My Master Knows It All

155: Chapter 121 Unexpected Joy_1 155: Chapter 121 Unexpected Joy_1 ‘Talisman Level upgrade breakthrough, Administrator level up by one, random user access enabled for one, specified user access enabled for one.’

Cao Zhen, upon hearing the voice from Zhonghua Cloud, was stunned.

My Talisman Level upgraded?

He quickly opened his panel.

Zhonghua Cloud Level 7 Administrator: Cao Zhen

Yes, the Talisman Level was level forty-one now!

That’s why the Administrator level went up, and the extra experience gained another five thousand.

‘What did Ling Xi do?

How did she break through the bottleneck just like that?’

The only one who could have caused the Talisman Level to increase was Ling Xi.

Cao Zhen quickly connected with Ling Xi.

At the Immortal Soldier Workshop, Ling Xi was sitting cross-legged with a huge talisman floating in front of her, and all sorts of materials kept flying into the talisman from around her.

‘What kind of talisman is this?

Using so many precious materials?

Is she repairing this huge talisman?

Is this a divine weapon taken from the Divine Soldier Tomb?

It seems her gains inside the Divine Soldier Tomb are not less than that girl Yan Yourong’s.’

This talisman was unmistakably extraordinary, just by looking at the materials Ling Xi was throwing into it – have you not seen how green with envy the face of the Hidden Dragon View Master Lv Chaoqiong looked?

What kind of materials would it take for the Talisman Level to directly break through the level forty barrier?

Good job, worthy of being my disciple, upholding the fine tradition of our Four Treasures Peak.

I plundered the wool from the Five-Element Pill Ground, and you’re doing the same at the Immortal Soldier Workshop.

At this rate, won’t Master Lv blacklist Four Treasures Peak?

Having figured out what had happened, Cao Zhen immediately exited and collapsed into a relaxed recline.

‘So comfortable, this feeling of winning without lifting a finger, is just so comfortable.

If each disciple does this once, won’t I soar to the skies?’

Cao Zhen murmured to himself, then once again, an urging voice came from within the Zhonghua Cloud.

‘Administrator level increased, please specify the user to access.’

‘Access my mother, Wu Xuehua,’ Cao Zhen didn’t hesitate and immediately chose his mother.

His father had mentioned several times during their conversations that his mother wanted to talk to him.

As a son, he had not been filial before crossing over.

Now, in this world, the only thing he could do was to improve his parents’ living conditions through Ma Shoufu, besides passing on the cultivation techniques to them for strengthening their bodies.

Other than that, his only option was to chat with them for a little while within the limited time available.

A document approximating his father’s age quickly appeared within Zhonghua Cloud.

Cao Zhen opened the document, and instantly, an image streamed into his mind.

In his parents’ small courtyard, his mother was holding a water hose, watering the veggies she planted in the yard.

On the side, a golden retriever happily ran back and forth.

Having likely received news that he was still alive and started practicing the cultivation technique he passed on, his mother’s spirits appeared much better than the last time he saw her.

Cao Zhen felt slightly relieved.

His parents’ improved condition made him happier than anything else.

He initiated a call through his mother’s document.

‘Mom…’

Wu Xuehua, who was watering, halted abruptly and looked up at the air in front of her, asking with hopeful eyes, ‘Is that you, Zhen?

Is it you?’

Cao Zhen hastily replied, ‘Mom, it’s me.’

Hearing her son’s voice again, Wu Xuehua dropped the hose to the ground, tears welling up in her eyes, and she burst into tears of joy.

Ever since she learned her son was still alive, after hearing from her husband that the son might find a way to talk to her, she had experienced countless auditory hallucinations.

While cooking, gardening, feeding the dog, whenever she was alone, she could always faintly hear her son calling for her.

But in the end, she realized those were all hallucinations.

And now, her son had finally returned.

‘Mom, don’t cry.

I’m here now, aren’t I?’ Cao Zhen, seeing the tears in his mother’s eyes, also felt a lump in his throat.

People tend to cherish after losing something, and only think of the virtue of their elders after they can no longer show filial piety – but it was already too late.

Wu Xuehua, while wiping away her tears, chided, ‘You rascal, glad you know to speak up.

I ask you, why did you contact your father first, and not your mom?’

Cao Zhen was caught off guard.

How should he pick up this thread?

Should he say he was afraid she couldn’t handle it?

Wouldn’t that be asking for discomfort?

He steered the conversation onto another topic, ‘By the way, where’s Dad?’

‘He’s gone fishing,’ Wu Xuehua’s attention was not diverted in the slightest; after a brief mention of Cao Zhen’s father, she turned back to inquire with concern, ‘Zhen, how are things with you there?

Is your living situation good?’

Cao Zhen boasted, ‘It’s great, really great.

An entire mountain peak belongs to your son.’

Wu Xuehua showed concern, ‘It must be cold on the mountain at night, make sure to wear more.’

‘Yes, yes, I’ll definitely wear more,’ Cao Zhen knew his mother couldn’t see him, yet he insisted on nodding repeatedly.

‘And the food?

Are you getting used to the food there?

Is it like in ancient times with not many seasonings?’ Wu Xuehua inquired, following up about food after asking about his living conditions.

‘It’s fantastic here, there are so many kinds of fish, and they are delicious beyond words.

Plus, my eldest disciple’s cooking is on par with yours, Mom.’
