The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 253: Dark Division Leader (3)_1
Chapter 253: Chapter 253: Dark Division Leader (3)_1
Xiang Yang had just finished speaking when the other members of The Dark Division also called out in unison, "Leader, thank you."
Situ Xin could hear the deep sentiment within that "thank you." She nodded slightly, acknowledging their gratitude. At this time, Situ Xin also realized that everyone had heard their conversation. In fact, she had not intended to keep it a secret from the others; if she had wanted to keep it from being heard, then no one would have heard even a single word. "Later, Xiang Yang will distribute the Marrow Cleansing Pills to you, one for each person. Uhm," Situ Xin paused before adding, "Although the reaction to the pill is quite strong, often sending you to the bathroom, its effects are excellent. It will greatly benefit your future practice of Ancient Martial Arts." Situ Xin still explained the side effects of taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill, so as to prevent them from mistakenly thinking they had eaten something that upset their stomachs.
Once Xiang Yang and Situ Muli had distributed the Marrow Cleansing Pills, Situ Xin began assigning members of The Dark Division to different types of Ancient Martial Arts based on the information she had obtained using her Divine Sense, and what suited each individual best.
After she had categorized everyone, Situ Xin took out the transcripts of Ancient Martial Arts cultivation techniques from her bag—in reality, from her spatial storage—which she had copied from the jade token in her mind previously. Worried about potential special circumstances, she had deliberately transcribed several different kinds. Fortunately, there were no bizarrely unique types among The Dark Division’s members.
The members of The Dark Division, each holding a Marrow Cleansing Pill and a technique appropriate to them, were visibly excited and eager, almost desperate to start practicing and see the results.
Situ Xin watched the expressions on their faces, taking it all in. Her purpose for this visit to The Dark Division was now fulfilled. With a grand wave of her hand, she announced their dismissal. However, before disbanding, she reminded them, "Before practicing martial arts, you must take the Marrow Cleansing Pill first. Also, when cultivating, let it happen naturally and don’t rush things, or you risk deviation."
After sorting out these matters, Situ Xin prepared to head home, holding Baibai. When she left, she did not take Situ Muli with her; instead, she left him behind.
While Situ Xin had yet to ask Situ Muli about his former organization, she knew that the training he had undergone there was certainly more advanced and extensive than what The Dark Division currently offered. Hence, Situ Xin left Situ Muli to discuss and bond with Xiang Yang.
The training of The Dark Division was handed over to Xiang Yang and Situ Muli by Situ Xin. She only intervened when someone encountered a problem during their practice, to provide proper guidance.
Every morning, Situ Muli would take Situ Xin’s private car to The Dark Division, and he would return in the evening. Sometimes, seeing him get up early to rush there, Situ Xin considered whether to let Situ Muli move to The Dark Division permanently to avoid the daily commute.
But later, after carefully observing Situ Muli’s mood whenever he returned, and sensing no sign of unwillingness but rather a lift in spirits when greeted by the family as if welcoming a family member, "Mu Li is back," she decided against suggesting the move. If he didn’t mind the daily back and forth, then she had no objections.
Leaving Situ Muli behind served two purposes for Situ Xin. One was their similarly unusual experiences, and the other was her desire to learn about his previous organization.
However, since returning from Xiangjiang, Situ Xin had not found the right time to have a proper conversation with Situ Muli. Now, he was busy with matters of The Dark Division and his training.
Situ Xin decided to temporarily set this matter aside, thinking to wait for the right opportunity.
After dealing with The Dark Division’s affairs, Situ Xin began to truly enjoy her summer vacation. She felt this was the life she had always longed for.
Now, if she wasn’t eating, she was sleeping; after waking up, she would continue eating or spend time reading and cultivating in her space. Of course, she still made sure to spend some time with her family each day. And sure enough, Loo Bun, clung to Situ Xin.
Whenever Situ Xin was around, Loo Bun had to be by her side, or else he would put on a show of tears. With his surprisingly powerful lungs, his cries could be heard not just by the immediate neighbors but probably throughout the nearby houses in the military compound.
But as long as Loo Bun was by Situ Xin’s side, there was no need to entertain him specially; he kept himself busy, alternating between stretching his little legs and sucking on his hands. Moreover, every time Situ Xin looked at him, he would give her a sweet smile.
Within the entire Loo Family and even the Situ Family, it was only Situ Xin who received such special treatment from Loo Bun. Others might play with him, but they were only rewarded with his attention when he was in a good mood; if not, he wouldn’t give them the time of day. Now Loo Bun’s mother, Situ Xin’s aunt by marriage, often complained about this with a tinge of jealousy in front of everyone else.
Situ Xin had been staying at home for several days, and today, she got up earlier than usual, before lunchtime. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
When Old Deng came to the Situ Family’s home, he just happened to catch Situ Xin as she was getting out of bed. Seated on the downstairs couch, he was chatting with Old Master Situ when he glanced up and saw Situ Xin rubbing her sleepy eyes and coming downstairs.
Old Deng turned to Old Master Situ and asked, "Situ, is that girl just getting up now?"
Old Master Situ also spotted Situ Xin and looked at her dotingly as she stumbled out of bed, replying, "Yes, our baby’s favorite hobby is sleeping, and today, she actually got up early. I suspect her grandma went up and woke her for breakfast."
After hearing Old Master Situ’s comment, Old Deng raised his hand to check his watch, "9:30." Looking up at Situ Xin, who still hadn’t fully woken up and didn’t notice them, he said in resignation to Old Master Situ, "It’s already half-past nine, you know it’s not good for her to always sleep this late, Situ. Don’t you discipline this girl?"
