“Is there a problem?” Chu Qing took the initiative to ask. He felt that his mother didn’t tell him this for no reason.
His mother said with a worried expression, “You already have someone you like and have grown up. There are some things I won’t hide from you. A few days ago, you saw that Second Aunt of yours.”
“Actually, she and I are half-sisters, sharing the same mother but different fathers. Our family is quite large, with around seven or eight siblings. Our mother, your grandmother, married multiple times and had children with different men. When I was younger, I had feelings for your father. However, my family didn’t approve of our relationship, so we decided to elope.”
“But I didn’t anticipate that they would still come searching for you. My family is quite extensive, and they adhere to strict family rules. They arranged a marriage for you with another influential family. That’s why your Second Aunt visited our house last time. You must be aware of this already.”
“Afterward, something occurred that caused a delay in the matter. However, they won’t give up easily. Someone will surely come again. I feel helpless about the situation, as I can’t protect you from their persistence. During your Second Aunt’s previous visit, she was merely making verbal threats. However, there’s a possibility she might resort to more forceful actions in the future.”
“If you’re unwilling, there might only be one way left. That is to enter the National University. Only by entering the number one university can you control your own fate. Those people won’t go overboard.”
When Chu Qing heard her words, his hands had unknowingly clenched into fists. He had been in this world for so long, and this was the first time his mother had shown such a weak side in front of him.
It became apparent to Chu Qing that the family had inflicted significant harm upon his mother. However, his mother seemed to avoid discussing the matter directly, leaving certain details unspoken. An indescribable shadow crossed his eyes, indicating his deep concern. Chu Qing inquired, “Can’t the Ye family also resist their influence and protect you?”
She smiled bitterly. “You want to marry Ye Chcnxi and get rid of the marriage alliance? It’s useless. The Ye family is still lacking. Moreover, the Ye family isn’t as glorious as it looks on the surface. They seem to have offended someone recently.”
“Even though our company has relied on the support of the Ye family to overcome certain challenges, it also means that the Ye family stands by our side. In the future, the Ye family’s enemies will be our enemies as well. Sigh, why am I burdening you with these details? You don’t need to worry. I can manage for now. Your focus should be on studying diligently. The college entrance examination is approaching, and once you enter a prestigious university like National University, no one will dare to cause you any trouble.” “Okay,” Chu Qing agreed.
However, there were thousands of thoughts in his mind. After accepting the Ye family’s favor, he had to bear its enemies. Chu Qing could understand this. It seemed that his mother was worried because of this.
There was also his mother’s family, the Chu family. From what his mother said, they were even stronger than the Ye family. They were also an ancient martial arts family. With Chu Qing’s current strength, he was not even enough to face the Ye family, let alone the Chu family.
He was still not strong enough. If he could recover his previous life’s realm, he would not have to be so vexed. However, it was worth considering if he could enter the National University.
National University had a special existence in this world. Not only was it the best university in the country, but it was also one of the most powerful forces in the country. Over the centuries, this institution has played a crucial role in shaping the empire by fostering numerous talented individuals and influencing every facet of its existence.
It could be said that anyone who came from there could support a family. If he could enter the National University, many things would be much simpler. Moreover, Chu Qing wanted to understand the essence of this world.
He thought that there was no better place than the National University. There was definitely a lot of top-secret information there. Thinking of this, Chu Qing had already decided that he wanted to enter the National University not only because of the marriage but also because of the secrets of this world.
After his mother left, Chu Qing did his homework for a while before starting to cultivate. Golden spiritual energy circulated in his meridians and sank into his dantian bit by bit. At this moment, Chu Qing’s dantian had completely crystallized.
As long as he polished it for a few days, he could completely step into the next realm. The Core Formation realm was also known as the Core Crystal realm. At that time, his dantian would turn into a Core Crystal and Chu Qing’s strength would take a qualitative leap.
In the realm of cultivation, there were five realms: Initiation, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, and Supreme Enlightenment. Each step could be likened to a formidable abyss, with the difficulty increasing as one progressed. It was said to be even more challenging than ascending to the heavens. In Chu Qing’s previous life, he spent 300 years engaged in countless life-and-death battles, fought numerous bloody conflicts, and sustained countless injuries. It was only after treading upon mountains of corpses and wading through seas of blood that he finally reached the pinnacle.
He broke through to the Supreme Enlightenment realm, stepped into the Ascension realm, and shattered the void. He thought that he would enter the legendary cultivation world. Who would have thought that he would come to such a strange and familiar world by chance?
The Ascension realm was the highest realm Chu Qing had ever reached. People in this realm could no longer be called immortal cultivators, but roaming immortals. They were between humans and immortals. According to Chu Qing’s speculation, the next realm should be the Immortal realm.
Only by stepping into the cultivation world could he break through. Chu Qing stopped cultivating and looked up at the sky. He wondered if he could shatter the void and fly on his sword in this world.
As Chu Qing pondered upon this, a surge of immense heroism filled his heart. With a swift motion of his arm, a once-weathered sword materialized and expanded in his grasp. Standing tall with the sword in hand, his garments billowed without the aid of the wind. He emanated an aura that seemed capable of shattering the very fabric of reality, reminiscent of the power he possessed in his previous life..
