: I Have an Elder Brother? (1)
From the moment you became a Spiritual Monarch and the following stages of Spiritual Sovereign,
Spiritual Supremacy, and Spiritual Deity, they each had the level of elementary, intermediate,
advanced, and peak. Once your spiritual power was fully saturated, advancement would happen
automatically. However, heaven and earth laws would not descend for the advancement to the
intermediate, advanced, and peak levels. Heaven and earth laws would only descend for the
advancement to Spiritual Monarch, Spiritual Sovereign, Spiritual Supremacy, and Spiritual Deity.
Although Leng Ruoxue’s advancement was successful, and she had stopped absorbing spiritual
energy, she did not immediately leave the secret room. Instead, she began to cultivate advanced
spiritual skills. You could only cultivate heavenly spiritual skills at the Spiritual Sovereign stage, so she
planned to finish cultivating the advanced fire and wind element skills before leaving. This way, she
would at least have the ability to protect herself.
The advanced fire-element spiritual skill ‘Prairie Blaze Spark’ was one of the most powerful advanced
fire-element skills. Moreover, it was a group-attack skill. It could be considered as the upgraded version
of the ‘Explosive Flames Art’, but its power was several times stronger. ‘Flame Feathers’ was also one
of the mightiest advanced fire-element skills, but ‘Flame Feathers’ was a single-target skill. The
advanced wind-element skill ‘Wind Chasing Art’ was primarily used to increase movement speed
during combat, and it was the upgraded version of the ‘Quick Wind Art’. These advanced spiritual skills
were the ones that piqued Leng Ruoxue’s interest, so she cultivated them first. After learning these
skills to a point where she was fluent, she intended to leave seclusion, lest her grandfather and the
others have to wait for her anxiously. She decided to cultivate other skills at her own pace later.
When Leng Ruoxue opened the door of the secret room, a fluffy little beast jumped into her arms.
!!
“Big Sister, Baby missed you so much!” Baby laid needily in her arms.
Leng Ruoxue looked somewhat helplessly at Baby lying in her arms, oblivious to why this little thing
loved sticking to her.
“Big Sister missed you too,” Leng Ruoxue coaxed. “When Big Sister wasn’t around, was Baby a good
boy?”
“Big Sister, Baby was a very good boy!” The little beast raised a small paw, as if he was swearing.
“Miss, Baby said he wanted to protect you and was unwilling to leave the door of the secret room,” Cui
Zhu said to her young miss with a look of adoration on her face.
Leng Ruoxue looked down at the shy little beast in her arms. She initially thought that this little thing
just said it casually, but she didn’t expect him to really not move an inch and protect her at the door of
the secret room. Even without doing this, just his intention was enough to touch her heart, and the
initial annoyance she felt slowly faded away. From this moment on, she decided to love Baby as her
little brother.
“Where is Grandpa?” Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes glanced around.
“Old Master is in his study,” Lü Tao answered.
“I’ll go see Grandpa.” Holding Baby in her arms, Leng Ruoxue walked toward the study.
“Old man, your darling granddaughter is finally clear-headed. Are you very happy?” commented the
middle-aged man sitting opposite Leng Qingtian in the study.
“Of course I’m happy.”
“You must be so happy that you forgot you had a grandson! Hmph.” The middle-aged man snorted, a
displeased look on his face.
“How could I forget? Ruohan is the grandson I’m proudest of!”
Leng Ruoxue heard the voices coming from the study and stopped in her tracks. Grandfather has a
guest? While she was contemplating whether to go in or to return later, the door of the study opened.
“Xue’er! Hahaha, Grandpa’s dearest is finally out. Come! Let Grandpa take a good look at you.” When
Leng Qingtian saw his precious granddaughter standing at the door, his face lit up, and a wide smile
crept up on his face as he hugged her.
“Hmph!”
“Grandpa has a guest?” Upon hearing the snort, Leng Ruoxue turned her gaze toward the source. She
saw a middle-aged man who wasn’t particularly handsome but had an extraordinary presence. At first
glance, she could tell that he had been in a high position for a long time. Although he was restraining
his imposing manner currently, no one would doubt that he was a powerhouse. However, this person
didn’t seem to like her, so she began wondering if she had offended him somehow before.
“Xue’er, he is Grandpa’s old friend. Just call him Grandpa Lin,” Leng Qingtian introduced simply.
“Hello, Grandpa Lin,” Leng Ruoxue greeted politely.
“Well, old man, no wonder you dote on this granddaughter so much. Unexpectedly, your granddaughter
is such a rare genius. She’s already a Spiritual Monarch at such a tender age.” Lin Liang’s sharp eyes
sized up Leng Ruoxue with an intense gaze.
“Grandpa Lin, Xue’er is flattered. I was only able to advance so smoothly because of a spiritual
essence pill,” Leng Ruoxue explained with the reason she had discussed with her grandfather
beforehand.
“Spiritual essence pill? No wonder. With a spiritual essence pill, you can become a Spiritual Monarch
even with poor aptitude! Old man, you’re so biased. When Ruohan advanced, you were unwilling to
give him a spiritual essence pill!” Lin Liang shouted in discontent.
