The next few years were excellent progress for the family, not only the parents were getting stronger at a high pace but their foundation was also becoming very firm with their basics becoming very firm. And because they were focusing on their basics the speed of their cultivation also was controlled and there were no eyes raised at the improvement as there is no way to know a person's skill just by looking at his cultivation level.
It was decided by both the parents that at the age of 6 or 7 the will, they ask if Star or Leo decides to cultivate it will be their own decision and not under pressure as there was no one they had to compete with and both will be respected for their choices. Though this was only known to the parents.
As this was going on Leo's life growing up was very luxurious and Star's life also got more carefree but as she had known what was it like before her personality did not change, on the other hand as Leo already had lived a life he personality was already set, but due to losing all his laziness and lazy habits he got a lot more active and was a continuous headache to the parents and the 2 girls who were in charge of his care. And he did this roaming the complete home the backyard and all the edges of the house to every last corner. what he actually doing was setting an invisible barrier that would protect the whole family from sudden attack or shockwave from a fight of a celestial level and constantly changing its position so it is not traced back to him even after using time reversal.
Due to the visualization painting given to the family, their bodies were a lot more purified than most other cultivators of the same level. What the most unique thing about the paintings was that it was a peak World God painting under the disguise of an Elder God level which consists of, the Dragon and the Pheonix dancing or fighting around and the release a natural charm of a Diety. These paintings were on par with the Nuwa painting and just was under disguise so not even a true god could tell the difference and the viewer got the complete benefits of the visualization technique.
As the temperament of the whole family got a lot calm and they were a lot more immersive in their training.
Years went by and as Leo got out of the house the more surprised he got at the fascinating new world, the kids which most novels or manga described as the arrogant noble young master type were no were to be found and also there was no hero saving the beauty or poor man to get in fights was not saw or heard by him. And when researched by Leo he found that those kids who would be acting were not in town and were in the main clan training were their arrogance was beaten out of them in training or those who were powerful enough went to the provincial capital to further progress in their own cultivation.
The cities' mortals were protected from the cultivators as a law from the Emporer was given ages ago. And the military was strong enough to suppress any kind of unrest in the locals. It was also the courtesy of the Lin clan as they were not as most ruling clans described in most books or novels, they had ruled the 5 thunder cities with a very generous and lawfull order for the last 10000 years that did not mean that they were a soft clan, they had a mid wanxiang adept Patriarch who was young and was assigned in the last 20-30 years and had a long life ahead and also had hopes to progress further. It was rumored that their Ancestor was dead who was also at the same stage of the patriarch, which Leo knew was false as he was a peak wanxiang adept and was on the last 100 years of his life span with the help of Dream.
As the time came for the start of the training of Star she opted for going through the double cultivating body and the qi so they first asked which she was going to cultivate she chose Crimsonbright Nine Heavens Diagram which was the best but also the hardest to cultivate.
The weapon chosen by Star was a sword, and qi cultivation was a yin/water type cultivation technique. The training was Quiet boring to watch but the result was that the time she got for her self was down to 1/2 an hour. Some times when she was giving up Leo would shout "so strong" or "wow sis" and acted in awe of his elder sister so she would train to her hardest to improve and slowly fell in love with the sword which was completely different from the spear or the blade(a type of saber) which her parent used but was used by her grandfather.
Only after a few weeks, she got the sun in one hand and the moon on the other which surprised the whole elders in the family. The progress of Star got to the point where Stone and Bluegrass were thinking that she will surpass them after some time and were genuinely happy for their child as they had an inheritance but thein daughter got this far on her own talent.
After training for a year she looked like a 12-13-year-old girl and was only 8-year-old and like most kids in this world, she also matured a lot. Leo had Dream modify Hairclip of Star to protection the treasure of True god-level which would teleport her to a safe location if attacked by an Elder God or higher level. Though he knew that was a bit overkill.
Leo's maid whom he called 2nd and 3rd sister Lisa and Merry was also training in sword and knifes as they wanted to protect the little Leo and when he gets stronger they would not get left behind by him, though Leo had no intention of leaving them, this made his heart a little warm thinking that someone would be with him for eternity by their own choice. though he knew there was a large possibility of them leaving him if they got settled midway. But what he appreciated more was the thought of their willingness at the moment.
Diya and Emmy were also the same for Star as they had watched her grow up from 3 years old and Star also treated them with respect and care.
