After Fishing For 10 Years, I Became A Saint Without Knowing How To Raise Beasts

304 Adrian (Part 2)

“Thank you for coming to Sky City.”

“Please follow me.”

Yuchi brought Hanjiang to Sky City, which was just as the rumors had described. It was a city floating on top of the clouds, which made it seem magical and mysterious.

There were many different races in Sky City, all of which looked ferocious. Despite how much it sounded or looked like a paradise, it was not.

Yuchi and Yue Hanjiang’s arrival had already attracted the attention of many people because the City Lord had actually come out to receive them personally.

Such a thing had never happened before.

Still, they did not dare to create a commotion, and merely signaled each other with their eyes?

Why would the City Lord come out to welcome an unfamiliar young man and child?

The City Lord of Sky City was someone that even the chiefs of the Tiandu division had to respect.

Furthermore, the City Lord was usually resting and recovering in the palace.

The expression on Adrian’s face was rather calm, and he gave Yuchi a brief tour and introduction of Sky City’s landmarks.

Along the way, he also gave Yuchi a simple introduction of some of the landmark buildings in Sky City.

The aqueduct system…

The various ports around the city…

And the seven crystal towers, which represented the seven elements in the world according to the constellation race, which were ground, rock, forest, sea, sky, darkness and light.

Of course, there were many other eye-catching things in Sky City, but the ports were the most bustling. Standing at the edge of these ports and looking down, one could see the clouds below.

Adrian brought Yuchi to an ordinary small house, and gently closed the door behind him.

Inside, he served Yuchi a drink made from a special plant, similar to tea.

Yue Hanjiang stayed quietly by Yuchi’s side, looking at all the new and fascinating things around her.

Adrian finally got around to asking Yuchi a question. He asked him the same question he had asked his master earlier.

“Do you think that the current world is the world we wish for?”

It was a philosophical question, but Yuchi just answered it simply.

“I don’t know if this world is the world we want, but I don’t have the ability to change it for the time being. Still, I do know that we were born here for a reason. Otherwise, we wouldn’t exist in this world.”

Adrian fell silent.

Yuchi’s explanation was very simple, but also contained his own insights into existence.

Looking at the world from an individual’s point of view, one would always see things pessimistically. However, thinking about it from another point of view, it seemed that they were really created intentionally by the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao pursued constant evolution, so the fact that they existed today meant that they were at the pinnacle of that chain.

Yuchi could clearly see Adrian’s internal struggle, so he smiled and said, “It’s just my own personal point of view.”

“No one can really say what the Heavenly Dao is like since we can neither see it nor comprehend it.”

“Still, rationally speaking, if we look at the world pessimistically, we’ll always be consumed by our own limitations and weaknesses.”

“Is there any reason to obsess over this question?”

“Does it matter if the world isn’t what we wish or hope for?”

“Will anything change because of this?”

Yuchi was not a philosophical person, and just said whatever came to mind. In any case, it would not affect his life, and he would likely forget it tomorrow anyway.

In contrast to the pointless question, Yuchi was concerned about another matter.

“Why are you so hung up on this child?”

“Even if you do obtain the Dao heart from this child’s body, what would you do next?”

Adrian had already briefly explained the deal between him and Guishen on the way here.

Guishen was to bring Yue Hanjiang back to Sky City, after which they would use a special formation to kill her and obtain her Dao heart.

Then, they would compete fairly for it.

“You should be able to tell that I’m not afraid of death,” Adrian said directly.

“Once I have the Dao heart, I’ll continue to cultivate step by step until I come before the Heavenly Dao one day. Then, I’ll take a good look at what the Heavenly Dao is like. At that point, I might destroy it, or it might destroy me.”

Yuchi suddenly laughed.

While Adrian was still puzzled, Yuchi shook his head and sighed.

“It still goes back to whatIi said before.”

“The reason why you exist in this world and even have such thoughts now is essentially something the Heavenly Dao has predicted and intended.”

“In any case, since we’re talking about the Heavenly Dao today, let’s dive in even deeper.”

“My question is simple.”

“Do you think the Heavenly Dao is merciful or kind?”
