"What about Chuan'er? Wanwan, didn't you say you could restore Chuan'er to health tonight?"

Chu Yunzhou looked at his eldest nephew and asked somewhat nervously!

"Of course! Just a moment!"

As Sheng Wanwan spoke, she made a hand seal and chanted:

"The soul is at ease, and the body is free from all burdens."

Three souls and seven spirits, complete and joyful.

The Ten Directions Gods protect you and dispel evil spirits!

"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! Go!"

As Sheng Wanwan finished speaking, she pointed her index finger to one of the grave mounds, on which the name of General Chu was written on the stone tablet.

As Sheng Wanwan pointed her index finger, a green will-o'-the-wisp floated out of the grave and landed between Chu Qingchuan's eyebrows.

Chu Xiuyuan and Chu Yunzhou were stunned by what they saw!

"This is……"

"Holy crap! What is this thing?"

Chu Xiuyuan and Chu Yunzhou spoke in unison.

Sheng Wanwan smiled and said:

"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, this is my eldest cousin's spirit!"

If I'm not mistaken! This earth spirit must have sensed the danger and knew that his descendants would be in trouble, so he hid his eldest cousin's earth spirit in his own grave.

If that weren't the case, my older cousin wouldn't just be mentally challenged now, he'd be dead!

"This is an Earth Soul? An Earth Soul can live even after leaving the body?"

Chu Yunzhou stared at Sheng Wanwan in utter astonishment.

“Of course you can live! Death only comes when all three souls leave the body and the seven spirits dissipate. But if you lose your earth soul, you'll become an idiot like your older cousin!” Sheng Wanwan explained!

"Oh! I see!"

Chu Yunzhou nodded, then seemed to remember something.

He waved his hand aimlessly in front of Chu Qingchuan's eyes, and when Chu Qingchuan didn't react, he couldn't help but worry.

"Something's not right! Chuan'er doesn't seem to be awake yet! Why does he still seem so dazed?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiuyuan also frowned.

"Brother, break your curse!"

Sheng Wanwan looked at Sheng Wenjin and smiled slightly.

"Ha! Clever!"

As Sheng Wenjin spoke, he gently touched Chu Qingchuan's brow with his finger, and Chu Qingchuan's eyes immediately became lively.

"Second Uncle, Third Uncle? What are we doing here? And why do you two look so much older?"

Chu Qingchuan frowned, puzzled. He then looked at his hands, touched his cheeks, and finally asked in confusion, "What's wrong with me? How did I suddenly become an adult?"

Seeing Chu Qingchuan's expression, Chu Xiuyuan and Chu Yunzhou both turned to look at Sheng Wanwan.

"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, don't worry! The Earth Soul is the master of memories and wisdom. The Earth Soul has been in a deep sleep for more than ten years, so both his mind and memories are still at the time when the Earth Soul left his body."

However, his brain is now that of an adult!

He learns things very quickly.

With proper guidance, he'll grow into a normal adult in no time!

Sheng Wanwan comforted her with a smile.

"Oh! That's good! That's good..." Chu Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He was truly afraid of seeing the disappointment in his older brother's eyes when he returned.

"Wanwan, thank you so much! You've worked so hard! Without you, our Chu family... our Chu family might have... died out!"

Chu Yunzhou's voice was choked with emotion.

"Third Uncle, what are you saying? You are Wanwan's family, and you are good to Wanwan! Of course, Wanwan wants the same in return! Besides, it was just a small favor, there's no need to thank me!"

However, if my third uncle wants to thank me, that's fine too!

"How about you take me to Yanyu Tower for some meat? The kind where there's no limit to how much I can eat?"

Sheng Wanwan blinked.

"Alright! Your third uncle will treat you to lunch at Yanyu Tower. Eat as much as you want, and I won't tell your mother!"

Looking at Sheng Wanwan's adorable and clever appearance, Chu Yunzhou poked her little nose, affectionately pulled her into his arms, and walked down the mountain...

"Third Uncle, Third Uncle, I want to go to Yanyu Tower too! I want to eat the food from Yanyu Tower!"

Chu Qingchuan gave chase.

"Alright! I'll treat you to a meal! But you're all grown up now, so stop being so impulsive! If you're going to pretend, at least act like an adult. Otherwise, others will laugh at our Chu family!"

Chu Yunzhou said meaningfully!

"Don't worry! Third Uncle, your nephew is the best at pretending! I guarantee it'll be convincing!"

Chu Qingchuan said with a smile.

"Okay!"

...

Chu Xiuyuan watched the figures of the group walking away, tears welling up in his eyes.

He was so happy today!

I'm so happy!

"Wen Jin, let's go too!" Chu Xiuyuan said, glancing at Sheng Wen Jin beside him.

"good!"

Sheng Wenjin agreed and followed them down the mountain...

...

None of the Chu family members slept; they all waited in the hall for everyone to return...

Sister-in-law Jiang, the eldest daughter-in-law of Chu, was restless and paced back and forth in the hall...

When she saw everyone return, she stared intently at her son. Chu Qianhan sat in her wheelchair, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

On the way, Chu Qingchuan heard Chu Yunzhou talk about his situation over the years. He felt sorry for his parents, who had worried about him for eighteen years.

Over the past eighteen years, he could hardly imagine how his parents had fared. His eyes reddened as he strode into the hall.

He knelt down in front of Chu Qianhan and Jiang Shi with a thud.

"Father! Mother! Your unfilial son has caused you worry!"

This kneeling brought tears to everyone's eyes.

Jiang hugged her son tightly and burst into tears.

The pain that had been building up inside me for years was released in an instant!

"Chuan'er, I thought I would never see you healthy and well again! Do you know? I almost went crazy!"

"I'm sorry, Mother! I'm so sorry! I've caused you so much worry! I'm so sorry!"

Chu Qingchuan hugged Jiang tightly, choking back tears as he apologized.

With red eyes, Chu Qianhan said, "Uncle Fu, go quickly to Mother's courtyard and see if she's asleep! If she's not asleep, tell her this news as soon as possible."

Old Madam Chu also stayed here for half the night. Fearing that Old Madam Chu wouldn't be able to stay up, Madam Chu forcibly dragged her back to her own courtyard to rest.

Chu Qianhan felt that his mother must also be unable to sleep, so he instructed the old steward of the mansion to go and check on her.

Uncle Fu was also very happy, and upon hearing this, he quickly agreed and ran outside.

"Father! Your leg?" Chu Qingchuan asked, frowning as he looked at his father.

"It's alright! My leg has regained feeling thanks to your little cousin! I believe that given time, I will definitely be able to stand up again!"

Chu Qianhan looked at his eldest son and patted him on the shoulder.

"Father, my second and third uncles already told me about our family's situation on the way, so please rest assured. I will definitely practice martial arts diligently and uphold the honor of our Chu family!"

Although Chu Qingchuan only has the mental capacity of a ten-year-old, he was very intelligent when he was ten. So after understanding the situation, he already knew how he should live his life in the future!

"Good! Good! Father believes in you!"
