One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

【”Lingyue, if two hearts are always united, what need is there to be together day and night?”】

【Li Lingyue was understanding.】

【She wasn’t reluctant to part with you, but there was one question she had always wanted to ask.】

【”Have we met before? When I was very young?”】

【You nodded gently, then kissed her forehead one last time, vanishing before her eyes the next second.】

【Li Lingyue stepped out of the cave and shouted toward the sky.】

【”Chen Yi! When we meet again! I will have grown strong enough to fight by your side!!”】

【Cauldron Realm.】

【The Artifact Spirit of the Mountain River Armor had arrived.】

【Because it only had a rudimentary form, it was completely transparent and flickered in and out of existence, as if it might disappear at any moment.】【Demon Refining Pot: ”Aiyoyoyo!! A Great Dao Immortal Artifact! That cold and aloof temperament, those exquisite patterns, that powerful aura! So, so, so, so, so classic!】

【Ten Thousand Souls Banner: ”Stop sucking up. This one that’s come is a mute.”】

【Nine Crows Divine Bow: ”A mute! A fool! A lunatic! A villain! A eunuch!”】

【You also entered the Cauldron Realm.】

【”Mountain River Armor, soak in the Star Source.”】

【Da Chun shifted a little in the Star Source pit to make room for the Mountain River Armor.】

【The Qiankun Mirror complained loudly.】

【”Mommy! We’re adding another person? Is this a bathhouse? There’s no more room!”】

【The Ten Thousand Souls Banner huffed angrily.】

【”Exactly, exactly! Even I, the big senior brother, can only drink some soup by the edge of the pool, and I’ve never had a proper soak yet! Newcomer, get in line!”】

【The Star Source could repair Great Dao Immortal Artifacts, and of course, it could also repair the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.】

【However, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner had the path of refining souls for self-repair.】

【And the self-repair process for Great Dao Immortal Artifacts was far too slow. You might be dead before it recovered even a few percent.】

【So, the Star Source had to be prioritized for the Great Dao Immortal Artifacts.】

【Of course, that old fellow the Ten Thousand Souls Banner would never be so well-behaved.】

【Whenever there was an opportunity, he would either trick Da Chun or bully the Qiankun Mirror. In short, he always found a way to sneak in for a soak.】

【As long as this kid didn’t go too far, you turned a blind eye.】

【Your next stop was to find your third brother-in-law, Shen Qingshan.】

【It was time to put him in power!】

【Returning from the Southern Borderlands to the Central Plains, you stepped on the improved Star Shuttle at full speed, so you arrived before long.】

【Based on memories from the previous simulation, you knew that at this point, Shen Qingshan had been promoted because you had given him the credit for the Feng Yucheng case.】

【He was now serving as a Chief Banner Officer in the Baling Prefecture’s Prefectural Demon Slaying Division.】

【You went directly into the prefectural city, covering the entire city with your Divine Sense.】

【”There are only two or three people at the Spirit Condensation Realm in this prefectural city...”】

【You couldn’t help but marvel at how quickly your own strength had increased.】

【Great Qian’s administrative divisions had three levels: province, prefecture, and county. If the capital and the secondary capital were also counted as a level, then it was four levels.】

【Aside from the martial artists in the sects, most other martial artists generally followed the pattern of gathering in larger cities.】

【The more prosperous a place, the more experts it had, and the martial arts families there were also stronger.】

【With your current strength at the Martial King Realm, you could swagger even at the provincial level, let alone this prefectural city.】

【After finishing his official duties, Shen Qingshan dragged his slightly weary body, riding a horse and carrying a saber, returning to his residence.】

【Third Sister Chen Yun greeted him at the door.】

【”Husband, why do you look so tired? Are you feeling unwell?”】

【Shen Qingshan let out a bitter laugh.】

【”I thought that coming to the prefectural city as a Chief Banner Officer would let me kill more demons, but there aren’t more demons. Instead, there’s a huge pile of trivial official matters.”】

【”If you’re not happy with this job, husband, we can resign and return to Baiyun County.”】

【Life wasn’t easy, and Shen Qingshan sighed.】

【”I need this job to obtain cultivation resources, and the family needs my salary to live. I can stop cultivating, but I don’t want you and our daughter’s lives to get worse and worse.”】

【Just then, your voice came from the air.】

【”Brother-in-law! I’ll give you a third option!”】

【You descended from the sky, stunning Shen Qingshan.】

【”F-Fourth Brother? Were you just flying in the air just now?”】

【You neither confirmed nor denied it.】

【Shen Qingshan stood frozen like a wooden chicken.】

【Chen Yun, however, didn’t feel that way. Seeing you again only made her happy.】

【”Fourth Brother, you’re finally back! Where have you been all these years? Have you been living well? Have you been hurt?”】

【Your family doesn’t care how high you fly; they only care if you’re tired from flying.】

【”Third Sister, I’ve come back this time to offer a great fortune to brother-in-law...”】

【You directly stated your intention and informed them about Shen Qingshan’s special physique and everything about the Shen Family of the Starry Domains, including the Founding Ancestor Shen’s secret of soul-seizing.】

【The amount of information was too much, and Shen Qingshan was momentarily overwhelmed.】

【”I’m from the Dust Lineage of the Shen Family of the Starry Domains? I have a Dual-Soul Sacred Physique? The Shen Family Founding Ancestor wants to seize my body?”】

【”It’s not seizing your body; it’s becoming one with you!

You are still you, and he is still him, but the two of you can be regarded as one person!

How should I put it...

You can think of it as you gaining a Martial God-level ’old grandpa’ cheat, or a ’Pharaoh’ who is terrifyingly good at playing cards!”】

【Well, the way you said it made Shen Qingshan even more confused. He had never read web novels or any manga where all problems were solved by playing cards.】

【”In short, as long as you are willing to go.

From now on, you are the Shen Family Founding Ancestor, you are the Martial God, and the entire Starry Domain forces will be yours!

The worldly troubles will no longer concern you, and Third Sister and Shen Jia will live a carefree life!”】

【Shen Qingshan raised his hand and touched his forehead.】

【”Let me take a moment to process this...”】

【Shen Qingshan thought it over for three days.】

【You took this time to rest a little.】

【In the end, you found that the point he was struggling with was what would happen to his family after he left.】

【Even if what you said was true, he wouldn’t become the Shen Family Founding Ancestor in the blink of an eye. There were still many things to go through.】

【”Bring Third Sister and Shen Jia with you! Your whole family will go to the Starry Domains together! Is there anyone else you want to bring? Even that big yellow dog in the yard can ascend together!”】

【Shen Qingshan was dumbfounded by your domineering attitude.】

【”Didn’t you say that this Mirror Wielder selection only allowed me to go up alone and participate? I couldn’t bring my family?”】

【You smiled slightly.】

【”That was before.”】

【”There’s one more small problem... If I become the Shen Family Founding Ancestor, will my wife’s husband have become a different person?”】

【”Founding Ancestor Shen is a ’science freak.’ He spent thirty thousand years studying the Way. People like him have long lost interest in love and romance. When you’re facing Third Sister, he definitely won’t come out to disturb you.”】

【Shen Qingshan had no more worries.】

【With such a massive opportunity laid before him, he also wanted to give it a try.】

【Before leaving, Shen Qingshan decided to resign first.】

【Although you didn’t think it was necessary, Shen Qingshan had a strong sense of responsibility.】

【He felt that occupying the position of Chief Banner Officer with over a dozen Small Banner Officers under him, and leaving without a word, would cause trouble for the Demon Slaying Division.】

【”Resign? Shen Qingshan, are you holding a grudge just because I gave you a few public reprimands a few days ago? Do you think the Demon Slaying Division is your family outhouse? Come and go as you please?!”】

【The Prefectural Demon Slaying Division’s Chief Commissioner looked at Shen Qingshan in the hall below, barely concealing his anger.】
