Chapter 165 - Safety And Comfort (2/2)

They vanished.

”...I...Me too.” Yan Qiu muttered softly. Yan Shijing witnessed this, but without Tao's knowledge of Yan Zaizen's developing habits, he was excited. If his great-granddaughter obtained the hand of an expert like that, the benefits they both would obtain could directly reach new, greater heights.

-----

Wu Clan, Yan Zaizen's Residence.

A spatial ripple appeared. Both Bai Lufeng and Wu Yuanxu were talking together. During which they discovered they have very, very little in common. Bai Lufeng was more of a hedonist while Wu Yuanxu was rather conservative. The difference in talent, upbringing, and age created this startling difference. While Bai Lufeng fought plenty of battles and seen many things in his three thousand years of life, Wu Yuanxu was a small character who lived for only several hundred years.

One suffered untold struggles for survival, life, and saw the cruelty that a long one brings. Such as watching your wife, children, grandchildren die. To the point that you stop keeping track of your seed. However, Wu Yuanxu wishes to start his own clan and watch his family rise.

Despite this difference, they did get along. Not like Tao and Yan Zaizen, but close.

From the spatial ripple, Yan Zaizen and Tao entered the room. Bai Lufeng and Wu Yuanxu's eyes brightened, they were expectant of Yan Zaizen's return. As they saw him with Tao in a brown slave attire, Bai Lufeng chuckled and commented, ”You finally dressing appropriately?”

Tao coldly snorted, ignoring Bai Lufeng. However, his eyes couldn't help see a slight light in Bai Lufeng's eyes that was vastly different than he was before. He didn't know what he experienced, but for some reason, he felt it was far worse than being someone's servant for a year. Therefore, he didn't say anything else.

He went to the table and grabbed a wine jug, pouring himself a glass. He initiated conversation with Wu Yuanxu. As someone who was in the Deep Mines with Yan Zaizen, they exchanged a lot of stories, so he knew how this person helped him to his current path. It may have seemed small, but he understood a lot about soul cultivation from him.

Yan Zaizen faintly smiled, grabbing a glass himself and sitting down. During these three years, one experienced near death, one actually died and revived, one was severely tortured, and another made a sworn oath to be a slave for his entire life. Yet, now they were together, healthy and vibrant enjoying good wine and good company.

No matter how strong you get, this is what it means to enjoy life. To be surrounded by those who you want to be surrounded by. Drinking with those you wished to drink with and relaxing in the safety and comfort.

[Author's Note]:

This represents the end of Volume 2: A Step Towards Heaven.

And the beginning of Volume 3.

I'll be taking a break for a week(From 28th to the 4th). I think, truly, I need to take a break during each volume's end(Which I plan to do from now on). We've reached 165 Chapters in a little over two months and it has been an amazing journey! But as many suggest, it's about time I take a relaxing break. I've done a 7 chapter week before, but that was mostly filled with writing. It's time for a real break.

The 10 Chapters unreleased for this week will be mass released for both *******(Depending on Tier) and here on Friday the 6th! So, next week, we'll be having a 26-Release Week. Biggest we've ever done. I'm excited to get this new volume underway! Next Volume will be the longest in length, filled with the most intense situations and battles thus far. Especially from the middle to end, I can't wait for you all to read!
