School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1152: Chapter 1238: Talent Awakening

All combined, it isn’t enough to fill a bucket!

Chen Nan seriously suspected the old man was bluffing. Something that could be called a source, and yet wasn’t even enough to fill a bucket?

The three elders also noticed the doubt in Chen Nan’s eyes. Liu Long said, ”The water from the source, a single drop can prolong life, two drops can cure all diseases, and three drops can bring back the dead. Although Chen Xia has done our Liu family a great favor, this source to our family is a passed-down treasure, something every clan member must protect with their lives. It is impossible for us to give it all away. If you don’t mind, how about I fetch a small bottle for you?”

Liu Long spoke as he took out a white jade bottle.

The jade bottle was pristine white all over, clearly not an ordinary item. Its body was about ten centimeters high, and its capacity was estimated to be around a hundred milliliters.

”I didn’t realize the water was so precious. I understand now and apologize for any offense. Please forgive me, elder.”

Chen Nan agreed, realizing that if three drops of this water could save a life and they were willing to give him a bottle, rejecting it would make him truly ungrateful.

”Just one small bottle? The three grandpas are really stingy,” Liu Tiantian pouted.

Seeing this little girl side with an outsider before marriage, the three elders all widened their eyes. Liu Qingtian said, ”You little girl, how many times have I told you, call us great-grandfathers, not grandfathers.”

Liu Tiantian stuck out her tongue, ”Great-grandfather sounds awful, calling you grandpa is much more fluent.”

The three elders were speechless.

They were all anxious about her mindset, changing ’great-grandfather’ to ’grandfather’ just for ease, but the generation difference meant a lot!

Next, Chen Nan went with the three elders to the Life Source.

Upon seeing the Life Source for himself, Chen Nan discovered these three old relics were not fooling him.

The Life Source wasn’t as large as imagined, just about a yard across, and where the water came out, it was like a pinhole, impossible to see unless looked at closely. All the spring water flowed out, and beneath the source hole, there was a basin-like depression where the spring water was indeed scarce.

If using a large bucket, it probably wouldn’t even fill half.

After obtaining the spring water, Chen Nan hurriedly returned to save someone, naturally without lingering in the Illusion Realm.

Liu Ziyuan escorted them out of the Illusion Realm.

”Girl, you possess the strongest cultivation talent in the Liu family. You must cultivate diligently and never be lazy,” Liu Ziyuan advised her little niece after leaving the Illusion Realm.

Liu Tiantian hugged Liu Ziyuan’s arm, giggling, ”Don’t worry, aunt. Even if I’m lazy, it won’t matter. I can still break through a rank every day, hehe.”

Liu Ziyuan shook her head and said seriously, ”The Liu family’s physique is different from ordinary people. You are currently in the phase of talent awakening, so you can easily break ranks every day. But once you reach a certain degree, the talent will be fully awakened and stop breaking through. Then you have to rely on yourself to cultivate to improve power.”

”Wow, really? I thought I could keep breaking through like this!” Liu Tiantian said disappointedly.

”Didn’t the Family Head tell you?”

Liu Ziyuan smiled wryly, this girl really underestimated cultivation.

Liu Tiantian scratched her head, ”No, but my dad left me a cultivation secret manual. It might say those things, but I haven’t had a chance to read it yet.”

”Not haven’t had a chance, but rather too lazy, right?”

Liu Tiantian giggled and said, ”Bad aunt, why say it out loud? It’s embarrassing for me.”

Liu Ziyuan laughed and pinched her cheek.

At this moment, Chen Nan asked, ”Ziyan, how long does it typically take for Tiantian’s talent to fully awaken?”

Liu Ziyuan shook her head and said, ”I’m not sure; it depends on one’s aptitude. There are those with low talent in the clan who complete awakening at the Dao Entrance Realm, while others with high talent don’t finish until the Earth Penetration Realm.”

Liu Tiantian exclaimed, ”So, at most, I’ll complete awakening at the Earth Penetration Realm?”

”That’s hard to say. If you possess unprecedented aptitude, you might jump straight into the Heavenly Realm. According to family records, our ancestor broke into the Heavenly Realm, achieving full talent awakening,” Liu Ziyuan said.

Liu Tiantian scratched her head and curiously asked, ”And you, aunt? At what realm did you complete your awakening?”

”I...”

Liu Ziyuan shook her head, smiling bitterly, ”I am not of Liu family blood, so I don’t have talent awakening. I was adopted by your grand uncle as a child.”

”What about my dad?” Liu Tiantian asked.

Liu Ziyuan said, ”The Family Head had high talent, reportedly completed awakening at the Ninth Layer of Imperial Path.”

”Haha, I’m about to surpass my dad!” Liu Tiantian laughed excitedly.

...

After bidding farewell to Liu Ziyuan, Chen Nan flew with Liu Tiantian toward the Huaxia Continent.

Although he had lost a lot of blood recently, making his body weak, he possessed an unparalleled constitution, with Essence Qi continuously replenished, his loss of energy quickly restored. Coupled with a few days of rest, and Liu Tiantian feeding him a considerable amount of Spiritual Medicine, he was now fully recovered.

The two flew over the East Sea, Chen Nan asked, ”By the way, Tiantian, have you asked your dad why they had you but didn’t raise you?”

”That unreliable old man wouldn’t tell me, only saying I’ll understand in the future,” Liu Tiantian said, troubled.

”Really unreliable!”

Chen Nan sighed, thinking how similar Liu Zhong was to his own deceased old master, always keeping secrets in conversation.

”Did he ever tell you anything about your family’s matters?” Chen Nan asked again.

He was curious about the miraculous aspects of the Liu family — they seemed so favored by heaven, each person’s talent fully awakening, allowing them to easily break through ranks.

Such cultivation aptitude was truly extraordinary!

Liu Tiantian scratched her head, ”About family matters? He hasn’t mentioned anything to me.”

”Alright then, let’s go.”

Chen Nan pointed forward, pulling Liu Tiantian’s hand, speeding up their flight.

Around one o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Nan arrived at Tianlun Mountain.

To his surprise, this time neither his deceased mentor nor the large monk were engaging in dubious activities like watching ’yellow’ films, instead, they were enjoying a game of chess at the mountaintop.

At first glance, they seemed like reclusive sages.

But upon closer inspection, they were nothing more than two old perverts!

During the game, they placed two photos of beautiful women on the board, analyzing their figures and appearances.

He thought they had turned over a new leaf.

Unexpectedly, it’s truly hard to change one’s nature!

Chen Nan was exasperated and said, ”What’s so great about two broken photos? I’ve brought the spring water, hurry and save someone now.”
