"You, you actually said that to me, hmph!" Mu Cheng protested, but his protest was feeble.

"I wouldn't say that. How would you say that you got hurt from a fight with a gangster?"

Mu Cheng begged in a low voice, then revealed a wronged expression as he looked at Zi Ling, as if she was a pitiful child.

"Look at your expression. You can still laugh even though you're injured."

Zi Ling patted her chest lightly and heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at Mu Cheng's complacent look, her anger started to rise.

"Don't you want to know how I got injured?" Mu Cheng looked at Zi Ling very mysteriously.

"Quickly tell me how you managed to injure yourself. I'm very curious. After all, no one has asked for trouble yet."

Zi Ling seemed to understand and quickly asked.

"Don't look at me like that. Do you think I'm stupid? If I wasn't forced, I would have hurt myself. What a joke."

Mu Cheng was extremely dissatisfied with Zi Ling's gaze and shouted in protest, but what she got back was Zi Ling's whites of her eyes.

"Look, what is this?" Mu Cheng gave an embarrassed smile. After he finished speaking, Mu Cheng seemed to have formed an aura around him, attracting everything in his surroundings and causing them to float in the air.

"Eh, how did you do that?"

Zi Ling looked at Mu Cheng in shock, because the key to cultivating was being able to control things with one's mind.

"Haha, I'm very smart, right? It was this battle that allowed me to break through. I thought I would still need to wait a long time, but I didn't expect that I would have already done it."

The more Mu Cheng said, the more pleased he was with himself.

"Look at you, you are so weak, do you think this is enough? "This is just someone who has just Awakened, someone who has just entered the realm of cultivation."

Although Mu Cheng successfully broke through, Zi Ling did not praise him because she knew that Mu Cheng had a Mysterious Heaven Jade and his future achievements were limitless. Thus, at this time, she not only wanted him to know the difficulty of cultivating, but also wanted Mu Cheng to know the cruelty of cultivating.

"Tsk, after taking this crucial step, wouldn't my cultivation level have skyrocketed in the future?" Mu Cheng disdainfully said, revealing a proud aura.

"Hmph, do you think it's so easy to cultivate. Immortal cultivation, what do you mean by cultivation? Do you understand?"

Zi Ling asked in response, her eyes looking at Mu Cheng. Although she did not say it explicitly, Zi Ling's attitude had already explained everything, and that was to not be arrogant, and to not continue on this journey would be even more arduous.

"Hey, Zi Ling, since everyone is so familiar with each other, can you not look at me with that ice-cold gaze? "I can't work hard to cultivate."

Mu Cheng looked at Zi Ling's cold eyes and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, so she opened her mouth to discuss with her.

"Let's not talk about other things first. Answer my question first." After hearing Mu Cheng's words, Zi Ling calmed his emotions and said calmly.

"Cultivate! Didn't I cultivate to the heavens and become a deity?" Mu Cheng replied in a very childish manner.

"What is man in this world, and what is Immortal?" Zi Ling continued to ask.

If you are an Immortal, you don't have to die. Mu Cheng replied without thinking.

"Then why do we cultivate?" Zi Ling repeated.

"Of course it's to become a deity and then not die." This time, Mu Cheng thought about it.

"Since you understand that nothing in this world can survive, this is the rule of the heavens. If we want to cultivate, then we must fight with the heavens for our lives. Could it be that the heavens will let you live forever?"

Zi Ling looked at Mu Cheng indifferently. Seeing Mu Cheng's look of pondering, he was slightly happy in his heart.

"This... Could it be that you are going against the heavens? "

Mu Cheng had always thought that humans had to follow the path of the heavens, and now that he was told that Mu Cheng had to go against the will of the heavens, Mu Cheng began to hesitate.

Zi Ling did not disturb Mu Cheng. Instead, she allowed Mu Cheng to slowly understand that cultivation was a struggle against the heavens, so it was impossible for one to not have perseverance.

After a while, Mu Cheng's mother returned. She looked at Zi Ling and Mu Cheng who were silent, and thought that her son had angered her teacher.

"Teacher Zi Ling, this child has always been like this, don't lower yourself to the same level as him. Sometimes, when he likes to be lost in thought, he can't pull anyone back."

Mu Cheng's mother said. As she said this, Mu Cheng's mother chuckled, easing the awkward atmosphere.

"Hehe, it's fine. I'm already used to it. The school still has some matters to take care of. I'll come over to visit Mu Cheng tomorrow."

Zi Ling stood up and was about to leave, but Mu Cheng's mother wanted to urge him to stay and eat dinner there, but Zi Ling refused. In the end, Mu Cheng's mother still sent Zi Ling out.

"Xiao Cheng, are you sick? Why are your eyes so lifeless? "Did you hurt your eyes, or did you have a problem with your head?"

When his mother returned, she couldn't help but ask when she saw Mu Cheng still in a daze.

Mu Cheng's mother had an anxious expression on her face, because Mu Cheng was always like this, causing her to feel uneasy.

The mother's words instantly interrupted Mu Cheng's train of thoughts. Mu Cheng, who was originally very angry, raised his head and saw the concern in his mother's eyes. The anger within his heart instantly vanished.

"Mom, didn't the doctor already say that everything was fine? I'm just thinking about something. Can you please not disturb me? "

Mu Cheng could only compromise with his mother.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then what are you thinking about? Can you tell Mom? " Mu Cheng's mother casually asked.

"Mom, I'm already an adult, I should have some privacy, right?" Mu Cheng said in dissatisfaction as he lost his patience.

"What kind of adult are you? You'll forever be a child in my mother's eyes. Since you don't want to say it, then mom won't ask anymore."

After Mu Cheng's mother finished speaking, she sat to the side and didn't disturb Mu Cheng.

Mu Cheng continued to ponder about what had just happened. Since he was called an immortal, then the path to heaven must be filled with dangers.

Perhaps there were also unforeseen obstacles. These were all things that must be experienced during the cultivation process, and everyone had to experience them. Otherwise, there wouldn't be just one person in a million capable of cultivating.

This first trial was already difficult for the crowd, let alone the later stages. Thinking of this, Mu Cheng felt that the road of cultivation was even more terrifying than this. Thinking like this, Mu Cheng felt that he was still young. Since he had already stepped into the world of cultivators, he had a heart full of unwillingness, but since the heavens had given Mu Cheng this opportunity, why would Mu Cheng give up?

Thinking of this, Mu Cheng's thoughts were clear. It wasn't that the heavens didn't allow mortals to cultivate, but that mortals had their own path to follow.

Since his predecessors could do it, then he, Mu Cheng, must also do it. Even if there were more difficulties, he still had to cultivate. This cultivation wasn't only for himself, but also to protect the people around him.

Mu Cheng couldn't help but be curious, and then he gathered his consciousness, wanting to see through this weapon. However, a green bolt of lightning immediately shot out from the Mysterious Heaven Jade, straight into Mu Cheng's eyes, as if there was a life of its own.

At this time, Mu Cheng seemed to have been electrocuted, and he stood there in a daze. It was because of his curiosity this time, that Mu Cheng's eyes seemed to have an additional rune within them. This rune was fleeting, but it was deeply engraved in Mu Cheng's mind.

"Thunder Eradication." Mu Cheng muttered to himself.

With regards to all this, Mu Cheng did not tell anyone else because he felt that he relied on his own survival or even defeating others, so it was better for him not to let others know. Thus, Mu Cheng did not even tell Zi Ling anything.

On this day, Mu Cheng was discharged from the hospital. According to Mu Cheng's mother, he should stay in the hospital for a few more days.

However, Mu Changsheng advocated for Mu Cheng to return home as Mu Cheng's family was an ordinary family that could not afford to spend all the money they had spent in the hospital.

Mu Cheng naturally understood that even though he was currently rich, it didn't mean that he could take it out. If Mu Cheng took out a million, then Mu Cheng's parents would definitely suspect Mu Cheng. Just where did this million come from?

Since his father told him to leave the hospital, Mu Cheng didn't want to stay in the hospital either. After all, Mu Cheng really didn't want to smell the smell of the hospital anymore.

"Ah …" The air outside is so fresh, I haven't smelled such a fresh air for a long time. "

Mu Cheng sighed as he walked out of the hospital.

"Slow down, your injuries are just nice, you're this crazy." Mu Cheng's mother scolded him from behind.

"Mom, look. I'm fine now. I'm fine. Don't worry, your son is well."

Mu Cheng continued to run as he spoke, as if he was trying to get rid of all the bad luck from the previous week.

"Ai, this child is always so lively and active. It just so happens that he's just exercising like this."

Mu Cheng's mother complained from behind.

However, it was hard to conceal the smile on her mother's face because Mu Cheng running like this meant that Mu Cheng was completely healed.

"I'm finally home. I'm going back to my room."

Mu Cheng immediately ran towards his room once he entered, but couldn't do anything as his father, Mu Changsheng, was already waiting for him in the living room.

"You brat, come back here. I have something to talk to you about."

Seeing Mu Cheng running into the room, Mu Changsheng immediately shouted out.

"Dad, I'm really tired, just let me go back to my room to rest."

Mu Cheng looked at the stiff face Mu Changsheng had and felt fear in his heart, so he became timid when he spoke at this time.
