This thought affected An Yan’s mood a little, but he quickly adjusted it. There were some things he had to face, even though he was anxious. He couldn’t keep An Mu from cultivating just because of his worries.
The Cheng family already knew about it, so it would be unreasonable if he continued to hide it from his mother.
Having made up his mind, An Yan relaxed and went home after having a nice meal with the Cheng family.
His mother had already fallen asleep at the time he left. He couldn’t wake her up even if he was in a hurry to confess, so he planned to wait until she woke up in the morning.
Although a lot had happened that day, An Yan slept soundly and was woken up by his mother the next morning.
An Yan got up and cleaned up a bit. He went downstairs and found that the dining table was already filled with sumptuous food.
“Although there was a bit of a mishap, I still want to congratulate you on finishing the competition,” An Mu said with a smile. “You did very well in the competition. Mum is very proud of you.”
Due to her emotional turmoil yesterday, she had a quick bite to eat when she returned and then went to rest. But a night’s rest had stabilized her and she was in good shape, so she prepared food to celebrate.
Whether it was the successful conclusion of the competition or the fact that yesterday’s accident had ended without a hitch, it was time to celebrate.
“Thank you, Mum.” An Yan looked at his mother with a smile, but he was a little nervous. Should he confess now, or wait until after breakfast?
As An Yan was thinking of an answer to this question, An Mu over there had already noticed that his state was not right, and she asked worriedly, “What’s wrong with Yan Yan? Did you not sleep well last night? ”
An Yan made up his mind now that his mother had asked, “Mom, I have something I want to tell you.”
“What is it?” An Mu asked as she chucked a small dumpling onto the plate in front of An Yan.
An Yan looked down at the small dumpling on the plate, took a deep breath, and said, “It’s….I have recently researched a transformation potion that can complete the switch between human form and animal form. Humans get many benefits after converting to animal form, and I think you should try it too, mum. ”
Because of the guilt and worry, An Yan’s tone and expression were a little off when he said these words.
Fortunately, An Mu was so absorbed by the content of An Yan’s words that she did not notice this: “Converting into animal form? Is there such a thing? ”
An Yan should have felt relieved at An Mu’s reaction, but he felt a small loss for some reason.
It was better not to let An Mu know his true identity, but the more time they spent together and the more affectionate they were, the more An Yan couldn’t help but think. Would An Mu still treat him the same way if she knew his true identity?
Would she think he killed her son and then move out of the house?
An Yan’s thoughts were now contradictory. He was worried that An Mu would be sad, depressed, and even hate him and kick him out after she found out the truth.
At the same time, he felt a little sad that she didn’t know his true identity after having been together for so long.
He knew his thoughts were selfish, but he couldn’t help but wonder whom An Mu was smiling at every time he looked at her caring and smiling at him. Was she smiling at her son, or was she smiling at him?
“Yan Yan?” An Mu could not help but call out in confusion when An Yan remained silent.
An Yan then came back from his thoughts and nodded, “Yes, I’ve already tried it before and it went well, so there’s no problem. Why don’t you try it too, mum? ”
An Mu scolded him on hearing his answer, “How can you just use this kind of potion that hasn’t appeared before on yourself? Don’t do that next time! ”
Feeling An Mu’s heartfelt concern and recalling the thoughts he was having, An Yan couldn’t help but admonish himself. His previous thoughts were really too selfish and narrow-minded.
It was best for them to just get along, no matter whether An Mu knew the truth or not.
He could feel that she was happy with her life and work, and she was certainly happy with her son.
It was better to cherish the present and let the present happiness continue instead of having unnecessary worry. After all, An Mu’s happiness and joy were the most important things.
An Yan miraculously figured things out, and the depression that was previously blocking his heart instantly dissipated, making his whole body much lighter.
He happily went over to An Mu and took her arm, “I was so sure that I dared to try it on myself, and it turned out quite well, didn’t it? I happen to have several transformation potions here, mum, so you can try it later. ”
An Mu naturally had complete trust in her son, but she still felt amazed. She never thought that there were potions that could transform humans into animal forms.
At the same time, An Mu also felt that her son was so powerful to have even developed such a potion.
An Yan first took out a few transformation potions and then began to describe in detail the precautions to take when transforming.
For example, after taking the transformation potion, what it would feel like, how to deal with it, and how to communicate when you can’t speak normally after transforming, etc.
An Yan went through all these issues in detail, so that An Mu wouldn’t be uneasy after the transformation.
Infected by An Yan, An Mu also listened very carefully during the process.
After saying what he needed to say, An Yan handed a potion to his mother, “This potion is for changing from human to animal form. If you want to change back to human form, mom, just point to the other bottle; the potion in this bottle will have the reverse effect and will allow you to change back to human form. ”
An Mu nodded earnestly, and she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. “So, do I drink it now?”
An Yan noticed her nervousness, and he relaxed his tone even more as he said, “Don’t be nervous, mom. It’s just a matter of switching forms, and you can change back whenever you want to. ”
An Yan reassured her with a few more words before An Mu drank the potion.
A minute later, a small, cute canary appeared in front of An Yan.
An Yan carefully held the pretty canary in his palm and asked in a soft voice, “How are you feeling now? Is there anything uncomfortable? ”
The little canary shook its head. It fluttered its wings in novelty but did not fly up smoothly as An Mu had not yet adapted to her current physical state.
“First move around on the table to familiarize yourself with your current state, and then we can start cultivation,” An Yan hurriedly placed her on the table.
An Mu chirped in a pleasant voice, and then moved around on the table.
She was afraid that she would accidentally fly up and fall down due to poor control, so she didn’t flap her wings again. She just gathered her tiny wings and walked back and forth a few times.
After the novelty had passed and she had almost adjusted to her current state, An Mu chirped again, signaling to An Yan that they could continue.
An Yan then turned on his light brain and opened a document that Cheng Yi had put together earlier. It described how a person who had transformed could start the path of cultivation.
Grandpa Cheng had used this method, and it had been optimized based on his experience, so it should be easy to use.
However, although the method was complete and detailed, it was not a smooth ride for An Mu. It was her first time doing this kind of thing, and her previous use of spiritual power was completely inferior to that of Cheng Yi and Grandpa Cheng.
But even so, An Mu soon discovered acutely the immense benefits that the animal form brought.
So when she changed back to her human form, not only was her entire body refreshed, but even her eyes were extraordinarily bright.
“This is really….” An Mu deliberated for awhile and could only use the simplest words to describe her current thoughts, “It’s amazing!”
She never thought that such a magical thing could exist in this world!
The strange and novel feeling that humans could transform into animal forms was just too wonderful, not to mention all the benefits that humans could reap after transforming into animal forms.
An Yan was both happy and proud when he saw An Mu’s amazement: “This is just the beginning. You will know how good cultivation really is when you start it!”
“My Yan Yan is really wonderful!” An Mu praised her from the bottom of her heart, and then she couldn’t help but remind him, “But does anyone else know about this?”
An Yan said truthfully, “Cheng Yi knew about it a long time ago. Grandpa Cheng also knew about this and that’s how his body was repaired so quickly. Cheng Yang knows because I asked him to help me with experiments. In addition, I told the rest of the Cheng family about it last night.”
In other words, all the people in the Cheng family knew about it.
