Chapter 753: Chapter 736: Mutated Thunder Spiritual Root (2)_1

"Okay, thank you, Grandma, but, Grandma, is it okay if Baby cooks something for me? It’s been so long since I’ve had a meal cooked by Baby." Situ Jin looked at Situ Xin with hopeful eyes as he spoke.

"You whippersnapper, really, as soon as you come back, you start asking for this and that; it seems like your training hasn’t been strict enough." Old Master Loo was chiding Situ Jin, but deep down, he was also looking forward to the meals prepared by Situ Xin.

"Alright, I’ll cook tonight and let everyone have their fill," Situ Xin didn’t mind at all; she was quite willing to cook. It was part of her leisure life after all. "But, before that, we’ve got to get some important things done."

"Right, right, how could we have forgotten about this?" After being reminded by Situ Xin, they recalled the reason they had called Situ Jin back this time.

"What important matters?" Situ Jin was a bit confused, but then a bad thought came to mind, they couldn’t be calling him back for a matchmaking meeting, could they? His brothers had shared their woeful experiences with him.

They wouldn’t be making plans for him just because they couldn’t control his two brothers, would they? Thinking this, Situ Jin stealthily signaled with his eyes to Situ Xin, asking her to leak him some information, "Baby, what’s going on? Can you spill some beans to your brother first?"

"Situ Jin, are your eyes twitching? You’re becoming less respectable by the day. It looks like when you’re free, we, as your elders, will have to personally train you," Old Master Situ said sternly to Situ Jin.

Situ Jin stiffened his body when Old Master Situ spoke, not daring to seek help from Situ Xin with his eyes anymore.

"Brother, come inside, we have something that requires your input," Situ Xin said with a concealed smile.

Situ Jin followed Situ Xin into her bedroom, where without giving him a chance to speak, she took out the Spirit Stone used for measuring Spiritual Roots, extended it towards him and said, "Here, place your hand on this stone and focus all your attention on it."

"Huh?" Situ Jin looked at the quartz stone in the delicate hands of his sister Situ Xin, then turned his head to look toward Old Master Situ and the others, appearing somewhat puzzled.

"Look at you, all dazed. Didn’t you hear what your sister said? Do as she told you." Old Master Situ was visibly displeased with the dumbfounded look on his grandson’s face.

"Oh." Situ Jin knew his family wouldn’t wish him harm. Although he was full of questions, he obediently put his hand on the Spirit Stone for measuring the Spiritual Root, closed his eyes, and focused all his attention on the stone.

The color of the Spirit Stone for measuring Spiritual Roots actually turned a color similar to lightning.

Seeing this transformation, a relieved smile appeared on Situ Xin’s face as she thought to herself, "He’s indeed my brother."

However, the four elders of the family didn’t know what attribute of Spiritual Root the color on the stone represented. Previously, when they measured the Spiritual Roots in the family, none had shown this color.

"Baby, what attribute of Spiritual Root does your brother Jin have?" Old Master Loo asked as a representative.

"It’s a mutated Thunder Spiritual Root," Situ Xin proudly announced.

"Muta...ted? That should be a good sign, right?" Old Madam Loo, having remembered the explanation from the previous night, joyfully said.

"Eh, folks, can someone please explain to me what’s going on?" As Situ Xin and the others spoke, Situ Jin had already opened his eyes in time to see the color on the stone; he was slightly surprised, and then hearing the conversation, he became even more bewildered.

"Here, see for yourself." Situ Xin, already too lazy to explain because she knew it would be hard to make it clear, decided it was better to let him read on his own.

Situ Jin took the book that Situ Xin handed over with confusion and began to read it intently.

While Situ Jin was engrossed in the book, Situ Xin sought the opinions of her grandparents and great-aunts and great-uncles, "Grandpa, Grandma, Great-Grandpa, Great-Grandma, I think I should tell Brother Jin about the Personal Space. What do you think?"

Upon hearing Situ Xin’s words, the four elders fell silent. It wasn’t that they didn’t trust their grandson; they were more concerned about their granddaughter’s (great-granddaughter’s) personal safety. So, they had to consider everything carefully. This was why the two Old Masters had told Situ Xin to keep it a secret from others for the time being.
