The Great Freedom Celestial Demon glanced at Zhang Chen upon hearing his words, with a touch of helplessness in his eyes: "Boy, you seem to be dreaming. Those old beings have undergone millennial tempering, besides life and death and higher realms, what else can move them? Moreover, their state of mind has been weathered for thousands of years, long tranquil like the dead water of a cold pond; trying to stir their hearts is simply impossible."
Zhang Chen looked disappointed upon hearing this, as it was indeed hard to stir the hearts of those tough old beings.
"This world is dangerous; I should lay low quietly." Zhang Chen silently reminded himself to stay hidden, not to stand out, then stretched his muscles in the courtyard and ordered a servant to bring tea. He lay on the rocking chair in the courtyard, drinking tea while quietly listening to the happenings in Jinling City, gathering the city's news.
