Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
That night, there was a commotion in the mansion.
Zhang Mu, who was meditating and waiting, suddenly opened his eyes: "They're here!"
Zhang Mu drew his sword from beside the bed and went outside.
Upon stepping outside, Zhang Mu saw dozens of men in black searching for something. Thanks to his prior preparations, Zhang Mu had dismissed the ordinary people in the mansion the day before, thus preventing a massacre.
Soon, Zhang Lin and Su Yun heard the commotion and came outside.
"Xiao Mu! Danger! Get inside quickly!"
Seeing Zhang Musu come outside, Su Yun became anxious.
Zhang Lin glared at the men in black who had barged into the mansion and demanded, "Who are you? Why are you trespassing on Zhang's property?"
"The one who will take your life!"
Kill! Leave no one alive!
Without explaining anything, the man in black raised his sword and slashed at Zhang Lin.
"Yun'er, quickly take Xiao Mu away!"
After parrying several blows, Zhang Lin realized that his opponents were all experts in internal energy cultivation, and his expression changed slightly.
"and you..."
Su Yun was very worried.
"Hurry...it'll be too late if we don't leave now!"
Zhang Lin roared as he defended himself. These guys were cooperating very well, which greatly increased the pressure on him.
Su Yun hesitated. She didn't want to abandon her husband and run away, but when she thought of Zhang Mu, she knew she could die, but she had to make sure Zhang Mu lived.
So he rushed up to Zhang Mu and grabbed his hand: "Xiao Mu, come with me quickly, don't let your father be distracted here."
Zhang Mu shook his head: "Mother, don't worry, my master is more than capable of handling these people."
Then he shouted, "Old Qiu, it's your turn to make a move!"
"It's time to stretch our muscles."
A figure darted swiftly through the crowd, and a few breaths later, dozens of people were sent flying backward.
"puff!"
"What!"
"There's a master! Retreat!"
Qiu Jizi sneered, "Trying to leave? Have you asked me first?"
"Die!"
A powerful suction force immobilized dozens of people, causing them to fly towards Qiu Jizi.
"Old Qiu, spare his life!"
Zhang Mu shouted immediately, wanting to see if anyone was secretly directing these guys.
Little did they know that these people, realizing they could not escape, bit into the poison sacs in their mouths and burst them, and they all died from the poison in a short while.
Zhang Mu was a little dumbfounded. Was it really that decisive?
I initially thought it was an enemy coming to my door, but their fearless decisiveness and unity suggest they are definitely not simple people.
"Congratulations to the reincarnated one for successfully defying fate! Your score has increased, and rewards will be settled after returning to the main world!"
As all the men in black died, a notification sound appeared in Zhang Mu's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully escaping danger! You are rewarded with 100,000 system points!]
Ye Yu also took the opportunity to give the host as many system points as he could.
Although they have left the assessment world and are no longer subject to as many restrictions, there are still some limitations.
The system cannot directly improve the host's strength or give points to the system for no reason.
There must be a legitimate reason.
I don't know which idiot made that rule.
Ye Yu, who was hiding in the shadows, curled his lip, but this was no problem for him. Anyway, he didn't lack Origin Points, so he would give the highest possible rewards.
Zhang Mu was delighted to hear the two encouraging sounds; he hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise, and his system was truly generous.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Qiu, for saving us. Otherwise, my family of three would probably have met with disaster."
Zhang Lin quickly stepped forward to express his gratitude, and Su Yun also brought Zhang Mu over to thank Qiu Jizi.
"You flatter me. Xiao Mu is practically my apprentice, so it's only right that I help him."
Qiu Jizi chuckled and waved his hand.
Fighting dozens of internal energy experts was a piece of cake for him; in fact, he came out on top.
Ye Yu offered quite a few benefits.
Those are Origin Points. Even a thousand Origin Points would be enough for him to break through the barrier that had been holding him back for many years.
He broke through to the level of being indestructible and reaching the realm of gods!
Having survived the first ordeal, Zhang Mu breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could grow up, what he lacked most was time.
In the days that followed, Zhang Mu continued to study martial arts with Qiu Jizi for two more months.
Although his skill level did not improve, his understanding of martial arts reached a new level.
"I can't stay any longer. This place is rejecting me more and more, and it's time to go back."
That day, Qiu Jizi bid farewell to Zhang Mu.
"Okay, thank you for your guidance, Professor Qiu. I hope we will have the opportunity to meet again."
Zhang Mu nodded.
"Haha...I'm looking forward to that day!"
Qiu Jizi laughed loudly, then passed through the world passage and disappeared from the spot.
Zhang Mu's eyes flickered. He felt that there would be such a day. As long as he kept reincarnating, he would eventually be able to go to Qiu Jizi's world.
After saying goodbye to Qiu Jizi, Zhang Mu continued to train at home, planning to wait until his body had developed sufficiently before going to find the simulated Qingyun Sect.
That place was the site of his second tribulation. Logically speaking, once he had passed the first tribulation, he would not be triggered again as long as he did not actively seek it out, and he would be able to become a formal reincarnated person after returning.
Why not take advantage of free ratings?
He now understands that in the simulation, he has no system support and everything seems quite ordinary and incompetent.
But in reality, I have a system cheat code, so what's there to worry about!
What kind of instinctive targeting of the world's consciousness! It's all trash in front of my system!
"System, I love you to death!"
Zhang Mu chuckled.
"0.0..."
This left Ye Yu speechless; why had his host suddenly gone mad?
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Eight-year-old Zhang Mu has already reached a height of 1.7 meters due to his martial arts training.
He looked very handsome and resolute, with bright and piercing eyes.
"Father, do you know about the Qingyun Sect?"
At the dinner table, Zhang Mu asked a question.
"Qingyun Sect...of course I know about it, but why are you asking about it?"
Zhang Lin was somewhat puzzled.
"I wish to become a disciple of the Qingyun Sect."
"Become a disciple of the Qingyun Sect? Isn't Elder Qiu your master? I don't see anything there that's worth your time there."
Zhang Lin had no idea that Qiu Jizi was not from this world. Even after two years, he only believed that Qiu Jizi had left for some reason.
Seeing this, Zhang Mu could only make up an excuse: "Elder Qiu sent me a message, telling me to learn the martial arts of various schools, so that it will be of more help to my future cultivation. I can't just learn the strengths of one school, I have to be open-minded!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lin knew he couldn't say anything more and could only agree.
Su Yun was rather saddened, as her child was only eight years old and had to leave home.
"Mother, don't worry. It's not like I won't come back. I'll come back to see you whenever I have time."
Zhang Mu comforted her.
"It's settled then. Don't try to fool your mother. Ever since you were old enough to understand, you haven't been close to your mother and don't care about your mother's feelings at all."
Su Yun complained.
Zhang Mu felt a little embarrassed. He wouldn't have felt anything if his memories hadn't been awakened, but once they were, he would no longer be a child's soul but an adult's.
At most, she would whine and ask Su Yun for help with some special matters.
But getting any closer would be inappropriate; he's not that lewd, using a child's body to take advantage of him.
"Don't worry, Mother, when have I ever lied to you?"
"That's good..."
Su Yun didn't say anything more. She had always respected Zhang Mu's decision and doted on him.
So the next day, Zhang Lin hired a carriage to take Zhang Mu to Qingyun Sect.
Qingyun Sect is not far from the Zhang family, only a little over 100 kilometers away. It would take two or three days to get there by carriage.
P.S.: It's completely dead. Nobody's been reading it these past few days. The rating went up for a day and then plummeted. Sigh… Everyone's gone after school started… It's so tough. When will I get some traffic again? And nobody's recommending books to me (???)
