I am the best when it comes to taking divergent paths. With just a flip of my hand, I shall take the path less commonly travelled. I search far and wide, only to find myself unbeatable and unrivaled. So now I ask, who else can match my awesomeness? Acting tough is second nature to me and I am a lone wolf. The road is long and winding but I shan’t feel lonely as long as I am able to act tough! Life and death bore me and I do whatever I deem fit. “Young man, way back when I started acting tough, you were still learning how to put on your underpants!” Xu Que thus decided to take the path of acting tough. He decided to act tough every single god-damned day. If he wasn’t acting tough, he was scheming for the best way to act tough!
That day, Situ Hai Tang made some arrangements for Xu Que, Shang Ling, and his old peers to sit down together and enjoy tea.
Shang Ling had also asked Shang Wu to join the crowd and severely criticized him in front of Xu Que.
Shang Wu felt rather upset and dared not to contradict his father, since his father had warned him that if he dared to speak one more word, he would cancel his engagement with Situ Hai Tang.
That was why he had "willingly" accepted all the reprimanding.
Shang Wu looked at Xu Que from time to time and secretly sneered.
…
Before he joined the crowd, Shang Wu had already been told by someone he absolutely trusted that his message had been delivered to the Gong Family overseas. He had spent hundreds of Spiritual Stones of top quality on this.
