Celestial Peak

Face palming, Wang Ling realized what was happening. There was no other person who can cause a commotion such as this other than himself.

There might be someone, but in the Wang Family, he is the only one who can do so after doing something that might cause self-harm. 

[I can't do anything about this anymore. I'll just let Butler Sun take care of the rest.]

He thought inside his head. Wang Ling was the type of person who will try to avoid anything that is a waste of time as much as he could. Dealing with the mess he had created can be dealt with by other people so why bother?

Wang Ling sighed before turning his head over at the garden of spirit plants. He was amazed at the sight of the spirit plants being cared for. Spirit plants were hard to take care of and they even have some sense of sentience which made it even harder.

Just take the Dragon Breathe Flower in front of him for example. This plant needs to be bathed with spirit qi with the attribute of lightning every week for it to live. Taking care of spirit plants was a hassle as it needs constant care.

But he had to say. The spirit plants in their garden were very lively and have vibrant colors. This shows just how much they were taken cared of. He could even see spirit plants buzzing as they bathed in sunlight.

"Mm, our gardeners are commendable for doing a great job of taking care of the spirit plants, don't you think so Yue?"

Wang Ling sang praises to Wang Yue without his knowledge. Even if he knew that Wang Yue was the one taking care of them, he will still say that she was doing a good job so it didn't really matter.

Wang Yue who was beside Wang Ling heard his praise and smiled heartily. Although it was done unconsciously, she was still praised. It even made her even more joyous by the fact that they were speaking with one another. She was praised, so that meant he was talking to her, correct? She was even asked a question so it was a definite fact that they were conversing.

Wang Yue did not let go of the chance of interaction with his older brother so she answered enthusiastically.

"Thank you Young… Big Brother, I have been working hard together Butler Sun and the others manage and keep the state of the garden this way. Fost… Mother has given me the task of taking care of her garden while she is away after all."

Wang Yue sounded proud at what she had accomplished. For a long time, she had taken care of the garden, she was proud of its appearance and state so praises directed at it was gratifying for her.

Her sweet and pure smile made Wang Ling smile as well.

[It's not so bad having a sister as cute as this one.]

An urge to pinch her cheeks suddenly rose from his heart. He attempted to suppress this urge but in the end, his hands move faster than his thoughts. Gently pinching Wang Yue's face, Wang Ling felt like he was handling marshmallows.

He was satisfied at what he had done just now. It would seem that even the strongest being of the Celestial Spirit Realm is not immune to cute and adorable being.

Wang Yue was surprised that her respected big brother would pinch her cheeks like this. She was startled for a second but later found that Wang Ling wasn't really pinching her and was merely touching her rosy cheeks.

[Big Brother has a side like this to him too?]

She found it interesting to see her big brother acting like so. The smile on his face as he gaze down upon her was filled with familial warmth which made her feel refresh. Wang Ling's face usually carried an expression filled with seriousness, a sight such as this was a new one.

Speaking truthfully Wang Yue had some questions she wanted to ask Wang Ling. Like what he was doing here when he's supposed to be resting in his room. However, Wang Ling looked so carefree at the moment that Wang Yue stopped caring for anything problematic.

A minute after pinching Wang Yue's cheeks, Wang Ling stopped and placed his hands on the little lass' head. At this moment he was very satisfied with his new life, he didn't have any siblings in the previous one so he was happy now that he had one.

Wang Yue smiled and chuckled before after seeing his smile, Wang Ling chortled and asked Wang Yue some questions regarding the spirit plants that could be found on the back garden.

"Isn't this plant [Holyleaf Grass]? Hmm, the quality is top-tier, do you also care for this plant, Yue?"

He asked Wang Yue so they can start a conversation. Wang Yue seemed to be interested in spirit plants so he picked spirit plants as the topic.

Wang Yue nodded her head and merrily conversed with Wang Ling.

"Yes I do, I am also caring for other spirit plants that Mother left. This is the [Powder Flower], it is a kind of spirit plant that helps people ease their mind and soul… this is the [Yellow Root], it emits a soothing aura that helps the body regenerate from fatigue…"

Wang Yue explained the different spirit plants that could be found in the back garden one by one. She didn't even noticed that she was talking nonstop until she finished the explanation of the last spirit plant.

She was embarrassed for speaking too much.

"Sorry about that Big Brother, I, I talk too much when it comes to spirit plants. Mother always told me about this."

Wang Yue was only ten years old this year but she was oddly mature for her age. She was aware of her surroundings and was very responsible, but when it comes to talking about spirit plants, she let go all of her pretense and acts like a child showing off to her family.

Seeing Wang Yue act so embarrass, Wang Ling shook his head. His sister was too self-conscious about her actions for her own good.

Chuckling, he spoke.

"Hmm, this Tigervines is about to mature and seeing that there's a blood red color appearing on the tip of its vines. It seems like this Tigervines will mutate and turn into a [Blood Tigervines]."

Not expecting Wang Ling to suddenly comment about such advance topic about spirit plants, Wang Yue was surprised. She was also aware about the impending mutation of the Tigervines, but she didn't think that Wang Ling would be aware of it.

"Big Brother, are you knowledgeable about spirit plants? Did you happen to read the [1-Tier Spirit Plants Encyclopedia]?"

There were ten books about spirit plants in the Wang Family library, but only one of them mentions anything about the mutation of spirit plants.

"I have read through all the books in the library. The ten books about spirit plants were good books, have you also read them yourself, Big Brother?" Wang Yue asked.

"Yes I have, the ten books gives a detailed explanation about spirit plants. But I couldn't find anything about higher tier spirit plants. I want to read more, but the lack of books is a problem."

Wang Ling answered.

Wang Yue's already brightened eyes brightened by another notch, her opinion towards Wang Ling was starting to elevate to new heights.

After knowing that Wang Ling was knowledgeable about spirit plants as much as she was, Wang Yue conversed with Wang Ling about different topics. They had a heated discussion about spirit plants, how they grow to what kind of evolution they had and their attributes.

While the brother and sister were talking with one another, Butler Sun had unknowingly returned to the back garden after sorting out the earlier commotion.

With tons of questions he wanted to ask Wang Ling in mind. He returned to the back garden as quickly as he could. He was worried about the two siblings who were in back garden.

"The Young Master and the Young Miss is getting more handful."

One was someone who had just woken up from a three days long slumber, while the other was a sleep deprived lass. The two were a handful on their own, so he didn't want to leave their sides in case something bad happened to any of them.

However, who would've thought that when he gets back from sorting out the commotion, he would find the Young Miss talking so intently with her brother. From what he could tell, her eyes were shining brightly as she talked about spirit plants with Wang Ling.

On the other side was Wang Ling who was only smiling at her while also giving his own opinion about the matter Wang Yue was talking about. It was truly a happy seen.

Seeing the Young Miss act like a proper child, smiling and laughing with rosy cheeks together with her big brother made Butler Sun's eyes water.

It had been a month since the Young Master's awakening, and ever since that day, his interaction with this little sister of his had been far too little. Even when they are eating together, their conversation never really last.

Acting like a stalker, Butler Sun hid in a nearby tree and waited for their little discussion about spirit plants to end before showing himself. He didn't want to become the third wheel on this happy occasion so he waited until the Young Miss finished her talk about a spirit plant named [Water Snake Grass].

[They should be done correct?]

Butler Sun checked and indeed they were done talking and Wang Yue had stopped talking for a while.

When he approached them, he reverted his sobbing look into a proper one but his eyes were still slightly red in color. However, one had to give him credit for trying to act as normal as he could because when he spoke, his voice was still the same as ever.

"Young Master what are doing here? Your body is still recovering, you might now know this but you have been asleep for three days. The cause of this is you overworking yourself by shutting yourself in the library for far too long. Please follow me to your room right now."

Wang Ling didn't say anything because he was contemplating about the information he was given just now.

[Three days of sleep and I have overworked myself.

Seems like they didn't see my broken qi pillars. Physician Mo should have seen it when he examined my body.]

Wang Ling was slightly confused about some things but he threw that notion at the back of his head for the moment as he had more pressing matters to finish.

"I am deeply sorry about that, but I assure you that I am fine. I don't know what medicine you have given me but I am feeling better than ever. You don't have to worry about me, Butler Sun.

"Also the reason why I left my courtyard is simply to find something to eat and look for you, Butler Sun."

"Look for me? Is there anything you need, Young Master?"

Butler Sun was surprised to hear that Wang Ling was actually looking for him.

Hearing what Butler Sun had said, he showed a serious expression on his face emphasizing how important what he was going to say next.

Taking a few deep breaths, he said.

"I want to cultivate. So can you please allocate some useful resources for me?"

Wang Ling spoke his piece rather bashfully.
