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!
People find themselves in all sorts of awkward situations all the time. As, for example, when they wear the same outfit as someone else, it is always the uglier one who feels most embarrassed.
Xu Que had never been afraid to share outfits with anybody, as he knew that he was exceedingly handsome. However, the awkwardness of mistaking an old friend was not something he had anticipated. After all, he and Lao Cai relied on phone calls and the internet to keep in touch. They had rarely met up after they graduated from middle school.
The same could be said for Huang Cheng, who now stood before him. They weren't precisely besties from high school and had never met after they graduated. Xu Que had spent a year in college and then delved into the world of cultivation for an extremely long time. Most important, he had spent decades in the Mystery Land with Zixia Fairy.
