Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 179: A Sense of Responsibility

"I am fine grandpa. I see that you have stabilized your cultivation. Dad, second grandpa, you guys are more powerful now." Chu Miao said jokingly with a smile.

"Not as powerful as Little Bunny." Butler Cheng replied with a laugh.

He was glad to have stayed with this family. They are more important to him than any blood relationship he had ever had.

"Grandpa is already grateful that he can reach the fifth level of Qi refinement with his old bones. I might not be able to reach the golden core, but I am sure that I will get to the foundation establishment in my lifetime." Grandpa Chu said with a happy laugh.

To him, living those extra years was a bonus and he would be satisfied. Not many people could get to live for more than two hundred years with their descendants.

"Don’t say that grandpa. You still have over a hundred years to live if you establish your foundation. We can use that for a hundred years to cultivate and I am sure you will reach the golden core. Then you will have another five hundred years.

So, don’t worry, we have a long way to go and resources to boost us in our cultivation journey." Chu Miao encouraged her grandfather because she didn’t want him to have the mentality of living on bonus years.

With such a mentality, he will get lazy in cultivation and also become careless when outside. Thinking that he had already lived for too long. She couldn’t wait for her grandfather to live for a thousand years, how could she let him have a short goal of two hundred years? That was unacceptable.

"Let’s go outside. Mom is making a rabbit and pheasant big brother and I caught in the forest across the stream. It’s a low-level demon beast, but its meat is nutritious and has spiritual energy."

Chu Miao informed them as she took them out of the soul ring.

Even though the three men hadn’t been gone for too long by the standards of the time in the outside world, for those who had been in the space ring, they had been away for almost a month.

Walking to the window and seeing water almost flooding the entire second floor of their building, the old men became anxious.

"How is it that rain water can rise so high? What about the people on the first and second floors? What happened to them?" Grandpa Chu was still a general with a sense of responsibility. He couldn’t just watch people die if he could help.

"Don’t worry grandpa, the people in the first and second floor moved to the empty apartments on the higher floors." Chu Miao had heard of this when she was examining that little boy with a zombie virus.

The gossiping women among the onlookers were talking about how now people could just occupy houses without spending a penny.

It was at that time she found out that those with flooded houses had moved to the higher floors. One of the families on the second floor had no choice but to move to an apartment where the owner had suffered from heat stroke, which later turned into a heart attack and died.

Now, people couldn’t even care about someone having died in the house. If it were before, the apartment would have been treated like a haunted house and no one would want it.

But now it was a refuge for those with nowhere to go. It was better to stay in a house where someone had died than to drown and die.

When grandpa Chu heard that they had settled somewhere safe, he heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that his concern was misplaced with the situation now being survival of the fittest as people were using the law of the jungle.

Nonetheless, his first instinct is to protect. That was the oath he took.

"Everyone, sit down. Let’s have lunch together. Sweetheart, go call Xiao Xuan. Ask him to come have lunch with us. Since he has started to cultivate, eating the demon beast meat will be beneficial for him." Mother Chu stood up to set the table and also instructed Chu Miao to bring her boyfriend for lunch.

Chu Miao thought to herself, ’I had already told him to meet tomorrow. Well, I am not the one calling him now.’ After thinking about it like that, she teleported and appeared outside Ye Xuan’s apartment again.

Before she could knock, the door opened.

"Did you forget something?" Ye Xuan asked as he stood to one side so that she could walk in.

Chu Miao walked inside and replied to him at the same time, "Mom asked me to come get you for lunch. She made something that is beneficial for cultivation, so she said if you eat it, it will benefit you too." She passed the message the same way it was given.

Ye Xuan smiled when he heard that. His future mother-in-law was very considerate. Trying to help him enhance his cultivation was a blessing.

"Okay, let me get something then we can go." Ye Xuan said as he went into the kitchen.

Chu Miao didn’t treat herself as a guest and invited herself on to the sofa in the living room and sat down to wait.

Three minutes later, Ye Xuan walked out of the kitchen with a package in hand. Looking at him with the package, Chu Miao thought of the other gift he left the last time that her grandfather cherished so much.

"You don’t have to bring gifts every time you visit. It feels like you are treating yourself as a stranger." Chu Miao advised because she didn’t want him taking everything good for her family. What about him then?

"I won’t treat myself as a stranger. It’s just that, I have several types of tea my grandfather used to like to drink. I don’t drink tea that much and I thought that grandpa Chu would like it." Ye Xuan replied with a chuckle when he heard the faint dissatisfaction in Chu Miao’s voice.

"Okay then. Let’s go. Are you okay with teleporting?" Chu Miao asked before deciding to teleport.
