Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

I turned around and looked at who it was that was so provocative. I recognized the voice for some reason. The man who said this looked at me provocatively.

"I wonder, how did you survive so long in the cave? That too, when you were injured. I thought that you would die in there. But it looks like cockroaches will always find a way to survive, somehow." he laughed.

The moment he said this, memories rushed into my head. I could see that I was talking with this man, and he took me to the forest for fun. Then, he stabbed me in the back and he threw me in the cave that I was trapped in. He blocked the cave with a boulder and left me there to die!

"Cai Yanlin, you bastard," I growled.

"How could you call me that? I am the person who was supposed to ease your suffering. Now look, you have to keep living in this horrible world." he said, shaking his head.

There were a few goons next to him, looking at me with eyes of contempt.

"What are you going to do now? Fight? Come on. I know that you want to fight me." Cai Yanlin smiled. He raised his hand and gestured at me to come at him.

I shook my head.

"The Cai family might be powerful, and you might be the young master of the Cai family, but you are far from the actual representative. I met your sister, the actual young lady of the Cai family. She really is a great person. I think that the Cai family is bound to grow leaps and bounds in her discretion. But where does that leave you? Just a stupid henchman for the family. Looks like you are just a goon of the family." I said, shaking my head.

Cai Yanlin's face turned ugly immediately. He looked at me with anger. I clearly struck a chord. He turned away with anger and started walking away.

"Look at that! The young master Cai Yanlin is nothing more than a coward. The moment that he knows that he is going to lose, even in a match of words, he runs away!" I shouted, and everyone around looked at me and him. Some even snickered.

"You dare?! Last time, we might not have succeeded, but this time it will not be so simple." his henchman growled at me.

"The Cai family will protect your young master. But seeing that you have threatened me, do you think that the Cai family will protect you? Will it be worth it? Think about it. He is just a young master, but his father is powerful to warrant protection. You two are worthless to the Cai family. Bark one more time and I will make sure that you are put down." I said as I turned around as well.

"You will also go to the martial gathering. There, we shall see what will happen to you. I really want to see how you will fare. The whole city will chew you and spit you out." Cai Yanlin shouted at me, but I disregarded that.

The martial gathering wasn't going to be that hard as long as I was prepared. I took a deep breath. Nothing was going as I had hoped. I came here for a nice and relaxing time, and all that I got was some fool who had succeeded in killing this body once before. It only helped worsen the problem.

"Oh well. Let us just go home and practice a little. I think that I should practice the fifth strike a little more." I thought to myself as I walked back home. I glanced at the bathhouse, which was on the way back. There was a huge path formed by two lines of men. Bodyguards, I assumed. I stopped for a minute. Maybe, the man who was so important would come out now. I really wanted to see who it was.

A small crowd was already beginning to form, and everyone was interested to see who would warrant such fanfare. I could hear that someone was coming out. There was an old man, and the moment that he came out, I saw his eyes. They glinted for a moment, and immediately, I felt a sharp pain in my forehead.

Aaagrh!

I shouted with pain. I staggered back, trying to regain balance.

"Who is it that disturbs the great master?" one of the bodyguards shouted, looking at the crowd that I was a part of. The crowd had no intention of protecting me. They split apart, and I remained in the center, visible to all. I could see the old man, walking towards me slowly. He had a faint smile on his face.

He walked up to me and tapped me on my shoulder.

"You have Zhiqui's scent on you. It seems that you are a lucky man," he said, smiling.

"You are her master? Are you an alchemist as well? Is that why they are treating you with such honor?" I asked.

"Who do you think you are, asking the great master questions?" the bodyguard who spoke before stepped up once again.

"Calm down. This boy interests me quite a bit." the old man smiled. "Yes. I am an alchemist. Looking at your hands, I think that you are also one of them. I heard that a few Qi Condensation Pills and a few others have appeared in this city. I was curious, but to think that a child would be the one responsible. Truly marvelous. Do you also wish to become my disciple? I guarantee, no one will be able to touch you if you become my disciple." the old man smiled.

Everyone around looked at me with envy. The bodyguard was shocked, his mouth agape. Getting an offer like this was once in a lifetime. But it was not meant for me.

"The path of alchemy is not the one that I wish to walk in this lifetime. I want to become a martial artist. Alchemy is just a side profession to help me out. I am sorry, but I will have to decline your offer. Maybe our paths will cross in the future once more." I shook my head and I tried to leave.

"You are Liu Qian's son, are you not? I am a little acquainted with your little situation... I may be able to help you out of it."
