Chapter 155: A Will to Die

Qin Ming left his Master's Alchemy Room and headed straight to his own Cultivation Chamber.

Tomorrow the Sima Family would come knocking at their door, and he had a plan that required the strength of a Martial Spirit.

Therefore, he had to seize every moment to Cultivate now.

He had already tested it; with the strength of a first-layer Martial Master, using the ability of the Pill God Physique could only reach the eighth layer of the Martial Ancestor Realm. It seemed he still needed to raise his cultivation to reach the Martial Spirit Realm.

A day passed in a hurry, and Qin Ming emerged from his Cultivation.

During this session of Cultivation, he had consumed a perfect qi gathering pill, and his strength had risen to the third-layer Martial Master. After testing, he found that after using the Pill God Physique, he could reach the first layer of the Martial Spirit Realm.

Cultivating for a whole night and only going from the Martial Master Realm to the third-layer Martial Master, Qin Ming was very dissatisfied.

How long would it take to Breakthrough the Martial Master Realm and reach the Grand Martial Master Realm?

If other Martial Artists heard Qin Ming's thoughts, they would likely die of shame.

How many Martial Masters would celebrate for gaining one layer in a year? Qin Ming had advanced two layers in a single night of Cultivation and was actually still unsatisfied.

“Pill God Physique, Battle!”

The Aura on Qin Ming's body suddenly changed, reaching the Martial Spirit Realm.

“Martial Spirit, I've finally reached it.”

Withdrawing his Aura and looking at the sky outside that was about to break into dawn, Qin Ming murmured:

“This is just like the Qin Family; the darkness has passed, and the future will be full of light. And I shall protect this light.

I'll go see Father first; I wonder how he's doing.”

Yesterday, Qin Ming was in a hurry to practice his skills, so he had left.

Thinking of his father's despondent appearance, Qin Ming felt a pang of heartache.

Soon, Qin Ming arrived at his father's Study and knocked on the door.

“Come in!” a deep voice came from inside the room.

Qin Ming pushed the door open and entered. Seeing his father whose eyes shone with determination, Qin Ming cupped his hands and said:

“Father!”

Qin Yuan nodded and said:

“Qin Ming, you've come at just the right time. I was actually about to go look for you.”

“Father, what is it you need?” Qin Ming asked, puzzled.

Seeing that his father's mental state was much better, Qin Ming felt relieved.

Qin Yuan looked at Qin Ming and said:

“Qin Ming, with the Sima Family attacking this time, there's no way our Qin Family can resist them.

Since that's the case, as many of us from the Qin Family should escape as possible. We've already discussed it.

The younger generation of the Qin Family will scatter and flee, while we old fogies will stay at the Qin Family and wait for the Sima Family to arrive.”

Hearing these words, Qin Ming's body suddenly trembled.

His father had a will to die; it was only because he had accepted his death that he had the courage to face the Sima Family.

Looking at the father before him, Qin Ming felt as if he were seeing the father from his past life, who had covered his escape and fought alone.

His father was a man of indomitable spirit. At the Qin Family's moment of greatest peril, he wasn't thinking of his own escape but wanted to secure a chance of survival for the Family's younger generation.

Even though this chance of survival seemed very slim.

“Father, rest assured! Nothing will happen to the Qin Family.”

Having said that, suppressing the tears that were about to well up, Qin Ming left his father's Study without looking back.

“Ah…” Qin Yuan watched the departing Qin Ming. He wanted to say something, but it ultimately turned into a sigh.

“It's all because I'm useless. If only I were at the Martial Ancestor Realm.”

Sitting in his chair, Qin Yuan clutched his head, thinking in agony.

The entire Qin Family was about to be destroyed; how could he face his ancestors in the afterlife?

Moreover, Qin Ming had great talent. As long as he didn't die, he would definitely lead the Qin Family to glory in the end.

But…
