It took Lu Chen quite a while to calm himself down. Then, he carefully considered his words. In the end, he said to Perfected Lord Tianlan with some uncertainty and a bit of a probing tone, "Perhaps … you're having a good time recently? Do you feel very happy? "
Perfected Lord Tianlan was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that he had probably overreacted. This rebellious disciple of his did not seem to have any weird thoughts just now. Instead, he had asked the most ordinary question. He had thought too much …
The atmosphere was a little awkward. However, there was a saying that true experts did not have awkwardness. Even if they did, they could throw it to others!
Therefore, Perfected Lord Tianlan said very calmly, "Oh, that should be okay."
"Okay? You mean that you're having a good time and are very happy? "Lu Chen actually asked again.
Perfected Lord Tianlan was a little impatient. However, he always seemed to have a special endurance when facing Lu Chen. Therefore, he actually thought about it again. As a result, he actually thought about it for quite a while, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.
After a while, he frowned and said to Lu Chen seriously, "I didn't think so at first. However, now that you've asked me this question, I think I really don't feel that kind of especially comfortable and happy feeling. Perhaps … I'm just living my life peacefully."
He nodded and said to Lu Chen, "It seems that I'm not having a good time."
Lu Chen rolled his eyes. The indescribable anger that had been surging in his heart suddenly disappeared at this moment. He only felt a little helpless. Shaking his head, he sighed and said, "Forget it, I won't talk about it anymore. Why did you call me here?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan looked at him with interest. "Well, I did call you here because I have something important to tell you …"
Lu Chen's expression turned serious. He also sat up a little straighter and his expression became serious.
Unexpectedly, Perfected Lord Tianlan continued, "But let's put that aside first. Tell me, why did you suddenly come in and ask that question?"
Lu Chen was stunned. "Didn't you say that you had something important to tell me?"
"Yeah."
"If it's urgent, then why didn't you say it? You actually asked me that boring question just now?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan said disapprovingly, "No matter how important it is, I can handle it. What's there to be afraid of? Come, come, come. I see that you are a little strange today. You are very different from your usual self. This is very rare. Tell me about it. "Towards the end, he seemed to be overflowing with interest.
Looking at the damn baldy in front of him, Lu Chen suddenly had a strange feeling of absurdity. Could it be that this damn baldy really … also felt lonely?
Thinking back, he was usually so high and mighty that it was impossible for anyone to get close to him. Only he, who had always been rebellious, could casually say a few words to him.
Lu Chen didn't think about it anymore. After a moment of silence, he said, "It's nothing. I just feel that life has been boring recently. Sometimes, I don't even have someone to talk to. Maybe I feel lonely?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan glared at Lu Chen, causing Lu Chen to feel goosebumps. He could not help but ask angrily, "What are you staring at me for?"
Suddenly, Perfected Lord Tianlan burst into laughter and pointed at him. "To think that you would have such a melancholic moment. What a joke, what a joke!"
Lu Chen rolled his eyes. He couldn't be bothered to argue, so he didn't say a word.
Perfected Lord Tianlan laughed for a while before smiling at Lu Chen. "Don't talk nonsense. Back then, you hid in a fiend cult for 10 years. Back then, was there anyone who could tell you the truth? Didn't you still survive just like that?"
Lu Chen thought for a moment. "You're right."
Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled. "Right?"
Lu Chen replied, "It's probably because I've experienced it that I'm especially afraid of living those days again."
Perfected Lord Tianlan's smile faded slightly. A moment later, he asked softly, "Are you still blaming me?"
Lu Chen shook his head. "No, I'm just expressing my feelings. I don't dare to say it in front of others but I'm just complaining in front of you. Is that alright?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled. "It's fine, it's fine."
Lu Chen sighed. "These days are … unbearable. It's as though I'm always seeing people leaving and dying. By the way, damned baldy, you're often alone as well. Have you ever felt lonely? "
Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to reply, he froze all of a sudden and fell silent. For a moment, he was speechless.
Lu Chen sensed something and looked up in surprise. He saw that the smile on Perfected Lord Tianlan's face was gone and he gradually regained his original solemn expression. He was like a god and did not seem to have the emotions and desires of a human.
…
Was he lonely?
Apart from himself, no one knew the answer to that question because he was the only one who could experience that feeling.
Therefore, if Perfected Lord Tianlan did not say anything, Lu Chen would not understand how he felt. Even though he had many guesses from Perfected Lord Tianlan's expressions and actions, they were ultimately just guesses.
However, for some reason, Lu Chen suddenly felt that this damned baldy was more pleasing to the eye.
When Perfected Lord Tianlan retracted his smile and was solemn, he was rather dignified and everyone on Sky Dragon Mountain respected him. However, when he saw Lu Chen looking at him with a strange expression, he frowned.
Then, he suddenly said with some dissatisfaction, "What are you looking at with shifty eyes?"
Lu Chen said, "Is it wrong for me to look at you and listen to you?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan scoffed. "I'm a Soul Formation Perfected Lord. Is it wrong for me to say that you're wrong?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a while before nodding. "You're right, it's all my fault."
Perfected Lord Tianlan looked at him and the serious expression on his face suddenly disappeared. He laughed and slapped his knee. "You're quite sensible."
Lu Chen rolled his eyes, and then he sighed and said, "Alright, the two of us have some status on Heavenly Dragon Mountain at any rate. What exactly do you want to talk to me about after we've wasted so much time talking nonsense?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan scoffed. "You're the one who started all this nonsense. However, this is good. I'm in a good mood after talking about it. I feel like I'm living a happy life now."
Lu Chen was speechless. He thought that no one would expect such a Perfected Lord Tianlan to be like this. However, seeing that the damn baldy was just sitting there happily without any intention to continue talking, Lu Chen could only remind him to talk about business again.
Perfected Lord Tianlan replied with an "oh" as if he was reminded of that matter. He said casually, "I called you here to ask you, what have you been doing recently?"
Lu Chen said, "I didn't do much. The Devil Cult's side is basically fine. Only Elder Ghost escaped, so I helped Xue Ying chase after him …"
"Don't bother about that matter." Perfected Lord Tianlan suddenly interrupted him. "Don't interfere in this matter in the future. Leave it to Xue Ying."
Lu Chen was stunned. It was not that he was reluctant to give up that bit of power, but he was surprised that Perfected Lord Tianlan was so resolute. After a pause, he did not ask for the reason and agreed immediately. "Alright."
Perfected Lord Tianlan's expression relaxed when he saw Lu Chen's reaction. He smiled and nodded. "Alright, that's all. You can go now."
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. "That's all?"
"Yes, that's all. That's all. "
Lu Chen said, "… Alright, but I still have something to tell you."
