Chapter 12: Change the Future!

[Ding, Life Simulation begins.]

[On the 2nd day of the 3rd month, year 480 of the Daya calendar, you rigorously practice martial arts. After the cultivation is over, you tell Chih Hu about Peiyuan grass and the Gale leopard. Chih Hu is very surprised and asks how you know about it. You make up a lie, saying that it was because of this that the escort was wiped out.]

[Chih Hu believes your words, and says he will let the hunting team pay attention. However, Chih Hu asks if you know where the Peiyuan grass is. You feel helpless and can only say that you lost your way while running away.]

[Hearing your answer, Chih Hu feels somewhat regretful.]

[On the 3rd day of the 3rd month, you cultivate diligently...]

[On the 10th day of the 3rd month, the hunting team finds the Peiyuan grass. However, they remember your words and don't act rashly. The members of the hunting team gather all the other hunting teams, return to the village chief and discuss their strategies.]

[In the end, the village chief decides to take matters into his own hands. After formulating a detailed plan, he prepares to deal with the Gale leopard.]

[On the 11th day of the 3rd month, after everything is ready, the village chief leads the hunting team members in their attack, successfully killing the two Gale leopards and obtaining the Peiyuan grass.]

[Upon returning, the village chief and the others are grateful to you and share a Peiyuan grass to help you strengthen your foundation and improve your cultivation aptitude. Delighted, you choose to take it, improving your aptitude and restoring the depleted innate foundation.]

[On the 12th day of the 3rd month, you practice diligently and find that your cultivation efficiency has improved a lot.]

[On the 20th day of the 3rd month, Chih Hu successfully breaks through to the Innate Realm thanks to the two 6th Tier Demonic Beasts' Elixirs and Peiyuan grass, becoming the sixth powerful practitioner in the Innate Realm in Chi Village. The entire village celebrates.]

[On the 10th day of the 4th month, you break through to the early stage of Muscle Training. You are extremely happy!]

[On the 1st day of the 7th month, you break through to the middle stage of Muscle Training.]

[On the 20th day of the 8th month, you successfully break through to the later stage of Muscle Training. At this point, you also remember that there will be enemies coming to attack today in your life simulation, so you find an excuse to prevent the hunting team members from going out hunting, as it would be dangerous.]

[The men of Chi Village are very puzzled, but they consider your kindness to the village and choose to believe your words.]

[In the afternoon, Li Huai, a powerful practitioner in the Innate Realm, arrives at Chi Village and starts fighting without saying a word. The villagers are outraged, and everyone stands against him together.]

[However, Li Huai is very powerful. Although there are six Innate Realm practitioners in Chi Village, and the village chief is a 7th-Tier powerful practitioner of the Innate Realm, they are no match for Li Huai and are killed one by one. After that, all the adult men in Chi Village are massacred.]

[Due to your death, this simulation comes to an end...]

...

"What..."

Wang Ping is astonished at the results of the simulation.

He didn't expect that even after avoiding the death of the hunting team and allowing Chih Hu to break through to the Innate Realm thanks to the bodies of two 6th Tier demonic beasts and Peiyuan grass, the village would still be wiped out.

Is that Li Huai really that strong?

"According to the simulation description, the village chief is a 7th-Tier Innate Realm practitioner. To be able to kill the village chief and others on his own, Li Huai must be a powerful practitioner at the Innate Perfection Realm."

Wang Ping frowns, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Moreover, judging by the first simulation, Chi Village undoubtedly has a mortal enemy.

That's also the reason why Chi Village is hidden in Black Wind Forest.

Li Huai is most likely the enemy of Chi Village.

That's why he doesn't hesitate to attack and massacre the village after finding it.

"This is troublesome."

Wang Ping rests his chin on his thumb, deep in thought.

Chi Village has been very kind to him, and he doesn't want it to be destroyed.

Moreover, leaving Chi Village would be too dangerous for him in the outer world, and a little carelessness could lead to death.

Apart from that, once he leaves Chi Village, he won't have access to such good cultivation resources.

Therefore, he must find a way to save Chi Village.

However, he has already used up today's simulation times, and he has no clues for the time being, so he can only sigh helplessly.

...

Next, Wang Ping and Chifeng go to the Drill Ground to continue their martial training.

"Uncle Chih Hu, there's something I want to tell you."

After Wang Ping has completed his cultivation for the day, he finds Chih Hu and says seriously.

"What is it?" Chih Hu is somewhat surprised.

"Actually, the reason I got lost in the Black Wind Forest is that my escort found two Peiyuan grass plants, but we didn't expect that there were two 6th Tier demonic beast Gale leopards guarding them..." Wang Ping pretends to be frightened as he speaks.

"Peiyuan Grass!?" Chih Hu's eyes widen.

Peiyuan grass is a rare and valuable medicinal treasure that can improve cultivation aptitude and strengthen one's foundation. It is of great benefit for breaking through to the Innate Realm, making it extremely precious.

"You mean, your escort was killed by the Gale leopards while picking Peiyuan grass, and only you managed to escape by a stroke of luck?"

Chih Hu then speaks again.

"Yes." Wang Ping nods, pretending to be relieved, "Fortunately, those Gale leopards didn't think I was worth eating, otherwise I would have died too. But because of the panic when running away, I had no idea where to go."

"The reason why I'm telling you this is because I don't want you and the others to rush to pick Peiyuan grass as soon as you see it; it will definitely lead to casualties." Wang Ping pauses, his face serious.

"I see, I will let the hunting team members be careful." Chih Hu nods, pats Wang Ping on the shoulder and smiles, "Your information is very useful; if we find Peiyuan grass, you will also benefit from it."

"Mm." Wang Ping nods and smiles.

Through the simulation, he knows that the people of Chi Village are very kind and generous. When they find Peiyuan grass, they are even willing to give him one plant as a thank-you gift.

In the fantasy novels he had read, when people found a treasure, they would often turn against each other, wanting to monopolize it, even killing the leading character and trying to silence them.

...

Next, Wang Ping returns to his room to soak in medicinal baths, relieving the fatigue in his body while absorbing the Qi and Blood from the herbs, strengthening his body.

While soaking in the bath, Wang Ping can't help but open the chat group, only to find no one talking, making him somewhat helpless.

Yesterday, no one was talking either.

Wang Ping knows that the group members only come out to chat when new members join the group or when a group member dies; otherwise, they rarely chat unless something big happens.

After all, everyone has their own things to do, and they don't have much time to chat in the group.

The next day, Wang Ping continues the simulation.

[Ding, simulation begins.]

[On the 3rd day of the 3rd month of the year 480 of the Daya calendar, you practice diligently...]

[On the 10th day of the 3rd month, the hunting team finds the Peiyuan grass and the Gale leopard.]

[On the 11th day of the 3rd month, after the village chief makes thorough preparations, he leads the elites of the hunting team to kill the two Gale leopards and harvest the Peiyuan grass successfully. You receive one of the Peiyuan grass plants and choose to consume it.]

[On the 1st day of the 7th month, you break through to the middle stage of Muscle Training. You are very happy! However, you are also worried about the powerful enemies that will arrive on the 20th of the 8th month.]
