Game Lord's Cultivation System

Chapter 196 Can’t These People Recognize Me?



Yuan Chunhua's lips were visibly trembling when she heard Jiang Ming mentioning love and affection.

"W-What are you trying to imply here?" She asked stutteringly.

"What I mean is that you don't have to brood over what my aunt had offered." Jiang Ming replied calmly. "Forcing one upon another is something I would never do. Hence, you can just treat my aunt's request as air and don't have to keep it in mind."

What he said was genuine and wasn't trying to trap her. He might be lecherous and agree that he was a playboy, but he would never go as low as to force someone to become his lover.

Only fools and vile bastards would resort to such tactics.

"If I really want to make you become my woman, then you can rest assured that I would use action and sincerity to win your heart over." His gaze was fiery as he smiled calmly at Yuan Chunhua.

Meanwhile, Yuan Chunhua felt her heart beating rapidly as she couldn't believe what she had heard.

'Did he just confess to me and proclaim to pursue me?' She thought. She was an instructor that had never encountered romance in her life before. Sure, she might have been pursued by others in the past and even now, but none of them had ever entered her eyes.

However, that couldn't be the same for Jiang Ming since his current demeanor had truly swooned her over briefly.

"Jiang Ming, do you understand what you're talking about?" Yuan Chunhua asked nervously, seemingly hoping that he was just being high and was speaking nonsense.

Jiang Ming nodded his head.

"Of course, for someone as beautiful and mature as you is enough to cause my heart to throb. Not to mention, the interaction and care you have given me has made me look at you as someone I want to be with." He said confidently.

At the same time, his eyes started wandering around as he looked at her carefully, analyzing her clothes and figures.

Yuan Chunhua felt her body temperature rise up upon feeling his intense gaze. She clenched her fist softly as she stood up and said, "Since I have met with Senior Yang Liqin, then I shall not inconvenience you any longer. I'll be heading off first."

With that said, she quickly fled the house and didn't even bother turning around to look at him.

Jiang Ming chuckled softly when he saw her running away like some little girl. He could tell that she had definitely become shy by his direct confession.

As a real man, he would not hide his intention when wanting to pursue someone, unlike some two-faced bastards. Love was never a reasonable thing, to begin with. So why should he try to cower or be embarrassed by wanting to have a relationship?

"Sigh, I'm truly a playboy that can't stop falling in love," Jiang Ming lamented his personality that had been hidden deep in the dark in the past.

With his new look and power that could actually back up his confidence, he couldn't help but do the things that he was always afraid of doing.

Sometime later, Jiang Ming didn't head upstairs to chat with Yang Liqin. She was most likely exhausted and wanted to take a nap.

"Xue Daiyu" Jiang Ming suddenly called out in the empty space. He waited for a few seconds until he noticed a slight fluctuation in the ceiling above him.

"Why are you hiding like some rat, Xue Daiyu?" He asked in confusion. It wasn't like he was going to devour her whole or bully her.

Meanwhile, Xue Daiyu slowly came out from the ceiling as she revealed a pitiful expression.

"Y-Your aunt is too scary…" Xue Daiyu managed to utter those words before covering her face with her hands.

As a house spirit, she was supposed to be domineering and fierce against other cultivators. Yet not only was she unable to fight against Jiang Ming but she also got frightened to death by Yang Liqin's demeanor.

Jiang Ming twitched his mouth when he witnessed Xue Daiyu had become so timid. 'Is aunt really that scary? She's extremely adorable and cute so I want to eat her up daily.' He thought.

Shaking his head to ignore her pitiful state, Jiang Ming held a solemn expression and asked, "How's your cultivation base going on currently? You should have advanced to the third step of the cultivation technique I gave you previously."

Upon hearing his question, Xue Daiyu turned serious and exuded her aura, showing her improvement in the past months.

"I have been cultivating diligently and have not taken a break once, Jiang Ming." She said confidently.

Jiang Ming remained silent as he started circling around her, inspecting every part of her and noting down her improvement in his mind.

'My goodness, this Xue Daiyu not only reached the third step but was on the verge of reaching the fourth step without proper guidance.' Jiang Ming was dumbfounded. He was going to guide her properly this time, but he found it to be unnecessary.

Even without his instruction, with just the technique alone in her mind, Xue Daiyu was clever enough to comprehend the profound meaning behind the texts.

"Is my progress terrible?" Xue Daiyu asked timidly when she saw him keeping silent. Given how she had just experienced the prowess of Yang Liqin, she thought that her talent was inferior and failed to meet his expectations.

Jiang Ming nearly choked on his own saliva. "What do you mean by your progress is terrible? If your progress is considered terrible, then everyone in the Northern Continent should just kill themselves."

He wasn't joking about his words since the cultivation technique he gave her was not some ordinary technique. Without a powerful soul force and talent, one would find it difficult to even comprehend the first step.

"Xue Daiyu, at the rate of your progress, then it wouldn't take a month for you to regain a physical body." He said solemnly.

"I-Is that true?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Jiang Ming laughed as he waved his hand. "In a month's time, I will help refine your physical body. And at that time, you are free to seek vengeance."

If she could produce tears, then she would have filled the living room with tears. Xue Daiyu couldn't help but realize that she could actually get a chance to seek vengeance with her own hands.

Jiang Ming wasn't used to seeing women tearing up so he hurriedly pacified her. "Stop showing a crying expression, Xue Daiyu. You can be considered one of us since you live on the same rooftop as us."

"I'm sorry, but my facial expression wouldn't listen to me."

"Then control it well. I'll be heading out now, and you can rest assured. My aunt isn't someone unreasonable, so as long as you behave properly, you will be safe."

After saying that, Jiang Ming hurriedly ran away from the house.

Once he left the house, Jiang Ming began making his way toward the Moon Bazaar to check on the progress. Although he trusted Hong Ling completely in the management, he wanted to see with his own eyes that she was safe and sound.

Sometime later, Jiang Ming arrived at the location of the Moon Bazaar and he was shocked to disbelief.

The people that crowded the Moon Bazaar had not only decreased but seemed to have increased by tenfold.

"What the heck is going on?" Jiang Ming asked himself. From afar, he could see the frantic people hoping to rush inside the Moon Bazaar, causing the workers in the Moon Bazaar to have a difficult time maintaining order.

His confusion soon cleared up when he heard a passerby start talking behind him.

"Princess Bing Tong had visited the Moon Bazaar. She even publicly patronized the new alchemy pill that Alchemist Ren had successfully refined."

"Sigh, if only we are somewhat prominent cultivators, then we could have squeezed in to have a chance of obtaining the new alchemy pill. I heard that it was able to directly help a cultivator breakthrough its bottleneck."

When Jiang Ming heard those words, he instantly understood the situation. Alchemist Ren must have advanced his alchemy technique and was able to refine a breakthrough pill for those in the Spiritual Lord Realm.

Not to mention, it seemed like Bing Tong had also paid a visit, most likely under the command of Zhao Tong. After all, a pill that can help a cultivator break through their bottleneck in the Spiritual Lord Realm is a miracle in their mind.

Not willing to idle any longer outside, Jiang Ming exuded some of his aura and forcefully pushed the people that were lining up aside.

"Who the hell tries to skip in line?"

"Do you know who my father is? How dare you try to skip ahead!"

Of course, Jiang Ming instantly received backlash from the others that tried to obtain a chance on buying such valuables pills.

'Seriously… I might be an irresponsible owner of the Moon Bazaar, but can't these people recognize me?' Jiang Ming thought when he heard their threats.
