《Harvest Factory ~ a Farmer Life》Chap 48 : Reasons (2)
Advertisement
In the Lus house, the family of three was also having their own conversation.
“Dear, are you really going?” (XSS)
Xiao ShanShan asked with concern, Lu Rianli beside her folded his hand, and looked at his son seriously.
“Yes, mom. I’ll join the Disciple Recruiting event and I’ll enter a famous sect. You can rest assured mom, your son is a genius.” (LH)
Lu Hao smiled with confidence. Xiao ShanShan was still worried. Lu Rianli looked at his wife.
"Dear, don't worry so much. It isn't good for your body. Our son is already an adult, he can take care of himself." (LR)
Lu Hao smiled wryly, while he was happy his father supported his decision, why did he feel that his father didn't care about him?
"I know but I can't stop worrying." (XSS)
Xiao ShanShan leaned on Lu Rianli.
"Why do you want to go? Isn't it good here in the village? It is safe and all our needs are satisfied." (XSS)
"Mom, I want to see the world. I don't want to stay in the village my whole life." (LH)
Lu Hao answered honestly. The village was good but he felt suffocated here. He wanted to see the world, to experience all the world has to offer. He dreamed of becoming a master sabersman and traveled the world with a sword.
Entering a famous sect would be the first step of his dream, which was why he worked so hard on getting strong. He also trained his sabersmanship using a second-hand saber he bought. He didn't have a saber technique but he did have a butchering technique he found in his father's old stash.
It was called Bone Cutting slash, it was intended to cut beasts joints or cleave the bone cleanly. Beggar couldn't be chooser, he trained the technique and felt it was easy to use and match him. Sometimes he sneaked into the forest outskirt to train by fighting beasts or demon beasts or helping in the shop under his father's satisfied but suspicious eyes.

He also already reached the Fourth level of Qi Refining stage by the age of sixteen, he may not be as good as Xiao Long who already reached Inner Foundation by the age of seventeen but he was still the most talented in the village, only under Xiao Long. Yan Xiu was already on the same stage as him but Lu Hao didn't know that yet.
He was confident he could enter a famous sect with his talent.
"Dear…" (XSS)
Xiao ShanShan looked at her husband, wanting him to tell her son to stay but Lu Rianli said the opposite.
"Dear, our son has his dream and ideas. Let him go." (LR)
Lu Hao was surprised his father let him go easily and thought bitterly, his father already had another heir so he was not needed anymore.
Lu Rianli looked at his son. As a father, how could he not know what was in his son's head?
"You might think I let you go now because I already have another heir, but you're wrong. The reason I let you go is that I know your persistence and effort." (LR)
"What?" (LH)
Lu Hao looked dumbfounded at his father.
"I know you worked hard on your cultivation and skill. If you have not worked so hard, I will not let you go." (LR)
"You know?" (LH)
"If you think you can hide from your old man while living under him, then you are still wet behind the ears, kiddo." (LR)
Lu Rianli sneered. Lu Hao didn't feel mad but he was touched, so his old man was looking closely at him. He thought the old man didn't care about him. Xiao ShanShan was also surprised. The atmosphere suddenly turned warm but it was not for long as Lu Rianli destroyed it.

"Don't look at me like that, it feels weird." (LR)
Lu Rianli looked disgusted at his son's touched expression. Lu Hao's face darkened.
"Old man, you're ruining the moment." (LH)
"Heh, save it. While I let you go join the Disciple Recruiting event, I have a condition." (LR)
Lu Hao's face turned serious as did his father.
"Shoot." (LH)
"If you enter a famous sect, you can do and go wherever you want. But if you can't, you'll obediently return to the village and inherit the shop. Do you accept?" (LR)
Lu Rianli has heard many things about sects from Xiao Musheng. In the big and famous sect, even if you were an outer court disciple, it was better than being an inner court disciple of a small sect.
Why? Because of the status and resources. The disciples of big sects were usually safer and experienced less danger. It was the opposite for medium and small sects. As a parent, it was his wish for his son to be safe.
Lu Hao hesitated. While he was confident, it was just confidence. What if he couldn't enter big sects? Would he rot in the village? But he understands his father's concerns. After thinking, Lu Hao nodded.
"I accept but I will try again if I have the chance." (LH)
Lu Rianli smiled, knowing when to back down and advance, good.
"Sure, but the condition is still the same. Enter big sects or go home obediently." (LR)
"Deal." (LH)
The father and son smiled, Xiao ShanShan on the side was silent as the talk went on without her.
"Why can't you just tell him to stay?" (XSS)
Xiao ShanShan twisted the skin on Lu Rianli's waist. Hissing in pain, Lu Rianli quickly pacified his wife.
"Wife, easy there. How could a man have no ambition, let him try. We can give conditions but we can't restrict him, let him spread his wings." (LR)
"Yes, mom. You have to trust me. Besides if I become a disciple of a big sect, you and dad will be proud and my sister will also be able to brag about it." (LH)
Lu Hao also quickly added. He was a little curious why his mother was so sure the baby would be a girl, when he asked his mother would say 'I just know it.'
"Hmmph!" (XSS)
Xiao ShanShan gave her approval silently, she knew this day would come, she was just a little unwilling for her son to be away from her.

8 183Changement : Version Pile [French]
Notice: This story is in French, not in english, mainly because of my poor english. I may translate it later if I get better, and hopefully I will. _ Les cris de souffrance résonnent dans ses oreilles, dans sa tête et dans son coeur. Cette dernière image, ces derniers instants, ces morts incompréhensible, rien ne sera plus jamais pareil pour Nils Nocquat. Il sombre, et dans les ténèbres, découvre la fache cachée de son monde. Qui est coupable? Démon, Ange et autres Sonen, tous se renvoient la faute, et maintenant, Nils Change, il doit faire un choix. Indécis, il lance une pièce. Pile. Il a choisi son camp. Il deviendra un Démon, le meilleur ou le pire de tous, ce n'est qu'une question de point de vue. - Author's note: this story is a concept. During the first chapter, the main character is faced with a major decision, which will change his life forever, and, not knowing what to do, he decide to play heads or tails, and let fate choose for him. And so there will be two versions of this story, one for each of the result, and their consequences for the main character, as well as all those around him. Here, he got tails. Note de l'auteur: Comme dit plus haut, cette histoire sera en français, car je ne suis pas assez bon en anglais. De plus, cette histoire est un concept un peu particulier, le personnage principal va se retrouver face à un choix décisif qui va changer sa vie pour toujours, et, ne savant pas que faire, il va jouer à pile-ou-face, en laissant le destin décider pour lui. Il y a donc deux versions de cette histoire, une pour chacun des résultats de son lancer. Lien de l'autre version : https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/28318/changement-version-face-french Je vous encourage à ne pas lire les deux versions, ou en tout cas, à ne pas les lire en même temps. Elle sont assez peu similaires, mais des choses vont, logiquement, être répétées, et les confusions risquent d'être rapides, surtout au début des histoires. Dans tout les cas, ces deux histoires vont s'éloigner assez rapidement, tout en restant intrinsèquement liées par leurs personnage principal. Libre à vous de choisir la version qui vous plaît le plus, sachant que vous n'aurez pas besoin de lire les deux pour comprendre toutes les intrigues, elles sont absolument indépendantes l'une de l'autre. Le seul chapitre identique dans les deux versions est le prologue. C'est la deuxième fois maintenant que je publie quelque chose que j'ai écrit, mais ça ne me rends pas meilleur en terme d'orthographe et de grammaire, donc si vous relevez une erreur, où même si vous remarquez des incohérences, n'hésitez surtout pas à me le faire remarquer. Toute critique, qu'elle soit positive ou négative, est appréciée. En terme de rythme de publication, je pense sortir un chapitre par semaine dans chacune des deux histoires.
