Chapter 2 Mother
When I returned home following my memory, it was already morning.
From afar, Xi Yu saw a woman lingering at the entrance of the cheap building; it was the original owner's mother, Xi Hua.
Xi Yu paused slightly before continuing on her way.
As soon as Xi Hua saw her daughter return, her anxious face immediately relaxed a little, and she rushed to her daughter and began to chatter.
"Xiaoyu! Why didn't you come home all night? What happened? Mom is so worried about you..."
Xi Yu moved her lips, but after a long while she still didn't call out "Mom". In her previous life, she was an orphan without parents, and now the sudden appearance of a 'mother' made her feel a little uncomfortable.
"Why are you so dirty? And so many scratches? Did something happen to you?!" Xi Hua gripped her hand tightly, her face pale, and her slightly trembling hand revealed her anxiety.
"I just accidentally fell and passed out on my way home. Nobody passes by there, so when I woke up it was already morning," Xi Yu said, making up an excuse with her eyes downcast.
"You child..." Xi Hua scolded, constantly touching her body to check if she was injured.
"Should we go to the hospital for a check-up?" Xi Hua was still worried, fearing that there might be some internal injury or something.
Xi Hua's caring gaze, despite his dark circles, warmed Xi Yu's heart; it was a kind of kinship she had never experienced before.
"I'm fine, I'll be fine after a good night's sleep." Xi Yu's tone was slightly stiff. After all, she had only just accepted the identity of this body and could not immediately act too close to Xi Hua.
After that, she locked herself in a small room. Xi Hua, worried about her, took a day off to stay home and take care of her.
Thanks to the original owner's introverted and gloomy personality, Xi Yu was able to stay quietly in the corner and organize her thoughts undisturbed.
She rubbed her forehead, sat cross-legged on the bed, and slowly regulated her breathing.
She discovered that this body was far too weak, with a physical strength of only the lowest level, probably unable to even break a wooden board!
Last night, she was able to quickly take down those two men by surprise attack and her familiarity with the human body's vital points. She knew exactly how to kill someone with a single blow.
Moreover, not only has her physical strength deteriorated, but even her proud 3S-level mental power has disappeared! This is the real reason for her furrowed brows.
In the future, a thousand years from now, humanity has developed mental power, an ability that everyone is born with. However, most people only possess the lowest level, F, while Xi Yu is the only grandmaster-level figure in that star system whose mental power has reached the 3S level.
Suddenly, she, a master-level figure, went from the highest level of mental strength, 3S, to the lowest level, F. The fact that she could still remain calm was thanks to her strong self-control.
She took a deep breath and slowly controlled her breathing to enter a meditative state.
In the future, humans created many special training methods to enhance mental strength. Among them, Xi Yu's 'Thousand Brocade Technique' was the best and was listed as a superior skill.
Xi Yu stayed locked in her room all day, cultivating without stepping out. Xi Hua was pacing anxiously outside, convinced that her daughter had suffered some injustice, which was why she was behaving so strangely. She didn't dare to barge into the room and upset her daughter, so she could only leave the three meals outside the door during mealtimes and gently knock on the door to remind her.
