Starry sky, I can hear their secrets.

"Su Chang, I... uh... what? You've been here for a long time?"

Unfortunately, Su Chang did not know the word "like".

But she could glean the meaning of those two words from Su Jinyan's expression just now.

He shoved it at me so forcefully and then ran away; he must be afraid I'd beat him up.

The word "讨厌" (tǎoyào) definitely means "I hate it" or "I dislike it"!

How infuriating! I've never even seen you before, so why should I be the one to hate you?

How dare you challenge me to a duel? You're infuriating!

Su Jinyan was stunned. As expected of Su Chang, her way of thinking was very much in line with hers.

I miscalculated. We're both illiterate, so we shouldn't have chosen love letters. If only there were an option for a face-to-face confession.

After making inquiries, Su Chang, wielding the Xuanyuan Sword, single-handedly stormed into your gang, fighting her way in and out seven times.

[You bunch of rabble were beaten black and blue by Su Chang, and you were all knocked down.]

Although you possess the martial spirit of a swordsman, no one has ever taught you swordsmanship, which is why Su Chang beat you into a pulp.

You were disillusioned with Su Chang, and this left you with a psychological shadow over women.

At twenty, you want to legitimize your gang and make it legal. But you're uneducated, lack management experience, and can't understand contracts.

You entrusted this matter to your trusted confidant, who betrayed you, causing your gang to fall apart.

You also incurred huge debts and were imprisoned.

[At twenty-three, you were released from prison. Having been tempered in prison, you've matured a lot and no longer engage in scathing criticism of General Tianji Feixiao.]

[Having heard that the Yaoqing Immortal Ship is about to launch a military campaign against the evil creatures of Falomomo, you also wish to join the army.]

Unfortunately, you have a criminal record and cannot join the army.

[You were not convinced and planned to make a comeback. With money earned from begging, you secretly bribed your superiors and infiltrated the Cloud Cavalry, becoming a glorious but unregistered new recruit.]

[Among the Cloud Cavalry, you once again saw the maiden in white robes who had haunted your dreams.]

Su Chang recognized you too; she vividly remembered those embarrassing moments from the past.

She teased you about being defeated, but you were unconvinced and felt her victory was unfair.

You agreed that after you return from this expedition, you would find an opportunity to compete again.

[May, Star Calendar 8098, Yao Qing Immortal Ship reports: Great victory achieved in the conquest of the evil creatures, Fa Luo Momo.]

[As someone who had never been on a battlefield and had never received formal training, you gloriously sacrificed your life on the journey to defeat the evil creatures of Faromomo, becoming a martyr.]

Upon learning of her comrade's sacrifice, Su Chang was deeply saddened and specially wrote a eulogy for you, which she read aloud before your tombstone.

It's a pity you'll never hear such a poorly written, typographically incorrect eulogy again.

Rating: E+

Hahaha, this is hilarious! What "Sleeping Dragon" and "Young Phoenix"?

[Reward: Added a new negative keyword – Beggar (gray).]

[Beggar (Gray): You were born a beggar, with extensive experience in begging. Purchase Points: -2 points.]

Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war; young hero, please try again.

[Should we spend 100 cosmic fragments to reselect keywords for the simulation, or continue simulating with the existing keywords?]

[Current number of cosmic fragments: 4450]

Su Jinyan decided to remove the labels "illiterate" and "arrogant," as both had too much negative impact, especially the latter.

After making a new choice, he selected "Lonely Star Calamity" and "Life and Death" as negative attributes, which gave him 40 free points.

The positive entries remain the same as before, with no changes.

You were born in a grotto-heaven within the Radiant Azure Immortal Ship.

[You were able to speak right after you were born, attracting the attention of the villagers.]

Your father named you "Su Jinyan".

You called out "Father," and your father immediately died a violent death.

Su Jinyan: "?"

You called out "Mother," and your mother passed away as well.

Su Jinyan: "?"

The villagers, their faces filled with terror, scattered like birds and beasts.

No one dared to hand you over to the Cloud Cavalry; they were all afraid of following in your parents' footsteps.

However, this matter quickly alarmed the Earth Balance Division of the Yaoqing Immortal Ship.

Hearing that a wicked being has been reincarnated, the Earthly Balance Division has dispatched an officer to detain you.

The official in charge of the Earth Balance Bureau was not afraid of these things. He walked up to you and picked you up.

"With a sword-like physique and martial prowess, this child is far from a spoiled brat; on the contrary, he is destined for greatness!"

The well-informed official of the Earthly Balance Division immediately recognized your extraordinary talent.

He believes that the reason your parents died because of you was not your fault.

[It's because your destiny was too strong, and your parents couldn't bear it. No one could be called "father" or "mother" by you, which is why they met such a tragic end.]

The ignorant masses consider you a monstrous creature and strongly demand your execution, hoping the Crane Feather Guards will carry out "punishment" against you.

The Bureau of Land Balances discussed this matter at length and ultimately rejected the request.

The Grand Diviner of the Yaoqing Immortal Ship has personally come to divine your future. He predicts that you will achieve great things and bring tremendous assistance to the Yaoqing Immortal Ship.

However, the diviner also calculated that your destiny is afflicted by both the Lonely Star and the Calamity Star, indicating an extremely strong tendency towards violence. It is a rare and extremely inauspicious destiny, one that is likely to harm both yourself and others.

[How to teach you has become a difficult task for the Earth Balance Division of the Yaoqing Immortal Ship.]

News of this matter quickly spread throughout the Immortal Ship Yaoqing.

Hearing of the sudden emergence of a genius with "sword-like martial prowess," the matter alarmed Li Shen, the master of Yijian Manor.

Li Shen made a special trip here, intending to adopt you as his "godson."

Li Shen, with black hair and dressed in white, walked up to him, nodded and smiled, clearly extremely satisfied with Su Jinyan's talent.

"This child is destined to be with me. Why don't you let him become a disciple of my Memory Sword Manor?"

The official in charge of the Earth Balance Division reminded him, "You should think it over carefully."

"The diviner said that this child is afflicted by the 'Lonely Star Calamity,' a rare and extremely unlucky fate that can harm both himself and others."

"Even the Grand Diviner couldn't effectively suppress the murderous aura emanating from him."

Li Shen smiled slightly: "It's alright, my destiny is even better."

"Such a talented swordsman, wouldn't it be a waste if no one adopted him?"

The infant Su Jinyan and Li Shen made eye contact.

His intuition told him that the man in front of him was likely a key figure in this part of his life.

[Li Shen, the owner of Yijian Manor, has completed the legal adoption procedures for you at the Earth Balance Office.]

He and his wife, Qin Suyi, had been married for three years without children. His adoption of you must be destiny.

That evening, Yijian Manor slaughtered pigs and sheep to host a banquet for its guests.

Memorable scenes resurface.

Yijian Manor spared no expense in lighting its lights, illuminating the long nights in the manor as bright as day.

Dozens of skilled craftsmen slaughtered pigs and sheep on site.

laugh--

Unable to hold back the wailing boar, the craftsman plunged a knife into its heart.

"Awoooooo, where should I stab?"

The fat pig let out a loud squeal and ran away, leaving all the guests speechless with astonishment.

Chapter 86 In this world, only I will never lie to Su Chang (7K-)

Fortunately, the craftsman was quick and agile; from hundreds of meters away, he threw his butcher knife and killed the pig with a single blow.

The world is a vast and wondrous place; there are pastries that make crisp, cheerful laughs, so it's not surprising that pigs can swear.
