Twin Swords Emerge, Huang Rong and Huang Rou
When Feng Heng saw Su Yu staring blankly, she smiled and said, "Shao Tian, you must take good care of your younger sisters from now on."
Su Yu nodded stiffly. Huang Laoxie rubbed Su Yu’s head and said, "What’s wrong with you, kid? Lost your soul?"
Su Yu gave a bitter laugh and asked, "Father, Mother, what are my two younger sisters called?"
Feng Heng looked at Huang Laoxie and said, "Husband, you should name them."
Huang Laoxie nodded. "My original plan was to name a boy Huang Yun and a girl Huang Rong. I never expected two girls, though. The elder daughter will be called Huang Rong, and the younger daughter… will be called Huang Rou."
Su Yu looked at the two infants and murmured, "Huang Rong and Huang Rou…"
Clearly, the one who had suddenly appeared was the younger daughter, Huang Rou. And because of Huang Rou, both girls had suddenly begun giving off the aura of Innate Spiritual Treasures. Su Yu could not figure out what was going on. Innate Spiritual Treasures could reincarnate as humans, but he had never heard of them being able to be reborn through pregnancy!
There seemed to be three Innate Spiritual Treasures that had yet to be born. Su Yu grew excited again. Could he gain two of them at once this time? That would be incredible.
Seeing Su Yu so distracted, Feng Heng said, "Shao Tian, are you too tired? If you are, go back and sleep. You can come see your two younger sisters tomorrow morning."
Su Yu nodded. "Mother, I’ll go sleep first." With that, he left the room.
After returning to his room, Su Yu suddenly remembered Ya Er inside him. He immediately asked, "Ya Er, are you there? What exactly is going on with Huang Rong and Huang Rou? Innate Spiritual Treasures can be reborn through pregnancy?"
Ya Er’s voice sounded as she explained, "Master, Innate Spiritual Treasures can choose to be reborn through pregnancy."
A smile appeared on Su Yu’s face. "Then did I encounter two Innate Spiritual Treasures at once?"
"No, Master. This Innate Spiritual Treasure is special. It is called the Twin Swords. It consists of two swords that can merge into one, which is why it has two bodies. Huang Rong and Huang Rou are now the Twin Swords. Their hearts are connected, and they understand each other perfectly. When they cultivate together, their speed will increase severalfold. When they fight together, their combat strength will also increase severalfold."
Su Yu nodded in understanding. "I see. All right, then. Nothing else."
After saying that, Su Yu went to sleep.
Early the next morning, Su Yu ran to Feng Heng’s room. Feng Heng was still asleep, while Huang Rong and Huang Rou lay in a small crib beside her bed. Huang Rong was wrapped in yellow cloth, while Huang Rou was wrapped in white cloth. Huang Laoxie and Feng Heng were afraid of mixing the two up.
After all, as twins, they looked extremely alike. But since Su Yu knew that their true forms were the Twin Swords, he understood that they were the only pair of completely identical twins in the world. Their height, every part of their bodies, everything was exactly the same. Even the number of hairs on their heads was identical.
Su Yu had been rather surprised when he first learned this, but he was not afraid of being unable to tell them apart, because their auras were different. The Twin Swords’ auras were completely opposite.
For example, although the Huang Rong and Huang Rou before him were still infants, Su Yu felt that he could already tell what their personalities would be like in the future.
Huang Rong had her large eyes wide open as she looked around the room. Her hands and feet were restless as well, all sprawled over Huang Rou.
Huang Rou, meanwhile, remained completely still and looked at Su Yu pitifully, leaving him unsure whether to laugh or cry. Innate Spiritual Treasures truly were different from ordinary people. Although they had just been born, neither of them could compare to an ordinary infant.
Su Yu reached out and moved Huang Rong’s hands and feet away from Huang Rou. The next moment, Huang Rong’s little face actually showed an expression of anger, and her big eyes glared fiercely at Su Yu.
Seeing Huang Rong’s angry little face, Su Yu found her unbearably adorable. "You little girl, I’m afraid you’ll grow up even smarter, livelier, and more mischievous than in the original story. Don’t turn into a little devil by then."
As Su Yu spoke, Feng Heng suddenly woke up. Seeing Su Yu in front of Huang Rong and Huang Rou, she smiled and said, "Shao Tian, it seems you really like your two younger sisters."
Su Yu smiled. "Of course. No matter what, they’re my younger sisters."
Feng Heng smiled and said, "Then as their older brother, you must take good care of them in the future."
"Mother, don’t worry. I’m already at the Xiantian Peak. I’m only one step away from entering the Grandmaster realm. When that happens, who would dare bully my younger sisters?" Su Yu replied.
Feng Heng smiled and nodded. Neither she nor Huang Laoxie had ever treated Su Yu as a child, because he was far too sensible. On top of that, his strength was simply monstrous.
In the entire martial world, Su Yu was probably the only one currently in the Xiantian realm. Huang Laoxie and Hong Qigong were only at the Peak of Perfection, and they had been stuck there for several years.
After breakfast, Su Yu returned to Feng Heng’s room. He held the Taigu Yiyin Qin, which was even a little taller than himself, and began playing the Origin Nurturing Heart Calming Melody for Feng Heng, Huang Rong, and Huang Rou.
Playing the Origin Nurturing Heart Calming Melody at this time was beneficial to all three of them. Feng Heng could recover more quickly, while Huang Rong and Huang Rou’s constitutions and talents could begin to improve. After all, Su Yu’s mastery of the qin had already reached a level capable of affecting rulers, so it was useful even on Innate Spiritual Treasures.
However, the prerequisite was using a treasure like the Taigu Yiyin Qin. If he were still using the Jade Flute from before, it would have no effect on Huang Rong and Huang Rou.
Feng Heng was also somewhat surprised as she watched Su Yu play the guqin. After all, it was her first time seeing him play the guqin, and he was even playing the Origin Nurturing Heart Calming Melody. From the looks of it, Su Yu seemed even more skilled at playing the guqin than at playing the flute.
Though surprised, Feng Heng did not ask anything. Both she and Huang Laoxie knew that Su Yu had always possessed secrets they did not know about. Although they wanted to know, they had never asked.
When the piece ended, Su Yu saw Huang Rou staring at him with shining eyes, while Huang Rong looked utterly uninterested as she narrowed her eyes and yawned. At that moment, Su Yu realized Huang Rong looked exactly like his former ordinary self during Chinese class.
"Uh, didn’t the original story say Huang Rong was talented in all arts, skilled in the qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting? Why does she look like this now…" Su Yu felt his head grow enormous.
Feng Heng also smiled. "It seems Rou Er really likes hearing you play, Shao Tian. When Rou Er grows up, you must teach her to play the qin."
Su Yu smiled. "I’ll teach her, definitely. I won’t just teach little Rou Er. I’ll teach little Rong as well."
Feng Heng smiled faintly. "All right. From now on, Rou Er and Rong Er will be entrusted to you."
