Chapter 55: So-Called Surprise

Alchemist Feng was leaning against the wooden window, and a burning smell spread out from inside. Hearing the commotion, he looked at the entrance of the small courtyard. "It's rare for Talisman Master Shen to go out… Eh, who is this fellow Daoist behind you?"

Shen Ping cupped his hands and smiled. "This is my new Dao companion." As he spoke, he turned around and instructed in a low voice.

Luo Qing hurriedly bowed respectfully. "Luo Qing greets Senior Feng."

Alchemist Feng's eyes revealed envy. "Talisman Master Shen is really a role model for our generation. Unfortunately, I still can't let it go. If I could be as carefree as Fellow Daoist Shen, perhaps my life would be much better."

Shen Ping shook his head. "Alchemist Feng, pursuing the Great Dao is what we cultivators should do. I'm greedy for the joy of the mortal world. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for me to build my foundation in this life."
