Becoming God With Spirits - Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Little Fanboy and Little Fangirl

Is Senior trying to give us directions?

Upon hearing Zhou Kai’s question, the two of them, who felt more admiration for him, were overjoyed.

Mi Xue was the first to speak. “Brother, I cultivate internal alchemy. I entered the Dao when I was 12 years old. It has now been five years since then, and I have two years’ worth of powers. However, I’m rather stupid and I usually prefer to practice my powers internally. As far as Dao protection magic is concerned, I’ve only studied the Calm Mind, Exorcism, and the Seven-Star Step. I only have a superficial knowledge of them.”

As she said that, her face turned red, evidently showing that she was very embarrassed.

Then, Xu Lei said, “Brother, I cultivate internal alchemy. I entered the Dao when I was 11 years old. It has now been six years since then, and I have over three years’ worth of powers. I have mastered six kinds of Dao protection magic, which are Exorcism, Steel Transformation, Calm Mind, the Seven-Star Step, and the Seven-Star Sword.”

Based on Xu Lei’s past temperament, he would certainly be proud to talk about his own cultivation.

After all, according to what he had learned, although he was not a privileged person, he was on a level that surpassed many of his peers.

However, he didn’t dare think highly of himself in front of a formidable senior. Otherwise, things would get bad if he provoked this senior and made him unhappy.

Zhou Kai blinked, feeling somewhat confused.

F*ck. They even have powers and they have mastered magic!

I don’t know anything. I don’t even know what all your magic is used for even after listening to you guys.

However, Zhou Kai sensed that the two young people in front of him were newbies like him.

No, that’s not right. They should be newer than me, as I’m already an old man who has been through several battles. These two probably have only met a few spirits.

Since they were newbies, they were easy to deal with.

Zhou Kai laughed and said, “All this is only basic cultivation and the most fundamental knowledge. Speaking of which, the department has the most perfect teaching methods, so I don’t need to give you two more lectures and guidance. As long as you follow the procedure, you can definitely stabilize your foundation and have bright prospects.”

Mi Xue and Xu Lei nodded.

The two of them had been studying for more than ten years. Everyone knew that even the chief who was teaching them was only explaining to them what they didn’t know and letting them learn and understand the rest by themselves.

“However, I can share some personal experiences with you two,” Zhou Kai added.

Mi Xue and Xu Lei looked at Zhou Kai expectantly.

Zhou Kai said, “You can chicken out, but your life always comes first.”

Mi Xue was speechless.

Xu Lei was speechless.

Zhou Kai said with a smile, “Do you guys think that this contradicts what I said earlier?”

Upon glancing at the dumbfounded two, Zhou Kai said mysteriously, “Actually, it does not. It seems to contradict my previous words, but in fact, these are two truths on the path of cultivation. The two of you have to keep in mind that when you understand during a special moment in a special environment in the future, you will then be considered qualified cultivators.”

Mi Xue and Xu Lei looked at each other, both finding it impressive even though they didn’t understand it.

The chief was indeed right to let us learn more.

They didn’t know what this senior was talking about. If they were to act rashly, everything might be gone at once.

“Brother, what kind of abilities do you have?” Mi Xue asked, as she couldn’t hold back her curiosity.

Xu Lei looked at Zhou Kai in anticipation.

As newbies, they were very curious about how impressive a true cultivator was.

Zhou Kai laughed and reached out to pick up his long saber before he said calmly, “Not talking about other things is fine by me. I’ve already found my Dao.”

Mi Xue and Xu Lei widened their eyes.

Zhou Kai’s arm trembled and the Saber Qi erupted. Amidst tearing sounds, the bedsheet was torn by the Saber Qi and flew in every direction. Then, it revealed a cold, harsh blade that was buzzing constantly.

At that moment, Zhou Kai continued to speak. “My Dao can break all techniques with one saber move.”

Mi Xue: ノ✪ω✪ʅ

Xu Lei: ノ✪ω✪ʅ

In Mi Xue and Xu Lei’s eyes, Zhou Kai instantly looked as noble as their respected chief.

Furthermore, the two of them were delighted.

That was great. With such a formidable senior around, no matter what kind of danger they faced this time, someone would be leading them. They wouldn’t be as anxious as abandoned children anymore.

Sob… So this is what having peace of mind is like.

The truck got on the road and quickly drove forward. Mi Xue, who was inside the car, took out a lot of snacks she had brought along and offered them to Zhou Kai.

Xu Lei, who didn’t have anything, pounded Zhou Kai’s legs and kneaded them. Then, he asked Zhou Kai about his past glory from time to time.

The little girl fed him snacks while the little guy pounded his legs. This made Zhou Kai feel secretly happy.

Qin Feng considered the Anyang branch humiliating, but it was somewhat wonderful in Zhou Kai’s opinion.

Since he was enjoying this, Zhou Kai was generous about giving them advice.

After all, the few encounters with evil anomalies he had experienced were definitely considered glorious experiences by the two newbies.

He had fought wisely with the Pen Spirit, seen through the corpse spirits, and ventured into places with evil thoughts alone, which made Xu Lei and Mi Xue simply worship Zhou Kai to the point of no return.

They even regarded Zhou Kai as a target to chase in the future.

Time passed slowly. After a few hours, the truck joined the main unit.

The main unit seemed to be using field training as an undercover method, but there was actually staff from various branches present.

Zhou Kai had thought that he would meet people from the other branches of the Analogous Department after joining the main unit.

However, he was soon disappointed. After he joined the main unit, the old fat chauffeur warned them to just stay inside the truck and not run about. Arrangements would be made when they arrived at their destination.

This was clearly contempt. However, since Zhou Kai was a last-minute substitute, he didn’t really care about it.

Mi Xue and Xu Lei, on the other hand, were unhappy.

The two of them didn’t care. Didn’t newbies go through that? Newbies from the branches that came also needed a great deal of observation and training to be groomed.

However, he couldn’t do it. He was a capable person and a very important vanguard member! The two of them, who had regarded Zhou Kai as their idol, were sullen and furious.

Upon sensing that something was amiss with those two, Zhou Kai quickly said firmly, “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy?”

Xu Lei said with a flushed face, “Brother, they’re belittling and humiliating you. Even if our branch isn’t as good as theirs, they can’t do that.”

“That’s right, Brother. We’ll go find the people in charge of these branches and ask them to be the judge. This is too much.” Mi Xue was very displeased.

Zhou Kai laughed. “Look, your cultivation is still not good enough.”

As he said that, his expression became serious. “Since the two of you are calling me elder brother, I’ll treat you guys as my younger siblings. The cultivation path focuses on cultivating the heart. If your heart is unstable, anything you cultivate will be useless. This is nothing. Even if the gale and the tide overturn and the high mountains crumble, you’ll still have to remain calm and not be moved by external factors. If you get angry over a trivial matter, how are you going to live if you’re influenced by the evil magic of the evil anomalies?”

Xu Lei and Mi Xue froze before their expressions became ashamed. Then, they didn’t dare utter a word.

Zhou Kai added, “This person is belittling me because he doesn’t know me. I won’t pay him any attention. Besides, I came here mainly for the mission and my cultivation. I keep telling myself that this is my Saber Dao. The two of you have to exercise restraint in the future and be in the right frame of mind. Don’t mind these common courtesies, or you’ll be on the losing end of the deal.”

Zhou Kai was not spouting nonsense. These words were the essence of words summarized by his predecessors in the decades of the Saber Dao inheritance and were basically wise words of cultivation. He had said those words to the two of them because he had been influenced by their innocence and was willing to teach them some of the things he knew.

Indeed, after hearing what Zhou Kai had said, Xu Lei and Mi Xue quickly lowered their heads and said gratefully, “Thank you for your guidance, Brother.”
