Chapter 1015: Original text: Chapter 53 Yun Jin Also Needs Encouragement

    The next person to undergo the tribulation is Su Yunjin.

    Although her True Yuan is not as abundant as Xie Ruoxi’s, the “Southern Dipper Galaxy Secret Art” is a technique that covers a large area and does not consume much True Yuan, making it very suitable for crossing the tribulation.

    Since Xie Ruoxi did not consume any tribulation resources, Yunjin did not need to wait for the production of the Ten Thousand Bamboo Sword and the small Xuan Guang Ruler, allowing the tribulation date to be greatly advanced.

    Yan Yu, who was traveling all over the place, also took time that day to bring Chen Lingyun back to Wudang Mountain to confirm if Yunjin’s tribulation was successful.

    When they arrived at the base, they happened to meet Mr. Su and Mrs. Su who came to see her.

    Normally, the Wudang Mountain base is a military area where mortals are not allowed to enter. However, considering that visits from family and friends can help the tribulation cultivator adjust their state, Mei Yingxue made an exception to approve her parents’ visit.

    Su Yunjin entertained her parents in the room, serving them tea.

    Looking at their increasingly elegant and beautiful daughter, Mr. Su slowly opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.

    Recently, there were rumors online that cultivators in Jingbei Province have been undergoing tribulations one after another, and the villages near Wudang Mountain were evacuated. Then there were rumors that nine out of ten cultivators die during tribulation and that some of them have actually been struck dead, with the authorities using AI to synthesize their images and voices to pretend they are still alive… These rumors made Mrs. Su anxious, insisting on coming to confirm her daughter’s situation.

    Now that they saw their daughter was fine, the two of them were naturally relieved. However, Mrs. Su, being unable to hide her thoughts, quickly asked:

    “When do you and your captain Yan Yu plan to officially be together?”

    “Mom!” Su Yunjin became flustered immediately, “This is my business, please don’t ask anymore!”

    Seeing their daughter’s reaction, Mr. Su and Mrs. Su couldn’t help but realize that she was probably already in a relationship with Yan Yu. But the question remained: if they were already together, why hadn’t they made their relationship official yet?

    Even a blind person could see that Yan Yu was currently and would continue to be the most successful and promising man in Lu Country for a long time to come.

    After all, business elites could go bankrupt if their businesses failed, and political rising stars could fall due to political struggles, but cultivators were extremely rare super talents, regarded as precious even by the current Cabinet. There was no sign of excessive competition for decades to come—without talent, one could not become a cultivator, and there was no fear of industry overcrowding.

    Among cultivators, the treatment received by the batches that entered the system earlier was vastly different. Early entry meant receiving official resources from the start, giving them a head start over others. Rapid strength improvement meant more resource inclination, and the gap with other cultivators would only widen. The current top cultivators were all those who were officially recruited in the first year, which was the best evidence.

    As Mr. Su’s colleagues at the Social Sciences Academy would say, becoming a cultivator was like rolling a snowball. The earlier one started, the bigger the snowball became, the faster it rolled, leaving others far behind in the end.

    Clearly, Yan Yu was the biggest snowball currently. Given the unique mechanism of this snowball effect, it was foreseeable that Lu Country’s number one cultivator would sit on the highest throne for many years to come!

    No matter how demanding the in-laws, faced with such an excellent young man, they’d probably only say to their daughter, “Marry him.” S~ea??h the N??eFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    “Don’t worry.” Mr. Su consoled his wife, “Yunjin has a good eye. Back then, when she took a liking to Yan Yu, you were worried about this and that. Now it proves that our daughter has more foresight than you. She doesn’t need our interference, she can handle things better than we imagined.”

    “Alas.” Speaking of the past, Mrs. Su also felt some regret.

    If she had known Yan Yu would be so promising, they should have done everything to match him with their daughter when he visited during the New Year!

    Now he has made a name for himself, being the first to reach the Golden Core Realm, and is recognized as Lu Country’s number one cultivator. The female cultivators interested in him must be as numerous as fish crossing the river. Competing with them won’t be easy for their daughter!

    “Your father is right.” Mrs. Su quickly gathered her thoughts and gently told her daughter, “Being a scholar for so long, I always wanted to choose the best for you… but I won’t interfere anymore. Don’t feel too much psychological pressure; do what you want. Even if it means getting pregnant out of wedlock, we’ll help you raise the child…”

    “Mom!” Su Yunjin was just about to lose her mind. What do you mean by getting pregnant out of wedlock? I’m not to the point where I need to use a child to bind him!

    “What’s wrong with you?” Mr. Su quickly interrupted his wife, “You just agreed not to interfere and now you’re telling our daughter what to do again! Let her make her own decisions!”

    “Okay, okay, I won’t say anything.” Mrs. Su saw her daughter was about to explode and quickly stopped, “Speaking of the tribulation…”

    Before she could finish, there was a knock at the door and Yan Yu’s voice came from outside:

    “Yunjin, are you there?”

    Mr. and Mrs. Su almost jumped out of their chairs as if electrocuted: Oh no, the prospective son-in-law is here!

    Worried that Yan Yu might see them and lose interest in spending time with their daughter, Mr. Su glided to the door to open it, while Mrs. Su quickly put the things they brought on the table, then gave their daughter a look that said “It’s up to you,” and hurriedly followed Mr. Su.
