Chapter 79
Strolling through Night Lion City, Chui Yim felt like Southary was a joke in comparison. However, he disliked the city. The residents felt repressed, unlike Southary where everyone was carefree. There was no loud hawking from the stalls and they held up signboards instead, making the city more solemn but less lively.
In the evening, Chui Yim, Bak Wun, and Chor Shing Chit arrived at the Lion Dance Inn.
Named after a lion, this was the best inn in the city.
Bring us to your best room! The richest of the three, Chui Yim naturally didnt bother about the cost. He turned to the inns staff, speaking loudly.
The staff naturally wouldnt believe a boy like Chui Yim. He turned to Bak Wun and Chor Shing Chit for confirmation, only to see Bak Wun smiling at him. Anything he says.
Alright, sir!
Under the staffs lead, they headed for the third floor of the inn. Compared to the other floors, the third three were only occupied by one other person with the area mostly empty. The man glanced at them and continued drinking alone.
Get me two catties of the best wine, and serve all your famous dishes! Chui Yim said immediately as he sat down.
Having gotten instructions from Bak Wun previously, the staff immediately did as he was told. Alright! Just a moment, sir!
Little brother! Let me ask you: why is life so unfair! the teenager mumbled. He stood up abruptly with his cup of wine, unable to stand straight. I'm so gifted! Yet Im trapped in such a small city! Why is life so unfair!
Yes! Life is unfair! Despite not knowing what the teenager meant, Chui Yim agreed to him subconsciously while taking another mouthful of wine.
This is so unfair! the teenager said like a drunkard and pulled open his robe. I, Tse Yu Bak, aged eighteen, was born with an innate heart chamber, yet Im not even in the one-chambered state!
This is absurd! If the heavens wanted me to end up a commoner, then dont give me the innate heart chamber to begin with!
Chor Shing Chit and Bak Wun exchanged glances, lamenting silently. A gliphers life was filled with challenges; if one were unable to break through their first chamber at twelve, hed remain an ordinary glipher even if he broke through in the future. Reaching the two-chambered state would be almost impossible.
Only those with innate wind chambers could break through their first chamber late. Thus there was nothing Chui Yim and Lam Ming needed to worry about.
Being blessed with an innate heart chamber was a powerful talent. But being trapped in this state was like having heavens to play a joke on you.
Chui Yim, who was so drunk that he couldnt even see properly, looked at the teenager with his chest exposed. Brother! Youve been poisoned. Of course nothing will work no matter how hard you cultivate, he said drunkenly after drinking another big mouth of wine.
Poisoned? The teenager asked in a daze. He almost sobered up on hearing Chui Yim. What did you say?!
But when he turned around, Chui Yim had already laid down on the table, asleep and mummering in his dreams. I want more wine
