"I can't understand you" said Mr. Shangxuan. He was not surprised by what Ling said.
"I've heard a few things about you in this country. Don't think too much, I'm just a little curious. With your talent, you can learn potions and develop your knowledge or you can still study at the Star Academy. I actually don't want to interfere. I just feel like you're not the kind of person who likes to look for trouble. However, you are still dealing with things that are not related to you" said Mr. Shangxuan.
Then, he looked at Ling very deeply, "Isn't it exhausting to live like this on?"
Hearing Mr. Shangxuan's words and questions, Ling raised his head and looked out the window. He laughed.
"Mr Shangxuan, did you see that person? He is my friend, Zhuo Liam. He came today to see you. Of course you don't know him. Before he knew me, he was a useless person in Urban City. He's almost like me in the past. Because of his talent, his entire family was almost annihilated and he had to work hard to maintain his family. And next to him was Qi Yuan. If it wasn't for me, maybe he would still be an ordinary person now. He can live a quiet life without having to worry about anything and does not need to maintain life abroad as it is now. There are many more people you don't know. Some people think of me as a role model and others are still hiding themselves. I can't find them yet. Why do you think I do things like this? Those people, all of them, should have a better life and not be bothered with difficult problems. I am the one who leads all those who are on this path. All the overseas people were afraid of the resources in Shadow City. But, do you know? A few months ago, my family was almost destroyed by the Potion God Association secretly. Without Mei's Bomb Expert and nuclear weapons, perhaps the place we stand now would no longer exist" Ling explained. He paused for a moment and was deep in thought.
That's why he came here and brought the people from the Island Who Shouldn't Be Called. The duty of the people on the island to protect overseas remains unchanged. It is very difficult to make the Island That Cannot Be Called the Name into a country that everyone fears. However, he persisted to make this happen.
"That's why I have to work even harder! We still have to see the sun tomorrow! Because we still have to return to Shadow City! And because I still have to bring them home!" Ling put down his tea cup. There is a sense of stubbornness that cannot be explained.
It was not that he wanted to master everything, but his friends had worked very hard and never gave up. How could he just back off?
He turned his gaze to Master Shangxuan and sighed, "Mr Shangxuan, I know if you have never interfered with foreign affairs, so I don't agree to be your disciple. Because once I become your disciple, you will definitely be involved. There are already a lot of people doing this in Shadow City. I don't want you to be one more person like that."
Ling always understood his position, either when he was reborn or when he first lived. People's greed is the main reason, but that's not the most important reason.
When he found out there was a place like Shadow City, Ling panicked. There were too many ordinary people in Shadow City. If overseas powers wanted to take over their resources, who could protect them? When he had just been reborn, he actually wanted to avoid this. However, how could he easily forget the responsibility that had been engraved in his heart?
His brothers who had been through the sorrows with him, everyone who had fought for him, they were all waiting for him to return. Ling had watched his comrades die as he chose to retreat to Urban City. Even if he were to die later, he would never forgive himself.
This was the first time Mr. Shangxuan was stunned to hear Ling speak. He lifted his head and looked at Ling blankly.
After Ling finished speaking, the terrifying aura that had surrounded him instantly disappeared. His expression recovered and showed his majesty. He looked as lazy as before, as if he didn't care about anything.
Master Shangxuan did not know what and who Ling meant. However, seeing Ling like this, even her heart that had never wavered for so many years started to flare up again. For a moment, he even wanted to say if he was not afraid of the risks that would occur. Ling could still be his disciple.
However, he brushed off his thoughts and swallowed his words.
He sighed, "You look a lot like someone I know. You're both stubborn. Then, I will wait for you for half a month. In half a month, this token can be yours and can help you find me. Remember, don't let anyone know where you're going."
Ling took the token and held it. He looked at Mr. Shangxuan, "Thank you, Sir."
"Well, I'll stay here for three days. If any of your friends want to see me, please come. You can go" said Mr. Shangxuan.
Ling stood up and bowed to Master Shangxuan before leaving.
Outside, Liam's face beamed when he found out Mr. Shangxuan wanted to see him. He entered a little nervous.
Ling only shook his head when he saw her.
As he prepared to leave, he saw the purple-haired woman not far from there. He raised his eyebrows, "Why are you here?"
Hearing Ling's question, Su Yuri was slightly surprised and touched her hair, "Zhuo Liam told me to come. It just so happens that my shop is near here."
"Aren't you from the Su Family? Why are you setting up shop?" ask Ling again.
Su Yuri's face instantly turned grim, "I've always been at odds with Young Miss Su since I was a child. So, I left the Su Family when I was five years old. You can imagine for yourself what kind of family I have."
"Leaving the Su Family? Then are you willing to join another force?" asked Ling put one hand in her pocket.
Su Yuri was surprised, "Huh?"
"I still have business and I have to go back now. Liam will tell you later" Ling replied.
The God Potion Association had already nearly monopolized all the herbs overseas. Ling needed a potion expert again because Liam alone was not enough. Su Yuri came at the right time.
