101 The person is as old as his heart has aged (2/2)
”You are old. Uncle. Your great ambitions and aspirations have already disappeared from your youth. These years, you have lived an easy life and it has corrupted your heart. You are vying for the family assets, not for cultivation but to maintain your rich life. With such a mentality, how could you obstruct me?”
Gu Yue Dong Tu’s face instantly turned ashen, anger surging through his mind.
There was always a group of ‘old’ people in this world. They touted their social experience everywhere. They considered others’ dreams as illusions; considered others’ passions as frivolous; considered others’ persistence as arrogance. They would seek their own existence and superiority by lecturing the later generations.
No doubt, Gu Yue Dong Tu was such a person.
He wanted to educate Fang Yuan but he had never thought that Fang Yuan not only didn’t listen to him or yield to him, but would instead lecture him!
”Fang Yuan!” Gu Yue Dong Tu shouted, ”I wanted to guide and persuade you with good intentions as your elder but you don’t know what’s good from bad. Hmph, since you want to go against me, then so be it. I am not afraid to tell you that I already know the contents of your family inheritance mission. Young people don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Haha, I really want to see how you will complete this mission!”
Fang Yuan had a ridiculing smile on his face, there was no need to conceal now. Anyway, they could no longer reconcile, so there was no harm in enjoying Gu Yue Dong Tu’s upcoming wonderful expression.
Thereupon, he took out the bullskin water bag and opened it; a fragrance that was specific to honey wine floated out.
”What do you think is in here?” He asked.
Gu Yue Dong Tu turned pale with fright, his mood immediately sank to an all-time low.
”How can this be? Where did you get this honey wine?!” He roared, a stunned expression appeared on his face.
Fang Yuan ignored him, closed the cap, put the water bag back and walked towards the internal affairs hall.
Gu Yue Dong Tu’s forehead was covered with cold sweat, many thoughts surging in his mind.
”Where did he get the honey wine? I already made sure that as long as he looks for other groups, I would get the news the very first moment. Could he have done this alone? No, that’s not possible, he doesn’t have a defense Gu worm. Someone definitely helped him. No! The point now is not finding the reason. This kid already has the honey wine, he is going to hand over the mission!”
Gu Yue Dong Tu was already panicking as he thought this and no longer had the calm appearance from moments ago.
He quickly chased after Fang Yuan, ”Fang Yuan, wait, everything can be discussed.”
Fang Yuan didn’t speak and continued to walk, Gu Yue Dong Tu could only follow beside him.
”If one thousand primeval stones won’t do, then how about two thousand, no, two thousand five hundred.” Gu Yue Dong Tu kept on increasing the offer.
Fang Yuan turned a deaf ear to Gu Yue Dong Tu, instead increasingly having some expectations towards the family assets. On seeing how Gu Yue Dong Tu was so anxious and was continuously raising the offer, the real family assets should definitely be very good.
Gu Yue Dong Tu was perspiring, he saw Fang Yuan was not moved, his face revealed a fierce look and he threatened, ”Fang Yuan, think this through clearly! What end will you have if you offend me, hmph, don’t blame uncle for being cold-hearted if you miss an arm or leg in the future.”
Fang Yuan laughed.
This Gu Yue Dong Tu was really a lamentable person. He was bound by rules and regulations; the water bag was clearly within his reach, but he didn’t dare to snatch it. If he didn’t even have this much guts, how could he succeed in fighting for the benefits?
Riches and danger went together. No matter which world, if you want to obtain something, you need to pay its price.
”Fang Yuan, you think everything will be well after you get the family assets! You are too young, you don’t have a clue about society and its dangers!” Gu Yue Dong Tu snarled by Fang Yuan’s ear.
Fang Yuan shook his head and ignored him, walking into the internal affairs hall in front of his glaring eyes.
Actually, he didn’t hate or even loathe this uncle of his.
He had seen a lot of such people and understood this type of people.
If Fang Yuan had enough primeval stones to support his cultivation, he wouldn’t even fight for the family assets. But what good will giving such insignificant benefits to uncle do?
For what reason was he reborn?
It was not for this momentary period, but to step to the highest peak. This type of passerby, as long as they didn’t interfere with this and only raged from the side, Fang Yuan would disdain to even step on them.
But unfortunately, this Gu Yue Dong Tu obstructed Fang Yuan’s path.
Since it was so, then he will stamp on this obstacle and move forward.
”Fang Yuan! Fang Yuan…” Uncle Gu Yue Dong Tu watched on as Fang Yuan stepped into the internal affairs hall; his whole body shook and veins bulged up on his forehead.
The light of the setting sun shone on his hair which was already turning white.
He was indeed old.
When he sustained that injury at the age of twenty, he had already aged.

Chapter 101... Well when I started out, having never translated before, I took so long (a few days) just translating the first chapter. I never would have thought I would reach 100 today, it was hard to imagine back then. Thank you everyone for your support!!
