he would talk about them with us today?"
Bing Rong shook her head. "It was bound to happen sooner or later with the way they all interact with each other."
