Chapter 101: That person as old as his heart has aged

With his ability, Gu Yue Dong Tu could easily find Fang Yuan's residence.

He wore the Teacher Gu uniform that he rarely wore; he had a foot bandage around his feet and wore a red belt on his waist. Everything was neat and clean, and exuded a faint feeling of grandeur.

He looked towards Fang Yuan who was slowly coming and his line of sight fell on the latter's belt; a deep emotion surfaced in his heart.

“Only a C-class talent but he has broken through rank two in sixteen, it was truly shocking. I really don't know how he succeeded. However, this fast speed should mostly be attributed to the Liquor worm. Too bad the Liquor worm is of no use in Rank two. ”

After which, he saw a faint smile hanging on Fang Yuan's mouth.

This smile made Gu Yue Dong Tu's heart turn cold.

Anger ran through his mind, "This kid is acting so calm, does he think he has me trapped inside his palm ?!"

Fang Yuan slowly walked up and stopped in front of Gu Yue Dong Tu, he knew the latter must be here for him.

Sure enough, Gu Yue Dong Tu opened his mouth, "Fang Yuan, I think we can talk."

"What do you want to say?" Fang Yuan slightly frowned.

Gu Yue Dong Tu laughed but then spoke of something else, "Is it you, I am just like you, I became Master Gu when I was fifteen years old."

“It was true at the time of the wolf tide, there were many casualties and we – students – also had no choice but to fight. I have class B talent; I reached the early stage two rank at sixteen, the upper stage at seventeen and the peak stage at eighteen. When I was nineteen, I had already started my task to rank three. At that time, I believed I could become a rank three Master Gu at the age of twenty. ”

“Hahaha, I was too reckless, I thought I was above everyone else and thought I could achieve anything. I even thought I was omnipotent, I had absolutely no idea of the vastness of heaven and earth. That was when I was twenty. I went out to do a mission and was beaten by the Gu Master of Xiong village. I was on the verge of death but fortunately, the medicine room elder personally moved and saved me. But after that incident, my talent dropped to C value, I could not recover from this shock for eight years.”

“On my twenty-ninth birthday, I began to see myself and this world again. I found that the power of one person was limited. So what if I manage to break through the rank three? Living in this society, the most important thing is not the strength of the individual, but the relationship with others.”

“I started a new life when I was thirty years old. I got off the front line when I was forty-five. Hundred Master Gu together petitioned to elect me as an elder dozens of times. Even though I only have a rank two peak stage cultivation, I am unable to take that last step but it is also unnecessary. I have achieved success. The clan members called me a 'hidden elder'. Most of my colleagues have died but my life sailed smoothly. I still have influence on many Master Gu. ”

After giving a long report, Gu Yue Dong Tu returned to the main topic. He looked at Fang Yuan, his mouth curved upwards, “Fang Yuan, you are too young and inexperienced, just like me back then. Believe that you can accomplish anything and solve everything yourself. Hehe."

Gu Yue Dong Tu shook his head and continued, “But when you gain more experience, you will understand that humans are social creatures and not single animals. Sometimes we need to keep our heads down and take a step back. Being an extremist and arrogant person will only bring alienation and destruction. I'm sure you've already felt it; no group will take you and everyone will leave you. Even if you accept a family inheritance mission, what's the point? As a person left behind by everyone, you will definitely not have the opportunity to complete the task. Surrender."

Fang Yuan indifferently looked at the middle-aged man; his expression, calm.

"I wonder what expression he would show if he knew I had five hundred years of experience?"

Fang Yuan's eyes could not help but reveal a slight smile as he thought of this.

In fact, his uncle's way of thinking had been a concept of his life for a long time in his previous life.

Thus, he had created the Bloodwing Demon Sect, relying on human systems and emotions to create an enormous influence. Ten thousand would appear with his one call, seizing resources and fighting the enemy.

However, when he broke through to Rank six, he saw an entirely new sight.

Master Gu up to Rank five was human but Rank six was immortal. When he stood at that height and looked at the world, he suddenly understood — enormous influences were indeed a powerful help but at the same time an enormous burden.

No matter which world, there was only one thing that was truly reliable; it was yourself.

It's just that such people are usually weak. People can't stand being lonely and love to pursue family love, friendship, and romance to fill their spirits. They enjoy being in groups and are afraid of being alone.

When they receive a setback, they will hide in groups, complain to relatives and share with friends. They did not dare to face their own fears and defeats. When there is pain, they will be busy sharing it; when there is something good, they will be eager to boast about it.

Gu Yue Dong Tu succeeded? No doubt he succeeded.

He could not walk on his original path, so he went the other way and went to a new scene.

But at the same time, he also failed.

He had lowered his head due to one setback; he was nothing more than a coward, but he was satisfied with his escape.

Gu Yue Dong Tu did not know Fang Yuan had labeled him a coward. He saw Fang Yuan not answering, so he thought the latter was absorbed in his speech.

He continued, “Fang Yuan, I will not beat around the bush, you are not Fang Zheng. If you let go of your idea of inheriting family assets, you will accept my friendship and you can use all of my connections. I'll also give you a thousand ancient stones. I know you're having trouble getting money these days and you're even late to pay your two-day rent, right? ”

Fang Yuan indifferently smiled and spoke, "Uncle, you don't wear these clothes often, do you?"

Gu Yue Dong Tu was surprised, he did not expect that Fang Yuan would suddenly talk about this.

Fang Yuan was indeed right, he had long since retired, this uniform was usually stored deep in the box. He had worn this uniform especially to meet Fang Yuan today; it was to increase his persuasion and deterrence power.

"You old. Uncle. Your great ambitions and aspirations have disappeared from your youth. These years, you have lived an easy life and it has damaged your heart. You are vying for family assets, not to cultivate but to sustain your rich life. With that kind of mentality, how can you hinder me?

Gu Yue Dong Tu's face instantly turned deathly pale, anger raging in his mind.

There's always a bunch of 'old' people in this world. They tout their social experiences everywhere. They regard the dreams of others as illusions; regard the passions of others as reckless; regard the persistence of others as arrogance. They will seek their own existence and excellence by lecturing the next generations.

Undoubtedly, Gu Yue Dong Tu was such a person.

He wanted to educate Fang Yuan but he never thought that Fang Yuan would not only not listen to him or give up on him, but would instead lecture him!

“Fang Yuan!” Gu Yue Dong Tu shouted, "I want to guide and persuade you with good intentions as your elder, but you don't know what is good and bad. Hmph, since you want to fight me, so be it. I'm not afraid to tell you that I already know the contents of your family's legacy mission. Young people do not know the vastness of heaven and earth. Haha, I really want to see how you will complete this mission!”

Fang Yuan had a mocking smile on his face, there was no need to hide it now. After all, they could no longer reconcile, so there was no harm in enjoying Gu Yue Dong Tu's impending beautiful expression.

After which, he took out a water bag of bull skin and opened it; a scent that was special for honey wine floated out.

"What do you think is here?" She asked.

Gu Yue Dong Tu turned pale from fright, his mood instantly descending to an all-time low.

“How can this be? Where did you get this honey wine ?! ” She roared, a surprised expression appeared on her face.

Fang Yuan ignored him, closed the lid, returned the water bag and walked towards the internal affairs hall.

Gu Yue Dong Tu's forehead was filled with cold sweat, many thoughts were raging in his mind.

“Where did he get honey wine from? I've made sure that as long as he looks for another group, I'll get the news first time. Could he be doing this alone? No, it's impossible, he doesn't have Gu's defense worm. Someone must have helped him. Nah! The point now is not to look for excuses. This boy already has honey wine, he will give up his mission!”

Gu Yue Dong Tu was already panicking at the thought of this and no longer had a calm appearance from a moment ago.

He quickly chased after Fang Yuan, "Fang Yuan, wait, things can be discussed."

Fang Yuan did not speak and continued walking, Gu Yue Dong Tu could only follow beside him.

"If a thousand ancient stones can't, then how about two thousand, no, two thousand five hundred." Gu Yue Dong Tu continued to increase his bid.

Fang Yuan turned a deaf ear to Gu Yue Dong Tu, instead putting even more hope towards the family assets. Seeing how Gu Yue Dong Tu was so anxious and constantly raised the bid, the real family assets must have been very good.

Gu Yue Dong Tu was sweating, he saw Fang Yuan not moving, his face showed a ferocious expression and he threatened, "Fang Yuan, think this over clearly! What end would you have if you offended me, hmph, don't blame Uncle for being cold-hearted if you lose an arm or leg in the future.

Fangyuan laughed.

This Gu Yue Dong Tu was truly a pitiful person. He was bound by rules and regulations; the water bag was clearly within his reach, but he did not dare to seize it. If he didn't even have this much guts, how could he manage to fight for the advantage?

Wealth and danger go hand in hand. No matter which world, if you want to get something, you have to pay the price.

“Fang Yuan, you think everything will be fine once you get the family assets! You are too young, you have no clue about the community and its dangers!” Gu Yue Dong Tu growled in Fang Yuan's ears.

Fang Yuan shook his head and ignored him, walking into the internal affairs hall before his glaring eyes.

In fact, he did not hate or even hate this uncle.

He had seen many such people and understood this type of person.

If Fang Yuan had enough ancient stones to support his cultivation, he would not even fight for the family's assets. But what was the point of giving insignificant benefits to uncle?

For what reason was he born again?

Not for this momentary period, but to step onto the highest peak. Passers-by like this, as long as they did not disturb this and only went berserk from the side, Fang Yuan would underestimate even stepping on them.

But unfortunately, this Gu Yue Dong Tu was blocking Fang Yuan's path.

Since that was the case, then he would step on this hurdle and move forward.

“Fang Yuan! Fang Yuan...” Uncle Gu Yue Dong Tu watched as Fang Yuan stepped into the internal affairs hall; his entire body trembled and veins protruded on his forehead.

The sunset light shone on her already whitened hair.

He is old.

When he had that injury at the age of twenty, he was old.
