"If I guess correctly, you... must be evil cultivators, right?"

Zhou Ming's words made the couple, Ying Shiyu and Mei Qianhong, who were already very angry, feel as if they were hit seven inches. They opened their mouths, looked at each other, and lowered their heads slightly at the same time.

His expression became embarrassed and guilty.

Mei Qianhong even grabbed the sleeves of her skirt, with some remorse on her face.

Zhou Ming seemed to be completely within his expectations, and continued: "Actually, from the day we met, I guessed that there must be some problems with my body's qualifications."

"That's a huge difference!"

"Both my parents are immortals with outstanding qualifications. As a descendant of immortals, my qualifications should not be too bad. Even if I become an immortal, it won't be too different."

People often say, "A dragon begets a dragon, a phoenix begets a phoenix, and a mouse's son can make holes." This shows that what kind of genes you have will produce what kind of offspring.

Qualifications are also heritable to a certain extent. Although it cannot be concluded at once that the descendants of dragons must also be dragons, and the descendants of heroes must also be heroes. However, when people with good qualifications combine with each other, the probability of producing offspring with excellent qualifications is definitely higher than that of ordinary people. The offspring produced are much taller.

But Zhou Ming's parents were both in the late stage of solidification, and he was only in the early stage of liquid condensation. Not to mention there was a gap of four or five levels in between, and it was still difficult to make any progress in the past few years.

My parents are so awesome, but I am a scumbag. It’s not that I don’t work hard, but even my hard work has no effect.

Anyone with a little common sense would feel something is wrong.

"But the actual situation is that my qualifications are quite average, and I may be stuck in the early stage of condensation for the rest of my life, unable to make any progress."

"The problem is that my seven children are all much better qualified than me. Two of my sons have surpassed me in cultivation, which further proves that something happened to me."

"In addition, regarding Yinghua Valley, I learned some information about this sect from several businessmen from Feiyun Mountain, which surprised me."

"Yinghua Valley is a well-known evil sect. Many people call it the 'Huaying Valley', which makes people laugh when they talk about it. It is said that this 'Huaying Valley' has to offer 100 sacrifices to the city under its control every year for less than a hundred days. The baby boy and girl were sent to the Valley of Transformation for refining... In the end, only the baby was seen going in, but no baby came out, hence the name 'Valley of Transformation for Infants'."

"They also said that there are two powerful demons living in the Valley of Transformation..."

Seeing that Mei Qianhong's body was trembling violently and her face was very pale, Zhou Ming didn't want to stimulate her anymore, so he asked directly: "I guess my qualifications have also been transformed by you two, right?"

He laughed at himself, shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect that my own flesh and blood would be able to do that."

"No, it's not like that!"

Mei Qianhong hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his hand. Tears as big as peas fell down and she cried, "I have my own reasons for being a mother. I did it as a last resort."

"What's the reason?" Zhou Ming asked.

"The technique I practice is called "Yin Yang Seizing Transformation Kung Fu". Once it is in operation, it will absorb the talents of others... I originally thought that I would not have children in this life, so... I did many things that were harmful to nature, but that After I became pregnant with you, I regretted it for my mother. In order not to damage your qualifications, I stopped practicing the "Yin Yang Seizing Transformation Gong"..."

Mei Qianhong grabbed Zhou Ming's hand tightly, "Son, you are my mother's flesh and blood, how could my mother harm you?"

"It's just that when I was eight months pregnant, the traitor leaked the news, and Feiyun Mountain suddenly came to kill me. Your father couldn't resist, and I lost all my strength and became a burden. I was no match for Feiyun Mountain. The Yinghua Valley was destroyed at the hands of Feiyun Mountain, and we had no choice but to flee. Feiyun Mountain wanted to kill us all, but it sent people to hunt us down without stopping!"

"In order to survive, mother had to practice the "Yin Yang Seizing Transformation Kung Fu" again and faced the enemy with your father. Only then did she save her life!"

"Son, mother really didn't mean it!"

Mei Qianhong tried her best to explain.

Ying Shiyu also added: "The four elders of Feiyun Mountain who were chasing us that year were no match for me. If your mother didn't recover her cultivation, my whole family would be dead, and I wouldn't be you." It’s so easy to be deprived of your qualifications.”

Zhou Ming's expression brightened slightly, and he generally accepted this statement.

The so-called "Yin Yang Seizing Transformation Gong" is the kind of evil skill that can take away the qualifications of others. After Mei Qianhong and Tassel Jade practiced it, in order to improve their own qualifications, they had to refine hundreds of children every year and embarked on the journey. Take this shortcut.

Unexpectedly, after they had their own children and became parents, they began to have a little humanity. For the future of her son, Mei Qianhong not only refused to transform her son, but stopped practicing "Yin Yang Duo Transformation Gong". Afraid of devouring their son's qualifications, most parents in the world want their children to live a good life. Even bad guys have their good sides.

However, in the face of Feiyun Mountain taking advantage of the opportunity and relentless pursuit, survival was given top priority. In order to survive, it was inevitable to sacrifice something.

For example, Zhou Ming's qualifications turned into mediocrity after Mei Qianhong's "Yin Yang Seizing Transformation Gong" resumed operation.

This process is irreversible, and you can’t get it back if you take it away.

And with Zhou Ming's wood-type physique, he can't practice the "Yin-Yang Seizing Transformation Kung Fu" to take away other people's qualifications... Of course, he won't do that, even if there is an evil technique suitable for him.

The system also told him: Although evil cultivators who practice by plundering other people's qualifications can speed up their cultivation, their final achievements will not be very high because the mixed "qualifications" are not pure enough, and the further they go, the greater the side effects. , the stronger the backlash, the greater the probability of something going wrong, or even being completely possessed.

But having said so much, someone may want to ask: What exactly are qualifications?

Why is it so important?

Zhou Ming also asked this question, and the system gave him the answer.

Qualification is a person's inherent potential in the field of practice.

Qualifications are divided into two parts: body and soul.

The physical body determines the amount of spiritual energy it can hold.

The soul determines the quality of the spiritual essence.

Obviously, the importance of quality is far greater than quantity!

Because the density of spiritual particles compressed into a solid state is much higher than that of a gas or a liquid.

Therefore, the essence of qualifications refers to the quality of the soul, and the body is only secondary.

When evil cultivators take away other people's qualifications, they are essentially damaging their souls.

Zhou Ming's body can be cultivated to the liquid condensation stage. According to the system, it is stained with some light from Zhou Ming's soul. Otherwise, it cannot even be cultivated to the Qi refining stage, and it is completely useless.

And the damage to the soul is difficult to repair, so if you want to become a peerless strongman, you can only put your hope in the next game.

So, does he still blame his parents—Ying Shiyu and Mei Qianhong?

He shook his head. This body was already like this, and monsters couldn't solve the problem. He told this matter, one to confirm the answer, and the other to give them a beating.

He said to the two of them: "I don't want to pursue the past. The Yinghua Valley has the rules of the Yinghua Valley, and Zhenlin City also has the laws of Zhenlin City! But this is Zhenlin City, so we must abide by the laws of Zhenlin City! Anyone who dares to violate it will be punished, there will be no one outside the law!"

"Yin Xianqi's crime is unforgivable and he will definitely be executed. As well as the other disciples of Yinghua Valley, I hope you can strictly restrain yourself and stop doing illegal things. If a bad incident like Yin Xianqi's happens again, Zhenlin City will still deal with it in accordance with the law! I The personal safety and property of a Zhenlin City citizen will not be allowed to be damaged in the slightest!"

Zhou Ming's tone was extremely tough.

"But, Yin Xianqi is your senior brother! We, Yinghua Valley, have trained him for more than twenty years, and then we just killed him like this?"

Tassel Jade is hard to accept, but Yin Xianqi is respectful, well-behaved, attentive to work, and has a master-disciple relationship for more than 20 years. The relationship is so deep that it can be said that he is like a biological son.

"Son, Xianqi was just confused for a moment and accidentally killed someone. For our sake, let's spare him once. We will teach him a lesson."

Mei Qianhong also held Zhou Ming's hand with a pleading look on her face.

"The law is the cornerstone of Zhenlin City's stability and prosperity. It is the safety guarantee for foreign businessmen to come here to do business. It is also the reason why countless immigrants want to settle here!"

"Because this place is safe, stable, and public order is good. You don't have to worry about strongmen taking away their property, and you don't have to worry about powerful monks accidentally taking their lives!"

"The laws of Zhenlin City are not only to safeguard the interests of the so-called ants in your eyes, but also to safeguard the interests of everyone!"

"This set of laws is like a piece of fine ceramics, which is very valuable but easily broken. Once broken, it is difficult to repair."

"In Zhenlin City, there are more than a hundred disciples of Yinghua Valley, but many recent security cases have been related to these people. I don't know whether it is their nature, or because of the indulgence of some people, which makes them emboldened... ...But there is no doubt that some of the disciples in Yinghua Valley are becoming a cancer in this city."

"I will not let this cancer grow. Anyone who dares to break the law will be severely punished in accordance with the law!"

"There is no doubt that Yin Xian will be killed together. If the Yinghua Valley disciples engage in a large number of illegal activities, they will all be expelled!"

"You don't ask for mercy either. I have no personal relationship to talk about here!"

After saying that, Zhou Ming flicked his sleeves and left the living room expressionlessly.

Ying Shiyu and Mei Qianhong looked at each other, at a loss.
