Chapter 1184
Green mountains spread far into the distance . The secluded path twisted through the land, and the greenery was thriving with life as it was nourished by a fine drizzle .
There was no killing, no fighting, no sinister schemes . Walking along the small stone steps, Long Chen felt his heart relaxing . He quietly enjoyed this feeling .
But Xia Youluo was completely unable to sense this feeling . The environment she had grown up in was already peaceful without any danger .
Xia Youluo had yet to recover from her shock . But looking at how sloppy Long Chen looked as he chewed a stalk of grass and hummed a vulgar tune, she was finally sure that this was the true Long Chen . The previous Long Chen had definitely been possessed by the Wine God .
“Girl, come and pick a path!” Long Chen smiled toward Xia Youluo upon seeing three possible paths in front of them .
“If you call me girl again, I’ll get angry . My name is Youluo!” Being repeatedly called a girl by Long Chen made her feel like a small bum beetle .
If Long Chen hadn’t generously split ‘half’ his wine with her, she would have already exploded .
“Alright, Youluo . Come pick a path,” Long Chen corrected himself . Jokes should be stopped before they went too far . However, he truly wished to be her uncle so that he could call the emperor of the Grand Xia big brother .
“Why have me choose?” asked Xia Youluo .
“Because you are the envoy sent by the Wine God . You are the fairy that will enlighten the Wine God Palace’s disciples . So you choose . ” Long Chen smiled .
Although he was just teasing her, Xia Youluo was happy to be called a fairy . “Hmph, it’d be strange if anyone believed you . But even if all you said was nonsense, thank you for winning back my face . ” Clearly, she was still very happy about how the Wine God Palace’s disciple had bowed and apologized to her .
“There’s no need to thank me . We’re working together, so we must be sincere and honest with each other . Pick a path,” pushed Long Chen .
“Then this one . ” Xia Youluo pointed toward the central path .
Long Chen put on an act of deep ponderment, scratching his head and counting on his fingers . “Good, we’re walking the straight and narrow . To walk in the middle of the three great paths, princess’s directions can lead a person to the clouds and sky . Yes, this must be the path to get rich . Let’s go!”
Xia Youluo looked at Long Chen chewing a piece of grass with a serious expression . They completely contradicted each other, and adding in his crazy words, Xia Youluo bent over in laughter .
“Princess, why are you laughing? Are you questioning my abilities to peer through the heavens and see through fate?” said Long Chen with a displeased expression .
“Please, stop teasing me . My stomach’s starting to hurt from laughing . Your manner was pretty similar to those fellows from the Heavenly Fate Pavilion . ” Xia Youluo was almost unable to breathe as she laughed . There was even some light sweat on the tip of her nose, like a peach blossom touched with dew .
“Your people have a relationship with the Heavenly Fate Pavilion?” Long Chen was caught off-guard .
“No . But when the Grand Han’s delegates come, some disciples from the Heavenly Fate Pavilion accompany them . They act very similar to what you just did,” said Xia Youluo .
“Do you often have dealings with the Grand Han?” asked Long Chen .
“Not really . After all, the relationship between our two nations is a bit tense, so we don’t have many interactions,” said Xia Youluo disappointedly . “I just don’t understand why my father has to have such a tense relationship with the Grand Han . The Grand Han’s people are so nice, and there are so many touching romantic stories from there that can make me cry . Both the men and women are so dedicated and faithful to each other . ”
Xia Youluo’s eyes became unfocused as she sank into her beautiful fantasies .
“Sometimes what you see is what people intentionally let you see . Sometimes what you hear is what people intentionally let you hear . If you want to understand a person or a nation, you can’t just look at its exterior . That will cause your judgment to be gravely mistaken . ” Long Chen shook his head .
What Long Chen hadn’t expected was for Xia Youluo to immediately get enraged by his words . “You… you’re just spouting nonsense . You’re clearly jealous of them to say such bad words about them . ”
He finally lost his patience . “Haha, jealous? In this world, no one can make me jealous . Furthermore, I disdain saying bad words about someone . It was your big brother who told me to advise you . But why would I want to do such a stupid thing? I’m good at killing people, but advising others isn’t my forte . You’re eighteen now? When I was eighteen, I had already grown indifferent to life and death as I fought for my brothers and sisters . As for you, you’re a brainless, stubborn fool who would rather believe in your own wishful thinking than see the truth . Do you realize you have two eyes and two ears? But how much do they get used? The heavens gave you a head for you to use it . Pigs always have ears, but their ears are big so that they listen to others without using their minds . In the end, when they are about to be slaughtered, they will not hesitate to send themselves to their deaths when called,” sneered Long Chen .
This girl had been completely brainwashed by the idiots of the Grand Han and could no longer see reason . If someone was really able to change her mind, it would be truly heaven-defying .
Long Chen was unable to do such a thing . This work was too enraging . He was full of regret over his decision to help Xia Yunchong . Otherwise, he wouldn’t be stuck in such an irritating position .
