Chapter 12 The Capitalists Who Cause Great Harm
At this moment, Pingfan and Wang Yuyan, who were in the courtyard, were stunned when they heard Li Tiansheng's words, not understanding what he meant.
After realizing what was happening, Wang Yuyan glared at her husband reproachfully and said in an annoyed tone.
"Explain yourself clearly. Who can understand you if you keep saying it like that?"
Seeing that Wang Yuyan was angry, Li Tiansheng smiled awkwardly, coughed lightly, and slowly said.
"That means an ordinary spiritual root is a heavenly spiritual root, but the meridians are useless, so one cannot cultivate and cannot sense the surrounding spiritual energy."
After saying that, he was taken aback when he saw that Wang Yuyan was still glaring at him. Then he pretended to be indifferent and frowned.
"However, judging from your meridians, they weren't forcibly destroyed, but rather caused by poisoning."
At this moment, Pingfan also realized what was happening, looked at Li Tiansheng, and asked in confusion.
"Poisoning? Could it be that Death Fruit?"
He thought that it might have been the death fruit he ate when he first transmigrated, due to hunger, that caused his meridians to become useless.
Even an ordinary body can't help but tremble; it's truly a case of squandering a winning hand.
However, upon hearing the ordinary answer, Li Tiansheng shook his head and frowned.
"No, it's because you've been taking a slow-acting poison for a long time that you not only didn't die after eating the Death Fruit, but you were resurrected."
"I just don't know who harbors such deep hatred for you, to have you given a slow-acting poison since childhood. It's not fatal, but it can alter your constitution."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuyan looked stunned, her eyes filled with deep heartache as she gazed at Pingfan.
I never imagined that my life before being ordinary would be like this. It must have been very difficult, so I never wanted to say much when asked.
However, Pingfan was slightly taken aback after hearing Li Tiansheng's words. It turned out that he was not immortal, but rather immune to poison.
However, Pingfan was very puzzled. Although his father was not good to him, he would not poison him, after all, that world was a society governed by the rule of law.
If they are found out, they will not only face imprisonment, but also be scorned by the world.
But who would have such great ability to poison him from the moment he was born?
Faces kept flashing through his ordinary mind, but he rejected them all.
Suddenly, Pingfan thought of the person most likely to do such a thing: the capitalist.
Think about all those toxic foods that have been exposed; aren't they all like slow poisoning?
Furthermore, not long before the ordinary time travel, some leftover food was introduced for ordinary people to consume.
Only capitalists who will stop at nothing for profit have the ability to give everyone a slow-acting poison from birth.
Thinking of this, Pingfan couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was truly like holding a powerful sword but being unable to use it.
Seeing Pingfan's expression, Li Tiansheng and Wang Yuyan knew that he knew who it was.
Li Tiansheng looked at Pingfan and shook his head helplessly. He felt sorry for Pingfan's plight and lamented the injustice of fate, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
On the other hand, Wang Yuyan looked furious and asked through gritted teeth.
"Pingfan, tell your aunt, who is so vicious as to make you take slow-acting poison since you were a child?"
The ordinary man, who was inwardly wryly smiling, was slightly taken aback when he suddenly heard Wang Yuyan's words.
Unexpectedly, after only half a year of getting along, Wang Yuyan already regarded him as family and seemed eager to seek justice for him.
But how can I tell her this? I can't exactly say that he's a time traveler from another world, a merchant from that world, who made him consume a slow-acting poison from a young age for profit.
Pingfan looked at Wang Yuyan, who seemed determined to get justice for him, and shook his head with a wry smile, but did not say a word.
Seeing the expression on Pingfan's face, Wang Yuyan was stunned for a moment. Then she thought of a possibility and looked at Pingfan with heartache, saying softly.
"Since you're unwilling to talk about it, then your aunt won't press you any further."
After saying that, Wang Yuyan changed the subject and chuckled.
"However, I see that you are honest and upright. If you don't mind, how about becoming my son?"
Li Tiansheng, standing to the side, looked at his wife with a surprised expression after hearing her words.
When Pingfan heard Wang Yuyan's words and saw her serious expression, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
Although he knew that Wang Yuyan might have misunderstood him and thought that his parents had given him a slow-acting poison since childhood.
But after only six months of getting to know each other, she had gone to this extent, leaving someone who had never experienced the ordinariness of family affection at a loss for words.
Seeing Pingfan like this, Wang Yuyan assumed he was unwilling and pretended to be angry.
"What? You don't want to acknowledge me as your mother?"
Upon hearing this, Pingfan quickly waved his hand and said urgently.
"No, it's just that I'm only a mortal, and I might not be able to stay with you for long."
At this moment, Pingfan also realized that even if he couldn't cultivate immortality, his journey to this world wasn't entirely meaningless.
For example, now he has met Wang Yuyan and her husband, allowing him to experience the feeling of being loved.
Upon hearing Pingfan's words, Wang Yuyan understood what he meant: mortals only have a lifespan of a short hundred years.
As long as a cultivator continuously breaks through realms, it is equivalent to having an infinite lifespan.
Furthermore, as cultivators break through to higher realms and go into seclusion, the lifespan of ordinary people may come to an end.
Having understood what Pingfan was thinking, Wang Yuyan looked at Pingfan with great heartache and said softly.
"Since that's not the case, then it's settled. From now on, we will be your parents."
After saying that, Wang Yuyan didn't give Pingfan a chance to speak. She reached out and pinched her husband beside her, signaling him to express his opinion.
Li Tiansheng felt a pain in his waist and quickly expressed his concern to Pingfan.
"That's right, from now on we're your parents, don't think about the future."
Upon hearing this, a single tear silently rolled down Pingfan's cheek. He knelt on the ground and solemnly proclaimed.
"Father, Mother"
Seeing Pingfan's actions, Wang Yuyan nodded in satisfaction, quickly helped him up, and said.
"From now on, settle down here in peace. Even if you can't cultivate immortality, don't be discouraged."
He nodded heavily, his heart filled with happiness.
After comforting Pingfan for a while, Wang Yuyan returned to her room with Li Tiansheng.
Upon returning to the room, Li Tiansheng looked at Wang Yuyan and frowned as he spoke.
"Is this really a good idea? After all, we also need to focus on improving our cultivation to prevent any unforeseen circumstances."
However, upon hearing Li Tiansheng's words, Wang Yuyan glared at him and said...
"He's already in such a miserable state, so what's wrong with him being able to feel family affection in his lifetime?"
After saying that, Wang Yuyan remembered the bitter expression on Pingfan's face, which also contained a hint of relief, and felt a pang of heartache.
She was a mother herself; how could she bear to see such an expression?
It's not that Wang Yuyan is overly compassionate; if Pingfan were the kind of treacherous and vicious person, she would not hesitate to kill him.
However, Li Tiansheng's next words stunned Wang Yuyan, and then she was somewhat delighted.
"His meridians may have gradually recovered without him even realizing it after he ate the Death Fruit."
