Cultivation, but I’d rather be a weakling

”So Feng Leng, you have 3 dao partners? ”

”W-what are you talking about t-teacher Yu! ” The three girls blush and Feng Leng ears erupt with heat fuming out and squirms around.

”Haha don worry about it. Many people have a harem. Be sure to take responsibility. ”

Seeing as Feng Leng was actually serious about all the girls he decided to stop pursuing the matter. Although he disliked harems due to their bloody fights and arguments, Feng Leng looked like he could actually make the girls that liked him happy.

It was a strange thought for Hao Yu. No matter what harem he looked at, there were always issues. Some would complain that they spend too much time with one person, some would favor someone else more which causes jealousy. He thought back to the question his student made in class. ”When are you going to get married? ”

It feels impossible, but in this world there is no certainty. If he truly were to get married, he would want to have a single wife. It would be good if she was average. Of course beautiful women are something every man desires, but with great fortune comes great misfortune. Plus he wouldn want to handle more than one lover, it would just be so tiresome.

Hao Yu looked at the 4 of them. They must have gone through a lot to be where they are now. Thats right, I shouldn be too negative about this. Who knows what the future will hold. In that case I should support him so that he doesn steer from the wrong path. That is what a teacher should do.

”So, why have you come to visit me? ”

”Ah right! You almost made me forget teacher Yu. ” he opens his storage from his ring and takes out a two hundred pills. ”Teacher Yu, your cultivation is low so I made you some pills. ”

”I can accept them… ” Hao Yu looked at the pills in disdain, remembering all the pills he had chugged down in the past.

Although to Feng Leng, Hao Yu just had a indifferent look.

As expected of teacher, he doesn even view these top-grade pills very much. I have to become even better and make him reach the apex with me!

”Please accept them, teacher Yu, in the past you were the only one that never gave up on me. Even when I said that I wanted to become the strongest in all 6 realms, you didn give up! This is something that I owe you. ” His eyes glowed with shimmering lights as he looks at teacher Yu respectfully.

Feeling like this wouldn end if he didn accept, he took it. ”Then I won be a stranger then. ”

Although Hao Yu took it and placed it in his storage ring, he wasn going to cultivate with them. Feng Leng was a legendary alchemist in the top ranks and any of his pills would be able to sell highly.

Hao Yu however, just had no real reason to cultivate anymore, those at the immortal realm and higher stopped aging and the only thing that could kill them is from an external enemy.

Hao yu was grateful for his student who still remembered him even after he had risen to the top, but it made him a little uncomfortable.

It felt like he was being forced to cultivate.

I just want to laze around, why do you have to come every 5 years and give me pills???

”Alright thats all I wanted to tell you teacher Yu…actually teacher Yu…I have a question. ” he hesitantly asked.

”What is it? ”

”How would I know if I made the right decision? ”

Hmm he must have gone through something.

”…Leave behind no regrets Feng Leng. I know you, you were someone that would give it your everything to accomplish your goals. This is why you have reached this far. Just give it everything you have so you don regret it later on. As long as you stay on your Dao path, then you certainly won be bothered by distractions. ”

This is what I learned from Feng leng. The reason why he had gotten this far was not because of talent, backing, or even knowledge. The reason why was that he had grit and ambition. Hes also very arrogant and ruthless sometimes.

”As I thought, speaking with teacher Yu solved all my problems. Alright, I won be bothering you anymore teacher Yu. Goodbye. ” he cupped his hands and bowed. Leaving with the three girls.

…

Once Feng Leng and the three women reached a tavern. Inside was an old man.

Upon seeing Feng Leng he cupped his hands and bowed. ”General, have you decided? ”

”Hmm. Ive decided to lead the rebels and take down the heavenly emperor! ”

Feng Leng had risen through the ranks of the immortal palace. Even though at first he was forced into it, he later found many companions that were people that he would put his life on the line for. The Heavenly Emperor was cold and heartless. To get what he wants, he was willing to kill his own family or his own ministers. There are many corrupt immortals as well and Feng Leng wanted to clean the slate.

Hao Yu didn even know that right now, he was the one that made Feng Leng finally decide to rebel.
