Chapter 718  A beautiful friendship

"Hmm? Where\'s Boss? I thought we\'re all going to return together…", Kwon Qianhong looked around with a surprised expression, just voicing his thoughts out loud, realizing that Wu Long was not around.

Zhao Xieren and General Feng who overheard him, looked at each other with knowing eyes, and started laughing.

"There\'s more to this world than money, young one", Zhao Xieren noted amid laughter.

"Hahaha, if you don\'t learn how to be considerate in certain situations and know when to disappear, you might land into trouble, Qian", General Feng also laughed with his loud, booming voice.

"Haa~", Kwon Qianhong\'s response was a rather lackluster nod, as he still had no idea what the two talked about, which only made them laugh harder. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

\'Were these two always so lively?\', he wondered, since both were people that were hard for people to approach because of their seniority in age, both outward and in reality, high positions within the Sect, and the impression they gave off.

It was easy to forget for Wu Long or those close to him, who saw them in a different light, but from the perspective of most Sect members, they seemed like those dignified, unapproachable and fierce Elders with stern expressions. Their gazes felt heavy and oppressive, adding to the authoritative air they had about them.

While Kwon Qianhong was relatively in the inner circle of Wu Long\'s subordinates, he was still quite new, and since he had to catch up to everyone, did not have much time to interact with anyone, focused on training and raising his cultivation.

Now that he reached Core Reformation Realm with phenomenal speed due to the unexpectedly uncovered talent for Equilibrium Dao Cultivation, it was the first time he barely qualified to participate in the Sect\'s work.

"Hah, so you\'ve returned", Nie Guanting\'s towering figure blocked the sunlight. "Ah, yeah, it wasn\'t supposed to be a long mission", Kwon Qianhong chuckled with a slightly awkward expression.

\'Haha~, seeing his expression, he\'s a bit disgruntled… it makes sense that he is unsatisfied though, since I was allowed to go and he wasn\'t, even though his cultivation is higher\', he thought with a sympathetic sentiment, \'But still, I can\'t believe this big guy\'s already in 3rd level Mortal Transcendence Realm while I barely reached the gate of Core Reformation… and they called my growth monstrous… of course, our starting points were different too, but the techniques Boss gave this guy must\'ve really suited him\'

"Come now, don\'t frown like that, you\'ll get wrinkles", he then chuckled with a bright demeanor and friendly pats on Nie Guanting\'s forearm, since struggling to reaching up high for the shoulder was a bit too awkward for this lighthearted kind of gesture.

"Why would I care about wrinkles?", Nie Guanting\'s eyebrows went up with a puzzled expression.

"I\'m just saying that there\'s no need to be discouraged. The only reason Boss allowed me to come out was because I wouldn\'t get caught as being from the Boundless Mortal World", Kwon Qianhong lightly waved his hand from side to side.

"I don\'t get that part, you haven\'t advanced to Seven Profound Realms the same as me, how is it that it\'s obvious that I\'m from there and it\'s not the same for you?", Nie Guanting crossed his arms.

 "It turns out Dao Cultivation is a bit special, since I achieved the greatest breakthrough in my understanding of the Dao just recently, here in the Boundless Profound World, the majority of my current cultivation consists of the Spiritual Qi of this world apparently…", Kwon Qianhong shrugged his shoulders, since that wasn\'t something he fully understood either, just giving him the same explanation he received from the Luo Family of the Divine Enlightenment Palace that he was learning Dao Cultivation from.

"But most of the warriors from the War God Palace under General Feng, and the majority of monks of the Brilliant Sun Temple aren\'t Dao Cultivators… and they\'re also still in Nine Mortal Realms…", Nie Guanting grumbled which sounded more like sulking than actual disgruntlement.

"Ah~ that?", Kwon Qianhong scratched the back of his head with a bit of uncertainty, but feeling bad for the guy decided to cheer him up, "Well, I don\'t know all the details either… the fight they took part in was already after the area was secured, so in truth you would have been able to participate since no one was there… I don\'t know everything Boss thinks, but he usually has a reason for everything he does, if he told you to not show up yet, it\'s likely he has other plans for you. You trust him right?"

"Yeah, I trust him. And it\'s not like I\'m complaining. I just thought I\'ll finally be able to show some results…", Nie Guanting nodded. After all, he knew that Wu Long didn\'t just keep around people who were mooching off of him. So to keep receiving his care as his subordinate, he had to prove his worth. And after receiving a taste of what Wu Long could give as a leader, there was no way he was willing to turn into someone forgotten, who had no value.

In truth, Kwon Qianhong did genuinely want to support and cheer for this guy, since they started working under Wu Long at roughly the same time, and thus shared a bit of a friendship. But at the same time, he was worried about the answer to that question, since he didn\'t want to constantly be wary of a coworker and ally who wasn\'t fully loyal to the one they followed. After all, Kwon Qianhong\'s allegiance was now firmly with Wu Long.

Which was why he was relieved at Nie Guanting\'s response, since the latter spoke without even a moment of hesitation, and his answer was firm, not leaving even a shadow of a doubt. In fact, Nie Guanting\'s "Yeah, I trust him", was spoken in a tone that could be interpreted as "Do you even need to ask that?", stating that as established truth.

"Haha, same here, brother. I also want to show results. But I didn\'t do much this time either, I guess he just wanted to see if the direction I\'m moving in is right or not. In fact, looking at it this way, Boss might have more faith in your path being right for you than me", Kwon Qianhong chuckled, since he was eager to show his worth as well.

After all, no one in the Eternal Duality Valley was under an illusion of Wu Long being a pushover who could be taken advantage of. He might be endlessly generous toward his women without expecting anything back, but that was not the same for everyone else. So apart from his Dao Family and their close ones, every single person had to work hard to be acknowledged, and thus receive the benefits of following him.

It wasn\'t apparent in the beginning, but as time went, those who did produce results in training or had displayed promise, were given new techniques and guidance passed through the one person everyone in the Sect now was at least aware of, Butler Bang.

While being quiet and diligent in his work, that old man held a tremendous influence because he was the one subordinate Wu Long held close by at all times, and at the same time, he only ever acted as Wu Long\'s eyes and hands.

Thus, while Kwon Qianhong spoke in a light tone of voice, it wasn\'t like the thought that he just voiced was something he came up on the spot, but something he was a bit worried about.

"B-Brother?", but an unexpected response came from the giant Kwon Qianhong so lightheartedly spoke to.

"Hm?", he turned to Nie Guanting with surprise since the latter\'s voice sounded a bit different.

\'Eh? W-why is he staring at me like that?\', a slight suspicion started crawling in the corner of his mind as he saw the expression on the face of Nie Guanting.

"Hahaha! Good! Very good! I thought we got along as good friends, but if you say so, I accept! Come, let\'s hug to commemorate this fine friendship, good brother!!!", the big guy suddenly hugged Kwon Qianhong.

"Kheh!!!", the latter felt like he was crushed by boulders from all sides, gasping for air, "Y-yeah! Good! Ugh! Very good indeed! I-I\'m happy as well!"

He hurriedly tapped the one crushing him on the back of his shoulder while trying to remember how it felt to breathe.

"Haha! Come, brother, let\'s go have a drink!!!", but as soon as he was set free, the giant man\'s arm wove around his neck, and he was practically dragged away by his enthusiastic new brother.

"Hahaha! A beautiful friendship!", Kwon Qianhong heard General Feng\'s voice behind him.

"Mm! Indeed! Such friendships are only made when one\'s young and hot-blooded! Hehehe! Oh, did I tell you when I was young…", Zhao Xieren\'s reply also reached his ears before fading into the background as the two likely went the opposite way.

\'T-those two have no idea what they\'re talking about! I feel like my head\'s going to be torn off any minute now!\' he inwardly grumbled, but despite all his expressed discomfort, he couldn\'t hide a subtle smile that lifted the corners of his lips.
