2: Chapter 2 Cultivators

The text on the simulator began to scroll.

[Dragon Country, 2030. You looked at your body in the rented apartment and confirmed that you were now in the world of the simulator.]

[This time, you were not as anxious as before, and your mindset was much more relaxed. You opened the learning website again and found that many of the topics that were originally difficult were now much simpler. You felt very happy about this.]

[The talent points added to your body had a tangible effect.]

[You decided to learn some knowledge before looking for a job.]

[The next day, you only studied for less than two hours before opening the alternative "learning website". You thought to yourself, since you can learn everything all at once anyway, you might as well have some fun first.]

[You had some fun.]

Lin Heng's mouth twitched a few times when he saw this. He opened the "learning website" on his phone.

Should he delete this thing? But after thinking about it, he gave up. He was certain that he would download it again in less than two days.

[Immediately after, you didn't want to study anymore. You decided to go find a job first.]

[You directly submitted your application to the Linhang Company that accepted you in the previous simulation, thinking it was a sure thing. As it turned out, your resume disappeared like a stone in the ocean, and you didn't even receive an interview invitation.]

[You cursed the company boss for not knowing talent.]

[A few days later, you calmed down and thought that perhaps the timing was wrong, so you decided to continue studying while submitting resumes.]

[During this month, you jumped back and forth between the two "learning websites", and your happiness and knowledge grew simultaneously. After one month, you had truly learned more than in four years of university. Compared to your previous simulation self, the difference was like clouds and mud.]

[A month later, you received an interview from another company called Zhaoshu Robotics.]

[The interview process went very smoothly. The technical interviewer looked at your work and answers, and their gaze changed from suspicion to surprise, and then from surprise to appreciation.]

[They asked you on the spot if you could start as soon as possible. The salary offered was nearly half higher than that time at Linhang.]

[You felt very happy, and when you went home that night, you went to the "learning website" to study hard.]

[Five years later.]

[You had been studying for these five years and had also completed many projects for the company.]

[The company had an opportunity for a supervisor promotion. You had made many contributions to the company over these years, and your colleagues all felt that the promotion opportunity would go to you, and you thought so too.]

[The promotion notice came down. It was not you, but a female colleague named Chen Min.]

[You felt very Life Qi about this. That female colleague, Chen Min, was clearly incompetent at everything and just wore black stockings and sexy clothes every day.]

[However, it had to be said that she was very pleasing to the eye.]

[You were very Life Qi, extremely Life Qi.]

[You knocked on the door of the general manager's office, preparing to confront them in person.]

[The door opened. Chen Min was also inside. You saw something you shouldn't have seen.]

[The kind of scene that would only appear in your bookmarks, except this time it was a high-definition, Immortal Master version.]

[You closed the door.]

["I didn't see anything," you said.]

[The next day, you were fired. The reason was "serious violation of company rules and regulations." There was no compensation.]

Lin Heng understood roughly what had happened when he saw this: "So that means Chen Min is the general manager's lover, and then I opened the door and saw this?"

He took a small notebook out of his suitcase, took out a ballpoint pen, and wrote down both of their names.

[You returned home helplessly. You were fired without even compensation, and the other party said you could sue however you wanted, as they had plenty of time anyway.]

[You were unconvinced and planned to sue the company, and you also planned to expose this matter about Chen Min.]

[In the evening, you received a call from your mother, asking if you had offended anyone somewhere.]

[You thought of Chen Min, but in order not to worry your mother, you told her no.]

[At night, several big men came to your apartment.]

["Our young master wants to see you," the leader of the big men said.]

[You didn't dare to resist and followed the big men into a black sedan.]

[The sedan drove to the front of a bar, and you were pushed inside by the big men. Chen Min and the general manager were also inside.]

[This person was dressed even more revealingly than at the company, with white flesh exposed.]

[The general manager was also a young man, looking to be only in his early twenties, maybe even a little younger than you.]

["You are Lin Heng?" The general manager put down Chen Min, who was lying on him, and walked to your side.]

["Yeah." You nodded.]

["Let me introduce myself, my name is Zhao Hui." Zhao Hui said as he walked in front of you, looking polite and courteous.]

["What do you want to do?" You said, looking at him coldly.]

["It's like this," Zhao Hui said with a smile: "Yesterday you seemed to have seen some bad things. I wonder if I could ask you to forget them?"]

[You didn't speak.]

["Brother Zhao, if you ask me, for a guy like this, we should just sew his mouth shut." Chen Min rubbed against Zhao Hui.]

[It was indeed your first time seeing such a scene, and you were a bit scared. What was even more unbelievable was that you saw Chen Min like this.]

[Your little brother started to stir.]

Lin Heng covered his eyes. He confirmed the fact that the "learning website" could not be deleted. It seemed that he really needed to study hard; how could he possibly get interested in a woman like this?

Lin Heng just watched the text on the simulator; anyway, he couldn't see Chen Min's appearance.

[Zhao Hui just glared at Chen Min: "It's all because of you that someone found out."]

[Hearing this, Chen Min pouted and said somewhat aggrievedly: "It was clearly Brother Zhao who said he wanted some excitement."]

[Hearing their conversation, the control tower in your brain sent a signal.]

["I don't know what you think, Lin Heng," Zhao Hui said to you.]

[Several big men surrounded you, and you knew that if you didn't say the right thing, you might not be able to leave here today.]

[You nodded, indicating that you didn't see anything yesterday.]

[Zhao Hui nodded with satisfaction: "But we still have to give you a lesson, Mr. Lin, otherwise you might remember these things again."]

[Zhao Hui waved his hand as he spoke, and several big men surrounded you.]

[You were startled, and your legs went a bit weak.]

["My grandfather is an old stick-in-the-mud; he hates it when I play like this," Zhao Hui said, pinching Chen Min, who let out a coquettish moan: "So please forget it thoroughly, Mr. Lin!"]

[You hated their appearance, but you were helpless.]

[You were beaten up by the big men and thrown out.]

[It was raining outside. You felt your vision blurring, and you passed out.]

"I won't just die like this, right!" Lin Heng looked at the information on the simulator, feeling a bit anxious. He had lived to fifty in the last simulation and received fifty talent points. Based on his understanding, it should be that the longer he lived, the more talent points he would receive.

If he died like this, he would really be at a huge loss.

However, seeing the text still scrolling on the simulator, he finally put his heart at ease; it seemed he wasn't dead yet.

[You opened your eyes and found yourself on an unfamiliar bed; a girl had saved you.]

[You asked for her name.]

[She said her name was Liu Ziyi.]

It was my girlfriend from the last simulation, Lin Heng thought.

He didn't expect that she would be the one to save him. Could this be fate?

[You knew she was your girlfriend from the last simulation, and this time she had even saved you, so you already had a good impression of her.]

[After less than a month of getting along, you confirmed your romantic relationship.]

That's it? You're dating?

Lin Heng still couldn't quite believe it, but he had simulated twice and ended up with the same girlfriend; could this be considered fate?

He now had a little interest in this girl named Liu Ziyi, but not much, after all, he hadn't met her yet.

[Liu Ziyi was a girl who had just graduated a year ago. After getting along, you felt that she was indeed a very good girl, and this time you intended to marry her.]

[However, she didn't have a suitable job right now and could only shake milk tea at a milk tea shop. You had some savings, but not much, and you felt a crisis regarding money.]

[You submitted many resumes. Perhaps because of your accumulation over five years, this time you received many responses.]

[In the end, you chose Linhang Robotics Company, the place where you worked in the last simulation.]

[In less than a year, you were promoted to the position of technical manager.]

[Now you could guarantee that your knowledge in this area was world-class.]

[Liu Ziyi took you to meet her parents.]

[Liu Ziyi's father still proposed a dowry of 500,000.]

[You still couldn't come up with that much money, but Liu Ziyi said she wouldn't marry anyone but you.]

[Her father was very Life Qi, and Liu Ziyi was also very Life Qi, so she took you directly to get the marriage certificate.]

[You got married.]

"We're married just like that?" Lin Heng shook his head. He remembered that in the last simulation, he didn't get married.

It seemed that last time, when he heard about the 500,000 dowry, he just left and broke up with Liu Ziyi directly.

[One year later, you had a child.]

[Several years later, you were forty years old, and you were already the company's technical director.]

[Five years later, you were forty-five years old. You remembered that it was at this age that you were optimized in the last simulation. This time, you were not optimized, but several ordinary employees were.]

[Another five years passed, and you were fifty years old. It seemed that it was at this time in the last simulation that an accident occurred and you died.]

[This year, you saw the sky torn open, and a man was flying in the sky. He seemed to be wearing ancient clothes. You were stunned. He casually swung a sword, and half of Fei City disappeared.]

[You were lucky; the side he swung his sword at was the other half.]

[You felt a wave of lingering fear, but countless cultivators flying on swords instantly flew out from above the sky.]

[A Flying Sword appeared in front of you.]

[You died!]
