My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 188 - 139: A Letter from the Old Fox to the Young Fox

"Master, you’ve returned." Seeing Xu Muhai arrive, Li Hengsheng strode forward and bowed with cupped fists toward Xu Muhai.

"Postnatal Realm." Xu Muhai nodded, "Not bad."

"I’ve never seen Inner Strength so robust at the Postnatal Realm." On the side, Xu Kui circled Li Hengsheng several times, marveling in astonishment.

Although Li Hengsheng was merely at the Postnatal Realm, his imposing manner was even more formidable than Postnatal Perfection.

Hearing the praise from both, Li Hengsheng sighed lightly. Only he knew the hardships involved—if it weren’t for the Sixth Grade Realm-Breaking Pill given by Xue Qianbai, he would’ve been unable to break through to the Postnatal Realm.

His physical body was too strong during the Transcendent Realm, unexpectedly creating a barrier. Fortunately, the Realm-Breaking Pill was of Sixth Grade, sufficiently potent; otherwise, the Fifth Grade ones might’ve lacked the needed power. It’s likely that within the entire Cangyuan Realm, few could struggle as much as he did to break into the Postnatal Realm.

Li Hengsheng thought he should find a chance to thank Xue Qianbai.

"Xu Kui, go ahead and get busy. Hengsheng and I will have a talk," said Xu Muhai to Xu Kui.

"Yes," Xu Kui nodded and then left.

"Let’s take a walk," Xu Muhai looked at Li Hengsheng.

"Alright."

The two walked on Cyan Rain Mountain, and by now, the weather had turned colder, with fallen leaves piling on the ground, rustling underfoot.

"I heard upon my return that you achieved quite good results at the Ten Thousand Beasts Collection." The two walked leisurely.

Xu Muhai looked at the disciple beside him with heartfelt gratification.

"It’s alright," Li Hengsheng chuckled foolishly, feeling a bit proud yet maintaining a humble attitude.

"You managed to fight your way to the Thirteen Islands. If I’m not mistaken, you’ve realized the realm of ’the spear moving with the heart,’ haven’t you?" Xu Muhai asked.

"Yes," Li Hengsheng replied, "Though I haven’t mastered it perfectly, I can use it preliminarily and still need to improve."

Hearing Li Hengsheng admit he truly comprehended the realm, Xu Muhai couldn’t help but inhale sharply, despite his earlier suspicions.

Because when Li Hengsheng perceived that realm, he was merely in the Transcendent Realm!

To grasp the realm of ’the spear moving with the heart’ in the Transcendent Realm reveals how profound Li Hengsheng’s perception truly is. Such talent is rare beyond measure, and if Li Hengsheng manages to eventually break into the Innate Realm, his potential would be boundless.

Xu Muhai’s gaze toward Li Hengsheng was both awe-struck and regretful.

The amazement was due to Li Hengsheng’s exceptionally high and impressive perception, yet regretful due to his mediocre natural aptitude, which slowed his cultivation speed significantly compared to others.

Even with the generous resources provided by powerhouse Li Changqing for Li Hengsheng’s cultivation, it’s no faster than an average person’s progression.

Hence, Li Hengsheng aiming to break through to the Innate Realm is as challenging as reaching the heavens, a difficulty comparable to others advancing to the Great Martial Sect.

"Apart from your senior disciple, you’re the one most worry-free among these disciples," Xu Muhai patted Li Hengsheng’s shoulder.

He then took out the box given by Li Changqing and handed it to Li Hengsheng, saying, "Celebrating your breakthrough to the Postnatal Realm, your master gifts you a treasure."

It’s not that Xu Muhai was stingy in merely passing on someone else’s gift; after his trip to Celestial Sea City, he’d almost depleted his savings, leaving him little with which to buy Li Hengsheng a present.

"Thank you, Master."

Li Hengsheng accepted the box, feeling its weight, and curiously asked, "Master, what treasure is inside?"

"Inside here..." Xu Muhai, remembering he hadn’t opened it, could only say, "Wait until you return and open it yourself. You’ll find out—it’s a treasure, after all. Telling you now would spoil the surprise."

"Yes," Li Hengsheng agreed, not feeling an immediate need.

"Though the list for the Ghostly Realm trial hasn’t been finalized, now that you’re in the Postnatal Realm, you’ll surely be selected. At that time, strive hard and protect your life, understood?"

"The Ghostly Realm trial is the best opportunity to earn merit points in Celestial Sea City. Seize this chance to avoid many detours later," Xu Muhai said sternly.

"Yes, I will heed Master’s teachings," Li Hengsheng said earnestly.

"Alright, you’ve just entered the Postnatal Realm; consolidate well. With each further cultivation, you’ll better ensure your survival during the trial," Xu Muhai spoke no more, as giving the box fulfilled his purpose.

Once Xu Muhai departed, Li Hengsheng returned to his courtyard, preparing to see what treasure lay inside the box in his study.

But before he could reach the study, Xu Kui hurriedly approached, "Young Master, a package has arrived for you from Changting Town."

"Alright."

Having previously written home twice without a reply from Li Changqing, the package’s arrival naturally spurred Li Hengsheng to first check its content.

Back in the study, he closed the door, opened the package.

Besides a letter, the package included a small bottle.

When he opened the envelope, a hundred thousand silver notes fell out straight away.

With Li Changqing always sending money with letters, Li Hengsheng had grown accustomed; lacking immediate financial needs, he put the banknote aside and focused on reading Li Changqing’s letter carefully.
