After finishing practicing cultivation, Liu Shan had improved his abilities to become a three-star junior fighter. However, just raising his cultivation level was not enough.
He still has two daily missions to complete. Therefore, he went to the backyard of the Liu family residence to train alone.
Almost two hours more for Liu Shan to focus on training his martial arts movements, as well as training his body muscles in doing push ups, sit ups and squats as much as 100x per movement.
The sweat pouring from his body was really a lot and even made the clothes he was wearing become soaked. However, Liu Shan who was doing sit ups did not stop just because of sweat and fatigue.
“96… 97… 98… 99… 100!”
When the count reached a hundred, the system reappeared and gave Liu Shan a new notification.

Seeing such a large array of notifications made Liu Shan a little surprised. However, he who focused on increasing his body status saw a development per point in each power and others.
“My physical ability keeps improving every time I level up. Then...”.
Liu Shan tightly clenched his hands together and positioned between his hips to grab the horses. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly as if trying to calm down while closing his eyes.
And when Liu Shan opened his eyes firmly, a powerful gust of wind appeared around him, causing the grass in the garden to sway strongly and the trees there to be almost knocked down.
WUUUSH!
One leg swiped backwards and one hand tightly to the back. The energy Ki was flowing into his arms was really strong and even gave rise to a green aura that was flaring around him.
Liu Shan who had concentrated Ki's energy into his arm was swinging as if he wanted to punch into the air with all his might.
However, before he swung the punch completely, suddenly there was the voice of a woman who was so familiar calling his name.
“Liu Shan!”
The fist swing wrapped with Ki energy disappeared immediately with his concentration. Liu Shan was repulsed as if he was in a ceremony so as not to look like he was trying to practice.
“Y-yes!” he said awkwardly
Liu Shan turned his head towards the source of the voice it came from. And there, he saw the figure of a mature woman who was so beautiful and graceful with her brown hair was beautifully unraveled. Using a traditional blue dress that is combined with her skin that is as white as milk.
“Liu Shan! My son, where are you?!”
Liu Shan who wanted to try his new strength had to be delayed for a moment because his mother looked uneasy looking for him.
“Mother!”
Call Liu Shan to make Shen Tian wake up and walk quickly to him with a face full of worry.
“My son, why are you suddenly here? Why don't you rest in your room?!”
“Mother, come. I've been 20 years, why do I keep going in a room like that”
“Bu-not so.. I'm just afraid of anything happening to you”.
Liu Shan who saw the look on his mother's face turned sad, making him remember various things experienced by the owner of his body. After experiencing the freezing of meridians, Liu Shan used to be bullied every time he went to the city.
Out of various circles, he was always called as a weak and useless young master. Verbal and physical insults were thrown at him, but Liu Shan himself never retaliated. Because he knows that he has no power.
This made his own mother very worried and became too pampering.
But all that has changed. The current Liu Shan was not the weak Liu Shan they would know again. Therefore, Liu Shan smiled in front of his mother and said,
“Sorry mom. Next time I'll say if I want to go somewhere so as not to worry about mom again”
Seeing his son understand his worried feelings, made Shen Tian smile happily.
Instead of that, Shen Tian who had just come to see Liu Shan in the garden asked him.
“Liu Shan, by the way why are you in the park?”
Liu Shan was shocked and almost choked on his own saliva. He had not wanted to tell his mother that he was cultivating. So he looked for another reason for his mother.
“A-ahh that! I was just looking for some fresh air! You know, going to the city would be a little dangerous for me. So I was just walking around the park. Hahahaha!” Said Liu Shan awkwardly while scratching his head
“So yes. Right too, Liu Shan. Mom almost forgot.”
“Tomorrow there will be a power exhibition event in the city. Mother and father will accompany Mingming and Liu Siyue to go there.”
Other than Mingming, Liu Shan still had one younger sister who was 17 years old. The girl who was no less talented than Mingming and also herself in the past.
From that speech, Liu Shan already knew the next sentence. His mother would tell Liu Shan to stay home so that nothing would happen to him, such as being insulted or harassed by the townspeople.
Without so much stale, Liu Shan smiled and replied,
“Good. I'll be at home waiting for you guys”
Shen Tian who saw the smile and reply from Liu Shan also felt amongst the relief and sadness. However, there was nothing he could do and just try to keep his son away from the dangerous thing.
“My son is indeed the best,” said Shen Tian as he gently stroked Liu Shan's head.
The hands that so gently stroked his head felt warm and comfortable. The feeling called a mother's affection flows within her as a whole. The thing that Liu Shan could not get when he was in the previous world that was still a kara, now he got the second chance of his life.
“Day is getting late, don't linger outside” Shen Tian said as he walked back inside first
After living by his mother, Liu Shan lowered his head in silence alone in the park. His hands began to slowly raise and hold the head gently rubbed by his mother.
“Warm once...”
“How long ago... I did not feel this...”.
The director of the company who dedicated himself to climbing the top of life, has been in residence by his family due to a tragic accident.
He was given the opportunity to have a family. Liu Shan's ambition was not stopped just to become stronger, but to protect the people he cared about.
“In this life, there won't be a single thing I let hurt my family!”
