Jiang Xun'er was deeply moved to see Jiang Xun being so sensible.
She hadn't expected that after she merely mentioned Jiang Yan's situation to her brother, he would take it so much to heart.
Having a family member who cares about one's happiness is truly a joyful thing.
Jiang Xun'er no longer refused, as Jiang Yan was indeed very short on Spirit Stones recently.
Perhaps his cultivation was about to recover; before this mission, Jiang Yan had already taken all his Spirit Stone savings. She wondered how much of his cultivation Brother Jiang Yan had recovered by now.
Jiang Xun'er planned to visit Brother Jiang Yan tomorrow and introduce her well-behaved and sensible younger brother to him.
After taking back the ten Spirit Stones, Jiang Xun'er told Jiang Xun about this matter.
Jiang Xun naturally had no objection and even said with longing, "Brother-in-law must be an incredibly formidable, fearless, resilient, and persevering peerless Genius."
"Only such a person can be worthy of my gentle, beautiful, and thrifty good older sister."
Hearing Jiang Xun praise her beloved, Jiang Xun'er also smiled happily and said, "Brother Jiang Yan indeed has excellent innate talent. When his Spiritual Root was tested, he was found to possess an Earth-Grade Fire Spiritual Root."
"He went from Qi Induction into the Body to Qi Training Middle Stage in one year, Qi Training Late Stage in two years, Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment in four years, and then cultivated to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage in just three years."
Jiang Xun'er spoke of Jiang Yan's affairs as if they were precious family possessions.
"In just ten years, he cultivated from nothing to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage. Brother Jiang Yan is truly a Genius."
"Although nearly four years ago, for unknown reasons, Brother Jiang Yan's cultivation regressed to Qi Training Stage Third Level."
"But I believe that as long as he perseveres in Cultivating, without discouragement or giving up, he will definitely return to Foundation Establishment, and even Break Through and rise stronger, elevating his cultivation to the level of a Core Formation Old Ancestor."
Jiang Xun listened and earnestly agreed.
"Yes, he definitely will."
Seeing her brother understand her so well, Jiang Xun'er felt even more strongly that becoming siblings with Jiang Xun was an incredibly correct decision.
After they finished eating, Jiang Xun learned to use a Spell for cleaning.
Then, the two went to the west room to clean the house together. As the saying goes, 'when men and women work together, the work is not tiring.' Jiang Xun'er now completely trusted Jiang Xun, and during their cleaning, she didn't mind occasional physical contact.
After all, he was her younger brother; a little contact between family members was perfectly normal.
After tidying the room, Jiang Xun'er bathed first. Then, after his sister returned to the east room, Jiang Xun comfortably took a shower.
Sleeping until dawn, Jiang Xun woke up to see his sister cooking.
He went over and saw such a lavish spread of dishes. Thinking his sister wouldn't eat so much for breakfast, he asked if it was for his brother-in-law.
Jiang Xun'er nodded. Jiang Xun said he also wanted to make a dish for his brother-in-law.
Seeing Jiang Xun's good impression of her Brother Jiang Yan, Jiang Xun'er happily taught Jiang Xun a dish hand-in-hand.
Jiang Xun studied seriously. As a Body Cultivator, his control over his body was very strong, and his comprehension was also good. He quickly produced a presentable finished dish.
The two placed the food into a small Storage Pouch and then quickly walked towards the small wooden house where Jiang Yan lived.
Along the way, Jiang Xun'er continued to speak, saying that Brother Jiang Yan had disappeared for over half a year, and upon his return, his cultivation had regressed. The Jiang Family's Elders had tried various methods to help Brother Jiang Yan recover his cultivation.
However, Jiang Yan's cultivation consistently remained at Qi Training Stage Third Level.
After two and a half years of trying, the Elders were unable to cure Brother Jiang Yan. It was at that time that a Genius with a Profound Spiritual Root appeared in a branch of the Jiang Family.
Brother Jiang Yan was stripped of his position as Jiang Family Young Lord at that time, and his former residence was occupied by the new Jiang Family Young Lord. Now he lived in a small wooden house at the edge of the Jiang Family's station.
Jiang Xun could tell that Jiang Xun'er was very upset when she said these things, so he immediately comforted her.
"Brother-in-law is a lucky man with a divine destiny, and I believe that heaven will definitely not mistreat anyone who works hard. As long as Brother-in-law persists in Cultivating, his lost cultivation will surely return."
"I hope so."
The two arrived in front of Jiang Yan's small wooden house. Jiang Xun'er tidied her appearance and knocked on the door.
No one answered.
After waiting for a while, Jiang Xun'er knocked again, but still no one responded.
Just as the two were discussing whether to continue waiting or go back first, Jiang Yan's voice suddenly came from a distance.
"Xun'er, you've come."
Jiang Yan held a bag of oranges in his hand. He was still dressed in luxurious clothes, showing no signs of destitution.
As Jiang Yan approached, the two smelled the strong scent of green oranges on him. Zhou Fan already knew what the old scoundrel had been up to, but he didn't expose him.
Instead, he took the initiative to greet him, saying, "Hello, Brother-in-law. My name is Jiang Xun, and I am Sister Jiang Xun'er's younger brother."
Jiang Yan sized up Jiang Xun, seeing that this pretty boy was not as tall as himself and was respectful in his attitude.
Having been out for two days and two nights, he was in a very good mood and immediately replied with a chuckle, "Oh, so it's a younger brother! Xun'er, when did you get a younger brother? You should have told me sooner."
"Younger brother, this is our first meeting, and I haven't prepared anything. So, I'll give you this bag of green oranges. Remember to let them sit for a couple of days until they ripen before eating them."
"Okay, thank you, Brother-in-law. You're so kind."
Jiang Xun obediently reached for the oranges, but Jiang Xun'er interrupted his movement.
"Jiang Yan, what have you been doing?"
Not calling him 'Brother Jiang Yan' indicated that Jiang Xun'er was in a bad mood.
Jiang Yan also realized this. He touched his nose and scratched his head, saying, "I went out for morning exercise, Xun'er. You know, even though we are Qi Refinement Cultivators, diligent exercise and having a strong physique are very important."
"You really went to exercise?" Jiang Xun'er looked suspicious.
Jiang Yan laughed heartily, "Of course I went to exercise, Xun'er. Why would I lie to you?"
After speaking, seeing that Jiang Xun'er still had doubts, Jiang Yan pulled out a tried-and-true excuse.
"Aren't I doing all this to recover my cultivation sooner so that you, Xun'er, can live a good life?"
He bluffed, "After my investigation, I found that my cultivation regression is very likely related to my physique not being strong enough."
"I guess my cultivation improved too quickly, and my body couldn't contain it, which is why the cultivation regression occurred."
Jiang Xun'er nodded, half-believing. Jiang Xun stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Sister, Brother-in-law, why don't we go inside first? I believe everything Brother-in-law said is true."
"Brother-in-law looks like an honest person, Sister. You should trust Brother-in-law."
Seeing his new brother-in-law being so sensible, Jiang Yan immediately walked quickly to the wooden house and opened the door, saying,
"My younger brother understands me better. Xun'er, come in quickly. We've known each other for so many years; when have I ever lied to you?"
Jiang Xun'er, having interacted with Zhou Fan these days, had already broken free from the influence of Jiang Yan's Son of Destiny aura.
She still harbored doubts, but seeing both her brother and Jiang Yan enter the house, Jiang Xun'er stepped inside.
