Chapter 743: Chapter 729: Bringing People into Space (1)_1

White Tiger’s eyes did not blink, listening seriously to Situ Xin’s words. The earnestness in its little demeanor made it look incredibly cute, but right now, Situ Xin had no time to pay attention to White Tiger’s cuteness.

She spoke slowly, "Although I suppressed that idea at the time, I was always considering in my heart whether I had the ability to help my family successfully transcend the Heavenly Tribulation if they were to cultivate with me. The answer is not completely certain yet, but I already have about an eighty percent confidence. However, there is still a certain amount of risk in that eighty percent, and I cannot joke with my family’s lives because I cannot afford to lose them. That’s why, after suppressing this idea, I didn’t bring it up, and didn’t even tell you. Today, seeing my grandparents and great-grandparents saddened by the death of an old comrade in arms, I suddenly realized that I can’t waste any more time. I am still young, I still have a lot of time. But my grandparents and great-grandparents are already old, and even with my care and the food from the space, they will only live a few decades longer than an average old person. For most people, that is a very long time, but for cultivators, it is very short. If they want to extend their lives through cultivation, they must break through. How many years it will take for them to break through, I do not know. It could be one year, five years, ten, or twenty. If they don’t break through before their lives end, then all my efforts will have been in vain. Thinking about this, I realized that my previous thoughts were wrong, they were incomplete. I have just reorganized my thoughts and now think that I can take a gamble. I believe that with the speed of my cultivation, by the time they are ready to face the Heavenly Tribulation, I should be fully capable of helping them transcend safely."

White Tiger rarely listened to its master speak so much at once. But as it listened, it felt the urge to doze off. However, it did grasp the meaning of Situ Xin’s words: she didn’t want her family to leave her, and she didn’t want to end up alone in the end.

White Tiger rather understood what Situ Xin was currently feeling and thinking. It also knew that the path of cultivation is inherently long and lonely. However, Situ Xin’s current situation was even worse than in the Cultivation World, as she didn’t have a single companion.

"Master, I understand, I understand. Just tell me what you want me to do." White Tiger saw that Situ Xin had almost finished speaking. Its attention returned to the fine wine. It stretched out its paws and cradled the wine glass in its hands.

"Didn’t you say you wanted to test for the Spiritual Roots first? Let’s do that to begin with. After testing for the Spiritual Roots, help me select a few suitable Cultivation Techniques for them. And, pick the ones that aren’t too aggressive, just quick and easy to breakthrough," Situ Xin said, counting off on her fingers.

The words of Situ Xin almost made White Tiger spray out the wine it was sipping. She made it sound so easy, as if the demands she was making were simple. But were they simple? Not at all, good Cultivation Techniques that lead to quick progress and easy breakthroughs are what every cultivator dreams of—if there were such techniques, everyone would fight over them.

"Master, your requirements..." White Tiger started to speak with difficulty.

"Oh, my requirements are very simple; I believe White Tiger can surely fulfill them," Situ Xin said as she released the words she had been holding in her heart, and she felt much more relaxed. She thought that she had soaked in the hot spring long enough; with a powerful leap, she flew out of the water. As she soared, a white nightgown appeared in her hands. She put on the nightgown and then landed next to White Tiger.

White Tiger felt like crying. Its master was becoming more and more shameless. Besides, it hadn’t even finished talking yet, and that wasn’t what it meant. Clearly, Situ Xin wasn’t prepared to give White Tiger time to explain. It seemed early right now, and given the atmosphere in the house today, Situ Xin guessed that there were few who were asleep. If she didn’t finish this task, she probably wouldn’t be able to sleep herself. "So White Tiger, go and get the Spiritual Root testing tool now. I’ll come with you right now to test for their Spiritual Roots."

"My dear Miss, can we not be so troublesome today, please? Tomorrow, how about tomorrow?" White Tiger said with a pained expression. It needed to think through this matter properly.

"No, if I don’t get this done today, I definitely won’t be able to sleep tonight," Situ Xin said, bending down and looking dangerously at White Tiger. "White Tiger, if you keep talking nonsense, you won’t have a share of the wine I brew in the future."

No sooner had Situ Xin finished speaking when White Tiger vanished from in front of Situ Xin, leaving only its voice behind: "Master, I’ll go get it right now." However, White Tiger was grumbling to itself, "Such a ruthless master, always bullying me."

Once White Tiger appeared with the Spirit Stone used for testing Spiritual Roots...

Situ Xin, carrying White Tiger and holding the Spirit Stone, flashed out of the space. Then, she put on a thin jacket and, cradling White Tiger, took the tool for testing Spiritual Roots and left the room.

All around the Situ Family’s residence was eerily quiet. White Tiger turned its head around, surveying the surroundings and said to Situ Xin, "Master, how about we do this tomorrow? Look, everyone is already asleep."

But Situ Xin was as if she didn’t hear White Tiger at all. Her mind was filled with the desire to know if her family members had Spiritual Roots. She kept thinking about what she would do if someone didn’t have them.

"White Tiger, does your legacy include any methods to grant Spiritual Roots to those who lack them?" Situ Xin asked as the thought crossed her mind.

"Ah," White Tiger was caught off guard. The magnitude of the jump in Situ Xin’s question surprised it. Just a moment ago, it was advising her not to wake everyone up, but in the next second, Situ Xin asked it such a question.
