I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

“Stronger than you?” Chen Hao asked in surprise.

Chen Diancang smiled as he nodded.

“It doesn’t matter if he’s friend or foe. Either way, he saved you and he taught you, and he gave you a very strong foundation. If not for that, I wouldn’t have met you so soon! I wanted to give you a strong foundation so that you could go into purgatory and transform. Back then, it would have taken three years, but now, your foundation is strong and you have the help of the King Ginseng. After a month of recharging your energy, you already have the strength to transform in purgatory!” Chen Diancang said.

“Transform… in purgatory?” Chen Hao was confused once again.

“Yes. This is something I discovered from the Chen Family’s Sun Totem. I have also used this method to gain powers that normal people do not have, reaching the level of being a Grandmaster. Speaking of which, your starting conditions are much better than my own!”

Being a Grandmaster? I remember Uncle Qin telling me that a practitioner must reach a certain level before being able to become an Inner Energy practitioner. The level after that would be becoming a Grandmaster. However, becoming an Inner Energy practitioner is almost impossible, let alone being the Grandmaster. Grandpa, are you already a Grandmaster? Chen Hao thought, shocked.

He had learnt plenty of secrets from Uncle Qin about how to nourish his body, and as of now, his body had successfully absorbed the King Ginseng and managed to reach the level of being an Inner Energy practitioner.

Was his grandfather really the mysterious Grandmaster?

“Yes. I achieved it twenty years ago! I also transformed everyone here through purgatory, but they did not go through the whole process. They are now intermediate to advanced Inner Energy practitioners. As for you, you are considered a beginner Inner Energy practitioner!” Chen Diancang smiled.

“No wonder everyone under you is so powerful. They were already Inner Energy practitioners from the start!”

“Hehe. Out of all my men, I could randomly pick one, and he would be able to defeat ten of you. But don’t worry. I will make sure you go through the whole process of purgatory, and I will also teach you the method of doing so. Chen Hao, from now on, you are the future of our Chen family!”

“I see, grandpa. So that has been your intention all along!” Chen Hao finally understood.

“Except…” Chen Diancang suddenly looked very serious, and seemed a bit hesitant.

“What’s wrong, grandpa?”

“After the transformation, your powers will increase significantly and you will be extremely strong. Your body will no longer be that of a common man’s. However, the side effect is that your temperament will be wildly different from what it is now. After I transformed, I needed over ten years before I finally returned to normal! Because of my strong willpower, I managed to control it. But I’m worried, because if you cannot control the powers within you, then you will become…”

Chen Diancang paused before continuing. “You will become a bloodthirsty monster! By then, you will pay no attention to any form of life! But you don’t have to worry. Ever since you were young, I have been observing you. You’re kind-hearted, just like your mother. You will not fight or hate needlessly. That’s why I know for sure that you can control this power well!”

Chen Diancang patted Chen Hao’s shoulders.

Right now, what Chen Hao needed was power. Stronger power.

He already understood that money was not enough to protect those he loved. Only power—strong, unparalleled power, could.

your uncle Chen Pingan was a suitable candidate for purgatory, however…” Chen Diancang trailed off, his expression
