Miracle Doctor Miss Jiu 39 True Kinship Part 2

"That's so true. And Young Master Jiu has such a dignified and upright mind that he turned a blind eye to all the temptations that we laid before him. If not for the need to cure those fellows, he might not have even accepted this set of spiritual tools."

"Warm and gentle like the sun, gifted with outstanding talent, clean from corruption by not taking any bribes, as well as honest and upright? No one can help but to admire him…"

…

Soon, with her "giving a sweet treat after meting out a harsh lesson" strategy, news of Lu Jiu Que's Young Master Jiu, the apostle of the Son of G.o.d, and his healing hands that asked for nothing in return for saving the people of the Qing Yan Empire quickly spread around Fish Dive City.

Everyone held Young Master Jiu in high regard as they admired him and showered him with compliments. There were even people who talked their heads off and gave extravagant accounts, as though they had seen Young Master Jiu save the people with their own eyes.

But all this had nothing to do with Lu Jiu Que. Her target was only one person from Heavenly Divination Sect and not one more.

Lu Jiu Que quietly snuck into her room and hid the white robe carefully. Again, she changed into the worn-out clothes that were in such a state because of their frequent was.h.i.+ng. Then she pushed open the door of Aunt Chang's room, which was next to hers.

Aunt Chang was still sleeping, but her rest didn't seem very stable, the indications of deep fatigue visible between her brows.

Lu Jiu Que's brows furrowed as she walked over to Aunt Chang's side to feel her pulse. This was when she realized that Aunt Chang's body was severely damaged.

"Darn it…" Lu Jiu Que cursed aloud. If this continued, Aunt Chang's body would be unable to hold out longer than a year.

Fortunately, she found out early about this early enough that, with slow conditioning, she would be able to make improvements to Aunt Chant's condition.

But this was just a cure for the symptoms and not the root cause. After all, her body had been left to deteriorate for so many years. Compared to nursing her back to health through recuperating, the best choice was to have Aunt Chang cultivate Star Soul Power.

The bodies of Star Soul Masters were stronger than those of ordinary people. Once one broke through a certain level, his or her lifespan would also be prolonged accordingly.

But generally speaking, the best time to commence the cultivation of Star Soul Power and gain enlightenment was at the age of five.

A five-year-old child could gain knowledge about aspects of the cultivation like foundations, talent, and affinity for Star Soul Power after undergoing a test.

While slowly acc.u.mulating these things from the age of five, one could go from a star apprentice to becoming a Star Soul Master, albeit step by step.

The original host of this body was, beyond all doubt, ascertained to become a piece of trash of no worth. This was determined after she took the test at the age of five.

Aunt Chang was already in her fifties. If anyone heard of Lu Jiu Que's idea to have a person in her fifties start from scratch and cultivate Star Soul Power, they were bound to laugh so hard that they'd have to gasp for air.

But no matter what, she had to give it a shot. There was no such thing as impossible in her dictionary!

Once she entered a sect and obtained their cultivation techniques, she would be able to cultivate Star Soul Power alongside Aunt Chang.

A hand suddenly grabbed Lu Jiu Que's hand tightly, interrupting her thoughts.

Lu Jiu Que lifted her head to meet Aunt Chang's worried and loving gaze.

"Missy, what's wrong with you? This expression doesn't suit you…" Aunt Chang said quite weakly.

Lu Jiu Que froze. That hand was already caressing her at the spot between her brows, seeming intent on wiping away the stress between them.

"Missy, you're the last in the bloodline of our Lu family… The only hope of all the ancestors of the Lu family was for you to be able to live your life as your heart pleased, without any shackles holding you back. Live freely. Remember, no matter what, that there is nothing more important than this… No matter what…"

Living her life as her heart pleased, without any shackles holding her back—living freely.

Lu Jiu Que thought of the pitiful creature she had been in her previous life, destined to exist only for her family at home for her entire life, imprisoned and tortured by hatred, and then she felt a slight sting in her eyes.

Though she had never met them before, everything that the Lu family had poured into Lu Jiu Que was certainly what she would call true kins.h.i.+p…
