That said, though this young master's behavior was absurd, a personality like his at least was not too hateable. Since it was on the way, Lin Xuan went with him, flying toward Nine Immortals Palace.
This fellow was not only overly familiar, but also extremely long-winded. Along the way, even though Lin Xuan barely responded to him, he still chattered on without ever stopping.
There was certainly a great deal of nonsense in it, but there was also quite a lot of useful information.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, so you've never been to Nine Immortals Palace before. To tell you the truth, I, Wu, have observed it for a long time and gathered all kinds of intelligence. Among the major powers of the East Sea, Nine Immortals Palace is definitely the most suitable place for Rogue Cultivators like us to join. Especially for Nascent Soul Realm cultivators like you and me—as long as we pass the assessment, we can become Outer Palace stewards. The treatment is extremely generous. Not only are we assigned a cultivation cave and maidservants, but every year we can also draw a rich stipend. It's absolutely carefree and delightful to the extreme," the young master said, his brows dancing with delight.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist is joining Nine Immortals Palace just to live carefree and happy?" A look of surprise appeared on Lin Xuan's face.
"Mm." Wu Yong nodded. "I won't hide it from you, Fellow Daoist. I have no great ambitions. Besides, with my aptitude, even if I cultivate diligently, unless I encounter some heaven-defying opportunity, I absolutely won't be able to advance to Lihe. Life is bitterly short. Since that's the case, why should I still cultivate properly..."
At this point, he gave Lin Xuan a meaningful look, then spoke with a slight air of mystery.
