Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 562: Decision 562

Su Yuanyuan nodded, ”Thank you, but you can just tell me directly, I’ll go by myself.”

”I’ll still take you there. You’re definitely carrying a lot of stuff with you, we’ll drive there, and of course, you can keep the car.”

”No need.” Driving attracts too much attention, and I don’t have much to do. I won’t need a car.

Hu Zi came back with food. He still doesn’t know what happened after he left.

Su Yuanyuan just had a steamed bun and a bowl of hot water.

After eating, the three of them left.

In the car, the two talked about the topic from earlier.

Hu Zi was startled, ”Did sister-in-law remember something?”

Daqing sighed, ”Even if she remembered something, as long as she doesn’t say it, what can we do?”

It’s indeed like that; if she keeps it to herself, who would know?

”You two continue with your tasks, I’ll take sister-in-law over and arrange things there.”

Daqing implied he didn’t want Su Yuanyuan to go to the village where the boss had an accident.

At Tan Shaoting’s place, after the four father and sons cried, they all changed, most noticeably, the children focused more on their cultivation.

Watching the children like this made Tan Shaoting feel very uncomfortable, as if he were burning the candle at both ends.

However, the more anxious he was about this, the more restless he became.

The children, although they’ve embarked on their cultivation journey, still didn’t practice fasting because after all, they were still young and their bodies were most important.

That day, while having a meal and watching the silent three children, Tan Shaoting sighed in his heart, ”After eating, Dad will take you to Wolf Tooth Mountain.

This cultivation isn’t just about training the body, but also nurturing the mind.

You also need combat experience, and I see that your swordsmanship is decent, but it lacks killing intent.

Today we’re going to Wolf Tooth Mountain, you’re going to contend with the Gale Rabbit and the Silver Moon Wolf, both are first-rank demon beasts, and you’ll test your cultivation progress from this period.”

If it were before, the three children would be excited, talking and laughing, and asked questions immediately. But not today, they just nodded and continued eating.

Tan Shaoting was waiting for the time, waiting for an opportunity to see if they could go back now.

He knew in his heart that the possibility was very slim. But not trying would leave him uncompromised.

After the father and three sons finished eating, they left the workshop together.

Last time someone followed them, and this time was no different. However, the cultivator’s level this time was higher than before.

”You three try to release your Divine Sense to see if you can detect anything.”

After a while, all three shook their heads.

”The cultivation technique of your Divine Sense needs more practice, this will be your greatest assistance when we return.”

”Understood,” the three children nodded very obediently.

”Even leaving the city this time, someone is following us. You need to understand: as long as there are people, there will be conflict, especially in the Cultivation World, where every minute and second there’s contention — contention with heaven, which is about transcending the Five Elements, and with people, which is about the scarce resources.

Even contending with demon beasts is about resources. So, we live in a world of conflict.”

”Dad, I understand, I will work hard.”

”Working hard is necessary, but you also have to use your brain and have your own trump cards.

When you reach the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation, you can look at your own jade scroll.”

Tan Shaoting didn’t look at the children’s jade scrolls, he knew that even if he did, the children wouldn’t feel distanced from him, and even if they contained powerful cultivation techniques or skills, he had no intention of taking them for himself.

But he didn’t look, just to tell the children, even as close as father and son, or blood-related siblings, should have their own secrets.

The four of them boarded the Flying Boat, though this little thing was slow, it was indeed suitable for their family.

”Dad, this time I don’t want to stay in the array; I want to watch from outside.”

Tan Shaoting shook his head, ”One more thing: never be arrogant. You need to know that life only happens once. This time, there’s someone with the cultivation of the Qi Cultivation Tenth Layer and one at the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation following us. They are not something you can deal with.

If you ever encounter them alone in the future, you must flee. Only by keeping your life can you plan for the future.”

Qi Yan lowered his head in shame. ”Dad, I won’t do it again in the future.”

”You three must remember, we need to go back, go back to find your mom. She’s waiting for us.

So, you must take care of yourselves, let’s work together.”

All three nodded. Last time made them all equally heartbroken, and they clearly understood in their hearts. Their mom must be in trouble.

That’s why they were scared, scared they wouldn’t see their mother again. So they worked hard, striving to make themselves strong, to find the way back.

Tan Shaoting knew what the children were thinking, and how could he not think the same? But this made him lose calmness, making it hard for him to settle down.

Different from the children, their minds were pure, but he feared that they would become too extreme, so he thought of taking them out more in the future.

Tan Shaoting firmly believed they could definitely go back, so during this time, it wasn’t just about training. It was rare to have this opportunity to show the children the world, lest they come for nothing.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, Tan Shaoting put away the Flying Boat. The four of them entered the mountain.

Because he just wanted to train them, they didn’t go deep.

”Use your Divine Sense to find your own prey.”

This was also a good way of training.

Qi Yan and the others discussed it a bit, as they had no actual combat experience, they decided to go together first, so they could help each other.

Tan Shaoting nodded; this arrangement was very good, after all, they were siblings, and their cooperation would be very harmonious.

Tan Shaoting didn’t speak, just followed behind them. This was also a form of protection for them, and when they got used to it, he would leave. Although he wouldn’t truly leave, he couldn’t let them always rely on him.

The three of them encountered a first-rank Silver Moon Wolf.

Although both were first-rank, the damage capabilities of a Silver Moon Wolf and Gale Rabbit were not on the same level.

Tan Shaoting watched the three children start off a bit nervous, even glancing back at him once; he didn’t say anything, just stood there watching them.

”We need to stay calm. The Silver Moon Wolf is just first-rank. We’re already at the Third Level of Qi Cultivation. As long as we coordinate well, we can definitely take it down.”

Qi Yan quickly encouraged his younger siblings. They couldn’t afford to be timid at the start.

The Silver Moon Wolf was not big, but even so, it was still much larger than the three little ones.

All three drew out their wooden swords, with Qi Yan charging forward first.

Even though they were at the Third Level of Qi Cultivation, their strength was still lacking.
