Chapter 82: Gossiping About the Future

Translator: TransnEditor: Transn

Truth to be told, luck was a kind of unseen and untouchable thing. Even if one really met with something unfortunate, often it would be after suffering a lot then one would notice. Hence, in the end, the conclusion that Xu Yong came up with was that, when one was in the Jianghu, one must be careful. To be extra careful at all times. Another thing was not to treat oneself as someone very important and one shouldn't think that one could be something just because one knew a bit of martial arts with a decent background.

There was always a person above another or a mountain higher than another. This world was too big; there was no one who could truly walk around without fear.

”Teacher, do you know how to refine and smelt a magic weapon?!”

Riding on the horse, Junior Leopard asked. He knew the real reason that Xu Yong came to Ningzhou City and he became curious. This teacher of his was indeed a master in smelting. However, this refinement of magic weapon was a completely different matter from smelting.

”I only know some method to forge a wizard weapon!” Xu Yong said. ”There are many methods to forge a wizard weapon. I only know this kind which was passed down from the Wu's. It could be considered as a method however it was not the best. If there were suitable materials and Evil Qi, combining with this method, a decent wizard weapon could be forged. However, materials were hard to seek, so was Evil Qi. I only know the method but I don't have the chance to smelt it. Originally I thought that this time I would be able to fulfill my wish. Who would've thought that?”

Speaking till here, Xu Yong stopped, revealing a bitter smile.

”Teacher, you don't need to be discouraged. There will be chances!” Junior Leopard comforted. As for whether there would be other chances, only God knew.

Xu Yong obviously knew that Junior Leopard was comforting him and didn't want to get entangled in the topic. ”Okay, let's not talk so much about it. Let's return to the Wu Family first. Your body hasn't completely healed and you need a certain period of time to rest!” Speaking of which, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, ”Junior Leopard, what plans do you have when you return to your home?!”

Plans?!

Junior Leopard was stunned by the question. He didn't quite understand what he was saying.

”Now you can be considered to be a little wealthy. Even though it can't be considered having lots of riches, but you can buy some property within Qinlingjun City!” Xu Yong plainly said.

After hearing his saying, Junior Leopard instantly understood.

This time, Xu Yong didn't gain any benefit but Junior Leopard's rewards were not small.

Since he was hurt in the Wen Family when he was staying there, Wen Huayang felt very sorry about it. Therefore, when he recuperated in the Wen Family, not only did he receive large amounts of medicinal herbs to heal his injuries, but also given a bank note of 50,000 taels of silver before he left.

Junior Leopard originally didn't dare to accept it but Xu Yong would make the decision for him and accept it.

Even though he had doubts that couldn't be resolved in his heart, it wasn't appropriate to ask so much either. Now that Xu Yong suddenly asked with such a question, Junior Leopard didn't know how to answer.

Looking at Junior Leopard, Xu Yong smiled. ”Junior Leopard, you are already 12 years old. Even though that is not considered very old, you need to make your own decisions. 50,000 taels are not much; however it is enough to set up a business in Qinlingjun City!”

Business?

Junior Leopard had never thought about these things.

In his past life, he was born and raised under the red flag. He was also a civil servant. The so-called business was only a block of a house and a car only. After entering into this world, he was born in the village, only hoping that his stomach could be filled in those few years. Later he learned martial arts and in his heart, he only thought about practicing the martial arts well. As for building his own business, it seemed to be a very far away phrase.

”You may be the Wu's Inner Core disciple. However, you will only get a monthly stipend. You will have to wait until when before you can marry a wife? Even if you take over the family's missions, with your age, it is not possible to gain any mission with large remuneration. Why not just set up a business outside, in the future, there will be a retreat route as well!”

”This…!”

Junior Leopard looked at Xu Yong with a wooden expression. He really didn't know how to respond to that. In the legend of Jianghu, didn't a man lead a wandering life, only living for gratitude or revenge?

How could he start to think of setting up a family business and leading his small own life just after obtaining 50,000 taels of little money?

Seeing Junior Leopard's confused expression, Xu Yong suddenly laughed. He pointed at Junior Leopard, half laughing and half scoldingly said, ”Young boy, did you read too many books in the tea houses and lost your direction? Do you really think that those who come to the martial arts world and be in Jianghu would just be like what was said in the books, running through the whole world day and night and eating meat in large chunks and drinking wine in large gulps?”
