The Inheritance System

Chapter 60 – Moving Forward

Judge Cui and Judge Tang almost fell over when they heard that they were happily munching on animal feed for half of the day and were still stunned that the animals were eating such delicious food.

At the dining hall, I was mostly in my own head talking to the system as the system revealed one of its features…

[Beep!]

[Congratulations host! The wishes of Ku De Hua and Ku De Ren has been fulfilled and you have obtained nothing!]

[Beep!]

[Since the host has not contributed to the fulfilling of wishes twice, I have to warn the host that if he fails to assist with the fulfilment of another person's wish one more time, I will start cursing the host daily, when he wakes up. Just like how he used to curse God.]

(What?!) I ask in disbelief.

[Beep!]

[Since the host has not contributed to the fulfilling of wishes twice, I have to warn the host that if he fails to assist with the fulfilment of another person's wish one more time, I will start cursing the host daily, when he wakes up. Just like how he used to curse God.]

(No, I did not ask you to repeat yourself. Why do you have to scold me every day if I fail to grant another person's wish?! Aren't you sent here by God to help me?!)

[Yes. I am sent here by God to help you survive and you are sent here to repeat and you are sent to this world to do what you expected God to do. Please work harder to be the ideal God you wanted God to be!]

…

At night, at the Ku Family estate, an old woman and an old man are happily talking over a baby's crib. The man is Old Ku and the woman is Ku Si Le's mother.

"How was the trial today?" She asks as he looks at the baby lovingly.

Old Ku looks at her and says softly, "It was fine. I thought the judges would have been a problem at first, but they did not interfere at all and their presence helped put Ling Zi Xiang in place."

His tone becomes a little more serious as he says "Your people should not have burned the ministry. It will become troublesome when the investigators from the capital arrive."

"Don't worry. They won't be able to find any evidence. They don't even know if the bodies belong to the slut right now and they can only draw conclusions from the fact that she's missing. Besides, burning everything in a big fire is the best way to destroy evidence." The old woman says confidently.

Old Ku makes a wry smile and says "I guess the ancients were right when they said that women are vengeful creatures…it is foolish of Ling Zi Xiang to forget that Ku Si Le has parents as well."

…

A few uneventful weeks went by and our life in Yao Feng town was boring. We eventually stopped walking around and only Zhuge Pang ran around all the big and small eateries to try them out.

While the town was quiet, it was clear that a never ending feud between the Ling and Ku families was created in the courtroom that day, and only one family will stay remain in Yao Feng town once it is resolved. Who will win in the end, however, has nothing to do with us right now.

A few days after the trial, the Ku brothers disappeared. Old Ku probably sent them away as he understood that once the investigators from the capital arrive, the Ku brothers would be in for another round of beatings as the investigators are more objective and vicious once they start work.
