"Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!" Wang Qi eagerly pulled a small dish of peanuts from his storage pouch and flicked two into his mouth with his fingers. "Ahhh, finally getting to see how these guys fight! Fight! Fight! Don't chicken out! They captured our brothers! Fight! Fight!"
For a moment, Bai Jizhen, the avatar envoy, found the scene utterly absurd.
"Um... Fellow Daoist Wang Qi, even if you do that, they can't hear you..."
"Tch, it's for the atmosphere!" Wang Qi raised the dish and offered it over. "Want some?"
Bai Jizhen's mind failed to keep up for a moment, and he reached out. But just as he lifted his hand, he hurriedly turned around. Seeing the stern gaze of his other direct superior, he immediately withdrew it. "N-No need... By the way, your storage pouch carries... peanuts?"
"Ordinary magical artifacts are useless to me, so I don't need them. Talismans are even less useful than magical artifacts, so naturally I don't need those either." Wang Qi explained, "The Heavenly Sword and the Beast Mechanism swarm are enough. And then... I have enough physical bodies. If one is gravely wounded beyond saving, then it might as well truly remain unsaved, lest resources be wasted. Thinking about it that way, medicinal pills are useless too—and at my realm, there really aren't many pills worth eating. After considering it all, the only thing truly worth carrying is a little food."
"A little..." Bai Jizhen looked at the storage pouch hanging at Wang Qi's waist. For Wang Qi, this thing was probably more of an "ornament"—after all, cultivators everywhere generally carried one, and going without a storage pouch did look somewhat awkward. For the human race of Divine Land, this counted as a small trend in clothing and accessorizing.
Given Wang Qi's circumstances...
