Chapter 2: Bankruptcy Version Law of Heaven and Earth

~7 min read 1,395 words

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's vigorous tone.

Chen Jiaojiao was stunned, taking a long moment to react, and her face flushed red in an instant.

She looked at Wang Jianqiang in disbelief.

"How could you propose such a condition!"

"You~ you are my uncle's good friend, after all."

Wang Jianqiang curled his lips.

"Now you know I'm your uncle's good friend? Why didn't you think of that when you were badmouthing me to others before?"

Chen Jiaojiao's expression changed upon hearing this.

She looked at the old man before her with his graying hair and wrinkled face, her heart full of resistance.

She wanted to refuse, but she wanted even less to lose Wang Jianqiang as a source of free resources.

In the end, being mature for her age, she decided to prioritize her career.

……

A cup of tea's time later.

Wang Jianqiang walked out from the door, his face turning dark, "I haven't even used it in this lifetime, why is it not working?"

His expression flickered between light and shadow, his heart filled with unwillingness.

Suddenly, he thought of the system he had just awakened, as if grabbing a life-saving straw; with a thought, his consciousness entered his Soul Sea.

At this moment, a huge light screen was suspended within the Soul Sea.

"Name: Wang Jianqiang

Gender: Male

Age: 95/100

Root Bone: Five-Element Waste Spirit Root

Talent Divine Ability: None

Cultivation: Qi Refining Third Layer"

"This is~~ an Attribute Panel?"

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, and immediately after, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind again.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the Newcomer Care Package, do you wish to open it?"

Wang Jianqiang was overjoyed.

There was actually a gift package?

"Yes." He silently thought without hesitation.

"Ding, Newcomer Care Package opened."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Epic Grade Talent Divine Ability 'Bankruptcy Version Law of Heaven and Earth'."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 Cultivation Points."

As the mechanical system voice faded, Wang Jianqiang discovered that a line of text had appeared behind the "Talent Divine Ability" column on the Attribute Panel in his mind.

"Bankruptcy Version Law of Heaven and Earth: Epic Grade, can freely change body size; after changing, physique is enhanced. Current awakening level is primary, physique increased by 1 time."

Below that was another line of smaller text, "Talent Divine Ability grade classification: Bronze Grade, Silver Grade, Gold Grade, Platinum Grade, Epic Grade, Legendary, God Grade."

According to the Supernatural Ability grade classification described in the system, Epic Grade was already considered a very high-level Talent Divine Ability.

Immediately, Wang Jianqiang's attention fell to the top right corner of the Attribute Panel, where there was a line of small text.

"Cultivation Points: 50"

As Wang Jianqiang's attention shifted, the attribute page changed, and a sub-page popped up.

There were three rows of text on the page.

"Cultivation Points can be used to add points to cultivation techniques, spells, and auxiliary abilities; each Cultivation Point is equivalent to one year of hard cultivation. (Note: Based on the host's own current cultivation speed)"

"Cultivation Points can be obtained through daily hard cultivation; 1 hard cultivation session grants 1 Cultivation Point."

"All the above terms are subject to the final interpretation of this system."

Seeing the function of the Cultivation Points, Wang Jianqiang was pleasantly surprised; the first thing he thought of was "charge for one minute, talk for two hours."

And these Cultivation Points were even more exaggerated.

One session of hard cultivation grants one year of cultivation time; this was simply a cultivation artifact!

As for that damn right of interpretation.

He had seen it plenty of times in his past life and was already used to it.

"Wang Jianqiang, you aren't thinking of going back on your word, are you?"

Just then, a vigilant voice reached Wang Jianqiang's ears.

Wang Jianqiang came back to his senses.

He discovered that Chen Jiaojiao was staring at him, her pretty face icy cold.

"Wang Jianqiang, I have already met your conditions; if you dare to go back on your word, don't blame me for not remembering our old friendship."

After walking out of the room, Chen Jiaojiao saw Wang Jianqiang suddenly stop, staring at her expressionlessly without saying a word, and his expression seemed off, so she thought Wang Jianqiang wanted to renege.

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, then immediately reacted.

It seemed that his moment of distraction just now had caused Chen Jiaojiao to misunderstand.

He looked at Chen Jiaojiao, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly discovered that another Attribute Panel had appeared in his mind.

"Name: Chen Jiaojiao

Gender: Female

Age: 35 years old"

Root Bone: Metal-Wood-Earth Three-Element Spirit Root

Cultivation: Qi Refining Sixth Layer

Current Good and Evil Value: -10"

This system can actually view other people's data?

Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat pleasantly surprised in his heart.

Especially the Good and Evil Value, which could allow him to easily judge whether others had malicious intent toward him; it was incredibly practical.

Thinking of this, Wang Jianqiang was in a great mood; he did not fuss over Chen Jiaojiao's terrible attitude, merely shaking his head.

"Jiaojiao, you've misunderstood. I, Wang Jianqiang, have always been a man of my word; how could I possibly go back on it?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Chen Jiaojiao's expression softened slightly, "Uncle Wang, don't blame me for my bad attitude just now; I was just so focused on the bond between us that I became this agitated."

"Can things between us still be like they were before?"

Focused on the bond?

If she were so focused, would her Good and Evil Value be negative?

Wang Jianqiang sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he wore a smiling expression, "Sure."

Seeing that he had only nodded and said nothing more, Chen Jiaojiao frowned, her slender eyebrows knitting together, "Uncle Wang, since you have already forgiven me, you must help me with the matter of the Pill."

"Pill? What Pill?" Wang Jianqiang looked at Chen Jiaojiao in astonishment.

Chen Jiaojiao's expression stiffened, and she forced a smile, "Uncle Wang, stop teasing me. Haven't we already agreed? As long as I fulfill your conditions, you will still be my uncle in the future."

"That's right, you can continue to call me uncle in the future." Wang Jianqiang nodded.

"Then what about the Pill?"

"What Pill?"

A flash of anxiety crossed Chen Jiaojiao's face, "Weren't my cultivation resources in the past all provided by you?"

"You said it yourself, that was in the past." Wang Jianqiang shrugged.

Chen Jiaojiao's pretty face turned cold, "Are you playing me?"

Wang Jianqiang still wore a faint smile on his face, "You've wronged me there. I promised to forgive you after you fulfilled my conditions, but I don't seem to have said anything about continuing to provide you with cultivation resources, did I?"

Chen Jiaojiao's expression faltered, becoming unsightly.

It seemed Wang Jianqiang really hadn't said that.

But then what was the point of her agreeing to Wang Jianqiang's conditions just now?

Simply to get Wang Jianqiang to forgive her and call him uncle?

Pfft~

If it weren't for the fact that Wang Jianqiang could provide her with resources, who the hell would want to have anything to do with this piece of trash?

"Ding, Good and Evil Value decreased."

Following a mechanical voice that rang out in Wang Jianqiang's mind, Chen Jiaojiao's Good and Evil Value toward him dropped to -55.

According to the system's definition of Good and Evil Value, a positive number represents favor, while a negative number represents disgust.

A Good and Evil Value between 0 and -50 simply represents disgust and does not reach the level of taking action.

But once the value reaches below -50, it means the other party might act against him at any time.

Yet Wang Jianqiang did not feel the slightest worry.

Private fighting is strictly forbidden within the Hehuan Sect; unless Chen Jiaojiao wanted to die, she would never dare to touch a hair on his head.

The smile on his face never faded in the slightest from beginning to end, "Don't be angry. You want resources? That's easy, Uncle can give them to you."

Chen Jiaojiao's expression shifted, though she still looked at him coldly.

Wang Jianqiang rubbed his hands together.

"One Gathering Spirit Pill, and we do it again."
