Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Son of Fortune
Translator: 549690339
On the 8th of October in the 487th year of the Daya calendar, Ye Xiaorou was attacked and you accidentally stumbled onto the scene. You chose to intervene and drove the enemy away, thus revealing your cultivation. Ye Xiaorou developed a secret affection for you and invited you to visit the Ye’s family. Despite your polite refusal, Ye Xiaorou’s enthusiasm left you with no choice but to visit them.
The Ye Family was very surprised when they learned about your powers. After all, it’s quite remarkable for someone to reach Viscera Training at the age of thirty-three. They also noticed Ye Xiaorou’s affection for you and wanted to betroth her to you.
You refused their proposal due to the significant age gap. However, Ye Xiaorou didn’t care about the age difference and her father also believed that age was not an issue, wanting to bind you to the Ye family’s warship.
In the end, you agreed and successfully married Ye Xiaorou.
The Zhao Family was very displeased with your presence, seeing you as a future threat to their family, and wanted to get rid of you.
On the 4th of March in the 488th year of the Xia calendar, your cultivation successfully broke through to the mid-stage of the Viscera Training. At the same time, Ye Xiaorou was pregnant. The Ye family was overjoyed at this double blessing.
On the 1st of June, the Zhao Family paid a high price to hire a peak martial artist of the Viscera Training Stage, initiating a night raid on the Ye Family. That night, a bloody battle ensued in which Ye Xiaorou was killed; you almost went crazy, fighting fiercely in retaliation.
Despite your years of tough cultivation, you did not have a deep understanding of martial arts. Despite achieving mid-stage of Viscera Training, you were killed by a newbie elder from the Zhao Family.
In this battle, the Ye Family was wiped out. Only Ye Chen, a gifted son of the Family Master, managed to escape.
Due to your death, the simulation ends…
“I died again. As expected, getting married is a big taboo. A slight carelessness can lead to death. If I want to live long, I just have to cultivate low key.”
Wang Ping scratched his head, somewhat helpless.
However, Wang Ping in the simulation is a real person too. It’s natural to want to get married if you meet a girl you like when you grow older. He couldn’t stop that.
“Speaking of which, this Ye Chen is definitely no ordinary person. Surviving alone after his family was exterminated, he has an extraordinary talent. He’s the perfect template for a revenge-oriented main character.”
Wang Ping looked at the penultimate line of the text and muttered.
According to his understanding of the simulator, the simulation usually ends as soon as he dies. But this time, it simulated a bit more, which is unusual.
“Nevermind, whether he’s a main character template or not, I will find out in the future.’
Soon thereafter, Wang Ping didn’t think too much about it and was just excited about the rewards that the system was about to distribute.
“Ding, reward generation successful. You can choose one from the following rewards:
White Talent – Extraordinary Physique.
@. Combat Experience.
Whitened Talent – Business Genius.’
“This isn’t even a choice, it’s definitely the White Talent – Extraordinary
Physique.”
Looking at the rewards, Wang Ping didn’t hesitate to make his choice.
Only by choosing the Extraordinary Physique could his cultivation quickly improve.
As for the other rewards, their values were not significant.
“Successful selection.
The system’s voice resounded.
Then, Wang Ping felt a warmth in his body but experienced no other sensations.
However, Wang Ping clearly understood that his cultivation talent had been upgraded.
“Speaking of which, I was unexpectedly killed in this simulation. It’s definitely embarrassing.”
At this point, Wang Ping was reminded of his humiliating defeat and couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
Other cross-world travelers kill no matter their rank, but he was killed by an ordinary person, which is a true disgrace to the cultivators.
“It seems that when I get a chance, I have to practice Martial Arts more often. I can’t miss talents like Swordsmanship Genius.”
Wang Ping muttered to himself.
“System, I want to continue simulating.”
Subsequently, Wang Ping spoke again from his heart.
“Ding, this simulation requires the consumption of 4 Lower-tier Spirit Stones, do you want to start the simulation?” The system’s voice rang out.
“4 pieces?” Wang Ping was surprised.
He thought it would be 3, but it turned out to be 4 Lower-tier Spirit Stones, which was a twofold increase.
It better not be that the price doubles each time, next asking for 8 Lower-tier Spirit Stones?
That would be the end of him.
“Pay.” Although Wang Ping was slightly pained, he still chose to pay.
He had no choice but to spend his precious stones for the simulation and the strength it brings along.
“Ding, life simulation starts, talent refresh in progress…”
“Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully refreshing the White Talent:
Swordsmanship Genius, White Talent: Escape Master.”
White Talent: Swordsmanship Genius: Enhances the talent for swords to a certain extent.
White Talent: Escape Master: Increases speed to a certain extent while escaping.
“Uh… This Escape Master is quite unique.”
Wang Ping looked at the introduction of the two talents and his expression was complicated.
Now that he has the Escape Master talent, wouldn’t he be able to get a talent like ‘Fall Behind Others’ in the future, with the effect being something like ‘when you fall behind others, it’s harder for the enemy to target you as their primary target’.
“System, I choose White Talent: Escape Master.”
After contemplating, Wang Ping still chose the talent ‘Escape Master’. He had no choice, he just wanted to cultivate for the time being.
Although he has complained about being killed before, compared with confronting people, running faster is undoubtedly the key to surviving longer. “Ding, talent selection successful, life simulation begins… ‘
On the 10th of March in the 480th year of the Xia calendar, you spent the night devouring meat and shared the story of the fabled battle with Chifeng.
On the 10th of July in the 487th year of the Xia calendar, you fled to Bai Wood Village, two thousand miles away from Black Wind Town, and began to cultivate on the sly, no longer running a bun shop, but making a living by blacksmithing instead.
On the 8th of October, you learned that Ye Xiaorou would be attacked but didn’t intervene, resulting in her death.
On the 2nd of January in the 488th year of the Xia calendar, your cultivation successfully broke through to the mid-stage of Viscera Training.
On the 1st of June, the Zhao Family paid a heavy price to bring in a peak Viscera
Training Realm martial artist and launched a night raid on the Ye Family. The Ye Family was annihilated, with only Ye Chen escaping. You knew that this child would achieve greatness.
On the 5th of November in the 488th year of the Xia calendar, you successfully advanced to the latter stage of Viscera Training. Because the Ye Family was annihilated, and the Zhao Family dominated Bai Wood Village, the villagers had been bullied and oppressed. You couldn’t avoid it either, but you chose to endure and develop quietly.
On the 7th of June in the 489th year of the Xia calendar, you successfully advanced to the peak of the Viscera Training, one step away from the Post-Heaven Realm.
On the 1st of July, the 15-year-old Ye Chen returned to the Bai Wood Village, miraculously reaching the Post-Heaven Realm at the age of fifteen. He single-handedly annihilated the Zhao Family in revenge. You were surprised when you heard the news and felt your judgement was correct – this child is the Son of Fortune.
Because the Zhao Family and the Ye Family were consecutively exterminated, you relaxed and believed no one posed a threat to you in Bai Wood Village
