Chapter 101: Wasn’t Excited in the Slightest

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Only people who truly become body cultivators will realize how painful it is to advance their level. In order to strengthen their body so that they are stronger than normal people, the effort that they have to put in far exceeds that of a mystic cultivator by who knows how many times.
This tribulation was not something that mystic cultivators could comprehend.
It could be said that mystic cultivators were blessed by the heavens. Normally, just by becoming a mystic cultivator, a person’s body would undergo great improvements, and their physiques naturally become stronger while they are cultivating mystic energy, so it was superfluous for them to train their bodies as well.
However, body cultivators completely relied on external force hitting them to raise their resistance strength. Hellish training was the only way for them to raise their physiques.
The advancement of a body cultivator was incredibly slow. Every layer of metamorphosis of their corporeal body depended on the cultivator’s root constitution. There were a lot of body cultivators with poor root constitutions who stay at first-layer body cultivation for their entire lives.
Yet, after eating this peach, Qiao Zhongxing realized with surprise that he had painlessly transitioned into third-layer body cultivation—something that he had never experienced before.
Such a relaxing advance in level caused him to remain dumbfounded even now; he felt like he was dreaming.
He had been stuck at second-layer body cultivation for an entire three years, so he found it rather inconceivable that he leveled up in the blink of an eye like this.
By contrast, Qiao Mu also advanced to level-four mystic cultivator all of a sudden, but she did not feel anything extraordinary about it and her face was as stoic and indifferent as usual.
Heh, what was there to be excited about? If she had managed to take all of the mystic energy in the paradise for her own use that day, it would not be a boast to say that it was possible for her to be a level-six or level-seven mystic cultivator by now, let alone a level-four mystic cultivator!
As soon as she remembered that cheeky tree’s selfishness, Qiao Mu’s feelings would take a dive!
Qiao Mu unexpectedly felt her weight disappear under her and found herself being joyfully picked up by Second Uncle, her brows twitching continuously.
In truth, as someone in her 30s, she really did not enjoy other people picking her up on a whim!
To her relief, Qiao Zhongxing did not hold her for too long and settled her on the carriage with a chuckle. Then, he jumped onto the carriage and whipped the horse, heading toward the village.
After bringing Qiao Mu home, Qiao Zhongxing made another trip back without stopping to rest in order to lead the remaining five yellow-maned horses home.
Wei Ziqin had concocted a table of dishes and invited Qiao Zhongxing inside the courtyard to chat over a drink with Qiao Zhongbang.
Qiao Mu was not hungry yet, so she led a horse in each hand and left. Qiao Zhongbang stared after his eldest daughter’s back silhouette with mixed feelings in his eyes.
Qiao Zhongxing took a small sip of the bamboo leaf brew, and his eyes squinted in pleasure. Then, he glanced at Qiao Zhongbang and asked, “Eldest Brother, what’s up with you?”
“Qiaoqiao, this child… Sigh…” Qiao Zhongbang breathed a long sigh. This child’s change was too dramatic. Sometimes, she felt so much like a stranger to him that he could not help but feel fearful.
Qiao Zhongxing paused his movements with the chopsticks and shook his head at his brother. “Eldest Brother, it’s not that I, your little brother, want to lecture you. A wonderful, sensible child like Qiaoqiao is hard to come by. What could you possibly be dissatisfied about with her?”
“Today, your Eldest Sister-in-Law told me that we are moving from the village in two days.” Qiao Zhongbang’s eyes were brimming with emotional turmoil. When he heard this, he at first thought that his wife was joking with him.
They had lived in Qiaotou Village for so many years, and it had always been fine, so how could they simply move at a moment’s notice?
Qiao Zhongxing scratched his nose. “I heard about this matter also. Let’s move. It’s not like this is any good place. Eldest Brother, let me tell you…”
As Qiao Mu walked into the distance, the two Qiao brothers’ chatter was tossed to the back of her mind.
She led the horse and entered the nearby home of Qiao Liu.
Upon hearing a noise, Qiao Liu’s wife walked out speedily. “Qiaoqiao’s here.”
