Peak Of Glory

Lily gave a graceful salute to Emma. "Madam, I'm Lily, the servant that Young Master just bought."

Emma couldn't hide her laughter. "Jasper, i gave you money to buy something interesting. I didn't expect you to be interested in this girl."

Jasper's face turned red. "Mom, you're teasing me!"

"If you like this girl, take care of her. Don't misbehave before you enter adulthood."

"Okay, Mom."

Jasper widened his eyes as he realized that he fell into this trap. His face became even redder like a tomato.

Emma laughed with satisfaction as she successfully teased her son. The gentleness she usually displayed was gone like it never existed.

Lily remained silent beside Jasper even though her face was also flushed.

Emma stopped laughing. She let out a long sigh. "Alright. Since the production process is faster than usual, we can close early today."

Emma ordered her employees to close the shop. Afterward, she took Jasper and Lily to eat dumplings.

At the dumpling shop, they sat at the table closest to the window. Lily kept her head down and didn't say much.

"Jasper, you look very excited today."

Jasper nodded. "I'm already feeling healthier now. It seems like the pills the head of the family gave me also helped improve my condition."

Emma sighed softly. "Thank goodness. I'm glad to hear that. Our family's finances will get better, if you need anything, just say so."

Three bowls of meat dumplings were served. Jasper ate heartily while the two women by his side ate gracefully.

After finishing, they quickly went home. Emma escorted Lily to the room. This room used to be used by their servants.

"Lily, you can sleep in this room." Emma also gave him her clothes from when she was young. "These are my old clothes, they should fit you well."

"Thank you, Madam."

Emma nodded.

In another room, Jasper drank the miracle water and began to absorb its properties. His body was enveloped in excruciating but also pleasant pain.

The amount of miracle water Jasper drank was more than before. When he opened his eyes, it was already morning.

His body felt stronger than before. He was sure that in three days he would become a Body Tempering cultivator.

As usual, Jasper cleaned his body and changed clothes. There was already food that Emma had prepared for him as well as Lily.

The beautiful girl was watering the flowers in the garden. Her face looked happy while doing so.

Jasper sat down and started eating his breakfast. Emma also sat down and enjoyed her breakfast as she had to leave soon. When Emma noticed the changes in her son's body, she was surprised but also happy.

"Jasper, I feel like you're getting stronger every time I see you."

"I'm just practicing lightly because I feel healthy."

"If your condition remains like this, by adding more physical activities and taking the Body Tempering pill, in one month you can return to being a cultivator."

"Body Tempering pills are quite expensive, mom just save the money because I might need it in the future."

Emma nodded. "If you need more herbs, just tell me."

Emma was certain that her son's increased strength came from the herbs she bought a few days ago.

"Mom, you already said it yesterday, I won't feel bad."

Jasper finished his breakfast and went to the backyard to practice swordsmanship. Although he could not absorb Eksternal energy yet, but he kept trying to improve his physical strength.

Three days later.

"I did it!"

Jasper shouted happily. He had successfully become a stage 1 Body Tempering cultivator. It was an incredible accomplishment.

Emma rushed to open the door to her son's room when she heard Jasper's shout.

"Jasper, did something happen?"

Lily who was watering the flowers also left her work when she heard Jasper's shout.

"Mom, I did it!"

Emma sensed if her son had entered the Body Tempering stage, unable to hide her happiness. In the difficult past, she didn't think her son could become a cultivator again. She had tried all sorts of things, but they did not succeed in restoring her son's strength, instead making Jasper even weaker.

When she saw Jasper start to improve, Emma felt that her son's bad luck might be over soon. Seeing her son healthier and becoming a cultivator, her hope came true.

"Congratulations, my son. This is the beginning of your journey, you must not be complacent with your achievements on this path, it will hinder your journey."

"Thanks, Mom."

Lily who was standing behind Emma also congratulated him. "Congratulations, Young Master."

"Thanks, Lily."

"Since you are already a cultivator, you can go to the Martial Pavilion to look for suitable martial techniques."

Jasper nodded. "Mom, didn't I used to learn the savage tiger technique?"

Emma nodded. In the past Jasper had learned one of the best techniques the Anderson family had which was the fierce tiger technique. However, after her son's martial ability vanished, she returned the fierce tiger manual to the Martial Pavilion. "Two years ago I returned it to the Martial Pavilion."

"Then I'll go to the Martial Pavilion."

Although he had thousands of martial arts techniques in his memory, he couldn't just pull out any technique because it would make his family suspicious.

After breakfast, Jasper went to the Martial Pavilion.

Although it was called the Martial Pavilion, it was more like a library as there were hundreds of martial arts books inside.

Elder Kevin Anderson was the person in charge of the Martial Pavilion. He was kind to everyone so he hardly had any enemies in the Family.

"Jasper, can you become a cultivator again?"
