Trash Talk Was a Required Course for Me!
As night falls, I look up at the bright moon in the sky.
Having just encountered the darker, or rather, the true nature of this world for the first time, Lü Yan fell into a long silence and deep thought.
"So, that's why I hate you Mountain Folk."
"You are so naive, so naive that it's almost cruel and heartless."
As a small figure emerged from the shadows, Lü Yan couldn't help but look up at it.
"A Mo?"
Recognizing the other person's identity at a glance, Lü Yan blinked in confusion.
This is not only because of the other person's aloof personality, but also because of their unique appearance.
Even in this almshouse, there was only one person as unique as A Mo, so it was no wonder that Lü Yan was deeply impressed by him.
"My name isn't A Mo, it's Ao Mo."
Bathed in the bright moonlight, the small figure was finally fully exposed to Lü Yan's view.
His body was humanoid, but it was covered in scales.
A deformed Single Horn grows on the right side of the forehead, like a crown missing half.
However, what's most eye-catching is the tail behind it, which is now only half-finished, and it looks extremely eerie.
Even in the orphanage teeming with strange beings, Ao Mo's exaggerated appearance was truly unique.
"Ao Mo? You're Dragon Race?"
The content of the history class flashed through Lü Yan's mind, and he opened his mouth wide in surprise.
After learning the other party's surname and combining it with the other party's appearance, Lü Yan easily guessed Ao Mo's identity.
That's precisely why Lü Yan was even more surprised.
In his mind, Dragon Race were the true rulers of the ocean, a group even wealthier than the Mountain Folk.
More importantly, the Dragon Race race values offspring no less than the Mountain Folk.
Therefore, Lü Yan couldn't understand why a Dragon Race would appear in this orphanage, especially one that seemed to be injured and not yet healed. "Dragon Race? I'm not a Dragon Race!"
With a hint of resentment, Ao Mo refuted Lü Yan's statement almost without hesitation.
"And my current appearance is also natural!"
Upon hearing this, Lü Yan fell silent.
An outcast of the Dragon Race, a born deformed child...
These words flashed through Lü Yan's mind in that instant, and eventually coalesced into a look of tenderness in his eyes.
However, upon noticing the change in Lü Yan's gaze, Ao Mo's hatred instantly turned into anger.
Don't look at me like that!
"You were merely born under the protection of the Dao Ancestor by sheer luck; what right do you have to look down upon all living beings from your high position?!"
Even though he deliberately lowered his voice, Ao Mo's voice was still shrill.
"You think this isn't the world the Dao Ancestor wanted, but what have you done?!"
"You're merely enjoying the lingering blessings of the Dao Ancestor while indulging in your own melancholy and lamentations..."
"What right do people like you have to deny the reality of this world!"
Continuing to gaze silently at Ao Mo, Lü Yan's expression was slightly somber, but he did not utter a word in rebuttal.
"You Mountain Folk are descendants of the Dao Ancestor, born with strong physiques and abundant vital energy..."
"Cultivation is merely a choice for you; even without cultivation, you can still prolong your life by consuming the Peach of Immortality immortality."
"When they turn eighteen, they might even undergo the so-called 'immortality ceremony' to celebrate gaining immortality!"
"In the end, you were just lucky; you were born into a good family!"
Clenching his fists tightly, Ao Mo was less angry and more venting his emotions.
"You're right, I was just born into a good family."
Taking a deep breath, Lü Yan composed himself and stared at Ao Mo with an indifferent gaze.
"But so what?"
"If you hate me just because of this, then what's the difference between you and me?"
"Unfounded envy and jealousy are essentially no different from unfounded melancholy."
"Besides, Hanzhi and I are both trying to do something..."
Even if these things are insignificant compared to the Dao Ancestor, we are indeed taking action.
"But what about you?"
"Besides venting your emotions on someone you've only met once, have you done anything else?" Upon hearing this, Ao Mo immediately froze on the spot.
When it comes to empty talk, Lü Yan, who has completed fifteen years of compulsory education, is far superior to Ao Mo.
Among the basic courses taught by the Mountain Folk is a course specifically on thought and dialectics, and it is even based on teaching materials personally designed by the Dao Ancestor. In Xiluo's words, pure power cannot change the world in the long run.
The omnipotent Dao Ancestor in your eyes first had the idea of changing the world, and then grew to the level he is today.
Therefore, as his successors, you Mountain Folk must first possess an impeccable heart before you can possess great power. "You feel uncomfortable about your origins..."
"But do you know how many living beings don't even have a birth like yours?"
You think I'm naive and clueless about the ways of the world...
"But do you know that the fact that you can stay in this nursing home already puts you ahead of countless others?"
At this point, Lü Yan paused slightly, and his eyes softened again.
I don't know what happened to you, but I don't think you need to be so pessimistic.
"I admit that I didn't think that much about it at first, and I didn't see the other side of this world."
"But you don't have to keep staring at those harsh realities; you have to learn to look to the future and dream of a better future."
"I need to learn to bow my head, and you need to learn to raise your head; we can learn from each other."
Upon hearing Lü Yan's last sentence, Ao Mo seemed to have been suddenly stimulated, and his eyes widened as he refuted him.
"Ha! Easier said than done. Is there really that much beauty in this world?"
"Since you don't know what happened to me, don't give me your opinions!"
At this point, Ao Mo suddenly changed the subject.
"But you're right about one thing..."
"I shouldn't have taken my emotions out on you, and I shouldn't have blamed everyone and everything."
"Because doing that is pointless, I need to take action; I must take some concrete steps."
As Lü Yan watched Ao Mo's gaze gradually harden, a sense of unease began to creep into his heart.
He felt as if he had inadvertently opened Pandora's box and released a formidable monster.
Unfortunately, before Lü Yan could further investigate this ominous feeling, Ao Mo stared at him intently before turning and leaving.
"You..."
As he watched the figure disappear into the moonlight, the sword behind Lü Yan trembled slightly uncontrollably.
"What exactly is this guy here for?"
