Son, Put Your Father To The Test (FF)

Having your son kneel and apologize?

Or fighting Qin Kuang?

Qin Chuan was in a bit of a dilemma.

Although this son was a "freebie," he still shared a bloodline with him. Sitting in the father's position and letting his son suffer such humiliation didn't sit well with him.

But as for fighting... what could he fight with?

He was nothing more than a cripple now.

"Father! Don't be rash!"

Qin Zi cried out anxiously, his words stumbling over each other: "Don't fight him! I can apologize to Qin Meng... Yes, a true man knows when to yield and when to stand tall. I can do it. It's no big deal…"

As he spoke, he tried to get up, preparing to apologize.

He absolutely couldn't let his father get hurt again! What was a kneel? He could endure it!!

However, a powerful pressure spread out, crushing down on him, making him unable to move.

Qin Kuang glanced at him with a cold smile and said, "The matters between your father and me are not for you to decide."

Then, he looked at Qin Chuan, his expression half-smiling, half-mocking: "Qin Chuan, I'm asking you now, what's your choice?"

He wanted Qin Chuan to choose! He wanted Qin Chuan to experience this agony, to feel the helplessness and humiliation.

Would he have his son kneel?

Or would he be humiliated himself?

Make your choice!!

Qin Chuan stood still, silent, even clenching his fists.

It was indeed a tough choice.

If he chose to fight, then today he would certainly be humiliated by Qin Kuang, perhaps even beaten to death "by accident."

But if he made his son kneel to save his life, he would feel ashamed for the rest of his life, never able to hold his head high again.

"Ding! The 'Strongest Dad System' is at your service. Would you like to bind it?" Suddenly, a mechanical voice echoed in his mind.

Qin Chuan was startled.

A system?

A golden finger has arrived?! "Bind!"

Without any hesitation, he chose to bind immediately. After all, he had nothing to lose. What was there to be afraid of? "Ding! Binding process initiated, 1%, 2%, 3%... Binding successful!"

Hearing this, Qin Chuan silently asked in his mind, "System, what are your functions? How do I use you?"

"Ding! This system is the 'Strongest Dad System,' designed for fathers. Whenever your son provokes a powerful enemy, you will directly gain the strength to defeat that enemy, and it will never fade."

The system replied.

Qin Chuan's breathing quickened upon hearing this!

"So, as long as my son keeps causing trouble, I'll keep getting stronger?" he asked cautiously.

"Ding! Please mind your wording! The principle of this system is that fatherly love is as strong as a mountain, not allowing the child to be wronged, not some mere power increase."

The system corrected him sternly.

"Hmm, I understand…"

Qin Chuan nodded. He understood, he understood it all!

In his previous life, he dealt with numerous business elites and political figures daily. What didn't he understand?

"Ding! Your son has provoked Qin Kuang, a ninth-level Yuan Dan stage expert. Following the principle of fatherly love as strong as a mountain, the father must win. Your cultivation will now be elevated to the ninth level of the Yuan Dan stage, and it will be a perfect Yuan Dan!"

Immediately.

Qin Chuan felt a surge of immense energy gathering in his dantian, and the previously shattered Yuan Dan reformed.

And this time, the Yuan Dan was golden, with power several times stronger than before! "This…"

Feeling the unprecedented strength within him, Qin Chuan was a bit dazed.

But this power was very real.

"Well, have you made up your mind? I don't have all day." At this moment, Qin Kuang said with amusement.

Qin Chuan took a deep breath, his gaze becoming sharper: "Since you're so aggressive, then... if it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get!"

Qin Kuang was taken aback.

Then suddenly, he burst into wild laughter, his laugh arrogant and unrestrained: "Hahaha, you've got guts, you've got guts!!"

The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile as he said, "Since you're so spirited, let me ask you... Do you dare to step onto the Life and Death Platform?"

The Life and Death Platform! It was the place within the clan where life and death were decided. Once you stepped onto it, your life was in your own hands, and no one could say anything.

"Father, no!!"

Qin Zi's face turned ashen, and he shouted in panic.

He was afraid that his father, unable to let go of his past pride, would act rashly, thus falling into Qin Kuang's trap.

Qin Chuan glanced at his son with a slight sense of comfort, then looked at Qin Kuang and said calmly, "Why wouldn't I dare?"

"Good! Tomorrow at noon, we'll meet at the Life and Death Platform!"

Qin Kuang laughed heartily, adding meaningfully, "Don't worry, I'll invite the entire city to watch tomorrow, ensuring you'll be the center of attention. After all... this will be your final battle."

With that, he turned around and left, laughing all the way.

Qin Zi was also released.

Ignoring his injuries, he quickly got up and ran to Qin Chuan, anxiously asking, "Father, why were you so impulsive? Can't you see that he's clearly trying to use this chance to get rid of you?!"

As he spoke, he seemed to realize his words were too harsh, and a look of guilt appeared on his face as he knelt in front of Qin Chuan.

"Father... I'm sorry, it's all because of me, I'm the one who caused all this... sob, sob…"

He lowered his head, choking with emotion.

Men don't easily cry, but it's only because their hearts haven't been truly broken.

Over the past few years, despite all the ridicule and humiliation, he hadn't shed a tear, but now, he cried.

He had burdened his father.

Qin Chuan looked down at his son, who was kneeling on the ground and sobbing, and felt a touch of comfort in his heart.

Not bad.

At least this son had some filial piety.

It wasn't in vain that he had taken on this responsibility.

Unconsciously, his right hand rested on Qin Zi's head, and he said softly, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, everything will be fine."

"Huh?"

Qin Zi looked up in a daze.

But he found that his father wasn't looking at him.

Instead, he was gazing off into the distant sky, with an ambitious expression, his light brown hair gently fluttering in the breeze…

At that moment, he felt that his father was so tall, so towering…

...

Late at night, in the room.

Qin Zi had been silent for a long time, but he couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Father, why did you agree to the Life and Death Platform? He..."

But the next moment, all his words were swallowed by the golden light that flashed before him.

It was a golden aura!

"This!!"

Qin Zi jumped up, ecstatic, and asked, "Your cultivation... it wasn't crippled?!"

Qin Chuan smiled without saying a word.

He decided to maintain a bit of mystery for now.

After all, he would need his son to keep causing trouble later, so he had to keep up the act and establish his authority.

He needed his son to understand—your father is very strong, extremely strong, so go ahead and cause as much trouble as you want!!

Rely on your father, feel free to rely on your father!

Is your father just for show? "Father, what's going on? Please tell me."

Seeing his father not answering, Qin Zi became even more curious, and his excitement grew.

He had a vague feeling.

There seemed to be something extraordinary about his father! Qin Chuan calmly poured himself a cup of tea.

He took a light sip and then asked mysteriously, "Xiao Zi, do you know... how big this world is?"

"Huh?"

Qin Zi was stunned.

He thought for a moment and then said hesitantly, "It's probably... bigger than just the Jiuyang Kingdom, right?"

"Heh, the Jiuyang Kingdom…"

Qin Chuan sneered and then said, "In the grand scheme of things, the Jiuyang Kingdom... is nothing!"

"What?!"

Qin Zi was shocked. In his view, the Jiuyang Kingdom was already vast, so large that an ordinary person might not be able to traverse it in a lifetime.

Yet in his father's words, this immense territory was nothing? This was simply mind-blowing! "Father, how... how do you know this?"

Qin Zi looked at Qin Chuan in disbelief, while his sense of anticipation grew stronger, making his blood boil.

Qin Chuan gazed deeply at his son, speaking in a mysterious tone.

"Because… I've been there."
