Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Cough, cough! Manager, the taster of your inn’s Shrimp Pig Heart is quite good.”
Shen Tian picked up a shrimp using his chopsticks and looked to the side, away from Zhao Hao as he felt guilty.
Who the heck knows who that princess in Zhao Hao’s mouth is! Many girls were pestering in the Myriad Spirit Garden back then.
If I had known that I was one of the reasons his engagent was called off, I shouldn’t have fed him with that much positivity just now.
What if he really rises up and succeeds in the future? Won’t he hold a grudge against and co find trouble for , even disfiguring !?
At that thought, Shen Tian could not help but have a headache—just why did he always beco the scapegoat for such weird things?
Zhao Hao looked at Shen Tian with resentnt. “Brother Shen, do you know that Shen Aotian?”
Shen Tian shook his head. “What Shen Aotian? I have not heard of him before!”
Zhao Hao replied reluctantly, “I know that Brother Shen is giving face. You don’t want to crush my self-confidence.
“I thank you for your kind intentions, but if Brother Shen was really that handso man in Princess Xue Wuxia’s mouth, then I am convinced.
“Not only is Brother Shen’s appearance much more handso than mine, but you also have a firm will that has overco various adversities. If I were Princess Xue Wuxia, then I wouldn’t be able to settle for others after eting Brother Shen either.”
Zhao Hao’s attitude dumbfounded Shen Tian.
This fellow is actually this rational!?
Logically speaking, being such a kind of MC with an eight-year-old syndro, shouldn’t Zhao Hao be incredibly stubborn and unable to reason with?
How co when he learned that his engagent was broken because my appearance dominates his, he actually did not see as his mortal enemy?
Brother Zhao, being so calm is not your persona!
The doubtful Shen Tian asked, “Brother Zhao, are you really not angry?”
Zhao Hao took a deep breath and said calmly, “It’s just the words of a girl. I originally did not feel anything about the arranged marriage. I was just angry because they humiliated by breaking off the engagent with . As Brother Shen says, a talented genius should have lofty aspirations and a broad mind. I am not a petty person.”
Although Zhao Hao still seed haggard, his eyes were exceptionally clear and bright.
Thus, Shen Tian felt relieved. He patted Zhao Hao’s shoulders and gave him a bowl of Shrimp Pig Heart. “Brother Zhao has grown. Since that’s the case, I’ll be frank too. That’s right. I am Shen Aotian.”
Zhao Hao stared at Shen Tian, and his clear eyes gradually beca resentful. “So it was really you?”
Shen Tian replied helplessly, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be angry? Brother Zhao, if you’re like this, you’re not counted as a true man.”
If I’m like this, I’m not counted as a true man?
Zhao Hao was stunned, while his eyes turned red and tears were building up in them.
F*ck! Brother Shen, you’ve let experience such humiliation, being scolded ugly by the princess while pointing her finger at ! Now you say that I’m not a true man? That’s too much!
What upset Zhao Hao, even more, was realizing that if he really did get angry, then he would really not be a true man.
Sigh... I feel wronged! But I’m not going to say that!
Zhao Hao lowered his head and ate the Shrimp Pig Heart, one bite after the other.
Zhang Yunxi, who was standing at the side, had ford a lightning mask on her face, so her expression was hidden. However, one could see from her moving shoulders that she was definitely trying hard to suppress her laughter.
At that mont, Zhao Hao felt even more upset. “Brother Shen, I heard that you were proficient in searching and assessing ores?”
Shen Tian nodded. “Truthfully speaking, I have obtained the heritage of Supremacy Feyte and learned the Feyte Dao Sutra from him. Searching and assessing ores is but one small part of it. What I’m best in are actually physiognomy and divination.” As he spoke, Shen Tian stared straight at Zhao Hao’s forehead. “Brother Zhao, don’t worry. The hardships you’re experiencing now are not a bad thing.”
Zhao Hao was astounded. “Brother Shen, please advise . Is it possible that the hardships I’m experiencing are actually good?”
Shen Tian nodded. “When the heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a great man, it always first frustrates his spirit and will, exhausts his muscles and bones, exposes him to starvation and poverty, and both parents must die—”
Zhao Hao exclaid, “What!?”
Shen Tian’s mouth twitched as he accidentally said what he was thinking.
He hurriedly explained, “The cat mustn’t be let out of the bag. There seems to be so power stopping . This is a kind of warning!
“One would not completely hit rock bottom, and words cannot be all spoken... The ti is not right, so I dare not lie. Or else, there might be great misfortune!”
Zhao Hao seed to be deep in thought when he saw how serious Shen Tian was. “What Brother Shen says indeed makes sense.”
Other than the “both parents must die” nonsensical part, the first half of the sentence was quite reasonable. Since ancient tis, all the cultivators who had succeeded in Immortal Ascension had all been through great adversities and had tenacious wills.
Zhao Hao had also evidently felt that after experiencing the joys and sorrows of the mortal world, as well as the fickleness of human nature in this period of ti, his Dao Heart had changed qualitatively. Coupled with Shen Tian’s encouraging words previously, Zhao Hao was even more determined to his Dao in the future. It was a kind of growth.
In reality, the improvent in one’s Dao Heart was even more important than strengthening one’s body. Spirit Stones could not replace it.
In order to increase one’s cultivation levels to the Nascent Soul and Soul Formation stages, respectively after the Golden Core stage, one had to rely on their Dao Heart.
As Brother Shen said just now, heaven is about to place a great responsibility on . Thus, all the hardships I’ve experienced now are all heaven’s test!
Zhao Hao could feel his blood boiling from excitent.
So, I’m a person favored by the heavens!?
Shen Tian finally heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that Zhao Hao was quite easy to deceive.
“Alright then! Since I could et Brother Zhao here, it must be that we are fated. If Brother Zhao does not mind, we could travel together these few days. When the ti is right, I could help Brother Zhao to rise back to glory!”
When Zhao Hao heard that, his eyes brimd with tears.
“Brother Shen, I’m so touched! I definitely have to recite a poem in such a situation. Please, allow to take seven steps first. That’s it!”
“Misfortune dropped from heaven, the princess breaks off the engagent. Thank goodness there’s Brother Shen, helping to change my destiny for a second chance!
“I’ve spoken enough.” Zhao Hao picked up the jug of Divine Drunken Wine. “I’ll beco drunk for the last ti today, leaving all my bitterness in the wine!”
After finishing, Zhao Hao stepped onto the stool with his left leg and poured the jug of Drunken Divine Wine that was as big as one’s head into his mouth.
That posture and aura!
Shen Tian’s heart skipped a beat.
It can’t be he is a transmigrator dude from the northeast of China!?
However, no matter what, this half-black and half-gold guinea-pig halo has stabilized. I will let him be first.
A fortuitous opportunity has yet to appear on Zhao Hao’s halo. Nonetheless, it does not matter as it was just a problem of sooner or later. As long as I bring Zhao Hao by my side and his fortuitous opportunity appears in the future, there will be no lack of chances for to freeload it.
...
After drinking the whole wine jug, Zhao Hao grinned. His face had turned completely red again. “Hey, such a beautiful gal~”
That’s right, he beca a drunkard again, unable to differentiate genders after getting drunk. He kept on staring at Shen Tian and calling him ‘Fairy’.
Duang~
A wine jug directly struck the back of Zhao Hao’s head—that was the first ti Shen Tian used a jug to hit soone!
Honestly speaking, the feeling of hitting him with the jug was aweso!
Most importantly, Zhao Hao was so drunk he could not differentiate a man from a woman. Thus, Shen Tian did not even need to feed him the Forgetting Pill.
Shen Tian gradually understood Shopkeeper Song’s joy.
Willful, carefree, and aweso!
