Cosmic-Level Demon God-Chapter 63 - 57: Same surname, different destinies; same man, different paths

Chapter 63: Chapter 57: Same surname, different destinies; same man, different paths

"I’m working so hard, preparing to get into Heng University and Science University, to step into a first-rate academy, just so I can eventually stop working menial jobs! To get rid of the fate of a beast of burden and embrace a free life... Now, I’ve directly become a ’working warrior.’

Qin Shi looked at the latest achievement he had unlocked, feeling somewhat conflicted.

He concentrated his spirit, scanning through the passive skills offered by each profession.

[Concentration: Focus whole-heartedly on tasks like memorizing, solving practice problems, and taking exams, increasing mental capacity by fifteen percent.]

[Patience: Calm and composed, maintaining peace when faced with unruly children, little fairies, bossy aunties, and irritable old men, keeping anger levels stable, with a significant increase in verbal aggression.]

[Affinity: Your smile can make people feel comfortable and let down their guard. Its effectiveness depends on your sexual orientation, toward either the opposite sex or the same sex.]

[Muscle Building Meal: Even a plain boiled chicken breast and broccoli can sparkle in your hands and achieve fantastic results.]

"But anyway..."

Seeing the effects brought by the professional skills, Qin Shi’s eyes lit up, and the small sentiment of unwillingness to be a beast of burden instantly vanished.

"Working a job is a way to support oneself; there’s nothing shameful about it! I love working!"

This achievement alone is like getting several skills for free.

Super high cost performance!

Absolutely a major gain!

"But what does activating a profession of foot massage technician mean? Does it mean I have to massage people?"

Qin Shi pondered, could the professional certification depend on the scenes he has unlocked?

School, Youth Palace, nightclubs, gym...

Someday, if he has the chance to visit the former residence of the first Martial God Yan Haishan, wouldn’t he be able to unlock the position of ’Deputy Emperor of Dongxia’?

After all, being an emperor was considered a high-paying and high-danger top profession in ancient times.

"Mr. Qin, my fitness team’s nutritionists, personal trainers, assistants, all are the best quality industry elites."

Regarding Qin Shi’s training plan proposal, Cao Bin found it hard to fully trust.

"Brother Cao, you can choose not to believe it."

Qin Shi shrugged. He didn’t have only Cao Bin as a "trainee" option.

Once Zhou Ning’s health recovers and he is discharged from the hospital, frantically feeding him muscle-building meals to improve career progress would be just the same.

"I’m willing to give it a try. Mr. Qin, please accept this Super Protein as a meeting gift."

After thoughtful consideration, Cao Bin, as a steroid warrior, indeed did not believe a fitness meal could have much effect.

Normal diet is completely unmatched by the powerful effects brought by injections.

But thinking of the shocking scene of Qin Shi injecting nineteen needles without any side effects, he hesitated, deciding to try it for a while.

The pain from the repeated Supreme Nine Dragons Fusion injections, which even painkillers couldn’t alleviate, steadily increased.

Each time felt like torture, inducing intense fear.

"By the way, Brother Cao, where do your gym coaches get their drugs from?"

As Qin Shi walked Cao Bin to the alley entrance, he suddenly asked.

"Supplied by Yan City, Yu Hai Pharmaceutical from Mr. Qin’s family. Old Luo, Old Li, Old Chang and those others get their goods straight from there. They also provide test reports for trainees at a discount."

Cao Bin lowered his voice:

"Mr. Qin has been doing big business for years. The Old Factory Street area is about to be demolished and redeveloped, and such a major project is contracted to Yu Hai City Construction, showing strong capabilities."

Brother Ze’s big boss Hao seems to also have the surname Qin.

Qin Shi felt puzzled, hearing rumors that "Chen Lin rules the half sky, Qin Zheng fills the streets."

The reach of the Qin family in Yan City is surprisingly long.

"Mr. Qin runs a pharmaceutical company, opens hospitals, offering one-stop services. They are also stakeholders in my chain fitness centers."

Cao Bin casually continued:

"When the renovation of the Old Town District and the demolition of old buildings succeed, Mr. Qin’s wealth might multiply several times, perhaps formally entering the Urban Circle."

Same surname Qin, yet the difference is quite noticeable.

Qin Shi silently mocked, sending away Cao Bin, who only cared about muscle growth, and returned to Baogong Street, where he happened to meet Xie Yucheng leading a group of people.

"Ah Shi, I heard from the neighbors that a muscle guy came looking for you, so I brought help over!"

Looking at the group of minors behind Xie Yucheng, wearing flip-flops, floral shorts, with spicy hotpot in one hand and skewers in the other, Qin Shi couldn’t help but laugh.

This group didn’t seem enough to handle him with one hand.

"Brother Cheng, let the brothers go back and enjoy their supper. The visitor came bearing gifts, not trouble."

Qin Shi pulled out a few hundred-dollar bills from his pocket and stuffed them into Xie Yucheng’s hand:

"Thanks for coming all the way, treat the brothers to an extra dish."

Xie Yucheng didn’t refuse. After all, Qin Shi often earned tips while serving fruit platters at the Midnight Imperial Palace each night.

"Ah Yuan and Brother Ze are here too, want to join them for a table?"

Following Xie Yucheng’s gaze, Qin Shi looked over, his eyes passing several drop-out youths loitering around the street, seeing Li Yuan and Cheng Ze standing by a car on the roadside.

The former shielding the latter from the wind while lighting his cigarette.

"Is Midnight Imperial Palace not open tonight? Why are they all outside?"

Qin Shi asked aloud.

"Brother Ze took on a big project, saying Baogong Street, Weihai Street, and Construction Street will be redeveloped, so he’s here to check things out."

Xie Yucheng smiled, his hands in his pockets:

"This time, all the old houses and residential buildings will be demolished, turning into places for clothing stores and karaoke bars.

Maybe in the future, Brother Yuan and I will watch over this area."

Qin Shi hummed, hearing the sound of excavators roaring in his ears:

"No wonder several bulldozers are parked around the Stone Gate Pavilion. Brother Cheng, I’m not going over, my sister hasn’t eaten yet. If Midnight Imperial Palace isn’t operating, I’ll go home to cook for her."

Punching lightly on Qin Shi’s increasingly broad shoulder, Xie Yucheng said with envy:

"See you later. You are getting more solid by training with Old Liang, your muscle contours are becoming more distinct!"

The substantial increase in Life Force, apart from ushering vigorous vitality at the newborn stage, also imperceptibly sculpted the physique.

Now, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, the proportion of his body resembling an inverted triangle added a hint of rugged manliness to the previously delicate and refined Qin Shi.

He nodded with a smile:

"See you later, Brother Cheng. Send my thanks to Brother Ze and Brother Yuan."

The two parted ways, Xie Yucheng running across the road:

"Brother Ze, Ah Shi said he has to take care of his sister, won’t join us for dinner."

Cheng Ze, smoking a cigarette, leaned on the car roof, gazing at Qin Shi’s silhouette blending into the night of Old Factory Street, then at the rowdy group of brothers nearby.

The midsummer night breeze passed along the street, colorful flickering advertisements seemed to split the world into two sides.

The lights on their side, brightly lit, didn’t seem as warm as the shanty houses.

Suddenly he understood why Teacher Liang favored this "little junior brother" so much.

"One’s life is always influenced by the environment, like a sapling unable to escape its soil. Ah Ze, you want to be a dandelion, flying far away, but have you ever thought that dandelions can only drift with the wind, and when the wind stops, they fall."

Blowing smoke, Cheng Ze’s eyes glazed over, recalling Teacher Liang’s words to him before leaving Old Factory Street.

"A true strong person knows to anchor their roots firmly, growing downward to support themselves in touching higher skies and basking in more sunlight..."

He smiled, extinguishing the half-smoked cigarette and dropping it into the gutter:

"Ah Shi’s path is different from others. Get in the car, let’s go check out Construction Street, where there will be a huge commercial center. Do you know what a commercial center is? Haven’t been to the Urban Circle? It’s a bustling place for watching movies and playing games."

Cheng Ze bent down to get in the car, Li Yuan and Xie Yucheng followed into the front seat, one as the driver, another chatting leisurely, while others got on e-scooters, forming groups and following the car. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Stars dotted the sky, and the bright moon hung high.

The youths of Old Factory Street each rode the grand yet subtle tidal currents of their era toward different life directions.
