Chapter 280 – Disturbance In The Middle of The Night; Looking For Spontaneous Fun (3)
“Yes! Hell yes! Even in my dreams!” Zhou Jinjiang was so excited he just blurted out what was on his mind.
He has been waiting for this moment forever, how could he turned this opportunity down? Of course he wouldn’t turn it down!
Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled cheerfully and handed him a snow ginseng, “Uncle Zhou, this snow ginseng should be sufficient to help you through your bottleneck. You can’t complain if it didn’t work!”
“No, no, of course not. Xiao Xiao, I will go for it right away. Definitely break through tonight!”
The last line came floating in from the outside; it was quite obvious that Zhou Jinjiang was very excited.
And Cheng Biyuan father and daughter were the only ones left in the living room.
Cheng Biyuan, on the other hand, did not have the same hopeful look as the other two. Quite the contrary, he seemed very nonchalant, as though he was unaffected by everything that had just happened.
Seeing his reaction, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but became curious. She asked, “Dad, don’t you want to breakthrough? And become martial king tonight?”
“Of course I do!”
“Every single cultivator wants their cultivation level to go up continuously toward the highest level; but I am quite aware of my own situation. I am only at beginner martial spiritual level and had only recent broke through to it at that. It is simply not practical for me to expect to be able to breakthrough to martial king tonight.
“My situation is not the same as your Uncle Zhou and Elder Ying; they have been stuck at the bottleneck for years. All they needed was a little extra help to push them over the hump. As for myself? I don’t think that will be a realistic expectation on my part. As such, there is no need to hold out such unrealistic hopes. On top of that, their being able to breakthrough was already superb news for our family.”
Her father’s words made Cheng Xiao Xiao saw how truly calm and intelligent her father was. Only someone like him was good enough to be her father!
“Dad, you shouldn’t talk down about yourself like that. Your daughter is here. You will be able to breakthrough as long as you want to breakthrough. It’s all a matter of how determined you are!”
“Xiao Xiao, you mean….”
“Dad, I am not teasing you. You should have noticed that it took me a few days’ time to breakthrough from martial master to martial spiritualist. And that was only because I have just started cultivating recently and didn’t have a solid foundation; otherwise it would have taken me even less time. But, dad, you are not the same as me. You have been cultivating for some twenty years, and your talent was top notched. If you are will to take a chance, you just might be able to break though to martial king tonight just like Uncle Zhou!”
She paused and smiled light at her father, “But if you don’t want to give it a try, that is fine too. I knew you would be able to breakthrough sooner or later!”
“Xiao Xiao, your method of trying to be manipulative was quite horrid!” Cheng Biyuan couldn’t help but shook his head. Yet there was light of determination from his eyes, “I have been through so much hardship already. If Xiao Xiao you are telling me that this was possible, how could I not give it a try? I have already chosen the path of cultivation, naturally I must push through any obstacles that come my way.”
“Dad, you are right. I should have said that!” Cheng Xiao Xiao felt that she had hurt her dad’s feeling at that moment in time. She couldn’t help but lowered her head and said, “Dad, I am sorry!”
“Don’t be silly. There’s no need to apologize. You didn’t do anything wrong and you were right, I can overcome any kind of challenges!”
Cheng Biyuan reached out and patted his daughter on her skinny shoulder in an effort to comfort her.
Cheng Xiao Xiao was smiling as she looked up again. She produced the items that she had prepared for her father and said, “Dad, so this is how you are going to do it – first, you want to absorb this snow ginseng; that ought to get you to mid level martial spiritualist. But don’t stop here, then you want to drink this bottle of water. Just keep in mind that no matter how your body is feeling, just keep your lingtai clear and recite the mantra. If you keep to it you will succeed for certain. This bottle of water will get you to advanced level martial spiritualist. Then take this fiery fruit and you will breakthrough to martial king. It is definitely doable!”
