Son, Put Your Father To The Test - Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Totally Fine!

Translator: Zayn_

“Father, you’ve been out of the Nine Sun Dynasty before?!”

Qin Zi was shocked.

One’s ability to travel far was directly proportional to one’s strength.

On one hand, it was because the stronger one was, the faster one’s speed would be, allowing one to travel further.

On the other hand, it was because the further one walked, the more dangers one would encounter. Those who weren’t strong enough wouldn’t dare to travel far!

“Hehe, it’s not just the Nine Sun Dynasty… Since I told you that the Nine Sun Dynasty is nothing, I naturally have seen the true vastness of the world.”

Qin Chuan raised his head proudly. Then, as if he had thought of something, a self-deprecating look flashed across his eyes.

“Father, what’s wrong?”

Qin Zi saw this self-deprecating look and his heart instantly tightened. He asked with concern.

Qin Chuan was silent for a moment. Then he looked at Qin Zi with a sad expression. “Do you know… where your mother is now?”

“Mother… didn’t she pass away a long time ago?”

Qin Zi thought for a moment and said in a daze.

He remembered that his mother had died during childbirth. At least, since he was young, everyone, including his father, had said the same thing.

“No, your mother is actually still alive. She was just… taken away by her family.”

Qin Chuan’s voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of pain.

It was as if a person who drank to escape reality suddenly sobered up and recalled those unbearable past events…

“Mother’s family?!”

Qin Zi’s eyes widened. He had heard before that his mother was brought back by his father while he was out training. Her origins were unknown.

It was said that when his parents got married, many of the older generation members of the family boycotted them. No one even came to attend the wedding.

“Yes, your mother’s family… is a true behemoth. In their eyes, the Nine Sun Dynasty can be destroyed with a snap of their fingers.”

Qin Chuan said in a low voice.

“Hiss!!”

Qin Zi sucked in a breath of cold air. To destroy the Nine Sun Dynasty with a snap of their fingers… what kind of power would that be?

One had to know that the Nine Sun Dynasty had Heaven realm experts!

Cultivation was divided into nine great realms: Body Tempering, True Origin, Origin Core, Pure Yang, Nirvana, Heaven, Saint, World Emperor, and Martial Emperor.

Heaven realm, as the sixth great realm of cultivation, was already very strong.

After a long time, Qin Zi came back to his senses and asked with a very uneasy mood, “Father, what kind of power is mom’s family?”

“Don’t ask!”

Qin Chuan’s face suddenly stiffened and he said in a deep voice, “It’s not good for you to know too much now. Don’t aim too high.”

“Oh…”

Qin Zi nodded thoughtfully. He was very happy in his heart. At least, his mother was still alive!

Qin Zi thought for a moment and asked again, “Father, you should have been very strong in the past, right? Why are you now…”

What he meant was…

Why is there such a big difference between your status now and the things you said about the past? It was completely unbelievable!

“I was sealed.”

Qin Chuan sighed and said, “Back then, when they took your mother away, they were prepared to kill us father and son.”

“After all, your mother was their Saintess. The existence of us father and son was equivalent to a stain on their family.”

“In the end, your mother begged them not to kill us, so we were spared. However, in order to prevent me from taking revenge in the future, they sealed my cultivation.”

“The origin core in my body was actually a seal!”

“Not only did it seal my original cultivation, it also made it impossible for me to recultivate. All these years, I could only maintain it at the Origin Core realm.”

Saying this, he suddenly raised his head and smiled.

He laughed until he gritted his teeth, and it was even somewhat malevolent!

“But the heavens have eyes! This time, when I went to the danger zone to find medicine for you, I accidentally triggered an ancient array formation and broke the seal!”

When Qin Zi heard this, his breathing suddenly became hurried!

He looked at his father with a burning gaze and said excitedly, “Father, you mean… your strength…”

“Yes, once the seal is broken, my strength will quickly recover to my previous realm, and I can even continue to improve!”

He raised his head proudly, and instantly, a heroic aura soared into the sky, and his long hair fluttered even though there was no wind!

He was in high spirits.

He was giving a signal to the world!

It was as if… an unparalleled prodigy who had once roamed the world and stunned a generation had returned!

Qin Zi looked at his father in a daze and asked nervously, “Father, what realm have you reached?”

Qin Chuan lowered his head and looked at his son with a mysterious smile. “You won’t understand even if I tell you. I can only tell you… that I have cultivated more than nine realms.”

He was deliberately mystifying!

As a businessman in his previous life, Qin Chuan knew very well that some things could not be explained too clearly.

Firstly, it was easy to expose the truth.

Secondly, as long as anything was explained, it was easy to lose its value. Only by keeping it mysterious could it appear superior!

“Hiss –”

As expected, when he heard such words, Qin Zi sucked in a breath of cold air and almost died on the spot.

He had absolute trust in his father.

Therefore, no matter how ridiculous the words were, as long as they came out of his father’s mouth, he would at least believe 70% of them!

And at this moment, Qin Chuan seized the opportunity and pushed further.

He glanced at the black ring on his cheap son’s hand and said with a smile, “This ring is very good. Did you get it on your trip this time?”

“Yes… Yes, yes…”

Qin Zi quickly lowered his head. His eyes were evasive, and there was even a hint of struggle and guilt.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan immediately understood.

There was most likely an old man in this ring!

The old man must have told his son not to tell him the secret of the ring, which was why his son felt guilty for lying to him.

Immediately, he took advantage of his son’s lowered head to look at the ring meaningfully.

His expression was very deep, as if he was saying, ‘Old man, don’t hide. I see you.’

He believed that if there really was an old man in the ring, he would definitely be frightened by his “seeing through everything” gaze.

In this way.

As long as the old man told his cheap son afterwards, wouldn’t his image in the son’s heart as a strong man be established?!

Of course, it was possible that there was no old man in the ring, only some other secret.

But that didn’t matter. After all, no one had seen him. Even if he winked at the air, there was nothing to be embarrassed about…

“Father, actually…”

After a long while, Qin Zi gritted his teeth and suddenly raised his head, as if he wanted to confess to Qin Chuan.

After all, how could a master be more important than a father?

As the saying went: a teacher for one day, a father for life. However, he had yet to… acknowledge him as a teacher.

“Alright!”

Qin Chuan immediately patted his head and smiled, “Everyone has their own secrets. Father doesn’t mind.”

Qin Zi’s body trembled, then he nodded emotionally. Only his father had always understood him this way.

“A man always stands by his word. You have to remember that you have to do your best to do everything that you have promised others.”

“If you really can’t do it… you still have a father.”

Qin Chuan said gently and then glanced at the ring.

This sentence had a double meaning!

It was meant for the possible existence of the “ring grandpa”, but it was also meant for Qin Zi.

If the ring grandpa really existed, then after hearing this sentence, he would be even more certain that Qin Chuan had discovered him.

In this way, his image as a peerless expert would be completely established in the heart of the old man within the ring.

As long as the old man within the ring believed him and gave him a little assistance, the cheapskate son would completely believe that his father was a peerless expert!

Of course, it was still the same sentence.

This was only a possibility.

Perhaps there was no old man.

However, even if there was no old man, these two sentences of his were not awkward. Was there a problem with a father teaching his son some great principles?

No problem at all!!
