“Yes! Hell yes! Even in my dreams!” Zhou Jinjiang was so excited he justblurted out what was on his mind.

He has been waiting for this moment forever, how could he turned thisopportunity down? Of course he wouldn’t turn it down!

Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled cheerfully and handed him a snow ginseng, “UncleZhou, this snow ginseng should be sufficient to help you through yourbottleneck. You can’t complain if it didn’t work!”

“No, no, of course not. Xiao Xiao, I will go for it right away.Definitely break through tonight!”

The last line came floating in from the outside; it was quite obviousthat Zhou Jinjiang was very excited.

And Cheng Biyuan father and daughter were the only ones left in theliving room.

Cheng Biyuan, on the other hand, did not have the same hopeful look asthe other two. Quite the contrary, he seemed very nonchalant, as though he wasunaffected by everything that had just happened.

Seeing his reaction, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but became curious.She asked, “Dad, don’t you want to breakthrough? And become martial kingtonight?”

“Of course I do!”

“Every single cultivator wants their cultivation level to go upcontinuously toward the highest level; but I am quite aware of my ownsituation. I am only at beginner martial spiritual level and had only recentbroke through to it at that. It is simply not practical for me to expect to beable to breakthrough to martial king tonight.

“My situation is not the same as your Uncle Zhou and Elder Ying; theyhave been stuck at the bottleneck for years. All they needed was a little extrahelp to push them over the hump. As for myself? I don’t think that will be arealistic expectation on my part. As such, there is no need to hold out suchunrealistic hopes. On top of that, their being able to breakthrough was alreadysuperb news for our family.”

Her father’s words made Cheng Xiao Xiao saw how truly calm andintelligent her father was. Only someone like him was good enough to be herfather!

“Dad, you shouldn’t talk down about yourself like that. Your daughter ishere. You will be able to breakthrough as long as you want to breakthrough.It’s all a matter of how determined you are!”

“Xiao Xiao, you mean….”

“Dad, I am not teasing you. You should have noticed that it took me afew days’ time to breakthrough from martial master to martial spiritualist. Andthat was only because I have just started cultivating recently and didn’t havea solid foundation; otherwise it would have taken me even less time. But, dad,you are not the same as me. You have been cultivating for some twenty years,and your talent was top notched. If you are will to take a chance, you justmight be able to break though to martial king tonight just like Uncle Zhou!”

She paused and smiled light at her father, “But if you don’t want togive it a try, that is fine too. I knew you would be able to breakthroughsooner or later!”

“Xiao Xiao, your method of trying to be manipulative was quite horrid!”Cheng Biyuan couldn’t help but shook his head. Yet there was light ofdetermination from his eyes, “I have been through so much hardship already. IfXiao Xiao you are telling me that this was possible, how could I not give it atry? I have already chosen the path of cultivation, naturally I must pushthrough any obstacles that come my way.”

“Dad, you are right. I should have said that!” Cheng Xiao Xiao felt thatshe had hurt her dad’s feeling at that moment in time. She couldn’t help butlowered her head and said, “Dad, I am sorry!”

“Don’t be silly. There’s no need to apologize. You didn’t do anything wrongand you were right, I can overcome any kind of challenges!”

Cheng Biyuan reached out and patted his daughter on her skinny shoulderin an effort to comfort her.

Cheng Xiao Xiao was smiling as she looked up again. She produced theitems that she had prepared for her father and said, “Dad, so this is how youare going to do it – first, you want to absorb this snow ginseng; that ought toget you to mid level martial spiritualist. But don’t stop here, then you wantto drink this bottle of water. Just keep in mind that no matter how your bodyis feeling, just keep your lingtai clear and recite the mantra. If youkeep to it you will succeed for certain. This bottle of water will get you toadvanced level martial spiritualist. Then take this fiery fruit and you will breakthrough to martial king. It isdefinitely doable!”
