When Bai Yun returned home, he saw his mother busy at the stove. The dim light reflected her rough hands and thin face, and Bai Yun felt sad.

"Mom, I'm back!" Bai Yun said softly.

The mother turned around and saw Bai Yun, and a trace of worry immediately appeared on her face: "How is it? Has the martial spirit awakened?"

Bai Yun nodded and said casually: "It has awakened. It is a dog-head martial spirit, and its innate spirit power is level one."

The mother was stunned for a moment, then a look of ecstasy appeared on her face: "Really? That's great! That's great! Your father's spirit in heaven can rest in peace!"

She pulled Baiyun over, looked him up and down, her eyes full of relief.

"Mom, why are you so happy?" Bai Yun was a little confused. "It's just the first level of innate soul power. Wang Erya is stronger than me."

"Silly child," the mother gently stroked Bai Yun's hair, "You don't know that being able to awaken your martial spirit is already a great fortune. Your father was also a spirit master back then, and his talent was much better than yours..."

When she said this, the mother's voice suddenly choked up and a look of pain flashed in her eyes.

Bai Yun knew that his mother was going to mention his father again. His father died when he was very young, and it was said that he met with an accident while hunting a soul beast. Bai Yun had a vague memory of his father, and only remembered his tall and mighty figure, and the candied haws he brought him every time he came home.

"Mom, don't be sad," Bai Yun held his mother's hand, "I will work hard to become a powerful soul master like my father!"

The mother took a deep breath and suppressed the sadness in her heart. "Good child, I am glad that you have this heart. However, you must remember that the power of a soul master is not used to do evil, but to protect the weak and help others."

The mother's expression became complicated. "Especially, you can't be like... you can't go astray. You must promise me that you will always be a kind and upright person."

She seemed to want to say something, but in the end she didn't. She just hugged Bai Yun tightly, as if she wanted to rub him into her body.

Bai Yun's heart tightened, and the scene of the day when he awakened his martial spirit at the age of three flashed through his mind.

His dog-headed martial spirit exuded an ominous aura, and my mother must have seen it.

So she already knew...

But my memories of my past life had not yet awakened!

"Mom, don't worry, I know what my martial spirit means." Bai Yun looked at his mother affectionately and decided not to hide the truth anymore. "You are right, strength is not used to bully others. I will use it to protect everything we cherish in the future."

When the mother heard her son's answer, a complex look flashed across her eyes. She knew that the power of this martial spirit was beyond imagination, and she also remembered the evil spirit that was faintly revealed when Bai Yun awakened three years ago.

At that time, she was extremely worried, fearing that her son would go astray. But now, looking at Bai Yun's determined eyes, she knew that her worries might be unnecessary.

"My dear child, I feel relieved if you think this way." The mother said gently, with slightly red eyes.

The air was filled with the rich aroma of food. Bai Yun felt her stomach growling and couldn't help but smile: "Mom, I'm hungry."

The mother patted Baiyun's shoulder, her laughter was filled with the kindness that only mothers can give. "Go wash your hands quickly, the food will be ready soon. Go get the rattan chair that Dad made by hand, our whole family will have dinner together tonight."

Bai Yun nodded in agreement, turned around and went to the utility room, and took out the rattan chair. The chair was carved with simple and delicate patterns, which were woven by his father when he was alive. Every time he took out the rattan chair, it was like bringing his father's love to the mother and son around the dining table.

Simple home-cooked dishes were laid out on the table, and every bite was full of the taste of home. Under the warm light, Bai Yun and his mother ate while talking about the past and the future. At this moment, Bai Yun deeply realized that no matter how glorious the past was, this moment - the ordinary and warm life, was his most precious treasure.

Mother's love nourishes Baiyun's heart like spring rain, and this emotional exchange is also quietly building the cornerstone of Baiyun's future.

Whether it is the power given by the martial soul or the warmth given by the mother, they are the greatest motivation for Bai Yun to move forward.

On this extraordinary night, Baiyun truly found the feeling of being at home.

"Yun'er, in two years you will be old enough to go to the Soul Master Academy to study." The mother said casually while cleaning up the dishes.

"Soul Master Academy?" Bai Yun put down the chicken leg bone in his hand and asked doubtfully, "Mom, it will cost a lot of money to go to the Soul Master Academy, right?"

Although he was young, he knew that the tuition fees of the Soul Master Academy were very expensive. Many families even had to sell their land to support their children's schooling.

The mother walked up to Bai Yun, stroked his hair gently, and said softly, "Silly child, I know everything about the academy. Your father once said that if you awaken your soul power in the future, he will definitely send you to the best academy to study."

"But..." Bai Yun wanted to say something else but was interrupted by his mother.

"No buts." The mother's tone suddenly became firm. "Although your father is gone, I promised him that I would definitely let you walk on the right path of a soul master and become a man who can stand tall and proud!"

Bai Yun looked at his mother's determined eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that in order for him to study with peace of mind, his mother would definitely make great efforts.

"Mom, don't worry, I will practice hard and become a powerful soul master in the future, so that you and dad will be proud of me!" Bai Yun clenched his fists and said in a firm tone.

"Good boy, mother believes in you!" The mother smiled with relief, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seemed to be smoothed out.

In the days that followed, my mother worked even harder than before. She went out early and came back late, and in addition to taking care of the family's fields, she also took on a lot of sewing and mending work.

Bai Yun saw it and felt pain in his heart. He took the initiative to take on all the housework at home, hoping to share some of the burden with his mother.

At night, under the dim oil lamp, Bai Yun was practicing soul power control while his mother was mending clothes beside him.

"Yun'er, are you tired? Take a break and then practice again." The mother looked at Bai Yun with heartache and said softly.

"Mom, I'm not tired. I want to practice for a while longer." Bai Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will practice hard so that I can help you share the burden."

The mother put down her needlework, walked to Baiyun, and gently stroked his cheek, her eyes full of love: "Silly child, I don't ask you to achieve much, I just hope you can grow up safely and healthily."

"Mom, I will." Bai Yun held his mother's hand and said firmly.

He knew that his mother had sacrificed too much for him. He secretly vowed to cultivate hard and become a powerful soul master as soon as possible, and use his own strength to protect his mother and this family!
