Chapter 5 False Truth
Liu Ying hugged her son again, as she let out a low cry. "Unbelievable! You awakened an incredible innate ability, Tian'er!"
Xia Tian nodded with a smile, he himself was aware that his innate ability was truly extraordinary, even the old him didn't have the innate ability as good as he did now. "En, my innate abilities are incredible, Mom. But still it's meaningless if I can't cultivate, so I want to recover my spiritual root first."
"Recovering your spiritual root?" Liu Ying looked at her son in bewilderment, because she had only recently heard such an absurd thing, she had never heard before that spiritual roots that had been crippled could be restored. "What are you saying, Tian'er? How are you going to recover your spiritual root? Your mother and grandfather have invited many alchemists and physicians before, but none of them have been able to restore your spiritual root."
Xia Tian just smiled at her, then he took the paper on the table that listed the five ingredients he needed, he had also given a description of how to process the ingredients. Then he handed the list of ingredients to Liu Ying, as he said. "Here's a list of the five ingredients I need, and I've also written down every step of the way to prepare the five into a liquid so that their effects don't go to waste. And with your alchemy abilities, I'm sure it won't be a problem for you to prepare them, Mom."
Liu Ying received the paper, then read the ingredients one by one, before long she frowned, and she asked seriously. "How did you know all this, Tian'er? And are you sure that it can restore your spiritual root? Moreover, I've never seen you study alchemy before, so how did you come up with the idea of using these five ingredients?"
Xia Tian then pulled Liu Ying to sit in front of him, and he took a deep breath before explaining to her, because what he was about to say would not be easily accepted by a mortal like her. "Actually, there's one more thing I want to tell you, Mom. And the thing I'm about to tell you is the true blessing of my accident in the forest."

"Hmm? Tell me quickly, Tian'er. Don't make your mother curious." Liu Ying urged him, she really couldn't wait to know the answer, especially seeing her son's expression so serious, as she had not seen her son that serious in a long time.
Xia Tian nodded, and he started to explain. "Do you believe in reincarnation, Mom?"
"Reincarnation? Why do you ask that?" Liu Ying asked confusedly, she herself didn't know whether to believe in reincarnation or not, as she only knew about reincarnation from records, but no one knew the truth about reincarnation.
"Reincarnation is real, Mom. I am one of them, my past name was Long Tian-"
"Huh!?" Liu Ying gasped in shock as soon as she heard that, then she pressed her palm against her son's forehead, and she asked anxiously. "Did you hit your head so hard, Son? That you're rambling weird like this."
Xia Tian then he held his mother's hands. "I'm serious, Mom. Reincarnation is real, my past name was Long Tian, and I've lived thousands of years before. In the past, I mastered many things, and one of them was alchemy."
Liu Ying was dumbfounded, she was speechless, as she continued to stare at her son strangely. She tried to digest her son's words, but her mind still couldn't accept it, and she subconsciously muttered to herself. "What should I do now? It seems my son's head was badly injured, and he's gone crazy now."
[Hahaha! This is really funny, this is the first time I've heard someone call you crazy, Master.] Alice said laughing loudly at Liu Ying's muttering.
Xia Tian smiled bitterly, he himself was aware that Liu Ying must have a hard time accepting things like reincarnation, but he had no other choice, because he couldn't possibly tell her that her son was dead, and now he had taken over his body. "I'm really not crazy, Mom. I'm telling you the truth, and I'll prove it to you later after I recover my spiritual root, because right now I'm still powerless to prove it to you."
"Sigh, fine!" Liu Ying sighed softly, then she said sternly. "You have to prove it to me later, because I still don't believe in reincarnation, and I really hope that my son isn't crazy either."
"Don't worry, Mom." Xia Tian nodded, and Liu Ying immediately left his room to look for the five ingredients her son needed, after which he called Mo Xiaoqi. "Come in, Little Qi."
Mo Xiaoqi rushed in, and she timidly asked. "What... What can I do for you, Young Master?"
'Sigh, that idiot Xia Tian! He made a girl as beautiful as her so scared of him.' Xia Tian inwardly muttered with a sigh, then he said softly. "Please prepare my bathwater, Little Qi."
Hearing that, Mo Xiaoqi didn't leave immediately, but instead looked at Xia Tian dumbfoundedly, as she thought. 'Was Young Master's head badly injured in the previous accident? Why is he being so polite and gentle? Usually he will order me by yelling.'
Seeing Mo Xiaoqi dumbfounded, Xia Tian walked up to her, then he patted and rubbed her head gently, as he said with a smile. "I know that I used to treat you badly, Little Qi. But I promise you, from now onwards I will never treat you badly again."
Mo Xiaoqi blushed, although she was still confused by her Young Master's attitude, but in her heart she was really happy to see her Young Master's change. "I... I will prepare your bath water immediately, Yong Master."
Xia Tian was amused to see Mo Xiaoqi running really fast like a rabbit, and he decided to practice lightly while waiting for Mo Xiaoqi to prepare his bath water. He did stretching, then squat jumps, and he also did push ups a few times.
