Chapter 362: Counter
The woman scrunched up her face, seeming quite annoyed at the mere presence of the man with the pipe. Luchih was much less hostile to hear the other man speak, but it was obvious his smile was now fake, Nonsense, Mr. Guan. We havent forgotten you, but with how wonderful my offer is, theres little sense for you even being here. Youre only here as a courtesy, so you may as well just relax and enjoy your vacation.
The other man took a puff from his pipe and then puffed a tiny ball of smoke towards Luchih. The bald headed fellow didnt take the gesture as a joke as Sage considered it. Instead, he leapt backwards with his full force. The stone floor where hed been standing suddenly gained a few small cracks and Baqi Luchih dodged the ball of smoke like it was a deadly weapon. Only after he ensured his own safety did he thrust out his palm and release a wave of energy. Sage couldnt see it with his eyes, but with his Spirit Sense he gauged the force to be immense as it hit against the small cloud and dispersed it.
The man with the pipe chuckled, Quite cautious of you, Luchih. Are you worried everyone is as underhanded as you are?
You can pretend to be lazy, slovenly and harmless all you want, but I will never be fooled by you Zhenyan.
The woman was glad she had been a few steps back from the two when they broke into that little scuffle. She had no idea whether or not either of them would have held back if she was closer. She took a few steps back, and even Sage could hear her audibly swallowing, fearful of the two powerful figures shed brought into the room clashing again. The pipe smoking man stopped paying attention to the other two and took a step forward, bringing him only a few inches away from the bars of the prison cell.
Hey, you in there. Are you ready to become a high class servant? They may make it sound like youll be a manager in charge of some valuable goods, but its not much different than a housekeeper with a much bigger house to watch over. Congratulations! Youll never have to make any big decisions or be worried about your safety in the future.
Guan Zhenyan did not seem to care about whether or not he insulted Sage. Those words were sharp, but they werent wrong. It wouldnt take much thought to realize he spoke the truth. Baqi Luchih had all but came out and directly said it. He would be put to use as something of a living Hidden Domain.
Thats not the life I want.
You sound like youre trying to convince yourself. Its alright, most people dont know what they want until theyve already lost it. Youre lucky because youll be getting what you didnt even realize you desired. A few years from now youll finally understand you found your place. You can relax now, you paid some lip service to the idea of returning to your homeland and doing good for it. Dont worry, you can stay here and relax. We dont need you.
Is he right? Is this the life Ive always aimed for? Its definitely the ideal conditions Ive always wanted to find myself in. Yet, why does it feel so wrong?
I it doesnt feel right.
Hah, like I said. Most people cant see whats good for them. So just relax, put aside your worries and live the life you dont realize you want. Just think about it, what are your goals? What do you aspire to in your life? Seems to me like you only care about buying yourself a safe and easy ride.
The sense of connection to Guan Zhenyans words increased again. Goals. Aspirations. Motivation. Desires. What is it that drove him? Why was there a price on his head that sent him running for his life? What made him choose to put himself into danger over and over again? There were so many times he could have just left. Giving up the life of a cultivator and living the simple life of a mortal. It was easy to destroy his cultivation and cash in all his Spirit Stones for gold coins. Even when he was trapped with a half-monster body, he could have gone to live in a demi-human community and fit right in.
What is it all for?
