Fang Ruotang was both amused and exasperated. What did it mean to be presumptuous and think you were doing something for the other person's own good? This kind of thing could be considered good too!
"I still have one each of the metal, fire, wood, and earth elements, as well as two dark spiritual roots. Mother, Aunt, how about I change your spiritual roots?"
The Earth Spirit Root was obtained from True Person Yao Guang; the rest were leftovers taken from the seven evil cultivators.
"If you don't think the source of your spiritual roots is dirty, it would be better to change them sooner and start cultivating sooner. Although these spiritual roots are not top-notch, they are all single spiritual roots. If you practice diligently, you may have the opportunity to ascend to the Immortal Realm with your elder sister in the future."
My aunt's eyes lit up immediately.
Instead of impulsively making a choice, he calmly asked, "Should we wait until your grandfather and the others return before discussing this? What if they have different opinions?"
"What are they thinking?" Fang Ruotang tilted her head and asked, "They're all in the imperial court and can't let go of such a huge mess of things. Why don't Mother and Aunt start cultivating first?"
"Let's wait until your father and the others come back before we talk about it!" Madam Shu echoed.
Fang Ruotang said "Oh," not quite understanding. Just then, Old Madam Fang came out, and Fang Ruotang repeated what she had said to her.
Unlike her two daughters-in-law, who waited for their husbands to come back and make decisions, Madam Fang asked Fang Ruotang with a smile.
"Which one of the grandmothers do you think is more suitable, Xiao Liu?"
“Grandmother, what do you like to do, fight or support? If you like to fight for justice, then choose the gold spiritual root or the dark spiritual root. However, the dark spiritual root requires a person with a firm mind to achieve something. If you don’t like fighting, you can choose the wood spiritual root and then come with me to the Cloud Deep Continent to raise spiritual plants and such. However, I am not often in the sect.”
When the topic of accompanying her daughter came up, Madam Shu couldn't help but move.
She has three children, none of whom live with her.
She wasn't in charge of managing the household affairs, and her husband wasn't home during the day either. In fact, she had become increasingly idle since her child left home.
“Grandmother is getting old and doesn’t like to move around. I think the Wood Spirit Root is fine. She can cultivate in the sect, grow flowers, and plant grass.”
"Yes, yes, yes! So Grandma, I'll just change it for you!"
"Okay! Thank you for your help, Xiao Liu."
"No need to work! Hehe."
Fang Ruotang happily took the old lady's arm and walked inside.
Shu's shoulders slumped, and she stared longingly at the backs of the grandfather and grandson. Cui looked at them, thought for a moment, and then laughed.
"What, you also want to choose a wood spirit root?"
"No, I just think it's good for a wood spirit root to stay by a child's side."
"If you want to stay by your child's side, even an earth spirit root will do! Can planting be done without soil?"
"That's right!"
Shu's eyes lit up immediately, and she followed him, muttering, "I'll tell Xiao Liu to change his spiritual root in a bit, so that the good ones won't be gone. What about you?"
Cui hesitated slightly before saying, "I've been trapped in this house for so long. I actually want to go out and see the world. And if I ever have the chance to go to the Immortal Realm, I don't want to hold my daughter back. It would be best if I were to go to a more aggressive one, so that I can support my daughter in case anything happens."
Shu felt that Cui's words made a lot of sense.
"Sister-in-law, should I also..."
Shu interrupted, both amused and exasperated, "What are you thinking! No matter where Xiao Liu goes, no one can bully him. The only thing you need to do is protect yourself and not become a burden."
"That's right, our sixth grader is the best."
“Our Shengtang is no less impressive.”
"That's right, that's right! All the girls in our Fang family are the best, the most outstanding people!"
The two sisters-in-law looked at each other and laughed.
Fang Ruotang didn't rush to change the spiritual root for Old Madam Fang. Instead, she carefully explained the advantages and disadvantages of various spiritual roots, which Cui and Shu heard clearly from behind.
"...That's about all I know so far. Grandmother, do you think you should still choose the wood elemental root? If you decide, I'll change it for you as soon as possible. If you really don't like it, it's okay to wait. There will be other opportunities in the future."
Everyone's cultivation process is different. After Fang Ruotang learned that there is no reincarnation in the Ghost Path, she began to feel resistant.
She no longer wanted her family members to be reincarnated into the Human Emperor Banner after death. She felt that it would be too selfish of her to make them sacrifice their own reincarnation to accompany her.
“My grandmother is getting old and doesn’t like to travel around. I think the wood elemental root suits me well, so I won’t change it. I’ll stick with this one.”
"Okay! I'll change it for you as soon as possible."
Fang Ruotang is an impatient person; once she decides to do something, she does it immediately.
He took out the spirit stones and began setting up the formation.
Madam Cui and Madam Shu watched anxiously from the side, asking worriedly, "Is everything alright?"
"What could possibly be wrong? I'll change Seventh Brother's clothes. It'll only take a little while. Look at Seventh Brother now, isn't there anything wrong with him?"
"Yes, yes! But your grandmother is getting old, shouldn't she take some care of her health before the transplant?" Cui Shi looked both relieved and worried, her expression conflicted.
Fang Ruotang pouted slightly, unconsciously displaying the coquettishness of a little girl in front of her family, "Even my aunt doesn't believe Xiao Liu anymore."
"No, that's not true. How could that be? Your aunt trusts you the most. Alright, alright, your aunt won't say anymore. Can your aunt stay here and watch over things?"
"No, Auntie, you and my mother should go out!"
Changing one's spiritual root is not a pleasant thing; the bloody scene is bound to instill fear in people.
Cui and Shu left the old lady's room, looking back every few steps.
Fang Ruotang fed the old lady the spiritual fruit, comforted her for a few moments, and then used her spiritual power to knock her down, ensuring that she wouldn't wake up during the process of changing her spiritual root.
Practice makes perfect.
Fang Ruotang quickly replaced her spiritual root and then woke up Old Madam Fang.
"Grandmother, wake up."
Old Madam Fang slowly woke up, saw Fang Ruotang's face, her memories returned, she checked her physical condition, and asked uncertainly, "Has this not been changed yet?"
"It's all been changed."
"Why don't you feel anything at all?"
In her understanding, changing one's spiritual root was like forcibly pulling a bone out of one's body and replacing it with another. She thought it would be excruciatingly painful, but she didn't experience any pain at all.
"You have to trust your granddaughter's skills," Fang Ruotang replied with a smile.
The little mirror spoke at this moment.
A huge cloud of calamity had just formed outside, but luckily I noticed it in time and went to negotiate.
【Thanks a lot. 】
These are all small things; it's a blessing for Xiao Jingzi to be able to do things for adults.
[A lackey.]
Fang Ruotang smiled. At this moment, the people in the courtyard heard the commotion inside the house and guessed that the person had probably finished, but they dared not disturb them.
It wasn't until Fang Ruotang opened the door and saw that her grandfather and the rest of the family had returned and were all waiting there that they rushed forward.
"Is your grandmother alright?" everyone asked in unison.
Fang Ruotang shook her head, then playfully said happily, "It's fine! But Grandmother said she's going to Cloud Deep Continent with me and doesn't want you anymore. Grandfather, are you panicking? Why don't you take this opportunity to relinquish your power and come with us to Cloud Deep Continent?"
