Chapter 657: Chapter 299 Martial Will

In the hall, Xie Xinsu had tears in her eyes.

The Foundation Establishment Spirit Object thrown into the trash, she felt heartbroken.

She resented being a powerless cat.

She also despised the cold, heartless man who was ignorant of its value like a bumpkin.

Probably got his brains rattled from practicing martial arts too much.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Xie Xinsu looked towards the door, drained of energy.

With the Foundation Establishment Spirit Object gone, the spiritual energy inside the room had grown faint and more elusive.

However, with Xie Xinsu’s former strength and knowledge as a Yuan Pill cultivator, she still sensed that the magic artifact she had felt earlier was still there.

Qi Yuan came out of the house, opened the door, and looked at the young man outside, yawning, "Who are you looking for?"

"May I come in and sit for a while?" The man outside was naturally Luo Ping.

This time, he came alone.

All his subordinates were left at Yang Shan’s home.

"Sure." Qi Yuan eyed the stranger and answered casually.

His response slightly surprised Luo Ping.

If it were him being visited by a random man asking to sit down, he would certainly ask for the purpose.

But when thinking the other person might be mentally ill, everything seemed reasonable and normal.

Luo Ping entered the room, his gaze sweeping over the place, then settled down next to the sofa.

He introduced himself, "My name is Luo Ping. Two months ago, I was... just an ordinary civil servant.

You know, I never had a mother-in law, so I met with a high-ranking official, yes, a very high-ranking official.

Then, that official’s wife became my mother-in-law.

Life is... so capricious. It gives hope and swells pride, but actually... I lived with extreme caution, afraid of losing everything."

While at his father-in-law’s house, Luo Ping always appeared full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.

But only he knew the feeling of dancing on the edge of a knife, anxious and tortured.

After all, he used to live an ordinary but safe and joyful life, free from worries.

In this life, however, he could be called Brother Lvbing.

"And then?" Qi Yuan glanced at Luo Ping.

Not far away, Xie Xinsu looked at Luo Ping with eyes that seemed to scream "pretentious."

"You and I... could be considered the same kind of people, or rather, half the same.

Qi Yuan... aren’t you curious why you, a year from now, died... only to be sent back to the present?"

Luo Ping had once again found the feeling of being in control of everything.

Before Qi Yuan could respond, Xie Xinsu’s cat neck tensed.

Return... to the present?

Wait... is this person also a Rebooter?

The cold, indifferent master who doesn’t recognize treasures is also one?

If he is, why did he toss the Foundation Establishment Spirit Object like garbage?

"I come from the future, and people generally call us Rebooters.

And you... are indeed one of us.

But... you never lived to see ten years later, you died just a year from now.

So, you don’t know what happened in the world over the next ten years.

It’s a pity, and it means that you don’t really qualify as a Rebooter," Luo Ping said calmly.

Looking at Qi Yuan, he saw his own reflection; in some ways, he was somewhat envious of Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan looked at Luo Ping, "So, you’re a Rebooter?"

At this moment, Xie Xinsu seemed to understand something as well.

Qi Yuan was indeed a Rebooter.

But regrettably, he would die after a year.

That’s probably why he chose the Martial Path, not the Immortal Path.

Suddenly, she felt that Qi Yuan was even more pitiful than she was.

"Do you want to follow me?" At that moment, Luo Ping spoke up tentatively.

Although Qi Yuan, as an incomplete Rebooter, didn’t quite qualify to work with him, Luo Ping was willing to give Qi Yuan a chance.

"Follow you to work?" Qi Yuan laughed and shook his head, "Working for someone else is out of the question for this lifetime. This laid-back lifestyle, playing games every day, practicing martial arts once in a while, you can’t imagine how great it is!"

Qi Yuan’s refusal was swift.

How could he possibly work for someone else?

And what of it, if he’s a Rebooter?

No matter how impressive the title, aren’t they just NPCs in a game?

The very existence of NPCs is to let Qi Yuan have fun.

Hearing Qi Yuan’s reply, Luo Ping’s heart felt a mix of regret and contentment.

"Your kind of life does indeed seem enviable," Luo Ping nodded, "If that’s the case, I won’t disturb you any further, and neither will other Rebooters."

After exchanging a few casual words with Qi Yuan in the room, Luo Ping’s mood was quite emotional.

His current life may be remarkable, but Qi Yuan’s kind... was also desirable.

However, after becoming a Rebooter, even if he wanted to take it easy... he just couldn’t.

If he didn’t progress, if he didn’t grow stronger, he might just be crushed.

Qi Yuan didn’t have this pressure. In some way, that was a kind of fortune.

Before leaving, Luo Ping looked at Qi Yuan with a smile in his eyes, "I’ll wish you champion of the Martial Arts competition then!"

After saying that, Luo Ping left Qi Yuan’s room without looking back, as if saying goodbye to his past self.

After Luo Ping left, Qi Yuan sat on the couch petting the cat, a serene expression on his face, "Having a mental health certification is good, pretending to be mentally ill... is much more enjoyable."

Upon hearing this, Xie Xinsu rolled her eyes.

She really wanted to tell Qi Yuan that he wasn’t pretending to be mentally ill, he was actually mentally ill.

In the following days, everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

The robot Lingyi forced Xie Xinsu to shoot videos every day, leaving her with no interest in cultivating.

Because of this, every day, Xie Xinsu thought about turning the tables and becoming the master.
