I, the mortal, come from the great world of Xuanhuang

After the resource boss lady had her fill, Fang Yu left quietly. He left nothing but letters for a few important people; he simply vanished without a trace because he knew he'd be driven crazy by the annoyance if he didn't leave soon. Although Fang Yu knew those guys wouldn't dare to act rashly, he didn't want to be bothered any longer. So, he decided to leave quickly and not stay any longer.

But when Fang Yu left the prefecture, he discovered, or rather realized, a problem: if he left just like that, wouldn't that satisfy the wishes of those old fogies? Just by letting him leave his underlings' side, wouldn't that fulfill their desires? Thinking of this, Fang Yu immediately returned the way he came.

"Young master, why are you back again?" The proprietress was surprised to see Fang Yu return by the same route. She hadn't expected him to come back, and he seemed quite happy about it.

"It's nothing. I just feel that I shouldn't leave. If I leave, those guys will definitely be very happy. So why should I leave, right? Since they're so happy, I'll be happy with them, right? So naturally, I can't leave anymore. If I leave, it will only make them happier and feel that they've achieved their goal. Under such circumstances, how can I allow them to be happy? They've almost driven me crazy by working together. If I just leave like this, it will completely satisfy their wishes."

"I'm neither a saint nor a saint, so how could I possibly grant their wishes? They're trying every possible way to kill me. If I grant their wishes, wouldn't that mean I've lost my mind? That's impossible. If I had lost my mind, I would leave. But obviously, I haven't lost my mind yet, so I can't leave. I absolutely cannot leave. If I leave, I'll be granting those old geezers' wishes, which is absolutely unacceptable. Those old geezers, trying to make me leave this way, are simply delusional. Do they really think I'm afraid of them?"

"In short, no matter what, I absolutely cannot help those old fogies fulfill their wishes. I absolutely cannot. I'm going to teach those old fogies a lesson, I'm going to shatter all their plans and arrangements. I want to see how they plan to deal with me, how they plan to punish me. I want to see what they're capable of. If they can't even do that, then what's the point of my life? I should have died long ago. Besides, they can't do anything to me, they absolutely can't deal with me. Under these circumstances, I can't let them have their way. You know, this time when I left, they almost got their wish. They thought they could annoy me to death. What a pipe dream, utterly a pipe dream! How could that be possible? In short, no matter what, this time I absolutely cannot leave again." "If I leave now, I'll have completely satisfied their wishes. If things continue like this, wouldn't I have come all this way for nothing? So, no matter what, I can't fulfill their wishes, nor can I let them continue to be so rampant. I know exactly what they're going to do next, and since I know it, I absolutely won't let them have their way. They think they can deal with me this way? They're just delusional, dreaming. So this time, I won't leave no matter what. I won't leave until I've completely thwarted their plans, their arrangements, their schemes and plots. If I leave now, I'll be asking for trouble, courting death. Since that's the case, I'm not stupid; why would I leave, right?"

"But young master, didn't you already tell your people that you were leaving? If you come back like this, won't they be very surprised?"

The proprietress reminded her again.

"Let them be surprised. These things don't really matter. Surprise is surprise. My return is a good thing for them. After all, my return can prevent many tragedies from happening. Under these circumstances, they should be happy, and they must be happy. If they are not happy, then I will not be happy either. I will deal with them and make them do what I plan happily. I will arrange a bright and beautiful future for them so that they can spend their lives in happiness. This is what I should do. And those things I shouldn't do, especially I shouldn't leave. I absolutely cannot leave. Leaving will only make those old geezers happy. Those old geezers wanting to be happy is just a joke."

"Since we've already pretty much broken off relations, if I let them have their way, all my previous efforts would be wasted. I'm not stupid; how could I possibly leave so easily, just because of a few words from them? Absolutely impossible. In short, this time I'm back, and I won't leave easily. Whatever they want to do, I'll sabotage it. I absolutely won't let them have their way. Letting them have their way, making them happy, would only make me unhappy. So, no matter what, I absolutely will not let them be happy. If they are happy, then all my previous efforts, all my arrangements, all my preparations, would be for nothing. Just because they're annoyed with me... Sigh, to be honest, I'm stupid. I didn't even notice their conspiracy, their plans. Since they want me to leave, then I won't leave. I want to see what they can do to me. Can they kill me, or make me die without a burial place?"

"Anyway, they can't kill me, they can't do anything to me. Under these circumstances, how could I possibly leave according to their orders or their ideas? It's absolutely impossible."

"Alright, you don't need to worry about anything anymore. I'll handle this. I absolutely won't cause any problems. Any problems would be an insult to me. This time, I really fell for their trick. They were just trying to force me to leave this way, but I'm not leaving. I want to see what they're up to."

"I'm not leaving this time no matter what. They think they can make me leave? A bunch of old geezers, they think they can make me leave? They're delusional. It's completely impossible, absolutely impossible. If there were even the slightest possibility, I would never leave. Leaving would be a complete humiliation. As long as I'm alive, I won't fall for these old bastards' tricks. Last time was a misunderstanding, I must have been out of my mind. I admit I was definitely out of my mind last time, otherwise, how could I have left so easily and fallen for their tricks?"

“This time, I’m not leaving, even if it kills me. I want to see what they can do to me, what they can do to me—kill me, eat me, or even kill me.” “Young Master, don’t be angry, don’t be angry. There’s no need to get angry over something like this. We were only gone for a short while, and we’re back now, aren’t we? So there’s no need to be so angry, really no need. If we’re this angry, wouldn’t that just make those guys happy? Because we really don’t need to make them happy, absolutely no need to make them happy, and no need to be angry, right? We’re back, we’re doing what we should do. There’s absolutely no need to let them be smug, to make them happy. That’s an insult to us, isn’t it?”

Seeing Fang Yu rambling on and on, his tone full of anger, the proprietress quickly tried to comfort him. She could tell that Fang Yu was in a very bad mood, so she had to say something to comfort him.

"You're right. We're not leaving now. We want to see what they're up to. Those old fogies can't do anything to me anyway. Since they can't do anything to me, I won't let them have their way. And even if they could, they wouldn't let me have my way. In short, I know what they want to do, and I understand. But achieving their goal is a joke, pure wishful thinking, utterly impossible. I will absolutely not allow them to succeed. If they do..." If that's their goal, then everything I've done over the years has been for nothing? All that effort has come to nothing, just like they wanted—they just left like that? They're probably laughing at me behind my back, laughing at me for being a fool, for falling for such a simple trick. I'm sure they're humiliating me right now. Even if they keep humiliating me, keep arguing with me, I absolutely will not leave. If I leave, I'd be out of my mind. No matter what, I will not leave. This was a misunderstanding, this was an accident, but next time it won't be like this. It will absolutely not happen a second time. If something like this happens a second time, it would prove I'm a complete idiot, but that's obviously impossible. How could I be a fool? I could never be a fool. There's absolutely no possibility of this happening, absolutely no way. Anyway, no matter what they say, I will absolutely not allow this to happen. I want to see what other tricks they have up their sleeves, what other methods they have to force me to leave. Do they really think they can force me to leave with these kinds of tricks and methods? They're seriously underestimating me, and they're seriously overestimating themselves. This will only happen once at most, and it will definitely not happen again next time. If it does happen next time, then I really will be a fool. Anyway, the same thing will not happen a second time. I know what they're up to, and I will absolutely not fall for it a second time. Falling for it a second time is absolutely impossible. If it happens again, I'll really be laughed to death by them. How could such a thing be allowed to happen a second time? Don't you think that makes sense?

Fang Yu asked the proprietress so anxiously that she could only nod obediently and say:
"You're right, you're right, you're absolutely right."

"See? You said I was right. So what I said must be right. And those idiots will never get rid of me again. They were slightly stronger this time, but in reality, their idea of ​​dealing with me again is just wishful thinking. It's simply impossible."

Fang Yu's words made the proprietress nod:
"You're right, you're absolutely right. That's right, we absolutely cannot let them get away with this, we absolutely cannot let them get away with this."

“That’s right, we absolutely cannot let them get away with it. If we do, it will be an insult to us. Young master, we won’t leave this time, right?”

“That’s right, I will not leave this time no matter what. How could I possibly leave again? If I left again, wouldn’t that make me a fool? That’s absolutely impossible.”

Fang Yu sounded rather exasperated. You could say that Fang Yu's words left the landlady somewhat helpless. She felt that he was just a child who had been tricked and was throwing a tantrum, but she couldn't say that out loud. So she could only try her best to comfort him and comply with his wishes.

Besides this, the proprietress had no other choice, and in this situation, she was somewhat helpless.

"Alright, I have to go back now. If I don't, those old geezers will be even happier, so I have to go back. If I don't go back, who knows what other tricks they'll use. Anyway, I was tricked this time, but I will never be tricked again. If I were to be tricked again, it would be suicide. This will never happen again, absolutely never, not even once." (End of Chapter)
