Around the city of Tianxingcheng, a mortal family opened a well-known restaurant.

Because of the novelty of the dishes and unique decoration, it attracted many guests, many of which were generous cultivators, and this family made a fortune.

Today, there were two people sitting near the window on the second floor of the restaurant.

One person is full of spirit and handsome. The other person has a face that looks like a peach blossom, and it is difficult to tell the difference between male and female.

In this almost crowded restaurant, the two of them sat alone on the side, both seemingly out of place with the surroundings, and seemingly completely integrated into the room, and there is no difference between them.

"What are you asking me for today? I'm a chess friend and came over without even playing chess. You'd better have a serious business."

Lu Yunze said in a speechless manner while lying on the quick-speaking line.

"You swallow the things in your mouth first before talking." Ling Yuling pressed his eyebrows with some headache.

"Oh." Lu Yunze raised his neck and swallowed everything in his mouth.

Ling Yuling's eyelids twitched, and he simply lost his eyes and stuffed him a storage bag with his eyes closed.

"The books you sold in Baiyulou back then sold well. These are your share, please click on them yourself."

When Lu Yunze heard this, he became energetic immediately and quickly inserted his spiritual sense into the storage bag. Looking at the tens of thousands of spirit stones inside, he was so happy that he smiled.

"It seems that I still have some writing talent." Lu Yunze touched his chin and said proudly.

Ling Yuling rolled his eyes and was embarrassed to tell him that the people who bought books were all aimed at the practical information in the books, and no one cared about how he wrote it.

"Thank you, I'll treat this table today." Lu Yunze was in a good mood and put the storage bag in his arms casually and said carelessly.

Ling Yuling sighed lightly, took out a jade slip from the storage bag and handed it to him.

"The information about Xutian Ding and Qianlan Ice and Fire is here. To be honest, even Xinggong doesn't know much about these two things, but they only know that they seem to be related to the upper realm."

Lu Yunze took the jade slip and put it casually into the storage bag.

"Thank you."

Seeing his casual look, Ling Yuling immediately shook his head with a bitter smile.

"You're so straightforward to answer, so you won't worry about what I want you to do one day in the future. Can't you refuse?"

Lu Yunze raised his head and looked at him in confusion.

"Why should I refuse? Just say no if you want to do anything?"

Ling Yuling opened her mouth, raised her beautiful eyebrows gently, and then quickly put them down, showing a somewhat confused look.

"You too..." Ling Yuling didn't know what to say, but just shook his head and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're not worried. I'm getting close to you because I have other intentions? You're at least a little cautious."

Lu Yunze looked at him blankly and said, "Are you okay?"

Ling Yuling smiled bitterly and said nothing.

After a while, Lu Yunze heard him and said in an extremely calm voice: "Sometimes, I really envy you. I live so freely and different from everyone."

Ling Yuling leaned on the back of the chair and turned his head slightly to look at the crowd outside the window.

"Since I was a child, someone taught me a saying that if you want to ask for it, you must give it first. If someone treats me well for no reason, it must be because he will ask me for it. On the other hand, the same is true. If I think someone may have something to use in the future, then give me favors first, and when it needs to be used in the future, let him work hard for me."

"This is the world, everything is just a transaction. It is cold and selfish. There is only use and being used between people, and nothing else exists."

Lu Yunze blinked, looked at the ribs on Kuaizi, hesitated for a moment, and put them in his mouth.

"Do you think this is right?" Lu Yunze asked while chewing the ribs.

Ling Yuling was silent and looked at the holy mountain above his head, which was like a sky-raising holy mountain.

"In the past, I once worshipped him like a god. I think everything he said is right. After all, regardless of power or cultivation, he is undoubtedly the top in this world, but now..."

Ling Yuling smiled bitterly, "I don't know anymore."

"That's how..." Lu Yunze was still eating, and seemed to have not taken this matter to heart.

"How do you say it? The person you are talking about... feels very pitiful."

"What?!" Ling Yuling suddenly widened his eyes and almost jumped up from the chair.

He looked at Lu Yunze in shock, and looked at him as if he had known him the first day.

"You say he is pitiful? Do you know who he is? Just say he is pitiful!"

Lu Yunze spread his hands together, looking annoying scoundrel.

"I don't know who he is, but that doesn't prevent me from feeling pitiful."

Lu Yunze said, looking out the window.

On the street below, a teenager was holding another young girl and following closely behind a middle-aged man.

The man held the boy's hand, took out a few brand new copper coins from his arms with the other hand, and bought two candy men for the two children from the hands of the vendor on the street.

The two children took it in surprise and licked it carefully, fearing that they would eat too quickly.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yunze's mouth, and he said without looking back: "This world is so colorful, but he can only see one side of it. Isn't this pitiful?"

Ling Yuling was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time.

Seeing his appearance, Lu Yunze couldn't help laughing.

"A long time ago, I read a book. The author of the book believes that there is no distinction between good and evil, good and bad in the world. Only people have. The difference between people creates different environments, and indirectly creates different people."

"I think he is very reasonable. People influence the environment, but they are ultimately affected by the environment. If you indulge yourself and let bad environment erode affect yourself, and go with the flow like a dead tree without any opinion. Then this person is just repeating stories that have happened countless times, without any meaning or value."

"On the other hand, if you choose not to be affected by the environment or even to influence the people around you, then this kind of life must be meaningful, even if it only changes a little bit, it will be meaningful."

Lu Yunze smiled, with arrogance and loneliness that cannot be tolerated by the world.

"I live, I think, I never compromise, so every day I live is valuable and meaningful."

Lu Yunze reached out his hand and patted Ling Yuling on the shoulder, making him come back to his senses from the shock.

"Let's think about it, why do you make yourself live like an old man? If you don't enjoy it, it's a sin."
