Chapter 9 Grace
"Our boy gave us a fresh life, right big sister?" Inside Anna's head, there was a cold but lovely voice speaking.
Anna smirks when she hears a voice in her head; she wasn't astonished by the voice's unexpected appearance because she is incredibly familiar with its owner.
With a slight smile, Anna remarked to Grace, "Ah, Grace, you appear to have awakened up. And certainly, he did give us a fresh start in life. I lost sight of the idea of recovering from the disease as you fell into a deep sleep in my mind, and now that you are back to being healthy, it still seems like a gigantic dream." Anna remarked this as she reflected on a few of her recent memories.
"Anna, you are absolutely right. However, looking back on the past is pointless for us right now; instead, we should diligently focus on cultivating ourselves to support our son in the future!" Grace exclaimed with a delighted smile on her face; her smile was like a cold goddess letting out a smile after a century, her beaming smile exuded pure joy and excitement, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. Her graceful demeanor only added to the radiance of the moment, filling the air with a contagious energy that left everyone around her feeling uplifted and elated. It was a truly beautiful sight to behold.
'It's been a long time since you've smiled so beautifully. Grace, I'm glad to see you smiling again!!' Looking at Grace, Anna pondered. When she last smiled like this, it was during Yuan's sixth birthday, and seeing her other half smile again filled her heart with joy. Grace's spirit falls into a deep slumber in her consciousness shortly after she becomes unwell.
"I had been asleep for a while now, quickly Let me take over the body. After a long time, I also yearn to embrace my darling son! Over the years, only I know how much I have missed him!" Grace couldn't wait to meet her son. because Yuan is born from both Anna and Grace, who both share the same body. Yuan is obviously her son, and she spoilt him more than Anna did.
When Anna saw Grace acting like a child, she could only shake her head. She could only sigh and transfer control of the body to Grace because she is fully aware of how Grace is feeling at the moment.
The moment Grace gained control of the body, Anna's compassionate and loving expression was quickly replaced by a little frigid yet delicate one. As a result, Grace is now Anna.
As Anna did first, Grace then stands up from her sitting position and moves her limbs a little to become used to the body after a prolonged period of inactivity.
"Cultivation!... What a miraculous thing it is. I could feel the profound energy that runs through every fiber of my body. Simply miraculous!" Grace briefly moved her limbs as she spoke. Also, she was astounded by the knowledge she gained while reading the "Heavenly Twin Heart Manual."
Emma, who was standing next to Anna, became perplexed at observing the shifts in her demeanor and couldn't help but ask, "Are you okay, mistress? You don't seem quite the same as you did before..."
Grace turned to face the voice when she heard it coming from behind her. She could tell Emma was perplexed.
"Ohh! This is nothing new. We simply swap positions with one another. As you may recall, my name is Grace right now." Anna told only Emma about her dual personality, according to Grace, and no one else, not even her birth parents, is aware of it.
'huh? Mistress Grace?.... However, Young Master claimed that after cultivating, they could become independent of one another. Is this true?' When she realized that the person in front of her was true "Grace," her other half, and not Anna, she thought to herself.
"B But the young master said that you two can separate from each other after....."
"Say no more!" Grace interrupted Emma's speech and said, "Darling did really claim that we may be divided into two distinct people, but right now our cultivation basis is insufficient. To be able to divide and recombine, we must pass through to the following realm in order to do that!"
"So, it's like that huh? .." Emma then shook her head in understanding because she is currently a cultivator as well.
"Dinner is ready!!"
At this moment, they heard Lily calling out to them to have dinner from the kitchen.
"Let's go have dinner first, Emma, before it gets cold; we can still cultivate after dinner, shall we?" Grace said this with a blank expression on her face.
"Naturally, Mistress!" Emma agreed.
Together, they walk out of the room and into the dining room, where dinner will be served.

Yuan was in his room and staring at the dragon egg that was sitting atop his bed. He was considering the best place to place the egg without even the least damage.
"Do you know how long it will take for the egg to hatch, Nora? since I don't have a good hiding place for it!"
[According to Xi Meili's cultivation base, it will hatch in about a month. You can also just command her to enter your body to cut the hatching time in half.] Nora elucidated.
'Thinking about it, I've read the same thing in novels; sigh, how could I have missed such an obvious thing? I'm such a moron!' As he read the same process in the novels, he mumbled inside his head.
"Why don't you enter my body until you hatch from the egg, Xi Meili?" Yuan said softly as he cherished his hand over the egg.
It wasn't long before the egg transformed into a golden ray of light and entered Yuan's body. Yuan experienced a warm sensation as the golden light penetrated his body, but it quickly subsided when he felt the egg inside of him encircling his chest.
The Blue Jade Sword was then inserted into the system storage after that. Then, having achieved a breakthrough into the Spirit Warrior realm, which causes him to perspire heavily, he pulled off his sweat-stained clothes.
As he recalls from recollections of earlier years, showers do not exist in this world, so after stripping off his clothing, he goes to the bathroom to take a bath.
[Host! I advise you to purchase a Body Refining Pill from the System Shop, which will purge your body of any impurities and greatly speed up your cultivation!] After weighing the benefits this kind of medicine will offer for his future cultivation, Nora suggested it.
"Purchase it!" Yuan immediately said that he remembered the names of those cultivation pills and the astonishing effects they gave their users after hearing Nora's explanation of the pill's results.
[Certainly, Host] Nora responded.
<Ding! 50 SP has been deducted! You have bought a Tier Three Peak Quality Body Refining Pill!>
<SP remaining: 525>
A pill with three wave-like lines on it and a sweet odor immediately materialized in his hand. It was muddy in color and had a muddy appearance.
In case he loses his balance while taking the pill, Yuan crossed his legs in the lotus posture on the bathroom floor before doing so.
*gulp*
<You have consumed a Body Refining Pill>
< Impurities will be now clenched from your body! >
As the pill begins to work, his body begins to heat up, and a chilly sensation that is fresher than breaking through in cultivation spreads across him. The only way he could explain the sensation was as though he had been reborn.
"What a refreshing feeling it is....what the hack?" When he opened his eyes, a pungent odor that reeked of rotten eggs hit him square in the nose. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝘨
"What is this smell?.. This smell like shit, how awful!" Upon seeing his body, which was covered in a thick layer of black, slimy gunk, Yuan felt like throwing up.
'wait.. wait a damn minute! is this what they called impurities?' He reasoned that since the blank gunk in that manga and the novels from his previous life were similar, one of the novels or mangas must have addressed the same thing.
"The way it right now reminds me of one of those novels, and mana in my former life, it was so sticky! While suffering the repulsive scent emanating from some of them," Yuan murmured as he held several of them and massaged them between his fingers.
[Absolutely, Host, those are impurities! You should wash yourself since it is awful to look.!] Nora immediately said.
Yuan then went straight to the bathroom to wash. There is only one issue, which is that this world is absent of soap. Because he had no other option, he next thoroughly washed every part of his body, scrubbing it, and evaluating if the foul stench was gone or not. He exits the bathtub and uses Qi to completely dry up his body after making sure the foul stench has vanished for good.
He got out of the bathroom, changed into a fresh set of clothes, and adjusted his unkempt hair in the mirror. He felt astounded.
" Am I seeing things, or is this actually me...? " He muttered in astonishment when he saw himself in the mirror and saw a young man who looked very handsome and appealing.
"Ouch! This is real... It's actually me... Hahaha," He laughed with delight, seeing how handsome he had become.
After taking the pill, his face appears more attractive than before. His skin is now lighter, softer, and more glowing than that of a girl in her twenties; he has also grown a little taller with a less muscular body. With a face like this and the profound aura he exuded, he could charm any woman in a matter of seconds.
"I look very attractive now; I'm curious how the girls will react to this." He imagined the expressions they'd make when they noticed the new him; it'd be hilarious.
[Host, you've grown a lot in appearance! I'm curious how the girls will react to your allure.?] Nora complimented.
"Thanks, Nora!" Yuan responded.
"Dinner is ready!"
He then heard Lily calling out to everyone to have dinner from the kitchen.
"Ohh, dinner is already ready? Time sure flies fast!" He muttered those words before leaving the room and going to the dining area for dinner.

ραпdα n?νa| сom As Yuan enters the dining room, he notices that Anna, Lily, and Emma are sitting at the table unattended, waiting for him to arrive.
Then Yuan focused more intently on his mother, who now appeared to be quite different from the often jovial Anna; instead, she appeared to be a bit frigid and without many facial expressions.
'there is only one possibility, she's mom's other half!' Looking at the indifferent Anna, he thought to himself. He then observes their aura, which is that of a Spirit Apprentice realm cultivator.
"Ohh It appears that you two have succeeded in becoming cultivators, this is wonderful.!" Yuan spoke as he approached them.
"Ohh Yuan..." Lily was about to say something when she looked at Yuan and abruptly stopped herself out of amazement and bewilderment.
His mother and Emma turned around to view him as Lily stopped talking, and they were both immensely shocked by his new appearance.
Yuan's stunning appearance left them in awe. They were astonished by his remarkable handsomeness, which seemed to radiate from every inch of his being. His chiseled jawline, piercing eyes, and perfectly styled hair created a magnetic presence that left them speechless. They couldn't help but stare, completely captivated by his beauty. They had never seen someone so handsome before, and it was a sight they would never forget.
'Wow, so handsome! Young master became so handsome, but how?' Emma thought as her heartbeat accelerated as she awoke from her trance, her face flushed.
"Yuan, is that really you? How did you get to be this handsome? What occurred?"
His mother approached him and cradled his face in her hands while asking him a series of questions.
When he turned to look at the others, he saw that they were all nodding in agreement with his mother's statement since they were all thinking the same thing. The situation is a massive mess for him to handle, and he is unsure of how he should respond.
"Well, it's just that I utilized a pill to purge my body of impurities after previously breaking through to the Spirit Warrior realm. The outcome is visible in front of you, as you can see!" Since he had already decided to give them after they reached the warrior realm, Yuan said this openly.
"You promise to me, Little Yuan, you'll give me one of those pills!" Lily said this while making a puppy face and demanding the pills from him.
'How cute...' he thought.
"Will my darling not give me one?" As she hugged him from behind, his mother said this with a small pout.
His body jerked in excitement as his hormones went into overdrive when he felt her boobs rubbing against his back.
"After you all enter the warrior realm, I'll give every one of you a pill, I promise. Cultivators from the warrior realm are the only ones who can use this pill. Wait until then, you reach the Spirit Warrior Realm!" Yuan explained briefly why they couldn't use the pill for the time being.
The three of them were a little sad when they heard what he said, but they had little choice but to travel quickly to the warrior realm.
Each one of them settles down and begins to eat.
