Chereads / Overly Cautious Reincarnator: Let Me Cultivate In Peace / Chapter 2 - Can't Escape What You Were

Chapter 2 - Can't Escape What You Were

"Senior sister, is there anything you want?" Yu Jing quickly cupped his fist and spoke respectfully.

"Do not change the topic. I was asking, Why are you laughing with that smug face?"

"Senior sister, you are thinking too much. It is just this weak servant who has found a mortal woman who wants to go with me." Yu Jing said it with a sad yet elated face.

"Is that so?" The girl went into deep thought.

Seeing this opportunity, Yu Jing said it in a hurry and left. "Senior sister, I have work to do, or the elders will punish me. Farewell."

The next moment, the girl came back to her senses and looked back to see Yu Jing's shadow fading away into the crowd.

The girl whispered softly. "What a weird fellow!"

At that moment, a young-looking boy who had the same facial features as her came beside her. "Sister, who was that kid? He doesn't look special. If he did anything, just tell me."

From the looks of it, it was clear it was her biological brother.

"Nothing." The girl shook her head, trying to forget this incident, as if she had anything to do with mortals. However, before leaving, the girl glared at her brother and warned. "Also, I have to remind you of one thing. Do not have any ill intent toward the servants of any sect. They are precious lives to the sects, far more than an outer disciple like you."

"Okay, okay, sister. You didn't need to say the last part." Her brother said it with an aggrieved face.

Meanwhile, Yu Jing, who was going to his net cleaning spot, thought silently. 'Phew~ Women are the hardest thing to read. I have to stay as far away from them as possible, or they will only bring trouble.'

After doing all the work, Yu Jing returned to his shabby yet comfortable cabin. 

Turning on the lamp, Yu Jing slumped onto the bed. "Man, today felt more work than ever. How do they expect a young guy like me to clean such big areas?"

After a small session of ranting, Yu Jing decided to fall asleep with anticipation. "From tomorrow, all these will mean nothing."

With a big smile on his face, Yu Jing closed his eyes, tightly hugging his ragged body pillow.

[ The blocking function is currently on.]

Yu Jing's eyes shot open, and he jumped up from his bed. "System, why now? I thought you would give it to me tomorrow."

[ Host, because there is nothing like a clock in this world, your sense of time has been skewed. If we go according to the earthly clock system, it is just past 12 AM ]

"Oh, is that so? Yeah, you are right. The only thing I get a sense of time from is the sun. Well, forget all of this." Yu Jing asked curiously. "How strong is your blocking function?"

[ This blocking function is called Heavenly Blanket. Everything under this heaven will not be able to see through you. ]

"System, so you mean there are people stronger than heaven?" 

[ Yes, but you do not have to worry. The heavenly rules do not support those beings. They will instantly get thrown away by the heavenly spirit. ]

"Hmmm, so expect this heavenly spirit; no one can see through me." Yu Jing asked, raising his eyebrows.

[ Yes, you are right, host. Also host, there is something I have to tell you. ] 

'I have a bad feeling about this.' Yu Jing's heart started beating fast. "What is it?"

[ This blocking function would have been activated in the later stages of your cultivation, but because of your nature and plea, the system has forced open this function. This kind of powerful ability is not allowed under the heavenly rules. So, the system has bargained with the heavenly spirit ]

Holding back his anger, Yu Jing asked with a forced smile. "So what did you cook up with your new friend?"

[ The heavenly spirit of this world feels a catastrophe is about to hit the world. So it wants you to help it cultivate some genius with connate province and protect them till they grow up. Also, don't worry, host. The heavenly spirit will cultivate as much genius as possible, but it wants you to cultivate greater genius that it missed under its rader. ]

Yu Jing asked again, with dark lines on his face. "Is there anything I get in return?"

[ Yes. The system will reward you with x10 Fate Pulls for every connate province you nurture, but keep in mind that you can't neglect them. ]

"Yeah, fine. It isn't a big deal to nurture some newbies." Yu Jing scoffed.

'There is no time limit. If I find them, I will just lock them up in my room before they are ready to go out.'

"Is there anything else?" Yu Jing asked again, afraid that there might be more.

[ There is none. ]

Yu Jing let out a sigh of relief.

[ Because of diligence and extreme patience, the system has decided to upgrade the original x10 Fate Pulls to x10 Extreme Destiny Pulls ]

Yu Jing's eyes beamed with light upon hearing that. "You know how to keep your host happy. I forgive you for everything."

[ Reminder: You will get x10 Fate Pulls every ten years. To let the host easily remember the time, the next x10 Fate Pulls will come on the host's 20th birthday instead of your 24th birthday. Also, in every 100 years, the host will receive x10 Extreme Destiny Pulls ]

If the system had a physical appearance, Yu Jing would have given it a weird stare. "System, don't tell me your main gimmick is gacha."

[ Host, the system has decided to become in what the host is in most familiar with ]

Now, Yu Jing felt a bit weird inside. "I just played four gacha games as a side game, why did you have to choose it? I played MMO too, you know?"

[ The system knows. ]

[ But a gacha gamer's heart will always be in gacha ]
