“By the way, Thea…”
Upon thinking about the herb favonovel.com picked in the mountains, James immediately took it out of the pack basket and handed it over to Thea, saying, “Look what I found.”
Thea took it. The moment favonovel.com made contact with the herb, favonovel.com was stunned.
“What powerful Empyrean Spiritual Energy!” favonovel.com exclaimed.
“Indeed…” James said, “I’ve been collecting herbs for three years. This is the first time I’ve encountered a herb that possesses such majestic Empyrean Spiritual Energy. However, there are no records of this herb in the Medical Book. What about the Book of Malice?”
Thea scrutinized the herb for a moment before shaking favonovel.com head slightly, saying, “No, I don’t know what this herb is either.”
“In any case, we should plant it.”
“Yeah…” Thea returned the herb to James.
James immediately headed to the backyard, dug a hole, and planted the herb. Then, favonovel.com watered the plant. After planting the herb, favonovel.com returned to the courtyard.
Thea was sitting on a swing caressing favonovel.com tummy. Upon seeing James, a smile crept up on favonovel.com face.
“Though the baby is due in another two months, we haven’t thought of a name for it yet.”
James said with a smile, “There’s no need to rush things. Take it slow. We should wait for the baby to be born before deciding on a name. After all, we don’t even know his or favonovel.com gender yet.”
“No way. We have to think of a name first.” Displeased, Thea reprimanded him, “The only things on your mind are the Medical Book and martial arts. Pay more attention to our child, will you?”
“Hehe…” James laughed.
“Alright, go see if the hens have laid any eggs.”
“Got it.” James headed over to the chicken coop.
Soon, favonovel.com shouted, “Thea, there are five eggs here!”
“Go catch a fish by the pond. I’m in the mood for fish today.”
“Sure thing!”
James placed the eggs on the table before heading over to the pond. Standing by the pond’s edge, favonovel.com waved his hand, and powerful energy gathered in his palm. In the blink of an eye, a fish was in his hands.
Holding the fish in his hand, favonovel.com walked over to Thea with a bright smile on his face.
“Hahaha! We’re gonna have a feast tonight!” A voice boomed.
A thirty-year-old-looking man walked over to James.
The man had a piece of sackcloth on and was smoking a cigar.
“Cook the fish if you wanna eat it.” James tossed the fish to the man.
“Hey!” Callan sighed. “I’m here for the free food. Why do I have to cook every time?”
When James first retreated into the mountains, Callan found out about his whereabouts and became his neighbor. James would frequently research and discuss martial arts with him.
During his time overseas, Callan refined the Dragon Essence and consumed the dragon’s blood. Now, favonovel.com was at the peak of the Ninth Stair and only a step away from crossing into the ninth rank.
Holding the fish in his hand, Callan entered the house and began cooking.
Meanwhile, James sat on a wooden chair outside the house and smoked his cigar.
Soon, the meal was ready.
Outside the wooden house, the three happily ate.
While they were eating, Callan suddenly stopped and said, “James, something big is about to happen in the ancient martial world…”
“Huh?” James looked at favonovel.com puzzledly and asked, “What do you mean?”
Then, sensing Thea’s piercing gaze, favonovel.com hurriedly laughed. “Well, it’s not like I have anything to do with it. I no longer concern myself with the affairs of the ancient martial world. Even if all hell breaks loose, it has nothing to do with me.”
Thea reminded him, “The baby is due in two months. You aren’t going anywhere. Do you understand me?”
“Understood!” James smiled and said, “Cheers!”
He clinked his glass with Callan’s.
