Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

"You brat, you are lucky I am not in the mood now. Otherwise, I would spank you silly," she said with a cold tone, but Minghao could see her lips curled upward into a smile.

"I knew it. There is no way a man can break my sister's heart. If anything, I pity any man that ends up with you; it will be great if they can even survive one night…."

BAM! Mingyue hit Minghao on the head.

"Ouch, now that is the Sis I know," Minghao said while laughing, his hand raised up, touching a new bump that appeared on his head.

"You silly brat, why do you always love getting beaten up by me?" Mingyue said while shaking her head, but the smile on her face told a different story.

She knew Minghao did it on purpose to cheer her up; this made her feel better.

Turning her gaze back to the clear sky, Mingyue said, "Sometimes I envy those who cannot cultivate, Minghao. Even though they live filled with danger and helplessness, at least they can have real friends and family.

Compared to us cultivators, we kill and plunder all for immortality, but what does that leave us? Just see how our family situation is now."

"Sis, since when did you become a philosopher like this? You may not know, but actually, I don't see any difference between cultivators and commoners other than our level of strength.

Even commoners have ungrateful people who sell their own families for fortune. What difference is that with cultivators looking for treasure?"

"You are right. There is no difference. In the end, we have no choice but to be cold and merciless to our enemies."

Mingyue then turned her gaze towards Minghao and patted him on the head.

"You are kind, Minghao. I hope you will never turn your back on others.

If anyone blocks your path, you should kill them without mercy; it's better than being stabbed in the back because you dropped your guard."

Minghao could see the pain in his sister's eyes. Even though he didn't know what really happened, Minghao could vaguely guess.

"Sis, I disagree with that. Ancestor also often tells me that I must become cruel and merciless to my enemies… but... I just cannot do it."

His gaze turned distant, "Even today, our cousin's face begging for mercy still appears in my dreams, sis."

His words made Mingyue feel guilty since she was the one forcing him to do it, "As time passes, you will get used to it, Minghao."

Minghao shook his head, his gaze then turned resolute.

"No! I know myself, sis. I will never get used to it. Then I questioned myself, why can't I just live the way I want?

After much thought, I realized it was because I was weak.

If I am strong, I don't need to worry about someone stabbing me in my back since I am strong enough to withstand it.

I don't need to worry about my family fighting for limited resources since I am strong enough to provide for them."

"But that won't change the fact that they have bad intentions, Minghao. People don't change that easily."

"I know, sis, but I have seen the example of it."

"Who?"

"It's me, sis. You always beat me up every time I did something wrong, to the point that I lost count of how many times it happened. And sis, I will be honest, I have resented you for this.

But when mom left the family and everyone started bullying me, that is when I realized it. Everything you do is for my own good.

If not because of your beating, I would have already broken down by all the pressure.

I always question myself, what would sis do in my position, how would sis endure… that is what allows me to keep moving on, sis."

Minghao paused for a moment, then continued. "So I know, even if they are bad people, I will just beat them up, again and again, until the point their body will ache with pain every time they think something bad."

"You brat, it seems you have grown up. That is not wrong, but if you want to do that, you need to become the strongest Minghao. Only by becoming the strongest can you live as you please," Mingyue said while ruffling over his hair.

"I know my talent is not as good as yours, sis. Ancestor also says so, but who says we cannot break our limit? Limitation only exists if you let them!" Minghao said with words filled with pride.

Seeing her brother having his own conviction made Mingyue smile. "Well said, brat. Where did you learn this?"

"Cough, I learned from the anime movie you showed me, sis."

"Don't tell me it's the one you tried to imitate before."

Minghao quickly stood up from where he sat, "I need to go practice again; see you later, sis." He quickly ran away from Mingyue, making her let out a chuckle.

As he ran away, Minghao then realized something was different in his attire. On both his wrists and ankles, there was something attached.

With Mingyue's sharp eyes, she recognized it; it was made with Densium, a unique metal that is very heavy even with its small size.

Densium, the size of someone's head, can easily weigh up to a ton. Based on the reflection of the metal, Mingyue could guess its purity.

With Vesa's help doing the calculation, a single one of his bracelets would weigh around 50 kg (110 pounds), with all four totaling 200 kg (440 pounds).

That is far more weight than what he should be able to carry with his current cultivation level.

"It seems you are not just all talk, Minghao. Don't worry; your sis will give you a path to break free of your own limitations in the future.

But for now, show me if you can do it by yourself or not, breaking your limit…"
