It was this way when riches dropped in front of the door. A poor man in the crowded city had no visitor, while a wealthy man in a remote mountain area would be called on by distant relatives.

That night, several people had come to visit Jiang Xiu\'s home. They were residents of the neighborhood who had come bearing gifts. It was either a fruit basket or vegetables, but none of them dared to enter the house. Instead, they left after delivering the items and giving a greeting.

The Jiang family had their dinner on the balcony as there wasn\'t any extra space inside the house. Jiang Yi, who had become uncommunicative before, drank a lot today.

"You lose something when you gain something. I once envied the life of the wealthy, but you\'ll discover that they don\'t have much freedom in their life."

Jiang Xiu knew that his father was speaking the truth. He had experienced those ups and downs in this life and encountered too many things. Those words came from the depths of his heart. He was sincerely giving a lesson to Jiang Xiu using his life\'s experience.

Jiang Yi continued, "There\'s an old saying. Some people worry about personal gains and losses. They fear losing things which they haven\'t even obtained yet. For example, how a person works hard to obtain wealth and then gets anxious that he\'d lose it. He marries a pretty wife with great difficulty, yet gets worried that she\'d run away with someone else. Simplicity is the truth. A human only needs to have ambition and passion."

Lin Yueling\'s gaze softened. She hadn\'t seen her husband act in such a way in a long time. At this moment, it appeared as if he had returned to the previous intellectual and passionate Jiang Yi. She teased him, "You don\'t need to be worried that I\'d run away because I\'m not that pretty."

Jiang Yi made a wry face, "It isn\'t that you aren\'t pretty enough but rather that only my eyes can see your beauty."

Jiang Xiu interrupted, "Me too!"

Lin Yueling couldn\'t help but laugh, "You\'re quite smart."

Anyhow, Jiang Yi wasn\'t saying empty words. When Lin Yueling was younger, she was a top-class beauty. The temperament she possessed as the daughter of an influential family placed her above even Cheng Lingsu and Ye Bing.

Jiang Yi drank another cup. The warm white spirit trickled down his throat as he quickly ate the food, "This world has many temptations. Money, authority, and women. No one can guarantee that they wouldn\'t lose themselves in front of them. Therefore, a person must have a clear idea of what they want and walk down that path to achieve their life goals, unhindered by the external world\'s obstructions."

Jiang Xiu didn\'t have any memories of his father teaching him lessons like today during his childhood. There were no opportunities to do that after he got imprisoned. Then after he came out, he had become dispirited. At this moment, Jiang Xiu had realized that his father truly wanted to guide him.

Although these words were late by three millenniums, Jiang Xiu was already doing this. It was because he had a firm goal that he had set foot on the path to cultivation and overcome all the obstacles bravely, rising above countless experts on the Immortal Martial Continent, then finally becoming the Almighty, Deity Xiu.

Jiang Yi said, "A few days ago, Cheng Hanlin\'s wife called to talk about the matter between you and Cheng Lingsu. What happened?"

Lin Yueling also looked at Jiang Xiu with a face full of curiosity.

"Nothing!"

"She came to me to break off our engagement."

For some affairs, it was better to solve them sooner than later.

Jiang Yi asked, "What are your intentions then?"

"I have none."

Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling felt surprised by their son\'s words. Jiang Xiu was in the prime of his youth, and Cheng Lingsu was so beautiful, so they wondered how he could remain so calm and indifferent.

"This world is much more complicated than you can imagine, it\'s quite cruel. Sometimes, people have to learn how to protect themselves. Though you mustn\'t take advantage of others, you mustn\'t allow yourself to suffer a loss."

"Or else, they\'ll think it\'s quite easy to bully you."

From these words, Jiang Xiu could feel that his father felt resentment towards the Cheng family as Cheng Hanlin was the reason his life was destroyed. Cheng Hanlin had promised to marry his daughter to Jiang Xiu. The Jiang family had helped him a lot and even given a lot of the family assets as dowry. So how could Jiang Yi readily accept it when they wanted to just break off the engagement?

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, they were filled with resolution.

"Your father\'s right!"

Even Lin Yueling\'s expression turned extremely serious. The Cheng family was the reason she had suffered. Separated from her husband for several years, she had to undergo bitter hardship alone while raising Jiang Xiu by relying on help from others. She had suffered enough of the supercilious looks from the world. How could she not feel hatred in her heart?

Jiang Xiu realized that removing the engagement wasn\'t an easy matter. Even if he was unwilling to marry Cheng Lingsu, his parents might not agree with his decision. Thinking of this, he frowned slightly.

"Mother, let\'s go buy a house tomorrow. Where do you think we should look?"

Saying so, he handed over the card with a million loaded in it.

However, Lin Yueling said, "Let\'s live here for now, okay? We can buy a house after receiving rent for one or two months. Since the stores are all here, it\'s better to buy a suitable one nearby."

Jiang Xiu didn\'t persist on it after listening to her words and received the card back.

Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling had seen the different faces of the world. They didn\'t wish to spend all the money they had obtained to gain all they had before back. Their state of mind was calm.

However, Jiang Xiu needed a house for himself. He desired to cultivate every day, and that\'d undoubtedly gather attention. Even if he did buy a house for his parents, he needed another for himself.

After dinner, Jiang Xiu called Tang Zhenshan.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Jiang Xiu said, "I want to buy a house, set it up for me." That tone was the same someone used to talk with their family. Tang Zhenshan had helped him out a lot today by spending a few 100 million. Deity Xiu naturally elevated his status in his mind.

At the Immortal Martial Continent, several people hoped to gain the favor of Deity Xiu, just like how the ministers vied for the Emperor\'s favor in ancient times.

Tang Zhenshan said, "I happen to have an empty villa there. I was planning to live there after retiring but got used to living in the military district as it served as a reminiscence of the time I spent in the army. How about living over there?"

"Okay!"

Soon after, Tang Wenchong came to Cloudlake South Street and handed over the villa\'s key to Jiang Xiu.

Going across the wetlands villa district, deeper into the wetlands\' abyss, the color of the sky turned a shade darker. Fog covered the entire wetland area, making the villa look ethereal.

"This place has good Feng Shui."

He walked on the path made of pebbles towards his new home but ran into a group consisting of a man and two women. It was a middle-aged couple accompanied by a pretty girl.

This was a real coincidence!

The girl\'s face blushed when she saw Jiang Xiu. She didn\'t know whether she should call out to him or not. After hesitating for a while, she finally called out, "Jiang Xiu!"

"What are you doing here?"

The girl was none other than his classmate, Ye Bing!

"Hey, it\'s really a coincidence."

He looked towards the man beside Ye Bing, "This must be Uncle Ye, right? Hello, Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye."

His spoke too politely! Deity Xiu had never acted with such courtesy!

After meeting his parents today, his attitude became quite a lot humbler and earthly. If he had said \'this Deity\' again, Papa Ye and Mama Ye\'s complexion would\'ve turned ashen.

After Ye Yiliang had heard the rumors during the party, he\'d lost the mood to keep attending the party, and this was the reason he had escaped the supernatural event that day.

Returning home, he\'d talked with his wife, learned all the facts and was filled with rage.

"You\'re that Jiang Xiu?"

Ye Bing\'s pretty pupils opened wide when she realized that her father recognized who he was. Her face turned red up to the ears. Mom must\'ve told Dad about the time when she caught us on the bed.

She couldn\'t bear the embarrassment and ran away.

"Bingbing!"

Mama Ye rushed after her, fearing something might happen to her darling daughter.

Jiang Xiu didn\'t expect that Ye Bing would feel so embarrassed and couldn\'t help smile. He too felt awkward and helpless about that day\'s matter turning out this way.

Ye Yiliang furrowed his brows when he saw the smile of Jiang Xiu\'s face, "I heard your family runs a fruit stall."

"Yes!"

"Your father was in prison once?"

"Yes!"

"You know who I am?"

"I know."

Ye Yiliang nodded, "You\'re quite calm and bold. I hear your martial arts skills are top-notch as well. You\'ve defeated the entire Martial Arts Division of the First High and even fought off 200 underlings of Big Lei at Entertainment City."

"Everyone has things they are good at."

Ye Yiliang scoffed, "Your martial arts aren\'t weak, and you also have a good relationship with Young Master Tang Wenchong. It isn\'t excessive that you\'ve tried to get together with a pretty girl like Bingbing."

"However, Ye Bing is different from other pretty girls."

Jiang Xiu asked, "How is she different?"

Ye Yiliang said with pride, "She\'s my daughter."

"You want to become her man?"

"YOU ARE U-N-Q-U-A-L-I-F-I-E-D!" His gaze was filled with endless contempt as he said those words full of self-confidence.

Jiang Xiu asked, "Oh? Really? What are those qualifications?"

"As far as family matters are concerned, a military rank of soldier, an executive authority of the municipal level. By the age of 30, the person must reach the military position of a colonel and have an executive authority of the district level."

"Your martial arts are pretty high, so you can join a famous university and become a martial arts champion, but that\'s your limit."

Saying this, he passed by Jiang Xiu and lightly patted Jiang Xiu\'s shoulders as if to console him, that reality was in truth cruel. His pat was to soothe the painful feelings of resignation Jiang Xiu felt after losing his daughter, Ye Bing.
