Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 28 — Zhou Yuyin
The efficacy of the Golden Silk Pill alone had many uses, such as helping to increase the amount of power in a swordsman by 40 circles, physical enhancement, and, and the most famous of the benefits of the pill is that it can neutralize all toxins.
Zhou Yuan was sure that if he took the pill then in addition to the quality of his bones that increased rapidly, other physical forging also increased.
The Golden Silk Pill took quite a long time to absorb the body compared to other resource pills. If Zhou Yuan wanted to purify him then he would have to do a closed-door exercise and it would take days.
"Grandfather, thank you for giving Yuan such a valuable resource..." Zhou Yuan did not hide his delight and directly hugged his grandfather.
Compared to the resources that Zhou Bing often provided every month, the Golden Silk Pill was more valuable than all that.
Zhou Bing smiled widely, patting Zhou Yuan on the shoulder. "You should practice again, Yuan'er. This is Grandpa's gift because you saved our family."
Zhou Yuan nodded. "Grandfather need not worry, Yuan won't let Grandfather down."
With the Golden Silk Pill, Zhou Yuan could not imagine what his strength would increase like but it would definitely shorten his training for several years.
After meeting his grandfather, Zhou Yuan did not directly consume the Golden Silk Pill or do the closed-door training first, he stored the golden pill in his box for another day's use.
Zhou Yuan was given a precious pill from his grandfather, and a few weeks later the news of happiness rang out all over the Zhou family about the birth of Lin Ruyue's daughter.
Lin Ruyue had given birth to a sweet daughter, all of the Zhou family were delighted to welcome the arrival of Lin Ruyue's children including Zhou Yao, and Zhou Yuan.
"Good Mother..." Zhou Yuan smiled widely, feeling happy when he saw his mother was fine after giving birth as well as the birth of his sister.
Lin Ruyue was currently lying down postpartum, her body looking weak yet a smile was engraved so clearly on her face. Beside her was Zhou Yao who had been accompanying her since the birth process began.
"My husband, have you prepared a name for him?" Lin Ruyue asked as she was holding her baby.
"I've prepared it my wife, what about Zhou Yuyin?"
"That's the pretty name of my husband, isn't it Yin'er?" Lin Ruyue asked her sleeping baby.
Zhou Yao peeked at his wife's cheek suddenly making Lin Ruyue unprepared and slightly blushed.
"My husband, why are you kissing all of a sudden, look there's Yuan'er here." Lin Ruyue turned her face away, she did not want her face to redden before Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan chuckled at the romance of his parents, the first time he saw his father and mother so happy.
Zhou Yuan's gaze again saw his sister who was in Lin Ruyue's sling, his feelings were mixed but he was happy with Yuyin's birth.
Noticing Zhou Yuan's gaze, Lin Ruyue understood which way her son's mind was headed. "Yuan'er, do you want to hold your sister?"
Zhou Yuan was shocked as well as embarrassed as his mother read his thoughts precisely.
"Can I, Mother?" Zhou Yuan asked hesitantly.
Lin Ruyue smiled gently. "Of course, she's your sister now."
Lin Ruyue gave Yuyin to Zhou Yuan whom she received with great care. For his entire life, it was only the first time Zhou Yuan held a baby.
Zhou Yuan looked at his sister's face closer, her face was beautiful just like her mother's.
'It turns out like this it's like holding a baby...' Zhou Yuan could not stop smiling let alone accept the fact that the tiny baby was his sister.
***
After a few days of his brother's birth, Zhou Yuan spent time with Zhou Yuyin. Somehow he was very happy when playing with his little brother.
Zhou Yuan even thought that in his first life he would have a baby. Zhou Yuan immediately dismissed the thought as let alone getting married, falling in love only he had never.
'Maybe in this second life I have to get married...' Zhou Yuan scratched his head before shaking slowly, it seemed like his closeness to a baby made his mind more sensitive about being in a relationship. 'No, I have to practice and avenge myself first...'
A month later, Zhou Yuan finally asked his parents for permission to do the closed-door exercises.
He deliberately did not immediately train when he received the golden pill from Zhou Bing because he wanted to take care of his mother who was heavily pregnant at that time.
Now that his mother had given birth, Zhou Yuan could refocus his training.
Hearing that Zhou Yuan was about to do a closed-door training, Zhou Yao allowed it, he now no longer considered Zhou Yuan a child anymore after seeing his strength a few years ago.
"Yuan'er, follow Dad..." Zhou Yao suddenly took Zhou Yuan somewhere.
"Dad, where are we going?"
"You'll find out later."
Zhou Yao did not answer further, he brought Zhou Yuan to the Family library, initially Zhou Yuan was a little surprised why his father brought him here but not for long, his father did something surprising.
Zhou Yao pulled one of the books on the shelf then suddenly the floor he was on was exposed and showed a staircase leading underground.
"This is a secret place!?" Zhou Yuan asked half in surprise. After spending some time in the library for the past few years, he found out that there was another room under the library floor.
"Actually this room is not a secret in the Zhou Family, almost all the Elders who served have known about it. Sooner or later I'll tell you this room when you're an adult..."
Zhou Yao smiled faintly, he obviously did not expect his son to become a powerful swordsman at such a young age.
If only it had not seen Zhou Yuan kill the swordsman at the level of the Golden Realm back then, perhaps Zhou Yao would not have told this place just now.
Zhou Yao then walked down the steps while Zhou Yuan followed his father behind. Zhou Yuan initially thought it would be dark down there but it seemed he was wrong, there were many candles lighting his way.
Not long after Zhou Yuan arrived in a fairly wide room, there was nothing in the room except for a jade slip lying there.
The jade had a large size, its color shining greenish. Just one look Zhou Yuan knew the stone was no ordinary stone.
"Yuan'er, you can do closed-door training here, your Elders, Father, and Grandfather used to always do closed-door training on the rock when we were about to make a breakthrough." Zhou Yao pointed at the huge jade stone while explaining that the greenish jade was the pride of the Zhou Family all along and possessed supernatural powers.
Zhou Yuan nodded, he understood what to do next.
After delivering his son, Zhou Yao then went back upstairs, he let his son train here.
"This rock is really interesting..." Zhou Yuan was slightly amazed as he sat cross-legged on the jade and he felt a suggestion of calmness in his heart, this could make Zhou Yuan's concentration increase.
Zhou Yuan took out the Golden Silk Pill from his box before then swallowing it, he closed his eyes and began to purify the pill throughout his body.
