Destiny is ashes
Chapter 831 You are not loyal!
Chapter 831 You are not loyal! (23)
In an instant, An Jing’s aura disappeared. He had originally practiced Xuan Bu, and when the Huang Tian Hou Tu Fa finally evolved into the ‘Supreme Heaven and Man True Solution’, An Jing’s aura could merge with the aura of heaven and earth at any time to achieve the unity of heaven and man.
This can be used in conjunction with ‘Sun Infinity’, and can also be used to conceal aura.
After concealing his aura, An Jing quickly approached Nian Quan’s residence. In this state, as long as he was not within the coverage of the other party’s domain, the True Lord might not be able to discover him.
“…I’m not targeting you personally, Nianquan. I repeat, I have no problem with you! I’m only targeting your plans and decisions!”
“If you really only care about the planning and decision-making, then why didn’t you give me your opinions before, and had to wait until An Jing left to come to me alone? Do you think An Jing won’t listen to advice, or do you think I’m narrow-minded?”
The conversation between the two was relatively restrained, but the smell of gunpowder was indeed overflowing. An Jing frowned slightly. He could hear that the argument between the two started not long ago. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the time when the “water army propaganda” began?
At this moment, Huo Qing’s voice sounded again. He took a deep breath and said, “Okay, then I’ll tell you the truth. Nianquan, I think you’ve gone to school stupidly. You actually believe that those young masters will change themselves and follow An Jing’s career because of some illusory dream or pursuit… I don’t know if you are stupid or you trust An Jing too much, to the point of being unrealistic.”
“Those young masters who live in luxury and whose daily elixirs are enough to support us poor people for several years… Ha, I believe that there are good people among them. After knowing the plight of the lower class, they will sympathize with us and have mercy on us… It’s a condescending pity, a superficial sympathy.”
“How many saints do you think will appear in a thousand years, like An Jing, who obviously has a powerful background and profound inheritance, but is really focused on thinking about how to change the world?”
“There always is.”
Nian Quan said in a deep voice: “Since it is possible, we must strive for it. Even if only one appears in a thousand years, we will live for a thousand years and wait for the next one!”
Nianquan said it with absolute certainty, but Huo Qing almost laughed out of anger: “I was exaggerating, do you really count it? I’ll be honest, there won’t be any, An Jing is special, I’ve never seen anyone like him!”
“Nianquan, I really want to ask you, have you forgotten? We are all people at the bottom! When those ‘geniuses and proud people’ who oppress us and those aristocratic companies were squeezing the bottom, did these young masters and young ladies really do anything? Even if they really did, when they grow up, won’t they all become like their fathers and grandfathers!”
Unprecedented. Huo Qing’s attitude was extremely angry and harsh. His words were like those of a warrior, direct and merciless: “You choose to believe them, why don’t you just say that you believe the company can reform itself successfully and return to the Dao Court of the past?”
However, Nianquan remained calm in the face of such accusations.
“Are you trying to say that I betrayed you?”
He said calmly: “Is this what you really think?”
Huo Qing also let out a breath, and he calmed down a little, but he didn’t show any mercy: “Indeed, at least there is this trend.”
“In the past, you hated big companies and wanted to destroy them. You entered No. 3 Middle School to use their resources. In the future, you want to recruit their younger generation… So will the future be about internal reforms? A top-down policy change?”
“Have you forgotten your mother’s revenge? When they were so high up and decided to kill everyone in the black market, who would object and help those innocent people?”
Hearing his mother, Nianquan was silent for a while. He was taking a deep breath, and then he said angrily, “Of course I remember. But I know better that my mother would not want me to become an evil ghost who only wants to destroy everything. What I want to do is to change the world. My actions are only for this goal. I don’t need the approval of others, including yours. I will prove it myself.”
At this point, he raised his hand, pointed at Huo Qing, and his words became more sarcastic: “On the contrary, you, Huo Qing, why are you so angry all of a sudden? At least I still have my mother’s revenge to avenge. Although you live at the bottom of society, you are still taken care of by your uncle and aunt. Why are you going crazy here now?”
“I don’t like to compare people’s misery, but if I have to say something, I really envy you for having relatives who truly care about you. You are the one who has a way out!” – Oh, no, these two people’s quarrel has affected their relatives!
When An Jing heard this, he felt something was not good. It was actually a small matter for people like them to quarrel and insult each other. They could just curse at each other and still be good brothers the next day. But when it came to relatives, it was not just a quarrel but an enmity.
How could this happen? Suddenly, there was a fire in the back? It seemed that I had made the right choice by coming back directly. Now that I was down, we should be able to talk openly about our respective ideas.
However, the expected scene of escalating tensions between the two sides did not occur.
The two fell into silence for a while, and then Huo Qing spoke first.
“hot pot.”
Nianquan frowned, and Huo Qing continued: “It’s because of the hot pot.”
“Hot Pot?”
Nianquan was puzzled: “What do you mean?”
“I mean, I was actually more naive than you were before.”
Huo Qing turned his head and looked towards the city center. “The hot pot restaurant that Teacher Guang took us to last time is doing a booming business. The ingredients are fresh and delicious. There are beef, mutton, and a lot of spirit beast meat.”
“An Jing is probably used to eating these. He was teaching Qu Tong and guiding him to walk his own path, just like he guides us. He didn’t concentrate on eating… and I ate a lot. It was really delicious.”
Turning his head, Huo Qing looked at Nian Quan, their black eyes met their blue eyes. Nian Quan could vaguely see an uncontrollable anger in those deep eyes: “I learn the formation, but I am a physical cultivator and a martial artist. Nian Quan, a good meal is very important to me. My magical power is also a method of physical training, so I know very well that the money for that meal is enough for my food expenses for the past year.”
“And in the city center, how many people shop at this store every day? If you average it out, how many starving people can eat well? How many people in the wilderness can survive?”
“Nianquan! Xuanye City… no, the four major groups, how much value have they created? That is absolutely an incredible number. Obviously everyone can have enough food, but there are still people who are poor. Obviously everyone can live in a good house and have a safe life, but there are still young people like me who have to join gangs, and then die for no reason, without any value, just die on the streets, die in the wilderness?”
“If your mother works hard and earns enough money, does she really need to work in the black market? Aren’t gangs fighting each other to deliberately consume the blood of the lower classes? Those upper echelons have never treated the lower class as human beings, and we are indeed not needed by them. The entire Xuan Ye City and the safe zone are just a container for cultivating diversity, and I have not forgotten where I came from!”
An Jing listened in silence. He thought of the time when he first came to Tianyuan Realm and plucked a bulletproof raincoat from a young gang member. That gang member was indeed only fifteen or sixteen years old, extremely young, but he died on the street, his body corroded by acid rain, and there were probably not many bones left in the end.
As a person of the same age as Huo Qing, how many of his childhood friends died in the acid rain?
Huo Qing’s anger was justified. An Jing had not forgotten, and neither had he. Huo Qing remembered where he came from, so he was unwilling to forget.
An Jing understood that these two people were not quarreling or simply arguing… they were truly thinking about the future, so they had to figure out each other’s sincerity now. If they could not trust each other without any doubt, then betrayal would truly arise in the future.
Maybe you don’t need to make dumplings yourself.
He is waiting.
And Nianquan did not disappoint his expectations.
