The Tenfold Heavenly Realm, Eastern Desolation!
Tiankui City, behind the City Lord's Manor.
The Young Miss, An Ruoyi, was dressed in white like snow, her skin so delicate it seemed it could be broken with a touch, her beauty beyond compare.
As Tiankui City's most beautiful woman, and possessing a sixth-grade Spiritual Root cultivation talent, she was naturally the focus of much attention from talented young men.
However,
She was already married.
She married a down-and-out, homeless, ordinary handsome young man, and he was even a live-in son-in-Law.
On the day of the wedding, many of Tiankui City's Geniuses cried tears of anger, and some even went to duel.
An Ruoyi sat alone under the pavilion.
Her delicate brows were furrowed, burdened by heavy worries.
“Young Miss.” The maid, Lanlan, hurried over, indignantly saying, “Young Master-in-Law is becoming more and more out of line. You should divorce him!”
An Ruoyi's red lips moved slightly, “What's wrong with him?”
Lanlan said, “He bought a hoe, a sickle, and an axe, and is clearing land to farm near Da Huai Village, south of the city.”
“Young Miss, you are the City Lord's daughter, a Genius with a sixth-grade Spiritual Root. For Young Master-in-Law to go farming isn't that just shaming you?”
“Many people in the city already know. They say the Lord was blind to find a farmer as a live-in son-in-Law, and it has become the laughingstock of the entire city.”
An Ruoyi took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, “That's nothing. Working hard with one's own hands is not shameful.”
Lanlan spoke, “The crucial thing is, Young Master-in-Law sold all the shops the Lord gave him for a living!”
All sold?
Those shops were quite valuable!
An Ruoyi could barely hold back.
Lanlan continued, “The Lord asked him where the money from selling the shops went, and he actually spent it all within a few days!”
An Ruoyi couldn't hold back anymore, “That prodigal son, let's go find him…”
Cicadas chirped in the summer, and the wind carried hot waves.
It was too hot today.
So hot that one only wanted to strip off their clothes and jump into a lake for a bath.
“If only I could learn the Cloud Weaving Talisman, how wonderful that would be.”
In the farmland outside Da Huai Village.
A young man, covered in sweat, his handsome face slightly red from the sun, was vigorously swinging a hoe, passionately clearing land.
He,
Was An Ruoyi's husband, Li Ping'an, the most beautiful woman in Tiankui City.
Eighteen years ago, he Transmigrated to this world where Cultivation was prevalent, myriad races coexisted, and Demonic Techniques ran rampant.
He was born into a good family, a Young Master from the Lord Zhendong's family, who guarded the eastern border of the former Holy Martial Empire, and even had a good marriage arrangement.
Originally, Li Ping'an also wanted to be a tiger father's worthy son, surpassing his father, but things did not go as planned.
Perhaps his Transmigrated Soul was not recognized by the Law of this world; he simply had no Spiritual Root talent and could not embark on the path of Cultivation!
He thought it was fine.
At least he could live a life of comfort, without worrying about finding a wife.
But this beautiful life was completely disrupted by a war five years ago.
His father, Lord Zhendong, led troops to battle, and his mother also went to kill enemies, but neither of them returned.
Later, the Holy Martial Empire's hateful imperial family even accused Lord Zhendong of an unsuccessful campaign, confiscated all his property, and stripped him of his title as a king of a different surname.
From then on, Li Ping'an had no one to rely on.
Fortunately, his future father-in-Law was the City Lord of Tiankui City and a relatively trustworthy person, who took Li Ping'an into the City Lord's Manor.
He also honored the marriage contract and held the wedding for Li Ping'an and An Ruoyi ten days ago.
At that time, Li Ping'an was deeply moved.
But during the wedding night, because he was too eager, he was beaten by his wife and gained no advantage whatsoever.
At that time, he was quite annoyed, but he couldn't beat her, so what could he do?
From then on, the couple slept separately on a large bed, and they hadn't even held hands.
Fortunately.
Nine days ago, the Protagonist Halo of the Transmigrator finally appeared: the System, Little Farmer of Cultivation.
The activation conditions were very simple.
The first condition: the System said it was a farmer System and was rather short on money, demanding 1 million gold coins.
So, Li Ping'an sold the shops that were his livelihood, and with great difficulty, gathered 1 million.
The second condition was that Li Ping'an needed to clear land and farm, to test if he had the talent to be a farmer, and he had to clear one mu of land as an assessment first.
Having been a farmer's child in his previous life, this naturally did not stump Li Ping'an.
At this moment,
After a long morning of non-stop work, one mu of barren land was about to be completed.
With the last swing of the hoe, the condition was fulfilled!!!
Ding: ‘Host is indeed a Genius, truly a farming Genius. To clear one mu of land so quickly, if you don't farm, what justice is there?!’
“Hoo~”
Li Ping'an wiped a bead of sweat, “Do I have a choice?”
System: ‘No.’
“Then why are you being sarcastic?” Li Ping'an found a shady spot to sit down, feeling a bit displeased.
This was a world of Cultivators, where strength was respected.
It was one thing not to have a Protagonist Halo, but after finally getting one, it was for farming.
Even if he didn't become an Immortal Emperor, an unparalleled existence, he should at least have the means to suppress his Mother Tiger.
As a Transmigrator, he deeply understood one truth: if a man is not talented, a beautiful woman brings disaster.
Wasn't that Big Brother the best example?
Li Ping'an asked, “Tell me, what abilities can you bring me?”
System: ‘This System is incredibly awesome.’
Li Pingfan: “The kind you boast about?”
System: ‘Hey, please show some respect to this System. Believe it or not, I'll quit?’
Li Ping'an's mouth twitched, “You're amazing, you're awesome, I believe you, alright?”
System: ‘That's more like it. Although this System won't make the Host soar, it can bring the Host infinite Life Qi, letting you farm until the end of time, to your heart's content!’
“Hey, don't go too far.” Li Ping'an felt like cursing.
It was one thing to make him farm, but to make him farm until the end of time, until his heart's content?
This was very infuriating, wasn't it?
System: ‘Host, don't be angry yet. This System knows farmers suffer and are tired, so there are additional rich rewards. Otherwise, it wouldn't deserve the title of System.’
‘Next, is the impressive part of this System. It's true we are farmers, but farmers need strength, right?’
‘In this world, to make crops grow better, learning some Rain Summoning Technique, Sun Technique, Spring Wind Technique, Demonic Technique removal, etc., is very reasonable, right?’
‘Host, with infinite Life Qi, farming until the end of time, you also need some self-defense techniques, fitness techniques, so you don't die suddenly.’
‘When you're tired of farming, Host, you'll always want to go hunting and playing, right? You need to have some skills to come back alive, don't you?’
‘So, being a farmer is not a simple matter.’
Li Ping'an caught on, “You mean, we can also be as powerful as Cultivators?”
System: ‘Are Cultivators very powerful? This System doesn't think so. We farmers are upright our whole lives, when have we ever submitted to others?’
‘Didn't someone say that life is a Cultivation? Host, just remember, during your process of clearing land and farming, you will receive Cultivation point feedback rewards, and when you harvest grain, you will also receive mysterious treasure chests, as a reward for seeing things through.’
‘Those grains can be sold for money, or eaten. It's truly one act of farming, with several harvests.’
‘Alright, that's all for now. If the Host says a few nice words, this System will begin Fusion. Otherwise, it will disappear very quickly!’
‘At that time, even if you take regret medicine, it won't help…’
