"Anyway my stand remains the same. What I want to do, is to stop this war," Su Yang claimed.
"Haha," Yang Ding burst out in laughter.
"You have some stupid dreams kid. You are going to end the war, with that measly strength of yours? I reckon you won't even be able to save a single soldier!"
Su Yang sighed.
"Yes... you are right, and that's why I hate myself for being so powerless."
"Haha," Yang Ding didn't cease to laugh.
Su Yang knitted his brows.
He seemed annoyed at Yang Ding's mockery. He had not even considered his feelings and chose to mock him instead.
'Aren't dreams called dreams because they can't be realized in the immediate present? What's so funny about making fun of it just cause it seems impossible?'
"Neither is my dream stupid and nor is it shallow. It is just that I don't have the means to accomplish it yet. Why do you not understand at all? Or is it that you pretend to not? I don't want to see people die in front of eyes, on the battlefront for stupid jealousy and animosity that never had a base," Su Yang continued, "War might bring power for those in the top but they only bring suffering to all beneath. And I don't want them to suffer. That's it… I just don't want them to suffer…" his voice trailed as his eyes got moist.
'Woah, Woah kid, don't start crying now,' Yang Ding thought but he didn't say it.
"Well, we have different ideologies indeed. In fact, it won't be wrong to call us polar opposites," Yang Ding said.
He nodded as he held his chin. That's the best way to describe the two of them.
Polar opposites.
What Su Yang thought was right and just, to Yang Ding, it was always seemed foolish, and the same went the other way round.
"Anyway, your dream will never come true. Keep dreaming your stupid dream. I am off to the wilderness to hunt for beasts," Yang Ding smirked.
"Why would you do that if you can earn much more being a doctor?"
Yang Ding shook his head.
"You would never understand me."
"I guess you are right on that part."
"Anyways, see yah," Yang Ding said as he walked away showing his waving hand, "And you might want to wash your bedsheets before using them."
Yang Ding left the clan, leaving Su Yang alone.
"My wishes will never come true huh?… We will see about that."
*****
Wei Zhu ran off back to her chambers. A maid noticed that and informed her father.
Wei Xue left what he was doing and came running at once. The event that might have taken place… Whether she was able to persuade him or not, it has all been weighing on his mind.
If Yang Ding is on his side then they will have a better chance to win. The clan's medic cannot even compare to Yang Ding.
*shoosh*
The door open as the air pushed behind making a shrill and unnoticeable sound.
Wei Xue's eyes fell on his daughter. She was sleeping on her bed with her face buried on her pillow.
*cough*
Wei Zhu, alerted of his presence, jolted as she turned around.
"Father! When did you come? How many times do I have to tell you to knock!"
Wei Zhu's annoyance was obvious. She had a lack of privacy and couldn't even masturbate in her own chambers without locking the door.
"It didn't go well, did it?"
"Sadly, no. He is not something I can handle."
Wei Zhu had so many experiences in the past that she can easily figure out which men are easy and which are hard to get a hold of.
Wei Xue looked a bit disappointed.
"Ah, I suspected as much. Alright, the question is what should I do now…"
"Hmm," Wei Xue was lost in thought.
"Why don't you just force him? I checked properly… he is just at the 4th stage of the Ice profound Realm."
Wei Xue shook his head.
"No, we can't do that. His strength was never a problem for me. What I fear are his backers. Think of it from a different point of view. He is a miraculous doctor. Just think of how many lives he has saved. Just how many powerhouses are indebted to him and waiting to repay his favors," Wei Xue continued, "We can't mess with him in times of war. All we can do is use words to turn him to our side."
"I see. You aren't wrong. I don't know how great a doctor he is, but if he really is what you make him be then he must be really hard to deal with."
"Looks like I will have to negotiate with him personally," Wei Xue held his chin.
"But father, to me he didn't seemed a doctor at all!"
Wei Xue knitted his brows.
"What do you mean?"
"His aura. The way we cultivated together, he seemed like a sleeping beast waiting to tear apart his prey rather than some kind and generous miraculous doctor."
Wei Xue nodded.
"I also felt that way when I first met with him. Seriously, he is a tough nut to crack!"
*****
Yang Ding kept slaying those imps, one after the other.
*slash*
Purple-colored blood spurted as he dismantled their body. His hands had died in a purple hue.
[Exp received: 35 points]
"Sigh"
"This ain't enough."
"System"

"The Exp is barely increasing killing these imp-type monsters. Maybe I should stop messing with them."
It was then…
"Roar!"
An Ice Bear appeared!
Yes, it was the same ice beast that had reduced Yang Ding to a cripple before.
These beasts have a habit of getting attracted to the Purple Imps' blood.
It works as a drug to attract them.
But does Yang Ding need to know these things anymore?
"Haha, good thing you appeared. I have old scores to settle," Yang Ding's lips arched into a devilish smile.
"Rooaar.."
It went on all fours and with a leap, it started running towards Yang Ding.
It came in to headbutt Yang Ding, bearing a great deal of momentum.
*Boom*
