Chapter 550: Wine Night
Jack, Vivi, and Ebele were having a picnic on a lush hill. This wasn’t Jack main body, of course, but they shared a soul. He knew that the main body had just reentered the universe.
“How’s school going, Ebele?” he asked.
“It’s perfect!” she replied, stuffing herself with brioche bread. Crumbs rained on the blanket below. “My friends are all doing as great as I am, so we can be in the same classes. Norton got into coredust, however—I can see how it gives him energy, but relying on that it feels wrong.”
Jack chuckled. “Back in my day, we used coffee,” he said.
“Not everyone has the expensive coffee you use, dad. The regular kind just doesn’t affect cultivators.”
“It does if you drink enough.”
“Don’t encourage bad behaviors in your daughter!” Vivi said, her mood vibrant. “Focus on your studies, Ebele, but don’t forget to have fun. It’s equally important.”
“If not more,” Jack said.
“If not more,” Vivi agreed. “Forging a great self is better than excelling in your studies. It’s the foundation of everything.”
