I have Sharingan in another world
Chapter 4 The most ruthless imperial family
Even more excited than Zhou Shu was Zhou Ye. Zhou Ye felt the fluctuations within Zhou Shu's body and couldn't help but shed tears. "My dear brother, I didn't take good care of your son back then, which caused him to lose all his foundation. Now he's back!"
Because of Zhou Mu's sacrifice and Zhou Shu's bloodline power dissipating due to injury, Zhou Ye has felt guilty ever since, losing his appetite and trying every possible way to restore Zhou Shu's bloodline. Otherwise, how could he face his deceased brother?
Zhou Qing'er was stunned when she sensed Zhou Shu's presence. Her brother Zhou Shu had succeeded. Qing'er knew that her brother Zhou Shu would return, and tears involuntarily streamed down her cheeks.
No one knows how Zhou Shu has gotten through these years, what humiliations, ridicule, and contempt he has endured. Someone who was once at the pinnacle of the younger generation suddenly fell from grace without any chance of recovery. Such a sense of loss inevitably led the original owner of Zhou Shu's body to choose suicide.
However, the humiliation of the past is no more, and Zhou Shu felt that the last bit of obsession of the original owner of this body had completely dissipated.
"Uncle, Qing'er, let's go back!" Zhou Shu stood up and bowed to Zhou Ye, saying, "Uncle has caused you trouble during this time. Now my bloodline has been restored."
"Good good!"
"Butler, return to the manor and tell the kitchen to prepare wine and food. Tonight, I'm going to drink myself into a stupor with my nephew. Hahaha..." Zhou Ye laughed heartily.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shu and Zhou Qing'er exchanged a glance and smiled wryly, thinking to themselves: "Tonight we're going to have to eat another unpalatable meal. How awful..."
The moon was very round in the night sky of the Spirit Pattern Continent tonight, and its white light fell to the earth like a veil. The uncle and nephew had already drunk several rounds of wine and eaten several dishes.
“Zhou Shu, now that your strength has recovered, the spot at Luo Shen Academy is naturally yours. Let Wang Ba talk about it next year.” Zhou Ye chuckled. “That old bastard Wang Ying, he’s been so restless these past few years because of his seniority and age, does he think I’m blind?”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shu laughed and said, "Uncle, forget it. Every year, Qingye City competes for the qualification to go to Luoshen Academy through competitions. We'll just have to rely on our own abilities then."
Seeing Zhou Shu's regained confidence brings another wave of emotion. Time flies. What would Zhou Shu's father be like now? Back then, Zhou Mu sacrificed himself, and Zhou Shu was just an ignorant child.
“The Wang family descendants are quite promising these days. Wang Ba’s older brother, Wang Xiong, is already a third-rank expert and is studying at the Luo Shen Academy. We really can’t do anything to the Wang family in Qingye City now.” Zhou Ye shook his head and said, “The monsters and foreign races in the Lost Lands have been quiet these past few years, probably because they are still wary of your father’s lingering power. If we fall out with the Wang family and fight to the death, the residents of Qingye City will be the ones who suffer the most when the beast tide comes.”
“Uncle, you are the city lord after all, and you really need to put in a lot of effort in all aspects. As for me, you don’t need to worry. There’s no need to give me the spot to Luoshen Academy directly, so as not to give the Wang family any reason to talk.” Zhou Shu smiled and said, “Now that Qingye City has recovered after the beast tide, it is also thanks to you, Uncle. I wonder how many spots are available for Luoshen Academy each year?”
"Luoshen Academy is one of the three major academies on the Spirit Pattern Continent, producing countless powerful individuals. Only top-tier cities have three recommendation slots," Zhou Ye sighed. "Although Qingye City is no longer as prosperous as it once was, Luoshen Academy still respects Qingye City's status as a former metropolis and has granted us three slots."
Seeing Zhou Shu's puzzled and bitter expression, Zhou Ye smiled and said, "There's no such thing as a free lunch. One of the three spots each year is reserved for the Imperial City. So Qingye City actually only has a handful of spots."
“Although our Qingye City is already a lawless place, it is still one of the few major cities on the Spirit Pattern Continent. The one in the Imperial City is just saying on the surface that our Qingye City is abandoned. Let’s see who can’t hold back and makes the first move.” Zhou Ye laughed: “The Imperial City’s annual subsidies to our Qingye City are still quite sufficient, otherwise the city’s population would be half of what it is now.”
"Then why didn't the one in the imperial city send troops to support us when Qingye City was experiencing the beast tide?" Zhou Shu asked, even more puzzled. "Could it be that the one who intended for this city to become a truly abandoned city?"
Zhou Ye remained silent upon hearing this.
The most ruthless imperial family.
In his mind, the hundreds of thousands of people in this city were nothing more than lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Zhou Shu hated this feeling of being bound by fate yet unable to escape.
Seeing the change in Zhou Shu's expression, Zhou Ye smiled and said, "Zhou Shu, in this dog-eat-dog world, only by being strong can you be truly free. The laws and rules of this world are only used to restrain the weak. The only true lawless place exists based on your strength!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shu was taken aback.
He cupped his hands towards Zhou Ye and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle."
Zhou Ye smiled with satisfaction: "Go back and get some rest. The competition will be in half a month. Prepare well."
"Uncle, don't worry, I'll head back now." Zhou Shu bowed to Zhou Ye and then went straight back to his residence.
As soon as Zhou Shu returned to his residence, he eagerly awakened his bloodline. The white mark on his left arm glowed, and his left fist was enveloped in a layer of white flames. Zhou Shu felt a warm sensation throughout his body. He felt that his speed and strength had both reached a new level.
This is the power of bloodline.
Zhou Shu sat cross-legged, feeling the flow of blood in his body. Suddenly, he noticed a black spot near his heart. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a cluster of black flames.
Generally, people who have awakened their bloodline will know its name and type at the moment of awakening. Some lucky individuals may even acquire bloodline martial arts techniques based on their inherited memories upon awakening.
Those are all martial arts techniques belonging to one's own bloodline. After fusing with the power of one's own bloodline, they will be even more adept at using them. They will also become stronger as one's strength increases.
For example, Zhou Shu's original bloodline, the Azure Flame Bloodline, included a set of Azure Flame Palm techniques, which were quite powerful. Although he was only a fifth-rank cultivator back then, he was basically on par with any other fifth-rank cultivator thanks to this palm technique.
However, Zhou Shu's reawakened bloodline was rather peculiar; it had no accompanying bloodline martial arts techniques, and he didn't even know its name. He could only use the bloodline power through the bloodline mark on his left arm.
"Ding... The Six Paths System has issued a mission to reach the fifth rank within 3 days. Host, do you wish to accept?"
Reaching the fifth rank within three days? You might as well kill me...
"Can I choose not to accept it? What will happen if I don't accept it?"
"You can choose not to accept. If you do not accept, Heaven will automatically determine that the host's mission has failed and eliminate them!" The emotionless robot voice came again.
Damn it, isn't that obvious? Do you even have a choice?
