I Just Wanted to Live, but I Somehow Became Better Than the Main Character Chapter 27: Overprotective and Doting Parent

During the days Qin Shi ng had used to break through to the Crystallization Realm, Ye Yong had also cultivated every day. Compared to when he just started, Ye Yong had a better cultivation routine. Every morning, he would spend an hour at Lin Weis mansion and brew tea for her and drink tea together. Sotis they wouldnt have anything to talk about and would just sit there drinking tea, but it still ward their hearts.

Lin Wei was definitely the happiest person for the past few days. This was because not only had Ye Yongs cultivation increased, but Lin Wei also felt that Ye Yong didnt hate her or get annoyed by her annoying anymore and was very filial and obedient.

Yong Er, if you et a suitable girl in the Heavenly Luo Sect, bring her back here, Lin Wei said.

Why are you saying, mother? Im still young. 18 years may be an adult for mortals, but for cultivators, an 18-year-old was like a newborn.

Lin Wei, for example, was about 300 years old when she married Ye Qian Lang and gave birth to Ye Yong.

A 300-year-old mortal would already be dead, but a 300-year-old cultivator was still considered pretty young, especially since a cultivators lifespan increased with cultivation.

Ah, its just that I cant break through for the ti being, so I have nothing to do, so I want a grandchild to play with, Lin Wei said.

Speaking of cultivation, youre at the 2nd layer of the Nascent Soul Realm, right mother? Ye Yong asked.

Ye Yong currently had about 100k transcend points as Qin Shi ngs favorability rating had increased a few days ago, giving him so transcend points. Her current attitude towards Ye Yong was [friends]. Ye Yong suspected that it was because Qin Shi ng had broken through to the Crystallization Realm or sothing.

Ye Yong made so rough calculations and figured that Qin Shi ng gave him about 800 transcend points for each point increase in favorability rating from 0 to 10, and about 1,200 transcend points for each point increase in favorability rating after 10. Wu Xues current favorability rating towards Ye Yong was 43 and gave 1,500 transcend points for each point increase, which was pretty amazing.

However, since Ye Yong couldnt repeatedly grind the sa favorability rating for one heroine for transcend points, he needed to increase the favorability rating of other heroines and cut off the male leads fortuitous opportunities.

Putting that aside, 100k transcend points was a lot to Ye Yong, and he could buy so things from the system store that Lin Wei needed.

Ive been stuck at the 2nd layer for many years, Lin Wei said. Lin Wei had tried to cultivate in seclusion before, but it didnt work as she had t a bottleneck. She couldnt just go out and explore secret realms either as she was a mother.

For cultivators, there was no such thing as smooth sailing- opportunities were often accompanied by dangers, and so cultivators broke through while fighting.

If Lin Wei wanted to break through without encountering any dangers or exploring secret realms, then she would have to wait for at least a dozen years. And that was only because she had good talent- cultivators with bad talent wouldnt even be able to reach the Nascent Soul Realm in a few hundred years even if they had a large number of resources.

Mother, do you want to get stronger? Ye Yong asked.

Am I not strong enough? Lin Wei responded. Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were already powerhouses that could start a dium sect, and besides, Lin Wei was still young. She was only 300 years old and could live up to at least another 700 years.

The average lifespan of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator was between 800 and 1,500 years. Ascension Realm cultivators had lifespans of more than 2,000 years. Simply put, the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the longer their lifespan was.

It was actually pretty simple to understand why. Mortal bodies contained many toxins of the world, which would accumulate throughout the years and slowly corrode their bodies, so they wouldnt have long lifespans.

To beco martial artists, mortals need to refine their physiques, which would discharge toxins from the body in the process. Of course, not all toxins would be discharged- but a person with a body that had fewer toxins would naturally lead a longer and healthier life.

Once a cultivator broke through to the Qi Refining Realm, they would discharge even more toxins. After they broke through to the Foundation Establishnt Realm, they would start to not need to eat anymore, which eliminated a source of toxins, and even if they did, they wouldnt be affected by the toxins in mortal foods.

As a cultivators cultivation increased, their body would be transford more and more by spiritual energy, causing them to get beco more and more like Heaven and Earth, at which point they can beco Saints and Tribulation Realm cultivators. Because Heaven and Earth didnt allow any creatures to imitate itself, it would cast heavenly thunder on the Tribulation Realm cultivators.

If the Tribulation Realm cultivator succeeded in fending off the heavenly thunder, they could beco an immortal and would be above the world. In exchange, the cultivators would be forced to ascend to a more powerful world as the current world wouldnt be able to accommodate such powerful individuals.

Well, actually, everything was just because the author wanted to increase the word count of the novel, so he made a different place for the male lead to continue to show off.

In short, since Ye Yong was in the sa world as the novel, he was able to see through the setups.

Isnt it a horrible pit? A person worked so hard to beco an immortal and thought that they would be able to live an amazing life, only to find that theyve beco the bottom in the new world and needed to climb back up the societal ladder again.

However, this kind of setup was extrely popular. After all, the universe was a huge place. Who knows whats really out there?

Not enough, Ye Yong said, shaking his head. When I need to ascend to an immortal realm in the future, you will need to at least be a Saint to ascend with . Are you really satisfied with a cultivation that is just in the Nascent Soul Realm?

Listen to yourself. Youre just at the Foundation Establishnt Realm, and you already dare to look down on Nascent Soul Realm, Lin Wei said. She wasnt offended or anything- rather, she felt that Ye Yong really had the potential to beco an immortal for having such high standards. But I just cant break through. Im too afraid to encounter danger to go explore secret realms for fortuitous opportunities. If I cant see you, then even if I dont die physically, I will die ntally.

That was sothing that Ye Yong wouldnt deny. Lin Wei really did beco insane after losing Ye Yong in the novel.

Mother, if I say that I have a ntal art thats very suitable for you, and that you just need to cultivate it to break through will you believe it?

Theres such an amazing ntal art? And you know that it suits ? Lin Wei wasnt doubting Ye Yong- rather, she just thought that she knew more about cultivation than Ye Yong did. Powerful ntal arts were hard to co by, and just having them wasnt enough- only with the right people would the ntal arts prove to be useful and amazing.

So do you believe or not?

Of course I do, Lin Wei said. With how fast Ye Yong had been cultivating, Lin Wei was sure that Ye Yong had so sort of a fortuitous encounter and obtained a powerful ntal art or sothing. Yong Er had been cultivating the best earth-grade ntal art before, so maybe he got a heaven-grade ntal art. But just because it suits him doesnt an that it will suit .

However, as an overprotective and doting mother, Lin Wei wasnt going to try to cancel Ye Yongs motivation.

Mother, you have to promise that you wont show the ntal art to anyone else.

Of course. I swear by Heaven and Earth.

Heaven and Earth watched every action cultivators took, so swearing by Heaven and Earth really did sothing.

Ye Yong took out an ink and pen. He had previously spent 5 transcend points for the introductory level of calligraphy, and even though it was just the introductory level, it still made Ye Yongs handwriting look pretty and neat. Since Ye Yong didnt like to write, even Lin Wei didnt know that Ye Yongs words were so pretty.

As her attention shifted from the words themselves to the aning, Lin Wei beca more and more astonished. She found that the ntal art was extrely suitable for her. It wasnt perfectly compatible with her, but it was still way better than her current earth-grade ntal art.

Yong Er what is this? Lin Wei didnt think that this was the ntal art that Ye Yong cultivated as different ntal arts paired with different physiques would have different characteristics. The ntal art that Ye Yong just wrote was yin-like and soft, aning that it was more suitable for won. If a male cultivated the ntal art, the yin energy in his body would increase, making him more feminine.

Although Lin Wei couldnt see through Ye Yongs cultivation level, she could still roughly feel that the yin and yang within Ye Yongs body was stable, aning that there was no chance that ye Yong had cultivated the ntal art.

Mother, rest assured and cultivate it. Dont ask too much?

Okay Lin Wei said, slowly picking up the ntal art, still a bit shocked. Does it have a na?

Translators Notes:

Im not sure if Heaven and Earth are supposed to be 2 entities or 1. Im leaning toward the side that its 1 entity.
