I Have A Demon God Simulator - Chapter 34:
Chapter 34: Su Mu’s Troubles
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the third life, Su Mu gave up approaching the bronze coffin.
He waited patiently for the day to come and started practicing martial arts when he was six.
In the meantime, a strange incident happened, and it was related to the bronze coffin.
The year Su Mu turned eight was the 10th year of the Tianqi era.
The wasteland where the bronze coffin was buried suddenly returned to normal, and crops grew again.
Su Mu was greatly surprised. After investigating for a bit, he found that the sense of danger had disappeared.
In other words, the bronze coffin underground had disappeared!
It appeared on the 6th year of the Tianqi era and disappeared mysteriously in the 10th year of the Tianqi era, like a ghost.
This added another layer of mystery to the bronze coffin.
However, Su Mu’s life had become more stable after the disappearance of the strange and terrifying bronze coffin.
He practiced martial arts every day and read books when he was free.
After being harassed by Liu Leqing, he took the time to play with her for a while.
Fortunately, Liu Leqing had grown up in the military camp and had a wild personality.
When they were slightly older, they started to enjoy hunting, fishing, archery, and other forms of entertainment.
This would make accompanying her a less boring task.
…
When he was 12 years old, Su Mu officially joined the Army.
At that moment, he was seven feet tall and looked no different from an adult.
Moreover, he was already a third-rate warrior and his combat strength was quite impressive. Ordinary soldiers were no match for him at all.
In the following years, Su Mu’s martial arts cultivation continued to soar. By the age of 15, he officially advanced to a second-rate warrior.
The military’s martial arts, such as the Mountain Quaking Fist and Army Shattering Saber, had been cultivated to perfection by him.
At that point, Su Mu’s combat strength was among the top in the entire military camp!
Only Liu Gaotian, a first-rate warrior, could suppress him.
Although the other lieutenants had a higher cultivation than Su Mu, their combat strength was only on par with him.
This allowed Su Mu to live up to his reputation as a genius.
Of course, he was only a genius within this small military camp.
It was nothing in the outside world.
…
At the age of 16, Su Mu participated in a Bandit Extermination operation as a ten-man squad leader.
Who knew that this gang of bandits was actually supported by a wealthy family in the city, and their strength was higher than expected?
The officer leading the group was killed by the bandit leader and his men!
In the face of danger, Su Mu stepped forward.
He wielded a saber and fought his way through the bloody battle, carving out a bloody path.
Then, surrounded by many bandits, he beheaded the bandit!
When the bloodied Su Mu stepped over a pile of corpses and lifted the bandit leader’s head, the morale of the army soared!
The bandits, on the other hand, had a mental breakdown and were panicking.
In the end, these bandits either escaped or died, and were completely exterminated!
After this battle, Su Mu’s prestige in the military camp rose greatly, and he was promoted.
Without any background, Su Mu had become an officer at the age of 17. This was already an astonishing speed!
However, if he wanted to continue rising, the difficulty would be great.
It was not an era of war, so there were not many opportunities to make contributions.
Moreover, Su Mu had no background and no one to help him.
However, he didn’t care whether he was promoted or not. After all, it was just a simulated world.
※※※※※※
One day, Su Mu repeated what he did as a child, sitting on a piece of dead wood, quietly pondering.
The Great Famine that would sweep through Jizhou would come in a year.
Who knew what terrifying things would happen then…
Just as he was thinking about it, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind Su Mu’s head!
He didn’t even think and waved his hand, as if he was swatting a mosquito.
With a crisp “pa” sound, the fist that had tried to sneak attack him was struck to the side. At the same time, a young girl’s cry of surprise could be heard.
“Argh! It hurts so much! Big Brother Su Mu, can’t you be gentler?”
The girl mumbled in dissatisfaction and sat beside Su Mu.
After sitting down, she held her chin with both hands and looked up at Su Mu. She had a bright smile on her face.
This caused Su Mu to sigh helplessly.
The beautiful, slender, and pretty girl was Liu Leqing.
All these years, Liu Leqing was definitely one of the things that bothered Su Mu.
Her father, Liu Gaotian, had always thought highly of Su Mu and treated him very well.
However, there came another problem!
That was the marriage of a man and a woman.
…
Su Mu and Liu Leqing had grown up together and could be considered as childhood sweethearts.
Moreover, Su Mu was quite outstanding, so Liu Gaotian was very fond of him and had long regarded him as his son-in-law.
Liu Leqing was one year younger than Su Mu.
When she was 14, Liu Gaotian had already hinted that they could get married.
When he had heart this, Su Mu’s scalp immediately went numb, and he quickly feigned ignorance.
But over the past two years, Liu Gaotian had been bringing this up more and more frequently.
Now, he was no longer dropping hints, but making it clear!
After all, Liu Leqing was already 16.
In Da Qian, one could start getting married at the age of 14. If one was still not married by the age of 18, they would be considered an old lady.
However, Su Mu never wanted to marry Liu Leqing.
The most important reason was that this was a simulated world.
Everything would return to nothingness.
It was like a game, a dream.
Su Mu didn’t want to have too much of a bond with the characters in the simulated world, as it would be bad for both of them.
He did not forget that his cheat was called the “death system”.
Who knows when he’ll die, so what’s the point of getting married?
…
Thinking of this, Su Mu turned to Liu Leqing and asked, “Little girl, I accompanied you to hunt yesterday, why are you bothering me again today? What’s the matter?”
Liu Leqing wrinkled her little nose and said in dissatisfaction, “What’s wrong? I can’t come to you for no reason?! Am I that annoying?”
Hearing this, Su Mu just shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say anything.
Liu Leqing grew up in the military camp, so she didn’t make a fuss about Su Mu’s bluntness.
She only pouted and said aggrievedly, “Father asked you to go to the tent. He has some instructions. I rushed over to inform you!”
“I see. Let’s go then.”
Su Mu stood up and walked towards Liu Gaotian’s tent.
Liu Leqing quickly followed behind, just like when they were young.
…
The two of them arrived at Liu Gaotian’s tent.
More than a decade had passed, and Liu Gaotian had aged a little, but his overall appearance hadn’t changed much.
Over the years, he had not made much progress in his martial cultivation. He was still a first-rate warrior and had no hope of being promoted.
But this wasn’t Liu Gaotian’s concern.
He was more worried about his daughter.
He saw Liu Leqing following behind Su Mu like a little wife, with a wronged expression on her face.
Liu Gaotian’s face turned cold, but he was more helpless than ever.
He didn’t know what was wrong with Su Mu. His girl was so beautiful. How could he not feel anything for her?
Other people’s fathers were all afraid that pigs would dig up their cabbages.
Liu Gaotian, on the other hand, was worried that the stupid pig wouldn’t eat his beautiful cabbage!
Liu Gaotian helplessly sighed and pointed at Su Mu, “You brat, you brat… Ah, I don’t know what to say to you, I really want to beat you to death!”
“There’s a mission here. Take it and get the hell out of here. I don’t want to see you!”
Liu Gaotian threw a military order to Su Mu and turned away from him.
“Father, don’t be so fierce to Brother Su Mu!”
Liu Leqing was a little dissatisfied with her father’s attitude. She pulled her father’s arm and called out to him coquettishly.
But this shout only made Liu Gaotian even angrier.
It was said that after a daughter got married, she would side with outsiders.
This one was not even married yet, but she was already siding with an outsider.
Did she even remember who her father was?
Liu Gaotian’s eyes became even more dangerous at this thought.
Su Mu’s eyelids twitched. His [Spirit sense] had already started to warn him!
He quickly cupped his hands in affirmation and ran out with the military order.
An angry father was terrifying!
