Chapter 19 (1/2)
The day's profit was satisfactory for Fang Xing, but Yu still needed to wrap his head around what had just happened
”Stop it! With your weak spine, it's no wonder everyone steps all over you!”
Once they'd returned to the cottage, Fang Xing decided to give hiood wash Yu, however, was still ashen-faced and inattentive; seeing this, Fang Xing picked up his water basin and poured it right over Yu, drenching him to the point he looked like a drowned rat Yu finally woke froh, ”shi+di Fang, I think I've started to admire you after what you've done today”
”What? You mean you didn't admire me before?”
”No no no, ever since that day at the herb fields I knew that someone like you would not be ordinary…” Naturally, Yu wouldn't tell Fang Xing what his real thoughts had been at the time
The truth was that Yu had been left with no other choice but to befriend Fang Xing Although Yu may have been much older in comparison, he was no , vicious, and hts that Yu decided to ga as the child didn't die too early, it was unlikely he would be content with an ordinary life, and if—when—Fang Xing succeeded, Yu would have been the one alongside hi needed help the most
Though Yu htest person in the world, he had nonetheless originally befriended Fang Xing with ulterior -term investment It was understandable, however; this was the method of survival for a nobody like him
As Yu caan to realize that—even though Fang Xing's words made him appear rude and unrestrained—he was not as self-centered and snobby as most of the other disciples at the sect Besides, after all of the wine and gossip sessions they'd shared together, they actually did get along rather well
This didn't stop Yu fro's friendshi+p, though
Yu had been disappointed at what see attitude after he had joined the outer court Co about noas like night and day, and people like this would usually be sent back down to the villages upon their third year Despite feeling quite helpless and regretful, Yu had dared not to say anything 's attitude back to where it had once been
It wasn't until today—after Fang Xing had easily taken down shi+xiong Liu and went on to rob three C-Ranked disciples—that Yu began to realize what Fang Xing was capable of For Yu, bullying soer was unfathomable
The splash of cold water finally brought Yu back to his senses What did he have to lose? Yu had befriended Fang Xing because the boy would do what needed to be done: he was bold and fearless If it weren't for this, Yu wouldn't have befriended Fang Xing in the first place!
'What a sluon he is He either does it to the absolute or he doesn't do it at all…' Yu sighed to hi a bit of confidence With a te wouldn't become someone influential one day
Perhaps that ”one day” for Fang Xing would also be the ”one day” for himself as well
Without a doubt, not even in Yu's wildest dreaon was not nearly as placid as he had i the outer court, Fang Xing had already caused a rather large event
nobodies like Yu had the understanding that a sluht on needed a nap after a satisfying meal
If the pluht at the Black Market, it ive hi
”By the hat happens if they take revenge on you? Since you've just robbed the finally thought everything through
Fro Liu had shown, he was definitely not a new recruit; including his years as a daotong, he was already in his fourth year within the sect It would not be an easy matter to solve with someone like this involved
”If I had been afraid of his revenge, I would have deserved his bullying anyouldn't I have just handed over the Stone then?” Fang Xing lightheartedly replied while wringing his hair dry ”Ree, I would have accepted his orders and worked for him in the herb fields without any coe, why didn't I just bend iveness when you came to the herb fields yourself?”
Hearing Fang Xing's tones growing heavier and heavier as he spoke, Yu stood up and started to hastily wave his hands ”shi+di Fang… I… I didn't mean it that way…”
”Sit down! I just said what I said, I wasn't iestured for Yu to sit back down after throwing the e, I won't accept living like that You know, shi+xiong Zhu, the only shortcoly and gluttonous… and your zi'zhi is also terrible Oh, you're lazy, too… Aii, I was going to co for me to compliment”
”My name is Yu…” Yu bitterly blurted out in a small voice
Ignoring Yu onceinstead took two Spirit Stones out of his pockets and threw thely, and lazy, but you're still kind of my friend; I have to be nice to you…”
”No no no no, you keep it for yourself,” Yu waved his fat arms in an anxious manner as the stones landed in his lap
