the rise of the useless son-in-law of a wealthy family looking for herbs in the forest
After being treated in the Xia family hospital for several weeks, Su Jian finally showed signs of recovery. His body, once weak, was starting to regain strength, although his face remained pale. At that time, Lengyi, who had been by Su Jian's side throughout his recovery, began taking on more family missions, leaving her husband to rest at home.For Su Jian, recovery did not mean life would get any easier. His status in the Xia family as the "undesirable son-in-law" remained the same. The Xia family was a large family of cultivators, full of traditions, pride, and power. Su Jian, who was looked down upon for his mediocre cultivation abilities, was always seen as unworthy to accompany Lengyi. The servants and members of the Xia family did not hesitate to treat him like a lowly servant.One morning, as the sun just began to peek through the window, Su Jian woke up early. The day felt colder than usual, but he felt better than he had in previous days. Just as he finished getting dressed,
the rise of the useless son-in-law of a wealthy family save the poor snake
Su Jian stood frozen, not daring to move. He knew that the creature before him must be an extremely dangerous beast. However, before he could even think of running away, his eyes were drawn to something even more strange."This creature is so large; I don't know what to do..." he thought to himself.Su Jian decided to hide and observe the situation.A small snake, black in color with a single red eye on its forehead, quickly slithered across the ground in a hurried motion. The snake seemed to be trying to escape, but fresh blood was flowing from a large wound on its body. Su Jian swallowed hard. The snake was badly wounded. He could see how weak its body was as it moved, desperately trying to avoid the large creature that was closely following it."Don’t come here..." Su Jian muttered softly, afraid that the large creature would attack the snake. However, the snake seemed to have no other choice. It continued to crawl, leaving a trail of blood along its path.The large creature, which

The snake, which had been so small just moments ago, had now transformed and appeared as a majestic creature, gazing at him with eyes full of wisdom. Su Jian felt an extraordinary presence before him, something far greater than himself. He furrowed his brow in disbelief, rubbing his eyes repeatedly and slapping his cheeks hard to prove to himself that what stood before him was not a dream."Human, do not be afraid. I will not eat you," a soft yet authoritative voice echoed in Su Jian's mind. Su Jian was startled, his eyes wide open."You saved me," the voice continued, "The poison from the bite you received has had an extraordinary effect. Your blood changed me, returning me to my true form."Su Jian felt dizzy, but he still tried to listen carefully. "Who... who are you?" he asked, his voice weak."I am the spirit of the legendary Golden Dragon, a creature sought after by many cultivators. However, you—a mere mortal—helped me, even after I bit you. And now, I owe you my life."Su Jia

His head struggled to shake in refusal at the serpent's actions, his mouth now exhausted from being forced open for so long.“Very well, I will do this quickly, so I hope you can accept it, my lord,” said the serpent. Not long after, its tail released another torrent of liquid.Su Jian’s eyes widened in shock as the liquid pouring from the serpent's tail made him choke and cry, some of it even escaping through his nose. Worse still, the tail’s tip felt as though it was deep in his stomach, spraying liquid inside.“Ah, finally the contract is sealed, my lord. Accept my oath of loyalty… My goodness, what happened to you!?”Su Jian coughed violently, “Thank goodness it’s finally over…” he muttered.It had been an unimaginable ordeal for him. ‘I never want to form a contract with any beast again. They’re still just beasts in the end,’ Su Jian thought bitterly.“Ah, right!”He abruptly sat up, sweat covering his face as he glared at the serpent.“What is it, my lord?” the serpent asked, ti

Su Jian and Fenglong continued their journey after finding the rare herbal plant. However, the task was far from over. Su Jian still needed to gather other plants, and Fenglong—the spiritual serpent who now bore a name—remained steadfastly by his side.“We must go deeper into the forest,” Fenglong suggested, his voice like a whispering breeze. “There are plants that only grow in certain places. But dangers lurk there.”Su Jian scoffed. “As I thought… This forest is full of surprises.”With heavy steps, Su Jian followed Fenglong, who led the way. The rain had stopped, but the ground remained damp, and a thin mist hung in the air, making the forest feel alive. Su Jian could sense the growing spiritual aura the further they traveled. Fenglong moved calmly, his massive body weaving through the towering trees as though he knew every secret path.“Fenglong,” Su Jian called, wiping sweat from his brow, “what danger are you talking about? Other spiritual beasts?”Fenglong paused, his tail twi

.On a dark and silent night, Su Jian walked alone through the forest on his way back to his residence after completing the task given by Shen Wei. The pale moonlight cast eerie shadows across the trees, making the surroundings feel ominous. The night wind blew cold, carrying with it the damp scent of earth and wet leaves. Su Jian walked cautiously, gripping his short sword tightly, ever watchful for any lurking danger.Unbeknownst to him, a pair of glowing red eyes were watching from the darkness behind a giant tree. A high-level spiritual beast—a massive black wolf with shimmering horns and a terrifying aura—moved like a shadow, stealthily closing in. Its breath hissed faintly, its tongue flicking as it tasted the air, and its sharp teeth glimmered menacingly. This was no ordinary spirit; it was Lurong, a soul-devouring spirit beast known for its cunning and lethal nature.Completely unaware of the danger, Su Jian continued on his way. Suddenly, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed b

"Almost there, I have to hold on!"Su Jian quickened his steps along the rocky path, his breath ragged. In his hand was a pouch containing the herbs he had spent days gathering. His body was covered in mud, his clothes torn in several places—a testament to the struggles he endured to find the rare herbs. The evening air blanketed the Xia family estate as he finally reached the grand gate adorned with golden dragon carvings."Finally here,"Su Jian let out a sigh of relief, but before he could take another step, a haughty voice he knew all too well cut through the air."You're so late!" barked Shen Wei, the head servant of the Xia family, who delighted in tormenting him. "Do you think you can dawdle and waste time just because this task was assigned to you? You're nothing but a lazy fool, Su Jian!"Su Jian clenched his jaw, swallowing his anger, though his face remained calm. He didn’t want to create more trouble, especially as a son-in-law constantly looked down upon by the family. Wi
the rise of the useless son-in-law of a wealthy family father's biggest regret
A few days earlier, Xia Jing had ordered Lengyi to lead a mission to the western border. It was no ordinary task. The conflict with their rival sect was escalating, and the Xia family needed someone who could prove their strength. Lengyi, his most talented daughter in cultivation, was seen as the perfect choice.“You are the strongest among us. You can complete this mission, Lengyi,” he had said back then, full of confidence.Lengyi, despite knowing the risks, never refused her father’s orders. As a cultivator and a loyal daughter, all she ever wanted was to bring pride to her family. But now, her meridians were shattered. All of her potential as a cultivator had disappeared in a single night.The door to the room creaked open slowly. Su Jian stepped inside, his face filled with determination, though fatigue lingered in his eyes. Ever since the incident, he had never left his wife’s side, caring for her tirelessly.“Uncle Xia,” Su Jian called softly but clearly.Xia Jing looked up slo

Damn pig
"Su Jian, clean the pigsty before lunch," a servant said slowly with a commanding tone, not fully focusing on him. The servant always looked satisfied with a smug expression, even though this was the task given to him.Su Jian nodded faintly. "But I..." Before he could finish his sentence, the servant left.Su Jian sighed, "Alright, it's fine. Let's finish this and then have lunch!" he said, trying to motivate himself.The pigsty behind the house looked very dirty. The foul smell stung his nose, and the pigs seemed very impatient to disturb him. Su Jian reluctantly approached the pigsty, carrying the cleaning tools that had been given to him. He hoped to finish the job quickly and return to the house to rest, but the pigs seemed to have other plans.As soon as he opened the pigsty door, the rumbling sound of the pigs filled the air. Several pigs immediately ran back and forth, jumping over each other as if they were racing. Su Jian tried to avoid the large steps taken by the pigs, but

An Optimistic
The night had fallen over the Xia family estate. Stars flickered in the clear sky like scattered diamonds, and a cold breeze blew through the ancient courtyards. Su Jian was sitting on a small wooden stool in the courtyard, a sigh escaping his lips as he watched the moon.“How did I end up here again?” he muttered to himself, scratching his head. He looked at his calloused hands and then at the large family mansion around him. Every day, it felt like he was living in someone else's life—a life filled with cultivators, powerful martial arts, and people who looked at him like he was nothing.The only person who ever seemed to give him any attention—despite the occasional scolding—was Xia Lengyi. His wife, though distant, had defended him more and more lately. Still, Su Jian knew he was out of place here. He didn’t understand cultivation, and no matter how hard he tried, all the complex techniques seemed to bounce off his head like water off a rock.Inside the main hall, Xia Lengyi sat w

a Carelessness
Kediaman keluarga Xia selalu tampak megah di siang hari. Bangunan-bangunan yang diukir dengan indah berdiri tegak, mewujudkan kemegahan keluarga pembudidaya bergengsi yang telah bertahan selama ratusan tahun. Namun, di balik keanggunan itu, suasana hari ini menegangkan. Su Jian berdiri di tengah aula besar keluarga Xia, diapit oleh dua penjaga dengan wajah tegas. Semua tatapan di ruangan itu dipenuhi dengan penghinaan dan hinaan, seolah-olah Su Jian tidak lebih dari seekor serangga yang mengganggu kedamaian mereka.Su Jian, seperti biasa, tampak bingung. Postur tubuhnya tegak, tetapi wajahnya mencerminkan campuran kepanikan dan kepolosan. Kemejanya sedikit kusut, sisa-sisa kekacauan sebelumnya. Pagi itu, saat membersihkan salah satu ruang artefak keluarga Xia, dia secara tidak sengaja menjatuhkan vas kuno yang, tanpa sepengetahuannya, berisi pecahan energi spiritual. Meskipun vas itu telah lama kehilangan fungsinya, insiden itu dengan cepat menyulut kemarahan beberapa anggota keluarga

healing for lengyi
Lengyi took a deep breath, as if feeling the morning air for the first time in a very long time. Her chest felt lighter, unlike the days before. Her head turned slowly, her eyes catching the image of Su Jian sleeping on the chair beside her bed. Su Jian looked exhausted, his head drooping with his body slumped awkwardly. Lengyi smiled faintly at the sight of him, warmth stirring in her heart.“What has he done to end up like this…” she murmured softly, her voice trembling slightly.Lengyi tried to move her body. Her hand lifted, fingers grasping the blanket. There was no pain. Carefully, she tried to sit up. A warmth spread through her body, something she hadn’t felt since returning from the battlefield. There was energy flowing within her, something both foreign and familiar at the same time.Lengyi’s eyes widened in shock. That strength—it was back. She could feel her meridians. The spiritual energy that had once felt empty now swirled gently within her body, like a small river comi

sacrifice the magic pill
Su Jian opened the small wooden box and gazed at the golden pill inside. The pill emitted a faint glow, as though it had a life of its own. Su Jian’s heart pounded with both hope and doubt. Would this pill truly help? Or would it make things worse? But he had no other choice. This was the only hope he had.“Forgive me, Lengyi,” he whispered. “I have to do this. I can’t bear to see you suffer like this…”He gently lifted his wife’s head and carefully slipped the pill into her mouth. He poured small sips of water to help her swallow it. Lengyi blinked faintly, but she was far too weak to fully regain consciousness.Su Jian laid her head back onto the pillow and gripped her hand tightly. “Hold on, Lengyi. Please…”The night grew even quieter. But just as Su Jian began to feel some relief, a cold voice crept into his ears.“What are you doing here, Master?”Su Jian flinched, his head whipping around. He searched for the source of the voice but found nothing. The voice sighed and knocked o

foreigner's speech
Shen Wei scoffed mockingly. “A lowly son-in-law and his useless wife? You think I’m afraid of you?” Yet, in the end, he left with a disgruntled click of his tongue.Su Jian turned to look at Lengyi, who lowered her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’ve only become a burden to you, Su Jian…”Su Jian gripped his wife’s shoulders firmly. “Don’t ever think that. You’re not a burden, Lengyi. I promise I’ll find a way to heal you.”Days passed, and Su Jian began searching tirelessly for ways to heal his wife’s shattered meridians. He traveled to remote places, seeking out skilled healers, even meeting cultivators with healing abilities. Yet all his efforts were in vain.One day, as Su Jian sat deep in thought by the edge of a small lake, an old man with long white hair approached him. His clothes were plain, but there was an inexplicable aura of majesty surrounding him.“You look desperate, young man,” the old man said.Su Jian looked at him in confusion. “I… I just want to heal my w
