Chapter 74: Chapter 64 What, a relative is coming?_1
“Auntie, Brother Ming can now use special abilities, he thinks…”
Zhang Yuan explained with a smile, leaving Liu Fang looking surprised and pondering about how unfamiliar the world had become.
“…”
At ten in the morning, Chen Li finally hurriedly came down from the third floor, feeling slightly embarrassed for being late. Bestowing a hug to her mother’s dearest Yinyin, she ate the meal left for her, then followed Liu Fang’s urging to practice the Eight Sections Brocade.
After the exercise, she was surprised to find so many fish in the kitchen, and hurriedly helped her mother and Zhang Yuan to process the fish for pickling.
It took the three of them half an hour to deal with the fish and shrimp, after that, they went out together to clean the yard and look after the alpacas and swans.
“…”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
While the women were busy, Li Ming was in the living room on the first floor, constantly practicing his sword drawing.
With every draw, the technique became increasingly proficient in his hands, his sword drawing becoming faster and more precise.
He started practicing at half past eight, almost every single action increased his proficiency level, which in turn increased the level of his sword-drawing skills.
The increased stamina from the “Tai Chi 24 forms”, with the addition of minor achievements gained from prior skills, allowed him to swing a sword at full strength hundreds of times without rest.
By noon, when the women who were busy processing the catch and making dry vegetables were ready to make meals, Li Ming asked Zhang Yuan to prepare the milk powder. Seeing her nod, he continued to practice his swordsmanship.
It was not until ten minutes later that he abruptly stopped.
“Sword-Drawing (Minor proficiency 0%)”
A rush of strength poured into him, strengthening his right hand holding the sword and his shoulders and waist.
At the same time, feelings of hunger arose from his stomach.
“Gurgle~”
Li Ming’s expression changed, quickly getting up and running to the second floor. He saw several bowls of prepared milk powder on the table and began to drink immediately.
“Glug…”
Mouthful after mouthful of milk powder was dissolved into pure energy, continually replenishing the nutrients his body was missing.
Li Ming drank as Zhang Yuan prepared more milk powder, and in short order under Yinyin’s astonished gaze, he had consumed an entire box of milk powder.
“Phew~”
Li Ming let out a sigh of relief, moving around a bit, and immediately felt much stronger.
At the same time…an unusual feeling started to rise from his heart.
As if…he could thrust a spear or stick a sword at a whole new level?
He cautiously moved around again, feeling the power within his body…indeed there seemed to be a certain stepwise leap compared to his previous physical strength.
But it still seemed a bit lacking.
“If I make another minor break, the increase in physical strength will certainly lead to a skill breakthrough!”
Li Ming tried to draw out his Longquan sword, and cautiously thrust it into the empty space of the living room with all his strength.
“Whoo…”
A clear sword chirp echoed in the air, its power startling Zhang Yuan and Chen Li who were behind him.
But Li Ming just shook his head in disappointment.
“Although this sword now barely reaches the limit of the power that a minor proficient stab can mobilize, it is still a bit short from breaking through this stage,” he said.
A skill with minor proficiency already has Li Ming’s strength falling behind. In simple terms, his sword skill with minor proficiency can exert greater power, but because his physical strength is limited, the power of the skills at this level is not enough to display its true maximum power.
So Li Ming’s skills have been stuck at “minor proficiency”, and it’s hard to break through.
If his strength continues to increase to the limit of skills at the “minor proficiency” level, allowing him to reach the maximum output of skills at this level, then the proficiency of his skills will increase.
Li Ming knew that minor proficiency was a hurdle.
“That’s just right, I still have the ‘Piercing Sword’ move.”
Li Ming thrust his longsword forward violently, then in the next moment withdrew it, and suddenly thrust it in the opposite direction.
“Whoosh…”
With a sword chirp, the longsword pierced behind him.
“Piercing Sword proficiency +1”
Seeing the proficiency level floating in front of him, a hint of a smile flickered at the corner of Li Ming’s mouth. Then he put away his longsword, went to the bathroom, took the towel handed over by Zhang Yuan and washed up. Afterwards, he comfortably sat in the dining room waiting for the meal.
For nearly a month they had made do with food, and everyone had not eaten a good meal for a long time. Now, the fish stew was considered a good meal and everyone’s expressions were much brighter. Even Yinyin clutched her small spoon impatiently.
Sitting at the dining table, Li Ming pondered what a skill at ‘Minor proficiency’ level would look like after another breakthrough…
After chat for a while, the meal was quickly prepared. Just as Zhang Yuan was about to get up to greet the steaming fish soup, she suddenly went pale as she stood up.
“What’s wrong?”
Li Ming immediately noticed the changes in Zhang Yuan and could not help but reach out to support her, asking anxiously.
“I think my period came.”
Zhang Yuan winced, bending over uncomfortably as she spoke.
“Your period?”
Li Ming was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, “Does it hurt? Do you want me to take you to bed and rest right now?”
“It hurts a little. Let’s eat first, it’s fine. I can rest after eating.”
Zhang Yuan shook her head and replied, biting her lip. Seeing her in pain, Chen Li immediately got up to uncover the pot of fish soup, serving her a big bowl of it and also some fish to eat.
“Thank you.”
Zhang Yuan responded in a low voice, then took a small bite of the food.
Seeing that she wasn’t feeling too bad, Li Ming felt relieved. He then served himself some fish soup and ate, occasionally checking on Zhang Yuan’s condition.
After lunch, Chen Li accompanied Li Ming to the third floor. When Li Ming sent Zhang Yuan to the third floor, Chen Li stayed to take care of her. However, before Li Ming could hold her to help her practice, he noticed that Chen Li was also in discomfort.
“I think my period has come too…”
Chen Li’s face rapidly paled as she spoke, and she squatted down.
Your period too?!
Looking at the somewhat pale Chen Li, Li Ming was stunned, but swiftly helped her to the bathroom.
Afterwards, standing by the door, he poured a cup of water for Zhang Yuan, waited a while, then took Chen Li from the bathroom and set her down on the bed to rest.
Liu Fang came up with a bowl of brown sugar water. She wanted to say something with a smile, but was taken aback when she saw her daughter was also curled up in bed.

“Did Lily also get her period?”
Liu Fang couldn’t help but ask. Seeing Li Ming and Chen Li both nod, she hurriedly put down the brown sugar water she was holding: “This bowl is for Xiao Yuan. Let her drink it first, I’ll go and make another bowl for Lily.”
“Okay, Auntie, take your time.”
Li Ming responded politely, then upon seeing that Zhang Yuan was feeling very unwell, regretfully picked up the brown sugar water and spoon-fed it to her.
“Here, open your mouth, loosen your teeth, right…”
