Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation

The bell rang.

The students leaving school crowded together, forming a tide of people that filled the outer corridor.

Jiang Ning quietly stayed in his seat. It wasn't that he didn't want to get up and go to the cafeteria, but because Xue Yuantong was occupying the seat, blocking his path to eat.

Usually at this time, Xue Yuantong would be drowsy from sleeping in class and would need his guidance to find the way to the cafeteria.

But today, Xue Yuantong had a pained expression on her face, "Jiang Ning, I have a cramp."

Sleeping in class felt so comfortable, but the leg cramp made it extremely painful, and she almost bit Jiang Ning in pain.

Seeing her sickly appearance, Jiang Ning said, "That's a good thing, it means you're in a growth spurt and about to get taller."

Though in pain, Xue Yuantong became excited upon hearing this: "Really? I haven't grown taller in half a year!"

Jiang Ning said: "Very possible, when I was growing taller I often had leg cramps."

"Great!"

Jiang Ning is tall, and his authority on growing taller represents credibility.

This piece of good news reinvigorated Xue Yuantong; just thinking about growing taller made her leg pain seem less, now she needed to think about something more important!

She was beaming with excitement but then worried: "When I grow taller, will my current clothes not fit?"

"Yes, they might become short," Jiang Ning said.

"Then won't I need to buy a lot of new clothes, that's a huge expense!" Xue Yuantong was a bit reluctant, as she has always been frugal.

"Out with the old, in with the new," Jiang Ning comforted.

"Oh, if I grow taller, no one will call me short anymore," Xue Yuantong fantasized, thinking about facing the tall Tang Fu in the future without resentment.

She couldn't help it; once she rises, her state will also elevate.

As the students in the corridor outside gradually thinned out, Xue Yuantong no longer felt the leg pain and followed Jiang Ning out, chattering all the way about the scenes after growing taller.

She deliberately tiptoed, raising her line of sight, to experience that world in advance.

Jiang Ning looked towards the east, his Divine Sense extended over the teaching road, over the playground, all the way to the distant Nanhong Road.

This road wasn't just his way home, it was also the way home for Xue Chuchu from Second Middle School.

Within his range of Divine Sense, Xue Chuchu was riding a scooter, her old-fashioned helmet couldn't contain her beauty, her long hair gently fluttering in the wind, radiating elegance.

Jiang Ning smiled knowingly, but the next moment, his smile slightly weakened because dozens of meters behind Xue Chuchu, the driver of a cool motorcycle was staring intently at her.

The driver was a tattooed young guy, with a sharp face, not particularly strong, with somewhat fierce looks.

'This might not be good,' thought Jiang Ning, 'Chuchu has been targeted.'

But Jiang Ning wasn't too worried, the river dam wasn't deserted, people often strolled there, and there were passing cyclists; Xue Chuchu was quite smart and would never purposely take secluded paths.

Otherwise, with her looks, who knows how many misfortunes she might have encountered.

A girl so pretty, to be able to emerge safely from a chaotic town middle school in the 2010s, avoiding those malicious thugs and the venomous, jealousy-prone female bullies, and to make her way into the best high school in Yuzhou, Jiang Ning very much believed in her ability to avoid trouble.

However, even the Wise Man sometimes errs.

The world outside is full of treachery, and to prevent any unexpected situations, Jiang Ning had reinforced the Protective Array on Chuchu's Jade Pendant last time.

However, with Chuchu's smarts, if the Jade Pendant showed its power, she might sense something.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning mobilized his Spiritual Power, gathered at his fingertips, then pulled out a talisman and flicked it gently. The invisible talisman transformed into a stream of light, flying towards the east.

In just two or three seconds, it settled on the surface of the cool motorcycle.

Jiang Ning muttered: "I won't allow anyone's ride to be cooler than mine."

After finishing these actions, he finally felt relieved and walked towards the cafeteria.

...

River dam.

Doggy was riding a new model motorcycle, the engine roaring loudly, to his ears, it was the most beautiful music in the world.

He twisted the throttle, feeling the surging power, at that moment, man and machine became one; he felt with just a little force, he could easily ascend to the skies.

'So awesome, this bike is awesome!' Doggy shouted in his mind.

As for Yan Bo's initial warning that his brother had broken a leg riding this bike, Doggy dismissed it as nonsense.

Only a novice would break a leg; he considered himself the King of motorcycles!

Of course, enjoyment aside, Doggy didn't forget today's task.

Yan Bo said that as long as he completed today's task beautifully, the motorcycle would be his.

Having experienced the benefits of this motorcycle, Doggy absolutely couldn't look back at his former Ghost Fire, he was now part of the biker gang.

Imagining himself riding this motorcycle to find a girl at the electronics factory gates made him extremely excited.

Doggy kept his eyes on the silhouette of the girl ahead.

'She looks really good!'

If Yan Bo hadn't taken an interest, he would definitely have tried to flirt, plus she was a student from Second Middle School. If he could make a move, he would look so good in front of his buddies!

But since Yan Bo had taken an interest, Doggy had to restrain his thoughts.

He steadily maneuvered the bike, sweeping past tall official Yang Trees, the cyan dragon tattoo on his neck, looking alive with its claws and teeth.

His task was very simple: ride past the girl quickly, force her to slow down, and then give her a kick.

Kicking her and then escaping, with Brother Bo driving behind to show up as the hero to rescue the beauty and take her to the hospital for dressing her wounds.

"Vroom vroom vroom~" The motorcycle's noise gradually increased, attracting the attention of pedestrians at the river dam. Doggy enjoyed the attention of others, he twisted the throttle again, and the bike instantly shot forward, rushing straight ahead.
