Chapter 1380: Chapter 1380: The Young Master of My Yue Clan

"So you mean to say, my cousin still can’t cultivate his spirit?" Lin Caisang raised an eyebrow and glanced at Sui Zimo before asking.

Since neither of them could cultivate their spirit, that was actually fine—at least they were both starting from the same line. Even if Lin Chushui went to the Illusion Continent, he wouldn’t be looked down upon too much.

"Yes," Yue Chong replied.

Thinking of the child who wasn’t his own flesh and blood, Yue Chong wanted to hate him but simply couldn’t. He could only sigh and shake his head.

"That child really has bad luck, to be framed like this by his own mother!"

"Uncle Yue, what do you mean by that?" Lin Caisang asked, confused.

Even if the two children had been switched, her cousin had enjoyed more than a decade of good fortune, hadn’t he? At worst, if it were discovered, he’d just be sent back here, so what was the big deal?

"This..."

As the conversation turned to this matter, Yue Chong became somewhat embarrassed.

After all, the child was also the cousin of the young lady before him. There were some things he didn’t quite know how to say.

"Is it difficult for you to talk about, Uncle Yue?" Lin Caisang asked, seeing his discomfort.

"It’s not that it’s difficult to speak of."

Yue Chong shook his head again, cursing Liu Baixiao and Liu Rumei in his heart a thousand times over!

"That child is actually good-natured. It’s just that over the years, because he couldn’t cultivate his spirit, he has been looked down upon by the people of our clan, and he tends to speak little, not being good at interacting with others.

Moreover, during this blood recognition ritual when we offered the clan’s blood as a sacrifice, it was discovered that he does not carry our clan’s blood. The clan’s blood burned him, causing serious injuries. Thus, we intended to bring him back, but in the end, he could only stay with the clan to heal his wounds and could not return."

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang was quite surprised.

Could it be that Liu Rumei’s family had produced a mutant? And her cousin’s temperament was actually good?

"Then... if Chushui were to go back to the Illusion Continent, could he be looked down upon like my cousin?" she asked.

For now, it was better to focus on Lin Chushui’s issues. As for her cousin, she’d have to deal with him later—after clarifying Lin Chushui’s situation first.

"Not to deceive Miss Lin, I’m also worried about that," Yue Chong replied with a helpless tone, hanging his head and shaking it.

"Previously, not knowing that the two children had been swapped, I always thought that even if that child could not cultivate his spirit, he still had his siblings, so I didn’t pay it much mind. But this revelation has certainly upset my plans.

That child got along well with Chushui’s siblings, and now I don’t know what the situation will be like once Chushui returns."

Lin Caisang understood his meaning upon hearing this.

So, Chushui, even if he goes back to what Yue Chong calls home, wouldn’t be able to integrate into that large family, right?

Additionally, the position that originally belonged to Lin Chushui had been taken by someone else—his own relatives might not treat Lin Chushui as their real elder brother!

"What if Chushui could cultivate his spirit?" Sui Zimo asked.

"That would be different. As the eldest brother and someone who can cultivate his spirit, even if his spiritual techniques can’t keep up with others immediately, he would still be regarded as the young master of the Yue Clan, and others couldn’t look down upon him," Yue Chong explained.

"But this... cultivating the spirit isn’t that simple. Chushui is already twelve, and if some more time passes and he is older than twelve, if he cannot complete the clan’s blood ritual within half a year, cultivating his spirit will be... exceedingly difficult."
