AST 1467 - Not happy, yet not too sad The Five Yang Pill is concocted

That was the point of the entire sentence – if it had been in the past, Qing Shui would never have dared to joke about it

Naturally, Tantai Lingyan was able to see through it The e of a situation, but she also felt a bit reluctant to reject him Hence, she nodded her head

“Sure, but only occasionally”

If neither made an effort to crack an occasional joke, their life would have just been about two people trying to pass ti Shui revealed a happy smile, “Sure, I will couarantee it won’t be more than that”

The wo Shui sounded when he spoke, and chose to stay silent She knew that much of what he said was just a joke so, naturally, she wouldn’t take it too seriously

Qing Shui returned to his own courtyard As it turned out, he lived quite near Tantai Lingyan; in fact, they were only two blocks away from each other, and if they both looked out theat the same tiained a lot from his experience this time The moment when the woman put the necklace around his neck he was already aware of how she felt for him But the woman still had another option in mind: to spend her entire life alone

He needed to work hard to change this His aiet her to marry someone, and if she was to marry anyone it would be none other than hi ht forward When growing up, every man should look for a wife and every woman should find a husband Left alone, everyone was a hu with ee was one everyone yan was no ordinary person

Today, he got to hold her hand for half a day It felt as though both of their hearts had grown closer Her heart, originally frozen in ice, see Shui could tell just by looking at her expression

In spite of this, he simply could not understand what the woman wanted As a matter of fact, he wondered whether she even had emotions at all

He entered the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal and started his cultivation like usual, where he was finally able to relax entirely Here there was less weighing on his epressure on him

Now that a lot of his troubles had been solved, even if just for a h both his body and oes: “drop the butcher’s knife and i Shui felt right now As he finally let off the burdens in his heart, his entire body felt lighter For a moment, his essence, qi and spirit were released and coether as one, his state of mind boosted once ht and stingy withinto great wealth Although, perhaps that wasn’t quite right It would be tough for a poor person to keep going if they weren’t conservative, but a totally different story once they becale over every penny This wasn’t being wasteful, it was just a way of thought

It was also a kind of pressure Pressure was a motivational tool, but the moment that pressure disappears one feels a sense of relief, relaxing their state of mind It is norht their entire life just to ensure they have warood food to eat Everyday they live their life in anxiety, worrying about suddenly losing their source of incoer have to worry about clothes and food, that pressure is gone and they feel their life has become easier For an instant, they would feel relieved

Usually this situation comes in two forms The first is when a person loses their past enthusiasotten easier, even for a one it becohs Akin to the saying “a beauty’s nest was horeat ambition has now trickled away

The second form of situation appears when a person decides to undertake the tough path to reach even greater heights Just like his past incarnation – the impoverished who suddenly became a millionaire – however he still is not content hat he has His life is easy, without needing to worry about their clothes or putting food on the table But this ti a billionaire, or even a zillionaire…

To best describe the first case scenario, in a kinder way, that person was simply content hat he had To be harsher, that person was lazy and reluctant to ress The same stands for the second scenario – you could say that the person was very enthusiastic and strived to continue i themselves, or you could say they were not content hat they had and co rich, they were under such heavy pressure that they were exhausted everyday Would there be any fun in their life?

Qing Shui was pondering over his own situation when suddenly he felt a bit lost Should he find himself in the first or second scenario? As a person who has lived twice, he has seen and heard a lot, but each had suffered in tragedies in the end Even the World of the Nine Continents was no exception For exah fro their soul from their body From many a perspective, this was not worth it There was bound to be those ould criticize hi content hat he had

The problem was not the criticisht? Many people regret their decision once it was made, feel that they didn’t appreciate what they had at the tiiven another chance, they would definitely chose not to break through instead

But there were those ould still choose to atteh the Fourth Realm even after they survived it

This was the kind of decision Qing Shui was facing now Before this, Tantai Lingyan had it was likely she would stop here, with no intentions of going to look for Immortal Five Sects After all, they were in Haohan Continent

If that was the case, for the tireat importance at hand With that in mind, should he be content hat he already had, or should he strive to cli Shui pondered over a few matters It wasn’t that he was dissatisfied hat he had, it was that he had no intention of ress This was easier said than done, or so anyone would think – the degree of self-control one needed for this was not so easily achieved
