Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator

Li Qingzhao looked at Zhan Chen with a puzzled look in her face. She could see that Zhan Chen was serious and she had never seen her son so serious before. Zhan Qingyue and little Tao also looked at Zhan Chen with puzzled looks in their eyes.

"Mother, I actually never intended to talk with you about this but I want to make sure something. So, I am asking for your forgiveness in advance", Zhan Chen looked at his mother with a serious look on his face.

He knew his words would reopen the wound in her mother's heart but he also wanted to her to learn the actual truth. So, he asked for his forgiveness in advance.

Li Qingzhao's brows furrowed slightly but she still nodded.

"Mother, does Ziming Yue have anything again us?", Zhang Chen looked at his mother with a serious look.

"Ziming Yue, which Ziming Yue? Are you talking about your aunt?", Li Qingzhao asked in confusion.

"Yes mother, I am asking about that aunt of mine?", Zhan Chen nodded his head.

"Why are you asking? Has she done something to you? Why are you using disrespectful words towards her? She is still your aunt", Li Qingzhao furrowed her pretty brows.

"Mother, have you noticed one thing? I couldn't progress in my cultivation no matter how hard I have tried", Zhan Chen asked with a profound look in his face.

Li Qingzhao nodded his head as it was the exact problem that was bothering her since a long time. Zhan Chen was initially a talented child. He attained the Meridian opening realm while he was only twelve but he had no progress since then.

They had consulted with many alchemists but it was to no avail. Everyone was telling that Zhan Chen was normal but his talent most be worst. As, he couldn't progress a step even after cultivating for years.

"Do you know mother? From when I couldn't cultivate?

Li Qingzhao shook her head as she was indeed not sure about what happened to Zhan Chen.

"I couldn't cultivate since that incident in uncle's palace", Zhan Chen looked at her mother's eyes.

Li Qingzhao became flustered after listening the words of Zhan Chan. "Chen-er, what do you mean by it? You can't slander your uncle like this. He was harsh to you but you can't blame him. Both of you kids had indeed gone overboard at that time ", she blurted out.

"When did I say anything against uncle?", Zhan Chen looked at his mother with a smile.

Li Qingzhao became speechless for a while then something struck her brain.

"Is it Ziming Yue? But how is it possible? She didn't do anything against you", Li Qingzhao looked at him with confusion.

"Mother, My convergence meridian was fractured but I have not found it until now. Now that I have recovered I can get a quick breakthrough. Then you will understand everything", Zhan Chen spoke with confidence.

"Conversation meridian? Evan if it was fractured how can it be healed? Chen-er, are you trying to fool me", a trace of anger appeared on the face of Li Qingzhao.

"Mother, please check my body with your essence energy", Zhan Chen show his palm to his mother.

Li Qingzhao had a sceptical look on her face but she still took a look. She placed her hand on Zhan Chen's and inject a trace of her essence energy into the palm of Zhan Chen.

She closed her eyes but her expression changed with every passing second.

"How is it possible?", she parted her mouth in astonishment. Sometimes later, her shock turned to exhilaration as her eyes welled up.

"It is good. Chen-er, God has not abandoned us yet", she held the hand of Zhan Chen with agitation. Drops of tear appeared on her pretty face.

"Aunt, what happened to Zhan Chen?', came the agitated voice of Zhan Qingyue. "Qingyue, your brother's body has recovered", Li Qingzhao spoke while trying to hold her tears.

"You don't know the exact condition of your brother's body but it was very severe. I thought without a third level or fourth level healing pill, he couldn't recover", Li Qingzhao explained to Zhan Qingyue.

"It was so severe! How dare the Gu clan treat little Chen like this", Zhan Qingyue spoke with agitation and fury. She knew the Gu clan beat Zhan Chen severely but she thought It was just some broken bones. Now that she had found out the exact condition, she felt agitated like never before.

"Big sis, Am not I fine now? So, why are you making such a face?", Zhan Chen spoke with a smile. Seeing his dazzling smile, Zhan Qingyue became dazed for a moment. Then her face reddened as she lowered her head.

"Mother, big sis, little Tao", Zhan Chen called out every one present.

"Please keep my recovery secret to everyone. If outsiders know about my recovery, it will cause a ruckus", Zhan Chen spoke with a serious face.

Li Qingzhao knew the gravity of this matter, so, she immediately agreed. Zhan Qingyue also wouldn't leak such a thing. Although she was a little clumsy before Zhan Chen, she was originally the most genius girl of Red cloud city. She grasped the situation immediately. Little Tao didn't understand such complex matters but she was absolutely loyal to Zhan Chen. She wouldn't say anything unless Zhan Chen permitted.

They left soon after so that Zhan Chen could rest. Before leaving, Li Qingzhao informed him about her relationship with his aunt. According to her, this aunt of his wanted to pair her with one of her brother but she rejected firmly. Since then, she was holding a grudge and show her maliciousness by ruthlessly attacking him.

The morning sun sprinkled it's golden rays on the Red cloud city. Zhan Chen opened his eyes and sat up. After a good rest, he was feeling better.

He tried to move his hands and felt absolutely fine. Then he stood up and stretched his limbs. He felt absolutely fine. "Looks like my body has digested the medicinal essence", Zhan Chen thought to himself.

He shook his head as he recalled the lie he had fabricated to fool his mother. He said to her that a mysterious expert came in his dream when he was in a coma. Since then, many profound techniques of alchemy and various profound cultivation methods kept appearing inside his dream.

Although Li Qingzhao felt sceptical about his words but she still accepted his explanation as it was the only thing that could explain his mysterious recovery.

"Now it is time to focus on my cultivation", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
