Chương 333: AZI Volume 6 Chapter 36
"…"
Leaving the karaoke club early, Long Hua sits inside the electric sports car.
"Well, I guess it was money well-spent?"
Crumpling up the receipt that contains a total in the four digits, Long Hua tosses it out the car's window, while the Tai Xuan Emperor asks—
(You able to answer my question now?)
Raising the window, Long Hua smiles, and replies—
"Ever since I came back from that ruin, I've been thinking… Sooner or later, my origin will be called into question by the Ling Yuan family. Tai Xuan Emperor, imagine a random individual just suddenly appearing in your backyard, what would be the first thing you do?"
Without any hesitation, the Tai Xuan Emperor replies—
(Get rid of them. I don't care if they've stolen anything or not, but since they've appeared in my backyard, they must have a purpose in mind, and I'm not one to leave things up to chance.)
As the ruler of a planet in the past, anything contained within the Tai Xuan Emperor's backyard would be considered priceless if it were put onto the market.
And even if the random individual wasn't there to steal anything, what's there to say that they weren't an assassin?
Responding with a nod of approval, Long Hua continues to ask—
"But what if that individual has backers, which makes them difficult to touch?"
(Get rid of them secretly.)
"Full marks."
Heaving a sigh, Long Hua says—
"The next time I head into a ruin, I won't just be dealing with weapon spirits; I will also be dealing with other practitioners. With my current cultivation base, I simply do not have the ability to guarantee that I will be able to tag them all with a contract. Ai… Cultivation resources are far too rare in the outer domain, so I can only choose to pry it off their corpses."
Putting on a somewhat bitter expression, Long Hua continues to remark—
"Once that necropolis opens—assuming I do not manage to reach the Life Manifestation realm before then, I will inevitably be forced to carve out a blood path to get the remaining magic treasures that I need."
Competition for magic treasures of high-value will definitely be fierce; and it is generally under environments of this nature that a practitioner will be able to grow properly.
However, it is also because of these environments that a practitioner with unknown origins tends to attract trouble to themselves.
"Whether it's Wen-xiong, Lao Bai, Lao Zhen, or anyone else for that matter, their protection has its limits. Ultimately, the shield that they can provide me with doesn't get rid of a root issue— "this random practitioner has been killing our clansmen left and right, hence he needs to die," such is the common excuse that is given to sentence a nameless nobody to death."
As the car begins to move, Long Hua leans back in the driver's seat; and smiling in a venomous manner, he says—
"I dislike having to deal with a swarm of rats that is constantly scheming against me in the dark. That being the case, I need some way to distract these rats—make them think that I am of lesser priority compared to a greater issue."
(You…-?)
Suddenly having a vague idea of what Long Hua intends to do, the Tai Xuan Emperor asks—
(You're planning to set their backyard on fire?)
Widening his smile, Long Hua nods, and answers—
"Indeed. If the Leng Bing Realm's weapon spirits are acting up, the Ling Yuan family has no choice but to direct much of their focus onto them. They wouldn't have any time to think about me. Using that time, I need to raise my renown and status in the Everlasting Spirit Realm to the point that they wouldn't dare to think about making a move against me."
Pausing here for a brief instance, Long Hua adds—
"The auction tomorrow, seems like there is a purpose in me attending the event after all. I need to motivate the depressed—they can't possibly stir up chaos with their current mindset."
(For the sake of getting a bunch of rats off your back, you're willing to set an entire world up in flames, *-laoban, your selfishness truly knows no bounds.)
Shrugging a shoulder, Long Hua replies—
"Well, what am I to do? It's not like there's any better methods out there when I'm forced to work with what I have in such a small environment. Besides, I'm no hero. Also, even if all the people in this world died, they'll revive later. Why not simply put this ability of theirs to good use?"
Despite finding sense in Long Hua's words, the Tai Xuan Emperor nevertheless had to remark—
(Truly vicious of you.)
"If you're not vicious, you're not fit to be a practitioner."
...…
Within the dreamscape, the Tai Xuan Emperor heaves a sigh.
It's this twisted mindset that Long Hua has that makes it incredibly difficult for her to put any faith in the former's words.
One moment he's able to laugh and eat dinner with an individual, and in the next instance, he's already plotting ways to kill that individual.
"…Surnamed *, you say, you don't like playing games in the dark corner, and yet, here you are being so proficient at it. A person like you—if you were allowed to become an apex level existence in this universe…"
Simply the thought of this causes the Tai Xuan Emperor to tremble, as she mutters—
"This disgusting and cold feeling he gives me… It's akin to having a snake coiling itself around my legs, it's… Similar to that unpleasant bastard."
Had Long Hua been able to hear this remark, he would definitely have directed a cold glare at the Tai Xuan Emperor.
"…"
Putting on a solemn frown, the Tai Xuan Emperor mutters—
"Is it just as I had figured? He's truly regained all his memories? But if he did… Doesn't that mean that he already knows who I am? …And if that were the case, wouldn't he want to kill me off as soon as possible? …Just what is he planning?"
