Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Please vote with powerstones. It supports me a lot, and if I get a hundred power stones by the end of the week, then I will release five extra chapters

I knew where I was going. The memories flew through my mind. I could see a loving woman who seemed to care for me in a way that I simply did not comprehend. My feet were practically flying. And all those points that I had increased in agility also seemed to be paying off right now. I could see that I was going faster than ever before.

Within a few minutes, I could see a courtyard. It was where Liu Feng, I mean the one who was in this body before me, and his parents lived. He had a sister as well. It was like this was all the cliches combined together. I could practically see the novel that I had become a part of.

Uncle Du was at the entrance of the courtyard. Rather, he was at the exit, because he was just leaving. He glanced at me and smiled.

"Looks like you survived that just fine. I am really surprised that you got through the war room without any scratches. Well, we have to wait until Liu Qian deals with Liu Zhu first. You should go back and talk to her though. I don't want to rob Ning'er of that. She waited for so long." Uncle Du said as he turned away and left. I steeled my face and looked forward.

The house was right there. I just had to take a few steps, but a heavy force stopped me. I couldn't place a finger on it. I just felt pain. I could not pain this woman. I was not her real son. Her real son was dead, and I had replaced him in his own body. But if I said that, then she would lose her mind, and I would certainly be dead. I had to weigh my choices. I had to be inhumane, or I had to think about only myself.

"Go inside. Talk to her. Mother is waiting for you." someone whispered in my ear. And I recognized this voice. It was the same voice that came out of this body.

"Liu Feng? You are still alive?" I asked out loud. There was no answer. Either I was dreaming, or he actually talked to me. But that was enough to tip the scales. I shook my head and went in.

I knew which room I had to go to. It was quite big, and a woman was sitting on it. I knew who she was instantly. Her face was beautiful, but the beauty had faded away. What replaced it were wrinkles of stress. Her eyes were swollen. She was clearly crying recently.

"Mother" my voice cracked.

She looked up. There were still tears in her eyes, but she smiled.

"You are finally here. I knew that you wouldn't run away for this long. I knew that something bad happened to you. I knew that I was right." she smiled.

Du Ning'er got up and walked up to me. She grazed her hand by my face.

"You changed. You look a little different now," she said.

The changes that I went through did not even escape Uncle Du. They certainly would not escape my own mother of this life! I nodded.

"I did not face only misfortune this trip. But I cannot explain what happened to me, because I myself do not know what happened in truth." I said. And I said the truth. I still did not understand how the heaven devouring art made me the way that I am. It simply changed me. That was all that I knew.

"You should rest. I will talk to your father. This was not your fault. You need rest. Your uncle told me. You ate only food pills all these months? I will tell the cook to prepare something especially special." my mother told me.

Her mouth opened as if she was going to say something to me. Her hands clutched my own, but then she let go. She shook her head as if she was in some disagreement with herself. She then said," Go. You need your rest."

I nodded. I could not disobey her now. I left the room, and I went to my own. I sighed.

"What is happening around me? There are so many problems that are apparent. They exist. But I cannot do a single thing about it. I took over this body. I need to repay the family at least. I need to get powerful. I hope this goddamn system is not cheating me. I better grow powerful." I told myself as I walked to my own room.

The room was bland. Plain grey floor, brown walls, and not a single decoration that adorned the wall like in my mother's room. A single cot sat at the end. It seemed that although I was the young master, that was only in name. For some reason, I was treated really badly. I knew that, because compared to what I had seen till now, the room that I had was really bad.

I shook my head. I was expecting too much.

"Just wait for the system to complete updating. How much longer will it take?" I told myself as I lay on the cot. Compared to the cave, it was the difference between earth and heaven. And, for some reason, fatigue filled me. I closed my eyes, and then I fell asleep immediately.
