Zi Yang smiled in satisfaction as he collected the contracts back into his body, Yuyan gave him a dirty look and he chuckled “Sister-in-law, listen…” he pointed at Huo Gang and continued “Your husband isn’t too smart, what if he accidentally reveals my plans? Wouldn’t we be fucked?”

He shook his head as if to say ‘without me, he’s useless’ Yuyan looked at Huo Gang, who was about to burst, and giggled.

Naturally the contracts she and Huo Gang received were better than the other but still quite severe.

Zi Yang had a policy, betrayal didn’t exist, there was only Death.

Before they could betray him they would die, it was very simple. He wasn’t like these silly little Main Characters! Going around trusting everyone left, right, and center!

Fools!

Especially the ones who remain low-key!

Hurr Hurr look at me, I’m trash hehe~

Idiot! What’s the point of reincarnating? Go die somewhere else bro.

For Zi Yang, he was quite special! Obviously, he reincarnated into a crippled old man who was the leader of a clan, instead of some young hero, who was ready to take on the world.

But this didn’t bother him, in fact he was more than happy to have it be this way!

Besides… The pressure of being the Patriarch and having everyone at your throat made him feel excited!

Yes!

Zi Yang was such a mental person!

If he didn’t feel constant danger, he would get bored.

Perhaps this was a side effect of being mentally tortured by Sun Tao for all those years, but he felt that if there wasn’t a knife around his neck, he couldn’t sleep peacefully as if something was missing.

What a crazy person!

Though, there were benefits to this! Zi Yang could perform past his peak under pressure! He thrived in dangerous situations, but…

It was unknown if it was because of his soul fusion or something to do with the system but he had an instinctive impulse for chaos! He often wanted to jump head first into danger!

If Zi Yang didn’t know any better, he would think he was suicidal again!

But you only kill yourself once after all! How could he bear to do it again?

Anyway, he wasn’t going to die again, that’s for sure!

I mean… What if he became a frog in his next life?! That would suck big time!

After discussing with Yuyang and Huo Gang for a few more minutes, he left their office in a good mood.

He still had a headache but it was slightly alleviated.

In reality, he was just distracted, but this didn’t matter too much.

Zi Yang came back to the great hall to see Huo Mei arguing with Zi Tian…

Or rather Zi Tian ignoring her as she yelled in his face.

“Why are you such a wooden board?! Why can’t you have fun?! You’re so handsome but you act like an old man! This is why I don’t like you! Can’t you just be normal? Are you trying to pretend to be an immortal!?”

Zi Yang chuckled and wheeled over, he stroked a beard he didn’t have and nodded with a sage-like expression “Yes, child. What this mortal young lady says is correct, your temperament needs polishing. Upon our arrival to the Sect, we shall go into secluded cultivation for 500 years. An Immortal needs to be refined and refined.”

He stroked his beard and hummed, nodding as he spoke.

Zi Tian’s lips twitched and Huo Mei looked at Zi Yang before exploding “Are you making fun of me!?” Zi Yang froze and looked at her before getting serious and replying “Yes.” Huo Mei trembled and jumped at him, hissing like a cat.

Zi Tian held her back and she clawed in the air, as though she was fighting 18 trillion Gods, Demons, and Immortals. He sighed and looked at Zi Yang, who was laughing and pointing at Huo Mei, before shaking his head with a bitter smile.

His father was just too much.

It seemed like he offended people on purpose.

Zi Yang really did do this, it was fun to watch as these polite people broke their dumb speech habits and explode with anger.

He turned to Zi Tian and smiled “Let’s go see the shop, I’m still quite curious.” Zi Tian looked at Huo Mei before tilting his head, Zi Yang nodded and said “Watch this.” he reached his hand out and pinched Huo Mei’s nose before pulling back and putting his thumb in between his index finger and middle finger as he said “Look! I got your nose!”

Huo Mei was dumbfounded and instantly lost her anger.

Zi Tian was thinking about if there were any huge cliffs around Purple Flower town… Maybe he could jump off and try again in his next life?

Huo Mei pointed at Zi Yang with her mouth wide open, unable to say anything.

Zi Yang wiggled his thumb and then bit on it before swallowing and grinning with his hands to the side as he said “Ah. Too late!” Huo Mei trembled and held her stomach before bursting out laughing, she fell over and started crying from it.

She took in a deep breath and laughed, managing to squeeze out “That was so dumb! You’re an idiot! Hahahahaha!” Zi Yang chuckled and wheelde away, saying “Let’s go, son.” Zi Tian stepped over Huo Mei and looked at his father curiously.

It seemed…

He got rid of Huo Mei for today?

Incredible!

He caught up with Zi Yang and pushed him out of the Huo Clan quickly, fearing Huo Mei would stop laughing and follow them. It seemed it was unnecessary as he could hear her laughter from down the street.

Zi Yang hummed to himself and looked around at the people, hearing their words and speech patterns. It was so polite and respectful!

It was kinda pissing him off!

He muttered “These people are clowns…”

Klink responded [You’re a clown too.] Zi Yang rolled his eyes and replied in his mind “Hello again.” Klink replied [You’re right though, it is a bit annoying.] Zi Yang remembered something and asked “Why is it that all these MCs that get reincarnated start speaking like that too? It can’t be that I’m the only one who doesn’t like it!”

Klink spoke [Basically, they’re weak individuals. They follow the flow of the world and think they actually belong there. It happens because they have weak personalities to begin with… Imagine, even when they go back to Earth they still talk like that! Haha! What a bunch of losers!]

Zi Yang chuckled, remembering an instance as he asked again “Are the novels I read in my last life real?” Klink hummed [Difficult question. Yes and no. As soon as they are thought of, they exist and are created! But, at the same time, they aren’t. In a way, they both exist and don’t exist at the same time.]

Zi Yang was confused, he didn’t understand. If they existed, they exist, no? How can you exist but not exist? Are you a ghost? Even ghosts exist though… Klink cut off his thoughts, adding [Anyway, you wouldn’t understand so just don’t ask about these things. Who are you to know? Who cares anyway?]

Zi Yang hummed “I guess so…” and stopped the conversation there as Zi Tian said “We’re here, Dad.” Zi Yang came back to reality and looked up at the sign that read ‘Zi Clan Medicine Hall’ he scratched his head and asked “Who named this? It really sucks!”

Zi Tian looked awkward and coughed, replying “You did.”

Zi Yang’s face instantly turned black.
