--- Chapter 25 ---
Near a small lake, we could see Yunlong and Bibi Dong hugging each other.
"Yunlong." Bibi Dong said while staring at her son, who is laying his head on her bosom.
"Mm... Mother." Yunlong responded as he lifted his head and stared at her.
'I know very well just how is he feeling right now.' Bibi Dong thought while feeling troubled in her heart.
'Bibi Dongxue knew this would happen, and she still does it so that I can have a time with Yunlong.' She added in her heart while released a sigh.
"Mother?" Yunlong's confused voice entered her ears, which makes her comes out from her thoughts.
"Ah, yeah... Follow me." Bibi Dong said while pulling him toward the small lake.
Yunlong is tilting his while staring at her back before hearing his system's monotonous voice inside of his head.
[You have fulfilled one of two requirements to upgrade Copy Wheel Eye: Sharingan (1/2)]
[First Requirement: Host need to experience the trauma of loss (1/1)]
[Second Requirement: Host need to reach spirit saint realm(0/1)]
'I see... My Mangekyou Sharingan awakening is different from normal Sharingan.' Yunlong thought while staring at the floating system panel beside his face.
'Trauma of loss, huh.' He added in his heart while remembering Bibi Dongxue, who disappeared in his hug.
"No... she's still here," Yunlong muttered as he shifted his gaze back at Bibi Dong, who is peeking a little to see him.
As they arrived at the small lake, Bibi Dong suddenly took out something from her spatial ring.
"Frying Pan?" Yunlong said while staring at the item in Bibi Dong's right hand.
"Mother will cook for you." Bibi Dong responded with a smile as she took out cooking ingredients and tools from her spatial ring, bringing a smile to Yunlong's face.
"Um, Sure..." Yunlong naturally responded, to which Bibi Dong responded with an enthusiastic nod.
Yunlong is thinking about something for a few seconds before comfortably sitting near the small lake and calmly observing his mother cooks for him.
'The supreme pontiff of spirit hall is cooking for me.' Yunlong suddenly thought with a funny smile on his face as his mood become a little bit better.
'Well, she's my mother.' He added while looking at Bibi Dong skillfully cutting ingredients with her cooking knife.
'Hmm... After Bibi Dongxue fused into me, not only I got her memories, but I also got her experiences in these six years.' Bibi Dong thought while carefully cutting spirit beast meat with the knife in her hand.
'Also, Bibi Dongxue trains herself, even though she knows that she can't increase her cultivation realm.' She added in her heart as a flash memory about Bibi Dongxue's training appeared in her head.
Bibi Dong is shaking her head as she focused back on her cooking. She's taking a pot from her spatial ring before filing it with the small lake's water.
After she lit up a fire, she then placed the pot over the fire using the rocks as a holder before placing vegetables, spirit beasts, and a few ingredients into a pot.
Bibi Dong roasts a few spices with the frying pans before adding them into the pot and putting the lid.
"Hot pot?" Yunlong said while looking at his mother cooking, which caught him off guard a little bit.
"Mm, you should eat something warm." Bibi Dong replied with a nod while calmly looking at the white steam, coming out from a small hole on the lid.
She then prepares a bowl and a spoon for Yunlong.
After doing small talk and waiting for a few minutes, Bibi Dong opened the lid, causing steam to gush out.
"Hmm, It's perfect." Bibi Dong muttered as she took a sip of the hot pot's broth, which is perfect according to her taste.
'Is it good?' Yunlong curiously thought as he is glancing at the hot pot, which released a fragrance aroma.
'Mm, this familiar aroma.' He added in his heart while shifting his gaze at Bibi Dong.
"Do you want to taste it?" She suggested with a smile on her face.
Looking at Yunlong's expression, she could tell that he's craving this hot pot.
She deliberately chose hot pot because this dish is one of Yunlong's favorite dishes based on Bibi Dongxue's review and observation over these six years.
Yunlong nodded his head while intently staring at the hot pot, which makes him remember Bibi Dongxue's promise when Chu Yunxi's cooked breakfast for them this morning.
"Here... Be careful. It's still hot" Bibi Dong's voice comes into his ears as he could feel warm steam touching his face.
"Hmm?" Yunlong snaps out of his thought while looking at the bowl of warm hotpot's broth with vegetables and meats in his mother's hand.
Yunlong took the bowl from his mother's hand and stare at it for a few seconds before taking a sip and taste a familiar flavor lingering in his mouth.
"It tastes the same..." Yunlong muttered while feeling a little bit overwhelmed in his heart.
"The spoon." Bibi Dong said while handing a soup spoon to him, which he gladly took.
Yunlong is slowly enjoying every taste of Bibi Dong's cooking, making her happy inside her heart as a smile formed on her beautiful face.
"Do you want more?" Bibi Dong asked as she could see the bowl in Yunlong's hand is already empty.
"Mm, I want more," Yunlong responded while giving the empty bowl to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong happily took the bowl and filled it before giving it again to Yunlong.
'I can sense it...' Yunlong thought while looking at Bibi Dong's movement, which is very familiar to him.
"Here." Bibi Dong said while giving him the bowl.
'Yeah, it's the same.' He added in his heart while taking the bowl.
Yunlong is giving Bibi Dong a genuine smile before naturally said, "Thank you, mother."
