Chapter 20: Water Spiritual Root and Fire Spiritual Root"Honorable Princess, please let go of me!" The little boy in white robes was so crushed that he could barely speak clearly, trembling as he carried a little girl in red robes who was about the same size as him."No, no, wrong again, brother! Start over!" The little girl playfully patted her brother's shoulder. But she seemed to have forgotten her innate immense strength—her light pats were devastating to others."The most invincible, unparalleled, most honorable, most beautiful, most adorable princess in the universe, would you please lift your precious butt a little? Your most loyal knight, who would defend you with his life, is about to collapse." After saying such a long sentence, Xiao Mingji felt he was on the verge of collapse."That's more like it, silly brother. Remember this, and don't make the same mistake next time." The little girl nimbly flipped over and jumped off her brother's back. The little boy finally got a chance to catch his breath, collapsing exhausted on the ground to rest."Oh, right! The knights in the books are all strong and sturdy, just like Father. Weaklings can't be knights, my dear brother. I think you should keep practicing your swordsmanship! Come on, take this!" As she spoke, she drew a small wooden sword from the sheath at her waist."Wahhh, Dad, my sister is bullying me again~" His crying could rival that of Meng Jiangnü."Hua'er~" Xiao Jinqi shook his head helplessly. These twins seemed to have opposite personalities. The brother was a little crybaby, a creature made of tears, and his Spiritual Root happened to be the Water Spiritual Root—the waters of West Lake were all his tears. The sister, on the other hand, had a Fire Spiritual Root and was very domineering and aggressive, always striving to be first in everything and acting with fiery impatience.They had intervened many times, but it was never effective. They could only let nature take its course and allow the two to work things out themselves. Fearing that starting martial arts too early would affect their physical development, they had planned for the children to begin training only after turning five. They had thought martial arts would help burn off the little ones'—mainly Hua'er's—excessive energy. Little did they expect this child to have maxed out both her talent and combat prowess. Despite being only five years old, she could slap a wild boar to death with one strike. Her swordsmanship also progressed rapidly; the tiny girl could wield a wooden sword with such vigor and force. They had tested her and found she also possessed an Innate Sword Physique. Moreover, she had already reached the First Level of Qi Refining. The more skills she learned, the more spoiled and willful her temper became.Similarly, he also blamed himself. He shouldn't have read fairy tales to Xiao Chenhua, filling the little one's head with princesses and knights. He began to ponder how to guide the little one's thoughts to prevent them from straying.In Xiao Mingji's eyes, his sister was nothing but a demon! If he had to describe his sister using a Demonic Beast, Xiao Mingji felt the Vajra Bear was the most fitting. His sister was like a Vajra Bear, with an endless supply of bear-like energy every day. And her innate strength puzzled him greatly. After all, they were born together—why hadn't he inherited such perfect genes?From a very young age, Xiao Mingji had already learned how to use tears to gain sympathy. For example, whenever he cried, his fathers and brother would stop whatever they were doing to comfort him—except for his sister. Sometimes, there were unexpected rewards, like a sweet sugar figurine, a beautiful kite, or a mysterious kaleidoscope—all sorts of strange toys or treats.He was testing the limits of his father and dad, but it seemed they had no boundaries except for not allowing him to harm others. Whether it was emotional or material needs, they took great care of him. This made him feel as if he had thrown a punch into cotton.
