Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Chapter 30



My father rose up and looked at me with shock. His mouth was agape.

I smiled at him, and then looked at Liu Xin, who was sitting on the other edge of the ring. Liu Kun next to him was furious. With my victory, the people who would be sent to the martial gathering were all but confirmed. There was no way that Liu Kun would win against Liu Heng, so he would be sitting this one completely out.

The second elder, their father, had an ugly face. He looked at me with anger, and confusion. If both his children went to the martial gathering, then he would become the face of the Liu Family. But now, he was no longer that.

“We shall take a short break for the participants to recover themselves.” the judge said, and he got off the ring.

With that, my place got swarmed. People from all over rushed to me, trying to take a look at this sudden reversal of the idiot young master.

“Young master, you must surely remember me! I helped you in my, ahem, shop the other year. You must surely remember our friendship.” one person shouted. I looked at that man with a weird glance.

“I thought that this was the Liu Family gathering. Why are there people from all over the city?” I mused.

“It is because this is also a show of strength. To show the city that the Liu Family is not weak. To show the city that there are people in the younger generation to take the city forward. I thought that you knew that when you just went and shocked everyone witless.” my father took me by my arm and dragged me away from the crowd. Once we were in the corner, he looked at me coldly.

“Since the time you disappeared, you were different. I knew the moment since you were able to cultivate, the old Liu Feng was dead. But to think that you have changed so much! I was shocked enough to see that you were in the foundation establishment stage. But to think that you had such killer instincts. Are you the same Liu Feng that I know?” he asked me seriously.

“Father. I-”

“Cut the act. I saw the spatial ring on your hand a long time ago. Do you really think that you can trick me? You do not remember much about your father, do you? I did not spend all my life in this small city. I traveled the city, I was part of the army, and I sure as hell know when a kid is lying to me. Now tell me. Who is this master that gave you all these gifts? And what happened to you for you to change so much?” he asked.

I took a step back.

“Father. There are many things that I cannot explain. But one thing is true. I am no longer the same Liu Feng of the past. I am different. I have changed. And not just because of the master who gave me this new life. This change would have happened regardless. I am a new person. As for the rest, I am honor bound not to reveal anything to anyone. I am sorry, but this is an oath that I took.” I said, baking half truths into my words.

“You do not understand, do you? By doing all of this, you just put a damn target on your back!” he shouted at me. His eyes filled with anger.

“A target on my back? What are you talking about father?” I asked, confused.

“It means, there are people all over the city, all over the kingdom who were waiting for you to do something like this. They were all ready to kill you, and you just gave them a reason to. I hoped that you would stay the same idiot way that you were. Just a fool living his life. But you just had to make something of yourself. Now, the enemies of your father will start hunting for you.” he shook his head.

“But you are my father.” I protested.

“Do you really believe that?! You knew the moment that you heard it in the council. I brought you here, and protected you. But I cannot do that forever. Clearly not. You have to grow stronger. Get to the Xiantian Realm at least. You have five years to get to the Xiantian Realm. After that, you are a dead man if you do not get there. I will let you participate in the martial gathering. After this, you need to go to the Sky Heavens Sect. I will give you a letter. Once you enter the sect, the person who this letter is for, he will know that you have arrived. Just go there, and get stronger. That is the only thing that you can do now. A pity. I have failed him.” Liu Qian shook his head as he turned away.

I looked at this scene with dumbfounded eyes. I could not believe my ears. I was clearly adopted, and my background was far more terrifying than I had intended. I also had a target behind my back?

I slumped to the wall that I was near. I looked at the stage, and the crowd that was talking about me and Liu Xin. They were making assumptions. I just looked at this and shook my head.

“What are you doing here, young one? You have a match in a few minutes, do you not?” I heard an old voice behind me. I turned around, to see the elder who guarded the building with the weapons that I had entered a few months ago.

“Elder!” I stood up straight and greeted him.

“I am no elder. I am just a guard. And you are just a young one. What are you so sad about? Gosh, that Liu Qian. He never knew when to talk about what. Never mind all of that, boy. You should just focus on the match ahead. If you win, that is even better. Just focus on what is imminent.” the old man said.

I looked down, thinking about it. Then, I turned back to thank him.

“Wait. Where did he go?”

In just a few seconds, he disappeared.
