"What do you plan to do next?"
"Cold mix, the usual way, watch as I mix, what else can I do?"

Lu Ping'an had become quite self-aware. Along his journey, while he had gained some renown, he had also made quite a few enemies.
The companies from Aus, the people from the Blood Feast, the followers of the Mother Goddess cult, these were basically situations where one side must die.
And the battles along the way could create enemies he didn't even remember; for example, his journey in the Abyss had sown the seeds of karma. It would be utterly normal if an Abyss assassin or an Abyss lord decided to settle scores with him, or claimed they wanted revenge for Didirona.
And then there was that Foreign Domain octopus Evil God who marked him. God knows what rank that being was; anyhow, the mark on Lu Ping'an's body showed no signs of fading to this very day.
