Chapter 759: Chapter 740 Cultivation Career (2)_1

Situ Jin thought of this, picked up his cup, ready to take a sip of wine. Just as he was about to bring the cup to his lips, he caught Xiao Muli’s gaze on him. His mind stirred, and with the wine cup in hand, he signaled Xiao Muli, then drank down the wine in one gulp.

This made the already uneasy Xiao Muli even more restless upon seeing Situ Jin’s actions, thinking that Situ Jin was behaving too abnormally. As the saying goes, "There’s a demon at work when things are out of sorts." And sure enough, although Xiao Muli also finished his wine in one go.

However, he started to speculate, wondering what Situ Jin meant and what he planned to do next?

Xiao Muli wasn’t afraid of Situ Jin challenging him to a fight or finding some trouble for him elsewhere to keep him busy. He was terrified that Situ Jin would play dirty and prevent him from seeing Situ Xin for ten days to a half month, which would drive him insane.

With this in mind, Xiao Muli made a decision in his heart. After dinner, he had to find Situ Jin and have a good talk to see what Situ Jin was up to.

If Situ Jin knew that his casual gesture had caused Xiao Muli so much turmoil, with such a multitude of worries, he didn’t know whether to be pleased or to feel helpless.

As soon as dinner was over, Situ Jin pulled Xiao Muli aside saying it was time to bond. Everyone knew what Situ Jin meant by bonding. Nevertheless, no one interfered. The Situ Family and the Loo Family thought that it was necessary for Jin, the elder brother, to teach Xiao Muli a lesson. Although they accepted their relationship, they couldn’t let their baby suffer, so they wanted to give Xiao Muli a firm talking to. They needed to let him know that Baby was their family’s precious darling, and if Xiao Muli dared to mistreat her, then they would show him how her maternal family would deal with him. This was also to give Xiao Muli an advance warning of the power of Situ Xin’s maternal family and to keep him vigilant.

As for Old Master Xiao, he was sipping his tea and laughing merrily without a worry when he saw his grandson being taken away by Situ Jin for some "bonding." In Old Master Xiao’s view, as long as they could quickly relent and have Xiao Xin become a member of the Xiao Family, it was all good.

Situ Xin was just playing with Baibai, as if she hadn’t seen anything. After all, a little fight between men could help foster brotherly bonds. As for how badly Xiao Muli would be beaten up, Situ Xin claimed she wasn’t concerned at all.

If Baibai knew what its master was thinking, it would definitely roll its eyes and say disdainfully, "That’s not because she’s unconcerned, it’s because there are so many elixirs around my owner. No matter how severe the external injury, just apply a little and it’d heal, no matter how serious the internal damage, take an elixir and it’s all good, what’s there to worry about?"

The next day, Situ Jin rushed back to the army. This time, not only did Situ Xin fully restock the Storage Ring, she also prepared some elixirs that were beneficial for cultivation. However, Situ Xin had cautioned him in advance to take the elixirs in moderation to avoid overconsumption, which could lead to a shaky foundation in cultivation and risk entering a state of demonic inversion.

Situ Jin, who had advanced a level in his martial skills overnight, now couldn’t help but grin whenever he thought of Xiao Muli, who he had knocked to the ground so that he couldn’t get up. Every encounter with Xiao Muli before had left Situ Jin on the receiving end of a beating.

As for Xiao Muli, he was lying in bed feeling dejected. Even with the ointment and elixirs prepared by Situ Xin, his physical injuries had mostly healed, but his pride was deeply wounded. It had always been him knocking Situ Jin to the ground, but this time, it was he who had been beaten down.

Xiao Muli wondered why Situ Jin’s skills had improved so rapidly, and he silently made a resolution. Once his injuries were healed, he had to intensify his training. No matter what, he had to catch up in strength. He didn’t want to be the one getting beaten every time he encountered Situ Jin in the future; it was too embarrassing.

However, if Xiao Muli knew that his current pitiful state was largely due to his precious Situ Xin, his face would probably be as dark as could be.

As for the members of the Situ and Loo Families, after receiving the Cultivation Techniques suitable for them from Situ Xin, they all began to cultivate. And since she hadn’t yet gotten permission from her grandfather and maternal grandfather, Situ Xin had not told anyone about her Personal Space.
