"The pursuit of immortality is too far-fetched for us; we should enjoy the present and not let power become our master... In small places like ours, if it weren't for those rebel organizations causing trouble, there wouldn't be such fear and trepidation."
Brother Kui shook his head, expressing some complaints about the troubled waters of the current situation.
"You arrived late, so you don't know. A few years ago, though Da Peng City would have major cases, it wasn't as chaotic as it is now... It's a mess, but as long as you keep your head down, even if the sky falls, it has nothing to do with us."
Pei Jinye laughed, "Brother Kui, what you said just now resonates with me. Not letting power become our master, the only reason I grew stronger was purely for self-protection."
Brother Kui looked at him upon hearing this.
He didn't refute.
Instead, he sighed.
"It's always been like this world; if you don't become one above others, then you're just a lamb on the chopping board."
