Chapter 2: Abandoning Literature for Martial Arts

Today, the luck is actually quite good

This ... ...

Xifeng

Jiang He looked at the testing site above and had already understood the reason for the test failure. However, at this moment, what significance does it hold?

Is she... the frail-looking girl in the photo in her father's room? He had never imagined that, in the face of crisis, she would protect herself in such a manner! A pregnant mother, collapsed under the laboratory table, just to give her unborn child a glimmer of hope!

Jiang Qin's urgent reminder

Quick, hide

He cannot come in

Quickly, notify the army

I can be two years later than others

Isn't your identity enough?

This ... ...

After a long time, the river opens its mouth

Buzz

That is the best university in the country! It is a sacred place for cultivators! It is a location that countless cultivators have long dreamed of, where it is said that the concentration of dark energy is shockingly high, allowing one to evolve simply by lying down. However, at the same time, it is also the place with the strongest combat power in the country, unshakeable by anyone!

The scene was enveloped in silence

The river gently inquired

Is the country not taking any action

I will.

Several scientists, with their mustaches bristling and eyes wide open, said, "We respect you as the team leader, but you cannot do such things; there will be consequences from above. I must bring Jiang He into the laboratory."

Jiang Qin let out a sigh

The shrill alarm suddenly sounded, filling the entire laboratory workspace with ringing. The red alarm light flashed, and everyone's expression changed.

Experimental location: Mars

What does the guard do for a living

Jiang Qin said coldly

Wherever it passes, there is a scene of bloodshed

Jiang Qin handed a piece of paper to Jiang He

On that day, Jiang He returned to the city. At this moment, the third year of high school had just begun, and this time, he had only one path before him—a straight road to the heavens—cultivation

Jiang Qin tried to keep his tone as neutral as possible, but there was still a slight tremor in his voice. "By the time we arrived, it was already too late; everyone was dead. She collapsed under the laboratory table, trying her best to hide her belly from the enemy, concealing your presence, which ultimately allowed you to survive"

The laboratory is in a state of chaos

I understand

Jiang He opened his eyes wide suddenly

The river opened, revealing his test scores above.

That is the scent of death

The West Peak's pace remains slow, yet it resembles the leisurely stroll of death

Let me take a look

Mother

The rivers were shocked beyond measure

Several scientists are puffing their cheeks and glaring; this is clearly not a lack of talent, but rather a display of genius! "If we could bring the rivers into our laboratory, the progress of our experimental research would be at least 50% faster, and in the future, it is even possible that a legendary scientist may emerge. This would undoubtedly be a milestone worth recording."

Alas

Jiang Qin slammed the table, and the scientists were infuriated

Do not forget the existence of the ferocious beasts

Well

Upon seeing this, everyone immediately changed their expressions drastically

Jiang He watched helplessly as his two years of research成果 were shattered in this blow

Give

Frequently assassinating genius cultivators, scientists, and destroying research materials, the success rate of mission execution exceeds 80%, with the number of destroyed research bases being countless

Jiang Qin asked softly

The two nations of humanity appear to be at peace on the surface, yet they are engaged in mutual checks and suppression, while human science is precisely the area that each side focuses on attacking. In the shadows, the emergence of genius assassins is relentless. Although the official stance of the Eternal Night Kingdom is to issue a wanted notice for Xifeng, everyone knows that Xifeng is one of them.

The terrifying sound wave tsunami sweeps in

Xifeng revealed a faint smile, his figure ethereal, transforming into a fleeting shadow that vanished without a trace within a few seconds, leaving no evidence behind

An elderly scientist stepped forward, smiling as he looked at the river. "Young man, don't worry about your father; he doesn't want you, but I do. Rest assured, today I will help you with this matter. Come, let me tell you what just happened..."

A scientist uttered his name, and everyone turned pale as death

"You have the audacity to say he is my son after not catching up with them for a year?"

There, hundreds of guard corpses lay scattered, as a young man in a trench coat slowly approached through the bloodshed. His expression was stern, and an aura of terror emanated from him, like a massive storm, irresistibly drawing people in, only to tear them apart!

With a glance at his son, Jiang Qin took a puff of smoke, the glowing tip igniting like incense burned for the deceased, "Cultivation is the path that truly belongs to you"

Snap!

... ...

In general circumstances, during enemy attacks, the guard team has always dealt with the situation discreetly without affecting scientific experiments. Such a situation where an alarm sounds directly has never occurred. A red alert is the highest level of warning; what exactly has happened, and where are the guards?

Quick, cover your ears

He has already broken many precedents today, completely different from his usual elegance.

Countless people died on the spot

A researcher swallowed hard and said nervously, "Our security level is very high. Although it is made of glass, it is bulletproof. There is only one person..."

In the screen

Jiang Qin sneered

Jiang Qin said with some sarcasm, "You must understand that our relationship with the Eternal Night Kingdom is not only one of hostility but also involves mutual interests. After that incident, the Eternal Night Kingdom made concessions in other collaborations. The deaths of 362 scientists were classified as an experimental accident. The truth will forever remain hidden"

The rivers murmur to themselves

Jiang Qin walked over and sighed: "Why do you think there are so few scientists? Why is the progress of science and technology so slow? It is because even if something is researched and developed, it cannot be safeguarded! Our country does not lack resources to cultivate scientists; what is lacking are guardians! True strong individuals!"

Is it reality

Who allowed you to come in

Jiang Qin spoke softly, trying not to let any emotions show, "That time, the entire laboratory was destroyed, 362 researchers died, including your mother"

Experiment Code: SDMT - 096

The river gazes into the distance

What a strange word it is to him

Roar

The laboratory suddenly trembled, shaking the ground and mountains

scoff

Old Jiang, how can you do this

Although he did not know why his father was living in seclusion in Sanhe City, he was well aware that his father's capabilities were undoubtedly among the ranks of top scientists

The river smiled, its gaze sweeping over the ruins before it, the smile somewhat cold

That year, she was only 20 years old

Mars

Jiang Qin gazed into the distance, surprisingly calm. "If I had known, I would have avenged myself long ago. There are no clues, no enemies, nothing at all, just like a dream, a nightmare. The remaining files are sealed within the Chenxing Academy, heavily protected, and I have no right to access them."

If you had no talent, I would have shot you against the wall back then

He knows that place

Jiang He candidly stated that ordinary students begin their studies in the first year of high school and should be preparing for the college entrance examination in their third year. However, he has already spent two years in school doing nothing significant due to his research commitments

This terrifying blow has set the entire laboratory's progress back by at least five years

The glass door of the laboratory opened once again, and Jiang He unexpectedly walked in at that moment

Jiang He clenched his fists tightly, his body trembling slightly

Countless materials have turned to ashes

The river feels off

Countless people, in a state of panic, leaned against the wall

Buzzing

Who is it

Not enough

Jiang Qin's tone became a bit more cheerful, "Xifeng is a typical destructive spy. Fortunately, his task this time is to gather information, not to kill"

However, how could it be possible to make it in time? Countless elderly scientists died on the spot, and even those in the dark passage struggled to cover their ears. The old scientist who had just spoken to Jiang He had blood oozing from his ears and collapsed to the ground, shockingly killed by the sheer force of the shockwave

Jiang He looked at the researchers in the distance

Wuwu---

Do you still think scientists are powerful now

Jiang Qin glared.

Only a few young women are crying, while many researchers, although grieving, still appear relatively normal; perhaps they have long been accustomed to such scenes

Xifeng coldly stepped into the laboratory, watching the scientists fleeing in all directions, a strange excitement flashing in his eyes, he opened his mouth wide and let out a roar

Xifeng has left

18 years ago

Somewhat bewildered, after all, no matter how intelligent or composed he may be, he is still just a child who remains in the ivory tower

In his mind, being a scientist had always been the safest profession, with good pay and high status, and even when going out, there were countless bodyguards following for free. However, the scene before him now reshaped his understanding of this profession; even through the glass door, Jiang He could sense the acrid smell of blood!

Old Jiang, do not go too far

Boom

Countless people screamed

How could this happen

This time it was quite fast

The river nods slightly, "However, do you really think I possess such talent for cultivation just because you are urging me to practice?"

Tester: Jiang He

The eyes feel very sore, and Jiang He suddenly wants to cry

Jiang He stared blankly at this scene

I have encountered this situation once

A group of scientists is excited

Even if I am not the team leader, I am still his father

He arrived with grace and left with elegance, leaving behind only death and ruins! He appeared for no more than a minute, like a nightmare, annihilating the guard team, with casualties among the scientists exceeding half, and the most valuable data was taken away directly! The acrid smell of blood and the burning gunpowder jolted Jiang He from the dreamlike state of the ivory tower.

Jiang Qin lit a cigarette; he rarely smokes

Boom

A massive lion's paw suddenly appeared in the void, accompanied by the right hand of the Western Peak crashing down, directly crushing the entire research base

Those scientists in his heart, those highly esteemed scientists, are like lambs awaiting slaughter, fleeing in a state of disarray, even lacking any strength to resist

What is going on

The river tore the test results to shreds and with a wave of his hand, a gust of wind swept by, lifting countless white scraps of paper that floated amidst the ruins, seemingly mourning for the deceased.

Is that so

Jiang Qin self-deprecatingly remarked, "Scientists are the most esteemed profession in the country; they can improve the environment, create the future, and possess unimaginable status and wealth. However, this is only within the country. Once international issues arise, scientists become nothing more than a decorative mascot hanging on the wall"

The military aircraft have arrived, reinforcements are here

I do not agree

Enemy attack

Xifeng, you must not die too early

Jiang Qin suddenly pressed a button, and a hidden door appeared on the wall behind him. Several scientists quickly took cover inside. The hidden door was one-way transparent, allowing visibility of the outside scene. When the enormous lion's paw descended before Jiang He, the entire experimental base was left in ruins

Jiang He closed his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into his palms, leaving behind blood

Jiang He took a deep breath and said, "Dad, I know I have lost. Even if I have to go back and cultivate, I accept that. However, before I leave, I want to know where the problem lies."

Chengxing Academy

If you wish to stay, I will not stop you

The river only seeks an answer, yet this is something it cannot provide

Xifeng, the super spy of the Eternal Night Kingdom

Hmph, there is no problem at all

Have you made a decision

I do not know

Hehe

Test completed: 56 seconds

Combat power is off the charts

His eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking. The intertwining of dreams and reality, the collision of truth and lies, in his mind, a strange little flame called 'becoming stronger' was burning, boiling. Perhaps one day, it will transform into a raging fire, consuming the entire world

Quickly, Xifeng retrieved a storage chip from the ruins, "Mission accomplished"

I came by myself

Be careful

... ...

Jiang He approached the computer screen and brought up the surveillance footage of the experimental area

This is a formidable powerhouse

Jiang Qin smiled faintly

Who is that

At that time, she was already nine months pregnant, yet she continued to work on the front lines

Xifeng raised his hand and applied a slight pressure
