Chapter 7: Father Jiang Is Here

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Yu felt that there was an obvious bug in this system setting.

The mission was ridiculous, and the punishment for failing the mission… It was more like a reward. Moreover… Was the system planning to give him a 999-gold Body Refinement Pill after he failed the mission?

It was impossible for him to reach the first level in a day by training alone. With his environment, it was impossible for him to break through even if he consumed 99 Body Refinement Pills to repeat the previous method.

He had to keep taking pills. Those pills didn’t have any taste, and they didn’t fill his stomach. He could eat as much as he wanted. Did that mean that he only needed to eat to complete his cultivation?!

Jiang Yu immediately felt the solution was extremely ridiculous.

The system knew what he was thinking and it flapped its wings proudly. [You only need to eat to cultivate. How good is that? Everybody could do so!]

“So boring,” Jiang Yu waved his hand, “Don’t give me such missions next time. I don’t have the motivation to complete them at all.”

Because if he failed the mission, he could cultivate more easily. Doesn’t that mean, doing nothing was the better way?

He didn’t want to be a loser! Otherwise, his father would take him back to inherit the family business.

The system didn’t care about this. It was only responsible for setting the mission. [Don’t worry, host. If you don’t complete it, you still must do the punishment. If you refuse to execute it, an accident will befall you.]

“What accident?” Jiang Yu’s heart skipped a beat. “You don’t want my life, do you?”

When he read in the past, he had seen many examples of people who had to exchange their lives for failed missions. Even if it was not their lives, it could be something they held dear. In short, there was no free lunch in the world. Everyone understood the meaning of this sentence.

[Of course, it’s to force the host to consume 999 Body Tempering Pills!]

‘…’

Alright, he had nothing to say about this punishment. It made him lose the motivation to continue cultivating.

However, Jiang Yu still took the Body Tempering Pill in the end. The process was the same as the previous few times. He failed continuously and was rewarded with pills. However, he still hadn’t reached the first stage of Body Tempering Realm.

At this time, the fitness equipment he wanted had also been delivered to the villa.

In the morning, Jiang Yu was very disappointed after using all the fitness equipment.

This was because the equipment was too simple for him. No matter how he trained, he would not feel tired at all. Then what was the meaning of training?

Wasn’t the point in training to break through one’s limits bit by bit?

Therefore, he couldn’t use these fitness equipments to train his body!

[Host, increasing your strength is the same as tempering your body. Perhaps you can try other methods.]

Since his mission was to increase his strength, then running was obviously not that fruitful.

“Increasing my strength?”

This was the first time the system had explained to him.

Jiang Yu came to the side of the rockery and punched it heavily. The rockery shattered instantly.

“This is the strength you were talking about, right? How am I supposed to train? I’m already very strong now.”

Jiang Yu rubbed his wrist and didn’t feel any pain.

Seeing this, the system fell silent.

All along, it had neglected a problem. At this time, there was no recovery of spiritual power, so it was easy to shatter this object that had no spiritual power. Items without spiritual energy were very fragile and could not bear the burden of body-tempering missions at all.

What should the host do now? The system also fell into deep thought.

The pill was indeed effective, but to completely transform a person, one still had to rely on oneself.

What the two of them did not expect was that a man and a woman were watching all of this from the shadows of the villa.

“What happened? I haven’t seen my son for a few days, and he’s already so powerful.”

Father Jiang was very puzzled. He didn’t believe that the current Jiang Yu could be so powerful.

After all, when Jiang Yu was bullied by the hooligans in school, he didn’t have the strength to fight back at all.

But now… Smashing a miniature mountain with his bare hands? No matter how one looked at it, this matter was ridiculous.

Or was this miniature mountain actually fake? Did everything that happened here was colluded by Jiang Yu, the butler, and Mother Ye? In other words, this miniature mountain could be a cheap replica.

If Mother Ye knew what Father Jiang was thinking, she would explain immediately.

“This kid is quite powerful. He even broke my rockery. After so many years, no one has laid a hand on my rockery.”

Although Mother Ye said it with a smile, her heart was not calm.

Although she had agreed, the moment she saw the miniature mountain shatter, her heart ached. That decor was not cheap!

“Humph! I don’t believe that I’m so good at it!”

Father Jiang still did not believe it. He looked at the miniature mountain and suddenly rolled up his sleeve to punch it.

“Mr. Jiang! What are you doing?!”

Mother Ye was so frightened that she didn’t even care about her manners. She went forward to check his hand and found that it was already red.

“Humph! It’s not broken yet. I’ll try again!”

He did not believe that he could not even subdue a miniature mountain.

However, after a few punches, nothing happened to the decor, yet the man’s fist was already swollen. Just a light touch was enough to hurt him badly.

“Aaaaaaah!”

Father Jiang belatedly sensed the pain and cried out, but he quickly shut his mouth again.

He had come secretly, so he could not let his son find out.

“Mr. Jiang, I told you that it was a real mountain replica. Ordinary people can’t break it.”

Mother Ye was even more surprised. Even Father Jiang couldn’t break it, so how could the weak Jiang Yu do it?

This was too strange! Could it be that Jiang Yu really cultivated some kind of martial arts?

Father Jiang also fell into deep thought.

In that case, was there a need for him to let his child go back and inherit the family business? Why not just give him a sum of money and let him start his own company? He was also considering training him.

The two of them watched from behind the rockery, neither of them daring to appear before the younger boy.

However, just as they were thinking about what to do, Jiang Yu’s voice came from afar.

“Don’t hide yourself, I know you are there.”

In fact, Jiang Yu already knew when the two of them appeared near the rockery.

However, he only knew that someone was watching nearby. It was only when Father Jiang let out a cry of pain that Jiang Yu was sure that his father had come.

Jiang Yu felt a headache coming on when he thought of the things he had argued with him about inheriting the family business at home.

“Dad, I’ve already made everything clear to you. I don’t want to inherit the family business!”

Now that Mother Ye was still by his side, he didn’t want to talk about the college entrance examination scores for the time being, lest others see him as a joke.

Father Jiang said earnestly, “Jiang Yu, we’ve been through this before. Inheriting the family business is your best choice. No matter what job you take up in the future, it won’t be as comfortable as working in your own company.”

Jiang Yu’s ears were about to get calluses from hearing such words again.
