Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

One shouldn\'t look down on the place just because it was a village.

Sure. Most village homes look the same as they did ages ago, but they more or less killed like cottages to him.

And the beautiful low-hill grassy surroundings, as well as the drawing well at the side, only made the place look very peaceful.

Of course, many times in this village had electricity and flowing tap water in their homes.

But not all homes were equipped in this way, as some still liked to live as though they were in the roaring \'80s.

They were used to fetching water and doing things for themselves.

Then again, some homes had solar panels on their roofs too.

But no matter how much change had occurred around the place, the village still blended well with nature, with each person having enough yard space to garden, raise poultry and cook outdoors too.

And of course in this village, they didn\'t have house numbers. And their roads weren\'t even labelled as well.

If one wanted to get somewhere, they had to ask for directions and primarily refer to places or houses via family names.

Like saying one was going to Mother Xx\'s home or saying one was going to the old Fool\'s house.

Nicknames were what they used and understood here.

​ .

Dorian glanced at the site for a bit while waiting for the giant flowers to lower the duo.

The gentle giants did as instructed before suddenly implanting their roots into the soil and shrinking at an alarming speed.

(+0+)

Chiyou moistened her dry lips while still gaping at the magical sight before her

With a blank mind, she looked at the flowers that had now shrunk to the size of her big toe in a daze.

Of course, Dorian didn\'t kill them.

He just planted them alongside their roots back into the soil where they belonged.

They were a great help to him, so why should he just discard them after using them?

Additionally, people tend to forget that the very and even plants themselves were breathing.

Meaning they were alive in a different form as well.

So treat them all with respect.

Chiyou also glanced at the Flowers as if saying thank you.

She also noted the place, wanting to carry the flowers and plant in the garden after the Grandmaster left.

To her, the flowers were a reminder that she wasn\'t dreaming.

And since the Grandmaster himself used them, wasn\'t it a blessing for her to grow them?

Yup! She treated these flowers just as a fan would treat an item from their idols or favourite celebrities.

Dorian glanced at the scene deeply.

Already, he could feel the disturbance in the force.

"Lead the way."

"On it, Grandmaster!"

(*^*)

Like so, the trio stepped out of the bushes and headed towards Chiyou\'s home from the back.

Meanwhile, within the Chiyou\'s home, the gloomy air still prevailed, as three people worriedly peeked out their front window from time to time.

.

"Where is she? Husband. I\'m worried about her! What if on the way, something disastrous happened? She said her luck had been stolen. So won\'t she attract all negative things on the way instead?"

The 41-year-old man, who looked like he had aged by 10 years, could only pet his wife, trying to convince her that it was just in her mind... Of course, he was also trying to convince himself that nothing terrible would happen too.

"Now, now... Provided she still holds that paper; she will be alright. So she will be able to reach the Grandmaster safely."

The woman\'s tears leaked out as she gripped her husband\'s hands worriedly.

Will it really be alright?

Yesterday was the most devastating time for her.

After knowing or convincing herself to believe the hard facts before her, she felt very breathless, as she couldn\'t imagine what wrong she had done in this life to wanton someone\'s hatred for her family.

The hard knot constricted in her throat kept choking the words in her heart downwards when she thought of their current predicament.

Why? Why her family?

They had never done anything drastic or gone out of their way to harm anyone.

And if they did harm someone, she had no idea of it, meaning maybe they did so without knowing it.

So she was ready to beg for forgiveness in whatever way.

However, the problem didn\'t even stem from them offending anyone. No! That Grandmaster said that it came from pure jealousy.

Meaning some people just got jealous of the blessings they had received.

But how was that their fault?

For the first time in her life, she felt terrified and frightened of the world around her.

She was so shaken that she started wondering how she would ever go out to work again.

Being a village woman, she already felt very inferior in the world and had never overstretched her hands to the stars.

But even at that, some people still wanted to push them further into the ground.

And this thought alone kept her awake all night!

.

Seeing his wife tremble and look around frighteningly, the man could only pull her into his embrace and comfort her as much as he could.

Unlike his wife, he understood that he had to provide for the family. So going out was a must!

But now, he wouldn\'t navigate this world so blunt again.

As for the little boy of 3 years old, these past few weeks had truly opened his eyes to society\'s cruelty.

And now, he was far more mature than people his age.

Chindu looked at his parents and clenched his meaty fists hard.

So he secretly swore that if the Grandmaster could make things go back to the way they used to be, then he would pay him back 10 times in the future!

With different thoughts in their minds, all 3 stayed around the front corner of their home, waiting for Chiyou\'s arrival.

But suddenly, they heard a loud crack from the creaky door back of their home.

Like lightning, their bodies tensed up greatly.

Who?
